I guess it's all up to personal preference.. myself, I always found it distracting to have the buttons light up by just touching anywhere on the screen, so the way it is now is just fine for me. :)

At least we don't have all the issues with them staying on all the time or just not lighting up at all anymore. :thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mxmr:
You can flash any modem you like, GB modem with ICS rom or vice versa. What NEEDS to be paired together is a GB rom with a GB kernel and an ICS rom with an ICS kernel. Modems are a free for all though!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PanchoPlanet:
While visiting the modem repository they had gb and ics modems in separate categories so it gives the impression that they don't work if swapped.

I suspect that the terrible batt life on this Rom may be due to cms, crazy modem syndrome. Wifey's phone is currently on this Rom, it's been six days so far and still waiting for batt life to improve, will be swapping some modems today to see if that helps. I'm still running gb, Calks E4GT v. 3.0, with no complaints.

Does YouTube work on this Rom? I cannot get it to play videos.

Works perfect here. Try a fresh flash

Anyone has any idea why battery is discharging very fast on this rom? In 2hrs and 26min battery went down 15% without any use and its been on Wi-Fi entire time since i charged it full...

creating a back up

So after reading and re-reading the OP and trying to search the thread, I need some clarification on creating a backup. If we are not supposed to use twrp to restore back up with does that me I have to get back to clockwork to create a nandroid back up, and/or restore from a back up?

Have had no issues at all with YouTube playing
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Evilsj:
Running the latest AOKP rom, and having a little issue. Screen transitions and animations will occasionally look kind of weird, almost pixilated. Doesn't happen all the time, usually when launching an app or coming back to the home screen from inside an app. Just seems to be a glitch with the transition animations, but wasn't sure if this was a common issue or what.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] allroy1975:
In my experience it drains fast because it's aokp. Each build gets a little more awesome and the battery life gets a little worse. I assume it's being worked on....but I'm constantly surprised how little people complain about it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EVOSerb:
Alright... its definitely better than stock ics as far as battery life goes which is the main reason i decided to root it... i hope they ll make it better because its very hard to get thru a 8 hour shift on one charge.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EVOSerb:
I forgot to mention about a lag when transitioning between 1-5 home screens... its like a small delay... and i hope they would add option to adjust brightness on browser.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Right on. Not sure if he knows. I'm sure he does but mention the video camera not working if he doesn't so he can add it to the list. Thanks for the update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
Is it any form of recording at all? I havnt had the time to test the camera past "it works" and id do it now but im at work so yeah lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VikingoRMCF:
Where can I find the settings for the hard keys time out, I’ve been looking throughout the ROM and haven't been able to locate it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Pictures work fine. Video camera seems to record on the front facing camera. On the standard camera you hit the button and nothing happens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] metapy:
The 4G toggle widget works!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Even when using a third party video recorder, the video on the display looks really choppy and playback is all scrambled with lines etc....kinda of like what was happening on cm before it got fixed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Ok so something I've run into with the WiFi. While it does work it does act weird I've noticed this on past builds (pre source version) In the pics below you can see that WiFi is in fact turned on and my router at work (this also happens at home) is working perfectly. The issue is turn WiFi on and it works fine set the phone down for a bit of time pick it back up and load any app that requires network access and they time out. Facebook, Instagram, Chrome are all in the pics below and as you can see in them WiFi is turned on and at full signal.

I've changed the setting for WiFi back and forth rom standard it's set as always on which is fine with me. It's a simple fix of turn toggling the WiFi off and then on again yet it is annoying.

Edit.

