Its a file in his 2.9.2 original post. K think post two. Download and flash

Epic 4G Touch perfected by Calk!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] algirnavi451:
Check in his GB roms second post. I believe he answers that question
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Lol...just those 2 but, in a way, development is going hand in hand. I see where development is on ROMs like CM9 and the Nexus was there not too long ago. That's why I feel things are really about to start picking up.

Side note...this must be some of the best idle battery drain on wifi I have seen. Tomorrow I am going to see how it does using 3g all day
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Wow, how did you get such amazing battery life??!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drdrewdown:
it's his backup phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Lol...wifi. If on 3g, things aren't near as good. Until recently there hasn't been much to test on this phone vs. the 4 or 5 new ROMs a day on Nexus so my setup remained basically the same. If I was on 3g or 4g all day, I wouldn't expect to see numbers anywhere close to these
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
I do the same but my battery drain sucks, but I'm still on FB21....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] droidiac13:
Hows the heat? Mine was smoking hot yesterday, but that was probably caused from staring at ICS on my E4GT! Reverted back tho because of it.

Anyone know how to fix this issue with the stock gallery and stock camera app going nuts and making a thumbnail cache over 1.5 GBs? The thumbnails are larger than the photos...the photos are less than 1 MB

New tether app didn't work. Got another random reboot. Seems to only happen when 4g is on during the tether
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rattor:
Is there anything special I have to do if I'm coming from a stock rooted EG30 + CWM rom? Or can I just flash the wipe all script via CWM and then flash the zip file from the OP?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] likeurface:
When i flashed this i flashed the EL26 kernel+CWM first. Then used that recovery to flash the rom. I think it is safer to flash on a GB kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aburns7487:
Does the file gps.supersonic.so that we need to use ES file Explorer (or another kind), fix the GPS on E4GT?

So fix permissions and replace /sys/lib ?

I just want to make sure this is correct and that it works?

thanks

Battery sucks calk on this ROM..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
We appreciate the feedback. Did you need help finding out why because I don't think that is the norm?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kazp3r17:
Im a heavy user and still squeeze out about 7 hours or so...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] glass330:
On stock roms i get nearly double the battery. Android OS is sucking up all my juice. 1.5 and 1.6 were the worst releases yet for me and a coworker..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tragicallyhip:
In short, you're doing it wrong!

I had something similar happen when I first went to the 1.4 ROM. ODINed my phone to stock ICS, and did a fresh root & flash to 1.4. Battery life went form 7-8 hours to 26-7! Good luck!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Which stock ROM? I have to ask because I don't know if you're referring to stock GB or ICS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jbp21:
Couple Questions..

Fantastic ROM Calkulin.. Loving 1.6 with great battery life.

Two questions..

1) I can't seem to adjust the Screen Timeout to anything greater than 15s-- the setting doesn't stick. Is there somewhere this is overrided?

2) Is there any way to get audio notifications to come through the headphones/line out instead of on the phone? If a notification comes through when headphones connected; the audio/podcast will pause, the phone will make the notification through its speaker; and then the original audio will restart through the headphones..

Thanks for everyones efforts; loving ICS.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] feyrune:
ok, I've been trying to read up on all the latest from sfhub agat63 and the rest of the awesome devs out there to prevent bricking my phone.

I'm currently running calk's 3.0 GB ROM and im planning to take the dive to ICS. I'm hoping I have these steps in the right order to do this correctly, but I'd like some verification before I do so. I've compiled this list from reading through a few great threads.

I plan to start with the directbootCWM utility (from the CM teams tools) and mobile Odin that and reboot into it's recovery and install the multiboot temp el29 ROM. Boot into the temp ROM, download GPS status, get a GPS lock and reboot (or is the GPS issue only on CM9?). That should bring me back to CWM automatically.

Then I flash the following:

Calk's format all zip

Calk's 1.6 ROM

Calk's bare converter

Agat63's FE22 repack kernel with his recovery

Kobridge's calk-specific 3.3 tweak (M or A maybe)

Then reboot and enjoy ICS with all the battery saving I can handle.

