****FAQ****

[Q] "My apps won't install from market, says sd or storage error" [A] Make sure your on the stock NO CWM kernel or remove your SD card and install app.

[Q] "Can I update from 1.x to 2.x" [A] Yes you can, but read the OP instructions!! If no special instructions listed use a full wipe or modded wipe.

[Q] "Whats an "Update zip"? [A] It is NOT a full rom, ONLY updates what you have already, ie, 1.9 to 2.0, ONLY requires a wipe of cache and dalvik only.

[Q] "My PC does not show my SD or How to connect USB to PC" [A] Settings/More/USB utilities and select "Connect storage to PC"

[Q] "How do I go back to EL29 or GB roms" [A] Use sfhubs OneClick rooted EL29 HERE and then use Autoroot HERE to get recovery, then restore your nand. Read all the info FIRST!!

[Q] "Im getting SoD (sleep of death, screen of death), HELP!! [A] If you have a repacked kernel, that is more than likely causing it. Flash a stock NO CWM kernel and see then.

[Q] "OMG, this has BEATS!! Wheres the app" [A] It is running in the background, its not just in one player.

[Q] "My battery life is horrible" [A] This is a leak and not a final build by any means, YMMV. Have you cycled your battery atleast once? Did you just flash the rom? DO NOT judge to early.

[Q] "How do I push a apk" [A] Use a file manager that has root access, Ie, root exploer, ES file manager, Move the apk to the system/app folder, fix permissions to read RW/R/R or 1247 like on a phone key pad, wipe cache.

[Q] "How and what do I do to get recovery back" [A] If you need recovery, use Odin or mobile Odin and use THIS tar file or the .tar kernel of your choosing.

[Q] "Why do I have 2 MMS's" [A] 1 is ICS and one is stock, stock HAS to stay for you to have working SMS.

[Q] "Getting 2 sms notifications or doubles" [A] Turn off the notifications from the one you are not using.

[Q] "My camera does not work in one way or another" [A] Flash the stock NO CWM kernel for the build you are on.

[Q] "I have NO signal bars or they fluctuate" [A] It is an ICS thing/bug, it just reports wrong. Look at settings/about phone/status under signal strength.

[Q] "Exchange wont sync or problems with exchange" [A] See THIS post by "Beejmeister", Thanks goes to him for the find!!

[Q] "My GPS does not lock or work or MOST everything else" [A] Look in post #2 for the fix or work around, Should have read that already!!

[Q] "HTC keyboard works then stops or FC or does nothing" [A] Your pretty much SOL!! LOL :D, Currently no fix. ?MAYBE?

[Q] "Email widget text does not fit right" [A] Refer to THIS post from "TPIKE" for a workaround. Thanks Tpike!!

[Q] "My hotspot wont connect, WTH" Sprint hotspot or Wifi tether [A] Sprint hotspot, I have found that if you disable the password it will then connect or open app and hit menu> advanced> max clients and change it from 0 to however many you want connected. OR with Wifi tether, Change device info to GSM Galaxy Nexus.

[Q] "Facebook pictures won't sync!!" [A] Install "Haxsync" from the playstore :D

Finally. Everyone bring all your BS to this thread. haha just kidding. Thanks BTR
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
I belong here.

P.S. v3.0 is uploading, from what I can see.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mijjah74:
Its about time, damn man. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
:o 2.1MBs, maybe I'm impaitent and didn't let it upload enough yet. :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VeNuMuS:
Your right. Hopefully no one starts downloading already. But everyone needs there fix NoW!!! Like me:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
Right NAO!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ffkip911:
ive downloaded, and the rom wont boot - what's wrong with this rom???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony92170:
ok so when do you guys think ics will be finalized for our phone?

are all the lights fixed and notifactions? just wondering if not i dont care really great rom other wise
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VeNuMuS:
Your whats wrong. Im running 3.0 already:D. JK
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Overstew:
lol You're kidding, right? It shouldn't even flash without the entire updater script fully downloaded. :p

P.S. Check your file size, I'm not sure how big actual v3.0 is, but I'd assume in the 200mb field.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Lights work, sounds have not gotten a call yet so not sure if it still kicks it off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony92170:
is there a way to upload the rom without anyone seeing it then when its done you can post it? i think by doing this people wont slow it down and screw up there phones too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ffkip911:
Overstew- how you could actually write a calm, concise, polite response to my post....you are a freaking stud.

