How do i delete/get rid of the battery script? Even thoughi use Tegrak to controle my CPU the battery saver script keeps taking over. Can i just delete the whole script? Dont tell me that when u install a custom CPU app that caulkins will disable its self cause its not dissabling its self.

i wont but it does.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
"Easily customizable if you use a text editor(scripts located in /system/etc/init.d)"

Just delete that folder. or just the cpu scripts if u wanna keep the undervolts.

Just an FYI, here is the excerpt from the script that turns it off if you have any of the four mentioned apps installed:

if [ -e $ANDROID_OC ]; then

echo "Android Overclock is installed, IGNORING Screen State Scaling script"

elif [ -e $OC_WIDGET ]; then

echo "Overclock Widget is installed, IGNORING Screen State Scaling script"

elif [ -e $QUICKCLOCK ]; then

echo "QuickClock Advanced Overclock is installed, IGNORING Screen State Scaling script"

elif [ -e $SETCPU ]; then

echo "SetCPU is installed, IGNORING Screen State Scaling script"

Love your ROM! It would be awesome if we could get kernel support for transparent proxy on Orbot though. Currently I always get "Warning - error starting transparent proxying."

Keep up the good work!

2.8.1 fixed a bug that's been hunting me since I got this phone. PlayerPro would not stop playback when ejecting headphones but now it's working perfect!

Now, another problem arose. Long-pressing the volume buttons skips songs in PlayerPro but does not with PowerAmp. Why?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NewYorkLaw:
That makes two of us! What do you ride, I'm on a Suzuki Hayabusa. With my electric gloves, I can (barely) hold down the volume rocker to change songs, but before this added feature, I was stuck listening to whatever came on Pandora!

I see the mentioning of EL13 to help reduce battery drain, but is it referring to the modem, kernel, or both?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tshile:
just wanted to post i'm hooked on this rom.

I keep trying other roms to see if I'll like them (nandroid backup/restores makes it so easy its hard not to just randomly try other setups)

but i keep coming back to this one... there's always at least one thing (often more) that i wind up missing from this ROM and have to go back.

so good job. i can't find a more complete ROM. thanks for all the hard work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yinyang37:
I love this Rom!! Solved my LOS issues and has great speed.

I still have terrible wifi signal in my home and other places where it should be stronger . I've tried a few wifi fixer apps from the market w/o success. Any ideas? thanks in advance!

Changing the Notification Font

I have search this entire forum to find an answer but didn't see it. There are apps that dont use a white font for notifications such as Winamp, MSNBC and CNN. It makes it extremely difficult to read if they're the same color as the notification bar. Is there any tweaking or customizing program that will force apps to make the notification font white. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
Undervolting and cpu scripts = 2 totally different things. Flashing that zip will return the cpu VOLTAGE back to stock. It will not affect the battery saving script that governs the cpu SPEED.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vMAC:
Still haven't seen anything on this? Is there a way to check to see if the script is running?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] steelersmb:
Are you using the Kernel with the EL29 modem or the 13 modem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
Use any app that shows you how long the cpu has spent in each step, like cpu spy. The script clocks down to 1ghz below 85% battery remaining.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
probably the easiest way is to download a cpu monitor app and see if the speed matches the assigned values at the specific battery ranges:

Preset profiles are:

1.2GHz - 100-85%

1.0GHz - 84-36%

800MHz - 35-0%

However, as long as you don't have SetCPU, Overclock Widget, Android Overclock or QuickClock Advanced Overclock installed, the script will run!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SRobby:
FYI: since 2.5 i had been strictly upgrading, instead of wiping and starting fresh. I had noticed crappy battery usage more the past month or so. When going to 2.8 i decided to do a full wipe "data format/cache/dalvik", and the difference is ridiculous. I was getting battery drain when the screen was off, even though the system was going into deep sleep. Yesterday was my best day, at around 11:30, when i was going to bed i had to decide whether or not to even put it on the charger since i was still at 77%. I did not use my phone alot, but compared to every other day since a full wipe its just ridiculous.

Great job Calk.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:
I try to not get deatracted by total charge time. screen on time, or how much you use the phone is whats really important. I got 48 hours out of a charge last week, but with minimal use.

This was my yesterdays result. As you can see its pretty moderate use and why I was saying the other guys didnt look like it had 4 hours of screen on time. Either way im sulper happy, esp comimg from the ****ty evo 3D.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
That's damn good!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
+1 on that, it is damn good. Honestly I like to know with my typical daily usage my phone can last me till the whole day. So if I pull my phone off the charger by 6:30 and then put it back on the charger by 11:00 and still have life left plus I used it the way I use it I am happy.

