Excellent rom... Quick and snappy, everything works great, no FCs. Some status bar tweaks and id be in hog heaven, and even though I'm not too fond of red, the speed makes me overlook it.

Been going back and forth between this and viper rom all day
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
White theme is almost done.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
I can't wait to see what you have created for this rom next
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xalky:
On the edge of my seat waiting for the new release. Any other new features besides the theme?
[Epic 4G Android Development] stilesja:
I am not really one to request things but one thing I have noticed is the lack of a good deep purple theme. Computerkid said he was making one a long time ago but it ended up being a little on the pink side of purple. Its a fine line but I think the potential is there to make a really sharp theme around the right shade of purple.

Oh and I love your work man. That ef02 rom of yours was gorgeous the of it Screenshots made my try gingerbread leaks for the first time. You are an asset to our community and a good guy! Thanks for all you do (especially helping with miui!)

I was actually working on a purple theme before I started working on my kernel. I've been meaning to go back to it. Has a nice dialer and messaging so far :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] HumanXv2:
Ya know I hate red...really hate it, but it is growing on me. Using the Samurai Ronin5, and it is very nice. Battery seems to be doing good so far. I love it
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xalky:
You can use one of Travismorenos themes from the theme section. Just make sure you follow the instructions for loading mtd themes if your on mtd.
[Epic 4G Android Development] HumanXv2:
Yeah I know how to do it pretty well by now=) My kingdom for a transparent status bar without having to use cm7 or miui=(

Sir - Your kernel has been the backbone of my Epic since the first release. Currently running 1.0.6+ and loving it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bpdfs:
Any massive problems anyone from being on MTD???? Everything good??

Can i install the shake and bake theme on top of this
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
No issues whatsoever.

Yes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] HumanXv2:
Mtd is great..yes you can flash themes, you have to go into mounts and storage and mount system before you flash
[Epic 4G Android Development] bpdfs:
you cant just flash a theme like you do on BML??? You have to do it different now?
[Epic 4G Android Development] HumanXv2:
Yes you have to do it different, but you do it in the cwm menu. Not a big deal
[Epic 4G Android Development] bpdfs:
please explain, or link a thread that shows it.. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
It is essentialy the same process. Do your pre theme wipes, then go to mounts and storage- mount system, flash theme, unmount system and reboot. It is only one extra step and all done in cwm. There is a thread in the themes section titled mods and themes that marcusant made to explain it if mine didn't make sense. But once in cwm it will make sense. I promise

[Epic 4G Android Development] ProDriver77:
I'm sure this has already been answered, but I'm not really looking to read through 70 pages of this thread to find it:

Will the MTD version of this ROM automatically convert me to MTD if I'm currently on a BML ROM, or need I flash a MTD kernel first (assuming such exists)?

I do know I need to flash from ACSRecovery5 to CWM5 to make the covert. Is this still correct?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bpdfs:
why are their 2 version, one wiht broken camera and one with camera fixed? why would anyone want the broken camera one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:

[Epic 4G Android Development] bpdfs:
ohh I see.. Also QBking has a video for version 1... Is there a vid for install for version 2 with mtd? or is it same thing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Its the same
[Epic 4G Android Development] lorenza:
Oy !!!!!!! \0/
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shiftlock:
This rom will convert you to MTD, flash a compatable kernel "samurai", and CWM 5 as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stilesja:
Sounds cool, if its half as good as your kernel it would be awesome :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
you are correct

It comes with a samurai kernel already, but after it is flashed, power back off then flash your new "tw MTD" kernel. not a "cm MTD" kernel. just thought i would add that since there are both out there now. my phone loves samurai ronnin5, very fast and smooth and if you are into oc/uv you will have best results with control freak on that particular kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Do not flash acs recovery after flasing an mtd rom... acs recovery does not play nice with mtd... stick with cwm that the rom flashes for you...

Will V2 work with the EC05 Modem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] markstibbyspot:
Hey marcusant,

Just want to let you know that I am on your old rom. V4

Installed the new samurai kernel and gps flash fix.

This phone is now perfect. Everything works! 4g, gps, etc. I noticed my 3g is way faster too after the new samurai flash.

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shiftlock:
Sorry that was my bad, I didnt read my post i guess. It doesnt flash ACS Recovery 5. It only flashes CWM5. thanks for the correction

*fixed*
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
i am not sure, but why would you want to downgrade your modem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] carsalbuja:
Amen for v4 , it was a sweet creation the only issue I had was very low quadrant scores that's why I upgrated to the others but that was the most stable rom of all that I have tried.

