If you run multiple accounts in k9 like I do, go into account settings for each one. You can set it to show pics after clicking (default, yuck), only from contacts, or all, among many other settings you will want to personalize.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yes, I have 4 accounts I check. Thanks. Will try it tonight.

And Deca honoring my thread....thank you sir for all that you have done!

I hope we can keep this thread going so everyone can get CM7 setup the way they like.
[Epic 4G General] DrKaotica:
I really like the idea of a thread like this as I don't want to be flamed for filling the cm7 thread with n00b Qs.. the epic has been my only smartphone.. so cm7 and non-touchwiz is still new to me..

Off topic...

Anybody happen to have the "playa" ringtone without the girls' moan in it? Really like it but could do without the moan ;)
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
There's a version of that WITH a moan?! I think it's on CM7 nightlies, had no clue the original had moaning. I want it! Lol and I'll find mine without the moan.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
Doesn't work for me. I can send stuff all day to myself with the app and I get the 9016 texts but the voicemail app doesn't show the message. If I hit check for update I get a general failure. So I guess it isn't communicating.
[Epic 4G General] T-980:
I cannot get 3G to work no matter what I do. I've toggled airplane mode, wifi (works fine on wifi), but I can't get anything to work. The 3g icon shows up but does not allow any data as if my account has been suspended (which it is not, I'm on boost). Am I doing something wrong? I'll give more info if needed. I really want to use this but no data is kind of a deal breaker for me :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Ill upload mine with the moan if you can get me the one without it ;)
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
I think someone else had the same problem they too had flashed to boost so that may be the problem I'm not sure if he's fixed it or not but it could possibly be because your on boost and it calls for sprint?....
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
I'm on Virgin Mobile, and I can tell you that if you updated your modem to EL30, it borked your programming a little, you'll have to reprogram with EL30 GB SD that warren made, and then confirm 3g is functional, THEN go to CM7 RC0, and nightlies work too. Make sure 3G data Is enabled and your boost phone is off, otherwise you may miss a few sms's.
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
Lmao, I just checked, mine has the moan too now. -_- I believe RC0 didn't have it and Nightly 22 and below didn't have it either I think.
[Epic 4G General] terinfire:
Out of curiosity, does this also fix the problems with Cricket? I can run CleanGB on MTD without any issues, but when I use CM7, 3G data doesn't work. I've never had data working with CM7.
[Epic 4G General] T-980:
So...I hate to ask but how would I go about doing such a thing? I flashed my phone over to boost myself but outside of that I'm not sure what to do. haha
[Epic 4G General] T-980:
This is what I found

I recommend downloading Set DNS off the market. Very straight forward and easy to use.
[Epic 4G General] Giftedx29:
make sure your phone and account isnt setup for google voicemail, also once you start the app for the first time it goes through an activation process with a little popup window while in the app if it didn't show up might be best to clear app data and uninstall, reboot then reinstall the app
[Epic 4G General] terinfire:
Hate to double-post, but this is very useful. I've found out how to get it working.

http://www.cricketusers.com/sprint-samsung-epic-4g/21302-cyanogen-mod-7-2-0-rc0.html

Basically, you miss the files necessary to handle the actual authentication, I believe. I needed to use the GreenK45 application to handle it, thereafter.

Works like a charm. I'll be incorporating this into my guide soon enough.

bluetooth issue

running cm7 02032012nightly. love cm7 but have bluetooth issue. I been looking at the form and have not found a fix for my bluetooth issue. I listen to a podcast once the screen times out to save the battery the bluetooth will cut off as well. If I listen with headphone thru the headphone port it works fine with the screen off. Also if I listen with the speaker on I hear it fine too. I appears to be a bluetooth issue.

thanks,
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Congrats on your first post Dyuane. I have seen this behavior back in Bonsai days. Have you tried other programs to see if it also does it like Pandora? Does it do it if you are on a charger? There was something that caused the bluetooth driver to shut off when the phone went to sleep and plugging it into a charger would keep it awake at 100Mhz. If Pandora works ok, try another program to listen to your podcast.

