I've been having this same issue since I first got the device while running stock. It is a known issue & false battery readings are quite possibly the culprit...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
- I installed this Kernel several hours ago

- after installation, I charged it to 100%

- I then did the battery calibration with the Market app.

- I used setCPU to an OC Max of 1600MHZ

- I set some other cpu parameters, depending on if asleep, screen on, etc.

- surfed the web for a while, fell asleep

- awoke, surfed, and you know the rest

- Ticking upwards >

Prior to the issue, the battery counter was showing increases, as it is now that it is being charged again.

- ROM >>

Stock EG30 Deodexed w/Root & Busybox .. Thnx Crawrg

I had fully charged the device after flashing the Kernel.

**As a side note, before catching some shut-eye, I had my device OC'd at 1600MHz, with other speeds set with setCPU.

Upon waking up, I changed the OC Max to 1400MHz. No reason, other than to save some battery, as I used the 1600MHz for Quadrant Scores, and some surfing prior.

I am in the office now, but don't feel secure on the outside without a charger, even though I always carry a spare battery, until I figure out why this is happening.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Just wanted to give you guys a heads up to where we stand:

We are hard at work testing two new kernels, a stock packaged with our recovery, and an updated version of this kernel. Both kernels are going to have a base of CWM 5.0.2.7.

The question I have for all of you is, do you think we should release the stock version as a beta? The updated version of this kernel I will test for a while. Typically I like to test kernels for at least a week, but there seems to be a very high demand for the stock version, so were thinking of pushing it out early. What do you guys think?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KELO777:
Good looking out boss !!!

THANKS Biker1 GOOD LOOKING OUT BOSS !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 1BadHEMI:
Push the stock and let us have at! :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KELO777:
For sure +1
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Send it my way if you need testing...lol Or my vote is release as a beta and believe me you all anyone talks about is LoS so it wont be hard to get folks talking about how the kernel does... drop it like it hotttt! Steady
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] journeyman73:
Another vote for releasing the stock kernel as a beta...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fordmanck:
I'll give the stocker a whirl for you. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
I like the model chris41g worked under, where he used IRC as a test channel, posting betas in the IRC chat for testers, so if they wanted to test, they had to make the effort to join the channel. I am perfectly willing to test the updated version of your kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] majmuni:
Release it will giv it a try what worse can happend
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] majmuni:
Thank you for your hard work
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
I just noticed this. Never seen negative figures before using CPU SPY

Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Don't know if this is related to the drastic battery voltage drop I experienced.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fordmanck:
I've had this problem with my last two phones and they were both Samsungs. I'm not saying it's something to do with them, but my previous 4 phones were all HTCs and I never ever had this issue. I constantly see this issue if I shut my phone off for a flight and then boot up and it's dropped 30%. I was at Disney this weekend, rebooted my phone because it was acting weird and the battery dropped from 48% to 8%. I'd love to know what causes it, I'm doubting it's kernel because I'm on Chris's stock EG30 right now, but what do I know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
1. Thanks for additional combo

2. Whatever you feel comfortable. IRC channel seemed the least contentious/collaborative method for the LOST kernels
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
I need a few people who have had LoS issues to PM me for a beta, first come first serve. It will be a stock kernel with bootanimation and init.d support, along with our recovery. If testing goes well today, I will release tomorrow as a beta :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KELO777:
I will test it boss

I will give it a shot boss ! EMAIL IS acortez707@gmail.com
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
You should probably send a pm as well to ensure you get included
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KELO777:
Cool thanks good looking out!

Sounds funny but how do i send one :-) thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] journeyman73:
Click on Steady Hawkin's name a popup should come up, click send pm & go from there...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KELO777:
Thanks boss have a good one !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Ok, I have enough testers for now. Big thanks to everyone who's participating, hopefully all goes well so I can let this loose :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] countryteazer:
I had LoS issues with it too and would love to test it out as well if it's not too late :) destinsurf@gmail.com
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I think that OP has gotten all the testers :mad:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CNDow:
I wiped cache & dalvik & flashed this kernel booted up went into settings > system updates & it loops right back to settings main menu. I cannot get into system updates. Went back into the new recovery wiped cache & dalvik & I still can't get into system update.

I guess I'll try re flashing & see....

