I've had this issue, even on stock, after I bought and inserted my microSD card. I think it's something with powering on the SD card which takes a while.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
So, I installed Tegrak to overclock my phone for fun, and to run a few test. I uninstalled it. Will the ROM go back to using the build in underclocking scrips?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
I use Tegrak. From my experience, Tegrak does not change the scripts; the scripts have priority and still work

Hi is there way to get a transparent weather i don like th e blue back ground cause i have a dark wallpaper..

Some how remove the back blue background of the weather app ?

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jxb25:
Is that a app from the market

Sent from my mistress
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chazglenn3:
Yes, there is an app in the Market called Battery Calibration. However, from what I have read on XDA, the E4GT doesn't respond to wiping the battery stats...so your mileage may vary...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geomatiq:
My battery sucks after the update..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] b0ricua:
OK, well glad it isn't just me. What's strange is that I noticed the reduction in signal immediately after flashing 2.7. I hadn't even upgraded to the EL26 modem at that point.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jxb25:
Yea I read that same post but I was just asking because I thought the same thing that calibrating the battery does nothing

Sent from my mistress
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
You can calibrate from CWM as well. I'd recommend doing it there via these steps:

1)Fully charge battery in wall socket

2)Use normally over the course of a day, then play games/stream music/etc. to kill the rest of the battery off at the end of the day UNTIL IT SHUTS DOWN ON IT'S OWN

3)Plug into wall socket and let charge WITH IT OFF all night. Should be to 100% easily by the time you need to get up (use a back up alarm of some kind if you use your phone as your alarm like I do - good to use just in case your phone messes up for some reason anyway

4)BOOT INTO CWM in the morning FIRST THING and then go to wipe>wipe battey stats>yes>go back>reboot

This has been my post-rom-flashing technique for sometime now and it has made a noticeable difference in my battery life. Not earth shattering, but at least 10-15% better. Also, once you do that with 2-3 days of normal usage with normal phone-on charging each night the battery stats will stabilize helping even a little bit more. The rapid drain while the phone is off that flashing causes is the culprit here, since the "battery meter" could be off by a lot afterwards. Hope this helps!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jxb25:
O OK gotcha I did the full let the phone die all the way down yesterday cut it off and let it charge all the way up and I unplugged it I guess I should let it drain again

Sent from my mistress
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
Yeah, the time that the wipe occurs is critical...once it's been drained from full to completely empty and shuts off, recharge it to 100% keeping it off then boot into cwm and wipe then reboot and you're done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ihateu:
After messing with this for a day I noticed that pics that I took with the front camera are the ones giving me error msg . the ones I take with the back camera work fine.I guess it has something to do with a small file ? But what's weird is if I crop those front pics just a tad smaller they will work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TonyTurboII:
You think using Titanium Backup to remove it would be fine? (Go Launcher)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kbtoiz:
Wow! I just did the same thing today and was asking the same. Cool!

Another thing I was wondering, can I flash rogue recovery and kernel and still have the Tegrak scripts? Since the rogue kernel says is stock. I did search here, but didnt find nothing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rpnunez:
Yes! This is how I did it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vMAC:
How do you check to verify that the scripts are actually working? Is there any definitive way?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] erik077:
I run into a 2 problems on this ROM (which I love)...

1. I set IceCream Sendwich keyboard as default in system / inputs and keyboards and each app is still use Swype. After that I went to each of them (msg, mail, browser etc) and set IceCream keyboard as default but after some times Swype is setting itself as default on one by one app at time. Anyone else have this problem?

For record, I hate swype.

2. Crazy calling. I had situation: when I tried to call person #2 I ended up receiving / dialing person #1, and when calling person #3 ending dialing person #2. Long story short: every time I tried to call one person (by going to addressbook and selecting person and #), phone acted same way as "redial" and called person which I called last instead of current. Tested this #20 times, every time ended up with same issue

Simple restart on phone fixed this

Anyone had this sittuations ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Yep. I did
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deusofhearts:
Liking the rom a lot. Is there a way to disable 270 degree rotation?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
You can uncheck autorotation in display settings
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deusofhearts:
That also disables 90 degree rotation. I want to keep 90 degree rotation enabled while disabling 270 degree rotation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] japper88:
This ROM is excellent, I am using overstew's ICS theme on top. The camera mods are awesome. Being able to take a picture while on a call is awesome. I can call people and take pictures while I am still on the phone and send it to them (I think if I have 4G/wifi on, not sure if we can do that with only 3G), I totally did that last night. New leaks seem to come everyday, EL29 now? By the time I get everything all set up there always seems to be a new leak!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vash469:
That's y I'm still on 2.6 but with eg26 modem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wiicked26:
How are you getting this?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gottria:
I noticed a big hit in battery life also. I restored back to 2.6 with Desperado but left the EL27 radio and my battery life is a lot better. I'll wait till the weekend and see what is being said about 29.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
I've noticed some kind of where bug where it seems that my phone goes from vibration to sound-on randomly. I dunno what triggers it, but I have to toggle vibration multiple times a day.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cheebahawk:
it's probably been discussed, but is there a slight lag on turning the phone off and on with 2.7? I didn't notice with 2.6 but likely due to the crt animation bring taken off? is there a fix to kill the lag?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Try taking out your SD card
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
is it really short lag? my first guess would be its normal and you just did not notice it because the animation "consumed" the time invovled??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cheebahawk:
That's my guess too. Just a little annoying. I'd rather have the animation to cover it. But can live with it.

To the poster above, what does removing the sd card have with screen lag and animation?

