That WORKED!

Did exactly what you said, and it worked.

For future reference for others wondering:

Visit the blog

[(REPLACE "XX" with "tt") hxxp://randomkings.wordpress.com/android/samsung-epic-4g/gingerbread-2/ ]

Read under Installation Steps, you'll see Optional Customization all the info you'll need is right there.

Download the options.cfg file, open with notepad - edit to your preference, and send it to sdcard/clockworkmod/(paste-options.cfg in under backups) you'll be all set. Go into CWM Recovery and install from zip as you normally would.

Thanks so much for the tip, and helping me out!

:D

Woooo!

no prob, I ran into the exact same thing this morning so i had recent experience. have fun! :-D

oh one thing worth mentioning: RandomKing has released ThunderHawk V now. Interestingly, it carries a label saying FC09 but it's still actually using EL30.

I believe the reason behind that is to cut down on the "Install update" messages coming from Samsprint. He has started a new thread for ThunderHawk V in the dev forums.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
It is FC09 just the kernel is EL30.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jdelano:

ah ok thanks, i think i read that earlier today but apparently it didn't sink in. that will teach me to read XDA from work..and actually try to pay attention to work. ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
AKA Kenfuscious as well...LOL.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
I've just uploaded a newer version. Don't flash it if you already have it working, but this is no longer a problem. :D

Yup. Most people don't seem to know, but you can use almost any Gingerbread Kernel without issue. But I'll be adding in an FC09 kernel soon enough thanks to Bbelos. :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MattSF:
Great news and awesome news. thanks, RK!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RandomKing:
Just thought I'd add, Bbelos gave me a custom FC09 kernel that's linked in my thread now as well. :D
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
It is up in development.
[HTC Salsa] chris...:
You should work on fixing this issue

I'll test it out once I can connect to wifi
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
I've have found on other phones that different area ruu allow wifi and others don't. This is a UK based one. It may work in uk, may not but I will attend to as soon as I can like I always do. I ask for tests and feedback to find errors, all I ask iis try it.......find errors etc, posy em up.....then rrestore your own till I rectify it again.

Wasn't me............ ;-)

Version 4 requires a good hearty trial run!
[HTC Salsa] kanded:
you're the next dev here, you can count on us, to test your rom, and to share wht do's and dont's.

anyway, i wonder if the on off buttons will have reboot/recovery option. and the screenshot thing. or maybe torch flashlight. does it smthing to do with script or just a usual apk that is put in system/app ?

.. waiting for the next stage, mate.
[HTC Salsa] razer1224:
nice work bigbear! and what about the oc kernel is it gonna release or might take couple of days and months
[HTC Salsa] kanded:
i like this one. good progress, man. like this.
[HTC Salsa] godsgreat_87:
Good progress!

First of all . Thanks a lot for helping us have one more option of custom ROM.

Hope to see Sense 3.5 soon.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
version 5 is up
[HTC Salsa] sakisuren:
I think BigBear should change his name as BigBeast :p . Making versions damn fast
[HTC Salsa] chris...:
I should try it out while someone is actively working on it

Can install this ROM over the top of thing ROM?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
No lol,even if u tried this rom will wipe your data anyway.....well its should. But as with all Roms.....always triple wipe!

Wasn't me............ ;-)
[HTC Salsa] chris...:
But once installed I can upgrade with just a cache wipe
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
i have advised you not too....unknown problems happen when u don't wipe everything prior to flashing a new rom..
[HTC Salsa] kanded:
yes you can if you want to harm your baby. no, its wise. flash in cwm. do wipe data. wipe cache. and in advance, wipe dalvik cache.

then flash this rom.

[BUG]Music doesnt work in V7!! and can u try to change the browser google always loads tiny for me! :P and how can i use the beats audio which u installed?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
beats is for music quality..u will hear a differnece overall but u need proper beats headphones for the best quality.

ok music will be attended too

i may add dolphin browser into it...seems its adaptable for most people and i use it quite often anyway
[HTC Salsa] Raneet:
Anyway to fix that? Cz it force closes even after fresh flashing.. :P
[HTC Salsa] SteveBenz:
to my knowledge it's the ROM itself, can't fix it, only dev can
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
the wifihotspot seems to be incompatible, i am working to fix this, i offered up another app to see if its working...another wifi hotspot app
[HTC Salsa] SteveBenz:
if that's the one you gave me, I forgot to tell you it doesn't work, nothing changes, the name and pass all stay the same
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:

[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
I have a V12 sitting here, needs a few tweaks etc, but i'm thinking of dropping ARC or HOLO in favor of 1 custom launcher.

