Unfortunately switching launchers doesn't completely rid yourself of interacting with TouchWiz apps. Pull the Google gallery out of the latest gapps package and push it to system/app. Then use the new gallery to set your wallpaper. Should help a little. I use the TouchWiz launcher when I'm on TouchWiz and Nova when I'm on AOSP. On AOSP I have scrolling wallpaper and on TouchWiz I don't. Not sure if using the Google gallery will give you scrolling in the stock ICS launcher but it should at least give you the proper sizing so it looks right.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Right, which leaves me to believe its been somehow disabled BUT the ics launcher is still scaling images as if it were scrolling (which explains the enlarged images)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
What if we take TwLauncher from a version when scrolling did work and push it to our phones on FD26
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nitronet:
OMG if I can't have scrolling wallpaper I will kill myself!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elprincipejay:
Seriously ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
I think he's being sarcastic. Everyone is making wallpaper scrolling out to be such a huge deal when it's really not...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthejoker20:
YAY! Science has proven it is the worst cell phone service of all!!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
So no rdf today, then? Blah...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DirkBelig:
Speak for yourself. I have several LWPs that are broken because of the removal of scrolling. 3D objects that change orientation (e.g. NFL Teams, Captain America, Jump Gate) are stuck in place; wallpapers that react to swipes (e.g. Asteroid Belt asteroids reversing, Prismatic patterns rotating) are crippled. Whether a static picture doesn't move slightly from side-to-side is a minor annoyance. When LWPs with specific interactivity are broken, then it's a big effing deal!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] winfan:
Think positive thoughts... No rdf today, closer to an OTA. Although the rdf could be released tomorrow as well. Sometimes there is a 24 hour lag.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
And sometimes the rdf comes a day early.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nitronet:
No not seriously, I will just sick of these idiots rambling on about stupid scrolling wallpaper - WHO CARES!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Thank you very much sir.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
Just like the guy said above this broken scrolling has a major effect. I have purchased several live wallpapers that move and change the veiw as you scroll. So now they don't move. Also interaction is broken as well. So both of you can go f yourselves because I have 20 bucks of worthless live wallpapers so if I and others want to come on here and ***** about it then you can leave as this is not cool at all!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nobrakes:
No one is forced to go to ICS. If everything works on gingerbread, why go to ICS when everything is not working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
Because then my phone will constantly bug me about the upgrade when it rolls out. So a person who isn't one here and doesn't have a clue about their phone will have broken live wallpapers if they don't fix this. So I'm not here just for me I'm here about others who use their phones just like the day they bought them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I know this doesn't fix the issues. But if you write out a real nice email to the developers of the wallpapers and explain the situation. They may give you a partial refund. I suggest this as I don't see this ever being "fixed" on Samsung end. Just an idea
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
How did you cope on EL29? Wallpapers don't scroll on there either.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fatboypup:
Mine do
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Not on TwLauncher..

Maybe some 3rd party launchers will update to fix it or something. Could be an Android 4.0.3 thing because 4.0.4 scrolling wallpapers work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brandon711:
Hands down best ROM Kernal Fd26 and modem fd26 I'm on my phone heavy everyday I'm running cyanogenmod 9 ics and I've been listening to music off my player all day and have been surfing the web on and of prolly about 3 to five hrs of internet time and these are my screen shots from today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
That's nuts...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rinzler:
My phone signal reliability has devolved to the point of no use with FD26. Im coming from FC22 which was fine but FD26 is just terrible.

The signal bars go wildly from full to LOS...then back to full...then somewhere in the middle then back to LOS....and then starts all over.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] linuxpir8:
weird, it has been very stable for me in a -91 to -100 1 to 2 asu area.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abusedcloth:
+1

Running the "Blend 3.0" and they work just fine.... Great ROM.

I can't believe we argue over a build (ICS) that isn't even finished yet......

I kinda wish it was never introduced until an actual system upgrade, that way at least we would have some GB ROMs to play with and some ported ones as well I might add. I had an OG Evo and couldn't keep up with all the GB ROM's. Loved it. Thats the only thing I hate about this phone, production stopped because some half assed versions of ICS were released.