Please tell me if I have this in the right order or am missing steps or doing something unsafe. I really don't want to brick my lovely E4GT and go back to my old Hero200.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wiseguyy:
Ive seen this on multiple ICS roms, seems to be inherent on ICS.

---------- Post added at 03:26 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:20 PM ----------

I would start with calk's rom and not run the tweaks just yet. This will help establish a base model for your everyday performance without any modification of the stock product. After you have a good sense of what the stock rom gives you tweak away and monitor performance changes for the best possible changes and enhancements. Because our phones are like woman and they are all different your results will vary.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Brother, that last part is so true! ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rigel1326:
Is anyone else having wifi disconnect? Being in your wifi area and losing connection? I reflashed the fe22 modem and still getting booted. If I flip wifi off/on it locks right on. Think I am going to try fe21 modem and see if that changes things.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Same problem here. Had it on stock rooted FE22 too. I don't think it's the modem

Hey what happened to ics themes for the touchwiz roms. I think it was called ics for ics or is there a new name for it I may have missed it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:
I have narrowed down the random restart on my phone a bit more. it only happens when 4g is on and is more or less accelerated when using the tether app. could it be overheating or thinking it is and restart to prevent damage?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
It's in the themes and apps forum
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] quocamole:
i noticed that cpu pegs at max when using the native hotspot too. foxfi and wifi tether doesn't do this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] A1Lonestar:
Same here. I ran 4g all day with no reboots. But when I ran 4g with hotspot it would reboot everytime.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] afinch1992:
Glad to know I'm not the only one. Ill give another app a go, but wifi tether for root restarts the phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scar107:
Can anyone tell me what I'm doing wrong? I mobile Odin el26 kernel, run the format all zip, install v1.6. upon reboot it hangs up on the boot animation for 10 minutes plus, V1.4 works perfectly. Why can't I get 1.6 to install?

Every time I start Hotspot it turns itself off. Then the phone also was pretty hot like it was working, but nothing could connect. Not using 4G.

Other than that, ROM seems just a great as previous versions.

Battery drain issue with kobridge?

Anyone else experience this? I unplugged my phone and didn't even touch it. After 40 minutes, it dropped 7%. Under the battery settings, "android OS" is the main culprit and the stay awake time was approx 11 mins. What should I try to change to decrease the awake time to hopefully increase the battery life?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] whoisjlk:
Battery Drain Issues?

If you are having battery issues, try Badass Battery app from the Play store. This app gives you vital info on what processes are using your battery.

I was able to recognize which apps were draining the most battery and make adjustments within those applications or simply uninstall and use another method.

Being able to view what was using GPS and how much, how many times my phone was being woke up and by which apps, my network data being used by which apps, etc... all helped my battery life by making adjustments.

I know battery is always gonna be an issue but making adjustments is half the battle.

Good luck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gti151:
I use that app but the biggest offender is always 'Kernel' which doesn't really mean anything to me...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yahknow1:
Long-long story I'll abridge.. I was on version Caulk's 1.4 and 1.5 with great results. Then going to 1.6 I had no Wi-Fi, it was to the point I actually odin’d back to EL29. But then panic set in because I still had no Wi-Fi? I tried this and that I posted in the Q&A section and received some terrific help but none fixed my problem, I was to the point where I actually thought I had damaged the hardware on the phone! I even unrooted and took the phone to the Sprint store, but the rep had it connected in a matter of seconds! Embarrassed, I came back to my house and reset my router that was the only thing I hadn’t tried with all the other troubleshooting I had done I had overlooked that simple step, could have saved myself a whole bunch of time had I just done that!! So, I thought I’d suggest this to anyone as something to try?

I will tell you that with this clean install of Caulk’s E4GT 2 v1.6 I’ve never had better battery life and the phone runs fast as I’ve seen with any ICS ROM!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jinwu57:
Using badass now.... Yup kernel is the biggest offender. :(

Lost CWM after running "FORMAT ALL"

Crap. I'm a moron. I ran the FORMAT ALL.zip. Then, forgetting to install the the 1.6 zip, I accidentally chose "Reboot."

Dumb, dumb, dumb.

Now the phone either 1. Can enter Odin mode (NOT Rogue)

or 2. Sits on the E4GT screen for about 5 seconds, then reboots.