Just to add this My laptop is with me pretty much all the time while I'm at work now and it's connected via WiFi and I do not have these issues so either Rom or phone either way annoying lol...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VikingoRMCF:
I had wifi issues where it would drop and reconnect, downloaded wifi fixer by zanshin-g1 in the market, and now I get a solid connection each time
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
hrm. Thing is this does "not" reconnect yet WiFi signal looks as though everything is working correctly. As I said this has been an issue on pre source builds "at times" it's not always been like this some builds have the issue then others do not. I'll check out the WiFi fixer in the market and see if that does in fact fix the issue so thanks for the suggestion.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
If anyone wants to get me some logcats of connecting to wifi with wpa/wpa2 and of trying to record video that would be helpful.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I am currently not on AOKP at the moment. If you can't get a logcat then I will flash AOKP and get you one. Anyone running it can get one easy with alogcat from the market. Its free.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
Nah its fine I can get one later when I get home, was just gonna see if i could get some to look at while im bored at work XD.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjs2011:
Just an FYI, there is an app on the market called AOKP Backup which will store your ROM Control settings in case you every do a full wipe or switch ROM's and decide to come back. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
Will try and get you some later. We just got some work dropped on us so not going to be able to grab them right now as I'm about to leave.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
Im not a fan of doing any type of restore with ICS based roms until source is released and a permanent fix is available to make things completely safe lol. If they take the mmc cap erase command OUT of the kernel then theres no chance of it being bricked on account of that command not existing XD.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] F3L1XZS:
How's battery life on this ROM? Is this a stable ROM?

I'm starting off college tomorrow, and I have decided I have had just about enough of MIUI V4, and this seems like a nice ROM.

So again, battery life?

Stability?

and also, what are the flashing procedures? I was thinking of using the MIUI V4 procedure, OC Odin back to pre-rooted EL26, install CWM, use Calk's Wipe all 2x, wipe dalvik, then flash Rom, and gapps. Will this be fine?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
Best battery life ive hit was 20 hours so far(With juice defender and not using 4G). thats also because were using a stock kernel with no extra power saving scripts (and im a bit hard on my device). But as far as flashing things, Yeah just odin EL26 and then wipe data and flash away. Although if youre going to flash gapps also i recommend doing both at once. Flash AOKP and once thats done go ahead and flash gapps in the same go round. Skip the format all script. And also I would wait for a little bit, there should be a new build with TWRP coming out hopefully tonight. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] F3L1XZS:
Man, I'm f***ing pumped! This damn MIUI has been bothering me so long, my phone dies in lees than a few hours. Looked at some of the review vids on this rom, and it looks promising. :D

So, about the wipes, I just wipe data? What about system, cache, and dalvik? I'm not too familiar with the ICS roms, other than MIUI, and I've heard about bricking, which I don't want. Anything I SHOULD NOT do?

---------- Post added at 10:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:49 PM ----------

And also, thanks for the speedy response. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bb4arson:
Agreed

I tried to record this flyby by a Turbo aerial atom today and the recorder didn't work and I was mad.

But I love the whole notification bar toggles and brightness setter.

Will def be back after the small problem is fixed :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Dude. I am so happy to see this come to these forums. As for the ROM. You won't be disappointed. Its a solid ROM. Only reason I'm nit running it now is I am testing my ROM for a little bit to make sure there's no major bugs. One the new build his then I'll be back on this for a good while.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Did you delete or change the line in the build prop that is hwui.disable_vsync? This should fix your issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Evilsj:
As someone who only knows the basics about rooting and flashing, no. Don't have any clue how to do that. @_@
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Do you have Rom Toolbox installed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericlikeseatin:
Build.prop editor from the Google Play store is free and pretty easy to use. Just scroll down to the line mentioned a few posts above and change to "false."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jirafabo:
Whats the default sms app on this rom? Is it JB or ICS? Trying to figure out why i can't click an address in text message and it open in maps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PanchoPlanet:
Day six on this Rom and the battery life still sucks. Too many bells and whistles, too much quantity and not enough quality. No matter what I try in settings to save battery you can't get by in a day without having to recharge, and mind you the phone just sits on a desk in Manhattan ny, while my wife is at work. NOT GOOD!

PP. :(

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] G.Newton:
When I was running this ROM, it had decent battery life. It lasted fairly decent. You might try to see what's using up the battery and isolate it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
And most definately check for wake locks. If you know how to use ADB. running the command adb shell dumpsys power while the screen is off will tell you if it has any partial or full wakelocks

I suspected the modem because of the graph I was seeing when looking at the battery stats, the phone signal graph was always choppy with different shades of green, mind you I have a his and hers, my phone still on gb el 29,rooted on Calk'a Rom v.3.0 and we have exeptional coverage in NYC, I have been switching modems and have gotten minimal gains. The phone sits idle most of the day at her job, even with sync off, and the battery just drains like nobody's bussines.