Edit: wiped & reflashed still no go.. anyone have any ideas
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
Did you use the Superfreeze script at any point, or anything else that would have frozen the system updates process?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] majmuni:
I flashed the kernel my update works fine just a wifi issue that's all

no LoS yet all runs good so far there is some overheating by the camera
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
haptic feedback working?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] majmuni:
Where is heptic feedback
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CNDow:
YES! & Thanks given
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
No problem. Glad to help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Well, got one report of LoS on the stock kernel, not really sure what to do at this point...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Hey its still a good choice to give people. LIke it has been said all along that people on stock have LoS as well but maybe not as much. I would still prefer the option of a stock kernel with your recovery than it with CWM... IMHO
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Thats a good point, and I still have not gotten reports of LoS from the others testers, so I guess were going in the right direction....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
+1 Exactly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sportsplayer5959:
I still got los on lostkernel. The thing is there is really no way to completely get rid of it. At least we have developers like you working on it. Love your kernel :)

Sent from my Galaxy SII Epic 4g Touch
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dhoshman:
Well Ive been using it most of the day and no LOS so hopefully that continues. I really have tried most kernels and if I dont get it immediately I get it eventually so it really isn't a big deal (I got it before I ever rooted also). Thanks for the work Im loving this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JoeBruin32:
I assume it's probably just a typo, but the actual zip file is named 1.1 rather than 1.1.1

You said there might be another update soon, what are you planning to bring to the kernel? :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Will this release include more steps in CPU Freq table?

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
It was indeed a typo:p Next release will be a stock kernel with bootanimation, init.d, and our recovery. As far as this kernel were working on tweaks, an updated cwm base of 5.0.2.7, and a few others goodies for increased stability and performance. I'm not 100% sure at this point if our next release of this kernel will have the added steps, but it will be included in a future release.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
Does this kernel play nice with StarBurst v1.98???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] majmuni:
Yes its compatible but wait for a new realease it should be better with LoS issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
This is totally subjective, no offense. While some suffer more than others, some setups can help or cause more los. One never totally knows until they try. Until a fix is proven and is available I say keep trying until you find a combo that works for you ;-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
if possible, could the default control scheme for the recovery be using power for enter? I look forward to the next release.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Absolutely:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saridnour:
I get about 5 LOS per day (2 in the last hour). I have been on this kernel for 48 hrs now. I am constantly switching between Roaming, Home and 0 signal while at work so am a big candidate for LOS. I see a bit more LOS with this than I did on the Lostkernel+exp. I am running Calkulins Rom as well. I am still evaluating this phone so is not activated but on the network. Because of that, I have it set stock only removing gmail and adding enhanced email pulling 2 push accounts. I am also signed into market, other than that I'm stock.

If you want me to test any fixes, I should be able to give it a good workout as I LOS now every 4-8 hrs so can give your fix(s) a good run for its money. I also do dev work on the echo building a recovery and CM7 port so know my way around android a bit and am a software tester by trade. I am just offering to help if it would be of use.

ALSO, is your recovery source on git or available for review? I like some of the changes you made and would love to integrate some of it back into the Kyocera Echo recovery I made for it. Would love to get some ideas from your work and/or Port it for the device completely. You can look at the recovery effert I made on the echo here: http://heartheecho.webs.com/apps/forums/topics/show/6684458-echo-cwm-recovery-image-now-available and have corrected a few of the remaining issues in a yet to be released update. I had to make a lot of changes to the source to fit the dual screen and lack of touch key control.

-saridnour
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fordmanck:
Have you tried the pulled EG30 kernel? The next release is going to be based on that. I have struggled with LOS too and only switching to the stock pulled kernel fixed it for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Thank you for your interest! Looks like you have done some nice work. Yes, our source is posted on our Git, which can be found in the OP.

As far as the LoS is concerned, as fordmanck said, give our stock pulled version a shot and see if it helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saridnour:
Yes but I have the issue connecting to some Wifi access points as reported in the thread. Unfortunatley my home AP is one of them. I know how to get around it a bit, but just was trying to offer help as I know I can get an LOS repo easily.

another downside to the pulled, the battery life was not so great and because of the poor signal in the office, I need the best battery savings as I can get. My battery tests are compared to my epic running a near identiacl config but sadly outlasts the s2 by almost double the life. Its a hard upsell to switch devices even with the s2's hardware being so much better.. I still need a phone at the end of the day.. lol :) Trying to find the best compromise. 2.5 hrs per 10% of battery is about best I can do so far with little use. currently I only get about 1.3 hrs per 10%. (yes battery has been calibrated but on first training cycle so should get better and LOS is making it worse).

Steady Hawkin: Ok I'll check for the github link, did not see it at first but wasn't really looking for it on first read.. :)

Update: Ok didn't see the stock one posted utill just now. I thought "fordmanck " was talking about the other pulled stock kernel. I will download and report back tomarrow (unless I hit an LOS or issue). Hopefully yours does not have that wifi issue :) Also thought the source link was for kernel only.. will clone it and go from there. If I use any of your source how would you like credit noted? Keep your footer?

