FC18 has been the best for me too.. Was getting great battery life and I had no major bugs except for the contact one. Bout to try FD2 now.

*I'm on v1.3 and don't have notification sounds. Hope v1.4 fix that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
could this be flashed over your stock fd02? (just finished setting it up and reinstalling apps...)

(edit: aw ****, just remembered I don't have CWM.... hehe. NM.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Can anyone report if the notifications not vibrating or sounding are fixed? When I receive a new email, it's not playing a sound or vibrating even w the proper settings (this is one 1.3).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carhauler1969:
As an OTR truck driver, for me at least, each leaked release & subsequent modem derived from it has consistently resulted in better all around performance than the previous modem. Keep in mind that I am continuously on the move on a daily basis, often roaming, and I can say that without a doubt the radio package (modem) on this phone has far surpassed the great radios on my EVO 4G. And yes I'm running both phones side by side, and the e4gt always has more bars & better service in more places, gps locks faster, etc, etc. Just my experience with the Epic 4G Touch and the modem/radios on the road.

Is there a special upgrade download?

Or do I download the full and it automatically upgrades.

Coming from 1.3a
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gti151:
Dammit Calk! I JUST decided to go ahead and flash the ICS4ICS theme yesterday and am loving it. Now you had to go and drop a new ROM! At any rate, Calk or anyone else know what, if anything, i'll be losing/breaking if I use the FC24 based theme on the new FD02 ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toleraen:
No upgrade, the install will update what's necessary.

Also, nandroiding :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Mentalist:
Just flashed 1.4. Hopefully my battery life improves.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] uofajac:
Are any of these ICS Roms stable yet?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
......About as stable as your average windows install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toleraen:
Depends on your definition of stable, and the features you consider critical. The last few releases have easily been daily drivers for me. I've had no hiccups, but everyone uses their phone differently.

In any case, just nandroid your current setup and give it a whirl, you can always go back...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] linuxpir8:
pretty stable for me. been very stable the last few leaks, but its been stable with a few fc and weird quirks since first leaks. everything that i rely to be working, has.

Check the ICS-4-ICS theme thread, I believe people have flashed it with FD02 and had no issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
It's not about having issues or not.

Any theme includes framework-res.apk and twframework-res.apk and by flashing theme from another build you replacing those app from current build.

Let assume there are some bug fixes have been made and those fixes where done in framework-res.apk. By flashing theme from previous build you'll keep the bug even thou it has been fixed in current build.

Or there may be some new options added to the build. You won't have them either.

In general you should try to flash a theme that is based on files and framework of build you currently running or at least you should compare all files from theme with your current files to see if there are any changes in binaries and codes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gti151:
That's exactly why I was asking. I wasn't sure if Calk might chime in on this one.

I'm probably just going to wait it out. It looks like the guys responsible for ICS4ICS *might* have it updated as soon as tonight.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Compusmurf:
So far, so good on 1.4/FD02.

Either I'm getting used to it, or the scrolling speed issue got a bit better?!?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Drybonz:
I have tried most of them... battery life was the big issue, but it seemed pretty good on FC24. However there were issues with wifi disconnects, and, more importantly, loss of all notification sounds, which was a deal breaker for me, personally.

I haven't tried the brand new build yet, but bottom line is that it is getting real close to being real solid, IMO.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
agat63 is correct, it's not about it working, it's about overwriting any changes/fixes Samsung did in this build. Now to be honest, the framework res files haven't really changed in the last couple of builds, with the exception of they tweaked the mid auto brightness range in FD02, it's the system app apks that are being worked on and will be overwritten flashing most themes that theme the dialer, status bar, etc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m_reyna_16:
calk, or anyone else, i use juicedefender, does this really help on my battery life or is it not needed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
For one, on FD2 I started to roam whereas on FC18 I am always with 2-3 bars with no roam (This is at work for 9 hours). Better latency, consistency for sure, and calls about the same. I've been on FC18 for 2-1/2 now, and data has always been responsive when browsing etc. On FD02 on numerous times it would just hang...especially on 4G..(hope I made some sense..)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anon9mouz:
Could someone pull that 5 row modified launcher for me?its touch wiz right with just the icon for the app drawer changed right? Thanks :D

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NoSpamDan:
I use it too, and I have tried disabling it to test. I did find that when it is disabled, the battery life is somewhat worse. But with it enabled, sometimes there is an extended delay between waking the phone up and establishing connectivity.

I, too, am interested in Calk's take on JuiceDefender...:confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m_reyna_16:
thats exactly why i was asking! i love the batterylife it gives me but it sometimes does not wake up the phone! anybody else can elaborate or give ideas on this?

Has the notifications bug been fixed in Fd02?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Its not a bug, that's just how it is now in ics. Google and Facebook have some bad blood right now which is why of doesn't work. Try haxsync from the market other free alternatives.

