[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
Having issues with my touch buttons. The light for them only comes on when I push them, not whenever I touch the screen, which is what I'm used to, and prefer.. any fixes?

(Was happening in Paranoid as well)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
thats just how it is on this aokp build. you can turn them off totally or time out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shadowkiller24:
What is the country tweak? I can't find it. I went back a few pages AND searched this thread. :( couldn't find it still
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
No fix to have it be the stock behaviour of timing out after screen touch?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thedarksavant:
I've searched and have not seen anyone mention scrollable widget issues. Does anyone else have scrollable widgets like Google+ flicker on scroll? It happens in Nova and the default launcher. Is there a setting to fix this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RCOVA:
Well would you look at that. Learn something new everyday :)

Any issue with using this as my workhorse daily rom? Just need 100% reliable Exchange, good battery life, and no FC's. Nothing fancy needed.

Everything seems good so far, but figure I would ask just in case.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kpierredev:
Am I the only one having three problems?

I love this rom!! But the 4g just turns off out of nowhere and sometimes it will randomly reboot. Is anyone else getting this issues??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skyungjae:
I'm having 4G issues as well. The only time I get random reboots is when the battery is reading incorrectly. I'll think I have like 50%+ then it'll reboot and say I have 7%.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bullet2300:
Would I be able to flash a Kernel from Kuban's wtih this rom or would that fubar stuff up? :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] organizedConfoosion:
AOKP has been buggy for me lately, I've been getting really weird text messages that don't have english characters in them, and I can't download or send picture messages.

Is this happening to anyone else or just me? It was working great when I first got it, but lately it's been being really strange. Normally if I just reboot my phone everything works fine when it turns back on, but it hasn't been that way for a few days now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edisonalvarez:
I think the weird text messages are actually 911 SMS messages but siince we are running aosp they come across as characters. I'm on a cm9 nightly and I'm getting them too. However I was running aokp milestone 6 and it was running buggy for me as well so went back to cm9. Not hating aokp I actually prefer it because of its options menu. Hopefully it gets more stable..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
no, you need an aosp kernel for aokp. those are touchwiz

ive seen this discussed several times now. its a national emergency alert. it comes in normal on tw but on aosp, its scrambled. not sure why. just blacklist it. i use gosms to do that.

been happening to quite a few ppl now. im sure the dev knows. no fix as of now. my 4g disconnects randomly also.

see above :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bullet2300:
Thanks cuezaireekaa !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
dev knows about this issue. im sure if he figures it out, it will be fixed. it happens but its not as bad as it was before the 7-13 build. no fix as of yet but i noticed i would get it when there was a llot goin on, for example: i have a folder on my desktop, with about20 apps. with all those in there, the pop up folder will flicker. when i take a few icons out, the flicker stops. also happens in youtube, market, few other widgets..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
Chrome also seems to flicker. For me at least.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] organizedConfoosion:
Ahh, but what about the picture messages?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
picture messages have been working fine for most everyone. mine send and recieve fine as well. my only suggestion would be a fresh wipe and reflash the rom and gapps. since the messaging works on this rom, i dont know much else to tell you. im not sure if you flashed the 7-13 build over another previous build or if you flashed fresh but try a reflash after wiping system/data, cache, dalvik completely and then if it still doesnt work we can try other thing.

just as a test, if you want to try...grab GoSMS from the market and send/receive a pic msg sent to yourself. it should go through. then try to send and receive with the stock msg app. after you uninstall Go of course.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheAtheistOtaku:
Once the cwm6 kinks are ironed out, will this rom switch to cwm recovery or stick to twrp. Just wondering because on past phones roms would stick with a differ recovery untill cwm was in working order.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bryanh85:
I recently purchased a Galaxy S3 and activated it. After purchasing the Nexus 7, I decided to re activate my Epic 4g Touch so I can tether using Wimax because LTE isn't available where I'm at. After activating my Epic 4g touch, my 3g won't connect at all. However, I switch on wimax and it connects. Do I need to go back to stock to update profile or something, to get my 3g back? Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beisboller:
Another option that worked for me was going into managed apps and selecting your stock Messenger. Once there clear data and retry sending mms. I was having the same issues and I did a clean installed. Hope that helps. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] e92dream:
Depending on your location the PRL did get an update within the last week or so. I dunno if that could have anything to do with it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
This isn't an issue, but my LED notification light is now pink when charging.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
you homophobic or something?

:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
to match the aokp unicorn goodness.

our phone can display magenta and blue as well as red

they change color when very low on juice or at 90% or at full charge. you can change the notification light color for different texts notifications in Gosms. just an fyi;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RCOVA:
Mine goes from pink to red to blue.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] G.Newton:
Just got my E4GT. Flashed this ROM asap! It's real smooth, with 4g and camera (coming from the Evo 3D, this is still being worked on). No reason to run touchwiz. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
anyone running the Safe AOSP Kernel CWM6?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neudof:
Bryanh85

I had the same thing happen the other day when swapping phones. You need to do a profile and prl update, which means you need to flash a TW rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan2202:
The ROM is impressive. But I seem to be having 3G data issues.

It seems that I lose 3G service and it will not come back until I stop/start the data toggle. The status bar still shows the 3G icon, but the bars are just light grey and I do not receive email and cant browse. I can still send texts and get/make calls. I havent been able to figure out a pattern yet, but the latest occurrence happened the past two days after I came out of an area with no signal (NYC Subway). Usually service comes back automatically as Im walking up the stairs to the outside world but sometimes it never comes back until I toggle. It also happens sometimes even if I dont go into an area with no signal (at the office). After I turn off the data toggle, and turn it back on, the 3G icon comes back on the status bar and the bars turn blue again and shows up/down arrow activity. Anyone else seeing something similar?

My GPS also has never been able to lock on this ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MochaCharok:
Hi.

I'm not sure what to say about your signal issues. Try using something like Network Booster from the market, maybe.

However, for your GPS, there's a *probable* fix for that.

1) Odin back to EL29 (or GB in general)

2) Obtain a GPS lock

3) Without dropping that lock (i,e. if you're using GPS test, don't leave the app), open up recovery

4) Flash the ICS ROM of your choice (AOKP in this instance)

You *should* have better luck with GPS. This is a fix from QBKing.

Just a video to actually see it: http://youtu.be/h_qm4He8W-w
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
Would this: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1115717 be safe to flash through recovery? Or would it screwy phone up? I really want this boot animation. It's not that I don't like the unicorns, it's just Doctor Who is better.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hrffd:
How do I use the camera? It just asks for me to insert my SD card when it's already in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
yea. seems awesome. be warned it breaks wifi on times aokp build. have to reflash rom to get wifi working again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
new cwm6. new twrp.

ahhhh!! what to do what to do!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Hahah that's what happens when you sleep :P i would run cwm6 kernel

Seems like there are more governers in that one (haven't checked out the new trwp )
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
I'm on it. pegasus governor is tits.

it DOES break wifi on times aokp build.

I believe the new twrp is based on chris's same kernel.. just swapped the recoveries. yet to flash and check.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Nice. Chris said everything works fine with the new kernel and his aokp build. :) :thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
If you're gonna use a different kernel you need the kernel modules from /system/lib/modules
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Yeah Chris's kernel breaks your wifi on this build.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Kernel module needs to match the kernel. Different kernel means its going to break things unless the matching kernel modules are included.

And from the look of his kernel zip, all of his modules are still included in the ramdisk so WiFi won't work in my ROM with his kernel unless you get the kernel module out of the ramdisk and push it to system/lib/modules.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crimsonred36:
Question: If my texts go above the 160 character limit, it doesn't send them at all. This never happened on my previous roms, even when I was using the Venum ICS rom. Anything I have to turn on/off?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AZImmortal:
I'm having the same data problem that you're having. I've read in a few threads that it only affects certain phones (lucky us) running AOSP ICS roms (AOKP/CM9). If you use a Gingerbread ROM, apparently you won't have this problem (I haven't been on a Gingerbread ROM long enough to verify this). Does anyone have any insight regarding this problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mamouton:
Go to message and settings and check the box to split up the message over 160 characters.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Real Sitek:
just throwing it out there i murdered my battery life at work today so powered off to get a charge and was screwed when i powered back on and got stuck on the boot screen. No clue why as i have been running fine for a few days now. Just food for thought!

Lol happy Thursday folks.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan2202:
The problem actually happened 3 separate times today. Thats the most Ive seen in one day so far. Still cant see a pattern other than going into an area that has no service (such as the subway) and then coming back up. 3G doesnt seem to sync back up.

