[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jayjay7411:
Hmm not quite sure what you mean this shows just as any other when actually connected to 4G it shows up and when idle is shows it in settings however if you have 4G turned on but not in range of a tower and your disconnected 4G (just as in tw roms) won't stay persistent in the status bar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
No its because you aren't connected to 4G like C3jay said. Its working fine as you can see.

Edit: jayjay beat me to the punch lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jayjay7411:
Actually for your first full charge I would say that's par with almost every tw gingerbread rom. Take note battery life only gets better after your first charge. So expect it to even increase tomorrow but 3 hrs on screen on time is pretty fantastic honestly ....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazyflipj:
In Touchwiz it shows in the status bar but doesn't mean its connected. Not sure what the point is of having the icon in the statusbar if it doesn't connect

Yea I wouldn't ever judge on first day, let it settle in
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cnstarz:
there are no aosp roms that display 4g when 4g isn't working. doesn't make sense to.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] C3jay:
Thats cuz in the pic it says disconnected

haha. If u were connected it would say connected and show 4g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Hahaha now I understand. I thought it was like touchwiz roms where even when it is disconnected but turned on it shows it on the status bar alongside with 3g icon. :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jayjay7411:
Just noticed the coolest thing! I'm not sure if its something I did or a rom feat but emmc is now internal storage as it should be ( like on my HTC incredible) and mnt/sdcard is my 32gig sdcard!! This is pure awesomeness cause now all my pics n videos n titanium backups wont take up all my internal space. O n apps like mc3 that need to download 500meg data to play the game :-)

Flashed FC18 kernel and modem, still no root option...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Did you flash anything after alpha 1? Kernel maybe?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dulanic:
Wait so you replaced the CM9 kernel with a stock kernel? How the hell is it supposed to give you root /w a stock kernel..... /facepalm.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Wow dude, chill out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dadoc04:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Trying what was suggested to now flash the kernel after the ROM.

Screenshot is the same as the one posted before, just not root option. Everything else is there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
Dulanic is right if he flashed a kernel over the build he wouldn't have the option :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dulanic:
I am very chill, it's just basic stuff. If you aren't comfortable /w the concepts of these things, you shouldn't be flashing alpha CM. It makes it harder for a dev to find real bugs and separate it from just user error.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noXcape:
Someone replaced the f word with hell...lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
it comes with a fc22 cm9 kernel, so no need to flash anything as far as kernels is concerned
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
I'm not uncomfortable doing this??? Been doing this for 2-3 years now. (Obviously not just on this phone)

Perhaps the instructions should state to not flash any other kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
I can confirm flashing our repack over the top of CM9 does not break any functionality....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
But we can't flash anything with it... ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] noXcape:
You can if you really want to
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
I know, just saying. Lots of warnings but I have never had an issue flashing anything ICS related on steady's ICS kernel repacks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
I must have misunderstood what you were saying, I thought you said it broke root for you.

As far as flashing from it, I have flashed kernels, modems, and inverted gapps without issue. Just need a few brave souls to try flashing roms with it. Bricking issue may not be present in new kernels, but without source its going to be gamble.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] itlbok333:
Modem question

Alpha 3 is a huge improvement! Battery and overall general response. Wifi and 3g/4g seem to be very slow though. 1.5mps on Wifi is not good. Question is would there be a better modem I can flash to improve data?

FD16 kernel working fine. Unfortunately, my new favorite game Temple Run is still freezing. Sometimes it wipes all the data after it restarts as well.

Facebook contact sync and haxsync don't work. When I go to log in it gives me a error. It says try again later. When I click okay it sends me to the desktop version of fb instead of the mobile version. If you already had haxsync or Facebook contact sync before alpha 3 then it works fine. I'm guessing because when you go from alpha 2 to alpha 3 you don't have to wipe anything when upgrading. Would some give me confirmation of this issue?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bruce Inman:

I can't add facebook to accounts and sync.

Facebook sync is a known issue with AOSP roms. Haxsync should work. Try wiping app data and log in again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Fcebook sync is not a bug. It is not supported in Android anymore. I'm not sure if CyanogenMod will support it or not, but otherwise it will require modification outside stock ICS sources.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GeneralSky2004:
Has anyone else noticed how quiet the stock alarm application is? Is there a way to turn the volume up on it? It's all the way up in settings, but still super quiet compared to what it would normally be. I downloaded an outside alarm application and it works fine, but I'd rather be able to use the stock one. The outside app allows me too set it as a "ringtone" rather than an alarm. It's like the alarm volume needs a boost. Maybe something to look into, it's probably a simple fix. Loving Alpha 3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
I don't know what's going on there. Looks like you're getting bit by the Android OS bug, which got knocked out for me in Alpha 2. I average around 15-20 hours on CM9 with around 6-7 hours of screen on time. My Android OS usage is usually down around 20%.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bruce Inman:
Kind of a work around: Install Audio Booster and Audio Manager from the market. You can boost your sound and split your volumes.

Try getting a lock with "GPS Fix" or another GPS app first. If all else fails, the fix is to flash back to EL29 GB, get a lock and leave it, then flash to ICS.

My GPS is working flawlessly, but I did not have to flash back to stock first.

---------- Post added at 05:30 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:29 PM ----------

[/COLOR]It's questionable that it has something to do with the ROM, maybe this question should be raised elsewhere... that said, I'd probably remove the app, clear any SD card caches that are related to that app, restart, and try installing it again. backups might be helpful too if you have them, maybe the apk on your sd is corrupt.

Besides the CM9 Settings & Hacks, Kernals, etc., why is this ROM in Alpha stages and not in Beta...

Even QBKing77 says that he doesn't have ANY issues WHAT-SO-EVER!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackroseMD1:
The main reason is lack of a true AOSP kernel. I agree, though, this thing is rock solid.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lesbox:
So I updated to Alpha 3 from Alpha 2 and it's not gone so well.... Here's the primary issues I've experienced..

When connecting to a computer (either Windows and OS X) the phone mounts both internal "SD" storage and actual SD storage, but when I try to actually use it (copy files back and forth) the phone randomly disconnects from the computer, but still shows as being connected on the phone. The only way I can get it to reconnect (windows & os x) I have to turn off SD storage on the phone and switch to a different USB port on the computer. And even still it will seem fine for a couple of minutes and then disconnect again.

Has anyone else been experiencing this?... or have any ideas?

____

Also, my GPS was amazingly quick on Alpha 2 using the "GPS Fix" (EL rom gps lock, turn off, flash CM7, get lock, turn off, flash CM9) but since upgrading to Alpha 3 it's taking forever to get a GPS lock... :-(

___

Going to go back to EL GB and then do a clean flash of A3 instead of upgrading from A2 to see if it fixes my issues....
