I don't see navigation by Google after I installed Google maps...

Chrome is working fine for me no issue at all... so far so good I'll report more I'll be using this as my DD 4 now...

Ooo and I can't see the contents of my external SD card?? Anyone have this issue

What CWM kernel do I need to flash to restore nandroid backups from where I am?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
Just want to let everyone know -

Watch your temperature when you are charging. I've been running this a while now and while it's unplugged the temperature is fine, but when it's plugged in, after a bit it gets really hot (118 F). I did an adb top and it is that damned /system/bin/netd again, but a reboot fixes it.

Just be mindful and don't let it just sit on the charger for hours if it starts getting hot.

Flash CWM > Make a NANDROID > Flash ICS > Boot up > Reboot to Recovery > Flash GAPPS > Boot up > Enjoy! (if needed > reboot recovery > restore NANDROID)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
yes, you can restore from a backup with this rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ImaWinRAR:
just echoing blackrose because this thread is on fire and some might have missed this: 2d gpu rendering fixes the screen flickering.

idk why but the screen looks a bit sharper to me, anyone else see it?

anyone having luck syncing contacts w/ fb?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
I was told I need to flash another CWM kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iBustCh3rries:
I've found that going to developers options in settings and checking force gpu rendering fixes the glitchy screen problems... not sure if it cripples the phne at all but all seems to be well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazy_smokezalot:
Not necessaraly to restore u can use the recovery that comes with the alpha 2 rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Specialksg1:
From where you are? Depends ... where are you? Are you running CM9 already?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
everything looks sharper on this rom!!

So far, only a glitch or 2 with syncing stuff...once BT, externals sd, and camera works, this will be everyones rom of choice!!

great job, Scott!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pathtologos:
Looking for someone to confirm an issue. First off, damn this is awesome. Now that that's out of the way. I've noticed the device runs perfect (no heat, no lag, etc.) UNTIL I start downloading apps from the market. I've noticed it 3 times now. When I install a new app, it downloads find but when the "installing..." part starts, I start to notice lag, then it starts getting hot. Once I notice it finish installing, I power down and turn it back on. Voila--no heat, no lag.

Anyone else getting this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
When it gets hot again, get on adb and do adb shell then top.

It'll tell you what is using the CPU the most, I guarentee it'll be /system/bin/netd in the 90 to 99% range.

Does anyone else know how to link Facebook as an Account, I go into the account section click add select Facebook and it just returns me back to the accounts screen. Am I doing anything wrong? I like this feature strictly for getting contact pictures lol. This Rom is an amazing accomplishment! Thank you so much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pathtologos:
Anyway to correct it? Or just wait for the next build? Are you getting it as well?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
cm7 -> cm9 (no wipe, except cache + dalvik)

gets extremely warm when phone in use.

i set 2d rendering. seemed to fix some bugs.

and set data to automatic instead of home.

having some minor issues.

also installed spareparts to increase speed of animations. sometimes takes to long.

(also did adb root + adb remount, figured it couldnt hurt)

other than that..

thank you dev team!!!! ++++

EDIT:

also seems like a brightness bug. very dim. doesn't auto change properly.

EDIT2:

sms are going through but they are showing that they failed. anyone have ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Damn...I really want to run this as a daily, but I can't with mobile network randomly switching itself off. So far, seems to only happen when I'm on wifi.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
No way to correct it until a new build is released. Scott thought it was ironed out but it seems to be rearing its ugly head still.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hoopsdavis:
How's everyone battery experience so far??

My charge went down really fast.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
Probably because netd is running the CPU so high. Also because it was just flashed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
yeah me too. I was at 56 percent when I flashed, and after setup I was at 15. Gonna calibrate and see if that helps.

Its really hard to go back to touchwiz after using this. Anyone know how to turn off CTR screen off? Looks kinda crummy imo...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
TouchWiz can be mostly removed with the ICS theme and Calk's 2.8.1 ROM. Links in my signature...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vandam500:
I'm pretty sure Google Voice doesn't support MMS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
I'm excited and thankful for this! But I will wait until more things are fixed especially wifi and camera. Good progress though!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
Not a comphrensive report, it's too soon.