For some reason I keep coming back to this romlol it really is amazing

[Epic 4G General] Verbal Defecation:
Is anyone having problems with key skipping when using the physical keyboard? It doesn't happen often but it seems to happen especially much after an apostrophe. I've tried changing the key timing in sys/devices/platform/s3c-keypad/timer_delay but haven't had much luck :/

Edit: I just figured out that it wasn't my keytiming that was screwy but actually my keyboard program that was causing the delay after apostrophes. Swiftkey X... I guess I'll go back to default android keyboard for now
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I know right! It would be nice to have it translated into non-geek.
[Epic 4G General] K3VlN:
it is a little tough to read but it looks to me like nothing really big had been added or changed lots of language translation fixes and there was a bug in the camera/gallery that was in nightly 34 that has been fixed other than that doesnt seem like there was anything major added unless i missed something
[Epic 4G General] RyleyinSTL:
Merged GB items will find themselves in the nightly.

Help with google sync

I just flashed cm7 for the first time and I am having issues. I cannot sync my google account. It always comes up as "unable to open connection to server" I suspect this issue is tied to me not having the android market either. Also when I try to flash clockwork mod it comes up about the epic not having and offical CM recovery yet and if I installed have installed a CM manually, which I have. I select yes and it asks which version. I suspect it is the latest, I used the youtube video at the beginning of the thread. Does this sound right? I read something about maybe needing to flash the android market onto my phone but have not seen that specifically about the Epic. Any help is greatly appreciated!
[Epic 4G General] adamdelozier:
Sounds like you just need to flash the gapps for cm7
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
You don't want to flash CWM. CM7 and MTD ROMs have a special MTD CWM 5.0.2.7. If you are adding ROM Manager then choose menu>manual flash override then ok then Epic-MTD then clockwork 3.x.x.x. and as Adam said flash the gapps at the same time.
[Epic 4G General] csonkanator:
Sweet, this noob wont get flamed! So my question is this: I just updated to CM7.2 from CM7.1, and on 7.1 i had the option to long press my back button and it would kill the app i was on. I found this feature excellent for keeping my battery safe from running apps. My problem is i cannot find this option on CM7.2. Has anyone dealt with this issue. I searched but cannot find anything. Thanks for the help!
[Epic 4G General] adamdelozier:
Should be in settings>applications>development. I am running 7.2 today and have it checked.
[Epic 4G General] lilajrestnom:

Thanks for the link to the themes. I went with Legend-X for now. Apparently I can just edit those pngs and make it my own theme. A project for the weekend maybe.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:

Let me know if you find it. It probably is another keyboard that needs to be installed.

Also no CM7 themers out there that can tell me why themes aren't modding the 4G stat png? They must have hid it somewhere else or it is renamed.
[Epic 4G General] tazfanatic:
Think I saw them say it was TW mapping so it wouldn't be "fixed" it also effects the imocon's button.

If someone finds a "fix" for this please let us know.
[Epic 4G General] ashamir:
Since this is a noob thread, would anyone be willing to guide me through an installation of CM7 MTD? Perhaps over IRC? I have used odin/cwm but never installed an MTD rom. Thanks!
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
It is pretty much like installing any other ROM but all data will be wiped so you will need to use Titanium Backup or Mybackup for your data. The installation process repartitions and reformats your phone, then it installs the ROM. Two tips are make sure you are on CWM 5.027 (with 3 finger salute) and do a factory data reset in CWM before going to Install from sd card. Make sure you are on EI22 modem before converting.
[Epic 4G General] ashamir:
I have current titanium backups on my sdcard. Does this process wipe SD?

I am on CWM 5.0.2.7 - are you saying I just flash the MTD ROM file like any other ROM?
[Epic 4G General] diego1985:
Qbking77 has vids to help you on youtube. That's what I used just type is name in youtube.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
No process, flashing or Odin wipes sd card. Yes after all the wipes including Factory data. Don't forget to grab and flash the Google apps as well. Then download Titanium from the market and restore 3rd party apps and only data you absolutely must have. Do not restore system apps or data.
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
Is there a way I can flash the modem_ec05_to_ei22.zip while on cm7? I keep getting a status 7 error. Is it a simple modificaton in the zip or do I need to edit my build.prop?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I have not seen a fix for this yet. The easy thing to do is to do a nandroid, Odin to EC05Plus with PIT and repartition, flash the zip, Do wipes, flash CM7, restore nandroid.
[Epic 4G General] Flint420:
If you installed the theme using theme chooser there is a chance there is no 4g icon in the theme depending on. Someone correct me if I'm wrong but it looks like theme chooser does not replace framework files but just swaps out images similar to metamorph. I'm using one of the ics themes and the 4g icon is there. Have you seen the ultimate online theme kitchen? Nice easy way to start a theme, lots of options and once done you can swap any images you want to change.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
The theme I chose has WiMax pngs. Both the status bar and dropdown are supposed to be blue and they are staying green. I viewed all the pngs. I think they may be named different then the ones in the theme. I will check the names in systemui and framework. I assume those both are morphed.
[Epic 4G General] sneezy316:
While we're here sharing, for anyone else that cares about the capacitive keys staying lit in night clock modes, this is what I found. It is partially fixed before nightly-14.

