[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VDub2174:
I'm going to be 100% honest here, I'm a little scared to do that......LOL

I'm looking into AOKP ROMs now and when I find one Ilike I'll go from there. Just a question though, is it still necessary for me to flash back to EL26? the ROM I'm using now is an ICS ROM with FD02 kernel with CWM.

EDIT:

Got my answer in one of those threads.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
I thought u had meant u were trying it on that rom lol. Yea its works great on aokp but yes use el26 or risk bricking.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VDub2174:
I like customizing my phone and all but I'm not that adventurous.......LOL

I saw a post my MIJJz over in the NV thread saying he was going to be updating the ROM to build 33 so I'll wait for him to do that before trying :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
Ok so I want to try this cm9. The latest cm 9 release works with that zip right? So same flash process?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Yes, same flash process if doing a clean install. If already on cm9 alpha rom, there's another section right underneath install instructions telling you how to do it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
Ok. I have never flashed cm9, is it a lot different from aokp? Such as the customization options... Sorry to ask... :/ I always liked aokp and just never bothered with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
CM9 and AOKP are similar since they are both AOSP roms. AOKP does have alot more customizations options though but I prefer CM9 just because it seems alot more stable to me. Both are very good roms though. QBKing uploaded a video reviewing CM9 alpha 3 rom here if you want to check it out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
Ok so after so many system UI crashes my nav bar finally just stopped showing. It just disappeared even after reboots. I honestly don't know what I did wrong... ?? :( I'm still on aokp. I'm not really interested in cm 9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Try adding a 4th button to your nav bar. Set its function to Menu and reboot. If that doesn't work, either start clean again or move on lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fkn0wned:
so i installed aokp 33 the newest gapps and then this for the aokp33 and everything is flawless and what not except the stock launcher doesn't work it just fc's.

and what is the point of the "hacked" nova launcher and the market, nova is already included in aokp 33 and it is the launcher that works with my device atm, but is there something special with the hacked one or is the one included just fine?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
The hacked launcher in the OP was modded specifically for the GNex running in Tablet mode. So on our E4GT, it has a decent looking app drawer where it doesn't look all crippled and so the desktop grid matches up good with the dock. You don't have to use it if you don't want to. And the hacked Play Store is only for those having some kind of compatibility issue with apps. I don't have any issues so I'm not using it. May or may not work still since it was made for the GNex.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fkn0wned:
so what do you think my issue is with the stock android launcher not working?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Oh the stock launcher will not work with this mod. Either use the hacked nova, regular nova, or apex launcher for that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
OK so I did a fresh install and got the FCs to stop...but now for the market I always get errors...yes I also tried the hacked ,market as well. Gives me some error like 492? Or something...can't install any apps at all... any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Looked it up real quick and this is what I found.

-Go in Settings / applications / Manage applications , choose 'all' tab. Then clear all data and cache of both Google play store and google services Framework

-Reboot into recovery and wipe cache and wipe Dalvik-Cache (no need to factory reset).

We only have stock recovery so just wipe cache and reboot. Try it a couple times and see if it works. If not, try this hacked market. Its the old Android Market but should still work. Just push to system/app/, set permissions rw-r--r-- and reboot. And if that doesn't work, idk because I have absolutely zero errors.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HolicXII:
Thank you so much! I've been waiting for someone to post this. Flashing now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
No problem. If you enjoy the mod, give the creator thanks or consider donating. Just follow the install instrcutions and you'll be good. Enjoy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] im0rtalz:
Not sure if rsalinas1 tested phone. The mod does work but it seems to break mobile network. I can only use wifi and placing calls no longer work. Would this be related to something that is in the services.jar?

Edit

Nevermind it looks like there might be some tower work, my phone just does not work at all or get signal at home at the moment. Hopefully it's upgrades
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
I've been in the cm9 mod since Xylograph posted it and I've received phone calls fine so its good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigpeng:
Nice fix, cured my FC's I'm Facebook.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigpeng:
Oops, meant to quote this but awesome fix.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darkshneider:
I know its a pain, but if you access the Play Store on a higher DPI setting, you can get your apps, install them and then switch to 128 DPI.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
I added it to the tweaks section in the OP. Thanks for confirming.

