Auto-Flash does work. Well on Alpha 3 at least. Im downloading A4 right now and once I have it up and running ill update the post to say if it works on A4. In order to get it to work you first have to turn flash ON, then set flash back to auto. Hope this works for others :)

Well I could honestly care less about LTD right now. I would just buy one with a bad esn and flash to virgin. But the prices are just to high right now. If i do get one I will probably wait until they are down around $150-200 with a bad esn. It will help once sprint launches as their will be more of the phones on the market. But until the epic is a great phone!!

The auto flash did not work for me at first, however, once I turned it to "on" then back to "auto" it started working. At least for me.

Anyone know if there are any options in this rom for camera resolutions or "scenes", like action or portrait etc like on the TW roms?

Question. If I were to flash a theme and then make a backup, I wouldn't be able to restore it properly correct? I could be wrong, I just don't remember what the whole issue with the themes and the backups was?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jackalo:
I've only been running alpha 4 for a few hours, but I have noticed quite a bit of difference in battery performance already! My phone has been in deep sleep for 85% of the time instead of 10%, even with being connected to Facebook Messenger. This ROM is so awesome!

There is an auto flash issue. It's been acknowledged in the bug tracker.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Basically. When you restore a backup with a theme it will go into a boot loop. Instead reflash the ROM and do an advanced data restore and it will work fine. Then reflash the theme if desired.

That's how I had it. I had to move them to the other folders before they would be recognized after flashing A4. Never had that issue till A4, though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
There is a bug in the tracker about custom ringtones disappearing. I've had this issue in all alphas if I can recall back that far.

So much awesome I've relegated to not using custom ringers for the time being, unless we could move them to a system folder, that would be boss.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nastypup:
Same here. I never had to play hide and seek with the music and ringtones before ;-). Perhaps it had something to do with the audio repair that fixed the ring of death. Maybe some pointers didn't initially respond until the first song and ringtone were copied to those folders. It may have relayed a signal to search for the other files. Or else it was nothing like that and I'm just rambling <LOL>.

But that's just it, if you modify anything we're not talking apples and apples any more. You have no idea what does and doesn't have cross effects, and you're assuming he modded it correctly.

Legally they arnt allowed to release a cyanogenmod build with those apps cooked in. That's what gapps is for. Why not just make an update zip that u flash every time you update the rom. That's what I do with a few apps I always use.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Zeinzu:
First: whoever suggested friendcaster thank you. Much better than the standard fb app (replaced twitter with tweetcaster also). I like how if I disable notifications it doesn't insist on consuming my ram anyway like the standard fb app. Sync worked perfectly (doesn't show up in my main contacts but I use apw for it anyway and it shows up there so I can deal).

Anyway, this hardly feels like an alpha. Everything works really well for a first release. Hardly get any lag (maybe a tiny bit while loading the widgets tab in the drawer, but that seems to make sense since it's loading a lot of info, I mean I have like 100 apps and many have widgets). Scrolling seems plenty smooth I'm not getting the laggy scrolling most speak of. TB restored app my apps and data just fine. Love the stock home app, finally actually uninstalled ADW EX. The on screen keyboard bug isn't so bad. I'm using the new beta swype themes stock ICS, and it only shows up with the physical keyboard if it's "already opened" before I slide it out so I can easily back out of it before or after I slide out the physical keyboard. Unmapped keys like smiley do bring up the soft keyboard from the physical keyboard and touching the screen brings it back up as well, totally not a a big deal and I'm sure it's all "on the list". All video playback has tearing, not complaining, sure you already know, hardly a big deal at this stage, just posting my feedback. Haven't tried to video cam or camera yet but will soon.

Other than that everything seems quite outstanding. Even some bugs listed aren't present for me (unless they were fixed before this released and the bugs page wasn't updated) like example: multi touch, if touching with two fingers and released reads both inputs as released. For me it still reads my other finger as an input just fine.

Ok, sorry to be so long winded. Overall just wanted to share my experience and say thank you. Very much looking forward to what's coming. Seems as though aside from some features being re-added far up the pipeline, and some minor tweaks and bug fixes, this is damn near a finely polished ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JojoSteez:
Thanks for this. Friendcaster synced my contacts and is a way better app than Facebook for Android. Keeping it for sure. Let me find you post again, so I can thank you.

---------- Post added at 04:06 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:01 PM ----------

I figured out what was causing the FC. I did a fresh install of Tasker and then restored the tasks. Then I disabled them all and no FCs. One by one I enabled them and I found that the offending task was the one that turned on Wifi when I got home. That used network location. As we do not have working network location yet, it wasn't working and causing the FC. All my other tasks work fine. I will just have to manually turn on Wifi when I get home for now until we get an update.

I do wish I could figure out why my LauncherPro Plus calendar widget is causing LPP to FC. Using Agenda Widget for now. And I know I should be using trebuchet, but I have a very customized setup on LPP and I need my widgets, lol. When the rest of the settings get merged on trebuchet I may switch back and use Android Pro Widgets again, as they are LPP widget knockoffs.

Thanks again devs, no other problems noted so far.

Oh and offtopic, if anyone was curious as to my LPP setup and why I want to keep it, I put a lot of work in it. Here's a screenshot of all screens. Was taken a while ago, but it's mostly still the same. Some minor tweaks since then. Big Pic Warning.
