when I open the keyboard, then close it back.. the screen don't rotate back.. unless I cut the screen off and turn it back on..

I'm pretty sure that it automatically rotated on the earlier versions..

I have checked auto rotate in...

settings -> Launcher -> General

Setting -> Display

Setting -> Accessibility

is there something that I'm missing.. or is anyone else getting this as well???

Tested a different setting and wow getting better battery life overnight, looks now as its completely going into sleep mode , yesterday morning had good batt life when I woke up but some process was using cpu 800mhz for bout an hr and now seem nothing did over night. I took SS few min apart. Edit: this is with wifi on all night.
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
Congratulations, would you like to share your setting with the rest of the class?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tazfanatic:
do you have enough or would like some more?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
MOAR. Can never have enough data.
[Epic 4G Android Development] wamu93:
Heh, forgot to include the most important detail :p . Yesterday In settings>performance>>processor I had set it to "powersave" which oddly enough was not power saving as much as the options I have now "interactiveX". Under powersave something was utilizing the processor@800mhz for bout lil over an hour , while nothing used the processor last night. Hopes this helps others out there. So far no issues with this alpha build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fromchaos0646:
do you have the option to destroy all processes when leaving an app checked? if so, uncheck it. thats what solved it for me.

Battery Charging when not plugged in?

I just noticed this. The lock screen and the battery status icon says my phone is charging but my phone is not plugged in.

I completely wiped the phone and installed CM9 Alpha 3. No mods, standard kernel.

A reboot took care of it but I'm wondering if the battery state reporting is not picked up correctly by the ROM under certain circumstances.
[Epic 4G Android Development] offtohavasu:
My apologies if I missed it, is anyone else having auto flash issues with the camera? Works fine if I set to manual, but if it's in auto mode it does not go off.

Thanks and again, great job everyone!

text notice's

I am not getting my ring tone on text messages. yes i have it set both settings and go sms.

Never mind it is listed as a bug. Strange though A2 was fine but broke on A3 for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blad3:
So I've been trying my best to research what this is via other Xda threads, but nothing or anyone seems to adequately describe what this process is doing or called. I have had an system app pop up called "MediaServer" and is draining my battery. 3 hours and im at 70% with just music playing. I was good before with A2 and A3 but all of a sudden this process has popped up now and I can't seem to find out what the deal is with it. I can't kill it and I don't know what system app it is referring to. Anyone have some clues?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
Mediaserver is what is running the media(music)... but if you attempted to play any corrupt files you might get stuck in a mediaserver loop.

Google it. Also, you can kill any service via dev tools.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blad3:
Well my question is, I never saw it there before so why is it showing up now?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tazfanatic:

gapps-ics-20120207

Up time of 17:10 hours. That includes over night charging if that is a issue I will get another one tonight for you.

Clean install restored apps only no data or system from mybackuppro and restored app data for only 3 apps my color note, ICE and Walgreens where the only apps I restored data from.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blad3:
I am assuming with TB?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tazfanatic:
You can freeze media server without any issues from what i have seen.

EDIT:

I just realized after a fresh install I haven't gone into freeze my normal's and I do not see mediaserver anymore. Now I am questioning when it was last there. I might be thinking of CM7 and not CM9 it is all a blur right now. Not feeling to well so things are even more foggier than normal for me :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] tommi_han:
Same for me too...
[Epic 4G Android Development] tazfanatic:
yes freeze in TB or My Backup Pro.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Except causing audio problems, video problems, and a host of other things.

Of course you saw MediaServer active when you were playing music. It was playing music.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Yup, I noticed the same thing the other night. I had the flash set to auto, and it most certainly needed it (11 month old sleeping funny, legs kicked up on the bumper, funny stuff) but no flash when it took the picture. Changed it to 'on' and it worked just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tazfanatic:
see my update.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RealTic:
I am so happy zeam launcher works with the Alpha.... zeam works very well with Alpha 3, very very fast.

Wifi Discovery

Hey all,

I didn't see anything related to wifi in the issue tracker. My Epic's not discovering my work's Wifi which is using WPA (dont think this should make a diff). When im at home I am able discover my routers wireless network but it's not using WPA. Is it working for everyone else? Maybe it's just my works router? I am using alpha3 but this also was the same in alpha2.
[Epic 4G Android Development] haas599:
The only issue I have is no audio out through USB. I'm getting by with other kernels but by doing so, I exclude myself from any debugging. Keep up the good work guys!
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Are you typing the command in terminal emulator on your phone? If so, you need to drop the adb from the command - no need for the Android Debug Bridge when you're already on the right side of that ravine ;)

The only difficulty I had with that was selecting just the text I wanted to copy, so I had to copy all and delete the unneeded parts (which took too much time, I had to put it down for the moment due to homework... going to try again in a moment...)

