Downloaded this kernel and flashed and was able to boot the phone again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] owlmatt:
Same issues here. With the bare rom it would start and go black and with full rom it won't boot at all and now I can't get to Recovery either.

Will odin a stock rooted once this downloads. On my parents computer....so slow.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musikalharmony:
I'm having that problem too had to restore
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musikalharmony:
Flash this before the Rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
Flash after.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanmv213:
same issue. I will try with the Rouge stock kernel el13
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dw3bb10:
Flashed the stock kernel and all is good. Its nice to have my phone back lol

Both the links (regular and mirror) for the full ROM are showing "This file is either removed due to copyright claim or is deleted by the uploader."

Anyone have another mirror up?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kasper19:
downloaded 2.6 BARE ROM, flashed fine for me. I was already on Desperado/2.5.1a though before I flashed the update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] turtlenator694:
So flash the kernel provided in the last page and it will boot normally?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SooooneR:
No issues here...

On 2.5.1... booted to recovery... wiped cache... wiped D cache... installed 2.6... took awhile on boot... then it fired up and working awesome. Only thing I noticed after I have restarted again I am getting some force close on Google maps just on start up but runs fine when I open it. Not for sure what that's all about. Going to run fix permissions and see if that fixes it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chazglenn3:
Since Calkulin took down the links, I have to assume there is a problem. My phone has been acting weird since I installed 2.6 full...I'm hoping for an update soon.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 3volution:
2.6 doesn't seem near as smooth switching screens,anyone else?

Suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Wiped cache and dalvik and I'm not having any issues. I'm coming from 2.5.1 and the kernel it came with.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kenneu:
Nandroided back to stock until the issue is resolved... Thanks for jumping on it so quick, Calk.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] internetaffairs:
your attachment shows Android OS battery usage is very high like I said it is on ROMS newer than 2.0.1a. read my post again below.

2.0.1a uses a rogue kernel though and it has low Android OS battery usage. Any newer ROMS(haven't flashed 2.6) also use rogue kernels but has high battery usage by Android OS

not *****ing, but just something that I noticed. battery life was worse on 2.5.1 than it was on 2.0.1a. Respectively, it was like 9 hours vs 18 hours.

this has also been confirmed by other users in this thread.

That is one of the things my phone is doing...I'm sure a fix is in the works.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chazglenn3:
The main difference I see between the two versions of 2.6 full I tried is that Calkulin has gone back to the stock Rouge kernel in the latest hotfile version. I'm flashing Desperado now. Not that I'm saying that is all that changed...just what I have noticed. Plus it seems to work better than the previous megaupload version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
Yeah I did reupload a new zip that includes the stock kernel as the black screen issue happened last time I included the Desperado kernel also
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chazglenn3:
Thanks! Was that the only change? I never had the black screen problem...just some other anomalies like when touching an app in the app drawer, it would put a shortcut on the home screen. The latest is working fine and that is with the Desperado kernel installed after flashing it. However, I am still seeing the screen flip on shutdown...I thought that was part of the fix...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] azr6:
Desperado kernal made scrolling on my phone really bad. Went back to the stock EL kernal and it seems much better now.

any way you can add volume music controls skip songs using the volume buttons

I am not sure what you find unclear about that. if google wants someones number google can go ask them for it.

my position is non negotiable. I don't share "other" peoples private details without their permission. Period.

I have no problem sharing "MY" info with google. but that stops when its "other" people's info.

Hey Guys,

What in the heck is Download in the power menu now? Does this take you in to Odin mode? I hit it and it restarted the phone to a screen that says "Downloading... Do not turn off target !!". This Odin mode? -Grand
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nerys71:
That is ODIN I believe a "programming mode" you can put the phone in for flashing roms patches etc.. to the phone.

ie normally you get this by turning off the phone and holding volume down and power till it turns on. IE same screen.

this is just a way to "get this" without having to go through all that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MikeC84:
Yes that is odin mode. Just remove battery and you're good to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] grandmastem:
One more quick question... Is the battery saver script automatically activated? I am coming from 2.5.1 from last night and I flashed the 'stock' undervolt script via CWM. Since I just upgraded to 2.6 will the default saver script be set again, or will I still be on stock since I flashed that last night. -Grand

Thanks again to everyone answering questions :)

I flashed the bare ROM and it had the hot spot app in it.

hey Calkulin,

Just a request, could you create a cwm .zip to remove crt animation? I tried to flash aio no crt and it messed up. I know its dependent on framework....so i know why it f*ed up but I don't know how to modify the framework to remove it. thanks in advance if you find the time to do it.

