Mine was set ondemand by default apparently. I would think setcpu might be overkill on this rom at the moment. May have freezing problems trying to underclock or setting profiles also....just a thought.

---------- Post added at 08:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 PM ----------

For me it works on 3g but a no go on wifi.

Edit: also give FB27 modem a try. I had bad results with previous modems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kwan:
Hmm, I am on FB27 modem. Wifi was on, but after I turn it off, it still doesn't download.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigJPNut:
Try reinstalling and wiping data,cache and dalvik after flash before booting. Helped when i had a weird freeze issue for no reason. Also flash rom twice and gapps once right before wiping. Also Im running great without the added draw of setcpu. I personally dont think its a necessity on this build. Good luck!

Edit: If all else fails try my method in post #3239. Fixed many little issues on 3 different phones....YMMV.

How to avoid LOS in CM9

Ok, since everyone seems to be having trouble with MMS or SMS issues, or still getting LOS, heres what I did.

Make sure you read all of the steps before you do anything. I will not be held responsible. If your phone causes the alarm not to go off, blows up in your hand, or causes a thermonuclear war, NOT IT!

Now that thats clear, on to the instructions.

1) I used odin to go back to stock EL29 with root. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433101

2) I used the auto root package at the very front of the Developer forum, using option C, then option L. http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1433101

3) After the program finished and restarted, I logged into the android market, then went to maps, and got a lock. This is important.

4) Next, I went into software updates, and updated both my profile and my PRL. Make sure they update. If it errors out, just try again.

5) Once that was done, I went into recovery, and flashed CM 7.2.0. http://rootzwiki.com/topic/12440-ro...ha-6-1-15-2012-i-cant-believe-its-not-butter/

6) Upon rebooting into CM 7.2, I rebooted into CWM.

7) Once in CWM, I immediately flashed CM9 Alpha 4 without wiping anything first.

8) I REPEAT, I DID NOT WIPE ANYTHING BEFORE FLASHING CM9.

9) YOU JUST WIPED BEFORE FLASHING CM9 DIDN'T YOU?

10) After flashing both CM9 and Gapps v7.1, http://cmw.22aaf3.com/gapps/gapps-gb-20110828-signed.zip I then wiped data, cache, and dalvik cache.

11) Warning, do not format /system. I repeat, DO NOT FORMAT /SYSTEM!

12) DON'T YOU FORMAT IT! YES YOU!

13) After rebooting, enjoy.

I have not once yet experienced LOS, or sms, or MMS issues. Only issue I see with this build is youtube playback. But I can live with that for the time being. Great job sbrissen and team! Keep up the good work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] firket2000:
I get that some times. A reboot fixes for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kmull4:
So if we want to revert back to gingerbread, we odin back? or can we just upload a backup? Don't want to brick this thing again.

I would odin, just to be safe...

Yeah me too but when I reboot I lose like 30% battery! Guess I have to live with it.

I used Calkulin format all when I flashed cm9 with no problems:rolleyes::confused:

I:

- One click to rooted EL29, install repack with rogue.

- Boot to rogue, wipe data, cache, dalvik, then flash miui

- Reboot to cwm, wipe data, cache, dalvik, then flash format all

- Flash cm9 and gapps

I never have any problems with wiping system. I always wipe system to make sure I have a fresh install and works every time..

P.S. Fixed an error in your post and commented on it.. Step 9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
I think the original CM9 was correct since he's talking about wiping in between flashes.

I wiped too and didn't have any problems, but I didn't get Youtube in the Gapps from 2-24 that I used. Was it not packaged in there?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MikeC84:
I flashed this yesterday and have YouTube on mine. I used the gapps7.1.

if you look in the Q&A thread some one posted a download for 3.3.5 youtube app just install that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] javan966:
i have been testing different modems FB21, FB27 & EL29 with this ROM and so far i haven't gotten 1 LOS with the EL29 modem

FB21 modem 1 to 2 LOS like every 5 to 7 hours

FB27 modem 1 to 2 LOS like every 3 to 5 hours (faster data connection with this modem)

EL29 modem - over 24 NO LOS yet

so far data reconnection issue still exist as far as coming off wifi or coming out of a bad signal area where you lose 3G happens on all modems, think this is a CM9 bug

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nique0201:
They used to have a los detector you could flash so when your phone los'd it would close and reopen its connection automatically can someone make a script for us to flash on cm9??? It would help out a lot. I used to use it on blazer rom.... it may be compatible with cm9 anyone know
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] evanoliver:
this seems to hold true for me as well. I was getting 2-5 LOS an hour with FB27 and that number has been drastically improved by flashing back to EL29

I'm fairly sure that the failure to recover after a signal loss is due to a Samsung driver issue. Its just in the cyanogen bug tracker because someone found a solution to it.. could be wrong though.

Sorry for any type-os I'm on my tab.

Anything new on this? I've always lived on Sprint's VVM and this is killing me. The app gets the notification, but it can't seem to download the message. I was hoping when MMS started working in Alpha 4 that messages would start coming in, but it didn't.

