Yeah Im' not sure what happened here but when I installed 1.0.08 my phone icon is gone and there is no way to open the phone / dialer.

EDIT: Weird stuff. I did a full wipe again & re install and its back!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jasonrr987:
I just flashed 1.0.8 and it didn't backup at all I think there is a problem with the backup script
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
Truly weird, i occasionally just get an incomplete data restore (rebooting before doing a flash solves this) glad you got it working!

Now that Maddoggin has released his lockscreen mod, the first proper stock themed Lockscreen mod is in the works for 1.0.09 my release cycle is 1-3 days if that tells you anything it.. i know we don't believe in ETA's here but this should be a quick release
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
what version of CWM and kernel were you previously running.

Did it take a while at the "Draining vitality. Please wait..." line or did it rush right past it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jasonrr987:
I'm running cwm 5 and it was iap the previous release, but it did take its time during the draining vitality, it looked like it was working but on reboot non of the data had restored
[Epic 4G Android Development] tps70:
Sensei -

I must confess my flash-a-holic tendencies posessed me to try CleanGB for a day - random reboots brought my experimentation to an abrupt end. :rolleyes:

After that mess, I wiped everything & flashed a clean installation of 1.0.07a last night. For me, it's worked out pretty well except for one weird little thing - a randomly flashing notification LED. That leads me to this question: since everything else is working perfectly, would you recommend flashing 1.0.08 over my current setup or starting fresh?

I'm running CWM5, your .07a version, and have made no kernel changes. I am, however, OC'ing & UV'ing using Voltage Control.

Just looking for your opinion (and that of anyone else who'd like to chime in as well!). :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
I have experienced this, the solution was to reboot the phone once before flashing. Not sure what the reasoning is or why that has worked, but there was another symptom which was that the Power Menu after a bad flash (where the data wasn't fully restored) was missing some parts, showing only

the power, reboot and recovery options rather than all of them.

i hope you had a backup, if you did and have the time, set your data back, reboot a couple of times after restoring the data, maybe even 3 times... and then try flashing. If you try this would you mind reporting back the outcome?

the notification led has been erratic through all of the GB leaks and EI22, my voicemail and gmail notification blinks the red led fine, but anything else that tries to use the led either doesn't work, or blinks randomly or stays on. i'm not sure at this time what the solution is, but the led is a feature of the kernel, and as noted by the erratic behavior of the charging notification light (red charging/blue full) so i think i've reached a wall on some of the issues with the rom where it depends on the kernel wizards to do their magic.. i decided against getting into kernel development because we have great things happening already, it's just that it seems there are bugs from samsung.

i always recommend upgrading, but you might want to wait a day while i build the maddoggin's lockscreen mod into the rom.

EDIT (non-related): ONLY 8 more thanks needed to hit 200! Who'll show their support and boost me there? Also, for those who are curious, my download stats for the total of SleeperROM releases are about to hit 5000 since initial release on the 14th, with 1.0.05 alone having been 1263 downloads and .06 and .07a together over 1000 downloads. An average of over 330 per day! Today .08 is already at 190 downloads. Glad i could offer this ROM to everyone and that it is so well liked!
[Epic 4G Android Development] syntax_erorr:
OK bluetooth crapped out again for me(on fresh install of 1.0.08). Same problem as before. Here is a small spinet of what alogcat spit out.

First few lines pertaining to blue tooth that have errors I think:

E/BTAPP_CONF(3459): Cannot open file /etc/bluetooth/did.conf

......more stuff.....

I/bluedroid(331): BTLD start retry count 20/20

E/bluedroid(331): btld start timed out

E/BluetoothEventLoop.cpp( 331): get_adapter_path: D-Bus error: org.freedesktop.DBus.Error.ServiceUnknown (The name org.bluez was not provided by any .service files)

The line above line is spammed in the logs, over and over. And finally it stops with the next lines:

A few reboots later, and it is back up. But if you see something in the short log above let me know.

E/BluetoothEventLoop.cpp( 331): Time out while trying to get Adapter path, is bluetoothd up ?

E/BluetoothEventLoop.cpp( 331): failure setting up Event Loop!

D/BluetoothEventLoop.cpp( 331): BluetoothEventLoop:socketpair[160 236] closed on error

D/dalvikvm( 7834): GC_CONCURRENT freed 832K, 58% free 3564K/8391K, external 1973K/2108K, paused 2ms+4ms

D/BluetoothService( 331): bt EnableThread giving up

I/bluedroid( 331): bt_disable...

