So after a phone call my phone makes these crazy squelch type noise until I reboot. Running samuri 3.3.0 warrior kernel. Any suggestion on how to stop this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
That is a problem with the kernel. I believe they discussed fixes in the Samurai thread. The sound you are hearing is feedback from the microphone. Check settings in voodoo control app. Or switch to new Shadowkernel 1.04.

I've been running 2.2 for a couple of days now, really like it, with some careful attention to setup I get up to 2 days on the stock battery with my regular usage pattern. But I've experienced two minor hiccups I'm trying to figure out.

When I move programs to the SD card the first time I try it it fails, then works fine after that. I've tried several different cards, formatting, etc but it still does it.

Folders created on the home screen doesn't stick between boots. Everything else does, widgets, shortcuts, etc. Just folders. An example would be Pandora folder. I don't think it did it on 2.1. Was thinking about trying another launcher, maybe Zeam or some other low resource launcher. But has anyone else experienced this? Specifically Pandora?

Thanks.

Anyone else having problems with flaky WiFi? Both on 2.1 (which I'm back on now) and 2.2. On 2.2, it just straight up didn't work. It would show up as being connected but it in fact was not. On 2.1, it will connect for a bit then just time out. If i turn it off and back on it will work for a little then back to the way it was.

When I flashed both 2.1 and 2.2 it was from a clean fresh wiped everything flash and all installed apps came directly from the market, no TB this particular time.

What's the best kernel for this rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Some people prefer the samurai line some people prefer the shadow kernels... its really what your phone agrees with better. I use the samurai kernels by earthbound! They are excellent...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
There's a couple great choices. Shadow 1.0.4 if you wanna keep it simple, no overclocking. Shadow 1.0.4+ allows for oc / uv. And my personal favorite is the samurai 3.3.0, or the latest release by Earthbound, samurai tw.bml legend.

i checked agaisnt the official time and it seems to be 6 minutes behind..

and ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
Try setting the time manually and the switch back to automatic. And make sure you have a good signal when you try it. Pretty sure its not a bug with the rom but who knows. Im not experiencing that problem but doest mean its not there. Also you could try to clear data in your clock.apk

So i'm thinking based on results of the poll, that i may keep BML and MTD versions for another two builds or so, then push to MTD. Just doesn't make sense to be able to go back and forth with all that work to come back to BML from MTD... Stay tuned.

EDIT: Maybe an MTD conversion package thats included in the EXT4 installer\updater? That allows conversion of the current BML to MTD, AFTER you've flashed the EXT4? That way, it always installs EXT4 if you're already EXT4 partitioned, unless you're already MTD, in which case, run the MTD installer\updater? HM.... I think i'm onto something! :P

EDIT2: I'm about to push the limit on edify's ifelse syntax! :P

Well I am waiting for an mtd version, I have no choice now cause I am not coming back from mtd. I flashed an mtd rom yesterday in the hopes I could advance restore system from a Legendary nandroid and be back on Legendary but that was a big negative ghost Rider. It wouldn't work, so I am on CM7 for now which is excellent but I need 4g to work and unfortunately that's not available on CM7. So I am going to use clean gb mtd until ERA packages a legendary for mtd. :-(
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Sorry man... Working on it. I may get something out tonight, just want to have it kind of compatible for everyone, ya know?

What i may do, is put out 2.2 again, with MTD compatibility, and then figure out the conversion scripts, and extra stuff later.

Ok so I know it's been a while and I actually did not get a chance to wipe and start fresh putting only the apps I need back on with TB Pro like kennyglass recommended to me earlier but I wanted to let you guys know that the issues I had earlier are no longer happening.

I was having an issue that each time I turned on my phone it would ask what I want to run as my default browser and my default app when I dock my phone (never asked my default launcher even though I used Go Launcher)

Today it froze while using Google Maps as soon as I tried to get the quickest directions to work today and I left it frozen till I was at work. I pulled the battery and turned it back on and it's been working since. I have reset it one time more while at work (after installing Avast) and it still is not asking for default apps.