-saridnour
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] springsyeti:
I was unable to use the msl adapter with this kernel and calk's Rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Make sure your in the correct branch of the git. Your welcome to fork and cherry pick whatever you want. All we ask for is credit in source control, and in the post:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saridnour:
Recovery source: I pulled your git and merged it in with my changes and have it working as a test. Your logo looks cool acrosss the two screens on the ech BTw.. must be a zoom thing ;) lol All seema to work but the Nandroid restore user.. it had issues formatting the partition. I noticed it looks to be a rev or two behind what is on the S2 as well. I pulled from your "android_bootable_recovery" on git and am building on cm7 latest. I dug through the source a bit but wanted to verify it was the latest before investing more than an hour on it. :) currently all your headders and logo are in place on my test rec. Wasn't sure if it was a port if you wanted it left alone (as its your source) or if you wanted it stripped becasue its not a "rouge" release. Much of it will carry over so its a fine line for me to do whats right in your eyes if you know what I am saying :) You guys did great work! anyhow just wanted to verify that was the latest or where I should pull the latest and I will go from there.

Kernel and LOS: I switched over to your other kernel and have not had 1 LOS in at least 24 hrs. Thats a new record for this phone. Are some of these changes working there way into this kernel (know its mostly a stock kernel over there) but just wasn't sure what your forward plan was with this one as it ran nice just the LOS was a dealbreaker for me. As everyone else.. want the tweaks and no LOS.. haha we can dream right :)

-saridnour
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fordmanck:
I keep telling people to try stock pulled or a ROM using it if you're having los issues. I understand it's not going to help everyone, but it's helped a lot of people I've seen try it..

Sent from my SPH-D710
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Sound advice here
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] saridnour:
This stock worked VERY well for me.. It was the other stock pulled that would not. Couln't do it with the wifi connect issues, but yours had no issue with that!!! Awesome work!

-saridnour
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
As an FYI, you may wait to wait a little bit longer because we will be pushing our newest source to git (were going to release updated kernels with recovery base of CWM 5.0.2.7). As far as your other questions, you should remove our team logo as well as the rogue text in the menu. Do with it whatever you wish, just make sure to note credit as I told you earlier. Happy hacking bro:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Has anyone seen an improvement with LoS on this kernel after flashing the EG31 modem? I cant test since im lucky enough to not have the LoS bug.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d1msum4lyfe:
Had LoS today with this kernel & eg31

Went back to stock kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] magoo5289:
D'oh! I'm trying it out now as well. No problems yet
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asqwrd:
how is the battery life with this kernel is it better than lost kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
We need someone to make a kernel based on the eg31 because it's different versions. In the new kernel last 3 digits is 803
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
We have a new kernel on the way this weekend, but I'm not sure I understand your request. Whats a different version? Are you referring to the kernel version string?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
yeah when i flashed the recovery posted by squshy, it showed a updated kernel string
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
The kernel string does not make a difference, ours will always display what version of our kernel your on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrLeonHayden:
hey any way we can get the rogue kernel 1. 13 that's used with calkulins 1. 5 Rom. loving everything you guys are doing. keep up the good work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
That was 1.1.2. We have a new release coming later today or tomorrow...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrLeonHayden:
Appreciate the response and keep up the good work. I haven't had a los with the kernel and calkulins Rom. The ##72786# feature works great. If you ever need some more testing feel free to pm me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Get a sneak peak of our new kernel/recovery "Outlaw" here- http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1332837

Kernel- includes 1504 & 1700 to the frequency table (very few people will be able to run 1700, I cant).

Recovery- Now based off 5.0.2.7, which includes backup/restore to internal or external
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
after entering ##72786#, which choice did you select?

thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
is that included in calk's 1.5a?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
The updated kernels are running real good and I believe he said in a post on Calks thread its 1.1.2 or it may have been updated since version 1.5a came out. Either way the kernel and recovery is the way to go... Good work Steady
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Thanks fellas!!! Yes Calk's 1.5a includes our not-yet-released Rogue v1.1.3 "Outlaw" kernel/recovery
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
i love your recovery and kernels (i can OC to 1704:D ) it just seems that every so often my phone gets LOS on anything other than stock. It is what it is, but yes the kernel is buttery smooth and the recovery is a no fluff option out there. Appreciate the support. When i get paid again i will donate and like it

Steady - you see that Chris pulled the stock EG31 kernel? I am sure you get blown up about this all the time but are you going to update your stock kernel + recovery combo as well?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MrLeonHayden:
Enter the msl and let the magic work. I recommend that your in a good service area. After phone does the hands free activation let it sit and settle for a sec and then update prl and then profile
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
@Steady - Any thoughts to adding some steps at the lower level as well? I would like to raise my screen off speed a little but it goes from 2K to 5K.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
Updated, enjoy. Please note very very few people will be able to run 1700, I personally can not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gerald410:
Great Job Steady! Keep up the excellent work thanks again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Damn, I wish that 1700 version would release tonight because now I am thinking of flashing Calkulin's update to try 1700...testing new kernels is one of my favorite things to do...no last minute testers needed huh? Lol. I have tested probably 30 kernels but can't wait to try this upcoming one....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ewalk4866:
if you look in the firest post you will find a zip to flash in cwm it will work great
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
The newest version has 1700.

