if you are asking for help, then you need to provide a lot more info; what rom you are coming from, exact procedures you used for flashing, etc..

if you are just ranting. then thats ok too..

I know this has been asked before but searching isnt that great on tapatalk 2. I changed the dpi to 200 rebooted and cleared google play data in titanium but certain apps still arent compatible or showing up in the market.. what else do i have to do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] datajosh:
Unless something's changed recently you'll need to change the DPI back to the original 240 to get all the apps to show.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
That's what I had to do. I love the look at 200, but I want to get my updates for my apps, and less than half of my installed apps showed in the play store

Anyone else having trouble with bluetooth on CM9? Perhaps I just need to review the instruction manual, but a BT headset I had no trouble pairing with my phone on GB is simply invisible to ICS.

Will need to try pairing with a keyboard to see if it's just the headset or BT in general.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
I have a stereo headset and my alarm clock dock that both are Bluetooth and both work perfectly for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
You must be a pretty heavy user. I am a moderate user and I pull the phone off the charger at 8 am and I still have like 35% when I get home around 530 pm.

Will it connect to any other devices? My headset has a limited number of pairs. I have to reset it when I want to change devices if I forget to unpair it.

CM9 and Samsung USB cable

So I got CM9 beta 2 working last night and wow the system rocks.

However, got one issue, not too long after intalling CM9 my windows xp machine stopped recognizing the phone storage. any ideas? I have done rebooting both phone and computer, plus un-installing/re-installing drivers and changing ports.

The PC gives me a msg that "SAMGUNG mobile MTP device has been found", and then it gets stock; when I remove the unit it says "a problem occurred during hardware installation.

If I go on download mode, ODIN does recognizes the phone and I am able to flash modems and kernels. So the drivers work on that mode but not under regular bootup. Sorry for the brain dump and thanks in advance.

Anyway I am going to try a new cable as well and let you guys know if it works, as while I was reading CM forums it seems that OEM samsung cable does not work well with CM9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
90% of the problems I have with connecting the phone to the pc has always been the cable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
I don't know. I have a Bluetooth keyboard, but I have never tried to connect it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
For those having bad battery life did you sign out of Google Talk?

It is logged in by default and my battery life improved a lot after logging out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shaanfx:
Flickering

Anybody have a bug where when you open the app drawer from the homescreen, it quickly flickers whatever home screen is to the right of the one you're currently on before actually opening the app drawer?

It didn't used to do it, but after I tried to flash an updated alpha2 that didn't boot I went back to the original alpha2 and now I have this going on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mu5ic92:
I can also say this is true. I had talk disabled via titanium. I enabled it just test out if it was really the battery hog.

It automatically kept logging me back into my Gmail accounts without permission and better battery showed it kept waking up the phone. Definitely should be disabled for improvement.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mu5ic92:
Now for my question. That com.android exchange is the stock email app checking for email right? Even if i have it to never sync?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
I haven't been using my phone at all. Super light usage. Only happens on this rom. I've troubleshooted for weeks with the help of many others in irc to no avail. Fml. It will die in seven hours of zero use.

Last we heard was Darch was going to look into it over the weekend, since his time is limited.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
Ok, last I had heard was the post over a week ago that it was coming soon. I'm good with alpha 2 since the only thing that bugs me is the notification volume bug. I was just curious if I missed something since I was working a lot all week.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
why dont you use aokp or cna?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vandam500:
What notification volume bug? I have none :/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] im0rtalz:
Probably the one where if you are listening to music or watching media and if SMS or any notification comes in the volume will be lowered, but it's a minor issue IMO
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
Can someone link the the list of more recent CM9 builds please? On the CM9 install guide all i can find is the 20120331 build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
That's alpha 2. Some of the special people are testing alpha 3
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] spitefulrain:
I know it's alpha 2, i remember there being more recent builds, like a 201204?? build and stuff, but I've since lost the build and the link has been buried in threads. Still alpha2 builds, but updated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garfnodie:
Nothing newer than alpha 2 has been posted on XDA. There have been some newer and hacked kernels and modems, but not whole ROM's newer than alpha 2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
The latest build available is alpha 2. Some people have newer test builds but they are not available to the public.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] huskerpat:
What will hopefully be alpha 3 is in testing today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
I know some other devices have nightlies with that version, but our device hasn't hit nightly stage yet, so we're in between alphas. If you really want to keep up on the latest release, follow the Google+ page or http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lesbox:
So I'm not seeing anyone else report Hotspot issues, but ever since installing CM9 about a week or two ago I haven't been able to get the hotspot function to work properly... Here's what it does...

