Yeah, but when is he going to post it? (sorry, couldn't resist)

Ok, now for the real question. After going on a single rom on my Touch Pro (one of Calk's last on that I believe) for nearly 14 months (necessity due to work), I had planned on using the time before he drops 2.9 to do some learnin's as this is my first Android. But... the flashing gene which had laid dormant for those past months has re-awakened, and I dropped 2.8.1 on there yesterday. I know this has already come up and answered in the thread, but I can't remember where and being new to android can't remember the terminology to search.

How do you modify the quick buttons (Phone, Contacts, Messaging Apps) across the bottom? Also, are there limits to what can go there, or can it be any app? I know it can support 5, and had 5 after flashing, but Titanium pulled my settings in and set it back to 4.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Envynet:
Open app drawer hit menu, edit it will as you to switch hit switch mode. Then you can drag them down and change them.

Loving this rom however my 4g signal seems to go to sleep when not in use. I know its a battery saver but I Need constant data on. Any ideas on how to adjust this? Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmchssc:
Using the ##DATA# menu through the dialer, you can change the WiMax sleep timeout to a custom value. You will need your MSL, but that's easy to get with root. I don't remember the exact method because I did it a while ago, but it takes less than 5 minutes. Just use search.

Once you have your MSL, press ##DATA# in the default dialer. In the menu that pops up, press view, then WiMax settings (or similar). Enter your MSL and select OK. Then, go to Extensions and find the option that sounds most like Sleep Timeout. I don't remember it exactly. IIRC, the default value is 10. Change it to something like 5000. That would prevent 4G from sleeping unless 5000 seconds went by without a single data transmission.

Time in status bar

Anyone know of a simple way to remove the time from the status bar in this rom. I love using rom toolbox and customizing the status bar but do not seam to be able to find a way of removing the time. Since the time is on my lock screen, the status bar is redundant (plus I wear a watch). Any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aiverson23:
Sticky Home button

I know this will prolly be irrelevant when 2.9 comes out. But is anyone else having trouble with their home button sticking when they wake their phone sometimes. Like it will stick and bring up the recent apps pop up without me ever touching the home key and if I try to turn off the screen it will take a screenshot (obviously) to get it to stop I just go into the task manager or do anything on my screen and everything goes back to normal. Its really intermittent and only a slight pain.

Its been going on for a little while but it may be MI Locker that I installed. Its not a huge deal just wondering if anyone else had this problem. I also have ICS theme on it if that matters.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
Launcher Pro gives you the option to totally remove the status bar

Is there a way to get the 1x notification off and get the 3g notification back
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KBizzle:
What do you mean?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
just curious, why would you want to?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sc00basteve:
If all you are seeing is 1X, then I suggest updating your profile.

I find that showing me if I'm in 2G or 3G makes me less likely to throw it (or really, just leave it alone and head for a computer). If it gets stuck in 1X, I usually go hit Airplane mode for a few seconds, and then re-enable. Then it's fine and I don't sit there waiting forever.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I may be mistaken but I believe I read somewhere that home screen lock apps have known issues with this ROM and are not recommended. Anyone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wrceuro:
I have awesome screen locks from go launcher. Works great :)

I really like the battery life with the new ROM 2.9 joking
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
Personally, i found GoLocker to be laggy and bugf*cked, uninstalled that junk quick.

But, Widgetlocker works like a dream, and yes, with this ROM. :)

Sent from my calculator watch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kilthro:
+1 for widget locker. It works great on this rom. I have been using it since day one with no issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rondietz1:
I prefer GoLauncher and I want to keep the status bar, I just want to remove the time from it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Its all about trial and error. Go Locker works perfectly for me on strongsteve's ROM but not so well on this ROM. Could be the baked in undervolt? Widgetlocker is great though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kilthro:
Not sure. It worked for me with the undervolt but I havent had the undervolt in a while. I went back to stock voltage so that may contribute a difference.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I am running this currently on a fresh Odin and flash and reinstalled all my apps manually instead of with TiBa. And widget locker has not given me any issues at all. I am undervolting with Tegrak and have removed the undervolt and CPU scaling scripts and am using the missed it widget on widget locker. And it is still as smooth as it can be.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asbjörn:
Go Locker is running excellently for me on this rom. I guess every phone is different, like a fingerprint.

