Well I definitely have everything to my liking now. I am charging back up so I can wipe my battery stats and I will be good to go from there. I did notice I had to hit the profile update a couple of times because it didn't initially disconnect from 3g properly but that was a non issue really. I got it updated on 3rd try

Yea i had that too. *shrug*
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigJPNut:
@ agat63, I noticed on the FD26 odexed version you left out some files in system/xbin, like zipalign. remount. etc. Was this on purpose?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jt_hatch:
Also seems didn't include wifi tether, and I'm not seeing the aokp gallery (just the regular old gallery). Not a big deal on either front, just noticing.

Speaking of gallery, something I've encountered many times w/ the ics leaks... if I don't do a full data wipe before flashing a new one, some of the folders in my gallery have extra thumbnails but they're "broken" (e.g. folder that should have 53 picks shows up like it has 104 but half are bogus). Anyone else see this? Clearing data on the gallery app doesn't fix it; I haven't been able to figure out how fix it w/o a full data wipe. (Again, not a big deal -- I usually use quickpick anyway, but it doesn't take that long to back up my apps/data with rom toolbox, wipe and reflash, and restore everything.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kchitown1977:
loving themed rom right now. is there a way to save pictures as .jpg instead of .png, and also is there flashable zip for shutter sound
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
You want shutter sound back?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I didn't include wifi tether because I still can't make it work when flashing with the rom. It works fine wen installed separately but everytime I flash it with rom it FC's.

Sorry about the gallery. I put it in deodexed rom but somehow forget to put it into odexed one.

It was 3 in the morning thou.:D

Was a very long day for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I saw few requests for CRT animation.

Here we go. This is modified framework-res.apk from FD26 build.

I never recommend using framework from different build since framework is the foundation on what the whole OC is running.

1. http://d-h.st/Qb2 CRT animation on zip.

2. http://d-h.st/52R CRT animation off zip.

I'll update OP as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nevell:
Just figured out my my text msgs keep failing I think. It only does it when I'm connected via wifi. When I'm on 3G they send just fine. I never had this problem until FD24. All before when I was connected via wifi they sent just fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Would you mind show us why?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
Just sent a test text to Google with my wifi on and got a reply.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Just did a speed test.

I don't have to good of 4G at my house. Only 1 bar but got speed of 3.5 Mb down and 1.02 Mb up.

3G speed is little over 1 Mb down and about 0.95 up.

I think it's pretty decent and about same as with previous modems.

Actually 4G is little bit higher than previous but not too much thou.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigJPNut:
Did you know about the missing system/xbin files? I was wondering because, I still see the firstboot.sh file in data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Yes.

I took them out for testing purposes.

There are some questions/concerns about support those binaries getting by repacked kernel.

I'm trying to get to the bottom of this.

v.0.1.0 some of files taken out.

v.0.1.1 with all files.

Let see if there is any difference in preformance/speed/battery life.

Fist boot is not only for those files but also to install/flash /data/ folder with apps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jt_hatch:
Roger that -- no worries @ the gallery; as I mentioned I use quickpick instead anyway. I forgot about the wifi tether not being in the rom; I had it installed before but must have missed restoring it after I did the full wipe before tFD24.

And yah -- you were up hella late. I gave up even before sfhub posted the leak so I was very happily surprised to see tFD26 when I got up this morning!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigJPNut:
Ill download and try when its up. All I know is I was getting incredible battery life with them in on FD24 but, I was running the FD24 kernel with init.d support.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
FD02 repacked should have init.d support as well.

I pulled that kernel from Calkulin's rom since there was never a thread with that kernel.

I just need some help/guide to repack a kernel and would do it for every build but so far no one showed interest to walk me thru the process.

I did try to repack it and it went thru without any error messages. But kernel never load and phone is not booting. I don't know what I'm doing wrong.

I'll keep researching and trying and may be one day I'll be able to do it myself.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Just installed my first ICS build...

Well I am super happy so far with this, I was running Blazer 4.1 so a fair bit of the look is similar. Maybe it's the new shiny toy thing but it really feels faster now and looks awesome!

I restored all my apps using titanium with no fc's and all is working like gps,wifi,roam control,setcpu,etc...

I have 3 questions in regards to the fd02 cwm that was installed with this rom.

-Is it safe to use it flash mods and apps and such?

-Is it only when flashing ROMS that I need to mobile odin back to el26?

