[Nexus S Android Development] zipredictive:
This rom is outastanding thank you so much fellow countryman
[Nexus S Android Development] kptnk:
so the alpha 1 release is still not flashable with cwm ?
[Nexus S Android Development] 4I-I:
Does usb work on this rom?
[Nexus S Android Development] :
all these roms need XXKI1 i guess.
[Nexus S Android Development] lillfredo:
When Will be the realse of the official upgrade please ?thank u to respond to me
[Nexus S Android Development] rentaric:
Only Google knows. Current "ETA" is "several weeks after the Galaxy Nexus launch" which is between Christmas this year and early Q1 next year.
[Nexus S Android Development] proxuser:
rom doesnt boot because there is missing libarys & firmware files from vendor folder. i mixed it rom with from kwiboo. lets see what will happen :D
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
plzz share with me..

hope wifi works for me in your version
[Nexus S Android Development] xsteven77x:
Everyone is waiting to hear what the difference is with kwiboo. Is this more functional or better?
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
thatsss unclear..

waiting and waitingg :P
[Nexus S Android Development] proxuser:
there are no much difference with kwiboo's rom.

please tell me bugs from kwiboo's rom then i can test them on this and compare.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
for me: wifi doesnt work.. thats the biggest problem for me. ( I pm'ed you about it)

usb storage doesnt work, it only works when you use it via recovery.

everything else is fine for me.
[Nexus S Android Development] iGoogleNexus:
=P

[Nexus S Android Development] saryu:
wifi does work after you apply wifi patch
[Nexus S Android Development] mike.b93:
Officially:

Not working

- Data usage statistics (* especially setting a limit)

- USB storage

some minor things like the wifi reception in the status bar. stays grey
[Nexus S Android Development] DaX05:
A lot of work still left to do but good job!
[Nexus S Android Development] SS2006:
is this any different then kwiboos..in theory?
[Nexus S Android Development] HeavenlyWinds:
still needs work.
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Well, I finally bought my Nexus S ^^

In the meanwhile, I started developing my own Kernel - based on CM7 sources, made to support Backlight Notifications and Backlight Dimmer (thanks to Exekeel).

Also, I am uploading a new version of the ROM: the first beta version.
[Nexus S Android Development] MultiCulti:
so, will still be a GB Kernel? ...

do you have an changelog for it?

edit.:

AND, do you have the patches for the mass storage included in your kernel?
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Right now, it's the only choice possible. As soon as Kernel sources for 3.0 will be released I'll compile them.

A changelog is coming soon.

No, patches for mass storage are not public yet, but I hope Kwiboo will release them soon.
[Nexus S Android Development] MultiCulti:
i hope too :D
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Build Beta1 re-uploaded to fix Home button behavior on i9023.

Changelog:

* New Kernel

_ Added BLN.

_ Added BLD.

* New system files

_ Fixed WiFi module.

_ Fixed i9023 Keypad.

* "Pure" AOSP build, flash Google Apps separately.
[Nexus S Android Development] freakness51:
does mass storage work with this kernel?

i'm using kwiboo's rom but in his kernel BLN doesn't work... :(
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Unfortunately not, I'm still waiting Kwiboo's kernel sources (or tuna's official sources release) to add UMS to this ROM.
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
very nice rom man! :D.. only :(

wifi doesnt work.. it hangs at turning wifi on..

beta1, nexus s i9023, did a full wipe/cache/dalvik cache
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Mmm... That's strange, since I can turn my wifi on/off without any issue!

Anyway, I'll check asap!
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
Thanks. Hope you find something.

[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Have you found my sources useful? ;) I hope so!
[Nexus S Android Development] SA-07:
I used my sources ;D

But thanks anyways!
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
Well, that's ok ;)

Is USB gagdet mode enabled in your kernel? I can't find the patch online and Kwiboo is not replying to my pm :/
[Nexus S Android Development] SA-07:
Nope I haven't done those
[Nexus S Android Development] AndroidUser00110001:
Did you try the modified Koush kernel with your ROM? USB Storage works with it when I tried. I am about download ROM and install and test it out with the modifed kernel again and see what other bugs pop up. From what I recall, your ROM seemed the smoothest so the more things are fixed the better :)
[Nexus S Android Development] Morpheus90:
I didn't try Koush's kernel, but Kwiboo's one made the trick for sure.