EDIT: It's much easier when the only text in terminal is the command and report - I used "copy all" and didn't have to edit the copied text, just pasted into pastebin :)

Uptime 11.5 hours

Fresh install of alpha 3 with the associated gapps (incl. Picasa updated Gallery). A few apps auto-restored on first boot, and I installed Tiny Flashlight. Everything else is untouched, including settings.

http://pastebin.com/p3iAkJmA
[Epic 4G Android Development] pvtjoker42:
I currently have my phone connected to a WPA2 network here at work without any problems. It's worked since alpha 1 fine for me. Home wireless is also WPA2 and works flawlessly as well.

Sounds like possible settings or other conflicts..
[Epic 4G Android Development] digiblur:
And unless you are running a public wifi, you shouldn't ever run a wireless network with anything less than WPA2. Never ever use WEP.

Japanese Characters/Random Characters

Has anyone had any trouble with the text messages displaying random Japanese characters, or just random characters on the receiver's end. Lots of my contacts are texting me back saying that I texted them japanese characters, or random characters. If there is a fix for this, Please let me know?...I'm really enjoying Alpha 3!!! :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Make sure split SMS is enabled, especially if you're using a third-party messaging app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Blad3:
Exactly what I'm saying. I understand what Mediaserver is supposed to do, but it was NEVER there before and I check my battery stats like a fiend ever since I switched to CM9. All of a sudden its shown up and blowing up my battery.

CM9 review

frist off tnks 2 the CM team for this, also is there a fix or is there an update 4 the update profile on cm9 i like to update my PRL every so offthen i ask bcause my hotspot hack turns off after a sec. of turning it on it doesnt stay on weather on 4G or 3G "HELP" someone Please! P.S im on CM9 A2
[Epic 4G Android Development] ashbuly:
Not having that that problem on A3. Ran my hotspot for about 1/2 an hour last night with 2 laptops on it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jdelano:
You can use this temp stock EL30 boot to try updating your PRL:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1464791

I've tried it it works really well, albeit slow because it is running from the sd card, which is way slower than the internal storage.

i use WiFi tether; I've never been able to use the hotspot for whatever reason. WiFi always works for me.

you can download it from here:

http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/downloads/list

copy it over to your SD card and install it using file manager like astro or es file manager.

I have been using beta 7 without issues

[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
I dont even see any Wifi settings. It's just on or off. I cant' force it to scan for networks like on the stock rom. Is there w Wifi settings file on our filesystem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Yeah, press just to the left of the toggle that turns it on and off when you're in settings. From there, you can scan networks, or you can hit menu, then settings or whatever to get into the actual settings for WiFi.

Android os is killing my battery.. 11hrs up dead battery, Android is 40%, voice calls 20 min, and screen time 1.5 hrs didn't have this issue on alpha 1 or 2.
[Epic 4G Android Development] digiblur:
Update profile only does something when you first activate the phone. After that it does nothing since your data is already active. Flash PRL 11115 and call it a day. I enjoy the CM builds blocking any PRL updates as Sprint keeps downgrading people to the 606xx series.

Music working TOO well

I searched and didn't find anything but is anyone else having trouble with any MP3's on the sdcard starting to play each time you finish a call?

Mine does and it seems random which song will start.. but it keeps doing it with the same song for all calls until it is rebooted then seems to choose a different random song.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
I tried it with both checked and unchecked. Its driving me nuts!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] davidh59:
I've been using this as a daily since alpha 0 with very few and relatively minor problems. Alpha 3 has help the battery and voice calls are clearer. But today I had a host of issues. It started when I left wifi and had to reboot in order to get signal. Then when I tried to use Google Nav it said the "Text to speech Engine has Stopped". Rebooting did not fix this. Nav still worked but with no sound. Any ideas how to fix this? Still loving Cm9, just some speed bumps, Thanks Devs

Can you flash with qpst using the boot from sd card or do you need to flash another ROM?

[Epic 4G Android Development] fromchaos0646:
i would say to try a fresh install and make sure that that option is unchecked.
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
Holy ****, didn't know that would bring that up. Look at that the secured network is right there. I guess since it's secured it just doesn't do the automatic little popup with all the available networks in the notification drawer. Thanks epic community and ty epic cm team ::cool::

Nope, no reboots or random shutdowns at all. Sounds like a bad flash. Re-download Alpha 3 and gapps, reflash (I would wipe to factory prior to flashing)

for text to speech issue go into settings/language&input/text-to-speech output and change to pico tts or if you dont like the voice on pico install a 3rd party engine from market and set it to that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
You might be able to get it to work if you edit your build.prop. But then it will kill any apps looking for ICS like Chrome.

I believe a grey color means you are not connected to google services, but still have data. Whereas blue means data and connected to google services.

I do. I really don't understand everyone's problems. This is alpha and for me everything works except faces in video recording. The android os bug just popped up in alpha 3 but its only visual. When I had my nexus s 4g it had the same bug. No battery drain. Just stop worrying about it lol. I am super happy. 0 issues. I use it heavily daily.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RealTic:
The only reason I asked this is because I have been using alpha 3 for two days now with zero problems, I have been trying to come in contact with problems people are listing on this thread, but they are usually issues that have nothing to do with my type of daily use.