But whatever still much love to the devs that put in the hard work. And big thanks to sfhub and calk!!!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] erasable:
Just as I was reading this post, I went from four bars to nothing to full bars roaming and back. But I think its wifikill not playing nice with ics.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wizard Knight:
If you're on el29 and your wallpapers scroll, thank Calk. He modded it to do so. It was taken out of official. And to the guy who said his aren't scrolling on newest leak using the built in stock ics launcher... It's because samsung had to remove it fully from their devices. Only option is to mod the rom which I don't see happening until we get official or go with a launcher from the market that utilizes its own scrolling method (some just piggy back on the stock launchers ability, which we've already established is not broken, but removed as per the patent infringement suits with apple). The ability wasn't just removed from touchwiz, but from the underlying android framework as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Imaginos:
OMG! My scrolling wallpaper device is broken. Now it's nothing more than a phone or something. :(

Kind of regretting holding off so long on trying FD26 (I'm still on FD24) in the hope that the next leak was imminent. Oops. Not unhappy with the build, but lookin forward to the next.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rinzler:
I thought it was just me...but there's a thread with folks getting LOS as well. It doesn't last but a few seconds, but the wild signal bars thing interferes with calls & texts.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dennis_H2:
Im on complete stock el29, no root or anything. I've been having connection issues over the last day or so also, so maybe it's a Sprint thing...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] winfan:
Any new rdf's so far?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
After a few days and some slimming down I'm getting excellent battery life on FD26 with normal use

I switched to the vanilla ICS launcher then got rid of the following apk and its doing much better. I still use the sdx stock app removal tool and it works fine on ics

digitalclock

mediahub

samsungwidget_news

samsungwidget_programmonitor

samsungwidget_stockclock

samsungwidget_weatherclock

socialhub

socialhubwidget

I am using beautiful widgets for my homescreen clock and weather but for those not using weather you can kill the accuweather apk too

Also removed Sprint radio, nova and a few other worthless stock apps. Kept Sprint TV and ID though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] youngprince:
It's very possible. They are upgrading to network vision in a lot of places, and from what I hear, it is a pretty painful process.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I have been reading that it is due to Sprint integrating LTE into the network.. even if it isn't effecting the immediate area you are in
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
EXACTLY how I set mine up but I also delete ID. If you are a social networking person switch to inverted versions and you should be good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
I think most or all of this is already done in this ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Most are but sometimes not the clock and weather and if someone is using say sfhub's version, this will come in handy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Yeah I guess ID isnt really necessary either just killed it too. I got rid of facebook and twitter a long time ago, but I also recently learned about the inverted setting in browser under accessibility settings.

What rom? I'm talking about fine tuning the from the ICS rooted leak. Some of that stuff was still running in the background even though it wasn't being used.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rrmzr1:
I care. Not having scrolling wallpapers sucks. But fd26 is way to stable to leave over it. Even my battery life is great.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rinzler:
This "now" network is freaking awesome. smfh.

I am a pubic hair away from uploading a verizon prl so i can get booted and not have to pay the etf. Verizon is looking realllllllly good right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
So, anyone think FD26 is the final? I still don't see a rdf and it doesn't seem like there are any bugs.

Thanks for explaining the wallpaper zoom btw.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
I hope not, I still have the 10 minute snooze bug!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
In 5 minute snooze it works just fine with the side buttons but if you swipe across the screen it cancels the snooze. Is that what you mean, or does it not snooze at all for 10 minute?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
I sure hope it is. I haven't tried the actual rom itself but the modem and kernel work good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] winfan:
I hope so too. Is there a ota zip file for this one to install? If possible im sure we would all appreciate it. Tomorrow we may know for sure since it will be a week since the release of fd26.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tmeader:
The bottom line for anyone who's having issues with the wallpaper scrolling (even though their launchers claim they support it) needs to contact the devs for the launchers they're using. I contacted the Nova dev yesterday and got a VERY quick response. If you want to see this worked around via the launchers (it's def doable, at least for static wallpapers, since Go Launcher works), PLEASE contact them and let them know. Here was his quick reply:

"Interesting. Do you have a link to a discussion about this? My wife's international I9100 SGS2 running official ICS does scroll wallpapers, but I guess it's something they're changing for the US or Sprint. I don't have an Epic 4G Touch myself to test against.

