It might be the location i am in in this hotel...but i dunno. Ill report back later, but i am having a horrible time maintaining a stable signal. Ive tried custom prls, different modems & the signal still jumps around like crazy. Text messages are not going through...updating profile does nothing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfin79:
Menu/settings/about phone to see if you baseband version is fd26 if you can get prl and profile to update I would say your good it flashed properly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Villain123:
Yes, I moved all the applications possible to my sd card and then flashed a modified kernel and all the apps that had been moved to the sd card were not showing as installed. I flashed back to the stock kernel and there they were.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wildside84:
is this safe to use coming from gb? ive already bricked once, would like to avoid it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] moonsbabe:
hiding out here waiting for OTA!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Yes, flashing through odin is quite safe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syphex:
Found an interesting bug today. If your phone is on vibrate and your on a call and a text message comes in it blares the text message loudly in your ear.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
If you don't push both buttons at the same time it will just reboot the phone. If your phone is in a case it can hamper the ability to accurately hit both buttons properly. I always pop mine out of the case to be sure.

Recovery is power + volume up (hold until you see the Samsung logo then release)

Odin is power + volume down (hold until you see the warning come up then press volume up)

The past 2 nights, the clock widget has froze. The clock is still right in the top corner so it's not a network issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igerald904:
hey sfhub is there any news on a newer version coming out soon and why is it that the only widget not working is the social hub?

Thanks in advance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d_willia:
I've tried a few ICS leaks here and there, but always found some problem. This one seems very stable. I started from EK02 and kept all my data in place for the upgrade. The only problem I saw was with the Contacts app freezing. Clearing the cache for the Contacts Storage app fixed the issue. Battery life was terrible on the first day, but between the initial syncs and updates, etc. and the novelty factor, that is to be expected. Today looks much better. No difference in reception so far.

Nicely done, sfhub.

Wallpaper Issue

Has anyone else noticed the launcher labeled "Launcher" under applications causing wallpapers for the home screen to be much larger than they are causing them to be cutoff and blurry? My lock screen walpaper looks fine, it is just the home screen.

Since I set the launcher labeled "Launcher" under applications as default the only work around I figured out is to go into applications under all applications, open the Launcher application and clear defaults. Then hit the home button and select TWLauncher, it will load and the home screen wallpaper will look like it should, hit the home button again, check the box for use as default and select Launcher. This will make the wallpaper look correct, but does not seem to fix it for good. Eventually it goes back to looking incorrect. I am wondering if anyone has a permenant solution?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Crucifixion:
Battery is awful on this. Had it unplugged for 2 hours had done nothing with it lost 10%
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
It takes a little while to set in, also you might have stuff syncing in the background like facebook or picasa that is killing battery. I user better battery stats and the task manager to identify useless battery draining stuff Here are a few things I got rid of to get better battery life. Currently at 22+ hours and 40% with normal use

digitalclock

mediahub

samsungwidget_news

samsungwidget_programmonitor

samsungwidget_stockclock

samsungwidget_weatherclock

socialhub

socialhubwidget

I am using beautiful widgets for my homescreen clock and weather but for those not using weather you can kill the accuweather apk too

Also removed Sprint radio, nova and a few other worthless Sprint apps. Kept Sprint TV

Also log out of google talk if you are not using it, dont keep 4g, bluetooth, gps,wifi etc on when not using
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CNDow:
Good advise for any ROM Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
Sure thing CNDow as a previous Samsung Moment owner I had to get rid many useless system apps for the thing to even work properly. I also use a 3g toggle widget called data enabler if I know I am in a really crappy signal area or roaming. Just toggle check email or whatever and toggle off. Keeps my phone alive on a single charge all day when I have to go work at remote sites and works great with all of the ics leaks so far. Its in market data enabler by farproc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vivix729:
This is the first leak that I'm having major problems with. GPS not working and LOS is crazy (never had this issue before, no wonder people are *****ing so much about it). I'll try to re flash tonight to make sure it's not a bad flash.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crusifier:
I've been upgrading to each of the new releases since FD02 and this one by far is the most stable. I haven't had any issues at all. on FD10 I tried using the NODATA version and that caused me issues. Once I used the "Reset user data" package, everything has been fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wildside84:
stuck on data img again...the first time i bricked i had to send it to samsung, they sent it back and it was fixed. i tried flashing this and now im back to a bricked phone. i feel incredibly stupid right now.

edit: flashed back to el 29 and it worked. why cant i flash ics?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Are you using the full restore?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wildside84:
yes
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
I'd try re-downloading the zipped exe file(s) and check the md5 hash and make sure they are complete. If you were able to flash back to EL29 I am assuming you used sfhub's 'full restore' rooted and not some one elses. You should be able to flash to FD26 using the same method. sfhub's one-click Odin's are the most bullet proof of rooting techniques there are.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wildside84:
yes i used sfhub's full restore rooted and it worked seamlessly. i guess ill try re-downloading it, but now im scared to try it and then not be able to go back to el 29 if it doesn't work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
Just reboot into Odin again and keep trying. Like 3 more times. I remember i had to do that once and change which port i put my USB cable in
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Could be port or USB cable problems.

