Just used brand new install of mobile odin to flash the Stock EL26 CWM kernel from the kernel db, was a good dl, and damn near bricked my phone, took me 5 tries and almost 10 mins to get phone into odin mode, the thing just kept rebooting. I flashed while on Calk's E4GT 2 v1.4, So this makes 2 bad flashes while trying to flash this rom, my last attempt resulted in a brick, even though i followed all the steps to the letter, i think im going to call it quits on hydra, sadly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I'm having the same issue today since I haven't been connected to Wi-Fi. I noticed it only happens on 3g.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Digitaltigre:
This rom is the truth. Battery life isn't great but I'm used to living with that. I love having a navigation bar over all apps tablet style.

Has anyone found a way to make gtalk look decent though? That's probably the only thing bugging me. I didn't like the capacitive buttons staying on so I turned them off altogether.

Thanks team Venum!

Since cyanogen mod 9 updated version 4. Is it possible that we will see an update sometimes in the future?

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.

Thank you for answering my question. The new cyanogen mod does not play well in tablet mode. But what do like about it is the ability to save pictures by default onto your external sdcard.

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JsVerbal:
Are you downloading to a pc or your phone? Are you checking MD5? If you ever get stuck in a boot loop, you need to stop the loop by pulling the battery BEFORE trying to get into Odin mode. This Rom has had a lot of downloads and you are the only one to brick so I would say something went wrong with your flashing process.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tt281gt:
You SURE can!

Steps:

Download newest kernel [FE16] and save on SD CARD: http://70.174.60.11:40/~tcp/Kernels/

Odin/Mobile Odin EL26CWM : http://www.mediafire.com/?hkydca9ob98z89m

When phone restarts hold VolUP + power until recovery is loaded.

Wipe Cache/Dalvik Cache

Flash New Kernel

Reboot

Are you flashing a kernel with the rom? If so make sure it is NOT a TouchWiz kernel [You need AOSP].
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] manufan721:
I gotta back up verbal on this one, anytime you have an issue like this make sure to try downloading it to PC then transfer it to SD card before giving up on being able to flash.especially when it comes to flashing a great rom like this, the only thing it doesn't beat hands down is the ice rom, have you seen that boot animation? Its crazy man..lol

quick question... :p putting the flame suit on. What's the safest UC level i can go to without going into a bootloop...our locking up the phone? Battery life is average but i know it can better :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
Does the kernel have the ability to undervolt without source code.

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
1Ghz. Below that you'll see lots of problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
A little screenie...just cause i feel like a proud papa with this rom. Haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
I obviously like the clean look. Since I use my hard keys I just use the one nav button. I also have 2 invisible circle launchers. One in each of the bottom right corners
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
This is my screen shot as you can see I have extra on screen short cuts so, I can access my programs at the speed of a sonic rainboom. So not only is my Epic sleek and sexy but efficient too. Which makes me more productive.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
That sweet! I love the different options this thing has.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CJPRICO:
Don't know if its been asked before or mentioned but only problem I have is when phone locks and I unlock it to use it and I try to search on web or fb or anything to do with data, it just won't work I have to every time go to airplane mode or turn data off and back on to have data again. Its the only problem I'm having. Flashed newest kernel too and still same problem.

And just now tried to submit this message and had to turn data off and on again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
That's strange. Have u tried updating the radio?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CJPRICO:
Maybe that could be forgot to try that , do you have a link to the radios?

Hey I've got a couple things I'm trying to figure out. First is I keep getting an error when trying to purchase rom toolbox and also when downloading go launcher. I reset the dpi and followed the steps but still no dice. I just wanted to get some of the themed icons from go launcher.

I also am getting some "launcher not responding" stuff when I reboot mostly. Its no biggie. I just hit wait.

I deleted esperier and mi home hoping that would fix it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigpeng:
You gotta remove your google account, add it again and then go back into playstore and it'll work for purchases, as far as other questions, sorry I cant help you, not on ROM and when i was, i never experienced that.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ling4383:
fonts?

Started on caulks gingerbread,then went between that rom and mijjah's ics themed "goodness"and now hydra..no complaints at all..lovin this rom...quick question thow(tried searching and apologies if this has already been answered)but i know you can change font sizes but can u install font apk's and change the font altogether?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
I use rom toolbox to change font style. It works great on every font except for APHont Mod15 E2. That one will send you into boot loop on this rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
I use rom tool box to accomplish that.

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
OK so this didnt fix my issue of not being able to download go launcher or rom toolbox paid...any other suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
You already cleared data from it in the app manager? Sorry getting in on this a little late.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
I have had a lot of Play store errors with paid apps myself. Try clearing data/cache in google play store and google service framework, reboot and resign into gtalk. Go back to play store and try again. This has fixed the issue with me a few times, but has stopped fixing the issue for me. I have flashed 8 different ROMs today and none would let me purchase any paid apps. I even signed in on my girls phone to try and buy with no luck on my account, but hers can purchase. I think its either a sprint or google issue for me, but the fix might work for you.

Yeah I've tried it all. I may try deleting play today and redownloading. We'll see if that works.

This worked this time. I had deleted the data before in the dpi section but doing it in app manager worked. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
Glad to hear it. Anything else let us know :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thaprinze:
I think this may just be an underlying Android thing, because I've experienced it in multiple ROMs, but it's insanely annoying! When I'm listening to music, I have to turn the ringer and alarm completely off. If I don't, I could be sitting there blasting my music at work with my headphones on, and if I get a text message, it'll ring via the speaker phone, but my music will suddenly blast over the speaker phone too, for the duration of the ringtone. The other issue is that if I connect my phone to the car stereo, and I get a notification, the music volume is suddenly reduced until I either pause/skip the track, or I turn the volume down then back up. Anyone else experiencing this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
Well it worked for the downloading but not for the paid stuff. Sucks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
A work around is to purchase your software with the browser via the Android market.

