google maps sucks since about v5.0

it remains in running processes even after closed

and it cant be stopped...just comes right back

i'd love to get an older version

but until then i freeze it and use mapquest which actually isn't horrible.

Is there a transparent sms that will work for this? So far so good on this rom....no issues yet.

if this has tweaks for battery that random rom doesn't have, if I flash this and then the random rom theme in the themes section, would I lose that stuff?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sterfreak:
Bugs

A couple of bugs I have found so far.

1) When downloading and installing a market application, it stays in the notification bar as both downloading, and incorrectly 'updating' instead of installing/installed.

2) This might just be me because I changed to the themed swype, but when selecting text, I only get one selecting tool, and the select word/select all/copy/cut/paste icons show, but not the wording below them. like the icon is cut off part way.

Other thoughts: I love this theme. Wish I had a red swype to go with it. And a more....fiery background. Yeah. That would be sick. Keep up the good work, sir.

[Epic 4G Android Development] carsalbuja:
Ok soooo I tried CM9 and all I gotta say is.......: MARCUSANT PLEASE PLEASE MAKE A V4!!! . The set up is fancy as heck I'm not gonna lie and it has more options than a 2012 bmw 7 series fully loaded but I feel it slooww compare to v3 and to make it worse I can't even edit the stupid APN which I need to do to get mms in my network to work.... so anyways... general info for you guys here. V3 still the fastest rom I've tried :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrcollpepper:
Thanks. Just trying to keep a smile on the faces every where I go. Lol

sent from your mom's room! ha ha
[Epic 4G Android Development] Kiwi187:
Agreed. Been using CM9 for the last couple of days now. Slow as crap. I don't want to wait 3 secs for the phone app to open so I can make a call. Seems like a caching problem. Volume controls in settings do nothing. You still have to use the rocker to increase volume as the defaults don't stick. Provided lockscreen is annoying when I can't access waiting messages and missed calls straight from the lock screen. And man, do I sure miss the touchwiz feature of being able to swipe left or right to msg/call someone. One of *the* most simple and useful features you could include in any rom.

I don't see how touchwiz could be considered 'obsolete', when marcusantromv3 performs and provides everything someone could want in a phone, that other roms fail to live up to.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Lord Syrics Jr.:
Just a little heads up, at least on beta0, you CAN access that stuff... idk if its supposed to or not, but you can pull the status bar down and select what you wanna see. Granted that involves you pushing what you want vs sliding to it buutttt what can you do right. I agree... v4 needs to come.
[Epic 4G Android Development] osiris2600:
I'm trying out CM9 and while I like all the interface improvements the battery and performance aren't up to EI22/EL30 roms. Marcusant do you think CM9 will get close to the performance you see in these touch wiz roms?

I'm gonna echo what everyone else has been saying. This ROM is the fastest, most efficient one out there. It has been my daily driver since it came out, nothing else even comes close. V4 would be awesome , but only if it's better than this. You do excellent work Marcus. Thanks

Oh Yeah! Nothin better then this! i want V4 so bad!!!! :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] Naddict:
Plus one from me....was hoping Kennyglass would have done one (an FB or FC version) already;-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] osiris2600:
Damn marcusant, that sucks. Are you going to get a replacement epic or move on to a new phone?

If you do move on, we would definitely be willing to beta test what you have of V4 (as I recall there was only a problem with the launcher anyway)

If you need help with a new phone just let us know.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Congrats on receiving your replacement so quickly, now where was I?

Oh yeah....V4

V4

V4

V4
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I still do not care for touchwiz. I have honestly forgot how to kang the amount I did for this rom, lol. Just add a theme, and the supercharger to any other touchwiz rom and then you will have v4. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Okaaaaaaasy....hmph. Actually I have a nandroid of your V4 beta where I did an advance data restore and got past the FCs. It runs great. Thanks. Again glad you are back in Epicland with your replacement.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
Glad you are in Epicland again
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasLTE:
Sounds like it's gonna be up to kenny to post a link to that fully functioning version of V4 he has ..... ;) :p :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Personally, I think its time Kenny did a Rom! Perhaps v4 can be KennyRom v1???:cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
If I had a week to myself I would definitely figure out how to throw one together. Probably would make an FB15 since there is only 1 but alas between work, side jobs, family, and keeping up with the themes I don't have the time. I tried forcing Zeam into v4 but it still had a ton of FCs. So had to advance restore data there too. One day guys...one day.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasLTE:
LOL .... I remember reading another thread where someone keeps bugging Kenny to make a ROM but he keeps saying "no" ( can't remember which thread it is )