I'm not sure why it started to work again as I did not do anything to try to correct it but I'm glad it does work again.

Hoffman -- bring on the MTD so we can eventually have ICS on Lengendary (possibly). I can't wait. I hope it stays stable as your BML 2.2 ROM currently is. :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Looks good enough to work...
[Epic 4G Android Development] kbeason:
I've used the ROM for 24 hours so far. Here are my impressions:

There's been one or two lock-ups. I occasionally had these on stock EE22 too.

There has been two freezes, lasting a few seconds.

My SMS receiving texts have timestamps one hour ahead of outgoing texts, so they do not order properly.

The microphone mute button in Gchat w/video does not work, so when I tried video chatting my tablet there was unavoidable feedback.

I don't like the "Legendary" or "ERA" on drop down notification.

Otherwise everything seems to work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
Did you do a clean install before flashing this rom? Alot of people had been experiencing problems when flashing over older versions.

Sent from my legendary samurai tw. bml legend.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
Lets see here..

I have had zero hiccups while using this rom. So, I can help you there really.

SMS Timestamp could be a roaming issue. That's a known problem, although its usually more pronounced like 6 hours ahead.

The microphone mute, can you mute fine during a phone call? Need to troubleshoot on that issue. Could be the kernel.

And if you don't want "Legendary" or "ERA" in the notification drawer, install a theme. That is our "branding" if you will, but a theme will change that.

Thanks for the feedback and for helping us make Legendary Rom better! :)

I done it! I done it! I have my favorite ROM Legendary 2.2 on MTD/Yaffs2 now I can flip between Legendary and CM7 anytime I want.

Read the second post on the thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=20486368

In the instructions it says to rename system, data but you also have to rename cache file also. Then edit the md5 file. You need a good nandroid and then flash any of the two ei22 mtd roms I used Toadlife's clean mtd rom then used my nandroid to restore legendary over that one keeping the mtd kernel. I later flashed AIP Samurai MTD kernel. I advance restored both system rebooted then went back and restored data.

Many thanks to Zanderman112 who pointed me in the right direction.

EDIT: Just flashed Shadowkernel for tw mtd and it's running awesome super quick and colors are sharp and vibrant.

Glad you got it working! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
Thanks for the info. Gonna have to try this out soon. Did you do a backup from cwm or from somewhere like rom manager before you did this. I only ask because I have made backups before and the when I tried to restore it would fail.

Sent from my legendary samurai tw. bml legend.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
You have to use CWM 5 the one ROM Manager installs, and you need to use that cwm recovery to do the advance restore. One thing once your on MTD you can not boot into recovery, you need to 3 finger into recovery, and it will double flash the Samsung logo before going into recovery, that is normal on MTD.

Yes, I wiped data, cache, & dalvik three times.

[Epic 4G Android Development] crazyc78:
Very useful post Ed but one question I've been on MTD for sometime now. I don't have a nandroid backup from a BML rom. So the method you used to get Legendary on MTD won't work for me right ? I'm probably going to have to wait until Hoffman makes it to where it's MTD compatible.

[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
The freezes could be the kernel not playing well with your phone... as for the Gchat which i'm assuming is google talk... maybe i could grab some better lib files to make it work... but i've never heard of this problem before...

as for the "Legendary" and "ERA"... Tough S#!7 =)

You can always lay a theme over our rom.... Not to sound like a d!@& or anything.. =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nashdogg:
Ok, thank you. I have ACS5 1.0.0.0 that I three finger salute to. And cwm 5 that is in rom manager. CWM 5 has seemed to be more reliable. Been hesitating to go to mtd, but when I do I think this will be the way to go. Thanks again.

