Has the build incorporated the new root access option in the development section? All of cm is moving to this, its posted on their website.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
niv3d asked me that, so I checked, but I didn't see anything like that in any of the options. I thought for sure that was it. I may give it another flash and see if it's working after that.

ha it would be nice to have. I just can't wait for samsung to release the ICS source for this device. Then CM9 builds will probably start to fly and we might even get official cm support.

Can't wait for the alpha! I went from CM9 3/15 build to a touchwiz rom so I could video record, and it just isn't the same.

I'm doubtful that video recording is fixed yet considering it's still very broke for me on 3/22 nightly.

Video recording probably won't be fixed until after the ics source drops.

Does anyone know if on the newer builds the bug has been fixed where if you lower your ringtone volume or enable silent mode the volume always goes back to maximum after the screen goes off and back on?

That bug and the video camera are really the only things I see wrong with this ROM (I'm on 3/11 build)

If I understand your question, that is not currently happening on the official Alpha1 build. Though I've run the 3/11 build and older and never experienced that issue before.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
That is weird, I have had that bug on several builds. Really makes it inconvenient when I'm at work. Still my daily ROM though since everything else is so awesome.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I just read through the install instructions again, and it doesn't say anywhere that once CM9 Alpha 1 is done installing, you won't have a custom recovery, and that you'll need to odin back to el26 to restore or even update cm9.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
You are right. It doesn't specify anywhere that it only uses stock kernel without recovery. You'd have to be following his recent experimental builds to know that he stopped including the recovery to spare more people bricking phones. Again, I know, not fair for you.

Given that there's is no recovery included, then you would have to odin back to EL26 to do any of the actions you indicated.

---------- Post added at 11:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

Sorry, to me it looked like having the kernel and recovery linked had you confused. Like I said, the nex1 and EVO 4G had separate kernel and recoveries. I have a feeling that many of us here had to also adjust to a linked kernel/recovery. I only provided some detail why they are linked.

I apologize if I missed the point you were trying to make.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
Thank for finally seeing my point. I can tell that you have a lot more experience than I do on this kind of stuff, and I value that experience. I think that some of you need to understand that it's very inefficient and inconvenient to have to be jumping around to four different areas just to get an answer about one thing. I understand the need for organization, but if someone has a question about a new ROM, it makes sense that it would be asked on the posting of the rom, not in some other section, in some other thread.

Maybe the forum software needs to have the ability to classify and subsequently organize post as either bug, question, develpment, etc., that way all info on one rom can be under one heading.

Either way, please try to be patient with those of us that are still learning this, I do search and research, but XDA is such a massive resource that it's often hard to find the answer you need.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
I see your position with asking questions on the actual rom dev thread. But I can also see why the devs like to have only bugs with logcats posted on their thread. The problem is that some devs care to have discussion separate from the dev thread, while others don't mind. You'd have to check the 1st post to see if the dev asked discussion to take place in another thread.

Unfortunately, the request to move topics to the discussion thread has been asked many times over, yet seems to be ignored by some members. So people can get frustrated and are quick to lose patients, which can be unfair. And yes, there should be a better way to organize these threads.

By no means am I an android expert, but I like to help when I can.

Request: Slide Lockscreen

Great ROM: stable, 99.9% of everything is working, and great battery life so far!

Just one request that perhaps other people would like to. Would it be possible to mod the slide lockscreen to enable shortcuts to other applications? For instance, right now, the options are slide Left (camera) and Right (unlock). It would be sweet if i could slide Up (messaging) and Down (contacts).

Hey folks, I know there were a lot of ?'s regarding recovery, mine is a little different

I know that this kernel doesn't currently have recovery

I forgot to flash FC22 modem when I flashed CM9

I plan on

Odin'ing the EL26 Stock Repack Modem

Flashing Modem

Reflashing CM

Reflash GAPPS

I was going to reflash CM and GAPPS because I don't know of a stand-alone FC22 Kernel (I believe that's what we have here) that was modded for AOSP (e.g., don't grab the one from Calk's rom)

My real question is this the only way to restore the correct kernel after flashing the modem?

Thanks for any insight.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] knives of ice:
i'm not sure how to enable them without using an app but the app button savior can do on screen buttons for you.

---------- Post added at 02:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:47 PM ----------

exactly. i read and followed the videos to get CM9 on my phone and nowhere did it say you won't have a custom recovery. nowhere did it say that once you get CM9 on the phone you are going to have to jump through hoops to go back to your old rom if you don't like it. basically, i think this information should be included in the original post. i know if you read the 4 different threads you can figure this out but pertinent information like this should be in the main post.

that being said i understand things now and appreciate all the help and explaining. this is just worlds different and so much harder than flashing roms on the Evo, which i think many of us came from. its much harder than flashing on the touchpad as well. i just despise having to use Odin and hooking up my phone to a computer to do things.

that being said i am happy with CM9 in its current state. however a few more questions:

will we soon have a custom recovery that can be flashed through rom mangager or is everything likely to be done through Odin?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] farmerwill:
Just curious but how are everyone else's battery life looking are those screen shots normal?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neodorian:
Followed the info linked by the original post in the dev forum and installed this morning.

It seems to be behaving well and no force closes. Only problem is Android OS battery usage on mine. I will mess with it more today and tomorrow to get an idea of whether or not it's just because I was setting it up and using it more than usual today.

Are there any working versions of BetterBattery Stats for ICS or similar programs? I like to keep an eye on process battery usage when I try out a new ROM.

