[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanmv213:
Thanks bro. Ill backup my current calk3.0 el29 and try this combo you suggested. I seem to remember it also being 2.8.1 with a different kernel, i just couldn't remember which one. I had my wife on it for a long time and she literally wouldn't recharge her phone for days. .mp3 she's recharging twice a day same usage. I always had to be latest and greatest so i was willing to sacrifice battery but ill be on travel for the next three months and was hoping to find that old combo that have me 6 hours on or 3 day standby. Thanks again for the suggestion
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Would the tweak scripts that work for 2.9 and 3.0 still be effective for 2.8.1? I'll give it a whirl too, and post my results if they are good!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
Listen to TDunham. Not every phone reacts the same to the same combo. I was just trying to remember the claims that I saw. I have always gotten great battery life on any calk rom that I have tried. Get a nice collection of modems and kernels on your SD. Try a set up out for several days before deciding whether to try a new one or not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jahjah440:
Do anyone know if I can upgrade the modem? I on el26 and wondering if I can upgrade to get better coverage
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
You can definitely change modems. Check out rwilco12's modem repository. Use the .zip format to flash it from cwm or the .tar format to flash it from pc Odin. I believe that there is a tutorial in the repository.

Edit: you can use gb or ics modems interchangeably, but you can't use jb modems on anything but jb.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
I don't know, but most of the tweaks are probably more kernel dependent than rom version dependent. Some of the 3.0 tweaks depend on a custom kernel. If it doesn't seem to work initially, switch kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanmv213:
I was just mainly looking for some suggestions from some long time users for some combos to try before I try and randomly go through ask the different versions with modem and kernel variables. I'm a long time calk user dating back to his kitchen in the old TP2 days on ppcgeeks. I think i ran each rom he released here and played around with all the modems and different kernels by team rouge for my S2 until he switched carriers. I just remember that one specific combo a couple versions back before 3.0 had an incredible standby and over 5 hours of screen on time versus the 3.5 hours I'm getting now after letting 3.0 settle in. I'm not complaining because this is nearly double the time I've been getting lately on any ICRom. So thanks for the suggestions and advise. I have some time today so Ill try that combo posted earlier and report back after several says of use.

You might want to check which account the Market is using if you are using more than one gmail account. People have had issues where it randomly changes accounts, which could be your issue (if more than one account). Otherwise, I've had no problems.

Not sure what kernel version of EXP you are using, but if it's 1.0.0.8 (and probably before that as well) your undervolting values are incorrect. On a stock 1.0.0.8 EXP kernel...

cat /sys/devices/system/cpu/cpu0/cpufreq/UV_mV_table
1600mhz: 1400 mV
1400mhz: 1250 mV
1200mhz: 1250 mV
1000mhz: 1175 mV
800mhz: 1050 mV
500mhz: 950 mV
200mhz: 950 mV

Your "back to stock" voltages...

1450 1350 1275 1175 1075 975 925

Your "-50mv" voltages...

1450 1350 1225 1125 1025 925 875

Your "-100mv" voltages...

1450 1300 1175 1075 975 875 800

So you didn't underclock O/C freqs (understandable, but you actually overvolted them [no reason, IMO]), but your stock voltages are higher than kernel default (except 200mhz). It may be better to just remove the init.d file for "back to stock" (That's what I do on my E3D ROM) Also, I have found the voltages in EXP kernel to be pretty spot on. @ -50mv from stock, I have heard that many phones become unstable, I don't know if anyone would be able to run -100mv at all. (I know I can't run -50mv on all freqs, I can fine tune some of the freqs via viperControl though)

Are you having this issue before or after you wiped with the zip file

Eidt: Also guys remember flashing mods over his rom may break some of the tweaks he has put into effect to make the rom run as smooth as it does
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikegoldnj:
Updated from 1.0 to 1.06 last night.

Prior to rooting and then flashing this rom, I had not experienced the LOS bug.

Now it has happened twice. Once last night on 1.0 and then again today on 1.06.

Had to reboot both times to get signal back.