As of right now this phone gives me that and especially with this rom. I actually got my OG Evo to that point prior to me switching to E4GT. We all have different needs and for me it works... Glad to see your getting 4hrs plus on your end..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
That's impressive jermzz. 4 hours 20 mins of screen on time wow. Do you use auto brightness? If not, what is your brightness slider set to?

data roam

I am having a problem with getting a data connection while roaming. I get a voice signal and can text but I when I try to use data it shows no data connection while roaming.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bobbywatts:
Don't know i you tried or not ( but I haven't had that problem ) go into

Setting> Wireless and network> Roaming> Roaming setting

and make sure there all checked, so when your roaming you can still use data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
I'm having an issue with not receiving push notifications on some apps... Mainly facebook, twitter and facebook messenger. Anyone else having this issue?

I tried doing a fresh install of the ROM to see if it was any of my settings but the issues persist.

Could be your settings, do you have background data enabled (accounts & sync)? The EG12 radio has also been reported to have issues while sleeping too.

Can't run Record My Call and I must be able to do that...

So anyone have the answer as to why some games/apps instantly FC even after freshly being DL'ed from the Market?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I had that problem too, I ran the wipe all script twice and cleared the dalvik cache, reinstalled the ROM now everything is gravy.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:
Thanks guys. Im defiantly happy with these results. The reason ive been testing is because I just bought this from amazon.

http://www.amazon.com/gp/aw/d/B005Z3B1EQ/ref=mp_s_a_1?qid=1320702898&sr=8-1

Good deal for 2 x 2000 mah batteries. Gonna test with them and see if theyre truely better then the stock ones, then review in the accessory forum. My goal is 6 hours screen on time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:
Yeah I	auto brightness, calkulin changed it in his rom for better battery life. I also have battery saver set to come on at 70 percent, and always run 800 mhz. but I also kill all my apps, background data and clear ram before the phone sits for any length of time.

I keep trying other's ROMs, but once the "gee wiz" factor is gone, I always come home to Caulkin's work because that is just what it does....WORK!!!

On a side note, I upgraded from my EVO to the EG4T because I wanted the latest and greatest (don't we all?) and now...I just finished updating my old Evo (my wife's phone now) to ICS 4.0.3 and it is working great!

Damn you Samsung for making all of us wait around for ICS source code while HTC users are already running a stable ICS........color me pissed and envious:mad:

Question: My phone keeps saying "new message from _____" via voice over the speaker when I get a text? I have disabled all the add-ons I can find that I might have installed. I have also done searches for this, but to no avail.

The reason I am posting this hear is I am wondering if it is part of this ROM to announce text senders via voice?

Use the 'ps' or 'pgrep' busybox builtins.

Using ps with the wide option .. if it's running script will look like:

~ # ps w

...

2676 root 820 S {3cpufreq_screen} /system/bin/sh /system/etc/init.d/3cpufreq_screenstate_scaling

or use pgrep, which will tell you the PID if it's running, and blank if not:

~ # pgrep -f 3cpufreq

Yes start tegrak and see if the max speed changes as the battery level drops. If the max speed changes the script us working. One time i had the script nit working.

I don't know what it is with this ROM but my battery life has gone from bad to abysmal. After 10 minutes I'll go down from 100 to 90, doing nothing but texting. I even installed SetCPU for screen-off profile (I know there's already a battery script). Any ideas? Nothing wakelocking my phone as far as I know.

Try Calibrating your battery with this app from the Market. Also, what

Kernel /Modem combo are you using? Some people are reporting terrible battery drain with both the EL26 & EL29 combo
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
First I've heard of that one. I get great battery life. Issue with your battery maybe?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iahk:
I actually like that feature as this is my first touchwiz phone. :) But if you want to shut it off, goto settings, voice input and output, text to speech settings, and turn off driving mode. Or if you just want to keep specific notifications on and off, goto the driving mode settings and you can control that.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
EL26 with 2.8.1. So I should go back to EL13 then? I'm running out of ideas. I love the phone, but battery life is horrible. Everyone I know with a GSII (especially the AT&T version, not Skyrocket) keeps bragging about how they can go a whole day or more on a single charge, which I know is true because the phone is capable of it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Sorry you're having these problems, but either your battery is shot or you're doing something wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] journeyman73:
Yea, the EL13 Modem & Kernel seems to provide the best battery life for me as well so it wouldn't hurt to try. The calibration app seems to slow down the battery drain as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Haven't had luck over various phones with that app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
I usually calibrate the battery manually through recovery. On my Evo 4G it used to help, same on the 3D, but not at all on my GSII. I'll try flashing the EL13 modem and kernel over 2.8.1. Hopefully it heavily reduces the battery drain.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
Alright ill delete it that way. I have used a txt editor to edit the PU speed at 1.2-1-. 8 cpu speeds but it wont take into effect. Tegrak app isnt listed as one of those 3 so that muzt be why its not dissabling its self. Ill make a backup before i delete the script

