To be fair, our devs haven't fixed much if anything at all and have merely hacked a few cosmetic changes.

All the heavy lifting have been done by the Samsung/Sprint team working with the source. To be fair, without the source and full hardware documentation, XDA devs can't do much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Saito2185:
Just flashed this last night and charged overnight, so far I've noticed my D/l and U/l speeds have gotten way better then EL29. run a couple of speed tests and here's my average

FB05 d/l .85mbs ulp .25mbs

EL29 d/l .52mbs u/l .17mbs
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
If our devs can do this much without source can you imagine what they can do with source available?

is there any advantage of flashing modem via Odin instead of recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bavarianblessed:
I have yet to find an issue with this leak. It's perfectly stable in everything I do. Even some of the bugs reported by others have not happened to me. Wondering how many actually do a full wipe before installation. Either way this is my new daily driver.

The only bug I have run across is selecting the graph at the top of the battery stats page. Some dont have that, I only use it for posting screenshots so its really minor to me. I can tell by my battery if my phone is waking up and draining
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bravo1565:
How is battery on this rom mine hasn't been so well
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
That depends entirely on how you set it up...plus its only been out for half of a day. Its way too soon to give battery feedback info. If it doesnt seem as good its probably the Sprint bloat
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rob4828:
Battery could be better but this is expected from leaks like this
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bravo1565:
true but hopefully in time calk could work his magic and add a battery script into this rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
With setCPU going I'm at around 71% so far today and I flashed it 10 minutes after calk released the leak. Pretty good for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
Issues I am seeing.

Stuttering everywhere. Using both touchwiz and default homescreens swipping stutters especially with a complex background.

stuttering in the menus. in settings swipping up and down causes crazy stuttering/supper fast scrolling. In the app draw there is a stutter before the next page comes up.

Typing is slow and none responsive sometimes.

gallery still broken for selecting personal pictures for background. Always skinny and then it is blown up and scrolling in launcher.... very odd and crappy.

reboot causes several things to break in settings and applications FC. Another reboot fixes them, but other issues appear.

I'm going to try the deodex version now. see if that is any better. And I am seeing it here on calks and the other thread that has stock rooted.

Sliders in Contacts are finally dialed in, no GPS issues here, everything working really well except the tiny hiccup I mentioned earlier. Even my 3rd party keyboard feels much more responsive than it has ever felt on this phone. We are soooo close to a final now IMO.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
For those that may have missed it earlier in the thread...looks and works great.,

John are you running FB27 StaedyHawkins Kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_hubbard:
I get the same thing. Only other bug I've found so far is Exchange calendar/contacts not syncing....but I fixed that by installing the stock CM9 apps for email/exchange/calendar and all is well (plus the CM9 calendar app/widget is MUCH better than TW anyway).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I only Odin flashed the Steady FB27 to flash the theme. Then I flashed the kernel Tiffany posted to get back stock FC05 with no recovery

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Ok, I can't speak to the Gallery issue, I use Quickpic. IMO it blows Gallery out of the water. Now, I think we are in for something special here with final build. I have never had almost 50% battery with over 3 hours of screen on time before especially with 3 straight hours of use..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_hubbard:
Agree...just wait til Calk does his magic to this thing too.

Also wonder if tightening up of what can be flashed w/ stock recovery isn't a sign that we're closing in on a final build. Can see Sammy leaving stock recovery open on test builds but closing it up closer to a final build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rrmzr1:
Anyone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] droidiac13:
Crazy thing is how these phones work. My screen has also accounted for 58%, but it only shows 1 hour 35 mins of time on. I'm at 42% battery... Does something seem off to you John when looking at my numbers? Sorry I can't post a screenie right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TurboFool:
I'm still not getting anywhere with Exchange contacts or calendar. Anyone else?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
It could be due to apps running in background using resources. Without a screenshot or an exact breakdown of what you installed/uninstalled its hard to say what is using that battery.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
From OP...

This ROM is completely stock with exception that root/busybox is included and it uses the stock(No CWM) kernel since no repack exist. Once a repacked kernel is available, I will reupload the ROM to include it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TurboFool:
Nothing? Not even email? Because that synced fine for me, just not contacts and calendar, just as with the previous leaks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bravo1565:
OK thanks for quick response
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Differences in screen brightness can play a big part as well. I have a feeling you tend to run at pretty low brightness, and I know you run inverted apps when you can for black backgrounds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
This fixes the widget problem on Nova Launcher? How did you figure this out?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Haha!...auto brightness off. I use the brightness control by sliding my finger across status bar and....

Nothing I haven't said before. Inverted apps make a big difference with these screens. Dchibro knows what's up..brightness not minimum though..only at night. Generally between 25-40%

Heads up to everyone experiencing bad cropping on stock launchers. Grab the gallery from an aosp rom and install it. You need tw gallery for lock screen, but aosp gallery will install to data just fine and crop your images correctly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] luckychef28:
I just had a freak out while using the phone. I tried to hang up and all the icons went grey and the screen froze. It sat there hanging for a bit, not responding to screen taps or the back button. I hit the home button and after 5-10 seconds it went to the home screen, but I had the green notification bar like I was in a call. I could pull it down but could not hang up. I was able to reboot with out pulling the battery and all seems normal again.

This is VERY daily driver worthy, well above the other leaks, IMO. One big hiccup, that may be my fault, is no reason to flash back to GB. I can live without GPS until the official release.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eaponte23:
Not sure if this was fixed in 27 but Im able to set alarm now by tapping the clock. Just a heads up.