Kenny .... make a ROM ( darn it ! ) :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
I...think I see a TexasEpic "KennyRom" banner, coming soon!!!!:p
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasLTE:
LOL .... if that will make him decide to FINALLY make a ROM ..... oh , Kenny .... what U want on that new banner ? :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Ok...let's say I have v4 installed and themed, do a factory data reset to clean out my personal info, then run a nandroid on that, how would I make that a ROM to flash for you guys? Wasn't there a thread to make a nandroid flashable?
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Check your PM. I sent you a response, but in the event I am totally off-base, I don't want to make a complete a$$ of myself on the thread. At least not totally overtly. I do it enough in a subtle fashion.
[Epic 4G Android Development] osiris2600:
If this was possible you would be my hero, although the layout of CM9 is better than touchwiz, touchwiz just works, I can't wait to have my 30-50 hour battery spans again
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
I could just put up a clean nandroid for you to restore in cwm until I figure out this flashable thing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Works for me.

Tex???
[Epic 4G Android Development] TexasLTE:
Sure ... why not
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Quick question, I want to give this ROM a try. I'm currently running SleeperROM(MTD) with an El30 modem. So, a few questions. Can I flash this ROM with out doing anything else? I assume, wipe 3x. Can I use the EL30 modem? How's the battery life. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
They're both MTD, so you don't need to repartition or anything. I don't know if this wipes or not, but I would recommend Nan and TB backups first and then a full wipe b4 install.

Marcus or Kenny, would you agree?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Ok, thanks. i am going to give it a whirl. Another question, can you restore a backup from one ROM to a different ROM. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Something special is coming.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
To answer both questions, you can go from Sleeper MTD to thisveith no problem. It preserves data. You can restore data from Roms of the same firmware, such as an EL30 ROM to an EL30 ROM. Either Titanium backup or advanced data restore of a nandroid will work. YMMV and hiccups can occur.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Thanks Kenny, much appreciated!
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Further to Kenny's advice; I just Odin'd back to EL30 Stock (from Sleeper EL30), rooted, flashed CleanGB 1.1.2 and restored data via TB. Phone is crisp and flying again.

I think my Epic didn't care much for the FB15 modem!

Also, Marcusant told me a long long time ago that the data restore via TB was a bit cleaner than Nan, but as with all things Android;"to each, his own..."
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
OK, got this ROM running and so far I'm liking it. Just two more questions. I'm running it with the stock Kernel, any recommendations for a different one or stick with stock. Also. can I make a Nandroid back up of this and when I go to restore it, is there a way to tell the difference between my Sleeper nandroid and this nandroid? I hope that makes sense. Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Install ROM Manager. Hit the menu key in it. Choose manual flash override, choose Epic-MTD and clockwork 3.x.x.x. You can then use ROM Manager to name your backups. Both shadowkernel and Samurai have EI22 kernels available.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Thanks Kenny.

I'm actually running this ROM with an EL30 Modem. I'll look around for a kernel,
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Still has to be an EI22 kernel. The ROM is EI22.
[Epic 4G Android Development] osiris2600:
really, I thought v4 was el30, so beta v4 is ei22? Is there a way to make an el30 rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Thought you were talking about V3 since v4 was only beta. Then yes V4 beta is EL30.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sandman512:
Just to update, been running this ROM all day, moderate use and so far so good. Battery life has been excellent. Any reviews on kernels? Thanks.

Where can when "try" this v4 beta?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
With super thanks to Marcusant for being an awesome dude after I pulled a system dump of my working V4 and getting it themed and into a flashable, he has graciously allowed me to release it in my own thread. Big big thanks to Marcus. Look for The People's ROM to be released tonight or tomorrow.
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
Everyone thank Kenny and send him money and cigarettes...

(oh, wait; I'm thinking of my brother-in-law).

Power to the People!!

[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
The latest 2.2 is the best if your phone likes Samurai kernels. 2.1 is great if your phone prefers the FC19 leaked ROM. If your phone don't like Samurai kernels then you can flash 2.2 and then flash Shadowkernel 3.0.

Ran into a pretty big problem..