Click to turn on portable hotspot

says "Turning Wi-Fi on"

notification "tethering or hotspot active"

immediately says "Turning off Wi-Fi"

I've also tried using Wifi Tether v3 and it works, but the speeds are abysmal for some reason - when not tethering I'll get speeds of .70+Mbps, but when tethering with Wifi Tether I get < .20Mbps.... :-(

Would really like to be able to use the built in hotspot option, anyone have any suggestions or ideas?

Since I was having this problem I thought I'd so a total clean install, so I did just that yesterday - EL26 factory rooted>CM7 (for gps fix as that wasn't working either)>CM9

GPS is working amazing! But I'm befuddled on the hotspot issue....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
I had that Hotspot problem too. Exact same thing where it would immediately turn off. It's working now but I honestly don't know what fixed it. Could be reboots, clearing cache and dalvik cache, or just something random.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
The only way I can get it to work is to leave security OPEN. Will not work for me when I set security to WPK2...or something like that.

I am using the built in hotspot right now with security enabled no problem. I'm at work and tethering is my only Internet option here so I'm glad mine is working.

I do have the notification volume bug that no one else seems to have though. (My notification volume goes to max every time I turn my screen on)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anon9mouz:
Has ne one gotten this before where u cant download from the market and it tells u error processing purchase and how to solve it bc i ended up flashing back to el29 bc everything just seemed to poop on me all at once.

If you guys missed the dev thread. Alpha 3 is up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shaanfx:
For alpha 3, do we just odin el26+cwm again like we did for alpha 2?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Yes you do. Sounds like a proper kernel will be in one of the next builds though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shaanfx:
What makes the current kernel not proper?

---------- Post added at 01:18 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:17 AM ----------

Also, thanks for that, got alpha 3 running now!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
By proper I mean that we will have a kernel built from source with cwm built in. Right now its just using a kernel from the tw ics leaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shaanfx:
Oh right. Yeah odining CWM every time is a little annoying lol, but at least the rom is awesome
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
I did read the install guide for CM, but as always...I like to make sure of the proper steps.

I'm currently on CM9 Alpha 2, will upgrade to Alpha 3 in the morning...

After ODINing EL26 recovery...from what I understand(since we are just upgrading), we can just flash Alpha 3 right over A2 without wiping anything...

Is this correct?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Its best to wipe cache and dalvik cache. If coming from alpha 2 there is no need to wipe data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] takeheart:
So, for those in the know: What is a good starting point for manually setting CPU frequency? I've underclocked to 1000 mhz and left it set to "On Demand" for battery life, but I'm not really sure whether that's wise
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Answer I was looking for, thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
That should be just fine. Rule of thumb for playing with cpu frequencies. Never check "set on boot" until you've run the config for a bit and verified no issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Doesn't really matter on alpha 3 because its already a known bug that it won't save your CPU frequency after reboot. But general that is a idea to test first ha.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oiad:
Its stated in the install guide that this is not needed when upgrading.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Aganar:
On alpha 2 at the moment. If I'd like to update my prl before flashing alpha 3 is there any way I can do it without having to wipe data and restore everything from titanium?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
Im pretty sure you need a TW ROM to do that. So yea, a full wipe is in order to do that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 12MaNy:
Trying out alpha 3. Pretty nice.....touch screen seems a little wonky no matter how I set the sensitivity though.

MLB at Bat APP

I see this in the issue tracker. Is it safe to change the build.prop lines below on Alpha 3?