I just flashed it :)

Unless I'm missing something?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
I almost forgot. Huge thanks to all my testers in post #3. These guys are awesome, for the last week they have been gettin pounded with beta's. We cant thank you guys enough for all you do for us and the E4T community!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] countryteazer:
Thanks for this badass kernel. It's been flawless thus far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Oh crap its up?! Downloading NOW! Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Is everyone else getting rock bottom Android OS usage? From the attached BBS shot, suspend and events/0 processes are both at 1s of cpu. I would be around 12s by now for this amount of time off the charger, and that was already awesome. I'm pretty amazed. No AOS bug here lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Oops forgot the screenshots.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Damn, first phone that can't handle the highest overclock. 1600 is good 1704 did a long vibration then went back to a loop of SGS2 and boot screen over and over. Had to restore nandroid. Wiping cache and Dalvik didn't clean it up. Oh well, maybe a 1650 stage...lol. The rest is working just fine though. I want to see who got lucky with a phone that can hang at 1704. If course I didn't up the voltage. I couldn't get that far...lol. Good stuff though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tiffany84:
Is this the same kernel that's in Calkulin's v1.5a?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] schwab002:
Yes I believe so.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] expertzero1:
steady hawkin said it was a old version somewhere in his thread
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Calk's v1.5a does indeed have the latest 1.1.3
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Neomorpheos:
Went for 1704 a few times but no luck would freeze (there was one quadrant test that made it through clocking 4900) and have to pull battery, luckily would not get stuck on boot and was able to reduce, 1600 is working like a champ, anyone lucky enough to get 1704?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KING SKILLZ:
Can't go above 1400 on any rom or kernel in quadrant test, but all is smooth so far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
1650 sounds tempting but some people are going to be able to handle the 1704 then we will all have to find reasons to exchange our phones! Lol. Curious as to the voltage setting for 1704 so I can possibly mess with voltage settings in Tegrak
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
It says 1500 :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Oh, I meant as a future suggestion that more phones can handle..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Ummm....thats the voltage, are we talking about the same thing? haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sterist:
isn't this why people recommend unchecking "Set on boot" when trying new voltage/speeds? lol

...but yeah my phone no like 1.7 but loves 1.6

I'm sure a little fine tuning on voltage will help some people. didn't for me though. it was actually defaulted to 1475mv but tried 1500 & 1525. with 1525 it almost lasted long enough to fade out the governor selection window lol i my phone is going to be exchanged tomorrow so I'd try higher mv..... BUT i need to have a phone 24/7

hopefully the new one will be as tolerant, if not more
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Exactly why. I was unchecked but still got that strange splash/boot screen loop. I wouldn't make a rookie mistake like that. I tested every kernel released on the OG Epic and have a bunch that weren't released. I was actually one of the only people that had kernels for Epic that went above 1.4 until about 2 days ago. I convinced them that 1.44 can be totally stable (that just got released) and told them my Nexus handles 1540 totally stable. They may push the Epic envelope a bit more now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I am sure there us some mid point between 1600 and 1700 that can be stable for more people. Quadrant only tests one core (pretty sure on this) and for comparison here's Nexus 4g at 1540
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Then here's our phone at 1600. There has to be a medium between 1600 and 1700 but that takes time and alot of testing
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Biker1:
1704MHz and Fly'n!

Going on 10 minutes as I type!

Went to delete a word, hit the back key on SwiftKey, and erased 2 sentences in a flash by accident!

Will dial back the speed shortly, as don't wanna blow anything up :(

Update

Frozen a couple of times on 1704

Locks up on Quadrant.

Settings are 200 Min., 1704Max. On Demand setCPU

But still flying at 1704!

I dialed back, as I got a few freezes. Battery pull solved the freeze each time.

Just wanted to get a taste of @1704. And it tasted so good!

Really nice work on this Kernel/Recovery.

Thank you to Steady Hawkin and everyone else involved ;-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
I tried to download the 1.1.3 kernel, and it kept giving me 1.1. Even when I tried switching it at the site. Is something wrong? I checked to change my voltages and a no go, but I have the recovery. So I got stock lol.

How else can I go about getting the new kernel?