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
Ya. I just purchased it over the computer. It would work either way. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
Your first problem mentioned is an across the board android. You can offset that by silencing your phone when playing music. That will make it to where it doesnt blast you. On the second question...What music player are you using? My music doesn't do that. Seems to me like there may be a setting enabled somewhere. If not then I'd erase data in app manager on it and maybe fix permissions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
Venom, just wondering if we'll see some more love on this rom? Been getting a little antsy seeing all the goodness going on over at ice. I love this rom, but I kinda feel like I'm playing by myself over here.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Rest assured, Venum has quietly been brainstorming. The reason I picked up Ice is so he could focus on projects like this one. I can't say for sure what will be next because he ran a few really good ideas by me the other day. Venum just needed a few days off.

Ooo...I'm chomping at the bits here. Hey so I do have a question tho...I've tried pushing some of the holo themes stuff into the system/app. A lot of it would work but not the system UI. That was the part I was wanting to get. I love that red theme. Since you compiled this rom based on that, do u know what the hang up is there? Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Yes those blokes threw some lets say negating pngs in their work so people wouldn't steal it... you have to go file by file to find them (the system ui wont load with them in there)... took me hours to find and delete them and I even had their permission lol... And no I don't remember each one :mad:

Haha...yeah I went through several boot loops trying to figure out what worked and what didn't. I may take the time next week to work on it a little more, but I'm pretty comfy in my blue setup now.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thaprinze:
I have tested this again, and I am still having the issue. I use both Google Music and PowerAmp, and it behaves the same way on both. Start playing your music on either (or possibly any) music app, then send yourself a text or an email. The music will dim slightly to play the notification, then the music will remain at the lower volume until you turn the volume down and up again, or you skip tracks or pause then play again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] junkmayn:
Bro, I have no clue. I haven't noticed it on mine and haven't been in a place to be able to test it the last couple of days.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
What can't we have better int.d tweaks 4 our Rom that would improve our battery life.

Why doesn't our Rom have the fancy int.d tweaks that the Samsung Epic AOKP Rom have? My other phone is at 68% battery life after 20 hours, granted is all standby time but still that is better than what we are getting currently. Can somebody "please" take at look at the AOKP tweaks for the Samsung Epic. If you want me to save them in a zip file just let me know. If we could use it for our Rom in the future that would be sweet. Thank me if anybody agrees with me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Zip it up and send it to me. They are to different operating systems. But hey, I'll look at it...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
So, I bricked my last phone messin with this rom. I am not blaming anyone but myself, I am sincerely asking for help. I got a new one (white this time) and I reeeally like this rom. But, my question is... what kernel's can I flash over this rom ( ( ask because the link seems to be broken in the OP) is there a recovery I can use to flash with this rom? I basically just want to know what is the best recovery/kernel to use with this rom to be able to access my internal SD and transfer files and such. I dont want to brick again and I've searched for this question but just havent gotten the answer I need. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
Thank you for considering my request attached is the init.d file in a zip form. I will leave this to the experts. I can only help answer simple question like the one below.

Use the EL26 Odin just unzip the EL26 recovery and flash thru Odin. This is not a CWM file so don't flash thru CWM please unzip the Odin file and use odin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
Sorry but I don't understand what you mean completely
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
1. Download the EL26 recovery in my previous post.

2. Put your phone in download mode. By holding the power button and the down volume at the same time.

3. unzip the EL26 file that I placed in my previous post.

4. Place the extracted EL26 file in the pda slot of Odin.

5. Flash the EL26 file.

6. Put your phone into recovery mode by hold the power button and up volume button.

7. Find the location of your HyDrA rom and the latest google apps.

8. First flash the HyDra Rom and the flash gapps.

9. Reboot your phone and now your are done.

10. Enjoy your HyDrA rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
Sorry for the confusion but thats not what I meant :/ I know the process to flash the ROM, my question is, which recovery/kernel is compatible with the ROM after flashing. Since it gets rid of recovery after you flash. Example, is rogue FB27 ok to use with the ROM or FD26? Etc... Wich one is safe to use for flashing ect...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] killaphatboy:
Unzip the el26cwm zip above. The file to use with odin/mobile odin has the tar.md5 at the end.use mobile odin/odin to flash that kernel, hold power+volume up as soon as screen comes back on to boot into recovery to wipe and flash. This rom can only boot with AOSP kernels in the op.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
Ok thanks. The reason I asked is cause when I was on this ROM this morning and tried to flash el26.cmw via Odin the ROM would get past the galaxy boot but wouldn't get to the roms boot animation. So im confused why that wouldn't work. I tried both the cmw version of el26 and the acs version, both starting fresh and got nothin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
You must flash new roms with el26 or you can follow it up with an AOKP Kernel such as FE22 AOSP kernel or FE16 AOSP kernel etc. EL26 has the recovery but not the right kernel and FE22 has the right kernel but not the correct recovery. There is no all in one kernel and recovery for the AOSP and the AOKP roms. I hope this makes sense.

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
So if I want to flash I need one kernel and if I want the ROM to run correctly switch back to the other?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamice4u:
If you want to flash a modem you need the correct recovery and if you want the ROM to work you need the correct kernel. So if you are updating your modem you need EL26 to flash the modem and you need to flash the FE22 kernel afterward for your ROM to work correctly.

If I helped you out in any way please thank me. Thanks.

Thanks man. That's exactly what I needed to know. Much appreciated.