I am getting 17 hours so i guess i am happy for now...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vMAC:
Thanks, this is what I was looking for. I was able to do it by hooking up to adb and doing a logcat. In that logcat look for max cpu or max/min in the logs. Those are echoes from the script.

I see a lot of recommendations of doing battery calibration. Obviously most of you missed this "mythbuster" post by a member of the Google development team:

https://plus.google.com/u/0/105051985738280261832/posts/FV3LVtdVxPT

Basically calibrating is a myth.

.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pjjohn73:
It does not "improve" battery, but it does correct incorrect reading from flashing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yup. Try using that calibration app, calibrate at 100%, power down phone and charge to full. Then unplug and power on. Wait about 10 min, plug back in and calibrate when it hits 100% again. It straightened out any oddities with sudden drops or gaps in the graph and really seemed ROM help

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darren.wlsn1:
dont see what either would have to do with titanium.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Technically its OK to mix and match to find what works best for you but Decad3nce told me its generally best to have things match based on possible intent changes but these updates (since EL13) seem like little changes so what can it hurt?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Thanks for the input bro. All I can do is give it a shot and see how it reacts...after a nandroid of course.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sec1rxg:
you can use whatever kernel/modem combo you think works for your needs. Im running 2.8 with eg30 modem and eg30 kernel. Ive had some GPS issues that i resolved going this route. My battery life is ok so far, 15 hrs with 10% left
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
EG30 was actually pretty good for me...I have all the modems in my PC so I'll test each one for a day or so and see which one suits me best.

Just a question about the Sprint Hotspot app.

If I use this app for tethering, will I get charged for it? Will Sprint have a direct line to my usage from this app?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] j_shelton1988:
No, you can use this all you want and Sprint will not charge you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AzumaK:
Second on this question, I have tried Sprint Hotspot and Extended Controls (not expecting it to work). Sprint Hotspot says 'error' even though the AndroidAP comes up, it doesn't work. I'm pretty sure there is a better tethering app for Samsung phones, but I can't remember it from when I rooted a friend's original Epic a year ago...

However, I can give some advice on Sprint and tethering. They basically don't know if you're tetheting and if they do they don't care, as long as its not several gigabytes of -roaming- data. I've only ever heard of people getting service cancelled by Sprint because of excessive roaming data, tethering or not isn't the issue it seems. On Verizon, the second I flipped the standard wireless tether app on my Vzw Xperia Play, hell figuratively broke loose and I never attempted it again, lol. Verizon is a whole different game!

If I can find that app I'll edit my post but I'm gonna crash soon...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Product F(RED):
I've gotten a letter in the mail warning me not to roam so much (although they didn't specify if it was data or not, I never roam on data, only for calls and texts since 1x is useless.). I use(d) Roam Control inside my house on my Evo and Evo 3D since my house gets ****ty Sprint signal (only inside). On my Epic 4G Touch, I get much better signal though, so I don't really need it.

I used to work at Sprint, and the unwritten rule, as far as calls go, is that if, each month for 3 consecutive months, more than half the minutes you use are roaming minutes, you can expecting a warning. For data, use common sense. Texts, I don't think matter much, but don't quote me on that.

And also, Sprint told me that texting to and from Canada on your Sprint phone is considered domestic, which really surprised me, because the last time I traveled to Canada, I added the reduced roaming rate plan which comes with free unlimited texting, and no one told me it was already free until the second time.

In terms of pricing, leniency, and morals, Sprint is the best. If you want strong signal reliability, at the price of your wallet, go to Verizon. My only gripe is that I hate CDMA and wish all networks were GSM, but that's never gonna happen. I miss being able to use whatever phone I wanted when I was on AT&T and T-Mobile.