I/bluedroid( 331): BTON_FMOFF_handling

I/bluedroid( 331): BTON_FMOFF_handling : receiving BT_OFF

I/bluedroid( 331): bt_stop_daemons( ctl_act: 0 ), soft_on_off: 0: Stopping daemons...

I/bluedroid( 331): Stopping bluetoothd...

I/bluedroid( 331): Stopping btld...

Any clues on where I could start to trouble shoot this? I noticed the log asks if bluetoothd is up. I did a # service list | grep blue and the only services listed are: bluetooth_hid, bluetooth_a2dp, bluetooth. I don't have a bluetoothd listed.

I do have a bluetoothd in /system/bin. If i try and run that from connect bot I get: "connect: Connection refused" over and over.

Starting from the top of the log, when it says it cannot open /etc/bluetooth/did.conf. I do not have this file on my phone, and looking at a log of a successful BT start up, it also complains about the file missing, but stills starts OK.

EDIT: After a few reboots it magically started up again. But if you see something obvious in the logs let me know.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jasonrr987:
No problem I'll take a nandroid now and test it out for you with a previous backup, ill check back later
[Epic 4G Android Development] tps70:
I seem to remember having the random LED notification light on a leak before. Thanks for the reminder. :)

Will the lockscreen mod be "baked in", or will it be removeable? I know a lot of people in our forums love that mod, and while it is great, I just prefer to use WidgerLocker.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Comando156:
I was 200th. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ultro:
I think that I shall make this my 1st EI22 ROM :3 Been trying to choose which one to try, and a hard choice since I've only flashed 1 ROM, ever. I appreciate how well informed this is being maintained; the detailed changelog, bugs, to-do's,and the Screenshots. I like to be kept in the loop at all times. Looking forward to 1.0.0.9 with Maddoggin's LockScreenMod. Been waiting for just that to officially make the switch to Gingerbread :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] robsbigfish:
I installed 1.0.08 on top of 1.0.07, everything is working great so far. I did notice AdFree needed to be updated, perhaps due to the kernel change? Also, AllShare force closes every time I open it. Not that I use it, but I recall reading about the issue in another thread.

Excellent work Sensei, looking forward to the lockscreen update!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Devtodi:
Yes, mostly when battery calibration is engaged. Don't reboot during the process.
[Epic 4G Android Development] toastyc12:
I manually installed 1.0.08 over 7a as well, Everything transitioned very smoothly. I did notice the flashing portion taking a bit longer than last time, but that's no big deal.

AllShare and Maps had been FCing on me, so I went ahead and reinstalled them...Having trouble installing AllShare, so I'll have to push it later.

Maps is giving me "Network Failure: This application requires a working data connection." Huh...It's even giving me this problem on Wifi.

EDIT: Another quick reinstall of maps solved this.

Everything else is running stable and smooth though, nice work on the update.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasAggie97:
I think I will install this ROM. It will be my first, but after looking at other options, this one seems to have all I need and nothing I don't....

Thanks, I'll post how it goes!
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasAggie97:
So far so good, flashed this a short while ago. Liking what I see. Is there any way to remove the web browser from the quick link button? Maybe add a 4th button?1

Also, I am fairly new to this. My question is about Titanium back-up after flashing this ROM. How does one restore everything, particularly the exisiting basic apps such as contacts, messaging, calendar, etc... Does one only restore the data or do we have to restore app and data if it already exisitng app on the new ROM?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ultro:
When you select to see the app list(TitaniumBackup), at the bottom are the backed-up apps that are not yet installed. You can select to restore app+data to recover the app entirely. If you want to recover SMS converations without overwriting a newly themed messaging app, restoring data is the way to go. Sometimes restoring app data to updated apps can cause problems(backed up app is v1, app installed is v2). Pick the most important ones and test them, less you restore the entire batch and see several FCs.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tps70:
I did a no-wipe flash from 1.0.07a to .08. My data made the trip, but I'm noticing little things here and there that are just a little bit off.

Here's what I've noticed so far:

My Home button doesn't respond at all.

Two attempts are required to unlock the phone (stock lockscreen and WidgetLocker).

Power Off menu only includes: Power Off, Reboot, CWM Recovery.