Edit: Does anyone have a .zip for the included kernel? I want to flash a theme but not in the included rogue recovery. I was going to Odin the stock el26 and then after done flashing theme reflash the kernel included in the rom. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tramane:
It seems like ICS4ICS v1.9 themed things nicely added ics mms but it broke my camera.

Anyone else confirm this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gti151:
I ended up with 2 cameras once I installed the theme. If you use the one without the themed icon it works but the newer icon one seems to not work.

Very excited. Flashing 1.4 now.

Thx Calky!

I hope this is the case, but on previous versions I lost mine after they worked for a couple days.

I just completely cleared my phone and flashed with 1.4 and I'm still having the issue. I received a notification sound on my first text message but anything after that is not making the notification sound.

Anyone else?

everything works great
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wiskid15:
I've made several calls and received some.. Been texting back and forth with my bro, and I've been getting sounds. Perhaps its a fluke... Perhaps flashing directly over 1.3a is the key... Idk.

I tried the newest edition of this ROM. No luck with the 4G still. I even called sprint and the trip was shockingly cool. I was honest about my phone being rooted...the whole issue only happens on ICS ROMs. He tried to help me with some ## codes and even asked if I was using clockwork or amon ra recovery on my phone. In the end I still can't go past gingerbread.

I just thought of a variable that may be significant...or not, could it be that my zip files are on a 64GB sdxc card. Well, I am gonna try flashing it from internal memory.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
Good thing I looked back at your reply. I was about to tell him to hold them down longer, lol.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PaulB007:
I have to say this FD02 build really turned out nice.. Samsung did a nice job fixing the lag issues I had, especially with the on screen buttons on the bottom of the phone. This can finally be a daily driver for me, it runs way way better the CM9 from a performance perspective.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
If you are still on Gingerbread, get your GPS lock, keep GPS on, boot to recovery and flash format all zip then the ROM. There are no guarantees but I talked 8 people through going back to Gingerbread then doing this and it worked for all of them.

Hey, I got the signature error too but it still flashed it and when I rebooted all my changes were there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
99 out of 100 people can tell you yes and it may not work for you. If you want a guarantee, wait for the official release. It only takes 10 minutes to Odin back to stock, Odin flash a kernel and restore a nandroid
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
yes. it works. but depends.

i flashed this after fb21 (which i did NOT have working gps), so it actually did NOT lock at first. i nandroid, flashed GB rom, got lock, restored nandroid. and it works. fast.

if gps IS working on your current rom, get a good solid lock, then flash this and it should work right off the bat. locks fast too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dtm_stretch:
This is what worked for me and I couldn't get a lock until I did this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] svtisland:
I am little lost here. Please shed me a light. How do you nandroid Calkulin's FB27 ROM while there is no CWM yet. I do have GPS lock problem and trying to follow your recommendation:

1. nandroid current setup

2. Odin back to GB rom to get GPS lock

3. Restore Calkulin's FB27 Rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
ok so you are currently on fb27 right?

use rom manager and install recovery for sgsii (NOT TOUCH). then click reboot into recovery. this is a hack to get temporary recovery. this will allow you to nandroid and flash GB rom.

flash GB rom, get GPS lock (do it a few times).

reboot into recovery and nandroid back to fb27.

people seem wary using rom manager last few days but i have done this like maybe 15-20 times since being on fb9.. just choose recovery for SGSII not the one that says touch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] svtisland:
I see. I was going to use Rom Manager but then I was not 100% sure if it's safte to install recovery through Rom Manager. I'll try your recommendation and will report the result.

Thanks a bunch!!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Yes. Don't use Rom manager on this phone to install CWM. The recovery it installs is only temporary and it will revert back to stock recovery as you found out. If you use that recovery it's a great way to brick your phone.The guy who recommended using it a few posts back needs to do a little research because he has no clue.

O wow hmm well i been doing it that way I flashed recovery with it using epic 4g touch and used it to boot to regular cwm and i flashed ics that way and I used it to flash an ics rom over another with rom manager. Bc i did try quick boot but when I used that it took me into rouge recovery so I just rebooted back and used rom manager to get me to recovery and cwm shows up every time so idk bro I'm sorrie its not working. I try to minimize as much as possible and the who flashing el26 to flash things I just bypassed it so it's up to or whatever works :D

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I tried to make a flashable zip with the recovery in the Rom with 7zip but did something wrong and it didn't work. Instead I used mobile Odin to flash the most recent kernel tar which is FC22. Boot into that recovery and flash the theme. Then flash the stock kernel zip in the OP. You won't have USB mass storage by default any longer, but that's easily solved by installing USB Switcher from the market. I've been doing this on several builds and you can swap kernels right from your phone in a minute or two. Easy peezy. My buddy jt_hatch made this flashable FC24 with 7zip. I doubt if he would mind me sharing. I'm running it now on FD02 with no issues. I flashed this zip by booting to recovery after I installed the FC22 kernel tar with mobile Odin. I've flashed a lot of files with this kernel and had no problems.