-What would be the correct way to nandroid this once I get it where I want and go back and forth between this my Blazer setup?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigJPNut:
Too bad Steadyhawkin apparently moved on, he would be the one to ask if you could track him down...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
1. I'm not sure I understand first question.

2. If you going between ICS builds you don't need to go back to EL26/EL29.

3. Previously I have tried to do NANG back up/restore between GB and ICS in CWM recovery and it worked fine but I haven't tried it for many leaks now since I never go back to GB so I'm not sure if it's still good and possible.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Agat, feel free to use any of those apks I posted in that folder for your future ROMs. I have a question.. is there a terminal command to confirm if init.d is functioning properly? I flashed the stock 26 kernel and used sfhub's auroroot option E to add init.d to it but I would like to confirm...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigJPNut:
I pushed the missing files from FD24 to system/xbin. Is that all I need to do? Or should I wait for updated version?

FYI: There were 5 files....rebooted all seems ok?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Pretty much that's all you need to do.

Everything else should be in place

Much appreciated...I will report back. I was just wondering if I should repush the firstboot.sh file to data again also? Apparently it disappears after reboot...

I'm using SManger to check/test script.

Here is the thread:

Check it out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jt_hatch:
JC -- would love a report on if you see much difference with the FD26 kernel vs. using the FD02 repack, esp. if using the autoroot package can get init.d support working. If it works well, it *might* be enough to get me to finally pony up for mobile odin and use it to hop back to the fd02 repack when I want to flash zips or make/restore a nandroid...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
It's a script that runs on first boot.

Updater script puts it in tmp folder, runs it and then delete.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
You can get mobile Odin for free. Search XDA main forums for it and it's free for members. I use it and it's never failed for me. There will be 2 .apks to install and it's called Mobile Odin lite.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Help me to get some help from anyone at least to disable signature verification in stock kernel.

In that case we all can keep a FD02 repacked (or any other repacked) kernel on sd card and run stock kernel. At any moment we will be able to flash repacked kernel zip file for back up/restore purposes.

I'm on end of my rope here but I'm willing to invest time and effort to learn how to and provide you with modified kernel for any and every build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I will be checking exactly that out over the next couple of hours. If the init.d is working on stock kernel (it did on FD19) then I will only use Rogue for nands or flashing until its dialed in from source

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yeah the autoroot option E then option E again is easy to run but last time I confirmed it worked by running Odex Me. I am not going to run that on this setup because it made the inverted Talk disappear on 24

This is why I say this modem sucks. On FD24 I was getting 1.5mbps download on 3G average

Here is what I was getting on FD24
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
Modem has nothing to do with rom and you can flash any modem that works good in your area. It depends very much on sprint service and it might be different for some parts of the country.

Test few modems and see which one performs best for you and your set up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Nevell:
I said that this modem sucks. Not the ROM check my post at around post 40 something. I said this modem sucks -_- I'm going to reflash FD24 modem ^_^
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Adding to Agat's comment, I don't believe speedtest.net result.

There are too many variance to get the right data. If you test it now, you may get the difference result.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I didn't say you complaint about rom.

Just was suggesting to try different setting to find the best one and wanted to say that it won't change anything in rom performance or settings thus "has nothing to do with rom".

Wasn't trying to be defensive or anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neudof:
Can we flash them?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
I agree with you about variances but do you have a better method in mind.

I have tried few different speed test apps from play store and all give very different results.

I would like to have a half way decent method to get a results we can somehow trust or relay on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anthony67:
They need to be pushed...I used ES Explorer to move them from SD card to sys/xbin.

Not too good but didn't drained 75% in 7 hours.

If you data is from any of the previous ICS builds you can restore data.

OK, I wrote a test script to give a "Test OK" message on boot. This is using stock FD26 kernel with init.d added through sfhub's Auroroot. It looks like it is working just fine so Agat's script will work with stock kernel adding init.d...

Has anybody had issues uploading videos to Facebook? I noticed it on FD24 and now 26. If I upload a video, it either steals it from my sd or makes it not playable anymore from phone.

Thanks Agat. That's kind of a tricky one to push. If you extract it with Root Explorer you have to navigate to SD card/SpeedSoftware/extracted folder to find the video folder to copy/paste

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agat63:
With this zip you don't have to anymore.

It will flash the animation where it suppose to go.

The problem is that I did delete the video folder from /system/media/ so you would have to create it first and that create the shutdown folder inside it and than push the shutdown.qmg file.

So I decided to make this zip file to save users time and effort.:D

BTW it fits great with rom and bootanimation.