But I've been using my phone for 3 hours 54 minutes on this ROM. I flashed it with a full battery charge (from overnight charging) and I'm still at 65%. This is with 1 hour 31 minutes of screen on time and 54 minutes of voice calls, plus running some apps. So looking like it's not gonna very much in the battery life department :D :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikel719:
Thanks evy one. I got it booted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DonutGrunt:
maybe i have downs, but i swear i've tried every method to installing this and all i get is a the logo screen frozen.

i came from Blazer EL29, with Rogue Recovery

I first tried installing CM7 to get a CWM

installed CM7, booted it just to make sure, and it does

go back to recovery

install the teamhacksung_alpha1 or whatever

wipe data/factory reset like the original post says

and i reboot

stuck on screen

i even tried the

flashing CWM recovery

install cm9

wipe cache

reboot

stuck at samsung logo like the poster said it should and says to go back to CWM and install CM9

so i do that

still stuck at the screen

am i missing something here?

i even redownloaded the zip file to make sure it wasn't corrupt

and i also installed the stock CWM EL26 zip from chris

http://chris41g.devphone.org/index.php?dir=EpicTouch/Stock+Repack/EL26/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] master acehole:
So im confused how install still you have to unmount system then flash then wipe data????? n don't even touch cache thats what I gathered from the op? I dont wanna brick my phone im at work sos
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Great work so far with the rom. Ran it for a bit this morning and got to play with a few things. Sure things are not 100% but I knew that going in since its an alpha. Thank you to all of the devs that are working on this its looking great and its nice to see it for our phone now as well. I hope this can get some official love once this.vs are final but for now great work and thank you all again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
I didn't unmount the system. I just went to CWM, flashed this over MIUI and cleared data/format system, which automatically wipes your cache for you.

It worked fine the first try and I've been using it since.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
I followed the same process (except I came from cm7) and flashed cm9 twice before wiping data/format system. Works a treat. I heavily rely on gmail, and I was getting painfully slow data speeds (maybe because I was using an airave at the time? Not sure) so I had to nandroid back. Very excited with what i've seen so far. Can't wait for more progress! Awesome work guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] a63548:
Spectacular job sbrissen! Thank you very much. This is awesome :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] master acehole:
Ok great thanks I'll try it through miui = )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Doesn't look good if you change your DPI, that's for sure. I tried Nova Launcher and ADW EX. ADW came closest, but it was like I had a double notification bar at the top. Still, awesome work. Once wifi and mms work, this will be a daily for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
+1. Well, and SD mounting of course
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
Oh yeah, I forgot that. That's a necessity as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Try apexlauncher its in xda really nice no problems right now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
I'll try that. Thanks.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] a63548:
Loving everything so far. Running very smooth and fast.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingohearts2005:
I came from the same rom.

What I did was download the CWM EL26 zip from chris.

Reboot into recovery, Did my backup

Wipe data/factory reset, wipe dalvik-cache

install CWM EL26 zip from chris

reboot recovery

wipe data factory reset again, ensure that the system is not mounted in mounts and storage

then go flash the rom. It should flash just fine. Don't forget to wipe data after you flash the rom as the instructions state as well

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mazook98:
Hey guys, here's the fix for the stock browser:

(I put this in the dev thread, too, but just to make sure everyone who wanted a fix saw it:)

Type about:debug into the address bar in the browser,and press enter.

Then press settings, and go down, and press 'debug'.

Then, simply disable opengl rendering.

Done. (And it works.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] XBMC4LIFE:
Quick question I have a rogue recovery and I followed the steps to install and it got aborted. So... I flashed hitman which has the touch cwm and still it go aborted. I really want to see what this experimental build looks like could anyone give me some advice on where im going wrong please.

Much apperciated!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
Way laggy on my device with no FB sync. Incredible work to get it this far and I'm sure it will only get better.....alas I must go back to Blazer until more progress is made.

Thanks Scott....keep up the good work!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
kinda hard to tell after only one hour, bro! :D:D

I am sure being an ALPHA rom, battery will be horrible...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
Don't believe touch cwm will work. You need the standard cwm recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hoopsdavis:
Here's the CWM needed to install the CM9 rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
When it goes to sleep it hot reboot and

Tapatalk app is not working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] piexil:
Hey guys, I don't know if it's been posted. You can fix the screen pixalation/grain that happens in some apps, especially OI File Manager. By going into Developer settings, Checking Force 2D hardware acceleration and rebooting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
Thanks, but that was exactly what I was running before this :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
read the OP. :cool:

Installing CM9 for the first time:

- Make sure you're running a proper working CWM like the one from CM7

- Boot into Recovery

- Flash CM9 zip

- Flash Gapps

- DO A DATA WIPE / FACTORY RESET (otherwise your calendar sync will not work) DO NOT WIIPE SYSTEM or the assert script will fail

- Reboot

- Don't restore Apps using Titanium Backup!

