If you wanna run the rom it couldnt just flash a new modem and drivers all releases are going to need a one time flash for the new modem with odin. unless someone makes an updater script which goes from fc09 to nexus modems or something.

Edit: this is just my idea it might be defferent
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Idk if it really even needs the nexus modem.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
explain?
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
It does, nvm. Bbelos hadn't tried it with the epic modem yet, but he did and it didn't work. Now he has the patch up for his three kernel and in the device source.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
I am still sticking with my ETA of never ;D
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
NEVER! lol :D im thinking about going to the evo design 4g
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
O_o why?

~E.R.A.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
because all the problems with it, lol i heard it sucked. but 4.0 sense is on it
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Soo...you want to have problems?

My friend got the EVO V 4G(EVO 3D on Virgin Mobile) with sense 3.6 and *hates* it.

~E.R.A.
[Epic 4G General] captivated1971:
hey to andy i has an evo design 4g for sprint if ur interested in it pm me its practically brand new.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Wanna make it interesting?
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
Thanks,

got it working after flashing CM9. When can we expect a new build?
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
although I dont know what xboxfan's plans are. there might be a build within the next few days if what im testing works..
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
I may rebase to the newest build, depending on how good this build is. Expect something released sometime this week. May be GB, may be ICS. Whatever works best.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
im thinking gb. we are going to have to fix sd mount on ics sense. oh and btw. check this out.

(;
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Bbelos and noobnl said they are working on a patch to make the modem more stable. I'll release a build tomorrow most likely and I will work on the gb kernel and release a 2.1 build soon. 2.1 will be a beta and 4.0 will be an alpha/prealpha.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Btw, Widgets work now :)
[Epic 4G General] xfreshboimariox:
even the famous weather/ clock widget ^.^ ?
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
Awesome :)
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Dude, you're a machine!

~E.R.A.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Can't take credit for that one. It was a nexus s dev, qube2 that fixed it.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Ahh, well...

Keep on porting the awesomeness lol.

~E.R.A.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Can someone test the 2.1 build below. Yes you need a crespo modem

Http://d-h.st/mAx
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
I would love to test and am downloading it right now... but I have a stupid question, that google could not answer. What is a crespo modem?

EDIT: In the Sense4all site I downloaded modem.bin for the epic... what do I do with this?
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
you have to flash it with odin or heimdall, with odin put it in the phone slot and flash, dont forget to have a stock modem when you flash to rom other than this
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
I installed the rom and tried it. The message "Unfortunately the process android.process.acore has stopped working"

or some other process similar to that came up at the while it was booting.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
forcecloses and softboots are normal right now, just make sure to do a factory reset before booting the rom, it should be runnable and a forceclose or 100 will happen from sd not being mounted, things missing, etc etc
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
Got it working. After a factory reset it was VERY smooth. Very little lag, not one process restarted, and even customizing the launcher worked great. Also, widgets worked very well. I made one call, it seemed to work, but wifi and data still do not.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
MRock419, use the modem.bin from marcusant.com/android/epic

The one at sense4all is an ics one and doesn't seem compatible.
[Epic 4G General] xBTx:
On the version you sent me yesterday, it's the opposite for me. No data with the one at marcusant.com, but data with the sense4all one.

There's also a really annoying messaging bug where whenever you recieve a message, it doesnt have a contact name or number, so all replies from everyone are in one thread.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
xBTx, did I send you sensecrespomodemv2.zip? With that one I was the exact opposite of you.
[Epic 4G General] xBTx:
Yeah that's the one, but it got interesting. First boot with gb modem, no data. Flash ics modem, data. Rebooted, no data. Flashed gb modem again, data. Gb modem also fixed the messaging error.

Edit: rebooted and lost data again.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Yeah the crespo modem is inconsistent.
[Epic 4G General] xBTx:
Well that's unfortunate.
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
Any news/builds?
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Someone please test this

http://d-h.st/fsY

and odin the modem here

http://marcusant.com/android/epic/modem.bin

Reboot a few times and make sure service works on all boots.
[Epic 4G General] xBTx:
Working good for me. Nice work.
[Epic 4G General] stevie13.xo:
Once wifi works in this I'm in

sent from your mom's phone.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
I'm almost tempted to try your Sense builds before I get my S3, but I'm not. I'm still not comfortable flashing my phone. Next and last flash I do is gonna be a repartition to stock FC09.
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
What does and doesn't work? If data and wifi work i would consider having this as a permanent rom.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Wifi and data do. Assuming this fixes the bug where ril only works on some boots.
[Epic 4G General] zacnking:
Boot will take about 5 or more min so be patient but everything works no lag no data loss wifi works and all is awesome! Let me know if you need a sense 4 tester I dig me some flashing! Amazing work xboxfanj
[Epic 4G General] zacnking:
One thing I noticed the physical keyboard when I open it the auto rotate gets stuck but other than that flawless!!!!:@)
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
thats a bug from rosie.apk(maybe)or something that requires tearing android policy apart, try using a auto rotate widget or something, i think i remember seeing this, Jake... If this works you have to change the build baack to Jake is awesome :D

