I've tried doing a search, and wasn't following this thread from the beginning, so I'm sorry if this is a repeat.

This ROM is pretty awesome, and everything worked perectly, except GPS. I get a decent lock, but Google Maps keeps freezing. If I try going any further than a 20 minute drive, it crashes completely....

It doesn't do this on other ROMs. Any chance of a fix in 2.2? Am I just a strange isolated case? I tried GPSaids just for kicks, and it didn't help. This problem started with RC1...my wife is still on the last beta and has no trouble.

Ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Yes, very isolated but not totally. There was a Maps update that caused this not the ROM. Clear data in Maps and it should fix it. If the box is greyed out then use Wipe data in Titanium Backup. I use Telenav. Never freezes and clearer voice.
[Epic 4G Android Development] QMaverick:
Thanks! I'll flash back to Legendary and give this a shot...hopefully it fixes the problem.

Bug in Theme for 2.1

I think I found a small bug in the theme on 2.1. When I am downloading an app, the top section in my pulldown menu for "ongoing" seems to be white text on white background so I cannot read it. The rest of the notifications look fine and even the item in "ongoing" for "USB connected" looks fine. It only seems to be present during the downloading phase of an app from the market. I can see the progress bar and the little icon on the left to indicate that it's downloading but nothing else.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Ditto on the no seeing what is being downloaded
[Epic 4G Android Development] zanderman112:
That is a simple xml edit in the downloadprovider.apk, that I'm sure hoffman or ksmullins can edit.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Not the hugest of concerns, I pretty much know what is being downloaded
[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
It's all active notifications in general... The finished notifications that are ready to be cleared end up with black text after all is said and done.

I don't theme, but i'll give a look around and see if i can't find the problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
Definitely! I'm glad there's finally a dev that makes updating worth more than just an added themed app lol

Are you saying everyone is gonna update their roms at the same time with the same features??? What would make flashing one rom different than the other..?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
I think he means there's a few people on the Legendary team providing feedback to release 2.2.

No that all ROM developers are organizing themselves to release the same features at the same time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Hoff / Kevin - I know you guys said 2.2 will be available via ROM Manager, but will you guys still post the full ROM zip in the OP here? I have ROM Manager installed, but personally, I'd prefer to do it the 'old fashion' way and just throw it on the SD and flash in CWM.

If you guys have already decided to go ROM Manager only, I'll most certianly adapt.

Anyone have anyluck getting allshare to work? It always force closes for me even after pasting in the system/app directory - trying to stream video to my samsung tv
[Epic 4G Android Development] Comando156:
If I were to flash this rom, could I also flash the ICS theme 2.1 in the theme section? Or would it make features of this rom unuseable and or unstable? I ask because I really like the ICS theme and want to upgrade from acs syndicate rom to the best ei22 rom available.
[Epic 4G Android Development] QMaverick:
Just as an update to the GPS issue, the new Maps update seems to fix it...relashed today, and everything is good to go.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
You should be able to use it. Most themes made for EI22 are compatible. Make sure they are hotspot friendly if you use it and noCIQ compatible if you worry about it. Wipe Dalvik and cache before flashing a theme and ALWAYS backup before flashing anything. If it does seem to break something just reflash the ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Glad it is working for you now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] wizzlewizzle:
I give juice defender a 50/50. I also have a sanding replenish. I have the free version of juice defender and for the replenish it actually saves the battery, and I get a couple of days of normal use where before it would die halfway through the day. It gives the replenish much longer standby times like 3 days.

However on the epic juice defender seems to do nothing except piss me off in several different ways. 1. Juice defender seems to "delay" all my notifications on my epic compared to the replenish. I have I have the same email accounts and when I ha JD on the epic, and I don't get the emails when the replenish does. 2. My battery drains just as fast.

I find the new samurai 3.0.0 kernel has improved my battery life significantly. I also stopped using 4g 24/7 which nearly doubled my standby times.