ODIN doesn't cause /data bricks. It only tells you after the fact there is a problem with the /data partition. The actual cause is doing certain operations with ICS-based kernel and custom recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lloway21:
Mine still says EL29 how do I change it ???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kchitown1977:
Can I OC back to stock fd26 from agat's themed and tweaked fd 26
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lloway21:
Sooo, if I install this I can't get future ota updates ???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Only way you will get future OTA updates is if you stick with 'stock rooted ROM AND Stock Kernel' Otherwise the samsung signature/compliance check will fail. But that shouldn't stop you from enjoying what's here. Also read through sfhub's posts (his signature is loaded!). His Autoroot package has a 'perform OTA Compliance Check' you can use too. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=19269886&postcount=2 Awesome utility so many options I don't think most use simply because they won't read and learn. You will see most people here use his one-clicks to Odin back and forth before doing anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Yes, but use the Full version as that rom is deodexed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kchitown1977:
What modem/kernel do you suggest when back on stock fd26
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Everyone's experience is a bit different. My opinion is start with stock for a day so you can't get a feel for battery life, gps, radio, and overall smoothness. Then if it isn't statisfying, try going back through previous modem versions. Try them for a few hours and a few reboots before you draw any conclusions.

I wouldn't change the kernel unless you need to for CWM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arehm:
What's the best way to remove these apps?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Rom toolbox - app manager
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Suggest using Titanium backup to freeze them first, them removing them after a few days if your specific usage patterns are unaffected.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I use the sdx stock app remover you can backup the apk then remove just like titanium backup does
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arehm:
Running EL29 Stock Rooted.

Anyone know why Rom Toolbox hangs forever when it tries to uninstall these apps?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Unibrow:
I was having a lot of force close issues, I had flashed fd26 over the current firmware without a data wipe. Factory data reset fixed a lot of issues. The only issues I am having is with a few games that just won't run (fieldrunners, peggle and something else I can't remember atm) and lock up after a few seconds into playing. The other issue is that while listening to Pandora, while docked to the infuse car dock, the talk command app becomes useless. Instead of Pandora muting it plays through the headset and commands aren't working correctly. Overall though it's pretty nice.

*EDIT apparently the voice command is working perfectly fine. I thought I had used it since wiping data but apparently hadn't. Only issue I've been having is the incompatibility with certain games locking up. Working pretty well otherwise
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wildside84:
got it to work this time, thanks guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jase33:
I finally moved up to FD26 today. So here is a flashable zip to theme the status bar, the settings menu and mms. It is a LITE theme, only images, no xml edits. But since most of us are not on these leaks very long, it helps ease the pain. This theme is for this rom only, and it must be odexed. Yes, you can theme a odexed rom. So you can do one of the following to get this thing running on your phone;

1 - replace the kernel with a repack one from sfhub

2- if you have CWM already, great...just flash it

3 - you can unzip the individual apk files and push with ADB (or like program)

4 - unzip the apk's and copy & paste to system/app with root explorer and set permissions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Had a little free time today so put together some FD26 repacks (added to the 2nd post of the FD26 ODIN OneClick thread)

Unlocked Recovery is 100% stock except for 1 change. recovery is unlocked so it will ignore signatures. This allows you to flash themes and ROMs using stock recovery. You can be assured this will perform exactly the same as stock kernel because recovery is not used when android is running and all startup scripts are stock.

Plus has the following: unlocked recovery, init.d support, custom bootanimation, usb mass storage, adb-root enabled when booted into recovery

These do NOT include CWM only unlocked stock recovery.

[CWM] refers to the delivery format (update.zip) meant to be flashed in CWM (or unlocked recovery)

b7) [CWM] Repack - FD26 Kernel (Unlocked Recovery) [Mirror1 / Mirror2] [MD5: 10007e2d0e2a3327d5185b4f1e4c0ef0 / Size: 6,029,845]

b8) [CWM] Repack - FD26 Kernel (Plus) [Mirror1 / Mirror2] [MD5: da3a98a65211106c32cc0481655a8149 / Size: 6,015,213]

- Plus = unlocked recovery, initd, bootanim, usb-ms, adb-root
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Nice sfhub. I saw some upload activity on the bandwidth graph and im like hmmm whats that :p. Looks like you have been brewing quietly over there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Cjunior:
so i just want to make sure i can use this coming out of any rom correct i just have to odin and run that is it ?

or we have to go true all the prossess of flashing the el26 kernel before we do that?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] weboide:
Signal is quite random with FD26... It goes up and down. And my bluetooth earset does not pair.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Unibrow:
Anyone having issues with the device just not waking when pressing the power button? Not sure if its setcpu or the fact I monkeyed with the camera sound files. I'm thinking it might be the latter as I have had setcpu working for a few days and thus only started yesterday after I changed the names of the camera shutter sound.