I'm guessing Go doesn't scroll live wallpapers, only static ones? I haven't investigated but I believe they're not really using the system wallpaper but instead pull the wallpaper into their own memory and scroll that, however Android doesn't allow this for live wallpapers. The normal advantage of this is that their scroll effects include the wallpaper. But it seems a hidden advantage is that it works around Samsung's weirdness. I can't say yet whether I'll include this in Nova or not. I do like the idea of the scroll effects being able to include the wallpaper and if Samsung really ships without scrolling it'd be nice to offer it back. Disadvantage is more memory usage and more code complexity."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
I Think a FC02 is coming because FC01 nothing found but FC02 says samsung at top just no info.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tmeader:
The new ones would be FE02, not FC.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arehm:
C would be March if I'm not mistaken. We'd be looking for a FE02 today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
C was march. May is E And FE01/02 show nothing. The FE01 that should have come did not get released from the ODM to Sprint for testing. The next release may be FE09 and may be the last build we get as it may be the OTA final.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manup456:
Your correct that was a party foul on my end haha...my B
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
I doubt it. There are still many small visual issues.

That scrolling, I can't imagine it will stay that way. Because of it scrolling through any long list is a pain. It scrolls in chunks.

The task switcher UI went back to the way its been in other builds and just doesn't look finished.

The opening animations are accelerated as well, it seems. To see what I mean open settings and then back out. The animations run at different speeds.

And man I wish they would fix the notification icons.

My hope is that first priority was functionality and now they will pound out the UI bugs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
It will work the first day you set the alarm, using the screen or buttons. After that, the 10 min snooze will not work, pushing the button or swiping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xcomputerman:
I hope not. Bluetooth is hopelessly broken for me. Was working great on Gingerbread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
I haven't reinstalled GO after FD26, so I can't immediately verify, but I'm pretty sure it was scrolling live wallpaper for me on FD24. I was using some My Beach thing that I think worked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flamand:
I'm on Blazer+rogue right now and am considering jumping to FD26. Am I correct the remaining issues are possibly wifi/BT and some visual stuff like scrolling wallpaper? Anything else functionality-wise?

For those of you already on the ICS treadmill (as am I on other devices), it makes sense to stay. What about someone still on GB and with the official update nearer rather than farther? What do you think?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yokken:
Stay on Blazer, it's fast and stable. Wait until all the bugs get ironed out in ICS. I've used multiple builds of AOKP and the leaked Fx## builds and I always end up going back to GB after a day, whether it be due to a small but annoying bug or GPS not working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
I'm using FD26, and haven't seen any noticeable bugs plus GPS responds (by my non-scientific eyeball) about 3 times faster to locks than EL29. Battery life might not be as good, I'm not sure because I haven't re-activated all my droidwall policies, but it's close. In any event, I don't thing it's as bad as you lead on. Nova is smooth as butter, and the improvements in the ICS versions of gmail, maps and talk make it quite alluring.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Oh thats crazy I turn my alarm clock off in morning then on again every night so that never happened to me.

Just flash it and try it and if you don't like go back to whatever you are using. Unless your phone has a super complicated setup it takes about 20-30 minutes to manually restore everything after a flash.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
I have no idea how or where but Calkulin found FB15. Expect a release tomorrow. It is suppose to be pretty stable.

I will be the first to admit I was a tiny bit skeptical of sextape. But, he came through.

This week has been a great team effort. It is like an Occupy Xda group now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Closet Sprint and Samsung employees who have access to the files use xda and few are pretty active. They don't advertise who they are for obvious reasons.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
Wow!..... Just wow! And I know what you mean. I haven't been on xda this much before
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Has he leaked it to anyone yet?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidc23:
I think he said tomorrow, he is probably still at the party.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stang04:
same skeptical here. i thought sextape was playing since he got me rickrolling...

i think calk is been getting FB15 ready since he has not been very active lately , he even said next update was v2.9 but never got it , maybe in that time he got FB15? i am sure it will be good since most roms he drops are always good and stable ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Poor calk, he is going to wake up tomorrow only to find out nobody wants his fb15 lil. Fb17 is being leaked by ace tomorrow.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
Only to be diminished by FB2# the next day. I just hope it keeps coming.

I am gonna need methadone to wing me off the constant leaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
Well, it has been updated. The new gold standard is FB21.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
Has it been leaked or is it just what upcoming?

