When I flashed a2 with the new gapps, coming from a full wipe (x3), upon boot the rom did not automatically restore my apps from the market like a1 did. Not that I can't use the apps in the OP to restore backups...just didn't have to in a1. Just wondering from anyone who flash a3 if once signed into your google account, did it restore your apps? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] shane6374:
Gonna end this now. It's not a poorly built theme, but it hasn't been updated for Alpha 3 yet because I'm not completely sure what needs to be updated yet. Every other device that has CM9 alpha builds also has theme's for it. Let's stop the talk about my theme here in this thread and take it to my thread.

If your just looking to change the battery icon look for the thread I started dealing with circle battery mod - I have seen no ill effects and the restores from it work properly.

Yes, 6 (thnx k0nane!)

.........alpha-3: didn't flash gapps.....how awesome is that?!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] xtrezpasor:
How can you reflash the stock kernel if you flash a 3rd party kernel? Just reflash the rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
Yes.

Same here. I almost got lost last night because I was in a 3G area and the GPS stopped working. As soon as I got back to the 4G area, the GPS resumed. But I was almost home by then. That 3G should come on as soon as wifi or 4G cuts out.

Cyanogen Mod 9.2, stock kernel, EI22. I like my Ice Cream Sandwich!

To flash alpha 3 on to alpha 2 do I need to wipe all?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Vizzo:
No just cache and dalvik. However I like to format system and boot as well before I flash. That's just me I guess. Never end up with any random bugs that aren't on the official bugslist though.

on alpha3 and 100mhz is still being skipped over and still wont stick.

100mhz sticks for me everytime.... Haven't touch any of those settings so it's set as default 200mhz but it dips and sticks at 100 mhz.

Google backup working?

Hey folks, could someone test this and report back the results?

Starting at alpha2 with old gapps (with broken Picasa sync).

Upgrade to alpha3 and new gapps.

Make sure it is set to backup your phone to your Google account.

Create a full backup in CWM, then wipe /data.

Boot alpha3, add your Google account.

After a few minutes, does it automatically reinstall all your Market apps? It seems this feature was broken on the previous gapps as recommended for alpha2, but I don't know if it is fixed in this newer gapps with alpha3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:

[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
It does not stick at 100 for me, either in settings or VoltageControl

thanks for the replies. alright so heres whats going on; under the settings and performance tab, it stays stuck on 200 but under control freak it says im running 100 fine and cpu states im running 100 perfectly fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
I am still trying to get a bead on the battery drain for CM9. I have attached screen shots over my overnight usage. This is completely stock CM9. No new apps installed. Except for cpuspy, bettetbatterystats, and battery monitor widget pro. Still seems like excessive battery drain. Or is it really the cm9 requires that much more juice to run? I have an epic touch 1800 battery that is only a few months old and my battery time on cm7 is almost double compared to cm9. Any thoughts?

Edit: this is a clean install of A3 prior to bed last night.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Where is your CPUspy screenshot? Looks like your phone is not sleeping.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
I forgot to grab it, before I reset it. I wanted to check on the 100mhz issue. But I can tell you that is was 60% even of deep sleep. And about 25% in 200mhz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] djjroc007:
Mine drained pretty bad over night too. :(

Edit.....Forgot to take my cpu spy pic too, but now that you mention it, kenny, it wasn't sleeping. Had 4+ hours at 200mhz, and no deep sleep.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
Here is my last 25 minutes of use, clean install of a3... NO MODIFICATIONS AT ALL!

Performance settings show 200, but 100 is definitely getting used
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
If u click on android OS, my guess is keep awake time will be well over 3 hours...I don't know how to dig deeper to see what's keeping it awake...
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
That is with it sitting overnight with no usage? Should be much better than that. With no usage or charging you should see at least 80% of deep sleep. And nothing should be running that long at 200 Mhz. Check running services, there should only be a few things running there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
Yup. Screen off all night. One app I forgot to mention was Google voice, but that shouldn't be it. No services out if the ordinary running...

Biggeron there is no need to be like that, I mean, he asked in the right section and it a legitimate question. I myself have wanted to start developing but I have no programming experience so I didn't even ask. In terms of the ops question, I'd either get on irc and start talking to developers, or use one of the many kitchen tools to start. Also if you don't know java or a similar programming language, I'd start there.