So far everything else is looking good. I'm looking forward to tracking progress on this one. I think that if I can get around the battery usage this could finally be my first ICS daily.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Specialksg1:
Can't help with the kernel, but if you extract the modem .bin file from your fc22 modem zip you can Odin that using the phone slot instead of pda slot. Then you wouldn't need to do the rest of that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] adma84:
Thanks for the feedback. Looking for a way to avoid using ODIN so I don't increase the binary counter. (don't you have to reset back to EL26 recovery to use USB JIG to wipe?)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
I haven't had screen time like that in a while, but it looks right if you use anything above minimal brightness. Otherwise I can get twelve hours with four hours on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oiad:
When I did the same thing a few builds ago I used mobile Odin back to the el26. Flashed the modem I wanted then reflashed cm9. You could find the kernel on a different post I believe but it doesn't really matter. It will look the exact same after you reflash as it did before. You wont need to reflash gapps if you don't wipe anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Joe Smithereens:
I'm not sure if it happened when I flashed the new modem, but when I went back to EL26 to flash CM9 the EL26 modem remained. Everything worked including GPS. I flashed the FC22 modem through Odin and now my GPS doesn't even try to get a lock. I'll Odin EL26 modem back when I get home to my cable and report back. Does anyone think this may have to do with not being able to update profile/prl?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] adma84:
I believe the update script for this does in fact wipe /system, so I will probably need to flash GAPPS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I'm running the FC14 modem right now and it's seems to be working ok. Flashed it when I first rooted and was running Calkulins EL29 modded rom.

my goodness this is sooooo frustrating. so my phone completely freezes up and won't do anything. i pull the battery and now it will not connect to wifi or 3g. when i try to start wifi i get the following message

WIFI Direct

Start Wi Fi Direct operation. This will turn off wifi/client/hotspot features

cancel ok

except there is no way i can see to start this.

what the heck is going on? i did nothing other than reboot my phone.

any ideas?

edit - ok now i got wifi to finally turn on. it says connected but does not have any connection the wifi icon is still grayed out just like the 3g icons when wifi is off. i have a signal but nothing turns blue.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
High android os usage is common for our processor. This can be exaggerated if you have apps requesting background data. Also, there's a long delay for our processor to enter deep sleep, so there could also be an app or a setting you chose that doesn't allow the CPU to deep sleep. For now, I would try installing apps slowly to see if 1 of them is causing a problem, and I would avoid using any settings that has the phone poll for notifications (like the led). Just keep in mind that android os will remain higher than you'd expect.

And I'm using better battery stats now on cm9 and don't notice a problem.

I just noticed a similar problem as reported before. My phones battery was sitting at about 40%, I rebooted my phone as I was messing around with something, when it booted up, it was instantly at 20%, noticed this and rebooted again and then battery jumped up to 25%, and now seems to be going down normally from there. I have a feeling calibration is off, how can I get out to recalibrate?

Has anyone been able to flash the fc22 modem through mobile Odin? I have the .tar file and flash it but it seems it never sticks. Can anyone please give me some assistance?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
Mobile Odin is known for not being able to flash modems. Use odin pc in phone slot, or flash it after you flash a rom and gapps because you don't want to be using ICS recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
I noticed this with gb roms also, which leads me to believe it has something to do with how the battery stats are read by the kernel. I hadn't bothered to dig any further past this observation.

If you are asking about battery calibration since you can't wipe stats from recovery, I think there's some apps in the market that will do this for you. I've used battery monitor widget pro to do this in the past.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
As darkfire replied, mobile Odin can't apply modems as of yet. The PC Odin works as expected.

Besides Odin-ing back to a GB rom and doing the GPS lock-Turn off-Flash ICS ROM trick, is there a way to fix GPS lock on CM 9 alpha? Mine gets no lock whatever indefinitely.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I know that, just not for me. I had EL26, then updated to EL29 through OTA, then I rooted and started running Calk's EL29 mod and still had not battery issues. My battery issues didn't start until I started running CM9 ICS.

No big deal though, I'll work through it. My old Nexus One had battery issues with different mod's and it eventually got fixed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
download faster fix and gps status from the market; run faster fix, and set servers to North America...then run gps status; clear status from tools/manage a-gps state; reboot phone, then go back to gps status, and download gps status, and see if that helps

TW Camera on CM9

Any chance of getting the TW camera on CM9, that's the only thing I really liked and miss from TW.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
CM9 is AOSP. If you want the touchwiz camera your are going to have to look into that your self. If it were to included the touchwix camera it would go against the whole point of CM9.

But that doesnt mean its not possible. You might just be able to drag and drop the camera apk from one of the ICS TW leaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I never expected that it would be included in CM9, but figured this was the best place to ask and see if anyone knew how to make it work in CM9 on the E4GT. I never thought about trying the apk from a TW ICS leak, I'll do that. I tried installing the apk from a nandroid backup I had from EL29, but it wouldn't install. I figured that it most likely wasn't working cause I don't have any of the TW base software anymore. But I was amazed at how many of the sense apps people were able to port over to CM7 on my nexus one, so I thought I'd put the idea out there.

When I pull the apk from an ICS leak, do I need to go through the Install process, or do I just copy it to the /system/app folder?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
If the .apk doesn't install then you'll have to push it to system/app or maybe data/app and change permissions then reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I prefer to use root explorer to put stuff into the system and data folders. Is there anything different about how adb does it compared to just using root explorer, or can i just make the folder r/w in root explorer, copy them, change back to ro and then reboot?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
I highly doubt it will work because the camera drivers are different.

The dev of the nicely modded tw camera in the theme/app section has said he'll also mod the aosp camera once source code is out. Til then, maybe another camera app in the market will due, like camera zoom.

Sent from my SPH-D710
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
You can use root explorer to do the whole process. Sorry if I didn't make that clear.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
Ok, cool. I've never used root explorer to put an apk into the system, just other stuff like bootanimation or system sounds, so I didn't know if there was something special or different how adb did it.
