GPS is excellent. MMS crashes when going into settings but as someone said just extract from version two and it works fine. Also as mentioned, some of the sub menus have black font on black background. Other than that this ROM is great for me. Good job, I see you were up late/early to get this out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Excellent Rom!

Awesome and thanks! I have been floating around trying the various EI22 Roms looking for the right match for me and I have to say that I am really impressed with everything you have done with this ROM so far - I am downloading the latest release and can't wait to see what's in store for me.

I have to say that from what I have found (and I know it is early - and there are only a handful of ROMS released so far - ACS-ICS has proven to be the most stable and complete EI22 rom I have tried so far.

Thanks for everything!

i still can't get my gps working. looks like i'm going to have to completely wipe, I tried copying the gps thing over, now rebooting to see if it might work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
That id odd... My gps gets an instant lock inside no matter how many times I reboot. I'll post a fix for submenus and the sms app in the OP. I guess I can put a gps fix in the op for those with issues. It will just do the old script in init.s trick.
[Epic 4G Android Development] geebs61:
What submenus are people seeing the black text in? I'm not seeing it anywhere.

I was on SFR1.2 w/EC05. I fresh flashed V2 and then EC05toEI22 modem. Then flashed V3.5 over the top of that.

This is working great so far! everything seems more responsive and smooth than my phone was running SFR1.2. The battery life is waaaaaay better as well. I was lucky if I could get more than 8 hours on a charge before, with juicedefender and autosync off. I've had it off the charger for about 6 hours now and I still have 73% battery left. And I've been using it much more than I would under normal circumstances. The displayis being reported as only using 3% of the batt, before it would have been in the upper 90% range.

Sprint Voice Mail Widget

The Spring Voice Mail ap is not working - it worked fine in the prevoius release, but something has happened so that it no longer works. WHen you try to launch voice mail it attempts to "Verify" your account - but it never happens.

This is also a problem with one of the other ROMS I tried previously but as I said, did not happen with the prevoius version of ACS ICS - so I can only assume that something was removed - IN addition - I was able to update my profile and update PRL with the prevoius version of ACS-ICS but you cannot do it now - I would bet that the issue realted with Voice Mail and PRL updating is somehow related - (but then, I am a NOOB and don't know anyhting about developing so that is really just a guess)

I really hope something can be done about this - it is critical to me for the VOICE MAIL widget to work - I don't use GOOGLE VOICE and can't for work reasons -

Aside from those two small issues - this is an excellent ROM!

After posting this, I did a quick compare of the aps in the last version of this rom with the most recent one and noticed that there were a number of sprint aps files in the previous rom that were not included in this one - I took a chance and inserted them back into the rom - flashed it - and Voice Mail is working again - I added three or four files - to be honest, I am not sure exactly what they do - I am not a dev - but for my purposes anyway it is working again.

Not sure what other ramifications this will bring to my phone - but at least my voice mail ap is working again. :-)

my thoughts

I have been with this rom since v1 and I'm incredibly impressed with how solid it is and how far it's come since then. I just flashed 3.5 OVER 3.1 with both caches cleard 3x but did not wipe data as Marcusant said we could flash over. I am running ADW and notice that its a little glitchy and my dock sometimes disappears.

Mostly, I am Quadrant benching in the 1500's which is say lower than the 2600s I was getting on v1.

I love nubernels work and am thankful I don't have to see his icon whenever I boot up. I'm just sayin.

I would suggest that more get stripped from the rom because Sprint/Sammy is getting sneakier and hiding things which I cannot find.

1. Dump anything to do with DRM - Media Hub is gone, why keep the junk.

2. News, Clock and Calculator? we all find the one we like anyway.

3. Sprint Hotspot. Isn't this one of the reasons we root in the first place, so we don't need to pay for wireless tethering?

4. Downloads app- don't need it.

add: sdx stock app remover?

CRT open/close?

improve benchmark speed.

PS- love the ACS updater - a great work!