[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
So i'm not quite understanding... is this an MTD conversion tool? because i'd rather not re-invent the wheel here. lol

been trying to figure out how to do it in shell, but if you have an edify conversion script i'd love to have it. or atleast send me the basics so i can incorporate into the ext4\yaffs2 installer... ya know? =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Hehe...Nice! I am just trying to change the color to blue to go with my theme. I like the branding. It helps this old guy remember which ROM I am on..LOL. Going to try 9.png editing this weekend for the first time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Correct if you don't have a nandroid of Legendary you will have to wait until Hoffman and team ERA put something out on MTD. I just am so obsessed with Legendary since I have tried almost every other ROM and none compare. The only one I like also is cm7 but it has no 4g and I need that sometimes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Hoff, basicly I made a good nandroid back up of Legendary then flashed an ie22 rom already MTD and converted my phone to MTD.

Then I went into the nandroid file renamed the system. EXT4. Tar to system. Yaffs2. Tar did the same with data. EXT4. Tar and the cache file. Then went into the md5 file anywhere in the line where it says ext4 I changed it to yaffs2 saved closed it and booted into recovery did an advanced restore of the system first which converted the mtd rom I had flashed to Legendary still keeping the MTD kernel. Then I went back into recovery and advance restored the data and it restored flawlessly, booted and it was as my phone was on Wednesday when I created the nandroid. Then I flashed samurai mtd kernel and later the shadowkernel for mtd which I honestly prefer. Gps works spot on, colors are awesome, quick response. So yeah its a way to convert over but it took me at least 3 hours of trial and failure and some people will be bound to screw it up and be stuck on mtd unless they want to odin back to froyo stock then re root and start all over again.

EDIT: if I where you guys I would simply just create a new thread and zip up an mtd version of the exact same rom with its equivalent mtd kernel. The rom itself doesn't change. The only reason I say a different thread is because the kernel threads are becoming a nightmare and half the noobs post things or questions without clarifying which kernel they refer to. Toadlife created a different thread for his mtd version of his clean rom which seems to be much easier to navigate. Still have to put in big red bold letters that it's an mtd rom and once converted warn them the only way back is odin to stock. And froyo is much easier to recover to. I say this because again the noobs that come around and flash anything and then cry, I have read it over and over again in the Cm7 thread, they just flash and then realized they can't get back. Also anyone wishing to use the ie22 modem must do the conversion prior to moving to MTD, apparently it won't flash afterwards since there's no tar file for ie22 modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
My idea for the shell script to convert was exactly that... i have it in my head, just haven't typed it out yet. lol

as for a seperate thread... a few posts back i posted an updater-script that can manage both mtd and ext4 from what i can tell with little to no problems at all... so i'm really leaning towards not opening another thread... just for the sake of being different as well. =)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
So basically your rom will not convert to MTD, but will recognize which file system the user is on and load the Legendary Rom in either ext4 or MTD depending on what system the user is on? Thats a good idea, but for those wanting to convert to MTD they will have to go to CM7 first or some other TW Rom that is already MTD before flashing Legendary...similar to what I did? Maybe add a separate conversion zip for those who want to convert to MTD but do not wish to flash any other rom. I am just thinking like a noob here, because you will get them...
[Epic 4G Android Development] The Root:
Do you suggest a clean odin wipe before doing this. I have been flashing things without one since EI22 came out and I'd rather take the time to do it right. My plan was to odin to stock, flash a MTD TW ROM & kernel, do the advanced restore tricks, then flash shadow. Sound about right? Am I going overboard?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Yeah the odin is too much. Just make sure you have a good nandroid of what you want to restore. Keep in mind at all times that if it fails you will be on mtd, and only way back is to odin back I have my eco5tar and victory pit ready for that day lol.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
If your comfortable with it then by all means. One note CWM5 is an official build and not an experimental type like the previous versions it does clean and wipe completely. Thus there is no reason to wipe 3x like people where used to to doing. And it does clean out good enough that going to odin to wipe residuos data is really not necessary. I haven't had a single issue flashing, restoring or data issues since CWM5.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
