anyone having a problem with losing data service when wifi is activated on the FD02 modem and FD02 kernel?

as soon as I toggle wifi on the wifi and mobile meters in the status bar are blue for a second or two and then they both go grey. i can live with it because i'm getting better 4g than i ever have with the FD02 modem but i'm just curious why it's happening.

if it matters, the way i got to my current setup was ODIN EL29 rooted. used sfhub's eg4tauto to install EL26 CM kernel. Flashed FD02 modem. Updated Profile and PRL. went to recovery, wiped data, cache and dalvik. flashed alpha2, flashed gapps, and then flashed the FD02 kernel darch posted recently.

USB OTG in CM 9

Does alpha 2 support USB OTG?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
Damn I would love to try but I already have alpha 2 set up the way I want it. I will probably try on the next release
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Wtf... Can you detail your setup if you have time?

I want to change the /mnt/emmc mount point to use /mnt/sdcard so I have more room for music etc... for apps that sync (isyncr for instance ) where you cant change it from using the default /mnt/sdcard ... Has anyone done this, I've asked everywhere trying to find an answer can't find one. Would modifying /system/etc/vold.fstab be the best option? That's mounted as read only though, not sure how to modify it. Also I'm sure there are other changes probably needed in other files, not sure where those would be though... Or are there any better options people are using?

Currently this ROM is by far my favorite , super stable and fast, this is the only remaining issue I have
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
Not sure if this has been answered and sorry if it has i hate redundant questions. tried searching and nothing came up, not even sure what exactly to search for.

randomly my menu key seems to act like it is being pressed. today i was using gps and was watching the menu pop up and go away over and over again with haptic vibration every time. no idea what caused it. no way of recreating it. just curious if anyone else had this problem. other than that everything is great. i did do a clean install coming from a diff. ics rom. have since updated modem and added VVM by mobile odin of cwm and then reflashing cm9 a2.

thanks for any input
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
Never experienced this. Might be hardware?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SPIK3:
This has happen to me in about every rom I have tried, I think it might be hardware problem but does not happen too often so does not bother me too much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mu5ic92:
Its might just be you battery is borked. Oc to el29 stock and take it in to sprint. Have then check out the phone or battery. They will order a new battery for you. Solved alote of battery issues for me. Or course free battery of you have TEP
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] radrian92:
Does anyone have trouble with their 4g on alpha 2? I'd be watching Netflix and all of a sudden it stops and I have no internet connection. A reboot fixes this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
Anyway to get allshare working?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
Yeah i don't think it's hardware this is the first rom I've used that had done it. If i wanted to do a fresh install i know i need to flash the kernel to get cwm back but i feel like i see some say to not use the format all script. Can you though. I usually wipe everything 3x. Just want to make sure i get the cleanest install possible. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Specialksg1:
Don't use Calk's format all. I believe it formats system which must be intact when you flash cm9.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
4G stayed on strong and steady for me on Alpha 2 while I was in Vegas.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
This is what I've been starting t think was the case. Thanks man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Today I'm at 6.5 hours with pretty minimal use. I've got 18% left... So around seven hours is what I'm expecting... Well 15% left now lol.... Balls. This is with pretty minimal use..

Think I may go back to stock (even though I hate it with a huge passion) for a day or two to see how battery life fares :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Although, every app that tracks battery says my battery health is "good" though.... Sighhhhh down to 13% now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
It almost has to be your battery, man. I'm at 6 hours right now, with 2 hours of screen on time, and I still have 72% left. Do you have someone around you with an extra battery you could borrow to test it out?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FrameCityJackal:
I've been having to reboot either it's instagram or the rom. I would plug in my headphones in and I get no sound and I couldn't adjust the volume it pops up but has a line through it and it's blacked out.

I should have did a logcat. I just updated instagram and I'm out now so I'll see if that was the problem when I get home.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
No one with extra batteries.. I have TEP.... So does sprint have a way to test the battery and hook me up with a new one or do I need to go back to stock? Blargh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Also, I took a bunch of photos of my battery apps that I have running. It won't let me upload screen shots here, but if I post them on image shack or something would one of you guys be willing to take a look to see if you can find anything abnormal?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Sprint will check out your phone/battery even if you're rooted, especially if you have TEP. I always throw a stock ROM on there anyway, just so they don't get confused. I'm sure they have a way to test the battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dcaplinger76:
Same thing been happening to me, it started happening shortly after installing instagram.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dcaplinger76:
I too have this terrible battery life on here but other roms I get at least 17 hours, so it's not my battery. I installed badass battery and it shows "kernel" as about 80% of my battery use
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
Don't know but you can try iMediaShare. Works on DLNA devices and could be just enough for whatever you wanted AllShare for.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dodgerbluehero:
I've been reading your post and I'm in the same boat as u are. On cm9 I got an average of 8 hours on light to moderate use. I went back to el29 yesterday and my battery life is outstanding again! I got 15 hours on calkulins rom. I know some may say that they get a day or what not but for me 15 hours is more than enough and excellent for me. So I hope something can be done because as much as I love the batter life I loved cm9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] radrian92:
Is camera sound immutable? I tried to silence it under menu but I still get sound.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Specialksg1:
1. Turn on camera app

2. Turn down volume

3. ????

