Hey guys! CM9 freaken rocks hands down and I'd like to thank the whole cm9 dev team for bringing us this amazing ROM !!! aaanyway, I figured I'd share my remedy for the keyboard back light always being on.. most of us love that fact we haz keyboardz right? But no matter how bright your surroundings are, the back light is persistently on.... eating battery.

So, my solution was to put a brightness toggle in the notification bar. Set it for auto and dim presets. Then go into your settings/ display/ automatic brightness (tweak levels and filtering ).. head to edit levels. And on the far right. Put 0 for all levels. You can also adjust how bright youed like your screen to be for a given environment brightness .. the point is you can see your keyboard fine in the light so there's no need for a backlight to be on. Remember to check "use custom" and "allow light decease". Screen dim should be left at 16... now your set. When its too dark to see, hit your toggle for "dim" and now its dim with the keyboard backlight. Hit "auto" and no pestering backlight sapping your battery ! Hope this helped.. idk. Let me know what you think !

When I try to open the settings screen in CM9/Gallery I get a blank screen. Is this normal?

Over the weekend I flashed back to a TW rom and calibrated my phone to fix my rotation. That worked but when I got back to CM9 and went into gallery all the pictures taken since installing CM9 alpha 1 show a date in gallery of 12/30/1970 7:00 pm. If I go into esfile explorer their modified date is the correct creation date. New pictures are dated normal although the ones taken the last two weeks were fine before the weekend. Anybody have any idea what happened?

i wish i could use these new ROMS but me beeing on boost mobile my 3g wont work and mms wont work. only if i use the older ROMS my 3g and mms works.. they should make these new ROMS compatible to all CDMA carriers. i dont see why sprint should be the only one working using this CM7 or CM9 or MIUI since 3g wont work for us beeing on boost. even though sprint and boost are pretty much the same thinkg there are some crap going one on these new ROMS. oh well.
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
No. It's not the CM team's responsibility to troubleshoot compatibility with carriers that this phone was never intended to work on. With any ROM, it's your responsibility to get it working, unless someone is nice enough to help. It will NEVER be the ROM author that does it.

The CM team has enough on their plates without having to try to troubleshoot this completely blind and with zero data of any kind. ;)
[Epic 4G General] MeetFace:
Bro, hate to say it, but you get what you pay for.

Boost isn't exactly main-stream, and let's be honest, Sprint is the smallest of the major players out there. So you are complaining a about a subsidiary of one of the smaller cell phone companies not having good ROM support on a phone they don't even support?

Try booting a stock rom and going to settings>about phone> update prl, and your profile. 3g should work aftrwords.

Next use voice dialer and say "open apn" CLEARLY and open it up and change mms address to mm.myboostmobile(DOT)com send an mms to yourself and you should get mms and data working now

after testing 3gturbocharger and the build.prop mods from links i posted earlier ,on cm9 a3, i didnt see any difference in performance between the two. so i decided to look at turbo scripts and it is appling the exact same mods from link, zeppelinrox even credits motcher41 in the script. so either way works. you can apply to build.prop manually like i did or run the script from zeppelinrox which does offer more preset options.

well thats the issue about these new CM7 CM9 and MIUI they dont have the udate PRL and profile like on the stock roms. wich i think just like you that is the problem about 3g not working. well at least i flashed MIUI the latest version and i looked all over the menus and i couldnt find the about phone and update PRL and profile options.. and i flashed CM9 i think and it was te same thing i couldnt find that feature neather. and i know that about the APN voice comman. iam able to get 3g and mms to work when using stock or any older custom ROM. but the 3g problame and mms is when ever i flash CM7 CM9 or MIUI

Bluetooth audio getting stuck with Prius car audio system.

I just upgraded to CM9 Alpha2 this weekend and am quite impressed with it overall. The one main issue I've noticed is that the bluetooth audio would practically stop but still stutter a bit over my Prius car audio system. It actually worked for a short time but after unpausing the audio I encountered this. Since then the bluetooth audio has been working fine with my Plantronics stereo headphones.
[Epic 4G General] tbob18:
Get rid of that phantom voicemail notification for good.

Set this script to run on boot with Script Manager or Rom Toolbox with root permissions:

sleep 15
mount -o remount,rw /system
mv /system/app/Phone.apk /system/app/Phone.apk.bak
mv /system/app/Phone.apk.bak /system/app/Phone.apk
mount -o remount,ro /system

It will take 30-40 seconds or so after boot before the notification is removed.

If you find the icon coming back shortly after boot, you may have to adjust the sleep command (this delays the script in seconds. I have my phone at 5, 15 should be safe unless you have a ton of stuff opening at boot).

Edit: Using this in conjunction with the script will hide the icon for the ~40 seconds before the script runs. :)

Edit2: It seems like if you lose signal the notification will come back after you regain signal. I added a Script Manager widget to my homescreen with a secondary script without the Sleep command and run it whenever the notifcation comes back.

also for the build.prop tweak do I just open it and copy/paste and that's it?

[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
To run it find it in script manager tap it and when the dialog box comes on make sure you run it as root or that the su icon is green. Hit run and it will go its command prompt looking deal :D and choose an option I usually use 5 but they can vary between phones so play with them run a speed test prior and reboot and re run the test to see which one improves the best.

As for the build.prop editing you'll see the heap size just change it to 92m and you'll have to add the other two on top of it.

Right now I am on SleeperROM but an anxious to try CM9. I do see that there are bugs and once several of them are fixed I would definitely run it.

[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
Yeah CM or MIUI are not able to update profile or prl. The workaround for cm at least is boot from a stock EL30 rom and update from it then reflash a cm or miui ROM.

Also let's go back and make sure you have the apn ACTIVE. If it isn't active there's not even a reason to put the info in. Lol.. go to voice dialer and say open apn>menu key>new apn>

Username password blah blah can be blank. But make sure authentication type is POP and CHAP. MCC should be 310 and MNC should be 120. Give the phone a few minutes to adjust the new settings or hit airplane mode off then back on.

You could also try downloading "go SMS" from the market. In the settings you can force apn and sizes for the mms sending via the app. Tell me what happens keep me posted! The Epic isn't Epic without data connection

To be honest Ithink this is the best ROM out right now(correct me if I am wrong).. but this is one hell of a daily driver. Sure alpha 0 was sluggish and camera froze a little bit. Video sometimes has streaks in it on playback but its nothing crazy. Although recording isn't fixed all the way yet(if you record something that's too fast it will pjt artifacts on screen). That's about all that's wrong with it that bothers me. If you want something stable just go get clean gb or somethin like el30 stock. Although this ROM is leaving those in the dust. Its fast and battery drop is like 20 min/% overclocked to 1.3 ghz, compared to cm7 where I got 15 min/% on a good day. Just nandroid in cwm.before you flash cm9 and you can revert back anytime you'd like.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
With the dialer up hit the menu key and look for it in options. It is there somewhere.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
It is an Alpha with constant updates and it is brand new for the Epic and meant to run on phones with twice the RAM...with that said I use it for days at a time without any issues. The ultimate choice is yours. Make your Sleeper nandroid and go for it. You don't like, restore nandroid...simple as that.
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
I would say yes, as long as video recording is not near the top of what you do with your phone.

The best tip I can offer, is to make sure you start from a 100% clean build, and only restore data you absolutely have to (games data for your progress for example)

No worries man. I appreciate you helping me. I checked throughout the call settings and phone settings and no luck. That feature might have just been dropped on alpha 2/3.