Every try I try to open the Messaging app, it instantly closes. Sometimes I get an error message, sometimes I don't. I tried restarting my phone and clearing my cache, nothings working. I really need my messaging app D:.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Speedin07si:
Did you do a clean install??? cleaning meaning wipe everything ... if so untill you get it fixed you can try using a 3rd party messaging app like GoSMS Pro (my fav.)...
[Epic 4G Android Development] HanMan5000:
Yes I did... It was working earlier, for the first few days. The problem started happening today.. I'll try to get GoSMS
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevans:
Clear the app data.
[Epic 4G Android Development] HanMan5000:
I went to the Messaging app and I don't have any options. Force stop, cancel, clear data, move to USB storage, clear cache, and clear defaults are all blacked out.

The problem is bigger than I thought: I just asked my friend to send me a message; and I didn't get it ..
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigtimeweb:
Marcusant is it you that is installing Desk clock?

If so is it the clockpackage.apk and is it safe to delete it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Clockpakage.apk is safe to delete. I delete it on every rom I use
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xalky:

Anychance someone can post some of the wallpapers from the older versions.. Expecially the 4 color X
[Epic 4G Android Development] csmasn:
Thanks for the ROM Marcus...

But is the Hotspot working yes or not? I don't care about 4G. I dont have any other access to the Internet. Still is ICS 5.1 by now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] HanMan5000:
Tried that, no luck.

I tried re installing the ROM (without wiping this time so I don't loose my sh) but it's still happening....
[Epic 4G Android Development] lcovel:
Better yet, I'm still on 5.5. Any chance of getting the wallpaper from Revival v1? Or, if there is a way to extract it from the rom itself?

Guess not.

Edit:

Found it, in case anyone else is looking for it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Speedin07si:
you might need to do the last resort option. Backup everything you want/need. Then Odin back to EC05 and start over... It's sucks but it'll probably fix your issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] HanMan5000:
I did a factory reset, cleared pre rom data, pre theme data, then re installed the rom and my messaging is working again. I backed up my Contacts app but it doesn't look like the restore is actually restoring my contacts. Oh well, I have a Superbackup backup which I know works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Speedin07si:
glad you got it working again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xalky:
Just restore the stuff you gotta have from backup. ie: if you restore messaging you might bring the old issue back from the dead. :cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] csmasn:
Installed.

Everything fine until now. Hotspot works only is not renamed. The red is not my color but Ill check some theme.

Thanks Again Marcus!

For some odd reason I have been getting a few reboots a day. They seems to happen under 2 different conditions....

1. When unplugging from charger in the morning (this is a known issue for some ROMs)

2. When I receive text messages every so often.

Also, when using Torch.app I get force closes like crazy...LOL. I am not *****in at all. Marcus did a great job on this ROM as he always does with all ROMs he makes. I just wanted to throw out there the problems I have been having in case anyone else is having them and to maybe get some feedback. I installed Marcus's ROM using ROM manager and CWM5 is installed. I came from ICS ACS v5.5

This ROM has GREAT battery life for me. I can plug it in over night and during the day, I am a moderate to heavy user and I get about 17-20 hours out of my battery. I do notice that my battery life seems to be a bit progressive to. I can be heavily using my phone for about and hour or two straight and the battery life will drop and then I stop using the phone and the battery life will progressively start building back up on its own. For instance, I had about 40% battery life last night and I had to use Torch as a flashlight. I used it for about 30 minutes, fighting with force closes, and then my phone shut off due to battery life being to low. I immediately booted the phone back up and battery life was at 3%. I let my phone sit for about 30 minutes and my battery life went up to 33% by itself....LOL.

I guess that's about it. Just giving some feedback. Thank You again to Marcus and everyone involved for a great ROM! I look forward to future updates.

Cheers!
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
try a different kernel, shadow kernel might work better for you. I got a forceclose with torch too, it worked sometimes, other times FCed, that was when I installed a rom over without wiping data, did you wipe data before installing?

2. My phone will lock up and run VERY slow (sometimes unresponsive) for about a minute every now and then... any ideas? VC settings that would help with this???

First off, Great ROM! Love the red theme, snappyness and battery life! After coming over from legendary I did run into some problems with a werid type of 'reset'. Randomly, the screen will stop responding (usually when unlocking screen or msg, but has been at random times), turn black, then do a restart of sorts where it scans the SD card for media again, lose all reception and data and rescans for that (like when you first reboot the phone). It only started after I flashed the ROM. I did do full wipe of data, cache and davlik before coming over from legendary. Is it my SD card or something to do with the ROM? Thanks for the help guys.