---------- Post added at 01:51 AM ---------- Previous post was at 01:47 AM ----------

edit:

if the auto rotate stays in landscape when keyboard is open thats normal, but if it gets stuck in portrait try to turn the screen off then on,
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
I think that may just be the default theme. Also, the android.policy.jar fix is only ICS. Either way, I'm going to release today.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
I might have to flash one of the sense builds..lol

Can't order my GS3 until the 9th, which means I'll have this baby for ~2 more weeks at most.

Which do you recommend Jake? 2.1 or 4?
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
sense 2.1 is stable

4.0 softboots a lot.

i think the only thing keeping me from using this as a daily is the camera, i gotta keep those kodak moments with my son. lol
[Epic 4G General] MRock419:
And do you have to flash the cyanogenmod rom first, or can u just factory reset, odin the modem, and flash?
[Epic 4G General] stevie13.xo:
Cameras a no go?

sent from your mom's phone.
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
Factory reset. Odin modem. Flash rom. ??? Profit....
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Camera works. I fixed it today.

Hmm I had no idea motoblur was being ported as well? Well glab to see some variation from tw cmX and miui but I honestly don't like motoblur even on my friends dual core droid 3 it seems rlly slow...
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Based on raymonddulls video, it looks smooth. I haven't run it myself yet.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
If its anything similar to the sense its smooth. It seems smooth according to the video of it.
[Epic 4G General] rulyskull:
anything new :)

sent from my Epic 4g running touchwiz for now.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Many developers have told me it is impossible, but I don't believe it. I'm working with an optimus one developer who should be able to help
[Epic 4G General] Shinydude100:
If a Touch Pro 2 running Windows Mobile 6.1 can run Vanilla Sense, we should too. Perhaps the future Windows Dev Phones will be a big help, they're going to start making them with arm architecture, which is what we're on.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
The problem isnt running it. Its fixing the telephony stuff and samsung uses a hackedup telephony framework which sense doesnt seem to like.
[Epic 4G General] rulyskull:
So that sounds like reverse engineering the framework and recreating it your self, oh boy

sent from my Epic 4g running touchwiz for now.

You've done pretty well on these xboxfanj and co! Keep up the good work. I'm sure many users will enjoy to have these roms.

Hey logcats are annoying too =] kidding I'm trying my best to be the test dummy for xboxfanj.. speaking of which it may be a while before I get the chance to do what you had asked of me xbox ;) sometime today tho ill for sure report back with result of your "expierement."

[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Got a 3.5 sense to boot... bootloops but it boots... planning on fixing sense 2.1 tho.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Ya im gonna keep working on 2.1 and 4.0. Got some people trying to help integrate samsungs ril into htc framework
[Epic 4G General] :
Awww man I'm amp'd now, I can't wait to see how it comes out.
[Epic 4G General] sneezy316:
That would be great. Looking forward to trying sense on the epic.

BTW, did you manage to fix miui for the p4wifi?

Thanks,
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Not yet. The keyboard thing is weird and I haven't had much time to look at it. Tbh on tablets, I don't like miui that much, but when I get a a chance, I will look info it
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Me and Darkierawr are currently hacking into the frameworks, so just know that yes we are still working on this and no it has not been abandoned.
[Epic 4G General] stevie13.xo:
Thanks good to know.. I am really looking forward to try out sense
[Epic 4G General] roddygonzo17:
I am REALLY looking forward to having blur on my phone. I seen that video and it made me want it even more than before it booted!!! GREAT WORK XBOX AND ALL OTHERS PUTTING TIME INTO THIS ROM!!! It will def be a keeper for me.

Wanted to bump this thread and was wondering if their is anymore progress?

[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
its been a ***** to recompile HTC framework since they leave a lot of errors in their framework but we'll either break thru that or find out how to use nexus ril
[Epic 4G General] rulyskull:
Awesome man thank you
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
Still been hard at work on these I see!
[Epic 4G General] philowneus:
I'm still eagerly waiting
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
We're still trying to get samsungril in. We found a tool that may help, which puts it into a java format so we can compare it to the cm sources.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Nice! Sounds awesome. If that's all that isn't working, you could release the "pre-alpha alpha" versions, for guys that like to mess around with new roms.

