You'll have to compile a new kernel from source and disable the bootlogo.

GPS fix works.

Just a heads up letting you know that your GPS fix in Beta 3 works fantastically. I went from getting a fix on only 2 satellites in beta 1, to 10 minutes later in the same room in the same exact location being able to connect to 7 satellites in beta 3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
Is there anything else that people would want to see in this? While still keeping it pretty much all stock of course.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ehurt152:
I would love to see lock screens! Otherwise I like how it is now, it's sweet! Thanks for your efforts we appreciate you!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
1. Use Wifi Tether instead for now, it should work. I, too, prefer the hacked hotspot and am staying with Froyo until a working version is available.

2. It should.

3. Try a different browser (IE). Download worked for me, am tempted to flash but will hold off as I am pretty happy with SFR 1.2 Froyo and am waiting for more goodies to drop ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
That is not an easy task to compile kernel from source right. So is there a way to install the stock kernel on my existing ROM? How do I do that?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
Can you upload two kernel versions? One that has nubernel kernel and one that has the stock kernel (to get rid of that bobblehead or just nubernel kernel without boot logo)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
deleted - link no worky :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
Not sure what u uploaded but it says file is not available.

Can someone post the same nubernel kernel but recompiled without bobblehead boot logo?

EDIT: I will ask Nubecoder if he can create another kernel to remove his boot logo but is there an easier way to do this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ehurt152:
I think there's a kernel that you can odin.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
Well I did find this thread that lists the kernel but there are no instructions on how to install it. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1307980

EDIT: Although it would be more helpful if Nubecoder can update his kernel with no boot logo

How is the battery life for those of you using this ROM and kernel combination?

My phone lasted only 5 hours today from full charge to near dead with GPS off. The only processes running are email to exchange server and a POP email account.

[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
I normally get like 15+ hours of fairly heavy use on this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chstephens5219:
Thanks. Something is draining the battery on my phone then. Are you using any task managers to keep things in check?
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
Nope. And I normally keep my wifi on, just because I forget to turn it off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ehurt152:
Yes that's the page. Scroll down to this: kernel-GB-3.tar.md5n. Download file. Put your phone into download mode. Put into PDA slot in odin. Check reboot ONLY. Start. And your done.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
When I started reading more into that thread, it looks like their kernel is stock RFS only. Is that true?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JMMusic:
That's what I'm waiting on. Essentially this ROM in tar format. I just don't feel like chasing my phone through reboots trying to get into non-stock recovery before it gets replaced (again) by stock recovery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ehurt152:
I didn't see that stated anywhere. But here is the video by qbking. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=kwFRzzIqouE&feature=uploademail
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
Ok I will try that...What is the difference between stock EI22 kernel and Nubecode kernel?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ehurt152:
That's out of my league :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
For one, nubernel doesn't have the script that will reinstall stock recovery on every boot - in other words, stock comes with the added feature of losing CWM as soon as you reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
xBTx

i was talking to styles and he was letting me know that the prl and mms issues are only on my version of EI22...

any idea what causes that? or how to repair?

RFStoEXT4 Attempt

I tried to change my file system from RFS to EXT4, but upon rebooting my Epic got stuck at the Samsung logo. Restored my backup and am currently back on RFS.

Has anyone been successful in converting using this ROM?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcastel2:
To Tps70,

I thought that going from EC05 (Froyo) to EI22 (gingerbread) automatically converts your filesystem from RFS to EXT4.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hardrock121:
so... i am on deodexed rooted stock EH17. .. just download this and flash it in cwm should do right? ie keep this flashes the kernel and its already prerooted.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chstephens5219:
Yes, I am on EXT4. After conversion using RFS2EXT4.ZIP, I wiped data and cache 3x then installed ROM again. Prior to running you need to do a titanium backup of your installed apps unless you want to download again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
EXT4 is never part of an official build, so the general concept of going to EI22 does not imply conversion to EXT4 - in fact, without a custom kernel, EI22 won't boot on EXT4, same as all of the other official roms.

The kernel in this rom, however, is custom, and (while I haven't tested it myself) does support EXT4. But you still need to flash the conversion zip.