A couple of my apps have required a manual app/data restore with Titanium Backup to get the data to reassociate with the app. That's a first for me. I think I'm going to do a clean install unless someone knows how to fix these issues - I sure don't! :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasAggie97:
How do I turn on/off my 4G data?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tps70:
Two options:

Go to: Menu ->Settings -> Wireless and Network -> 4G Settings. From there, you can turn it on or off.

If you want it back up in your QuickPanel (in the notification area), Sensei has a file you can flash in the OP that will revert the modified QuickPanel back to stock. It's right under the main download links; look for: "Reset Scrolling Status Bar to stock (with 4g button)". Download that and flash it in CWM :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] toastyc12:
The lockscreen issue seems to happen with me regardless of how the ROM is flashed. your other issues are quite strange indeed, a re-flash is all I can think of.

I've been noticing a bug, and I'm not sure if I should reflash to fix it, or wait for a new update. Whenever I have wifi mode on, then switch it off, my phone never reopens a data connection over 3g until I reset completely.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
This is indicative of a bad data restore - the three option power menu, it's been mentioned recently when i asked if that had occurred. The solution was - to prevent from happening in the future, reboot the phone at least once (but best two times) before flashing (any ROM) if the data is to be saved. why this works, i don't know. I personally have experienced this and that was a solution for me.

I've noticed this, and i think it's a kernel issue, along with the 4G/Bluetooth issues. I know toadlife (CleanGB) is aware of the issue, as are the kernel devs but it seems to be a deep seated GB issue (that is exasperated by all the customization). One thing though, i've noticed that it's not so much a matter of the 3g never coming back, it just takes what seems like forever to reconnect. I'll look into this because it may just be a timeout setting.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zrmxp95:
I am running v1.0.08 and I have only had the phone app not showing bug.....but it went away after i wiped everything including /system which i norm do idk why i didnt the first time....but on the other hand this rom is running great and with v1.0.08 I have Facebook SNS running flawlessly....

System/etc and System/init.d Scripts

Hello All :-)

I have a dilemma and a question. For a few months now I have been I have been trying to implement data2ext/data2sd on my Epic without success. Only the Link2SD app and one of the many data2ext scripts that I've tried have worked, and only partially. Everything is good with those 2 until I reboot. Once I do that, the apps on the SD-EXT partition disappear. Basically my EXT4 SD-EXT partition is not mounting on boot as it should. For both the script I used and Link2SD to work, the system/etc or the system/init.d folders need to be enabled to run the scripts. It has been said that the new Samsung Gingerbread ROMs do not do that, which is why this doesn't work.

I've tried all the latest EI22 Gingerbread ROMs for the Epic without success, including this one. I do have to say that the Sleeper ROM is one that I still use most often, out of about 8 different ROMs that I have on my SD card ready to flash. My question is if this ROM (among other Epic EI22 ROMs) support EXT4 and and the running of init.d scripts, why on earth doesn't this function? The advice I was given was to either bake init.d support into a ROM myself or ask ROM developers to do so, but as far as I'm aware this is already the case with this ROM and others that I've tried.
[Epic 4G Android Development] phdeez:
Actually, it seems like the phone is "loosing" it's dns server(s) on wifi. I can disable wifi and it resolves fine. I perform an nslookup command on wifi and it reports the server address as 0.0.0.0. I switch over to 3G and I get server ips along with name resolution. My router is actually running as the dns server and it forwards requests to servers I specify (google public dns and open dns) so the server ip should be 192.168.0.1. All the other devices (comps, phones, consoles, tablets) work fine. This also happens at work.

Also, I cannot get 4G to activate... an ideas?

Issues with Phone number

I am having issues with this rom an other roms on the site cause my phone to call and send out text messages using my google voice number. I have uninstalled google voice but I am still having the issue. Does anyone know of a fix for this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Specialksg1:
Gotta log in to google voice on a computer and turn it off there. Even though you uninstall it, it keeps the settings intact til ya turn it off there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
Add the Google Voice Settings widget to your home screen, (takes 3x1 spaces) and click the 3rd button, it gives you the option to ask, always use gvoice, never use gvoice to make calls/text...

i think that's what you're asking

EDIT:

Specialksg1 has a point, i didn't understand your question

MMS error

I'm getting error 403: forbidden when receiving an mms. Does it work for everyone else?
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
If you want to discontinue using Google voice, after you uninstall it and all, you will have to call Sprint and have them switch everything back. Because Google voice is integrated with Sprint, it actually disables your Sprint voice-mail. It took about 5 minutes calling Sprint customer support. Hope that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
No problems here... Though i did just notice QuickPic has a problem (had to uninstall and install it)

When i called to ask about the procedure to go to and from Google Voice a couple of months ago (with number porting away from sprint) they said they don't recommend it because it will cancel my account as soon as the number is ported away and i will incur the early termination fee- - LOL - so i didn't, but that was after like 10 minutes waiting for someone who understood what google voice was.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Krusty_47:
That fixed everything right up. Thank you for your help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
ah...mine wasn't a ported number. I was using the google number on my phone

proxies?