Just a suggestion, its all up to you :-) cause I personally won't use anything w/o cell service for anything longer than 10 minutes

~E.R.A.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
I would prefer to at least have calls 100% working. I will release it as a prealpha then. If anyone wants it knowing calls won't hang up or receive, they can let me know.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
What do you think of E.R.A. Sense-y and I Know It ROM as a title, zander? Or something perhaps more classy like E.R.A. Sensation or something else?
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Pshh, with calls itd be "pre-alpha beta RC" ROFL

The rom doesn't have to have ERA in the title lol.

[ROM][ERA]Sense-y and I Know It

[ROM][ERA]This is Non-Sense

Or on the serious side

[ROM][ERA]Sense X.X Port (X.X= version number. Sense 3.0, 3.5, 4.0 etc, whichever you're working on lol)

That's all I got ATM, just suggestions though lol

~E.R.A.
[Epic 4G General] stevie13.xo:
So no data yet ?

Edit... Nvm after thoroughly reading your responses
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
You have sense 3.5 booting? Id love to take a peak at it and run logcats if you need. (:

Oh and are you editing the RIL? I was told its hard to rewrite it from scratch, and there was a team on xda who got sense ported by editing framework, no need to touch RIL. Idk though. Just a thought
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Havent tried 3.5. Ive been working on 2.1.

And we are editting some of the ril framework files. Can you put me in touch with that team?
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
Ahh crap. Probably can't find it through everything Iwas reading lastnight. But maybe look for a ril editor with sense and ask swamp goblin for help? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1489851
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Do you know which device? Also, me and swamp and another guy named t.c.p. have been working together trying to get sense booting on epic touch 4g, so then we can fix ril together. They're really close to getting it booting, and its nice that we're all able to help each other as a team.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
No I don't The posts are long as **** to go through but the devices I looked at were nexus nexus s and the 4g. the energy ROM and codename android and a few others. Does the HTC RIL just not work with epic? Couldn't you write the framework so that if it calls for the RIL when making calls,etc you could redirect it to use the Samsung RIL? or is that impossible?

I can help compare the framework files or help with logs if you want to send me a PM although I've never done it before but hell, it couldnt be any easier than modding Call of duty 4 with VB right?
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
No idea honestly, thats what were trying to do, but its unsuccessful so far, so i will pm a copy.
[Epic 4G General] lilparker2009:
Xboxfanj can u pm me a link I think I have a couple of ideas that might fix the phone call issue
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Awesome thanks.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Pm sent btw. If anyone else wants it and think they can help, let me know.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Any luck, lilparker? Also, be sure to pull the files from stock and not cm. Do adb logcats and logcat -b radio to figure out which file to pull. In other news, now that graphics work on sense 4 on the nexus, I'm gonna port ics sense to epic and pause gb.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
Sounding good man :)
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Hey guys. I need some testers for sense 4 tonight. Who's in? If you are a tester, just fyi, it may not boot and i am not responsible for bricking your phone. Also, if it does not boot, please logcat. Let me know if you are interested and know how to logcat.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
LOL! im down. just semi-bricked my epic, 4 times but got the last port to boot to lockscreen (:

To be honest i just want the sense 3.5 lockscreen, hahahah pm me a link and ill give it a go again.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Actually, I've changed my mind. Can't get sense 4 to boot, so now I'm working on gb again. I've made some progress. Got samsungs telephony stuff integrated, so we're closer to getting everything working. Then we just need to fix the errors and we'll have almost everything working.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Smart move... Sense 4 has broken multi-tasking anyways. If anything 3.5 will be the best thing to port. Its is the only sense i partially like. They runined sense 4... worse than sasmung did with their ICS touchwiz. :D
[Epic 4G General] :
@Xbox you ever heard of LewaUi? It's similar to Miui and it's built around CM7, I like the music player that comes with it, I tried installing it, but it doesn't to my dismay. Got any tips to get it to install?
[Epic 4G General] xBTx:
If you mean LewaOS, I've already ported it. There's a couple big problems I haven't gotten around to (trying) to fix. I have two other cool ports in the works as well.
[Epic 4G General] rulyskull:
Cool beans
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Its probably dependent on the framework. In other news, I think I'm gonna get sense four booting today.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
Good luck (:
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Dude read the post above this one.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
im guessing symlinks are messed up, keep getting this logcat