Anyway, it's not important to get it working using a binary kernel compiled by others, I'm trying to make my own kernel from AOSP sources but it's hard when others do not share (GPL-licensed) sources.

That's why I'm looking for this patch! ;)
[Nexus S Android Development] thegtfusion:
@Morpheus90 any news on my wifi problem? :confused:

EDIT: I attached a logcat of the problem maybe this helps..

I am testing it whit pleasure. I made a ROM backup and installed the Franco Kernel of 291111. Now speed cpu at 1,2 ghz score antutu 3106.

I wait for a good usb storage connection.

And have my language.

Great work

Thanks

[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
DRockstar has been devoting and putting a lot of effort into this project in the last couple of weeks(even longer than weeks) and this is a look into what we'll be getting when official comes out. Information to test is at the bottom of this page.

Here are some screen shots from within the recovery.(CWM 5)

Main Screen when you boot into recovery. Vol Dwn Camera Power.

Advanced Menu

Mounts

Install Zips

Nandroid

If you want to get to know more about it you can join irc.irondust.net, #Epic CWM 5 download is within the Topic, no reposting of the links(to any test builds) on this site would be greatly appreciated, thank you. :)

We now have Official Rom Manager support. :)
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
What is the need for another cwm? Is it that it supports mtd file system?
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
The CWM we currently have is not official. Which is why we're stuck on 3 while many other devices are going to be on 5 and onwards. This is breathing some life into our Epic.

MTD is not a filesystem, it is to be as simple as possible a partition map, where our filesystems reside. Current we reside on BML which is a proprietary mapping from Samsung of sizes for our partitions, why System is limited to a certain size and data and cache are as well and they've never changed. Moving to MTD gives us(finally) control over how much space is given to a specific partition on our device. While on MTD we're to be on yaffs2 which in itself is a filesystem but when combined with MTD it as a whole is MTD. As a platform we've moved onto. I'm being as vague as I can on the premise that if I was more exact it would begin to counter itself or not make a lot of sense, I hope I answered your question lol. :)
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Is testing going on right now? If so, how can I get in on it?

Edit: read op
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
That didn't really answer the question. What is different about CWM 5 for the Epic than CWM3? And why do we need it? I still use the old Odin and Heimdall. They work fine.
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
Sorry I should have responded as soon as this post was published...

Firstly, this is a valid test for an official port of cwm 5 to be included in ROM Manager, our first official cwm since v2.x

cwm 5 brings tar backups, that have the fs type of the backup in the tar names. Restoring those backups will automatically format to the fs type that is noted in the backup file names. Also the menu and keycodes have been improved.

I would have done this sooner, but before I could, I had to write the function for formatting rfs myself in the official cwm sources, before I could even get to the point of it being official...

Hope this clarifies some things, and I will appreciate any feedback in the #epic channel.

---------- Post added at 12:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:20 PM ----------

Also, I'm being poked and prodded almost every minute to port this to an mtd version, which I'm working on now.
[Epic 4G General] nikon120:
It would be nice to give the user the ability to give a custom name for newly created backups. The auto assigned date/time naming convention is helpful, but being able to give the backup a custom name would also be helpful.
[Epic 4G General] atavarius:
This will come with official ROM manager support. However you are already able to do this by changing the folder name and re-hashing the files.
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
THX 4 the update and THX 4 all the hard work you put into making our EPIC a better phone :)
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Thanks DR, that answered my question. Very informative and nice work. I like the cyan letters, easy to see.

Thanks for your hard work! Can't wait to give this a try!
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
Sweet! Nice to see this posted.

I know it's under testing, but is it stable for the most part?

Are there any risks of using is to flash roms and make nandroid backups?

Or are there just features missing/buggy?
[Epic 4G General] duce102:
+1

I flash it through the acs recovery and it booted into cwm5 perfectly. I made a backup and it went pretty fast. I'll continue and test the USB mount, restore, and other features soon.
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
Actually, by the time I had AproSamurai post his pics here, a good amount of testing had already been done, and it appears so stable so far that I'm ready to submit it to ROM Manager... I wanted more people to test, to see if anyone can catch anything we might have missed.

I agree. It's good to go.
[Epic 4G General] metalblaster:
CWM 5... finally... You guys are on fire. Would love to help you guys test the current build. Had to edit again, Flashed CM7 then backed it up then wiped and flashed ICS v5, backed it up. Was able to switch between the 2 with out converting the file systems manually. Great job.