Mi nuh tek intimidation...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Definitely a Samsung trademark ...ask any OG Epic person. When the first kernel with undervolt came out we went nuts. We never found an undervolt set that worked on everyone's phones. Some couldn't even undervolt-25...I was one of them. Edit..I could overclock like no other though. The problem wasn't undervolting the middle states it was trying to undervolt 100,200 or the overclocked 1300 or 1400
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalcrash:
Lock bot works incredible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drmacinyasha:
Dunno if anyone ever made one, but here's the EG30 NetworkLocation.apk as a flashable ZIP:

http://goo-inside.me/epic4gtouch/eg30-networklocation-signed.zip

Just deletes /system/app/NetworkLocation.zip, wipes out /data/data/com.google.android.location, then extracts the EG30 APK to /system/app. Enjoy!

i disabled my screen lock. where the power button is located i have no need for one. i never power on my device in my pocket.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
Has anyone tried both this and Blazer's? I know Blazer ROM has many of the same features and even builds off of this, but now I'm considering switch to Calk because I want to try something new that gives me better battery life. Any opinions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
BlazerRom fans make some pretty wild batt claims, say that it beats Calkins hands down...

Have not tried blazer yet, but I will say that the first day on Calk batt life was... bad. But weirdly, on the second day and everybody since, I get EXCELLENT life.

Not sure I understand what you mean by this. :confused:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Playya, sorry bro...I posted my last post before reading a little more. My bad.

But I did see a few posts back that if we don't set a 'default Launcher' prior to reboot or going into recovery, it will cause that weird bootloop. I must say that I did not set a default launcher as I like to play around with different launchers. I will set a launcher by default and stay with this ROM. So smooth and quick.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
gotten between 10-13 hours of battery, with fairly light use. no sync, low brightness, underclock etc. i work retail so its only every now and then i get a chance to use it. love the rom, expecting it to get better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
Yeah I'm running ADW EX without any issues. I did not restore from TB though, I just re-downloaded from the market and restored my back up from the app. I didn't delete LP or TW though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
no prob man... just trying to help out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
I have not tried a different kernel yet.

Thanks for the advice man, I'll give that a try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mb3:
I like lots about this ROM but am changing the kernel. Used stock kernel prior and never had experienced loss of service requiring reboot. Since flashing have had it twice daily. Back to stock kernel, I guess.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ElAguila:
It happened to me when I tried to use the SPB Shell 3D launcher and when I tried to use the ADW Ex launcher. With each of these I set them as the default. Since others are able to use the same launcher, I am stumped as to the cause. I can get back up without doing a restore by going into recovery menu and mounting the system partition. I then use an to remove the other launcher and it runs fine after that.

Push notifications are not working every now and then for apps like gmail.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
v1.05 that is uploading now includes the hotspot hack, so download that if you want to use the Sprint hotspot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wytecaztle:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
SetCPU and others use a lot more resources than the script is the main difference.

Like it was mentioned before, most camera sounds were removed, so I added that to the description but I still haven't found a proximity sensor tweak that works, so if you know of one, point me to it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
I have no issues with any of my push notifications, exchange, gmail, etc, so it might be something in your setup causing it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
If I remember correctly, the overscroll mod is in the framework.jar, so probably the one your using has that mod in it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jaysmi32:
Calkulin, anyway u can post how to adjust your oc script? Also from your sig I see a srt4, I had one too also went to the srt4 dodge meet in Garden Grove, just thought I would throw that out here!

AWESOME ROM CAULK!

I'm getting twice the battery life I was before... at least!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
I've changed nothing. Formatted system, installed ROM. Everything works fine but I think it's my data that's giving a delay. Do you have a fix for n64oid?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hypersonicx:
Hey Calkulin where you able to look into why some apps / games wouldnt boot, that did boot on other roms?

I did see the market fix posted that did work and battery life is excellent but wont do any good if certain / random apps wont boot up.

The 2 I noticed first hand were N64oid / Firefox Browser.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blink1022:
Yes!, can anyone tell me if that issue is resolved in V1.05??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chudddddd:
link for the update from 1.0 to v1.5 down?

edit: works now! thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
Also Caulk can you confirm if using the AIO mod no ciq if it breaks any of your tweaks? I like using the stock version for hotspot and not that you have added it I wonder if you have also corrected the 4G tethering in it as well. Just a couple questions. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
... because of where the power button is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
right. That's all it needed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asbjörn:
That's another reason why I don't take review comments as gospel. I try it all for myself. So far, just about every mod or hack works on my phone... thank god.

What's a good android cleanup utility to use? The only ones I can seem to find do cache, history etc. I want to clear out everything possible left behind/orphaned by installing and removing programs. I already did what I had to do with Titanium.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
SD maid may help clean up some empty folders left behind if I am on the same page as you here. It won't get everything but it will help a bit.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
SD Maid does fit the bill. I didn't want something that just clears cache and history and logs. The 'duplicates' category in SD Maid I wasn't so sure about so I left it alone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asbjörn:
Like JohnCorleone said, sdmaid is great for that. It will get rid of old unused corpses left behind after all the modding and hacking. However, U'll need to purchase the full version in order to completely clean up your phone.