Time to switch.

Pp.

Transmitted from another galaxy with an Infected P-5113.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Alright the switched memory is really starting to get annoying. I have all my system files and app data on my internal memory but now because the storage is WRONG it only looks on my sd card and saves ALL my downloads on my sd card no matter what I do. Could you change the back to the way it should be, because even though "all the other galaxy S2 variants have it like this" It's not meant to work like this and is very troublesome. If possible could you just make something separate for people to flash that can't stand this setup? Great ROM still but the storage is driving me nuts and might just push me away from this rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingRedHot:
This really annoys me too. Here's an easy fix,

-Download ES File Explorer and make sure that Root Access is enabled in the settings

-Navigate back/up to System

-Open Build.prop (should be the only file in this folder besides other folders)

-Under "ADDITIONAL-BUILD-PROPERTIES" you will find a line titled "ro.vold.switchablepair"

-Change to value from "/mnt/emmc,/mnt/sdcard" to "/mnt/sdcard,/mnt/emmc"

-Back out and make sure you choose to save it

-Restart your phone and your storage mounts will be switched again :D

I just did this and it worked for me, make sure to type every character exact because Android doesn't like screwed up Build.prop's
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Did you uncheck use internal sd card in storage after?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingRedHot:
No, I never knew about that :/ I would think toggling that and rebooting would switch your storage configuration also lol I remember that being added into CM9 a couple of weeks ago
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I unchecked it and they switched.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
What are the stock voltage settings?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingRedHot:
Well it's nice to know that I don't have to make that edit in my build.prop anymore lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
You have to do both bro.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patach:
So I've always had the 4G cycling issue ever since I was on Calk's, so no big deal. Whenever I lost 4g, I just do a quick toggle on my notification bar and turn it off and on again, it'll search and connect.

Problem is on AOKP, I can't seem to find a 4G toggle for the notification bar. I can see a DATA one, but that simply boots me into 3G and stays there. How can I quickly toggle 4G on the home screen? I've downloaded a couple widgets but it seems for some reason all they do is take you to various areas of the data settings, you still have to manually navigate the system settings to toggle 4G on and off again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
I don't have 4g in my area, but I know of I long press the screen and choose widgets, there is a 4g widget that works, turns it right on and off
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
A 4G status bar toggle doesn't exist for WiMax. Only LTE.

There's a built in widget that people have said has worked for WiMax.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Big Boy Laroux:
Do you mean just for AOKP? Because stock touchwiz has a 4G toggle in the notification bar. It was there on GB, too. So i would assume it i. possible.

The 4G widget does work, but I would prefer one in the notification bar as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
For aokp. Someone would have to write a toggle for it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EVOSerb:
There is a widget already included in aokp rom for 4G .... its in widgets when u open main app draw... so far there isn't 4G on/off in quick notification tool bar... just for 3G... 4G widget is separate. I wish they would include it with the rest of options on top ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] uplink.cu:
Goood!!!

Thank, I like this ROM...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KingRedHot:
... no... Read Below....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I know I meant after you do all that you have to make sure internal storage is unchecked
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dweeze87:
Anyone that is having issues with 4G rebooting their phone, it seems as if flashing the FG20 modem corrects the reboots.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I wouldn't recommend that because the FG20 modem has some issues. For me, I think it offset my GPS and speed tests don't work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EVOSerb:
Please include the stock ics clock/alarm in the next release... the current stripped down one included in rom isn't good... I know i could download from market some but i wish the stock would be included in rom with more options like timer and world clock etc...

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I think I went to manage apps and found the play store cleared data, found Google services and cleared that too, then booted into recovery and wiped cache, delvik, and fixed permissions. That did the trick for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
I just figured it out actually...uncheck the checkbox for GMail sync, check it off again, then reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JOEOZUNA4U:
this is a ROM built from source with stock AOSP clock/alarm. stock "touchwiz" apps dnt work with AOSP roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EVOSerb:
I know tw apps don't work on aosp... what i meant is that to include the full alarm clock with timer and stop watch etc... the one that's included is stripped down...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Download "stopwatch & timer" from the play store. It works better than stock. I prefer to use alarm clock+ but they have better alarm apps on the market.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JOEOZUNA4U:
i dnt think you understand what built from source means. this is the only clock alarm from source.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Yeah there's a thread for it somewhere. One of any of the things I listed or what you did should always fix this issue. The problem is finding which one works
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
If I always flash beats between builds could I just unzip the beats zip and put it in my gapps zip?