Confirmed on the latest testing build as well. The fix for now - since our ICS builds are unofficial as well - seems to be changing the ro.build.version.incremental, ro.build.description and ro.build.fingerprint lines in build.prop to these:

ro.build.version.incremental=XXLPQ

ro.build.description=GT-I9100-user 4.0.3 IML74K XXLPQ release-keys

ro.build.fingerprint=samsung/GT-I9100/GT-I9100:4.0.3/IML74K/XXLPQ:user/release-keys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] datajosh:
I've been changing those lines in each testing build (and alpha 3) with no problems. Just don't change any of the others :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
I didn't get a response in the ROM thread, so I figure I'll try here. Is anyone getting random restarts or shutdowns with Alpha 3? I installed it once (made no changes), then reinstalled it, and now I just did a complete wipe. I really hope these don't continue. Otherwise I'll have to go back to Alpha 2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] biggtiny210:
I changed min CPU to 500, that seem to fix it, no restarts..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
I flashed it about 6 hours ago and haven't had any reboots or shutdowns at all. Everything is running great for me

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericlikeseatin:
are there different lockscreens in alpha 3? (eg: quad, octo, etc._
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
Still having reboot problems after a full wipe. Any time I jar my phone at all it turns off. This wasn't an issue on Alpha 2.

Anyone with similar problems?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] qfnol31:
I'm going to try this and see if it works. How big a hit has your battery taken?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatmanxxl:
I'd say your battery is loose. Put some tape on it to give it a tighter fit.

No problems with the included camera app
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
So weird enough I had the camera apk installed but it wasn't reading in my apps. Used root explorer to find it in system/apps and I had to install it like a normal app instead of a system app. Working now.

Hmmm...an interesting development...I flashed CM9 A3 yesterday, worked well all day. Took it off the charger this morning and in the course of things, I discovered that I have lost root. The rom is still running well, but I have no root access. I tried the settings in developer options, but root is gone. Guess I'll have to re-root using sfhub's EL29 tool...has this happened to anyone else?:confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
You must go to settings>developers>root access. Root is dependent on the rom. Flashing to a different rom then back to CM9 will not change your root status if you dont enable it in the CM9 settings.

Alpha 3 MMS

I upgraded from Alpha 2 to Alpha 3 and everything is great, except one thing: anybody having an issue where if you try to send a picture MMS, it says "Currently can't send your message.

I'm trying to upgrade from A2 to A3. Right now I am trying to ODIN the EL26 tar which goes fine with no errors until it reboots, shows the yellow triangle, then shuts off or goes to a blank screen. I tried redoing the ODIN 2 or 3 times because I can get back into download mode but have not had any success.

Thoughts?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Take the battery out. Put it back in. Hold volume up + power until the samsung screen appears. Release power but hold volume up. Success?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] firefox90:

can't get cwm5 (el26) to stick

I updated to alpha 3 from calk's v1.4 (fd02), I mobile odin'd the el26 tar first, was able to reboot into recovery manually and installed everything with no issues. Booted up normally, when i try to boot into recovery to backup and flash the sprint vvm zip I get the Stock Recovery. Tried flashing the tar through download mode in odin and mobile odin, got cwm5 to boot manually but no ability to reboot into alpha 3 now that the ics kernel (it seems) has been replaced and removed. Any one now how to get cwm5 to stick and boot normally into alpha 3? Or do I need to just flash the sprint vvm on the initial install? Also if I flash cwm5 to install mods do i need to flash an ics kernel as well in order to boot alpha 3 up again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shaanfx:
Pretty sure you can't unfortunately.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ejlmd:
The CWM 9 kernel only has a rudimentary stock recovery, and overwrites the CWM 5 recovery and EL26 kernel when you flash the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] firefox90:
Got it! Thanks everyone!

I was worried because I could have sworn that the EL26 rom actually booted when I flashed A2.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robertm2011:
Had already checked that, what actually happened is a bit more complex; I had done a backup last night using EL26 and then reflashed CM9 A3 and the gapps. I am using SuperSU instead of Superuser. I had read in the SuperSU thread that you can't use both, so I disabled Superuser. When I booted back from the backup and reflash, SuperSU was unable to download its binaries because it needed permission from Superuser (!); therefore, I had no root. I reenabled Superuser, let SuperSU download it's binaries, and disabled Superuser again. Everything is now good again.

Edit: Sorry, this is in response to post # 4325, brooksyx.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LordFan21:
You can just flash a cm9 kernel if you prefer or you can flash an entire cm9 build.

You do not have to flash gapps if you were already on cm9. This applies to updating cm9 as well gapps will still be there you dont have to flash it again.