4. Profit

normally number 3 is a complete mystery ... in this case, I assume number three has something to do with upskirt photography ;) lol

Not sure if this is a temporary workaround or if they plan on making the camera mutable in the future ... but it works for now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
Thanks. I'll try it. I use allshare with my samsung led tv.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I ran Calkulins format all when I installed Alpha1, i actually ran it three times, as well as ran all the other wipe options three times. When I installed Alpha2, I didn't wipe a thing, just as the install guide said, and not had a single problem.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Cool thanks for the info man. Glad to know I'm not the only one... My kernel however does not have near the usage that yours does... Have you gone to another rom since you've been on cm9? And battery life was good? If that's the case I'd imagine it's my issue as well...

Very curious to me that others report stellar battery life
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] radrian92:
+1 :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Yeah my kernel was only at like 19%
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dcaplinger76:
Yeah I've switched and battery life was back to my normal. Maybe something when I flashed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dcowboys2184:
Whoa... Anybody else receiving these random texts messages about iPhones and other stuff.. What's weird is that i was getting these with the epic.. But not with the photon now they back again! ..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
just curious if you have facebook on your phone? i use friendcaster and noticed my battery life went up when i removed fb.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Ok thanks, that helps me have one less reason to go stock (hate that garbage)... If only we could get our android os and kernel use down like everyone else.....

Btw, I also flashed the fd02 kernel and modem... Did not help.. Guess we are unlucky and will just have to wait... Setting wifi to sleep when not plugged in and turning off notification lights did not help either..

Has anyone had any trouble with Widgetlocker installed? I've been using it for a while, but I'm starting to wonder if it's causing poor battery life on my phone right now. Has anyone had any experience with it so far?

I would test it but I can't install it from the market. I keep getting an error (403) on the market when I try to install almost any of my paid apps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I looked back a few pages but haven't found anything... Isthe gps working on alpha2? The icon turns on but doesn't blink or anything... Is there a trick this, or just doesn't work? Tia
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
It seems to be hit or miss. My GPS works fine, always has, but others are reporting that it's not working, or it not working very well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuteboomt:
With the FC02 Modem I was having issues with GPS. It would connect but then drop two miles down the road. I went back to FC24 and it works as good as a Samsung phone can do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Yep. I've gotten a lock on mine to 2 meters. What I did was Odin back to Gingerbread, got a GPS lock, then booted into recovery, flashed Alpha 2 twice, flashed GApps, booted up and immediately installed GPS Status. Got a lock in it, opened up Maps, got a lock in it, turned on Navigation to make sure it worked.

This method has always worked for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
I forgot to do the GB lock trick prior to flashing and was hoping for a work around.. Mine doesn't even blink..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pbrbent:

Does the LOS/3G issue still exist? It mainly happened in low signal areas.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Specialksg1:
Only issue I've had with any kind of los is when I leave my house and don't turn wi-fi off before I go. As long as I turn it off before I leave the house I haven't lost service at all.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robpet2:
This is an app related issue.. some app you have recently installed is responsible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iPervOnU:
i just stuffed my face with massive amounts of food
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlightningbirdx:
Just wondering,how exactly do you install cwm or rogue recovery to the cm9 alpha 2 rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iPervOnU:
Modin in el26 cwm
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Loving this ROM like a BigMac.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wizard Knight:
You don't. Causes bricks. If you wanna flash another rom, Odin EL26 kernel with cwm and do it that way

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nascasho:
Dunno if anyone already figured it out, searched and saw many users went to around 190dpi/200dpi because of the phone apk crashing at 160dpi, which looks flipping sweet on this device.

Well, got it working. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sjsharksfan420:
so.. I like to test all the latest and greatest when they are released, I have tested pretty much every rom that has been released, from GB to ICS. What I found was that some builds are faster than others, obviously. But what I noticed right away with CM9a2 was that it really is smokin fast. When restoring my apps, on all other ICS roms, it takes about 2 hours to restore about 125 apps. The same restore only take about 15 minutes on CM9a2. I have tested this with all the current builds of BlendICS, AoSP, CNA and AoKP, and CM9a2 just blows them all away in speed. (I am about to run a test with todays build of AoKP, I will post my results when finished)

update: the latest AoKP is just as fast as CM9a2.. sweet :)

I think the ultimate list of backups right now is AoKP (4/5/12), CM9a2, & Blazer v4.1

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
So, this phone apk won't crash at 160?