I will add this under the Hacked Market info so people can have an option on what to do. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
No need for hacked Nova Launcher anymore if you were using it. Update to v1.1 and you're good. Makes this mod look even better. Updated OP.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuatillo1:
sorry for this comment seriously...:( but i installed everything clean running CM9 but... i cant!! find Rom control!!! can anyone guide me please!!:(:( sorry guys..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
CM9 doesn't have Rom Control, that's AOKP.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tsjoe2:
I am loving this. Thanks a lot. Thinking of keeping this setup. Only thing is internal storage is lost. Even the storage tab crashes. Just fyi. Thanks again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
No problem. Make sure to thank the mod creator also. What rom and mod build are you using because I can see my internal storage with no crashes?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tsjoe2:
I am on cm9. Using the cm9 mod. :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Was it on a fresh install or over an existing setup? Try booting into the stock android recovery, wipe cache and reboot. If problem still persists, start clean again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tsjoe2:
Alright thanks. I was already thinking of starting clean. It was an existing install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] canito63:
I can't get it to display the nova launcher icons at the bottom. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Is it Nova Launcher 1.1? If so, you have to enable the show dock setting under dock settings.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] morehouse.adennis:
any body try setting density to 160? Make it more user friendly for us big fingered fellows.

Nope. Don't bother trying. Doesn't look right
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Carbajal3009:
It still works in tablet mode with that dpi? Would like some screenshots please :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Upon update of Nova, I am receiving "Package file not signed correctly. Uninstall the previous copy of the app and try again?" Also ran the buttons off zip and its not shutting them off??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] canito63:
Thx man that's what it was.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iniz94:
Is reflashing the only way to "undo" this mod? Or can I turn on/off Hybrid at will?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
I would think that you would have to reflash. So here is the cacheformat zip that Erick gave to us which will allow you to reflash or update to another build without losing user date.

View attachment Format_Cache.zip
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] im0rtalz:
You can turn it off by simply changing your dpi back to 240 and it will revert back to phone. I'm currently on cm9 and it's great I have apex launcher all set up for when I'm in phone mode and nova set up when I'm on tablet mode. Change dpi with Rom Toolbox and reboot.

Using this tablet ui, makes me wish I had a galaxy note, the extra screen size must be so nice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SPE926:
Loving this mod. Changed the font to large in settings and everything looks amazing. Makes this screen look even better
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Just wipe cache/dalvik cache and reflash. You will still have your data and everything else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
What widget is that on your home screen? Looks nice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SPE926:
The date one? Extdatewidgetxl
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FrameCityJackal:
How can you tell the mod is added mine looks nothing like that my DPI is at 160 tho....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
The dpi has to be set to 128 like it says in the instructions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FrameCityJackal:
Ahh I'm a dunce I skimmed through it :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Lol we all have our days.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lt.anthonydelgado:
guys, AOKP was just updated to build 34... will this mod work with that or do i really have to kick back to 33?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Xylograph:
For AOKP TabletUI mods please check my main thread for updates..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lt.anthonydelgado:
aha thank you so much now i gotta run to a job interview!!! but im so happy to have it up and running on the latest!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] charlie81:
ok can some please explain to me how to get all three nav bottoms on the screen in portrait followed the op to no avail
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Settings, Rom control and navigation bar. In the nav bar settings you should see button quantity. Make sure that when you switch the quantity you are in landscape mode because when you do this it will space the buttons correctly. You need to click quantity one and then to, recommended, four. When you reboot you will need to go into button quantity again and select one and then four again(while in landscape mode) to get the correct spacing after reboots.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] charlie81:
thanks

video tutorial

hey, being that this rom was created for the GNex could you make a video tutorial showing us how to install it on the Epic 4 touch? :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] charlie81:
try this rom its included and the rom is fast as hell im running it

Sorry I haven't updated OP, been busy with studying, doing work. Its finals week. Can't wait til Friday.

EDIT: Updated OP between studying lol. Please make sure to give Xylograph his thanks. If it wasn't for him we wouldn't have this awesome mod.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fattmann:
Hot damn, about to give this a go. Calkulin's v3.0 has been giving me hell..

Question tho- Can you with Nova (or any other Launcher for that matter) change the bindings on the soft keys?

I did a honeycomb theme on my Evo way back, and had the soft keys look the part, but they were just bound to different actions as to avoid redundancies. Or even a remap of the hard keys..

Just a thought. Hopefully this will work out this time, last time I tried CM9 and AOKP ROMs my phone put up a fight, lol.