I want to know who's using what and which they prefer.

I'm adding a Poll up in first post please go and select which one you are using.

It will include other roms, just to give me an idea.

Is there any way to fix non working wifi in V2? Its stock look, but wifi is not working for me up to V4 which looks different and my women dont like it
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
No because I swapped from gb to EU you will have to use later versions as stated in the changelog

BigBear is using Xparent Tapatalk Purple
[HTC Salsa] darow:
GB or EU doesnt matter. Is there any way to get a stock look with a working wifi and root? It woudnt be a problem if I could flash stock and then root it but everytime Ive got error from flasher about bootloader or wrong flasher, depends on RUU image which Ive used (tried O2 UK and EU)

Anyone could help me?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
I'm afraid your wrong there, the reason I swapped from GB to EU is because of the wifi. EU rom allows all wifi to work Inc tether. GB is limited to uk only and has a tendancy to fail on occasions. This has been confirmed when I origanlly built the rom itself. Thus the reason why it was swapped over.

As for wanting stock look. Sorry. I built this rom the way I felt it looks and it will stay that way. I don't like it when people ask for a custom rom to be stockified again because they don't like it, this has been asked before and I refused as it took ages tto get the effects I did.

If you chosen the way of root and custom then your choices are given on the boards. Please do not ask for a Dev to stock there rom to suit your needs its not fair, you either take what we offer or don't do this at all. If root was all you wanted then that's all you shoukd have done. If you have been forced to use custom roms due to a phone or user error then I'm am sorry but you get what you get.

Sorry if it sounds rude or obnoxious but its only fair. We as xda users and developers do this for free in our own time. Provide valuable resources and help for nothing. In return a thanks and gratitude is all we want. Not requests or demands to change stuff.

[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
If you really are desperate for a stock root rom. I can build you one. But it won't be done till the weekend. But this will only be done for a reason. If you wish this to happen please say yes or no by the end of the day please.

Dear BigBear;

Im not asking for any customization made for me or anything which including any integration to any of your roms, Im simply trying to flash stock again and looks like you are the person with enough knowlegge to help me. Never had any HTC before, and at this point its looks like flashing stock impossible. Ive unlock bootloader (This included some RUU flashing hrom htcdev) and all probably because of this. Relocking wont help and I dont know what to do.

If you are unable to help, dont want to, thats okay. Ive messed it up, not your fault and not your problem and Ill live with that. Better to try and get negative answer than dont ask at all. EOT

regards

D
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
its very difficult to flash stock ruu again, i know i have tried. in this case the only way is a custom rom.

relocking won't do anything, and yes your probably right, when we updated our hboot it may have stopped the ability to redo the ruu again.

i can help, the only quick way is a custom. if you want me to i will make a new one stock with nothing changed apart from root access and a few stock apps removed and added. thi will give other the ability to stay the way they want it to be.

if you want it that is.............
[HTC Salsa] darow:
Any custom "stock" would be great. Doesnt matter if that would be EU (preffered) or GB. No need for any modifications or root. Just the quickest way to get it. If there is any way to "take it out" from RUU file I can do it myself with your guidance. Ive already tried "fastboot flash system system.img" extracted from RUU, but it had some strange graphical glithes and doesnt look good. If you can do it for me you can have a paypal 4 pack of lager :)

Cheers
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Flashing parts of a rom don't help as your in essence mixing a rom from different parts.As you have found it has some weird effects lol, And no its complicated and unfortunately it will come with root regardless or it wouldn't work. it will make a stock but with root as that's how it comes. if i try to remove root then there's a high chance of some serious errors occurring. root also enables you to use data2sd in the future for internal memory.

What RUU is your home region? i can make one from my collection as close to your base RUU as i can.

I will set to work later tonight and it should be ready after Ive tested it Sunday hopefully.
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
double post
[HTC Salsa] darow:
As your base is EU, it would be the best choice for me as well.

Thank you

for those having issues with the new facebook, i have managed to get it working on this so i will be releasing v12 and v3 arc/holo soon. all recent updates will be included in the rom.

I like ur Rom..but I want normalv status bar not transparent.how to make status bar to default setting?
[HTC Salsa] yuva0103:
Thinking of flashing your V3 holo ROM. I'm bit confused of permission which has to be set. Where I can change permission for app in recovery or somthing..?