Edit: Works for me. Thanks man!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
Works great! Thank you now I can enjoy pseudo 720p :D

EDIT: By the way, what grid sizes do you like with 160 lcd density?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
I've got mine set at 7 rows 4 columns. I like it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I find that 200 dpi is the sweet spot for the phone. At 160 its difficult to bring down the notification bar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
I had that issue on Touchwiz, but it's coming down just fine on CM9.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Cool I'll check it out then, I didn't bother with it on Cm9 due to the crashing. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nascasho:
Yeah, pull down works pretty okay, new user to the E4GT, never even used GB the day I got it lol. Just went straight to CM9a2.

50/50 when you touch above the screen and move your finger down it'll pull down. Don't know if it's sensitivity related though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Might want to throw the APK up in the Themes and Apps forum for E4GT too. I'm sure there's more than a few people that want to go to 160.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nascasho:
Oh good idea, will do. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dschachm:
You can use Nova launcher and select open notifications when swiping down on Home screen with prime. That way it always comes down.

This rom has been awesome I'm loving it oh so greatly haa

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pathtologos:
Must say first this is the best rom I've had on this device. I haven't been tempted to flash anything else. Well, maybe tempted, but not enough to go thru with it. I've read thru quite a bit of this forum and haven't seen this issue I'm having brought up. Basically my apps aren't updating. Even when I go to the play store and go to the "my apps" section it always says my apps are up to date. I've seen twitter updates refer to app updates that I should be getting. Also, and I'm sure its related, often times I look up a specific app I have installed on my device to see if I get the update button and even tho its installed, the update button ain't there and I see a message saying the app version isn't compatible with my device. Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuteboomt:
Quick question, have you changed your LCD density? If so that is why you are having trouble in the Play store. Changing the density back to stock should fix it. You might have to reflash the rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pathtologos:
yes I have and I think I see where you're going with this...brilliant! (or me being stupid). The apps "think" they're not compatible because I changed the density, correct? So if I return the density back to 240, I should get my updates?

thanks

EDIT: Did work to some extent. The REALLY bizarre thing is that I can't update my gmail app. The play store continues saying that the update is not compatible with my device. After seeing this I used Titanium to uninstall, I rebooted, then went to play store to download gmail--got the same message, "not compatible with your device." Any other ideas? It's not a huge deal, I mean I still get my gmails (I restored thru titanium), its just weird and kinda annoying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
I set my density to 190 and all is updating just fine. It seems that between 190 and 240, and the phone still thinks it's a phone, any lower than 190 and you get into tablet territory and app's aren't updating.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wizard Knight:
Make sure you clear data in manage apps for the play store after changing density
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
I changed my LCD density for the first time on this phone and I love it at 200!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neuteboomt:
What app are you using to change your LCD density? ROM tool box?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
I use root explorer and just edit the build.prop file in /system
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
ROM Toolbox will also let you adjust your screen density. It gives you a slider to adjust your screen density.

Has anybody been experiencing screen rotation issues? I can rotate to landscape, but I can't seem to get it back into portrait. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
anyone else get boot loops using rom toolbox, when trying to change the density or the fonts?

it doesn't happen on any other rom , except this one, at least for me..

thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
No boot loops here, but all I've done is change screen density and boot animations with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
I think it might have to do with me changing more than one thing at a time and rebooting; last 2 times I did density and font and that boot looped; I just did sd card tweak and font, and got boot loops again..

thank god for Heimdall!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
Just tried CM9 reloaded located in app development. Everything seemed fine. The only issue i found was that i couldn't get the 4G toggle added into the notification power widgets.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlightningbirdx:
Haha nevermind, I got it fixed by recalibrating the gyroscope. But Thanks! :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RubenRybnik:
Has anyone tried setting density to 180 or 160? I know this puts it into "tablet" mode from what I've read here, but when I was on AOKP anything under 190 was causing boot loops forcing me to reinstall the ROM, I really like 160, but don't want to try it and have to reinstall since I've got everything perfect right now. Unless I hear someone else has done it successfully ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I haven't tried it yet, but a few pages back someone posted a phone.apk that's 160 compatible. Looks for the 160 dpi screenshots.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Somairotevoli:
make a nandroid backup, try it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire2024:
I've been playing with 160 for the day, and it's nice but I think that sometimes the text gets too compacted that it blurs.

No forcecloses for me, make sure to install the modded phone.apk in the theme and app section if you do try out 160.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
I'm running 160 and love it. I've definitely missed being able to go this low.