Is the only way to avoid this going back to stock kernel and rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] axiapc:
Nope .. Zero problems at my end since I went from Starburst and or Viper to Calkulins.. Havent been back neither LoL
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
It's just bad luck man. I've personally never experienced LoS on this rom, and used to get it all of the time. It's not the ROM though, as I used to get it even before I was rooted and custom ROMd out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Thx, but that aside there's been a huge difference. Running it for 5 days and there's been a 20-30% overall difference, might be some other setting, but def better
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] journeyman73:
Yea other then that I'm completely satisfied with this ROM.

I agree with this 100% I use to get LoS maybe one time every 3 days but since the LoS Kernel was introduced I have yet to see one.

Can anyone tell me how to do a data reset on this phone or re-provision? Just updated to 1.1 and I have no data. Tried rebooting, updating profile, prl and nothing works. Keep getting an error code 67. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] akarol:
Open Terminal Emulator.

Type su.

Type getprop ril.MSL.

Make note of MSL code (6 digits).

Open Dialer.

Type ##72786#.

Type MSL code in diag, press OK.

Press YES.

Let phone reboot and reactivate itself (don't touch anything).

Let phone reboot itself again.

Done!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:
Ohh, I see it now. I origionally saw the rom, not the update.

He should change it to 1.06 - 1.1. makes me feel like im flashing from the wrong rom version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
Finally got this awesome ROM working for me

Completely fresh install of 1.1 and this time everything is working for me. All my apps restored w/data via Titanium Backup. All my games. All my previous settings from GO Launcher. Reboots no problem. Google Music streams perfectly, all restored ICS apps (G+, Market, Gmail) working great, Firefox starts right up and fast, AdobeAir working and Battery Repair app working. Those were all things that were plaguing me in the previous three versions (1.0, 1,05, 1.06.) I hadn't posted much about my issues because most people were not having any issues so obviously the ROM works. Logically, the issues had to be related to something that I was doing or failed to do. Don't know what it was, but when in doubt, start fresh :)

This is pretty common knowledge and there are dozens of people on this ROM or previous versions without any issues whatsoever, but just in case someone is having an issue and can use a fresh post of the method, here's every step I did in the exact order.

Wipe data/factory reset

Format System

Flash Format_All.zip

Flash Calkulin's E4GT v1.1.zip

Reboot

Let it sit for 15 or so minutes (let everything settle, sync, scan, etc.)

Signed into Market

Downloaded Titanium Backup

Restored all my desired apps via TB

Waited a few minutes

Went through and opened each of the apps that had previously given me fits

Rebooted

Tried all the apps again

Gave the UPS guy who happened to stop by a high five

Enjoying what I knew was an awesome ROM!

Again, this is just what I did and it worked for me (of course it is the exact same thing I did for 1.0 and had multiple issues so...) Anyway, for those with problems try it or don't, just happy to have this amazing ROM finally working the way I have become accustomed with a Calkulin ROM. YMMV :)