Question, an I apologize if this has been asked before. I also own an Evo 3D and one of the ROMs that came out recently (Trinity) has the Sony Bravia Engine in it. According to this article, it's easily installable: http://www.techirks.com/?p=695

Scrolling, Rotation, and pretty much all animations are working fine. 2.6 with rogue stock EL13 Kernel. Only issue I have is sometimes when rotating the screen with the keyboard up the keyboard won't stay up. But after trying a different keyboard I've found that its that particular keyboard and has nothing to do with the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikel719:
Upgrade, i even tried flashing the stock repacked el13 kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
If it's worth it would be cool...I followed the instructions from the link you provided and can't really tell the difference, but maybe it's not working correctly either..lol.

I noticed when I type the code in the emulator, after I press enter after every line it doesn't add the one that says "read only file system", it just goes to the next line for more typing. I however notice that permissions were fixed in the two files after reboot. I wonder if there's a way of telling if it's running or not.

I'll wait for master Calk I guess...

Did you set back the file system after copying the files into the /etc/ folder?

sorry can't answer your question...but on a side note does your gf work at old navy? When i was at the checkout the cashier commented on my phone and then said she had the same phone as her and her bf rooted her phone....lol.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Not sure what you mean by set back the file system?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Double post, sorry.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
Back to read-only. To be able to copy the files into /etc/, you had to set it as R/W.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Oh, no I didn't. So you're saying that after successfully copying the files in /system/etc, before exiting I should had pressed from r/w to r/o?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
Yes sir. That's why you didn't get the "Read-Only File System" message. You're lucky, because on HTC phones, if you don't set it back before rebooting, Android won't boot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Thanks. What do you think it's the best way to redo everything? Go back to emulator since it's now in r/o? Funny, cause I never do that even when moving apks to system/app etc....always worked. I'll give it another shot. :)

EDIT: Got it working. I "think" I can tell a difference in contrast and overall picture quality. Thing is this phone has such a great display that it makes it hard to tell.

No doubt he is working on fixing the update so it works smoothly for all of us while at the same time getting ready for Christmas like the rest of us.

Battery Life

Anyone notice better battery life on the 1.1.5 version using Rogue Renegade Kernal? With Desparado and 2.5.1??? Also, I used to get deep sleep all the time with screen off, now it says holding at the 200hz area when screen is off! Goes from 100% battery down to 45% in like 6 hours!

Another issue I had was REPLYING TO EMAILS! Replying to emails in the defaut email app, will freeze your email, and sometimes your phone! Won't let you enter text into the email! Calkulin, can you look at this please? Also, with Desperado kernal, sometimes from sms pro app, the navigation buttons (home, back, search etc,) don't work, and I have to restart the phone! I think the most stable kernal right now for this rom is Renegade!

Did format all, flashed the new ROM, installed handcent only from market, tried to send a photo of larger than 2mb, got the usual notice about it having to reduce the size, I click ok and try to send. It doesn't send and the circle just keeps on spinning. I restore to 2.5.1 and no problem. I originally tried this with upgrade of the ROM with no luck so I wanted to troubleshoot. It comes down to the ROM. For some reason, handcent is unable to resize the photo with it. It just keeps trying to no avail. It sends a photo under 2mb without having to resize just fine.

Ok guys. I have created a recovery .zip file to get 75mV undervolting based off Calkulin's undervolting script. You can find it here:

http://www.multiupload.com/RTSUOPGSXG

So far it has been working great for me. I tried the 100mV undervolting and kept getting random shutdowns. 50mV was flawless for me, so I figured I'd try 75mV before going back to it.

I recommend this .zip to anyone that had no luck with the 100mV undervolting. If this also does not work, then revert back to the 50mV undervolt file found on the 2nd post.

PS - Thanks naerok for the tip!

just flashed about 15 min ago. Went to the online version of the market to restore my apps becuase of the comments of apps dissapearing and i wanted to avoid all trouble. The problem is now the online market doesnt have my phone registered. Its showing my old tmobile g2x as the phone the apps will be installed to. Any ideas as to why?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
These issues are restoring apk only. In fact it happens even restoring a single apk. I worked on this from 6pm through 230am. I tried every possible combination and could not avoid the issue of being stuck at the "SamsungGALAXY S" after reboot. Even ran the ROM without issue for an hour, rebooting at minute 61 only to be stuck again.

I know what I can do to get this ROM up and running, but I also know what I shouldn't have to do to get a ROM up and running.

Not a complaint by any stretch of the imagination. Merely an observation.

If calk wishes to investigate/resolve the issue, that's purely his prerogative. If not, then I get to decide if the other benefits of the ROM outweigh the inconvenience of not being able to use one of my most trusted apps. Either way, issue resolved.
