Super excited for the next release with GPS and External SD card working, keep up the great work!

Just wondering how you actually test that the abillity to call 911 without having the police show up at your house....

What happened to bubby we havent heard from him in a few days?

Last we heard he tweeted that he finally got 911 working on ASOP for the ET4G and he was going to test it out...

:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
Don't forget, people, it's a cell phone. They can't position your house like they can a land line without gps. With cell phones you could be anywhere in range of the cell tower they triangulate. So turn off gps and test away.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lifyre:
Because your number doesn't show up and there is no other way for them to find out who you are... I'm not saying don't test but don't think turning off GPS will protect you 100%

I don't know a good way to test if your phone can call 911 but your local police or fire might.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
that first sentence made laugh. 911 can get u in jail if misused people
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yglaotu:
Don't know why My EVDO doesn't work. Have to wait for offical release.:(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] datajosh:
Turning off GPS doesn't matter, you can't turn off E911 location.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] YarsRevenge78:
I'm guessing we can't call 911 because E911 isn't working, so you can't turn if off but you can break it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkPhoenix:
I am a Paramedic/Firefighter and I want to strongly discourage everyone from calling 911 for the purpose of testing your phone. As most of you are aware this number is for EMERGENCIES ONLY. The call centers most times are understaffed and sometimes over run with calls to the point where people have to call repeatedly just to get through. Having to wait mere minutes can seem like an eternity when your parent, child or loved one is dying. Even if you call 911 and quickly hang up you are still tying up the circuit and you might just tie it up at the same time someone else legitimately needs it. Not only that if they are able to identify you somehow they are required to send the police to your location to make sure that there's not a problem. This ties up more resources that could be used somewhere else. I am not aware of another way to test the 911 function. You might try calling the non emergency number and explain what you are trying to accomplish, maybe they can give you some advice. PLEASE DON'T DIAL 911 JUST TO TEST THIS. THE LIFE YOU SAVE MIGHT BE SOMEONE YOU KNOW.

Why so few comments?! This is AOSP boys n. Girls! Should hold everyone over till icsssssssssssssss
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] QBANBOY407:
I understand your point but ive been to the 911 center in orlando fl and once u call they will pick up and if it aint something important they will hang up! It takes seconds! Now if seconds matter then thats something else! Bye bye

Hey buddy! Anyway looks like bubby is going to be spending some time during his Christmas break from school working on this.

Holla!

Good, then I can send him my donation I promised when it was working completely.

*off topic - I got my car back out of the body shop and back to the engine shop. Turns out something went through the #6 cylinder and took out the piston, the plug was completely shut. Crazy it made 620 rwhp on 7 cylinders! :)

We should appeal to Samsung. They sent devices to cyanogenmod team to have support for our device.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drdrewdown:
that was a GSM device, which is unlike ours in many ways.

however i agree, samsung needs to understand its people like us that tell their moms, dads, brothers, sisters, co-workers, idiots they meet on the street etc about our phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] maddoggin:
we dont have cm support to begin with so this cant happen to us! lol

Won't hold me over for a decade - which is when the drama over this will be done with and people can start developing instead of bickering.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bubby323:
We will sometime within he next two weeks. In order to get nightly support you have to have everythig working which will happen soon. Im excited for break. Im going to have time to produce a bunch of fun products.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Just curious. When you say nighlty support. What do you mean. I know what nightlies are and also that they are down and will remain down until nightlies for CM9 start. Or at least that's what Chris Soyers I believe his name is said. So will merging this help for when cm9 has began its nighty builds.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neudof:
The first rule of Cyanogen is not to ask for ETA's.. :eek:

BUT it is clearly stated in the OP that this is not Cyanogen (well not yet)... THEREFORE asking for ETA's is not against the rules :D

Not everybody reads the rules...there will be some who ask, and they should just be ignored.

Anyone else experiencing really bad battery life with this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dkotoric:
yap thats why its in beta
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
Well that's why it's in alpha - a good start with lots more to come.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
I'm having pretty good battery life. About the same as I had on calk's ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
Yeah I am having really good battery life. I UV, stayed 200-1200 ondemand, and changed my scheduler to "noop" in voltage control. Getting pretty good results.

1200 - 1175mv

1000 - 1075mv

800 - 975mv

500 - 875mv

200 - 875mv

I plugged my phone in last night with 47% left. But that wasn't even with these changes. So I'm hoping for better today. :p

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
This is definitely CM. CM settings is probably the biggest difference between CM and pure AOSP, and that works 100% if I'm not mistaken. The only things not working, are things that have nothing to do with CM, aside from the 911 bug.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HondaCop:
Jerdog, is there a guideline or set of requirements listed somewhere which dictate what can be considered an alpha, beta, RC or whatever? Because it seems like it is blasphemy lately for anyone to call this ROM a beta or RC build. In my opinion, if this ROM is alpha like you pointed out, it's the most complete alpha release I've ever seen. Just wondering...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
My PRL says default again which I guess is causing call issues. I used Calk's format all and re flashed but that didn't help. The Rom is on my internal storage does that matter? Bad download? I disabled Google voice mail.

Also the sound quality seems different, like it's louder? Wifey sounds like she's yelling now. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wolfkstaag:
As near as I can tell, the battery drain is caused by Mediaserver trying to scan for pictures/music/whatever that were on your SD card. It keeps trying and trying to no avail, since you currently don't have an SD card with this CM7.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] squshy 7:
Alright bubby ive got another bug for you to squash...I've been following this thread closely and I don't think its been mentioned, if it has then I apologize profusely...

SMS cannot send multiple texts, I.e. a two page text (over 160 char)

Again, if its been mentioned I'm sorry, just trying to find bugs lol.