What are your quadrant scores with new samurai just wandering??
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
ROMS AND MODEMS ARE INDEPENDENT! This means any rom will run on any modem... you can run an eclair rom with ei22 modem if you wanted to... hope that clears it up for you!
[Epic 4G Android Development] zman519:
Well you can't run DI18 modem with EC05.

Flash a newer kernel... should fix that...

Whats going on now? Just flash the newest shadow kernel... Also take phone.apk from another rom/theme. These should all be fixed today in v3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bpdfs:
Dont know, have not flashed it yet, Just people saying GPS is not working..
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Here is the proposed changelog for v3:

+phone.apk force close fix

+GPS fix

+Framework tweaks

+(add swype back?)

+More battery tweaks

+Stock theme

+Flashable themes: lockmod stock, AOSP and lockmod red, AOSP and lockmod othercolors, AOSP and lockmod ICS

+Speed optimization
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
nothing new, just some people that have not flashed this rom before. same stuff we figured out last month is all.

edit...

WHAT v3 today...oh jeeze. i am super excited now. it is going to be a great friday!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Flashing the newest shadow kernel will fix gps

This was an issue as v1MTD was released the same minute as the first MTD rom and that kernel had gps issues. The kernel I used on this was also made during early MTD and has the same GPS issues. This will all be resolved in v3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] plasmata:
Can't wait! I'm a newbie and didn't want to have to figure out how to patch the known fixes. I've been patiently waiting for this for weeks. Thanks for the great work Marcusant.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
to be honest i got used to not having swype, then flashed this viper rom and have it back. the keyboard just seems too busy(imo) and cluttered.

so i am okay with no swype
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
So apparently including Swype.apk is considered warez...

Just installed v3 and the GPS is now broken. I was running your old ver 5.5 and it worked fine.

Also the clock's last number is cut off in portrait mode but ok in landscape mode.

I know this is a stupid question but where can I find these themes: +Flashable themes: lockmod stock, AOSP and lockmod red, AOSP and lockmod othercolors, AOSP and lockmod ICS

I'm specifically looking for the lockmod red theme but didn't see it in the Epic Theme section.

Love the new v3 red theme, thanks for getting it up so fast. The red theme fixed the missing clock digit.

Thanks Marcusant for the fantastic ROM!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xalky:
I'm running this now... seems great. Runs excellent. It was a pretty painless install. I did a titanium backup of all apps and data and I've been selectively reinstalling the apps and some data for things like voicemail and important memos.

???Any idea where my text messages might be. I've gotten them back before thru titanium with batch restore, but I don't want to clutter things, I just need a few texts back that had some important info saved on them???

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:

lookin good so far but google search wont work
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shiftlock:
Wow marcusant, this has got to be the smoothest running rom I have ever used. Even compared to the likes of syndicate frozen and some of the viperroms. Very well done. I like that all of the framework mods are functional such as the scrolling button and power menu. I don't know if you plan on adding the lockscreens back in later or not, I really like the sgsII lockscreen. Also gps didn't work initially but I got it working again with some permissions mods. Ill try to dial in exactly what it was that got it working because I just changed everything that said gps to read and execute. everything else works 100% and I really like the simple theme. Thanks a ton for this one!

Edit: I also have the issue with the clock on the lockscreen.

@greenmuggy. Just reinstall google search and make sure that you are picking the right one in the widget menu. For some reason 2 of them showed up for me so you might want to check
[Epic 4G Android Development] robrob:
Changing to the new v3 red theme fixed the clock digit problem.

The gps permissions fix for v3 is surviving reboots.

After the gps fix and red theme flash everything seems perfect with v3 MTD.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mocsab:
Lockmod missing?

I really like V3 - and would love to have this theme with Lock Mods - having said that - I also like the way you have toned down the red in the actual theme for this Rom - I don't know if it is possible, but would love to have this rom - with this theme - and your modified lockmods -

I know you get this all the time, you work your tail off to create something cool - and then everybody wants their own version of it - add this - do that - so - for my part - while I would love to have lock mods and this theme - I am grateful for what you have done and would be cool with it just the way it is.

THANKS!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xalky:
I had to do this a different way, I used Root explorer app because I couldn't see the hidden system filed thru es file explorer. In root explorer I navigated to the file location and the long touch gpsd , a window pops up and I clicked permisions, then checked the boxes in the pattern indicated above. 6) ????, and 7) profit, were non existent in my method but gps seems to work fine now.

On another note : I still can't find my text messages in the titanium backup files? Any ideas?

I normally wouldn't care but there were some important invoice #s that were in one particular text. Those #s are worth about. $7000 to me....business stuff.

Worse comes to worse I can make a phone call and get them back, I guess.

Thanks marcus for another awesome rom.

Btw: I'm finally on mtd to stay this time. ;-)