No issues with GPS, but it seems to have been varying with users since these leaks begain.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Some in test state...I believe he may have them on the AC Syndicate page. Let me look into that and I will edit this post
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
You just cant base rom performance on a market app. Especially in beta. Its just an app =P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DaKlown:
Probably has something to do with Samsung changing some code in the stock ics launcher. First thing i noticed once I disabled the touchwiz launcher. Some things are different about it from a galaxy nexus.

I also noticed that the lockscreen music controls api doesn't seem to work on this rom either.

I really hope they dont break any of androids native functionality with touchwiz but from the way these leaks are going it seems like they are testing old code on top of ics and just going from there which is really a shame. All these huge multi color buttons and goofy icons are becoming an eyesore.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
This might be a good thing. You do know that temp recovery and the ICS kernel may be involved in the flurry of hard bricks recently right? I just don't get why people are still using ROM Manager on this phone. Maybe ROM Manager is an innocent bystander but it doesn't seem worth the risk.

Why don't you use Mobile Odin?

I totally agree here, ive used mobile odin to flash a few kernels since fc05 dropped and i havent been dissappointed. Its fast easy and well worth the 5 bucks!

I flashed the updated ICS for ICS theme,then the stock kernel back on, pushed mms.apk from Tiffany's and all I can say is wow! Added bonus...I kept the blue "S" boot animation after flashing back stock kernel.

I'm curious what does everyone else think of it? Do you prefer the old ones, or the now stock one?

I personally like the new ICS battery percentage. It doesn't look good on the stock TW ICS though, it's far too hard to read.

Rom is running smooth so far. Only thing I have noticed is that my phone will not automatically connection via bluetooth with my pioneer. I have to input the 4 digit pin everytime.

Another thing, what's with the keyboard icon in the notification bar whenever I use the keyboard.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
My Bluetooth seems to pair fine. I have a Moto Finiti. I do have to press the button to ping the phone but I always had to do that. I believe the keyboard icon in status bar is intended so you can easily choose another keyboard if you want to...at least that's what I took from it since it disappears as soon as I close keyboard

These updates are coming fast. Once i have this Stock version up, i don't need a full wipe for each update correct?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clamknuckle:
Nah, it's not in this rom because it's not supposed to be on customers phones its on a bunch of testers phones and they dont want people signing in with their gmail accounts and billing a bunch of purchases to a dummy account.

FC05: My Feedback to everyone

Having tried all of Calkulin's ICS betas and now with a clean FC05 install, here are changes/improvemnets I've noticed:

VVM: So far in FC05, no voicemail crashes

Market: Aside from Google changing it yesterday from Market to Play Store (which forced me to download and manually install the new com.android.vending-2.apk ,

it still freezes when I download and install several apps without giving it a chance to catch it's breath.

Email. In the early betas, I couldn't get multiple accounts to be handled properly by Combined. Now it works perfectly.

WiFi Tether. latest FC05 doesn't include it but simply installing wifi_tether_v3_1-beta11.apk and going into it's setting to change profile to Samsung CDMA allows it to work perfectly.

USB. I find it very annoying that in order to fransfer files to/from my PC, I must constantly plug and unplug my USB cable while clicking through settings>more.USB prompts. I hope Samsung (or the geniuses on XDA or ACS) find a cure for this.

CWM. After crashes and strange behavior from several that i installed after loading FC05, I went back to using ODIN to install rogue_ET-recovery-1.2.1-FB21-rev2-rc0.tar after I had FC05 ROM and FC05 modem running.

Heat. Haven't noticed any unusual heat on back side of phone since installing FC05.

Bottom Line: I suspect (and as a few leaks have reported) that Samsung will release a final ICS within the next 10 days.

Glenn :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_hubbard:
Try Settings->Sound->Vibration Intensity and make sure that the sliders are all the way to the right.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
What do you have to click through for USB? I plugged it in the other day and didn't have to click anything. My comp instantly recognized it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
WiFi tether is included in FC05 leak. It's called Sprint hotspot again and it's in the app drawer.

We need a hotspot hack as we had it in all GB versions.

FC05 is first ICS leak/rom that I don't need to toggle my USB settings to connect my phone to pc. It works as MTP device finaly. But I'm running clean FC05 with FC05 modem and Kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darren.wlsn1:
he ment wifi tether that works now and thats why he posted correct apk to use. hotspot is NOT same as wifi tether.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] weltwon:
WiFi Tethering in FC05

Correct. Until Sprint gives us free wireless tethering (which will likely be never) we'll need hacks or extra apks as i mentioned and Darren has confirmed.

@agat63: Regarding USB, I'd love to know if there really is a way in FC05 to have it automatically allow being connected MTP because every time I plug in my USB cable my E4GT connects as a media device, which forces me to go settings>more>USB plus unplugging & replugging cable and all those annoying prompts. Are you listening Samsung?

Thanks,

Glenn :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darren.wlsn1:
hell sprint even put a "cap" on hotspot. (not hacked)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rrmzr1:
Thanks man. But its still the same. When I take the phone off vibrate the notifications can be heard but there is no vibration unless the phone is set to vibrate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
My phones connects as media device as well and in my PC drives list a D710 device/drive is comming up. When I click on that drive it shows me 2 devices available. Phone and Card.

I didn't do anything for that to happen. With FC05 it came by itself.

May be you need to update your drivers?

I don't know.