Removing setcpu seems to have fixed the issue, strange it worked fine at first.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
Not one to ever buy into the whole each modem is different thing but it seems quite a few people, myself included has had issues with FD26 modem. I have gotten LOS a couple times myself and just this morning switched back to a different modem. So my bet would be for you to try a different modem like EL26 or EL29 which seems to be popular with everyone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] arehm:
So Rom Toolbox always hung when removing apps, so I used the other recommended app. All seemed well, but now the Play Store is constantly crashing. I've reloaded the EL29 no data, cleared play store cache. Nothing seems to work. I wonder if I've somehow removed something I should not have. Anyone know what dependencies the play store has?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
Thanks, any chance you can put an ODIN version so that I don't have to push CWM to my phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
The process I used to test installation is use Auto Root to install FD02+CWM-Rogue, then boot into recovery and run the update.zip for the repacked FD26 kernels.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
I would suggest pulling the zImage out of the update.zip and installing using Mobile ODIN or Auto Root with Generic zImage.

However if you really want it, I put together ODIN .tar.md5 formats (I won't be putting these in post #2):

ODIN FD26 Repacks [Unlocked / Plus]

These are 7zip self-extractors, so double-click on windows to extract or use zArchiver on Android.

If you flash in traditional ODIN, they WILL trigger the yellow triangle and increment the flash count (flashing in Mobile ODIN won't do that). Use USB jig or triangle away to reset if you care.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Funny you mentioned that... I had been running agat's tFD26_v0.1.0 Rooted (Odexed version) for a week now with setcpu running at 1000max. Several days ago I swapped in the fd24 kernel that DataHawg re-pkg'd in a zip. For two days straight I would I would find my phone would not wake up when I got to work (having pulled it from the charger right before I left). A battery pull fixed it but after I disabled the underclocking it seems fine now. I might put the fd02 repack back in and see if I can reproduce the events again when I get the chance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
Thanks, worked great with Mobile Odin. My only issue was all my apps installed on SD were no longer available. I remember that Calkulin created a kernel that allowed you to flash (without signature) and still allowed for apps to be installed on SD. Is this possible with your Kernel Plus?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RustedRoot:
FWIW, I flashed your Plus Repack over Agat's odexed FD26 (with Steady's FD02 CWM repack). No problems. This kernel is exactly what I wanted (sans ability to nand backup) -- to be able to run FD26 across the board AND flash through recovery. Thanks sf, once again you fill a necessary void.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
It is possible if you tell me what the mount point you require is called.

The current kernel works exactly the same as stock regarding mount points. It doesn't change anything in that respect, so my guess is when you installed your apps, the mount points were different than stock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
All I do is go through Settings -> Application -> On SD Card and pick the Move to SD option. Can you tell me how to tell what mount point I am using?

Once I put the stock kernel back with mobile odin I could use my apps on SD again. Maybe I did something wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
How about you just point me to where I can download the kernel you are currently using or are you saying you are using a pure stock kernel? Sometimes people say stock, but they only mean the kernel portion and they've made changes in the initramfs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] puertoblack2003:
good job ;) sfhub exactly what i needed...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
I appreciate your help. I am using the following kernel from your post #2.

b2) [ODIN] FD26 Kernel [Mirror1 / Mirror2] [MD5: d4353dec989690c9779db7b07ee83d46 / Size: 6,072,738]

So that should be stock, correct? Before I flashed your Kernel Plus, I was using the kernel that was included in your oneclick in post #1.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Yes, that is a stock kernel, completely untouched.

I'm curious does the Unlocked Recovery version perform any different. That has no changes except replacing one binary which isn't used in Android.

Also, is it all apps, or only some moved apps that aren't working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
I'm stuck in boot loop and just want to get back to stock. I can place in ODIN mode and flash via odin and everything will be cool, right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Yup
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Yes, you can try the NoData version if you want a chance to preserve your data, but if it doesn't work, try the Full version.

If you have no need to preserve your data and/or already have backups, just do the Full version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
Cool. In the process of preserve data now...we'll see. If no go, I'll try no data.