Thanks to the devs!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Im not sure if what you want is possible. I think I've heard of an app that can do that so try searching that. Juat try it on a clean install and it should work fine. Let me know if you're having any trouble.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fattmann:
I've had a few roms in the past that allowed changing the bindings on the physical keys, the mod I was describing is more of a launcher tweak, Im sure it's doable but not complaining at all.

Seems to be working well! Literally just booted with the 128dpi. Will have to sift through all the settings and get it running proper tomorrow.

Two questions: What is the limit on the dpi before it reverts to phone UI?

And also (this is probably better suited for the AOKP thread), will restoring my apps with Appextractor from a TW rom cause FC on a AOSP rom?

Otherwise looks good so far! Will have to check back in a day or so and let you guys know. Thanks again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
128 is the limit. Set it to 129 and it will revert to phone ui. And im not sure about the second question but doesnt hurt to try. I restore appps for titanium backup all the time with little problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bendirkss:
Can thisbe switched on and off or does it need to be uninstalled?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fattmann:
I found Appextractor through someone mentioning it on here, I like its Super simplistic interface. Will give it a try with the restores today and report back.

So far it seems rock solid! Ended up going with AOKP 34, and wouldn't you know it has the button customization I was looking for baked into the ROM. While I haven't finished my setup- that allow me to have soft keys on the status bar, while not being redundant with the hard keys. Just need to find appropriate themed icons and I'm set!

The only "bug" I ran into was on the first two boots, there was a crazy rendering (right word?) glitch when trying to add icons to the homescreen. When long pressing to drag from the drawer, or long pressing an icon on the homescreen, it would auto-rotate to landscape and drop your icon.

After the third reboot this issue disappeared. Just thought I would mention it.

Keep up the good work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
Here's an app Button Remapper that will let you remap the capacitive buttons - I always just switch the menu & search...how stupid is it to have to reach all the way over for the button you use so much, when the one right by your thumb is the one you use the least (at least I never use the search button). This used to be in the market...er, play store but it's not there anymore - but now it lives on!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] auau465121:
okay just fresh install this and it keeps telling me Unfortunately launcher has stopped any help would be appreciated
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fattmann:
Fantastic! I will give it a go.

Also, I've ran into a snag. I was messing with the nav bar icons, and got them all boogered up, so I hit reset nav bar. Now I have no nav bar. Did a few reboots, played with some settings, nothing. I could do a full reflash, but I am not near a computer with ODIN.

Any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kleen3r:
Go into settings rom control and power menu. Turn on the navigation bar. Then use the toggle.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
If you are trying to use stock ICS launcher, it doesn't work with this mod. I suggest Nova v1.1.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] auau465121:
Okay yeah that was crazy but where did you get your 4th launcher menu button from?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fattmann:
That did it. Thanks!

Does anyone happen to know where the soft key icon .pngs are in the ROM structure? I wanted to have 4 or 5 soft keys, with legit buttons, but do other functions, but I can't find the .pngs anywhere when sifting through the .zip.

Specifically I'm currently looking for the three vertical squares that several people are running, but none of the presets auto populate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Thats built into AOKP. Just go into Nav Bar settings and change button quanity to 4.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] auau465121:
thanks again this add on is great if i could make the font bigger this would be perfect :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
You can under some setting. I'm not on AOKP so not sure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
It's under the stock Settings>Display>Font Size:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krahim786:
which keyboard are you guys using with this? i feel that swiftkey x and v.3 beta are too small. the stock keyboard is great but autocorrect portion is screwed up. ive also tried swiftkey tablet, but also too small..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kleen3r:
I use the one in the OP.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krahim786:
not bad, but autocorrect, autospace, and other premium features are not that great. any others?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
I am using Ultra Keyboard and it works wonderful.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
How are u guys liking this mod?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DutchDogg54:
I used it for about a day. It's very "cool" - but it wasn't a daily driver type of interface for me. It was very fun to see the different apps and the way the tablet displays them but things were just too small and having been back 180 dpi the last couple days has just reminded me why our screen size doesn't come as a tablet. :p It's really awesome that you took the time to figure it out for our device and I'm definitely going to keep it around to show off to people but, for me, functionality has to take precedence over form.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sjsharksfan420:
I agree with you.. but the thing just looks sooooo sick now.. I where glasses so maybe its easier for me to see? I will say it takes a little adjustment to get used to, but after that, I can see using as a daily..