I can see from running getprop that the sprint proxies are in place..For some reason, I can't find the location to remove them. In fact, in several places (after dialing ##3283# and entering my MSL) the process android phone force closes. Is this a bug and does anyone know where to change the proxy info?

Camera Noises

What changed with the camera audio? Is there some way to modify/delete a file to get rid of the horrifically annoying focus sound without downloading and reflashing?

The camera mod comes from this post, it's from EH06, but there are no differences with the current - supports the ON/OFF of geotagging, but the horrible beep and shutter are part of the firmware. This mod fixes them both

md5

SenseiSimple

Thanks for this, exactly what I'm looking for, flashing later tonight.

Any chance you could post the md5 for the download in the OP so we can be sure when we're getting good downloads and when we're not?
[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
I have noticed with all GB leaks that the phone no longer accepts many of the codes, but i hadn't seen it FC.

Looking into it.. i've always heard conflicting reports about the proxies having them in vs not, but it makes sense that you wouldn't want all your browsing filtered through sprint especially since all the sprint apps are removed..

:D Thanks!! Glad my rom has been a hit

Good idea! updated the OP with the MD5 next to the DL link

As for BT issues. Really weird but seems that two reboots in a row will fix it.

I was also wondering if anyone knows why a lot of instructions for roms have you whip data cache and dalvik 3 times. I mean if you format a partition, its destroyed right?

Sensei mentioned it earlier... if you turn on BT RIGHT AFTER a boot (I mean before the home screen is fully loaded) it'll stay on, even after reboots...

proxies

Hey I've been flashing updates when I catch them (I'm on 1.0.8 and haven't had to wipe yet *crossing fingers*) and just noticed that I can now access and change the proxy servers. Thanks!

Also, I'm sure everyone here has heard of the Carrier IQ business going on and I know that its removal was one of the selling points of the ROM but when I run the logging test app that TrevE provided it does detect two files present as being a part of the CIQ app: /system/bin/iqmsd and /system/lib/libiq_client.so. Are these files somehow necessary? If CIQ has been fully removed, why are they still present? FWIW, I don't recommend moving those files and rebooting...oh well.

Also, someone on another forum asked about the Samsung app Keytracer.apk. Is there anything there we should be concerned about?

---------- Post added at 10:20 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:03 PM ----------

So uh, *cough* anyone how how to make a cwm zip file that copies a couple of files from the sdcard back into their correct locations in /system/bin and /system/lib?
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasAggie97:
I found a problem on my ROM. My video files previously filmed on my Epic GB are not playing on the video player on the Sleeper ROM and neither are my Matrovska (.mkv) video files. Any chance there are downloadable codecs or updates? Anyone else having problems viewing video files?

So, I don't remember this ever happening before (it may just be a gingerbread feature), but my alarms are not affected by my phones volume anymore. As in I used to set alarms to remind me of things that would go off in class and just vibrate because my phone was set to vibrate, but now they go off no matter what setting my phone is on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Comando156:
This happens to me too, you have to long press the shortcut that you put there and select edit, then tap the box that has the short cut name, example if the app was xda that you dragged there, select or tap the box that says xda, this will bring up a dialoge to remap the shortcut action, then select launcher actions, and choose open/close application drawer, viloa, its fixed.... pain in ass. And you can't put it back unless you have some short of shortcut already there to remap it to.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasAggie97:
By long press, you mean tap and hold the icon? I have the camera shortcut in place of my app drawer icon and when I tap and hold any icon in the quick launch bar all it does is launch that app. I am not able to "edit" any icon in the quick launch bar at the bottom of my home screen. Am I doing something wrong or misunderstanding what "long press" means?

Thans again for your response. Makes me feel like at least my concerns are being addressed!
[Epic 4G Android Development] tclarkey:
Press and long hold the screen where there is room and select Launcher Actions. Then select "Open/close App Drawer" and drag that down to the quick launch bar.