:confused:
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
erm lol without me redoing the whole rom again lol as i would have to re modify the original files then redo the theming, just to set normal bar..

erm what for? why do you need to set permissions?
[HTC Salsa] yuva0103:
You asked to set permissions for beats audio nd HTCmusic app...
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
you don't need to set permissions those are already included in the roms, all you gotta do is wipe flash and use the rom... nothing else lol

Hey Big bear.. I have seriously had no luck in reverting to original RUU or managing to get Facebook working on your stock time so I thought what the heck and I installed v8 Rom from this series of roms and boy have I been impressed... Absolutly everything is working beautifully...

Although I really wanted it to be exactly like original sense.... Is there any way I can change the boot animation to quietly brilliant and change the notifications to look like normal sense please? :). Any help appreciated!
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Why use v8 lol, that's outdated lol v11 is better. Basically what your asking is have my rom in stock setup....hmmmm not really fair lol, I put time making as it is lol. I will have a look as it means going back to basic getting the stuff the way you want it...

To change it back isn't easy...if I can sort it ill try help you do it....what's wrong with boot animation anyway lol

but I prefer a sense look.. so i kept with v8..

but its no biggy.. thanks anyway...

As of yet has there been an overclockable kernal? Because i would like to play some high end games :silly:lol
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
if you were to sell the phone on you would have to state is was custom anyway lol

there is no OC Kernel yet, probably won't be for a long time unless we can get some one to do it.

hey erm...im having some problems in installing the v12 rom..;( i dontk now why but i followed the instructions properly (even though i know the normal precedure) but after the rom is installed i hit reboot in cwm and it just stays on the htc screen forever!!(until battery dies lol) but it dosnt move on from that... im seriously starting to think there is something wrong with my phone.(different version of model) but it is C510E...

any help will be appreciated ;):fingers-crossed:

OK new design coming soon, with some serious transparency mods inc in V12a

Note to all users, i have removed Facebook 2.0 from the rom as it requires to be installed as a sd card application. i did try to use it as system but it caused fc's constantly so its gone! you may install it yourself but move to sd card. Sorry its not my choice but stupid Facebook's idea. I've found Fb 2.0 is and update only and cannot be integrated or installed as a system app, the idea is it stays as an update only which can be removed etc.

A little teaser!

OK ive added a little teaser screenie for you...there are way more mods than what u see! this is the start of it!

ok..fine..Whatever it is..a very good job..

couple of things i always wondered if we could?

Any Rom i install i always end up installing a better SMS app, Contact App and Dialer app coz i hate the HTC sms, contact and dailer apps. Can we have a better SMS, Contact, Dialer app preinstalled in the rom this time? so that it will even save on the memory as i wont need to have 2 apps for everything?
[HTC Salsa] BigBearEvo:
Over trieed installing many SMS and dialers like gosms. I use iphonesms right now. Rocketdial etc. Most won't alllow system install as fresh but will allow to be moved to system afterwards.

Problem with most stock SMS and dialeers is they are limited lol. I've been using rocketdial pro for ages....even paid for it because I liked it so much. SMS apps lately are crap beyond belief. I can certainly add another in but the system one cannot be removed only suppressed by the secondary app. So u will essentially have what you do now.

I w-uld suggest which eever secondary app u like try and move it to the system using link2sd or titanium backup, it will run faster and suppress the normal app better.

If I could what ones wwoukd you prefer....have to be free apps mind. And handcent or gosms will not work.

I have been using Pansi SMS and exDialer. Booth are simple and clean for me. Have not tried IPHONESMS. its upto you. I would suggest if you could install any of your own sms, contact and dailer app whichever u feel is the best and give us the ROM.

ok ill try and add them in on my next test run...can you send me a copy of exdialer plz? i have pansi used that awhile ago.

v13 is up. please don't whinge about Facebook. ive added 1.9.9 not 2.0. if it still won't work then try removing it completely and reinstalling from the market and move it to the sdcard!

It isn't my fault. its theirs.

Feel ffree to comment as normal. A friend has helped give this new life with the awesome work hes given me. *Bows to fshami*

let the comments begin!

you will notice an app called S2E

This is similar to data2sd but works like this.

install what you want. open the app. select data and apps only DO NOT SELECT CACHES!

once set.

My suggestion is at least once a day after there's new data added to open S2E and reboot...this moves it again freeing up more space.