When I downloaded the file it actually opens up a different ODIN window that im used to (1.7) huh...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Yeah. It's not the same odin where you choose PDA or phone, etc. It's solely for downloading ROM built into it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheDudeAbides:
15 min on the boot 4G logo..any ideas?

---------- Post added at 01:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:13 PM ----------

Quick update. After boot loop, then 30 min of 4G logo, I installed the wipe data option and everything is good to go :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Yes boot loop happens from time to time with the no data option. No need to flash over the wipe option, just pull battery, insert battery go to recovery do a wipedata factory reset wipe cache then reboot. problem solved.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dubez:
for some reason I can't connect to wifi with fd26. Any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Anyone besides me actually running stock rooted on this and liking it when compared to aokp or cm9?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stevetrooper:
Sorry been timed up all day, will test with the Unlocked Recovery version and report back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I went from Stock Rooted FD26 to CM9A3 and found joy I seriously doubted existed. Until i start using some of my other apps again i might get driven back who knows. Only issue I have found in my first day is sometimes in Netflix when scrolling to a time the video stops playing.

FD26 is pretty damn good and CM9A3 isnt too bad.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kchitown1977:
You were able to switch, did you have to go back to el26? If no did you have any issues flashing from fd26 cm9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Hows your battery on cm9?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
I flashed the EL26 kernel only.

Day 1 wasn't bad Day 2 I was busy at work really didnt use it much.

54% left at 10 hours, hour of screen on time. My usual days have at least 2 hours unless im going crazy and murdering the battery. 4G mostly web browsing and a little remote desktop. Wifi was left on all day not sure how much drain that has on this phone. First 4 hours took it down to 92%. A little steep for most of you guys.

Yall would probably think it was horrible. But I consider lasting 16 hours with moderate use to be Normal and if you can't get to a charger after 16 hours you must be one tired person. From EK02 through the better ICS leaks I get 6 hours of near constant use remoting into my server doing config changes. 8 - 12 hours of moderate use are normal. My days off on EL29 were like 21 hours but on one of the FD's I was even getting 30-31 hours of standby + light use.

Minor update - Standby of course its at 50% now 14.5 hours in. Don't seem to be bleeding too much at home on wifi in standby.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igerald904:
???

It seems like the leaks have slowed down and any info about release hasn't showed its face either.well i would like something, cause fd26 isn't that good i have consistant freezing and restarts running dark legends, but whats crazy is that i can run it perfectly on cm9 A3 no problem.

---------- Post added at 08:58 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:56 AM ----------

also i get better battery on cm9 than i do with fd26 i use fd26 modem with the fd10 kernel works like butter.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Same here but without root, Just Stock FD26 and Loving it more than AOKP and CM9. Don't get me wrong I love AOKP and CM9 but for some reason besides problems with emmc>external SD not mounting at boot or unmounting randomly and some FC's with some apps I hate the constant 1x geez I decided go back to Stock FD26, right now went back to EK02 then OTA update to EL29 cause the EL29 .tars that sfhub provided for some reason are misbehaving after a few hours of usage. :confused:

---------- Post added at 03:46 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:40 PM ----------

http://device.sprintpcs.com/Samsung/SPH-D710/FE07.rdf

FE07 is out and looks like Final (maybe). Told ya guys a few days ago that FD26 won't be final but FD30 - FE07 Will (maybe). and there you have it. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Supposedly FE09 is coming Wednesday..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tmeader:
They've moved to a new Android version with this one ("4.0.4" instead of "4.0.3" for all the previous leaks), so I'd guess there will be AT LEAST one more after this one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igerald904:
I know sfhub will get his hands on it so we can all taste the goodness
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tinpaul:
I don't know about that, i think this would have been out by now or he's waiting for FE09, but i could be wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
It's never posted immediately after. It's usually posted within a few hours or up to a few days after the rdf is released.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sbeekman:
Probably be about 1030pm when we see it guys.... I'm hoping sooner idk it could be final but I'm assuming one more leak just a guys fingers crossed!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igerald904:
Me too its close to 10:30 so lets see if your guess is right both fingers crossed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sbeekman:
He hasn't skipped one leak yet why would he start now he might have a life besides xda lol xda has been my girlfriend and mistress lately lol so idk maybe I'm wrong..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] batting1000:
Everytime someone posts here I get excited because it has the same title pretty much as what the FE07 one will have
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DroidBabe:
How do you remove the search bar from the homescreen. I cant find that option in settings. :confused:

I tried that and it didnt work. It just disables the search feature from working.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kchitown1977:
Before and After disabled Google search
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DroidBabe:
I got it working. I just had to reboot. :D thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kchitown1977:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Just open Sprint ID and choose My ID= ICS or GB Stock Launcher and Samsung= For TWiz Launcher. Yeap is that simple.