Updating from a previous build:

- Copy CM9 ZIP to your internal SDCard

- Boot into Recovery

- Flash CM9 zip

- Flash Gapps

- Wipe cache partition

- Reboot

touch recovery will not work. if you use calks format all, it will not work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jnguyen12:
My contacts won't load after signing in. Anyone else having that problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
I had the same issue. Turns out it just took a looong time to sync
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hrffd:
Reboot and they'll come up.

This build is very nice. Getting alot of heat and some battery problems but that was expected. No 3G toggle :( and Pink LED instead of Blue??

But great job on this, keep up the amazing work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dbaybay:
There's a 3g toggle. Its called mobiledata.

Yep! As soon as I saw that I took a look but found nothing good...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ANTHONY81L:
Sounds like theres too many issues with this still .. Im gonna flash and see how it turns out .. Hopefully another update will be here very soon
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pathtologos:
Damn. I want to stay on this sooo bad but the heat issue is kinda freakin' me out. At first I thought it only happened when downloading from the market but now it happened when I was using the Yahoo Mail app. Not only is there a lot of heat, but the phone slows to a crawl. Swiping screens becomes almost impossible. Such a beautiful rom, can't wait till its a bit more stable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ANTHONY81L:
Whats a "logcat" ???? Anybody ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brennam7:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarroll825:
Hey I was wondering if someone could help me. I went through the thread and couldn't find anything. I flashed CM7 to get the correct CWM, then rebooted into recovery and flashed CM9, then Gapps, then did a data wipe, but when I reboot it brings me right back into recovery . . . Anyone have any idea how to fix this? Also so many thanks to the devs for doing this work for the good of the masses it's much appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jnguyen12:
My mms sends but download fails when receiving. My phone isn't hot at all. Let's hope it stays like that. But my phone reboots randomly.... Good job on the rom though. Its beautiful.

I ran Calkulins format all, then installed cm7/miui, then cm9, then gapps 7.1. Worked really wel. Let me know how it goes

**ALPHA**

10char
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shazbot:
Yeah.. This is why it's called "alpha" ;D Edit: ^ Ninja. :P

I think it's stable enough for day to day use now. Just don't use chrome beta or the camera. :P

Also, you can get rid of the random pixelation by enabling 2d hardware acceleration in the developer tools. Someone said it breaks Facebook, but I haven't had any problems yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:

i did notice something different. When you install an app that require SU the allow and deny are swapped. is that new to ICS?

Are you using the correct CWM?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dahlinc:
yeah i just found that out :( to bad.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
It's hard to tell. I feel like it doesn't work very well period. I've used it on OG Droid, Droid Incredible, and now on the EpTouch. The EpTouch is the only one where it would load any pages but seems it has a long way to go
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
well, its very nice and smooth, but 2 major issues for me and some others

even if not plugged in, temps are over 104 degrees

mine discharged from 99% to zero in about 2 hours

After I charge it up, I will see how it is, but can't really run it all day if its that hot, and battery drains that fast..

A Kernel tweak is probably what it needs..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
Did you calibrate, or am I wasting my time?

My temps have been fine, except for the initial boot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
calibrate what?

my temps were fine the first hour or so, but after a few reboots, and restoring my programs, it got really hot, and the battery started to fade really fast
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ANTHONY81L:
lol your talking to me like im dumb ? your saying your gonna use a rom that drains battery and overheats as your daily bro lol c'mon .. and just so its clear im extremely happy that sbrissen is working hard for all of us for FREE ... not knocking his rom or hard work at all . i just figured if 4g was working (which is almost always the last thing to work) that it would be more stable thats all .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] euphoria:
The battery. After you install a new ROM you should calibrate your battery for optimal battery life. This means charging full, wiping battery stats in CWM (or via a app), and then discharging to 0.

It has helped me in the past and am hoping it will help me now.

On another note:

What is everyone's favorite ICS launcher? Seems like it is between Trebuchet, Apex, and Nova.

it seems the netd bug is still there thought I fixed it, it cropped up after rild was fixed. netd runs at 99% cpu, heats up phone and drains battery after sitting for some time. I'll hopefully have a fix this weekend so just beware for now.