exec '/system/bin/sh' failed: No such file or directory (2)
[Epic 4G General] :
Why is today so special :) lol
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Because it didn't go to boot screen until today, so we're making progress and a couple log cats should show us what to change.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
When you check gmail ill send the logcat
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Sense four boots. A bit past my deadline, but very close.
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
There is no deadline! Lol... congrats man!
[Epic 4G General] rulyskull:
Holy ****! Good job man!
[Epic 4G General] roddygonzo17:
Thats great dude! Congrats and Thanks :) I cant wait until there's a finished product cuz you better believe that this will be my daily.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Anyone wanna make a video tonight?
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
I will. :D 1080p nexus camera
[Epic 4G General] :
What if I don't ? ;)
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Thanks. I'll let you know when the build is ready and not force closing (No one wants to see force closes on a video).
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Awesome :D finally get to test it out. Can't wait to see what it looks like.
[Epic 4G General] Phantomg93:
Awesome!!

Xboxfanj you are awesome and thanks alot for continuing to try on getting sense on our Epic's. Once a stable build is up it will be my daily driver for the rest of my contract with Sprint lol:) Soo looking forward to seeing it!!
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Also, fixing RIL should be easier since on CM9, the team integrated most of their fixes directly into the SamsungRIL.JAVA file, so only three files had to be changed to integrate it rather than the nine or ten-ish on GB. This means data, calls, and texts should be working 100%, faster.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Awesome. Now you just need to fix the broken multitasking of sense 4 :D
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Thanks, I'm looking forward to it too, though I can't necessarily say it'll be my only ROM on my phone from here on out. Hopefully I can port Touchwiz 4.0 too. I may nix blur, just since many people-me included- don't like it.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
There's probably a way to add in the stock ICS one.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
well see... and you know I mean the way it handles apps in the memory and not the recent apps deal. It will exit out apps even if you didn't clear it. Even if its in your recent apps.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Oh I thought you meant recent apps, the other thing, idk. From what I read I thought that was a ramdisk issue and since I didn't copy the parts that could've changed there, I should be fine, but we'll see.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
If that's the case can I haz sense 4 on my gnex hahaha. :D:D

When do you think it with be ready I won't be home from 7-9:30 central time. If you can wait I would love to do the video if not it will be fine if someone else does...
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
TBH, I'm not sure yet. May not even be tonight. I'll let you know when I know.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Alright
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Also, Uber, Coentje44 is porting to the GSM Nexus, so after that, it should be easy to get it on the Sprint and Verizon variants. He's the guy who got Rosie (Sense launcher) to render on the Nexus S and in turn the epic.
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
crap I knew you were going to get it booted while I was working. send me a link and ill debug for you again :D
[Epic 4G General] Phantomg93:
Yeah I had a Cliq XT on T-Mobile..blur ruined everything lol

Here it is for anyone that wants it at its current stage.

IDK if its video worthy yet, but you guys can decide.

IDK what works and what doesn't, but it does know it's on sprint and if gb is anything like this, calls will send but not recieve and won't hang up and texts will work, but not data. I accidentally deleted the browser.
[Epic 4G General] rulyskull:
This is sense 4 right? And all that matters at this point is it boots
[Epic 4G General] xfreshboimariox:
can u PM the link to me too

i would love to try it please ?

sorry just saw it up
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
You need cwm and not twrp btw and call audio seems borked. I may know what to do to fix that.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Also if qnyne wants the gb build, its at marcusant.com/android/epic/sense.zip
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
audio flinger is dieing on my logcat when i try to make a call

[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
I'll make backup on my epic. And flash this and make a video. :D when I get home. Just so that people can see it without having to flash it.
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
So twrp is required to flash? Just wanna make sure.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Nah I had it backwards, you need cwm not twrp.
[Epic 4G General] Phantomg93:
Cool, I'll actually try this and the other sense build on here and mess with it see what works and what doesn't. The worst that can happen is a bricked Epic for me lol
[Epic 4G General] Andy_nu:
DO NOT USE TWRP WHEN FLASHING these sense builds!it has deleted my recovery many times before if you do you will have to odin, if you are on twrp use marcusants zip to restore cwm www.marcusant.com/android/epic/restore-cwm.zip
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
So it boots to the lockscreen is that it? Or did i get a bad download it wont let me get past the choose a launcher... that and it soft reboots...? bad download or is this normal? Also wont get out of landscape mode...
[Epic 4G General] Phantomg93:
UBER I'll let you know In a sec. I was having trouble dl'ing the sense.zip one and it's almost done and did you re-flash it to see it it might help?
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Apparently the libaudioflinger from the one v fixes audio. Try adding it and see please.