As long as they are not lit when you switch over to night clock, they will be off.

But if they are on when you switch, they will not turn off.

This is as of Nightly-14, and plugged in on stock kernel.
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
A couple weeks back I placed an even strip of electric tape over my capacitive buttons. Best decision I ever made
[Epic 4G General] jspsuperman:
quick ? Does anyone elses volume during a call stay really loud, even when u try to turn it down it will mute th caller and u have to toggle speaker on and off to get it back? Its by know means a deal breaker just a minor annoyance lol Im on nightly 14 and its done this w every nightly so far. Also using th stock kernel or samarai makes no dif in this issue, just curious if anyone else is experiencing this or mayb fixd it
[Epic 4G General] Flint420:
That's a nice theme. Just installed it. Everything looks blue for me. The 4g toggle button does not theme though. I'm going to see if I can figure it out. Not sure exactly what your refering to by "status bar and dropdown" but this may help. Have you seen the notification power widget settings under cyanogen settings>interface. It gives the option to change the indicator color under the toggles. There are also options to change the status bar similar to the 10 lockscreen mod.
[Epic 4G General] adamdelozier:
Using your favorite file manager

Go to system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl

Look for lines 114 and 115 and add WAKE_DROPPED to each. Save and exit. Volume controls will now work properly.

Make sure to mount R/W first.

I have done this on every nightly since 6 and it works every time. I was trying to create a flashable zip for it, but I just dont have the time. This corrects the volume control for speaker phone as well.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
By stat I meant the icon that shows up in the status/notification bar and dropdown means the toggle in pulldown menu. I will look at those options you mentioned, maybe that will change it to blue instead of green. Thanks.

I rooted my Epic and installed CM7 using QBKING77's awesome videos. One question I have is when I rooted the phone last week I installed ACS recovery. After I installed CM7 I see I am running CWM 5.0.2.7 recovery. Was this part of the install package or did I somehow switch when I was playing with ROM manager?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
You are now on a different partition table and file system called MTD and Yaffs2. It automatically installs the only compatible recovery which is a modified CWM5. In ROM Manager you have to hit the menu key, Manual flash option, choose Epic-MTD and the clockwork 3.xxx.

I use duct tape lol

But only at nighti remove it as soon as I wake up

But once I got up and went to school in a rush and forget it was on and after I was at school in class I took out my phone and it had it on it and a few ppl seen it and thought that I taped my phone with duct tape cuz the screen was crcked lol

But anyway

I flashed cm7... yesterday I think?? Or noo it was Wednesday lol

I mostly did it for the wiiremote app to work which it does

And its an amazing rom everything seems to be working great( except for minor things like haptic feedback) but one thing I would do anything to have is the tw task manager lol

I'm thinking about flashing to a tw rom but I don't wanna leave cm7 lol

But anyway I think this is a great rom I can't wait until all the tiny things get perfected

Oh and incase anyone is having any issues with the led notification light thingy I found this app called "light flow" there's a free and a donate version

Its a pretty cool app it basically let's u control the led light for everything you want and in any color you want (red, blue, and magnita are the only colors on the epic tho)

I used it and have 3 things on

Txts = blue

Charging = red

Fully charged = blue

Its kinda complicated so if anyone uses it and needs any help ill b here to assist anyone

I still use my Samsung dock for charging/clock, and the only app that seems to switch the phone to landscape seems to be the Samsung Dock app. However, the capacitative buttons light up as soon as the phone is plugged in the dock. Epic TW roms seem to have solved this issue but then the Samsung dock was designed to work with TW.

New theme

OK, I figured out the 4G icon thing and created/modded a theme. There is no 4G icon in Framework-res to mod so theme changer doesn't affect that. I had to make a flashable systemui.apk. Anyway here is a link to the theme:

Is anyone besides Biggoron and me having trouble with sending lare texts? If the app has to split it, it sends gibberish. I HAVE checked split messages and it did not change anything. A Google search found a few people on the Nexus and CM7 having the same problem. One person said handcent did not fix it either.