Just remember, the default, officially supported filesystem is RFS - EXT4 is available through modification from our developer community, and has not yet (and probably won't ever be) merged into Samsung's official builds
[Epic 4G Android Development] tps70:
I was under the impression that all stock Samsung releases have been RFS, including EI22 Gingerbread. I'm just a user, not a dev, so I'm really not sure.

The RFS2EXT4.zip automatically backs up your data and restores everything after it converts the file system. Because of that, I didn't think to wipe anything after running it. I may try a bit later with just a data/dalvik wipe, just to see if it works for me. :cool:

Also, if the kernel is compatible with either file system, I wouldn't think installing the ROM again would be necessary. I've been wrong once or twice, though. :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] ajbent86:
+1 vote for this. I dont care for the Nubernel bobblehead.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robrob:
I was using [ROM]ACS ICS v2 (noCiQ)[EI22] but couldn't get the GPS running so I simply did the two basic wipes without the "factory wipe" and flashed this ROM over it. I did the odin to EC05 modem and then upgraded it to EI22. The GPS didn't work until I went back and did the "factory wipe" but now everything is great. This is a very nice ROM with the best GPS performance I've ever had and battery life is impressive too.

I'm not a big fan of the Nubernel boot graphic but I realize it's a small price to pay for his rock solid kernel.

Thanks for the great work on this ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tygern8r:
Super Awesome! Thanks!

---well, I thought it would be. Now I'm stuck in a boot loop with Mr. Candy Corn and then back to recovery. Followed qbking77's video instructions exactly. Wiped, re-downloaded, re-flashed, still boot loop.

Baseband S:D700.0.55.EI22

Kernel 2.6.35.7

I am quite the noob though, so I'll search, read and see where I might have gone wrong.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
I can do the LogsProvider fix, but I don't plan on adding the lockmod. Not that its updated for EI22 yet anyways.
[Epic 4G Android Development] evilsock:
is the keyboard fix in this kernal or should i use the one talked about a page or so back, kernal-gb-3.tar ??

on the page that has the kernal it also has links to some gb patches, i dont need those do i ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
This has the keyboard lag fix in it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pixlz:
Nice to see life flow back in the community.

So I do have an issue after flashing this. I cannot copy apps to memory card. In fact... I installed stock EI22 on my girlfriends phone, then nubernal to make root stick. Same result.

When I used just the keyboard fix(no nubernal) I have access to copying to my sd cards.

Can anyone else confirm nubernal breaks copying apps to sd cards?

Might have to wait for a less flawed gps fix.

sent from my Epic... in the middle of somewhere.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chstephens5219:
I was under the same impression, however after the EXT4 conversion I could not get a boot beyond "the nubernal guy" until I wiped data, cache and Dalvik and reflashed the ROM. I don't know why, I just know it worked for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Not sure it's necessary anymore, personally, I've had problems with double tapping keys - tends to result in unexpected periods in the middle of the sentence because two spaces will do that, lol

Can you put Reboot option in the power menu?

[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
I have this done, but the reboots are slow. It doesn't work as fast as the reboot option in CM7. I do have reboot to recovery and download working also.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pjnofrills:
Flashed this to my wife's phone, and it is quick! Unfortunately it didn't fix the issue I was hoping it would, which is that the bluetooth radio won't turn on. That's probably a problem with the hardware I guess. I flashed GTalk w/ video, but it didn't seem to work, I think I need to try this one specifically for SGS phones, correct?

I can move apps to SD fine. It shows up as "move to USB device" for some wacky reason.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nehpets:
No problem moving apps to SD. Yes it does say "USB storage" but the apps move to the card.

This rom is fantastic! Absolutely perfect. Everything is working better, faster, more stable, and with longer battery-life than ever before on any rom I've tried before it. Thanks for your work on this! I'm totally enjoying it.

Two questions:

Is there a 1% batt file for this rom? I have the EH17 one but don't know if it will play in EI22. I don't want to break anything at this point.

Is "journaling on" OK to flash on this EI22? Do I need it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ksmullins88:
it was just an apk missing. and im not much of a dev either.

Do we need to wipe anything when updating this rom with one of the updates?