I came from Calks FE22 rom before this about 2 weeks ago and never noticed this issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
In another forum, the OP, had the FF18 kernel labeled as the recommended AOKP modem? Times, is this the modem you recommend or do we still go with what runs the best per individual?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
I haven't had any data related issues on M6.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
When I try to flash gapps I get a CWM error that says:

E:Error in /sdcard/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip

(Status 255)

Installation aborted.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d j a:
Which ver. recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
Whatever one flashes with the rom. I downloaded from Shabby's mirror if it makes a difference.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d j a:
See the first post...don't use the recovery that ships with this rom to flash ANYTHING. Count yourself lucky all you got was that error.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Use EL26 to flash both the rom and gapps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
Wow, I thought it was only the wipe/factory reset that was borked from the emmc bug. My phone is fixed now, however. I odined FF11 from sfhub, installed mobile odin, flashed el26 with cwm, flashed this and gapps at the same time (should have in the first place), and it works.

Thanks for your help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nitronet:
Nope just installed the new camera apk with root explorer and all is good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d j a:
Speaking of recovery, any chance you can link to the open source kernel used in this ROM or post a flashable version of TWRP w/ kernel?

I understand the next release is to have it, but it would be nice (safer?) to have this sooner rather than later. (if possible..)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Well damn. I guess it just isn't meant to be for me LOL. I don't use it much anyway. It'll be fixed soon enough.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sean-El:
These are what I use and KBizzle I believe made them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
There is no open source kernel. This uses a repacked FF11 kernel until either sbrissen finishes his kernel port or samsung releases kernel source.

If all goes well with testing that's being done right new build including twrp will be out tonight.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] d j a:
Outstanding, thanks for the reply and your work on this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crypt0kiddie:
Question.

Is there any reason we can't ODIN flash EL26 w/ CWM, flash this ROM then flash the GAPPS. Boot the ROM, mobile ODIN flash the TWRP recover/kernel and just use that?

I had flashed the TWRP kernel to AOKP 37 and it seemed to work for the most part other then it didn't see my external SD 100% correctly. Was stable and I had 4G though. The only thing I found not working was my camcorder in the Camera app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
because there are significant changes to the ramdisk for offmode charging and other things, flashing a different kernel might break that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] honest1212:
How much is Android OS showing in battery consumption now?

Mine is the highest at 50%.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
Mines stay below 20%
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffrey567:
Mine is 2%. Battery life is not all that good round 13hr but its still breakin in so ill wait and see
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
and everything else works fine? even at 128 dpi? Thanks for the reply btw!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] epdp14:
Best ROM I've used for this phone, hands down. Thanks for your hard work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nathan7:
I agree 100 %
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobby2k6:
I have some issues with aokp m6 (not the sourced version) and I want to make sure if anyone has these issues...

-when I copy files from computer to the external sd card ( I have turned debugging on or off to test), it takes a long time and the phone freezes when I am copying movies or big files (this worked fine on my original epic4g )

- when i use flipboard and I turn off the screen off for a minute, after I power the screen back on, I can't scroll in the app, the articles don't scroll up or down and i have to flip back to the main page that opens with flipboard to scroll normally again

- when I play movies with mxPlayer pro ( i have several southpark videos on my 64 gb sd card) and leave the player on when I sleep..when I wake up, the phone completely shuts down on its own...the battery and charger work perfectly fine but the issue still occurs...I tested it today, I had the battery at 100% and played about 2hrs of video on mxplayer, it froze the phone and rebooted on its own (this never happened on the original epic I owned)

p.s. Apart from these issues, the phone is awesome and it is pretty smooth..thank you devs
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
I can't really say. The phone I use for development is bad esn plus sprint isn't my carrier. You'll have to either try it or see what others have to say.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I use the FF18 Modem and it seems to work pretty well. I can't comment on the other modems though as I really haven't tried them. I will say however that I normally get the best results when I pair the same kernel and modem together ex: FF18 kernel and FF18 modem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
I have been running FF16 for about two months but I will download a touchwiz rom to update prl and profile after flashing FF18. Thanks Scarmon and Times for the input. :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
I'm on ff11. no complaints. things seemed flaky in ff18 but could be just me. honestly hard for me to judge cause I'm 90% on wifi.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Same here plus I am in a basement. It still amazes me how temperamental and different our phones act from one to the next.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] organizedConfoosion:
Nevermind, fixed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Guys, FYI... DO NOT FLASH THE CM6 TO USE WITH THIS!!!

1. Breaks wifi

2. Erases stuff on your SD card. Myself? I lost /mnt/sdcard/Pics/Wallpapers. Not sure what else was removed at this juncture.

