OK I did a fresh install after using mobile odin to flash back to el26 and for some reason I don't get a GPS lock I could've sworn that I've read that its quicker now so what do you guys recommended me do to fix it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuteboomt:
Try getting a GPS lock with "GPS status" from the play store. This can take a few minutes up to 8 minutes. If that does not work you will need to Odin back to a EL29 rom. Once on that ROM get a GPS lock, pull battery with lock, and reflash EL26 to flash CM9 Alph3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jxb25:
OK will try that out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
Anyone lose their touch sounds or keyboard press sounds? Don't know how it happened but I've been on alpha 3 since release and I lost them yesterday. I should hear touch sounds every time an app is tapped or an option is selected but I don't. And all my keyboard seem to have lost keypress sounds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Yup, I've experienced the same. You can download audio manager from the market which will let you control system sounds. You'll notice its set to 0 when you download it. Work around for the moment
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
Exactly as you said. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jxb25:

Having trouble getting a GPS lock again. I flashed back to gingerbread last night just so I could update the profile and prl. Then I flashed cm9 alpha 3 again. When I tried it just after flashing I was able to get a lock, but trying again this morning it's like before: nothing. Can't get a lock at all. Leave it for upwards of ten minutes and no GPS.

Just reporting: using alpha 3 on fresh flash.

1) battery life is decent - got 10 hours with medium to heavy usage. 1 hour of podcast streaming, 1 1/2 hours of phone calls, app downloading, texting etc. 3 hours screen on time.

2) navigation made my battery get really hot (it was a hot day though)

3) chrome force closes

4) data speeds seem slower than stock rom

5) touch screen seems just slightly wacky, but not really a big deal.

All in all a great rom from great devs with very negligible bugs! I look forward to future releases! Thanks for all your hard work!

Whenever someone called me and I pick up, some female voice tells me to answer by pressing 1 or leave a voicemail by pressing 2. I've never had this before and it is kinda annoying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
Using Google Voice?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
Its a setting somewhere in Google voice that causes this. I believe you need to look for in settings in Google voice on a browser, not the app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alexthearmo:
It's "Caller ID" in Google Voice. Go to www.google.com/voice on your comp, go to settings and turn off caller id settings
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
It's actually called "Call screening". Annoying if you just want to answer but great if you just want to send someone to voicemail, listen to their message, and interrupt when it's something important.

So does wimax not work at all? How do you turn it on then?

Also, do you have to use the toggles or can you revert back to the way it is displayed natively in cm9 (I primarily want the brightness slider)?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
The power widget, as it's called, can either have sliding toggles or regular cm9 toggles. However, the 4g toggle refuses to show up. I believe there is a 4g widget for the homescreen.

You can flash the modem and kernel through Odin with out reflashing alpha 3.

I'd go with FD19, not only is it the newest but some people are reporting greatly improved 3G speeds while other people see no change. In my case, my 3G speeds are double to triple the speeds I'm used to. :D:D:D

As with everything else, feel free to test and find the one that works best for you.

Chrome still has issues with this rom still. If I had to take a guess though I would say the issue is on Google's side and they haven't implemented support for our specific CPU and hardware as chrome doesn't work on any for this phone if I remember correctly.

I too have almost zero drain on WiFi. I haven't had a chance to check on 4G yet, but I am on the FD24 kernel posted a couple days ago.

I have on Google syncs for Gmail, Currents (when plugged in), calendar, and contacts for two accounts. I also have HaxSync.

If you're interested, I can find what other settings I have, but my current battery life feels amazing for me.