Native Hotspot and USB

If this has not been posted yet. Here is the EI22 Hotspot Hack. Works perfect for me.

Comes from HERE. I don't think its NoCIQ friendly yet tho.

BUG: if I apply either of the battery % mods then go to power off menu then phone will reboot automatically I'm using adw launcher which shows an error before reboot
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
Sure, PM me.

Not necessary, but I'd recommend it. Backup in CWM beforehand and you can restore your data back over it.

That should do it. You may want to wipe first. This is already rooted and it flashes a kernel also.

Not a bug, an incompatibility. The battery mods edit the same file that I had to edit to add in the power menu. If you want a battery mod that works with this, you're going to have to use the framework-res.apk from this ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] iori:
I came from Stock DEODEXED EH17 with wifi hotspot hack and flased this and somehow the Wireless Hotspot changed back to Sprint Hotspot

But it actually still worked fine

Anyway, I have flashed the update 3

It's great in performance so far

Can someone provide the extended power menu only without downloading the full ROM again (Update4)?

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
If someone can help me make it flashable, then sure. When I added the modded files though, I lost all my contacts and some settings.
[Epic 4G Android Development] readingkeeper:
I'm currently trying to port one of my themes to EI22. I was having this issue too. So you're saying it's an issue with the framework-res.apk and not one of the .jar files?
[Epic 4G Android Development] xBTx:
I edited framework-res.apk and android.policy.jar. I feel like it was android.policy.jar that did it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] readingkeeper:
I'll try pulling android.policy.jar first.

Edit: That didn't work. So I guess it is something in framework-res.apk. Are there any other .jar files that the mod would affect?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ShooterMcED:
I flashed this from EG22 and it worked fine. I had to Odin to EC05 modem then ran the EC05TOEI22.ZIP to get the new modem.

Thinking of going back to an earlier modem as this one kills my battery on low signal while at my favorite fishing hole on the weekends......it only took one weekend since I just flashed last Thursday!
[Epic 4G Android Development] tps70:

Volume Rocker Mod?

Is there any chance of getting the old mkasick volume rocker mod added? Being able to use the volume rocker to go from audio to vibrate to silent is a beautiful thing :)

Other than that this rom has been performing miracles. My battery life is extraordinary I haven't had any crashes or weirdness.

I really appreciate the work that has gone in to this!

Thanks :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] blazinazn:
Agreed on the rocker thing. Would like to see that added as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stealth25k:
Hello all. Is there a crt off mod that works with this great rom without damaging the extended power menu? (The menu when you hold the power button)

Thanks in advance!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
If you flash "update 3" you can use the LogsProvider fix with CRT flash and not break the power menu. You will lose the "extended options" from the power menu however.

Hopefully someone can give us a compatible CRT flash that doesn't break the extended power options in the future.

BTW, if anyone else breaks their power menu in "update 4" by flashing the CRT off you can reflash the ROM without wiping to fix it, but you will lose the CRT animation. I'm not aware of a way to have both right now, until someone changes the files to be compatible.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stealth25k:
Thanks will try it tonight! Regular power menu and crt off is perfect:)))

I do have a noob question... I want to wipe the rom and start from scratch. So I wipe cache, dalvik cache and battery stats 3 times and than flash the update right? I also want to install ext4 so I can do that after flashing the rom. Do i have to wipe anything before the ext4 conversion?

Thanks in advance!!! I really appreciate the help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
I'm running update 3 + noLogs CRT + native hotspot and all working great.

I don't know why you are wiping battery stats...you only need to do that if having issues with your battery charging/discharging erratically.

For a clean start, make sure to do a backup in CWM first.

Then wipe data, cache, and dalvik (3 times if you want)

Then flash the update. Now is also a good time to flash CRT zip.

If you want your apps and stuff back on there, go to advanced restore and restore /data only. Now you should be good to reboot.