I was kidding - and BTW, 17 DL's and 55Megs up???????????????????????????????
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VeNuMuS:
Upto 26 now. People need to take a chill pill.

Edit. 31 downloads
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony92170:
Hey BTR did you get my pm a few days ago regarding the camera link i sent you? if so what did you think about it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iPervOnU:
Gotta love pre downloads xD
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony92170:
try 31. come on peeps most of you r probably not new too this stop trying to down load
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brekec88:
ICS will be finished by tomorrow...maybe thursday at the latest.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ElAguila:
This may be an app issue rather than a rom issue. I noticed this morning that there was an update for Apex on the market. I updated it and everything seems fine. But when i restart the phone it always asks me what to use as the default launcher(Apex or the stock launcher). Doesn't matter if I check the box that says to use it as the default. On the next reboot it will ask again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
My battery life has been worse on 3.1 :/. It's never been particularly good on Blend ICS but it was reasonable. And yes, I've ran it for several cycles (updated it to 3.1 right when it came out). I am also running the stock FC22 kernel and I've checked my wakelocks but nothing looks unusual. Android OS is at like 12% too. Any ideas why battery life is bad?

Also, I'm still a little confused about the 2 threads ideas. What exactly are looking for to be posted on the Development thread? I think it was never really highlighted what goes into which thread... only "BS goes here".
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cowballz69:
Anyone know why when I tether my computer the speed extreemly slow? I have full 4g bars and speed test on my phone is a little under 6meg witch is very fast. Any tricks on getting the tethering to share the same speed to my computer?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mijjah74:
Battery life is hit and miss with each person, some like me can go nearly 2 days without charging, but the only time I grab my phone is to test something. You just have to figure out what works for you and try different combinations. As for two threads, no on wants to read thru a thousand pages, so btr was nice enough to start a discussion thread.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
I would say try a different launcher and see if it still does it.

Team-Nocturnal Blended ICS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Which app are you using? Try both and see if its faster. Refer to the FAQ to get them setup right.

Team-Nocturnal Blended ICS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
What do you consider bad battery life? Getting 12hrs on time with 4hrs screen time is pretty good. I can get 21+ on time with 5hrs screen time also.

As for the 2 threads. There was a lot of goofing off, BSing and general discussion, all of which where not Development related. New users would have to dig and dig for answers. Plus it helps users with less than 10 posts ask questions to the issues without starting a new thread.

Team-Nocturnal Blended ICS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cowballz69:
Used sprint wifi and its so slow its unusable. Downloaded wifi tether and set it up as op mentioned. It is a little faster but its not sharing no where near the phones 4g speed to the laptop
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] konman21:
Change the display phone to nexus cdma
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ElAguila:
The default launcher issue was very much a "newb" fix. I feel almost ashamed. All I needed to do was clear the defaults for Apex and for Launcher and the set Apex as the default launcher again. Problem gone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I asked this a page back but I guess it was missed. I thought USB mass storage was removed in FC22. I'm running stock kernel at the moment and its in settings. I didn't try it with the rogue repack. What's the story on this? Did I flash the wrong stock kernel? I like having mass USB, just curious.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
What do you mean removed? Where you use to have to go to USB utilites to enable?

Don't think anyone said that it was removed in FC22.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Agat63 said the USB utilities was removed here. Scroll down and its in red text. I never tried it until today. I've been using MTP. Maybe he removed something he shouldn't have and broke USB. Thanks for the reply.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=6813

Edit. Not sure if the link works but it's in his FC22 Rom thread
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
I could not tell you what that is all about. This is FC22 and its still there, so I dont know. All I know is nothing like that was added or removed by Mijjah. It will always have USB mass storage.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] travisp:
Just a heads up in case anybody else runs into this.