And I have to say, the progress you've made is outstanding ... even if it's only a kang, this is a terrific jumping off point for future CM compliance...hats off to you sir.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
There should be a setting in the sms app that addresses this issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
A very annoying bug is when on a call if you receive a text u can't pull down notification bar to clear it .... The ringtone just keeps going I had to hang up to stop it ..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] th3taman:
Mine is definitely worse than Calkulin's ROM. Got really good life on it. But I realize this is alpha...so I'll deal with it for now.

Or follow on Twitter, he posts little blurbs on there and doesn't always on here.

Don't use the format all zip before flashing. Just wipe data, cache , and davlick cache.

My PRL IS default too. Is that a known problem I missed?

That may make sense good thought/idea.

Check SMS settings. Mine wasn't checked to break them into 2 messages. I had to check it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Moose8106:
We can test that right now, in the file manager app you go to a directory and press menu, then it will give you the option to skip reading for media in that directory
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] veladem:
Next time you get a call and than a text just hit the home button than drop the bar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Confused by this one why would you say not to clean everything off the phone prior to flashing, so you are starting with a clean slate. I have been using format all zips since the OG Evo days without an issue. If there is a con to it please let me know... thx
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] firket2000:
I can't tell you why it causes problems but bubby said to not use it and most people who have used it had problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
oh ok... I can safely say that I have used it about 1,000 times give or take a hundred or so and no issues so far. But I do agree with you go with what works for you. But incase some other noobs are out there worried about it, the format all does not cause harm for everyone. Actually this is the first I ever heard of anyone saying not to use it...

That is all..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spiicytuna:
Ditto. The format-all works wonderfully for me...there is no harm it could cause unless you do not have a backup and/or a new rom to flash to. IMO it's the best way to make sure everything is cleaned out. That said if/when flashing between nightlies/releases if you want to

keep

you data DO NOT use the format all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shoulon:
People please do not talk about if its harmful or not. Else it'll bring back all the drama and arguing between "I want journaling off!" "I want a non EXT4" "Journaling decreases phone life" "calkulins format all zip causes us to do extra formatting of our flash memory"

and millions of who knows what. Formatting those parts will not harm your phone. its the same as erasing them, however formatting just cleans them up much more effectively.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dj21o:
The format all zip worked fine. Clockwork is a pain in the ass. It doesn't even clear the phone completely unless you have a script. (Like the amazing one calkulin made).

An old lady at my job locked her keys in the car. She called the police and they hung up on her. So then called 911.. and they also hung up on her. It's kind of messed up but I guess it wasn't an emergency so they found no reason to pursue it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ssconceptz:
No **** lol, that doesn't classify as a life and death situation. If you want to call 911 just clarify you are testing a mobile networking system for emergency calls and they will just hang up on you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
So is the PRL supposed to say default?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
When my PRL said "default" my phone did not work at all, and data was extremely slow. I contributed it to Google voice due to a message I was getting when trying to make calls, "we could not complete your call, please try again, in a womans voice. Anyway, I went back to stock and tried the ##786# reset and it did hands free but still didnt work. I spent about 1 1/2 hours on chat with sprint. They changed my MSID and then re-provisioned my device, and it finally worked! Next day I loaded the 11115 PRL and then CM and been fine since :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niv3d:
How do you think this happen and as far as it didn't work. Was it not making calls?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] islanda73:
Oovoo doesnt detect the front facing camera wont even let you make a video call I havent tried skype yet tho. This is the same for miui too
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] th3taman:
So I'm curious what others PRL says. My data and voice reception haven't been great on CM7 but they do work.

What "should" the PRL be saying on Cm?

---------- Post added at 09:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:09 AM ----------

So in File Manager is that sd-ext that we to exclude from media scan?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
My PRL says default as well but I had no issues with calls or texts. U would like to know what others have in their PRL as well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hermeticist:
Standard PRL for Sprint should be 60683.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] th3taman:
Yeah, was curious what others had.

Yeah, that's what I thought. Wondering if that's causing some of the poor battery life? I ran an alpha build of CM7 on my EVO 3D and don't remember the battery life being significantly worse.

Just an idea, I'm not a dev and don't build ROMs but a thought for the smarter people. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
What I think caused my trouble was flashing using ODIN for that new EL modem then upon rebooting I instally installed CM and tried to enable Google voice. The Odin of modem and flashing CM in the same session caused my provisioning to be lost. At least that my best guess :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wolfkstaag:
Damn, wish I'd kept reading after I posted. I already restored back to Blazer for the time being.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
I have a weird problem that I'm not sure if it's CM related, or something else. But for my keyboards (swype and swiftkeyX) The enter key has permanently turned into the smiley key. Has anyone else experienced this? Sorry if it has already been posted, I haven't seen it anywhere.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] firket2000:
My SwiftKey is fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niv3d:
Can this really cause phone connection issues?? I'm currently speaking with sprint and re provisioning my phone...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
sure it can; this is not a finished product, so when you flash it, you assume any thing can happen to your phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
Can you even re-provision your phone when on CM7?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niv3d:
Well I guess a lot of people would be re provisioning...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
good thing Sprint doesn't charge you for this.......yet!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I would go to a nandroid of your stock based rom. Chances are they will have you use dialer codes that are not supported by CM. They had to change my MSID and that is not something I could have done while on CM, or easily done anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] niv3d:
I know it. I wasn't on CM at the time BUT apparently this issue is with yet ANOTHER TOWER DOWN! The same tower has been having issues since 11/25! I'm about to go crazy!!! Can't make calls, send or receive text, and data is sooo slow it's not even funny!