Mind you this is not a criticism, just a report of my personal experience with my phone. I am grateful to all that do what I cannot. Thanks again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] spf2722:
If it is the cm7 mms.apk you should be able to switch from white to black background.
[Epic 4G Android Development] maghig:
I disagree with the news/clock/calc. They are easier to remove than to add in if you dont want them. Small self-contained apps like that should be left in for the end user to remove if they want. Its the bloated fingers-in-every-pie apps like the DRM and CiQ that need stripped by default.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rompnit:
No VM problems either... Flashed right over ICS.v6 EH17 ROM without issues; still running EH17 modem. Super fast (as usual with marcusants ROMs), but even noticeably faster over .v6!

[Epic 4G Android Development] TheFury369:
Just tried and it fc

So I really liked v2 apart from the wifi/gps but switching out kernels fixed the wifi. gps is rarely needed for me

My recommendation would be when the old kernel gets worked out fully for ei22 revert to v2 but fix the gps and apply any ui/theme changes and work with that

Or change the kernel if you want(I liked the nub kernel) and fix gps apply themes. I say this because the speed of this rom has lost all its speed and v2 with kernel change retains most of it(from my tinkering)

Maybe v3.5 just needs to be optimized

Thanks to everyone. A lot of people work on all the little things that make our roms amazing

Yah, news, clock and calc are small things- no big deal but like you said: DRM and CIQ both need to be gone and the other things on my list as well. I just can't figure the drop in speed from 2600's to 1500's. its worrisome.

BTW: does anyone have this problem: I store all my apps on the SD card and every time I flash a new rom, there's always 20 apps that need to be re-installed so I can move them over to the SD card. Is there a way to avoid this tedious process?

This what I did to fix it. All u have to do is open up the last rom v3 on the pc copy the mms apk from system/app folder to your desk top after you that open up the same folder in v3.5 delete the mms apk than paste the apk from v3 once your done move the v3.5 rom back to your sd card and reflash no 3x wipe needed.

[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Someone mentioned that when they first launched the voice mail ap with the widget and it started to try to 'provision' -they hit the back button and were able to login -

I tried that but when I closed it and openedup voice mail ap again it tried to "provision" again - and never would connect. I saw some other posts where others were not having the problems I had - so maybe I had a bad flash? I am curious if the people who said that Voice mail worked for them could also update their PRL in settings/aboutphone/system update? I could not do that until I flashed the files that were missing ...?

[Epic 4G Android Development] mjben:
I didn't see it as a problem - I always switch to launcher pro anyway. Buy, yes, I can verfiy that much.

Also, is there a reason that I needed to reflash the iap kernel after installing v3.5 in order to get it to boot? It was almost like the kernel was missing, reminiscent of sfr 1.2.

[Epic 4G Android Development] mjben:
I wasn't totally concerned with it, but your right. I got a quadrant score over 3000 using the deodexed ei22 with the iap kernel. Then i installed this and I'm down to like 1000. Not that it reflects in the rom performance at all, just saying.

I didn't make the jump to 3 or 3.5, but did notice something interesting and wanted to share.

Ended up getting GPS to work on v2 last night with copying that file to init.d and getting lock. I then flashed the IAP kernel and lost GPS ability even though the file was still there.

Put nubernal back on just now and GPS works again. I don't know what this means, but wanted to let you all know.

On the flip side...the new v3.5 is buttery smooth, no reboots and that RAM tweak is working great for my multitasking alongside the V6 supercharger...just giving out some props for a great build...and the new theme is very sexy with the seamless black inbtwn menu items...I love it!

Figured out my Google music issue. You know how there is a limit to the number of authorized devices. Well wiping and flash a few times can put you over the limit. Removed the 7 instances of my phone and all is good.

[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:

[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
The lockscreen mods, like many other mods, require modifications to the famework. We don't have a user-friendly way of making said changes on the phone, so the zip flash method has to replace the framework on your phone with another copy of the same framework, with the modification already done.

So, flashing a lockscreen mod from any other rom will replace your entire framework, meaning you will lose anything that is unique to the rom you're using - themes, other mods and tweaks, etc. And since no one has made a EI22 lockscreen mod yet, you just replaced the entire framework with either a leaked earlier version of GB, or a Froyo framework. Bad news either way (even though the GB leak versions might work, it has a good chance of breaking something... and then there's the noCIQ compatibility issue...)

Hopefully, people will start to grasp this concept soon - I've had to explain it several times, and I'm not the only one...