I removed the stock Gallery.apk in favor of the ICS Gallery.apk and this caused the Camera app to freeze the phone. However I was able to fix it by booting into recovery and wiping cache.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dreDrennon1:
Where did you get the ICS gallery that is the one I like I have had but didn't back it up thinking it was the stock gallery for ICS and have not seem it since
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Just extract it from the rom and push it into system/app folder, FAQ has more detailed instructions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] phatgenius:
For those who lose their notification sounds here is a work around that I found. So it has already been talked about that notification sounds disappear after ending a phone call and hitting the home or back button. So when ending a call you need to let the phone just go back to whatever screen you were on prior. Now this is the new information that I discovered. If you lost notification sounds make a phone call and end the call. When you end the call wait for it to go back to previous screen and notification sounds will come back. I have tested this mutilpe times today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
This info was added to the FAQ already. Thanks again. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ElAguila:
Is there any known fix for the Gallery apps in ICS to stop showing icons from every apk you have in your list of gallery pictures(other than using 3rd party software)? I have placed a file named .nomediaon my sd card and internal storage card into every folder that has an apk and it is still showing all of the icons in the list of gallery pictures.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
Are you using Appmonster? Appmonster used to do that to me. If so, your showing the backed up apps icons,go to appmonster settings and check hide icons.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VanillaG0rilla:
Sooo the screenshots look like the battery icon on the status bar has the percentage...mine doesn't. Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rsbuffalo:
Great ROM:

Tried 2.5.1 and used TB to install 340 apps. I have a SanDisk micro sd 64Gb which was formatted with GB. Things did not go well with 2.5.1. To many issues to list. So, I decided to try again with 3.1. Did 3 wipes of everything for a clean install. This time after installing the ROM I moved all TB apps to device and unmounted my sdcard. Then did the TB backup from a device directory. With TB did only missing apps with data. Bingo!!! Everything is working perfectly. However, there were 3 apps not compatible with ICS. Now I see "The Goodness"! Job well done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Turn it on in settings/display.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VanillaG0rilla:
Wow do I feel stupid. I thought I seen the percentage on originally...not sure how it got turned off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btravis.elm:
Oh!

Hey... there is a general discussion thread for the best supported rom around :D TY guys!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ElAguila:
I have appmonster set to hide the icons. It was my understanding though that all that did was hide the icons when you looked at the archive from within app monster. I still have all of the icons showing up in the gallery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
I haven't used it in a while, but hiding them hid them from eveything(quickpic, root explorer, ect.) for me. Quickpic can hide them. Or .nomedia in folder should do it. I don't know I always had issues with that app restoring apps.

Can anyone confirm if ICS4ICS theme works on 3.2?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
The 2.5.1 one? Nope, to old, lots of changes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fresh_TD:
BTR, can the v3.0 stock lock screen be used for v3.2??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
I am not sure if it will work but I just posted about this to. ;)

hopefully he can get the rest of it orange (application scolls and what not) other than that its looking really good!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Ha! That's crazy. I like how it has touches of blue in places, work well together. I really don't use Widgets but man these APW ones look nice with their sunset orange theme.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fresh_TD:
v3.0 stock lock screen does work on v3.2, I flashed it with no issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DarkEye45:
I have updated to 3.2 and it went fine. Did only the wipe Cache/Dalvik and then the Calks modded wipe.

Looks good and no problems. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
BTR....what Twitter widget are you and Mijj using?? Thanks...

Debug lock code

Hello. I love the rom. But I am trying to get into ##debug# and do not know my code. It is not my msl. I've tried 000000 and 111111 and they do not work. Please help. I am running the latest version of the rom btw. Thanks again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dam90042:
NOOOOOOOOO BTR

PM me if you still want to stay with Sprint. Maybe i can help you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
I'm having same issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robbyr:
Same here but it seems that it only happens while something is syncing in the background and I don't give it enough time to finish.

My bigger issue is that I lost root access with the 3.2 update. Any idea how to get it back?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
I had the same issue

back on on 3.1. It came from not doing a complete wipe. Is suggest backing up your data with a nandroid, doing a full wipe (Calk's, cache, Dalvik and data), Reflash the ROM, let it reboot, go back to CWM do an advanced restore for data only. Hopefully that will get you fixed.

It sounds like your SU got borked. I'd try doing a fresh complete wipe and flash again. But don't do the data restore from CWM! It'll just restore SU's borkedness.

If you don't want to do that and Dell with restoring everything manually I think Sfhub had a one-click auto root you could try.

Good luck!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
You are funny BTR, nice April fool's joke.