Oh, most definitely could be a DD - I don't want to discourage a soul from trying it because it's a very special experience on our device. I like it a lot!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
I can agree with that but I'm used to it so its working good for me.

True.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VDub2174:
I finally flashed this along with NV and it looked really awesome! I liked the way the menus changed but everything was too small for me. I'm damn-near blind so I need everything to be big enough for me to see without having the phone in my face.....lol

If there's a way to make it a bit bigger, then I would have that as my daily driver.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Sorry, 128 is as high as we can go and have tablet mode. Did you try setting the font size to Huge to see if it made any difference to you?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MidwestDrummer:
I used to be pretty handy with flashing and whatnot with my EVO 4G, but I haven't bothered with anything since upgrading to my Epic 4G Touch. Despite the knowledge I thought I possessed, I'm having trouble making heads or tails of the steps, and the exact order.

If someone might be able to draw up a little guide, or maybe just lay out the steps in layman's terms, it'd be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Odin el26 cwm kernel using PDA slot. Upon reboot, pull battery. Then boot into recovery (holding power and volume up). Wipe data/cache/dalvik cache. Then flash rom, gapps, then finally tablet mod for your specific rom. Boot into rom and set dpi to 128 using something like rom toolbox (build.prop tweaks) and reboot. You are now in tablet mode. That's the easiest way I could put it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
So if I use this on AOKP will I be able to get rid of the navigation buttons? It just bugs me to have them when I have actual buttons.

I flashed the capacity lights off zip thing but it only works for a minute or two b4 turning back on w/ full brightness. I'm on AOKP B34. Anyone else getting this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Yeah, my phone did the same thing with the zip. I can give you the way to fix this permenantly on your current set up but if you want them back you will need to reflash everything. Here are the steps I used (to disable them using ES explorer go to system/usr/keylayout find the file sec_touchkey.kl and open it with the text editor delete the 4 lines in it and save, this will create sec_touchkey.kl.bak which you will use if u want to turn em back on. Then go to display custom backlight, enable ,edit other levels 0 out button column and save. Reboot and enjoy now physical keys, just make sure ur navigation bar is enabled b4 you reboot the capacitives will work up until the reboot but after u reboot they won't work at all)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Um thats the point of the tablet mod. If you just want to use the hardware buttons, dont flash this mod.

Im ready lol. But if I'm ever late, check the mod creators original post if I'm late updating.

I can remove and add Widgets just fine. Maybe its the launcher you're using.

It turned mines off permanently. But I am on CM9. Using a root browser, go to system/lib/hw and make sure the lights.sph-d710.so has been replaced by a file like lights.exynos.so. If its still there, just delete it and reboot.

slick_rick, getting force close when tapping on google search bar on top!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Using Nova Launcher? Thats weird. I'm not getting an FC's whatsoever.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sjsharksfan420:
For sure, check out an app called 'Big Font' from the market. I used it to reduce everything before tabletUI, but you can increase the font size as well, so you can retain the 128 dpi and make everything bigger, aside from all of the size settings in the system settings or launcher (say like go launcher)

But 'Big Font' from the market will do the trick for you..

Lemme k ow what you think and if it works

Actually Im still using the hacked Nova because I kept getting a error about the package so I never updated and when I use google search the same thing happens to me??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Well the one time I flashed the tablet ui mod over an existing AOKP setup, I had alot of force closes so the only possible solution I'd say is wiping nova launcher data or starting fresh.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
I went ahead and flashed it, and hid the buttons other than that, I really love the mod. It makes me feel like I have the galaxy note. I could've just changed the dpi but I like the notifications at bottom and split settings menu.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Ok I see what you did. You wanted the tablet interface but not the on screen buttons. Must be on AOKP right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] samsmalls:
Thx great instructions does this mod default to aokp. I've noticed that after build 32 my camera sounds are always on despite the option being disabled & audio to silent. It was always silent on CM9 until i flashed even with volume silent.anyway to disable camera sound with this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theonebakery:
Yeah Im on aokp and loving it. Thanks for the mod!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
No problem. Make sure to thank the mods dev also!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] samsmalls:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Yea I guess but its been implemented in ICS. On some devices like the Nexus, all you have to do is put the dpi to a certain level. On our devices, it requires a couple more changes than that. I've already gotten that face once lol.