I now have a constant notification to call my VME from VVM to check for messages, even though I've listened to all of them.

Google voice works great!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
Google voice is so much better on ICS. It's amazing how much of a difference there is.

I switched everything to Google Voice a while back, but now the app is my main text message application as well and I'm very happy with it, even if I can't customize it as much as Handcent.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] h20wakebum:
Hmm... anyone else notice the speaker phone sounds muffled?

It works fine on bluetooth/headset...

Other than that this thing is smooth!!!! GPS works fine...

It's a little annoying to have to mount SD each time phone boots.. but whatever...

When you get to go into a sprint store and show the guy with his epic 4g touch that works there ICS... it's all worth it.

you could just flash alpha 4 twice and just wipe cache, no need to flash gapps.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fataldesain:
Well just bricked my phone upgrading to alpha 4 from 3.1, yep done with cm9 until it's flawless. It's totally all my fault but I was getting crazy los on all fb modems so I went back to el26 then I got tired of cm9 issues and went back to calks 2.8.1. Then a friend as asking me about ICS and I had a nandroid of it so I showed it to him. Then got busy and stuck with it for a while was debated to try calks beta 3 or alpha 4.

Anyway what I did is I first didn't wipe cache or anything, then alpha 4 for about 30 mins just said installing update. Then I took out the battery. And boom fathered my first blue light brick. Went to sprint get a new phone on wed.

Just want to say this is why I hate touchwiz and sense and google for all this crap. Just give people pure google and call it a day. All this rooting is getting out of hand every day is a new rom, kernal etc. Got my dad a nexus s and I just want him to have a good stable ics rom but all have at least one bug or more and lag a some points no matter what config I do.

I'm starting to forget the advantages of rooting because it seems like a bunch of devs are working on stuff that should already be that way. People should not have to work basically for free to make a phone they have better.

Thanks and sorry bout your phone but at least you got a new one
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
At this point I feel I need to speak up. I think I got that light too at one point and did some stuff with taking out and replacing the battery. I remember taking it out and holding down the power button for a bit and putting it back in a bit later, but I'm really not sure what I did. For a few tries I couldn't get passed the blue light, but I'm pretty sure I did.

Honestly I don't remember much from that night, but I am almost positive that I had that brick problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fataldesain:
Maybe it's not the final brick but I tried for like 30 mins, I could get the light to blink if I pushed certain buttons but I need a phone so I know sprint will just replace it, I want a new one anyway mine had a light scratch in the corners from my incipio case.

See I didn't do the odin to stock cwm recovery because I didn't think it was needed. I don't understand the difference between that and rogue or acs since they are all built off the same base. Either way I didn't even read about how to flash alpha 4, I was playing gears of war and not thinking for some reason. I didn't think alpha 4 was installing so I just pulled the battery, maybe it was but it was over 30 min and it never takes that long. Anyway it's totally my fault, who knows maybe the sprint tech can fix it I rather he doesn't but oh well.

Rooting my dad's old htc hero which I never got around too, he is loving the nexus s 4g. I just so afriad the phone will not wake up and his alarm will not go off due the the rom.

Just to confirm, are you actually having los or are you just losing data??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hermeticist:
flawless accept for YouTube not working properly and Netflix not working at all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sanchez:
Both, sometimes I would completely lose service and nothing aside from a reboot would fix it but that was the exception. Most of the time I'd just lose data (3g/4g). This was even happening at home where I have an AirRave so my 3g data should be flawless at home.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KBizzle:
Yeah. I was just checking. I know that it does have issues bringing data back from wifi to 3g. I'm assuming it would be the same going between 4g and 3g. If you're using an airrave, I can assume your signal isn't the greatest, so there is a good chance if it goes into 1x, it will lose data or get stuck there. Unfortunately there isn't a fix to this just yet. I know how important signal can be, so you might wanna go back to gingerbread or move over to one of the touchwiz ics builds until we get kernel source to fix the signal issues. Or keep rebooting. Lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sanchez:
Meh, I'm on wifi most of the time, it just bugs a little bit when I go out somewhere, need to look something up and have to reboot haha. It's not worth going back to GB and especially not TW because TW is terrible :D The signal loss being the only issue isn't enough to dissuade me!

I also have no qualms with flashing multiple times a day, modems, kernels or ROMs, with Heimdall it's a matter of typing out 4 words and it's done. I'll just keep trying stuff until it works!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KBizzle:
Sounds good. Sbrissen has been very quiet. I'm sure he is working away on as much as he can fix.

I normally just got back to CM7 and start over. (Remember these are alpha roms) Best to start fresh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ndfan77:
Vibration in Alpha 4 was pretty weak (impossible to detect when in a holster). That's a deal-breaker in my normal work environment. Don't know if that's a function of the ROM or kernel -- but hopefully it's better in Alpha 5 (I saw a post on the FC05 thread that vibration was stronger in that ROM).

Battery life wasn't terrible in Alpha 4, but it was also nowhere near as good as EL29. (I suspect SetCPU or CPU Tuner could improve on that -- but it seems like the CM9 OOB configuration should do better without help.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