-Wizzle
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Ya JuiceDefender was nice, but then I realized the amount of wakelocks that the thing was putting off, and it wasn't the greatest. I will turn off my wifi manually
[Epic 4G Android Development] mjh8812:
Anyone else notice that any version of IAP samurai kernel after 2.0.8, makes this rom very laggy?
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
You can change to say which apps can turn off and on for WIFI and which ones not to use wifi and control all the settings now
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
You have to mess with the governors. Also noticed some people said the lag disappears with use...idk.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Slimegod:
I'm ok 3.0.4 & its running smooth.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pablomentabo:
Application Defaults

I don't know if it is specific to this ROM but can someone help me with this? Ever since I've switched to Legendary I've noticed that if I need to reboot my phone then the application defaults reset and I have to set them again (like setting Miren as my default browser over stock)
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
No, that is not normal. You may have to wipe and reflash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pablomentabo:
Thanks, I'll get to it when I can. I was kinda hoping it wasn't that. After I wipe and reflash can I restore data from Nandroid or will I have to restore it from Titanium (I have free so I have to choose install app per app). Just looking for the easiest route.
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
I need to wipe and reflash too I am thinkin, any idea when we should expect the 2.2 glory?
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
I got the ADW launcher during the .10 sale but I don't know how to make it stick. By the way I am loving the look and battery life of this ROM. I was having a couple little issues and a reflash fixed it right up. Bring on 2.2.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
How is it not sticking? Did you check the use as default option when clicking the Home button and asked to use the stock launcher or ADW?

I was on ADW, then went to TW 4.5 for a while, then stock, then TW 4.5 again, and finally came back to ADW and haven't had issues with the sticking.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
No I wasn't asked so now I don't know how to use it. If I open it from the app drawer it opens but if I hit Home it goes back to the stock launcher
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
Download Home Switcher from the Market.

That should list both launchers and allow you to set one as the default one over the other one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
It shows both Launcher saying the stock is the default. When I switch it ADW doesn't stay as the default and it still reverts back to stock.
[Epic 4G Android Development] wizzlewizzle:
No but I recommend the speedtweak by Marcusant. I think it could help.

3.0.0 was extremely stable for me I'm currently testing out 3.0.4., 3.0.1 broke my wifi.

-Wizzle
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
Did you click on Launch or Set as Default next to ADW?

I guess you could try uninstalling ADW and reinstalling it.

Or go to Settings > Manage Applications > ADW Launcher > scroll down and Clear Defaults. That may also help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
You don't know if something in your data caused it or not. Try it clean first and make sure it works then only restore what you absolutely must have with Titanium and start fresh with the rest.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
You need to clear defaults in launcher also.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
I have tried clearing data in both launchers, uninstalled ADW and reinstalled. Still no joy.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
After clearing defaults in all your launchers, reboot. A box should pop up allowing you to choose a launcher. BEFORE you do there is a box and a line saying to use that choice as a default. Check that box and select ADW.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
Tried all that even to the point of flashing the rom and still the same. Is there something I am supposed to be doing to install the new launcher? All I did was download it and open it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stilesja:
Yes. My experience as well. Tried many governors and settings, the only thing to help is the lag free one but then it doesn't go below 600mhz... I am sticking with 2.0.8 for now. ShadowKernel is smooth but reboot to recovery off the power menu is broken when I have that on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
3.0.4 stealth is working amazingly well for me!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
That's very odd...

There should be nothing additional to just downloading, opening, and then setting as default.

Maybe the experts can weigh in on whether wiping dalvik and cache would help in this situation.

Have you tried downloading another launcher and testing if the same happens? There's Zeam, Launcher Pro, and even ADW free.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vwags:
Well I cleared the caches prior to reflashing to 2.0 then 2.1 and still the same. I then thought maybe ADW Ex was an addon to ADW free so I downloaded ADW free then both ADW free and ADW ex showd up as options so I chose ADW ex as default and now we are all good. Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Glad you got it figured out. ADW EX is a full launcher but there are add-ons for that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
Agreed... Glad you were able to work around it.

I'm really glad I decided to go back to ADW Launcher EX. It's my favorite launcher by far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Do you know if it boots up any faster than Zeam loading apps from the sd card on the homescreens?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Comando156:
Just flashed this rom after trying sleeper rom and upgradeing from syndicate frozen rom. And all I have to say is wow! Its buttery smooth, and amazing battery life... serously 11 hours now and 65 percent battery left... I even watched 30 mins of netflix and texted all day.... I'm super impressed. Also using the ics theme and haven't expierenced any force closes or anything. Thanks a lot. Look foward to 2.2... but don't see a big reason to update yet. As all is great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kainppc6700:
Just thought I'd contribute an update here and letcha'all know that I did manage to find some minor bugs in the new release:

1. If you press "power off" from the power menu, the machine will just rebooty instead of actually shutting down, making it impossible to actually turn the device off (which I rarely do anyway though).