Can anyone point me in the right direction for how to fix this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] the rhyno:
You can ODIN back to your recovery at least...given you are by a PC, with a USB cable and have the .tar on your PC...if yes to all those then your in business.

by recovery i mean kernel which contains recovery. do you have a stock el26.tar?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shawnwaugh:
Thanks for the rescue! I'm downloading one from http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1416477&highlight=el26+tar . It took me a few minutes to think through this and think "Oh, if I'm in ODIN, I must need a .tar!" And then I stumbled on a few ICS CWM kernels which, thankfully warned to stick with EL 26 for stable recovery. And that's the direction I'm in now.

Again, THANK YOU!

---------- Post added at 09:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:55 PM ----------

(Update 1) Crap. So I downloaded the file and ran it, but it reported a FAIL. I treid downloading ODIN 1.83 and the stock recovery EL26 here (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1605355), but I still get a FAIL. "<ID:0/004> SetupConnection..

<ID:0/004> Can't open the serial(COM) port."

(Update 2): Turns out that if KIES is open, it interferes w/ ODIN. Tried using the stock EL26 rom (the second link), but that froze the phone. Now trying the first one which seems to be taking some time to download to the phone - all a good sign. Fingers crossed.

Just in case and since I won't have time to post these until much later, here are the Stock FE22 deodexed Gmail & Market apps in flashable form.

Gotcha, well newer isn't always better I say. I'm still on EL29 modem cause the ICS modems don't do anything different for me anyway. :rolleyes:

He may find that an older app may work better for him. If something isn't working in a current build, I try an older build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MeWarning:
I wasn't even thinking about what versions they were. I was bored at work when I saw what zedmay needed and downloaded the zip from Cyanogen. Those guys really need to keep their stuff more up to date. :rolleyes:

The Market would of been automatically updated to the Play Store the first time it was opened anyways. And I'm not sure since I haven't needed to get it this way but I think you can get Gmail from the Play Store now. Out of curiosity anyone know if you can?

Battery life issues

To all the users having issues with battery life:

Assuming you've already done due diligence and have let the rom settle in and disabled any unnecessary synching (IE Facebook sucker app, Google etc). Please take the opportunity to check out Kobridge's tweak pack here:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1668853

There is a link on the OP for V3.3. The v3.4 he has posted is designed for a newer kernel than we are using with this ROM. Right now, he has a specific v3.3 download for this ROM.

FYI, he does update frequently so hopefully this post won't be outdated as soon as I send it ;). Also, if you download this tweak pack, the file is zipped.

You MUST unzip the downloaded file first. The flashable zips are contained inside the download (a zip inside a zip). Good luck and please thank the developer if this works for you!

---------- Post added at 01:00 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:57 PM ----------

Yes, the Market will update to Play Store and also Gmail can be removed and downloaded from the store as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
For some reason this ROM keeps switching on auto brightness randomly. Time to start fresh again.

Yeah I said it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Guys thanks for the link for Gmail and Market. I seem to have lost Calk's themed icons in the notification bar. Any way to keep the stock content but Calk's themes?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I'm not sure what you mean Zed, aren't you running this rom? You can always flash the rom back over itself. Of course, if you're still having issues a full wipe and reinstall is the way to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
For anyone struggling with GPS, do this. It worked for me. A more detailed explanation:

Download file

Open ES File Explorer

Under settings make sure Root Explorer and Mount File System are checked

Find the download, hold on it, and move to /system /lib /hw.

Hold on the file again once in the new folder and scroll down to properties

Change the permissions to:

User: All three columns checked

Group: Read Only

Other: Read Only

Click Ok and boom you should have GPS. Mine isnt locking but it is working.

I can't believe how good the battery life on this ROM is. Calk is the man, as always.

Lol, yeah you only want to flash one of them. Whatever was the last one you did is what's active right now. There's four different ones in that first zip cause you're supposed to pick which one based on how aggressive of battery tweaks you want. There's the Super Fast(SF), Fast(F), Moderate(M), and Aggressive(A). You didn't hurt anything though so don't worry. Like I said the last one you flashed is what's active right now.