Edit: nvrmind. Didn't read ahead. Can't wait till its official. If we flash these in Odin, would we still be able to receive the OTA?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rgregg504:
Rdf is just proof of a new build but maybe we'll get lucky with another leak
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PinnerProxy:
Any possible chance... you get the leak? (;
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
Fb21 isnt that much of a step up IMO its decent though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rgregg504:
Hmm how would you know that...hint hint

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
I concur
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
I've tried out more than a few ICS ROMs (including the stock-rooted good stuff) and haven't encountered any real issues. I've gone back to EL29 a few times but always got lured back to ICS. The most current custom ROMs I've run (and would recommend highly) are Calkulin's, Venum's Anakonda and Ice, the Nocturnal Venum collaboration and now on Blue Kuban.

Now, to be fair, I don't give a hoot about wallpaper scrolling so to me that is a non-issue, I've never had gps issues (knock on wood) and don't live in a 4G area so none of those *bugs* are a concern for me.

I think people are setting expectations too high in assuming the official ICS is going to be bug-free and super smooth from the get go. Personally I find that highly unlikely and am only stoked for the official release because it means my favorite Devs will then have source to fine tune their already amazing ROMs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
This. I find it kind of amusing that everyone thinks that Gingerbread is perfect and that the ICS leaks have all these issues. ICS on E4GT is release ready, little niggles and all. Look at the MAJOR bug this phone was released with (LOS)! I am hoping FD26 is it so we can get source!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] winfan:
Still no rdfs so its been a week now without an rdf. What does everyone think? Did sprint accept this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bondosho:
I think so. I'm on FD24, and have zero issues. What was changed in FD26? I'm going to stay here till final comes out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] erasable:
I don't think fd26 is the one. My social hub widget doesn't work, sometimes my 4G and wifi get stuck on at the same time, or at least both icons are on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] winfan:
Changes were bug fixes to combined view in email and one other change. But can't think of it right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
none of my apps transition anymore. If I have the browser open and it is pulling down a site and I loose 4G it will just stop and sit there. Even if I hit stop it never stops I have to kill the browser and then start over. Wont work even if I go back into 4G range. All the apps do that now.

The other is the crazy battery drain on 26. When I use the screen the battery drains slower then when it is off. So I can use the phone screen on none stop for 30 min and only loose 6 percent or so, but 30min of not touching I loose 10%. And this is with no apps loaded. I'm in the process of redoing my entire phone right now all the way back to stock EL29 odin then head to FD24 AOSPlike and see if the contacts crash. If they do then back to odin el29 and then to another rom.

As I said earlier I have been told that FE09 will be the last build, but was also told we should see and FE01 and that didn't happen. But if nothing hits tomorrow then I'm sure it'll be FD09. We shall see.

Battery Life on FD26

Anybody having this issue. i have done this the last 3 nights. I have put my phone on airplane mode with at least 70% battery life. I do not plug it in to charge. When I wake up in the morning the the phone is dead. I am wondering if even though it is on airplane mode that it is still looking for a cell signal or something?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] winfan:
The longest we have seen between rdfs is 6 days. So bit unusual we have gone a whole week without a new rdf. And releases do come out with bugs. Remember back to the initial release. Your setup can also be an issue for some bugs not to say this is always the case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tech7:
That fd26 was buggy still and plus the ##code# still not working right i think it has to be fd 29
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] limeaid:
If you think FD24 has no issues, you must not be using your phone very much

If these last 2 releases are anywhere near the official update, I think I'll be staying on GB until the 2nd ICS update
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
You gingerbread lovers are such whiners. :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] naripsta:
Lol really.

It's almost like making a new thread to tell everyone you're selling your E4GT for a GNexus. No one needs to know what you want to run/use lol.

I'm still on FD24, interested in FD26.. might just do it if I'm not lazy lol. But FD24 has been fine for me so far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Exactly, I would be really impressed if somebody rolls back to cupcake just to do it otherwise I don't really care.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
For me GB is just so much more stable and the battery lasts much longer. I am struggling to see what ICS gives me to make the scrolling.rigidness and decreased battery life worth it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] limeaid:
What exactly is everyone's problem with ppl saying that ICS as it currently stands on this phone is NOT ready for prime time. You act like someone is telling you your mom is fat.

You know what your responses remind me of? The people that cry whenever someone says something good about any phone other than the E4GT.

"what? The new evo has a better screen? F u! Waaaaaaaah. My E4gt is the best. And it's my gf too"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
This thread as you could prob tell from the title is for people that are excited about ICS and are excited to use and to discuss it. someone should just make a why GB is better then ICS and why i am not swiching thread and post in there. would stop all of this back and forth.