Awesome! I think I'm gonna try it soon :)

You should, it's absolutely bug free. And it's nice to look at as a positive. :) Haha.
[Epic 4G General] cornaljoe:
Tested and I can confirm everything is working perfectly. Even the reboot recovery option. It used reboot into the stock recovery or whatever was installed there. Great job! Looking forward to the official release.
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
I'm using this version on galaxy tab and 1 request, can you get rid of all the god damn no's when you go to confirm something?
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
wow, I'd want to confirm your mounts on the tab before you use this, using a recovery meant for another device can be dangerous. Especially the restores!

As for the confirmation "No", I'm trying like hell to get a push to official cwm source that will allow this for everyone... officially. It would require a file /sdcard/clockworkmod/.one_confirm to be present. I'm truly hoping that koush will approve this commit, and that it will be included in the official build.

chris41g was kind enough to code this, and make a pull request to the official source for this.

[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
I think he meant the cwm version not your build.
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Correct, pershoot ported it on Galaxy Tab.
[Epic 4G General] Drakkhen1977:
An Idea

How about adding a feature to boot into download mode straight from recovery?

Useful for modding with Odin after making a recovery backup.
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
I have looked into that a little bit... adding download mode technically isn't that hard to do, but at the moment, it does require a source edit the would require another C define to implement.

Koush didn't even want a define for my rfs formatting... All I can do is write some code and see if koush will accept it.

Sent from my Samsung Epic4G
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
Oh, koush....
[Epic 4G General] DRockstar:
Just so you know, koush has given an OK to do download mode as official, so look for that soon :)

Update: ROM Manager has the Epic 4G as official now ;)

[Epic 4G General] suarezl2:
So does this mean we can flash recovery through clockwork mod?
[Epic 4G General] jimmyz:
took the leap and tried to do it (Im running the mostlystock rebuild w/ mkiask kernel). When I select reboot into recovery it appears to attempt to replace the stock recovery with the CWM but then the phone reboots. Maybe the kernel needs to be rom manager ready? Looks like it isn't ready quite yet
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
The recovery itself is ready. You need a kernel which does fully support reboot to recovery. Rom Manager readiness comes from official CWM not an official kernel. Developers in time will include reboot to recovery into their kernel if they feel the need.
[Epic 4G General] jimmyz:
thanks for the info- can I flash the "recovery-update.zip" that rom manager placed on my sd card to give me the latest CWM 5?

EDIT- did it and how have the CWM 5!
[Epic 4G General] skyjedi:
Installed rommanager on legendary. 4.0.1 flashed cwm and reboot into recovery works fine.

Update: Installed legendary rc1 via rommanager with cwm5 without any issues.
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
How do I get cwm 5 to boot using three finger salute? Flashed with rom manager and then flashed the update recovery.zip that it put onto my sd card and still no dice. It will boot into it if I click reboot recovery within rom manager but not if I use the three finger method. Any ideas?

This Epic is Legendary!

Does this mean that ERA, ACS and other Epic ROMs can be downloaded directly in ROM Manager in the near future?

[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
Edit- I got it to work... found the odin tar and flashed that... now reboot to recovery from within rom manager works as well as three finger method and reboot to recovery within the legendary rc1 rom also
[Epic 4G General] poit:
1. What happens if you try to use this on a stock kernel that doesn't support reboot to recovery? do you just not get that feature or do bad things happen?

2. Is there any backwards compatibility with CWM 3? Can you restore CWM3 nandroid backups? What about mods made for CWM 3? Can you install them using CWM 5?
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
Oh ok, I get what you're saying.

1.You are able to, you'd just have to power down and do the 3 finger boot. Which, we've been doing for a long time so it's not too much of an inconvenience. And going into recovery from Rom Manager may be a bit odd. I myself am on a personal kernel which supports reboot to recovery so I wouldn't know the outcomes. But 3 finger would be best to be safe about it.

2.Yes, full backwards compatibility. :) CWM 5 backups preserve filesystem type and integrity, so you can be on a RFS rom go back to a backup that is EXT4 and it'll auto convert you back. CWM 3 backups work as well, but the auto convert feature is solely for CWM 5 backups. You should come across no problems at all. When it was in test phase(which for DRockstar is without any major bugs) I restored CWM 3 backups to be sure all was fine and it worked out great for me.

If you do have any issues, let me know, I've got you.
[Epic 4G General] lbe:
Couldnt get it stick flashing from Rom manager, where can I find the tar file to Odin it?
[Epic 4G General] poit:
I used CWM 3 to flash the zip file and it worked fine. Others have reported issues with using Rom Manager to install.