This rom is super fast. Looks like chef added red bull to the rom !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Just_s:
You would just delete the current version included in the ROM and replace with the market dl. Make sure to select TW or another launcher (i.e. GO) as your default before hand to avoid issues. Then you can select LPP as default after you install it from Market. If I could give you my pro license, I would as I moved to GO Ex, but looks like it is tied to my email even though I didn't buy it from the market.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toprock23:
Yea I just flash over it. For some reason wiping causes initial boot screen to freeze.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
lol calk has moved on long ago.. your better off asking someone else. if i'm not mistaken I saw in a thread somewhere there might be an app from the play store that can do this but you should try searching instead of asking first since you'd probably find it easier
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
I posted the link to the app earlier in this thread. I was going to respond with that information earlier, but I tried it and it didn't work for me on JB. The app is called Wake All. Your best option is to get your power button repaired. I think that I saw someone say that Sprint only charges $30 for that repair. (I do not know if that is correct, but it may be worth a shot). Good luck.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanmv213:
Thanks for the suggestion. This setup's battery life was worse that the ICS rom for me. I also had put my wife on this setup and noticed the same thing. The 3.0 Calk rom gave me the expected 3 to 3.5 hours of screen on time I expected when I left it months ago so I started playing with some of the combinations between rom, kernel, and modem for both of us. The EG30 gave my radio sleep of death so I changed it to FE22 and my wife El29 (which were both good for me in the past). My battery life was still bad so I started over and did a one click sfhub stock GB and after installing CWM I used the Calk wipe all and dropped the native 2.8.1 and left the kernel alone and now my battery in standby once again is not draining every time I turn it on. I'll screen shot the battery life and screen time on after a couple of cycles if it tips over 3.5 hours screen on time for others to try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Its funny how each phone differs! I'm running the 2.8.1/EG30modem/EL13repack combo right now and getting superb battery life. I use the heck out of my phone so I recharge every night anyway, but I'm having zero pocket drain and getting a few hours screen time on each charge. I'll post some screens too if I get a chance. Great feedback though, keep it coming people! That's what makes XDA the great forum it is. Cheers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Switched to 1.4.1 gunslinger for the last couple of charge cycles...seeing pretty good battery life, maybe better than the EL13 kernel. Still on the EG30 modem and 2.8.1 build. Also undervolted 100mv. Just figured I'd try something different because, well why not. Running smooth as butter also. I think the EG30 modem really is a good one, at least for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryanmv213:
I haven't changed anything from my last setup and pocket battery drain is almost non existent. When the screen is on though and I'm using the 4g then I'm getting about 3 to 3.5 hours of screen on time per charge. This modem has been great for me as well. This is a little better then calk 3.0 rom and not the magic rom I once had that gave me 5-6 hours of screen on time and a 2 day standby. Then again my phones over a year old meaning the battery maybe not what it used to be. I will try a different combo next week
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
I recently tried the fk23 build and loved it. But the battery life wasn't all that great.. I loaded this up yesterday with the stock el29 kernel and modem and so far its been running great.. I always have loved this rom but get sucked in to the bells and whistles of the other roms. But nothing compares to stability and battery life.. guess ill maybe wait for the ota or a custom jb kernel to pop up before I leave to the note 2. Thanks again

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
So I've been running 2.8.1 with the EG30 modem and Gunslinger kernel for several days now, battery life is great. Only issue I have, and it's sort of major to me, is random shut downs. Every once in a while it randomly reboots, but the majority of the time it completely powers off. I go to unlock my phone only to realize it's off. I would imagine the first recommendation would be to try a different kernel, but I have never had issues like this with Gunslinger in the past and I've run it with many GB roms, including this ROM (different versions though). I can't seem to get the same battery life with a later version of the ROM so I'd like to stick with 2.8.1 if possible. Any way to troubleshoot why it is shutting down? No undervolt scripts running right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
2.8.1 with gunslinger was the killer combo when I was running this. Odd that you are not undervolting as that's the first thing a would suspect
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Agreed, as soon as I started getting the problem I went to stock undervolt as that was my first thought. Still getting them several cycles later though. :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
I agree. Ever since I came off calks 3.0 I've been getting random reboots. Even when I come back to this rom it does the same thing. I might have to ho and get a new battery and see if that helps. Or a new case to protect the power button

Ok, so this probably isn't rom specific, but since I always seem to get the best advice around here...

I've been running the same flash for several months now (can't remember how long), so I may be re-flashing or trying a new ICS or JB before it's done, but I've been seeing some very strange behavior with regards to the battery. There have been a few cases recently where I'm guessing an app got hung or something but the battery drained way faster than normal. Then there was this morning.

Sitting at doc's office on about 96% charge, pull up Where's My Perry as I'm bored and still have a few levels to finish on that. In the middle of a level, the phone crashes. No error, no warning, it just powered off (now power off sequence either). I reboot the phone, and when it comes back up, I get a critical battery warning, show 2% on battery, and it powers itself down again. They called me back at that point, so I just left it off. Finished my appointment, drove home, realized I had left it powered down, so I rebooted. When it came back up, it showed 87% battery. I never put it on a charger or anything, it just came back up seemingly normal. I've seen a similar case one other time, but I was at about 30% battery and didn't think much off it thinking maybe the crash zapped it. This time was nearly a full charge.

So are there any good approaches to trying to rehab the battery a bit, or is that a slightly unrelated fluke to the crash itself? The two times it's happened was playing a game (maybe even the same one), so not sure if it's CPU draw that did it or what. Any advice appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] driftinganomaly:
The battery is probably going bad. Pull it out and put it on a flat surface. Try to spin it. If it spins at all (on either side), you need to replace it. It has been a problem coming up for a lot of people lately. It seems that the general concensus is to either get an oem battery or an anker brand battery.