AOKP has not been official for our device yet so the good news doesnt really do much for us..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
doesn't matter official or not.

aokp jb is being released so it can be ported to our phone soon and times (or any dev) can now access the aokp jb source code for building purposes.

so it most definitely is good news and pertinent as well.

woot!

loving all the activity.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EVOSerb:
Alright I ll give it a shot ...thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JOEOZUNA4U:
yes, i understand that but my point is its going to take some time. i think once sbrissen gets his ROM stable then we are prob going to see an AOKP build.

its been quiet around here. maybbbbe times is planning something..

Trying this ROM again for the second time. I was really happy with it a few months back. How ever that while SD card walk around thing was annoying! Did they get rid of that??

Also, anything weird or not right in the ROM that I should be aware of before flashing this bad boy?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Forced to come back to ICS from JB due to bugs. Gallery does not display anything on my SD card after a fresh wipe. Root Explorer sees everything on my SD card. What's wrong?

could be worse. :D:p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patach:
I activated the 4G widget unfortunately I am still having problems with my phone.

On Calk's, whenever 4G would drop all I had to do was toggle 4G on the widget and everything would reset and come back online.

Using the widget in this case does not seem to work, when I checked the system settings it has 4G off, with a label unknown to it. This is regardless of if I have the widget toggled on or off it will not come on until I hit the check box.

Here's the screen.

so r u saying that u dont like the fact that everything gets stored on ur external sd <the larger one> and you prefer everything gets stored to ur internal sd < the smaller one> like a stock phone... are ur build.prop instructions meant to make emmc the external sd and sd the internal sd like a stock phone...something i noticed is when i plug my phone in via usb the computer reads my d: as internal sd <16gb> and my e: as external sd <32gb> which is the exact same as a stock rom which is not what i want...what i want is emmc to b internal and recognized as such by y computer and sd as external so i can store more files and games on my phone...if anybody can offer sugestions they will b greatly appreciated also can anybody provide further insight on the "use internal storage" option in the storage configuration...if i want my external sd to be read as my internal should i check the box so it says use expanded internal storage?

Here's a weird update about my unknown 4g problem.

In Calk's, 4g would drop due to me going into certain areas. A quick toggle on and off on the 4g solved the problem.

Now the 4g just starts doing randomly, and worst of all, I can't toggle it using the 4g widget, I need to literally goto system settings to turn 4g on again (which has turned itself off, with the words"unknown"next to it.)

What can I do to solve this problem?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TheSilverStig:
Feature wise bro. Has way more capability than cm. Really all ICS roms are buggy and bad on battery life for this phone and this one isn't unique.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
If you did what u suggested then let it sit for a while it should fix itself after a while. THAT'S HOW I FIX IT WHEN I HAVE THIS ISSUE. Use quicpic until it fixes itself also.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I don't understand what you're trying to say because contradicted yourself throughout this post, but the way the phone is made to run is emmc=internal and sdcard=external. When you flash the latest build it is backwards. All the GB roms were like this so it doesn't really make sense to change it for the majority that flash this ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] einsteins:
Hi all

Just flashed this ROM a couple of days ago...

Running very well with just a small issue of flashing when scrolling and battery life...

Anyway...I have a question

Can I use this Kobridge tweak to help with Battery life?

FF18KOB_TWv3.5.zip

I am new with this ROM so thanks in advance for your assistance
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MDK666:
Update:

It was odd but it was not the ROM that caused the issue. I odined the kernel el26 one more time and tried again and viola! Everything worked out perfectly. I'm enjoying the ROM so far. Hopefully in wont run into to many bugs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
What are you guys referring to as bad battery life, coming from rooted nx4g I'm loving this battery, but maybe although more than I'm used to, not what it should be idk. What does everyone expect it to be?