2. If you click a mailto link, instead of automatically opening the "compose message" screen, it'll take you to a weird error which reads, "this account is not configured to sync automatically". Then it tells you to press "menu" and then "refresh", which does nothing. If you click "accounts" instead, it will tell you that you have no accounts, almost as if it is reverting back to an alnternate old version of the mail program when you click a mailto link instead of the regular one. Additionally, the "compose" button inside of the regular mail program does not do anything either.

Thanks for all the work ya'all put into this ROM though, it's still my "daily driver" and I rely on your work to get me through the day.

Merry Christmas ROM cooking :-)

- 2B
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
My Power off works fine. Did you flash something after the ROM? Try reflashing after wiping.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
Mine doesn't do any of that. It works perfectly correct. I think those issues are on your end and have nothing to do with the rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
No problems on my end either
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Mine does it as well, and I have just wiped and reinstalled, restored apps with titanium, and installed Marcusants tweaks, and the 3.0.4 kernel. Not sure what is causing it, would like to recalibrate the battery properly, but will have to settle for just the calibration android gives.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SkepticalOptimist:
I had the same problem so I wiped, reinstalled everything except the marcusant tweaks. No more problems
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Well that slims it down I guess we can blame the tweaks, no worries on this end, battery life is fantastic at the moment
[Epic 4G Android Development] fastmikey1969:
Are you saying zeam is the fastest?
[Epic 4G Android Development] fastmikey1969:
I'd like the nominate Shadowkernel for the next release.

Running RC2.1, Shadowkernel, EC05 modem, ICS theme.

No OC/UV.

Everything is working smoothly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] wizzlewizzle:
I use zeam because I think that it's the fastest. I think it's because it's lightweight.

-Wizzle
[Epic 4G Android Development] wizzlewizzle:
I hate how you can't delete a post when you accidentally create one. Like this one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] wizzlewizzle:
Go to market and download battery calibration its free.

-Wizzle
[Epic 4G Android Development] tsperez:
How do you do no OC/UV? What setting are you using? I've never made changes in that area.

[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
.........I had been using zeam 4 awhile, + enjoyed the minimal sublated nature of this launcher, it dovetailed w/ subtleties of Legendary_RC2.1 theme + therefore very reluctant to switch............ recently loaded ADW launcher ex........it's as fast as zeam, imo.................overall: lots of different UI settings + functions, such as scrolling dock or vanishing dock (increases screen area), or decreasing/increasing scale of icons............back + forth, between these two launchers w/ no issues whatsoever.....................still, zeam is pretty awesome.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fastmikey1969:
Well that's what I did, no changes. Not sure if the kernel does it by default
[Epic 4G Android Development] stilesja:
Been trying this out recently as well and really liking it. Doesn't seem to benchmark as well as samurai 2.0.8 but its got that same super fast feel which all his newer versions have been missing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ostrich69:
Ok I just installed this Rom this morning love it so far but one question hope it wasn't asked already if it was sorry.. In description it say wireless hot spot hack but how do I get it to work. I took forever to get my 10 post sorry guys just follow threads here on xda usually post on android central
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ragnar:
LOL according to your sig your on the wrong phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] kainppc6700:
I did flash a tweak to get the other unlock screen back as suggested in this thread. I also put on a new kernel to fix some major problems in the ROM by default, which was fairly major, so if you think that might be it, I could check back in that kernel's thread.

- 2B
[Epic 4G Android Development] mbartels:
I agree. I've been running it for about a week and the phone runs a lot smoother and the battery life is a bit better too. Plus, the colors look a lot more vibrant.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ostrich69:
Haha on my galaxy 7in tab
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
It is fast once it gets rolling. For awhile it was taking a looooong time to load up apps stored on the sd card. But there was an update and seams much faster upon boot now. Plus I really like the scrolling dock.

---------- Post added at 07:57 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:50 AM ----------

Ok, just click wireless hotspot, then on top of screen check the square to start it, then follow the instructions at the bottom. It says it uses wpa password which is your phone number. So when you connect with a device you will need to enter that as a PW. You may have to accept the connection on the phone if it is the first time that device connects.