Ian B
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robbyr:
Thanks! I's starting to figure this out... I tried the auto root and it's telling me (after it fails):

Unable to chmod /system/xbin/busybox: No such file or directory

Unable to chmod /system/xbin/busybox: No such file or directory

Unable to chmod /system/xbin/busybox: No such file or directory

Unable to chmod /system/xbin/busybox: No such file or directory

install-root.sh[63]: /system/xbin/busybox: not found
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
K. In that case it means you need to do a fresh install. After the fresh install verify that SU is installed and working properly. But do not use SU to restore any system apps or data. If possible download all you're apps directly from the market and then use TB to restore data only.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robbyr:
A fresh install of the kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Of the ROM. You'll need to do a full wipe (cache, dalvik, data and maybe throw in Calk's wipe for good measure). After wiping flash the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robbyr:
That's exactly the steps that I took to get this far. Wiped cache (x3), wiped data, wiped dalvik (x3), ran Calk's format all, and then flashed the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
You may have a bad download of the ROM......download it again just to be sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Sometimes its just a bad install. Give it a shot and see if it works. Unfortunately this whole flashing business isn't an exact science. :(

Worse comes to worse make a nandroid in case this doesn't work so we can restore everything and try something else. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robbyr:
I did mention that I am running the stock kernel? I don't know if that has anything to do with it but I know that it's mentioned here a lot as a solution for different problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
If you're running stock than you definitely should try the fresh install. And just to be safe I'd do it from a new download.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dam90042:
I don't think its a joke bro.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mr Ian B:
WHAAAAAAAAAAAT, say it ain't so!! BTR has been a savior to most of us but, I can understand decisions people make.

If true, thanks BTR.

MIJJz_BLEND_ICS_XPERIA-ARC.zip

can anyone tell me what this is "MIJJz_BLEND_ICS_XPERIA-ARC.zip"?? and if anyone has flashed it what does it do? thanks!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
It turns your phone into an arc. Kinda cool if you ask me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Lol, why did you out me so soon!! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fresh_TD:
LMAO.. turns my phone into an arc???? what doe that even mean?

Noahs arc. Rhinos stink so watch out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dam90042:
Ok guys. I really need help here!!!!

My Epic keeps beeping and showing a temp warning and it won't stop boot looping!!!

I have pulled the battery out and it's still beeping

WTF!!!

HELP ME PLEASE!!!!-
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Leave the battery out and let everything cool. I think it might hold residual juice and will stop acting up in a min.

Hit me on talk if you need to.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dam90042:
I have it in front of a fan blowing high

Have you had this before?

Holy ****, its still beeping
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fresh_TD:
MIJJz_BLEND_ICS_XPERIA-ARC.zip

BTR, have you flashed it? what kind of modification is it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
I have never had this or any temp issues. So its new to me. But I think if your able to get into recovery and wipe cache and dalvik see what that does.

BTW, that was April fools. Thanks for your pm :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Was that one just not funny? No I have not but I'm thinking along the lines of xplod maybe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
I did Calk's format all. So that's the only way to fix the android process fc?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
OK the error is so random its crazy. I got it 1 time from syncing G+ and never again. I have seen it come from a dirty install, bad download, restoring the wrong stuff with TB and syncing to apps. If it gets to be to much, redownload and flash again. After you flash give it a few minutes to relax. Then add your accounts. Give the apps some time after you sync.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dam90042:
Well the high temp caused my screen to crack. All I did was flash the Xepera zip.

Man i guess Noha wasnt toO happy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
WOW!! That sucks man. Not to sure why that would have happened.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dam90042:
It does doesn't it.

I guess it couldn't handle all this hot ICS Goodness you guys keep dropping
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sweets55:
Forgot to say I really like the orange theme. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] amw1972:
love this orange theme...not my usual...but nice fresh look.

Running FC24 modem and the FC24 stock kernel without any issues.

Hear that Sprint might have a final build for the eventual ota that i probably will just by pass. FD01 or something like that.

Understand why some devs like having a separate thread for discussion. I find this a little clunky...especially now for one ROM I'll have to visit two threads to follow on updates and fixes and trends. Just my two cents.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] amw1972:
Thought I'd throw up a couple more screenies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] itzbob701:
Does HDMI out work with this Rom? I tried and got nothing but I may have a bad cable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigtoysrock:
Because all the BS goes here and I felt like it. You don't have to follow 2 threads.

Android.process.acore fc fix

I was having this problem after a full wipe install. For me, the fix was to re-download the zip, then re-install with a full wipe. Seems I had a bad download... weird, as you would think a bad download wouldn't work at all, vs. working with FCs here and there, but that's how I fixed it.