Both the tar and the zip are in the developer section.

[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
So the "colonel" in your sig works fine with this updated CWM / ROM Manager ?
[Epic 4G General] AproSamurai:
lol, yes however, I'm not sharing it just yet. I'm sure nubernel has reboot to recovery in it. :)

If you know how to compile you're more than welcome to do so, but I need to fix some things or add them in before I let people use it other than myself. Nothing special.
[Epic 4G General] TexasLTE:
THX ! Hope U get that fully working and "sharable" soon. :)

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Gaugerer:
The more you use the Note the more you appreciate it's unique features which are not often highlighted in professional reviews. For example, I thought I had a screen colour problem and was easily able to take screen shots to post here for help, which I got. I also captured a screen shot of a Stockmarket chart then cropped it before emailing it. When the Note is being reviewed more attention should be paid to these amazing features instead of worrying about it's size.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] spfraggle:
Here here. I find the size perfect and the features are amazing. Clearly the best device I've ever owned

[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] VityaSmith:
Hey guys, so me and my best friend bought Nook Tablets yesterday after seeing all the cool things that the rooted Color could do. Weve been playing around with it, and with the help of some threads here have gotten Go Launcher and all those basic apps to work like the Amazon Store and file managers and such.

Ive also got a fun game called Zombieville USA working after many attempts. However, for some reason not every apk i try installing works, and i was wondering why that is. For example, i tried for a while to get GameBoid working so i could play GBA games. It would install, then ask me to locate a bios file, which i then downloaded and got it to recognize, but after i open the actual Rom, it would run for a second and then stop.

Other apks give parsing errors, others just dont work. My friend just successfully got Fruit Ninja to work, and thats pretty much been our achievement of the hour. Were new to android and the tablet scene for that matter, but very well acquainted with jailbroken iPod Touches.

tl;dr why cant i get every app to work? Thanks for taking the time to help :)
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] rmm200:
Apps that don't work

One of the reasons might be that the Nook Tablet has only a subset of the hardware the typical Android Smartphone has.

No GPS, no accelerometer, etc.

Even some of the hardware it does have, like blue tooth, has no software drivers in the stock Nook operating system.

If the application you are trying to run is dependent on one of those missing resources, it may well fail. Missing libraries might be downloadable.

Your best bet will be applications known to run on the Amazon Fire, which has a comparable feature set. Rest will be try it and see.
[Barnes & Noble Nook Tablet] VityaSmith:
Alright that makes sense, thanks. Ill go look around that forum then and see what i can dig up
[Sony Tablet S] Guitardave:
I've just seen that the Tablet S 16gb model has been reduced to £349.99 at PCWorld. That didn't take long! I might hold fire until after Christmas and see if it drops to £299.99

[Sony Tablet S] Guitardave:
And the 32GB model is down from £479.99 to £429.00.

These are pretty significant price drops considering the tablet has only been out for a couple of months. Sales not too good?... Or is there a newer, faster, updated version on the horizon already? Did somebody say quad-core?...

Anyways, sales are just number, IMO Sony S is better than Galaxy Tab!!
[Sony Tablet S] reeser:
Find that hard to believe, I mean wasnt some shop in UK offering a free LCD Tv with purchase of S Tablet on release? That alone would have broken 500 sales.

Yup that is the link! :)

Global sales numbers are also below expectations according to reports. :(
[Sony Tablet S] wallyworld17:
Yes Sony has a great product but they bungled it. For the same price the iPad is a far better package and now the well-marketed kindle fire will destroy the other tablets. There's no way Sony could sell this beauty unless they integrated their content in a cheap and/or elegant way. And that ain't gonna happen.
[Sony Tablet S] pcoulson:
Not sure why anyone should be shocked that the price has dropped to be honest-it happens all the time with technology and can be expected. When I bought a fancy laptop a few years back, intel released the i3, i5 and i7 a month later and the price of my laptop plummeted.

In the end though, I researched the available tablets like a madman and am completely happy with the sony tab... it does what I bought it for very well, is getting updates and will only get better in time!
[Sony Tablet S] ps3taker:
Hard to believe indeed . First 100 buyers got free 32 inch led tvs. That would mean a fifth of all sales was from a single morning in a single shop. Maybe the 500 figure is not true. Just playstation association should have created more interest.