Here is a kitchen that you might want to use.

To be fair there is something up with this OP.

XDA is a great place to ask questions and you should ask as many as you like....after you have made a substantial effort to help yourself first.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 3d Nirvana:
Hello all, long time lurker here. I got the Trident Aegis case in the mail today and thought I'd compare it to a couple other popular cases out there. I've had the Ballistic SG on my phone for a week or so, so far I'm liking the Aegis!

Size

The first thing I noticed when I took the Ballistic off and slipped the Aegis on is that it feels quite a lot thinner and less bulky. It seems like its right in between the Ballistic and the TPU case for thickness, I tried my best to show that in the pictures.

Protection

The Ballistic is definitely more rugged than the Trident. The silicon is thicker everywhere, the hard layer is thicker, the corners are reinforced, and the ridge around the screen comes farther in and is deeper. While the Ballistic case was on I actually got in the habit of lightly bouncing my phone on the desk to keep my hands busy. I had no doubt that the phone would be fine.

The Aegis is way better than no case at all I'm sure but it's not the same as the Ballistic. If you want protection for frequent drops, go Ballistic. If you want to keep a thinner profile and still have some protection, go for the Aegis. Personally, I'm pretty careful with my stuff, so I'm perfectly happy with the Aegis.

Usability

I feel like I had a better grip on the phone while using the Ballistic case. The corner bumpers not only protect from drops, but also give a nice place for my index and pinky fingers to rest.

The silicon on the Ballistic is stickier, which is great for grip, but horrible for dust and pockets. Getting the Ballistic in and out of my pocket was a pain. Even in a large coat pocket, I always had to jiggle it a little to rip it free. Both the silicon and the hard plastic on the Aegis are smoother. I have no troubles pocketing the Aegis.

Note: The deep bezel on the Ballistic case makes touching the right edge of the screen with my right thumb while holding it in my right hand difficult. I often had to re-swype words that used "P", "O", or "L," with a conscious effort to push all the way to the edge of the screen. Not un-usable, but the issue is non-existent with the Aegis.

Conclusion/TLDR

The Ballistic SG and the Trident Aegis are both great cases. The Ballistic is perfect for people that want a lot of protection and don't mind a little bulk. The Trident is a good compromise for the people that want to keep their phone thin.

Edit: got a few posts, added the images!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globalninja:
I have a Ballistic SG case coming later this week. I was looking for something that will hold up to my immense amount of clumsiness and bad luck, looks like I made a good choice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Yup looks like you did. Another good choice is the tough case by case mate. Its about the size of the Trident case
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] globalninja:
I got my case today. Its great, i'm not worried about dropping my phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
I picked up the trident today. Nice case :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fonseca898:
Nice review and helpful comparison pics.

I'm loving the Ballistic, but like the Ballistic HC case I used on my Evo, it's extreme overkill for running and the office. I''d still use it most of the time but it's difficult to get in and out of my pocket.

So I've got an Aegis in the mail. It will likely replace the TPU and silicone cases I currently rotate between. I have the same two-tone TPU case in your photos, but in clear. Best case for the money.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Simplified:
Nice review, I own a Ballistic case and have often found myself bouncing it on tables when bored...LOL
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fonseca898:
I've had the Trident case for a few days now, the screen is much less recessed and easy to use with one hand compared to the Ballistic SC. My only complaint is that the smooth plastic shell could be slightly grippier. Much easier to get in and out of pockets than the SC, and great thickness for the protection offered. The buttons are prominent and easy to press, and the port covers look durable.

This is the last case I will buy for my phone. I recommend it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] willv23:
thanks for this review... im currently using the TPU case and never heard about the others... i might have to check out the Aegis. Thanks for the review. Appreciated it

Ordered the Trident Aegis, Red and Black, will be here tomorrow!!! Thanks for the review and comments really helped in my decision!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
I couldn't be happier with my Ballistic SG-- as a runner who uses his device as a music player (and person with a clumsy side now and then) when I purchased the Epic Touch in early December the most important decision I had to make was which case is durable enough to survive the occasional drop, had an easy to hold form factor and included access to all ports/keys (headphone jack & volume buttons were most important). I did my research and after seeing the video on the Ballistic site, made my decision and am completely satisfied with it. It's all about what keeps your device safe and meets your specific needs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Thanks the pics are really helpful