For the ext4 conversion I'll defer to someone else as I always stick with RFS. I believe you would flash the rfsToExt4 zip after you flash the ROM. I'd advise you also flash the JournalingOn zip because without it you risk corrupting your install.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stealth25k:
Hello thanks for responding but I'm a little confused. I only wipe cache partition and dalvik cache only and than format the rom cause I want to start fresh? I didn't see an option to format data in cwm purple, can you please tell me what its called. I'm sorry but this was the first time I ever flashed a rom and have a few extra questions. Does update 3 have the crt off built into it? I'm a little concerned with using the crt off zips from anyone because my power menu no longer works after using the crt off zip. When I hold the power button to access the menu, my launcher force closes and the phone reboots. I believe that its not really compatible with this rom or I'm totally wrong.

Thanks again :))))
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
The CRT flash is not compatible with "update 4" of this ROM due to the extended power options. It is however compatible with "update 3"of this ROM. So if you want to give up the extended power options in exchange for the CRT animation what you need to do is flash "update 3" followed by the CRT flash in CWM.

The option to wipe data in CWM is called "wipe data/factory reset" and is right above wipe cache. You don't necessarily have to do this, but it ensures a clean flash. Keep in mind this will wipe all your existing stuff like (apps, sms, call logs, etc) so if you want to keep that stuff either skip wiping data, or you can backup, wipe, then advanced restore data.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stealth25k:
Thank you so much!!!! Just one final question, I promise :) I can use any crt zip thingie or is there one in particular? Do you mind posting which crt zip you use?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
I used the one linked in the OP under the update 3 heading. It is titled ei22 logs provider-crt.zip. I am on my phone at the moment or i'd link it. Can't comment on any others as I haven't tried them.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dantichrist:
Thank you so much for this!

I added supercharger and a couple of other little tweaks and it's so fast and reliable. This is how this phone should have been out of the box!

Thanks for not putting a theme on it. That's what keeps me away from most roms. I like the stock one for some reason lol

I had the GPS issue initially, but I did a chmod 6755 on gpsd and it works better than it ever has.

The power menu you added made it perfect.

Thanks again, keep up the great work! :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
I want to flash this ROM if possible. I understand it is intended to be flashed through CWM. I am already running stock EI22. I assume I have to Flash back to ECO5, then install CMW and then flash this ROM, correct? Will I retain the EI22 modem I already have or will I then need to flash ECO5 to EI22 modem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blazinazn:
You don't have to go back, you can just install this zip. I flashed this particular EI22.zip file, made some changes, flubbed it up, then reflashed it and it was fine.

It contains the modem so it'll put you on EI22, regardless of what is already on there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Pardon my ignorance. My understanding is that this is not an ODIN TAR and must be installed through recovery. Are you saying you flashed it using the stock recovery program?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blazinazn:
You can just install CWM on what you have now,then flash this .zip file.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
OK thanks. I was under the (perhaps mistaken) impression that CWM would not install over stock Gingerbread.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blazinazn:
I think you are right, you can just do one click and with CWM though
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
That is what I was saying, I do not think one-click works on GB, so I think I have to go to back to Froyo first.

I am looking forward t giving it a test drive.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
For future reference, you can use the ODIN flashable to install CWM on GB. You are correct the 1-click doesn't work afaik. But you did not have to go all the way back to EC05 to get the job done.

Anyone else wanting to do this here are the steps from EI22 Stock GB:

1. use odin to install CWM

2. When phone reboots to samsung splash screen, pull battery

3. replace battery and boot holding vol down, camera, power

4. install ROM

This way you keep EI22 modem and install a ROM w/o having to flash back to froyo first.

Booting stuck at Nubecoder kernel screen... help?

My phone is currently rooted, on stock eb13 and ext4, and I did the factory reset 3 times and cleared the cache 3 times through clockwork mod, before installing, but after reboot, the phone freezes on the Nubecoder kernel screen. It never gets to the flashy "ANDROID" animation like in the video.

Interestingly, the progress bar gets about 1/4 of the way full during install, then instantly it finishes, and says install is complete. The install process, from start to finish, lasted maybe 30 seconds or so.

Is this normal?

Does it really install that quick?

Or is this a sign that the install isnt working like it should?

BTW, I downloaded the update4 file twice, thinking the first download was corrupted, but it does the same thing with the newer download.

Unsure what to do or how to get this to work...

----------------------------------

EDIT: Got it working

I odin'd back to bone-stock eb13, cleared dalvik, cleared cache, tried again and now it works gr8.