Either way, steer clear.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nemssn4cer:
I am running it just fine. Wifi works did not loose anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
Your running it with Chris new kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AZImmortal:
I didn't lose anything but all my apps that used to properly point to /mnt/sdcard/ were switched to /mnt/emmc/ and I had to manually change them back. My wifi works but I'm running the original milestone 6. Also, it's not CWM6 that's causing the problems, it's the new kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
I'm getting" unknown 4G!" Driving me nuts, cause no data will come through. Anyone have an idea what I can do? Tried a fresh flash.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
yea, the directories, they're switched on this ROM.

and i dont think so about the deletion ... not sure what happened to his files but @ cwm6 deleting files?? i highly doubt that. it does make the wifi stop working with this latest build.

go back to a touchwiz rom and update the profile and prl if you havent already. if you have, im not sure what to say if you tried wiping all and reflashing.

EDIT also, if youre trying to turn on 4g through the widget, maybe try toggling it from the settings. but im sure you did that..just trying to help :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan2202:
Just an FYI. The problem DID NOT happen this morning. Last night I cleared dalvik/cache and reflashed the ROM with the latest build from 7/13. I was on the build from 7/11. So we will see if this makes any sort of difference or not but so far so good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] polska2180o:
u should only get it the first time you try to connect, if you are in setting and get unknown the box still should be unchecked, just check it again and it will connect.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericlikeseatin:
I get similar battery life by shutting off data during long stretches of time when I know I won't be using it. For instance, at work, or when I'm asleep. I average 24-30 hours of life this way.

(AOKP milestone 6, FF18 source kernel, max cpu is 1 gHz, no other tweaks.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hrffd:
How do I use the camera? It just asks for me to insert my SD card when it's already in And I can access from root explorer and my apps show
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffrey567:
EBay crashes and causes phone to reboot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] organizedConfoosion:
This new version of AOKP doesn't allow me to play my music files or even view them in the explorer. I can see everything else on my SD card except my music folder, and when I go to play my music through an app such as Play Music, it just tells me it doesn't recognize the file type.

I even deleted all my music, remade the folder, and put all the music back on manually and it still won't even read the folder or music at all.

Any solutions?

There's a couple of other things I've found:

1. When I take a screenshot, or a notification goes off and I'm listening to music, the volume on the song will decrease for the notification, but after the notification is over the audio from the music doesn't go back to normal. It just kind of stays where it faded down to for the notification to come in. I have to increase the volume through the volume rockers or the slider in order for the volume to go back to normal (it shows it's still playing at the same volume as before, but it actually is playing really low).

2. The 3G seems a little bit slower on this version of AOKP, although that may just be problems with Sprint. Could just be a coincidence after switching to Milestone 6 from Build 40.

Thanks for the amazing ROM though, AOKP is definitely my favorite. ^_^
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kmull4:
So I found this thread because I am on AOKP mile6 and My phone app wasn't working either at 160 dpi, I followed the steps but now my contacts force closes whenever I try to call someone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
What do you mean? Contacts work fine here
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kmull4:
My phone apk wouldn't work at 160 dpi, so I found that modified phone app, but after I followed the steps my contacts kept on force closing. I got it figured out though, Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
Oh gotcha. It never happened to me. Glad you fixed it. You mind if you could tell me what the problem and fix for future use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kmull4:
Sure thing! After the original problem I had with the phone apk not working at 160 dpi, I found your link mentioned before in the thread about the modified phone apk. I followed the the directions but afterwards instead of my phone apk not working, my contacts kept on force closing. I then deleted my original phone apk and rebooted, everything works now.

Thanks again!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
I am glad to tell everyone that..

The OP has been updated

Download link has been updated.

All Sdcard issues, along with media scanning, apps2sd, etc should now be resolved.

New kernel, has uv capability, smartassv2 among other things.

Enjoy!

So how would we go about updating from M6? Sorry I'm a flashing noob, never updated a rom before. Do I need to wipe data, cache and dalvik cache? Or just cache and dalvik cache? And will i need to re flash the gapps package or will it remain in tact?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
Ahh. Did you rename the old phone.apk to phone.apk.bak
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobby2k6:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
i personally like to update from fresh if there are considerable changes. you could probably get away with a cache and a dalvik cache wipe but for me, i'd rather go fresh in case something messes up... yea, reflash gapps is needed and if you use it, sprint vvm, svoice and other mods