---------- Post added at 08:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 07:57 AM ----------

If your reboot to recovery is broken and you flashed another kernel that is more than likely the cause. Also reflashing noCIQ breaks it as well. Just reflash 2.0 and 2.1 update and check it. Or wait until 2.2 hits which will be a full ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pablomentabo:
Thanks Kennyglass, one thing I've also noticed (and it may just be something I'd need to wipe and reflash like you said to do) is that when I get into an area with crappy Sprint signal that goes into total roaming my phone dies very quickly. I can be at 80% battery and a few minutes after it will be at 0. If I turn the phone back on once I'm out of that area (usually one of the malls out my way) then it will be back on at like 75% or so. Again, I will wipe and reflash but just thought I'd bring that up in case this is not something that will be fixed when I get around to going thru that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
It sounds like you got a reboot for being in a no-signal area. These are rare now but not unheard of. You can try reflashing the EC05 modem then updating to EI22 modem again. Also try to put your phone in flight mode. The radical change in battery indication is battery stats bug. Removing the battery for a couple of minutes or rebooting with a charger will often bring you back up to where you were.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pablomentabo:
Ok, thanks for the help again. I do put it in flight mode now, it was just something I noticed that happened in the past or when I would forget to do that. Just thought I'd bring it up. It only seems to happen at parts of the mall or in certain Target stores where I know they do not have any signal
[Epic 4G Android Development] ostrich69:
Thanks Kenny I could have swore I did that earlier and it was grayed out and I couldn't click it but that was on v2 now I'm on v2.1 and it work anyways thanks a bunch
[Epic 4G Android Development] saramon:
Well I reflashed this, just so I could have a better starting point at ironing out my battery drainers, and got everything setup last night. I took it off the charger at 12 last night, and we are going on 8 a clock now for me, and I have not lost a percent, not one. Amazing.

Well, it was in airplane mode from 2 to 6, so we could say about 4 hours of standby use. Still awesomesauce

---------- Post added at 03:32 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:24 PM ----------

That isn't what I am referring too, I could easily boot into cwm for that too, its a matter of the phone showing a little extra place to put battery life. For instance, when I would power down the phone, fully charged, and connected to the charger, it would go to the battery charge display showing that there is still some left to go, after that fills up, then you run the calibration. Can't do that if the phone don't power down.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Pibe38:
I was affected by the horrible lag that some users got on some of the latest Samuari kernels. At first I thought it was my launcher (ADW EX), so I went looking for options.

I tested Zeam and it was fast, lightweight, but lacking in features (which I believe is pretty much the way it is designed).

I then tested TW 4.5 and used it for a while. It worked, but it's very buggy. And after booting, apps on SD storage took a long time to load.

I went back to ADW EX and I have to agree that it's very fast after the recent updates. I honestly cannot notice a difference from Zeam. And my SD card apps are available and load almost immediately.

By the way, I did end up switching to ShadowKernel.

Plus 1 from me.

You can use the Voltage Control app to determine OC and UV. Some kernels may OC by default, but it is rare to see a kernel that will automatically UV because processors are all different and do not behave the same under the same conditions.

This applies to OC as well, but I have seen kernels that OC to 1100 Mhz after flashing.

My shut down menu worked fine until I flashed ShadowKernel. It broke my boot to recovery option and just reboots. This also happens with SleeperROM and the developer of ShadowKernel is aware and working on it. Not the end of the world in my opinion.

I also flashed the TW lockscreen a long time ago, and that never broke my shut down menu.

I do not have any tweaks applied, so that could be it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Samurai kernel has been fixed and is running quite well on my phone. I have used shadow and I get intense lag from THAT kernel. Samurai is the best kernel I have ever used and is getting better everyday... I would love it if you stick with that one but if not its cool... I know how to flash it over...
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I will be releasing new version very soon (most likely this weekend). This problem is fixed for SleeperROM. I suspect the problem is the same for Legendary, but I will confirm before releasing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jarcher12:
I have the exact same thing. And I have wiped and re flashed several times. Lately my wall paper has turned off by itself too :(

That is not typical. You should do a factory data reset and try it. Do not restore anything. Just grab a launcher or browser from the market and set it as default, reboot and check it. If it is good then there is bad data in your backups. Restore only what you absolutely have to have then do the rest manually.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mjh8812:
I still keep experiencing the lag with even the latest samurai kernel..not running any other mods with it..I keep having to revert back to 2.8.0 to get rid of the lag..I've changed the settings in voltage control too a bunch on the latest samurai kernels and nothing fixes it..hopefully when an update of this rom is released everything will be ironed out..some people aren't experiencing any lag though, or they're used to a slow phone..

Edit: I played with the i/o scheduler and govenors and seemed to have fixed it..

[Epic 4G Android Development] hoffman1984:
Ok... It's the holiday season.. themers and fixes are running a bit thin these days... I have a 2.2 build, but i don't feel it's ready... it's all stable, just missing the 4g toggle, and i won't update the kernel until i've seen more feedback. Also, no modified updater-script so no fancy if else updates... straight backup and restore. Let me know what you all think. All i need are a few positive responses, and i'll start uploading.