Is there a way to backup just the android OS settings themselves? I use Titanium for the apps but lets say I want to do a fresh install of this ROM or revert to a bare version and don't want to remember the multitude of OS setting changes that need to be done as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TonyTurboII:
I'm getting a couple goofy issues, and since I seem to screw up whenever I use TB, what is the best option in TB to backup/restore?

Is it backup all user apps + system data, then restore missing apps with data?

I'm going to do a full wipe and reinstall.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iamsavedme30:
So this is the first rom I have flashed and it's wonderful and super fast.

I was wondering if their was a way to get the original ringtones and notification sounds back. Otherwise I love how snappy everything is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Moebius01:
Ok, one more thing I have to learn after going to a rom. What is needed to enable voice dialing via bluetooth? While I definitely had some gripes about it, the samsung talk/vlingo thing worked pretty well for me. Push the button on the headset, get the prompt, and either make a call or dictate a text message (the latter being sketchy, but good for basic).

I went ahead and downloaded the plain version of Vlingo from the market to try out, but can't figure out how to get it to activate on press of the headset button (voyager pro in this case). Is that possible, or is something else needed to do the trick?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Quocstazz:
LOL just woke up. Saw 29 in el29 as 2.9 rushed to computer to download but found out I misread it lol...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iamsavedme30:
I would have done the same thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asbjörn:
I don't know of a way to back up the OS settings themselves but I can recommend a way to flash roms without deleting the current settings you have. Instead of wiping data or even flashing Calk's format all, I have been flashing Calk's MODIFIED format all. It wipes all necessary files but completely leaves app data and settings intact. If you want it, you can find the downloadable zip in PhantomHacker's Blazer Rom OP or get it here.

Hmmm...there may be some voice related apps in the "removed apps" folder that would get that going for you. I believe Voice Search and the baked in ones that may be removed to improve battery life. Some of those run on their own in the background
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I was wondering what the modified Format All was for. Thanks for the link.

I'll give it a try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SSaxman:
Samsung keyed the headset to their version of Vlingo (VoiceToGo.apk). You can get it from the removed apps folder in the OP. There's a certain way you have to install it, though. I did a step by step on it further back in this thread. Just do a search for VoiceToGo.apk in this thread and you should find it. If you can't, let me know and I'll post a link when I get to a computer.

Battery life in poor service areas.

Currently I'm running the latest release of Unnamed ROM with the matching el13 rogue kernel and el13 modem. Basically where I live the service is very spotty and never really reaches max bars, I have noticed this drains my battery like crazy throughout the day. At home, with my Airave or wifi connected I get great battery life. I was wondering if anyone has the same sort of situation and can vouch for this ROM's performance in terms of the battery life. I have tried flashing all available modem versions and matching kernels with the Unnamed ROM but el13 seems to give me the best battery life, and it's poor at that. EL29 was probably the worst for me, but I'm thinking with a ROM built around EL29 it may work well, I've read good things. Sorry for the rant, just growing very frustrated with having to charge my phone during the day when I hear of people getting a solid day with 2hrs screen time, etc. Thanks for any feedback you can give on the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
This must be the one: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20331247&highlight=voicetogo+apk#post20331247

I've got to try this too, I live off of my bluetooth when I'm driving and voice dial through bluetooth would be great to have.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] meatwadathf:
I'm also running on el13 stock kernel and el29 modem with calk's rom as it gives me the best battery life as well. I get pretty decent signal in my area, so I can go about 1.5days without a charge on my usage. However, when I visit my friends house, we chill in the basement where I get very poor 3g signal, and thats when my battery drains like crazy, so I think that is a common thing.

You might want to try using 4g if it is in your area as it might use less battery since it wont have to constantly search for a signal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Anyone else have problems with the Sprint hotspot? When I activate mine, I can connect with no problems but it'll always say it's unsuccessful. Once it retries a few times, it'll finally connect. Running EL29. Also noticed that GPS seems slow to update. Modem problem?

Have you tried going back to stock or another ROM to make certain its not the phone? It also sounds like the phone may be locking up and could not wake up (but appears to be off). I was having that issue when I started messing around with CPU/undervolts (which doesn't apply I know).

Are you running a ton of apps?

Edit: Try plugging the phone in when you think it is off. If the large battery indicator shows up on the screen, then you know its really shut off.