It is about two to the second delay tho.. Kind of annoying
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
I've noticed lag with screen wake while my SD card is inserted
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vegasden:
That's SOP with this phone.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darkne0:
So I think I've had this phone for too long running the Stock rom and I think it's time for flash this Rom. I have a few questions though: I'm on the latest Stock rom (EK020), do I need to flash any modem packs after I flash Calkulin's Rom? Also I see the this rom is modded to run 5x5 items in the dock, that's just optional correct? I really like the uncluttered 4 items in the dock, and I don't want that to be a deal breaker. Thanks :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] b0ricua:
You don't need to flash any modem packs after you flash. You can remain on the EK02 modem if you'd like.

The dock is not optional on the touchwiz launcher, although he includes the Go Launcher Ex which I believe has 4 icons so you have the option of running that instead. Someone please correct me if I'm wrong on the icon count on touchwiz.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asbjörn:
Yep, you're right. The ADW EX launcher has a 4x4 app drawer; and that's the only way to have that on Caulk's rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ihateu:
Can anybody confirm in Google maps that it updated your location? I notice that it doesn't update your location while using the mobile network only.Drove home from school,it says im on the other side of town.

Rebooted phone it says i'm home(as it should) just visited parents, home again it still says i'm in there neighborhood... GPS does give accurate readings though. Just not mobile network.my location is enabled in google maps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darkne0:
Just flashed and yeah I can edit the dock to just 4, but the drawer is 5x5...oh well Im happy :D

Would there be any problems flashing Rogue *Stock EL29* v1.1.4 along with this ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
None that I have encountered and it was also said in that thread it was fine. One user said he seemed to like keeping the El26 kernel and 29 modem. Personally it almost seems like the 26 modem was better for me but the network could just be having a bad day.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Isriam:
This is a known bug and is posted in the Q forum. Use softlocker free to correct it if you don't mind battery issues.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brushrop03:
Mine also seems fairly high. I went back to 2.0.1 last night just to see if it's the rom or rogue app. Betterbatterstats don't seem to point to any particular app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killajl:
You might have to go into settings and check "Root Explorer" and "Mount File System". I think that's what I did once when I lost root access.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dude2k5:
Do you guys have Tegrak installed? I think that was a huge benefit for my phone, use to get 8-12 hours, just like you, then after Tegrak and loading the profile I get like 20-30 hours now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] akarol:
I obviously tried that numerous time. That's how you enable root abilities on ES to begin with...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smccall:
I can say the same thing tegrak is what you want to use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
You would have to modify the framework files to disable that, so it's no easy task

Or think it will be okay? A bit lazy wipe data/reinstall, but will if I must :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] z31k:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kasper19:
As Calk has said before, unless he states otherwise, you do not need to do a full wipe when upgrading from a previous version of his rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
nandroid, back up apps with TB then wipe cache and dalvlik and then flash if any issues do a full wipe and re-install rom... That right there is the way to go my friend. People always ask about wipes but its a crap shoot when flashing sometimes it makes a difference and sometimes it don't...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Foulwx:

Is there a way to remove the rotation animations and keep the screen off animation? I only rotate my phone to watch movies, and I miss the CRT off animation, but the combo of the two was forcing my pattern lock to invert and I need that to get into my phone obviously

Tried new v2.8 it but sits on Galaxy S II screen for a long time. Did it twice and same results. So back on 2.7..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kilthro:
The regular has apps and go launcher included ect.

The bare is only the bare system and nothing extra added. So if you want to customize and do everything yourself and not have anything else installed go with the bare. Otherwise you can go with the other that does include apps ect.

Should I flash the modem before or after flashing the rom? Or is flashing the rom change the modem on its own? Thanks

With Tegrak I believe Calk has one built in already. So load the app, then load profile, select the one and sit for a few seconds while it does it

I installed version 2.8 on top of 2.7 and im stuck on the Samsung Galaxy II screen. What should I do to resolve this issue? Thanks. I downloaded the 2.8 version like an hour ago.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
Maybe it was a bad flash, have you tried reflashing? Maybe you had a bad download, try downloading the file again and reflash. Also, try reflashing just a kernel to see if you can get your phone to boot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick4mitch:
From my pasts experiences what you should do right after flashing the new rom is to re-flash a Kernel, while been in the same recovery. Do not flash a rom and reboot, that might leave you hanging at the boot screen, I hope this helps. Thanks Calkulin for this wonderful rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] akarol:
That's means it is built on the EL29 base, it does not include the modem. He wouldn't provide the link otherwise.

Just a heads-up to everyone: /system/app/MobileTrackingEngineTwo.apk is picked up by ESET NOD32 as a threat ("potentially unsafe application").

Also, thank you Calkulin for removing the spaces and special characters from the ro.build.display.id.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JimSmith94:
I have flashed Calkulin's ROMs many times before with no problems until now. My checksum for 2.8 matches what Calkulin posted in the OP, so my download is okay.

I've tried installing 2.8 three times, but still get stuck at the black Samsung Galaxy II screen. I just tried installing three different Rogue kernels in the same recovery session, and get this error on each:

file_getprop: failed to stat "/system/build.prop": No such file or directory

I can restore my nandroid of 2.7, which replaces the kernel back to the previous EL26 kernel. What should I do now?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Judah001:
Did you use the modified wipe zip prior to the install? I had a similar issue on the previous version and re downloaded the file and worked no problem. I just converted over from Blazer following the same instruction.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] distantneighbor:
you confirmed his answer when he wrote "according to who?"

notice the words "based on new EL29 build"? You still have to flash the EL29 modem.

the only thing included in Calkulin's DL here is his ROM, which does include the EL29 kernel (which is pretty standard with most ROMs that are available to include a kernel), modem is a different animal and must be flashed seperate

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AJordanWise:
As far as I know, you should recalibrate anytime you change your kernel. Since most ROM's include a kernel when flashing, you should recalibrate things.

And... Modems are independent of everything else so you can test different modems and see what works best for you and your phone.
