[Epic 4G Android Development] SenseiSimple:
I've looked into these, and i can't find a whole bunch of concensus, just speculation and paranoia. As far as the CIQ, i can't take credit for the actual modification, it is done by k0nane of ACS and we all build from the base modifications. as far as leftovers, there is a possibility that these files are, as it's said, heavily embedded in the platform, and such if they DID ever receive /transmit data, have been modified not to do so, i don't know the exact technical details of the mod.

did you get it restored? If you ever have a CWM backup, you can choose the advanced restore option and restore ONLY the /system partition. otherwise,

It's a safety sort of thing, just to deal with faulty memory (since we can't attest as to actual chip quality). i have always only formatted using the CWM mount/unmount setting to get rid of old data, otherwise most ROMs will wipe everything/reformat anyway (and if they save your data, it's a backup/restore process). But it's just to be sure that there is no missed data stuck in memory for whatever reason.

OK - SORRY for having gone AWOL, i'm glad you guys have been answering each others' questions - i've been a bit busy AND then trying to work with the lockscreen mod as it features some things that were already implemented in my rom but are done differently in the package. Theming is no problem, but things like the scrolling status have been integrated (incidentally, TSMParts still works with my scrolling status toggles since they are apparently from the same original mod - except democratized in TSM).

In working on this latest mod, i've come to the conclusion that in adding it, there is a major divergence from the original purpose of this ROM while adding no real performance or useful functionality - strictly customization. So after having spent about 14 hours preparing the latest update, i've decided to NOT include the lockscreen mod, as it (whether strictly coming from maddoggin's version, or my fully integrated - using original sources by teamsbrissenmod/TSM and manually adding piece by piece rather than just theming). As it stands, all lockscreen mod packages will not be compatible with this rom, since every edit/fix has been made by hand to work with each other, which is just as well because when i installed maddoggin's package, my phone ran hotter and lost charge at a greater rate - i'm not sure as to the reason since there was no obvious cpu usage in top, but that was my first sign to avoid this integration, YMMV with another rom. - I will be keeping the scrolling status bar, as i've gotten quite used to it, but will work on adding 4G toggle (should have done that instead of spinning wheels with new mods!).

The next update will address as many transient radio issues as possible, while acknowledging that we're all depending on the kernel devs to also focus some attention on what seem like deep seated samsung/gb issues. Furthermore, with news of a potential new OTA release, i will strictly be focusing on existing issues and not adding anything new to this rom.

On the task list is Codecs, Wifi/3g, 4G (kernel issue), stability, making sure included apps play nice, etc. 1.0.05, has so far been the most stable version, so i will be rolling back a few things to that version and keeping the best of the current.

I do plan on theming, as i've mentioned, subtle but consistent color changes to the stock appearance for different tastes, while keeping a professional looking phone.

Thanks for making SleeperROM your rom of choice for professional stock looks, a stable and fully integrated ROM!

**PHEW, long post!
