Well I'm on Calc's GB ROM right now and I depend on long battery life, my camera, and maybe tether. Is it safe to switch over yet or should I wait for source kernel?

Edit: btw can I transfer all my messages or use an app to archive them, and can I use TB to restore apps and data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
Ahh so i see the new build dropped :D. I have 0 complaints and im still a (test)build behind you guys XD
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Times are working with TCP on these builds
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Hey bro. Let times know about the video camera. Using the media_profiles.XML from build39 fixes it just fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Since you're coming from a GB ROM then you will need to reinstall the apps or you can use TB but you would need to restore apps only. As for the messages. They're is apps on the market that will backup your SMS/MMS Messages. You could try using that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
I know system apps can't be restored but why not downloaded app data? Is this bound to change with the source kernel? If not then I guess I'll just switch over now. How long should the whole process of switching over be?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
Hmmm... did this, and now it seems to be stuck rebooting... it's sitting at the boot animation, and not moving. Weird... any advice?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kleen3r:
Didn't work. Go SMS works though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Did you unzip the file? Also make sure the media_profiles.XML went into system/etc and set permissions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
Yeah, I unzipped the file and placed it onto my SD card; then, I went into a root explorer, moved it to system/etc, deleted the original media_profiles.xml that had been there, set the permissions on the new file, and rebooted. Now I can't seem to boot up. So strange... thing is, now that it won't boot up, I have no idea how I'd be able to fix this without reflashing the whole ROM again.

Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
You can try it and it may work. As for kernel source. That will have no effect on what you're after. It will only effect the kernel option in AOKP and make them start working. As of now you can't adjust kernel settings within AOKP and have them stay. But that's another story.

What I would suggest. Make a nandroid backup. Use titanium backup to backup your apps. Flash the ROM and Gapps and try TiBa to restore the apps. If it doesn't work you can always Odin stock, Odin the EL26 kernel and restore your Android and be right back to where you are now. If you have any questions or need help feel free to hit me up on Google talk. Scarmon27@Gmail.com
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
When you paste it in system/etc it should overwirte the one that's in there. You shouldn't have to delete anything. Try pushing the file but don't delete anything g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Did you flash fresh or upgrade. I upgraded from B39.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Yeah. You will have to boot into recovery and reflash ROM and Gapps. Wipe cache an dalvik and then flash. Should be just fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
K... is there a way to push the file now that it's stuck on the reboot screen? Here's what I put in and what I got from terminal when trying to push the file, unless I got the whole process wrong:

new-host-3:platform-tools ymshulman$ ./adb push media_profiles.xml system/etcfailed to copy 'media_profiles.xml' to 'system/etc/media_profiles.xml': Read-only file system

new-host-3:platform-tools ymshulman$

Saw your last post just now, will reflash again. But did I get the right commands for pushing the file? (using a mac, that's why it's ./adb)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigpeng:
Scarmon said you CAN use TB to restore apps. He said apps ONLY but I've always restored apps + data on all my TB restores (I have pro, but that shouldn't matter,) and have never had any issues on any ROM doing it that way.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Greek81:
Im not sure if this was answered yet, but are the bottom key lights fixed in this build?? Im at work so I havent gotten a chance to read through the threads yet, but I was just curious. great work on dropping the the build guys !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
I found them to be reversed... just put them to the opposite of what you want, and reboot. See if that works for you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Only thing I see you may have not done is su first. For example. Su then enter. Should gave you the # prompt. That would have gave you super user rights. May be why it gave an access error
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Thanks I think I'm going to start flashing over now. What're the most current steps to flash over?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Toonlinkmaster25:
Thanks dude that was the deciding factor
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
For you. I would Odin el26 kernel. Wipe data/cache and dalvik. Flash ROM then Gapps and reboot. Also to avoid any GPS issue. Get a GPS lock while on calks ROM then reboot into the el26 recovery and do the steps above.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
So I just type ./adb su? (Sorry, I'm a n00b in certain areas, and less so in others.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I haven't been on a Mac in years. Hit me up on gtalk if you can. But I believe it would be like you just said.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Last time I checked I wasn't.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
this is because the recovery needs to be unprotected(I believe that is the right term).

if you use an unprotected recovery you can push to system no problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kleen3r:
Fresh. I tried pushing the mms.apk from B39 also and it didn't work either. I also deleted the mmsdb and no go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Well ****. Maybe me upgrading is why its working for me. Try pushing the MMS from CM9 alpha 5. That should fix it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DjKurt:
Any word on AOKP backup from the market working on our phones???
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
Is the included twrp recovery unprotected or protected? Any clue?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:

Is there a way to have the backlight on the touch buttons dim after a time, the way stock TouchWhiz does? I know this question is not specific to this build, but when watching video it makes a difference.

Didn't work. I think I found the issue though. When I go into the data programming menu and look at the MMSC URL its set to mmsc. I think it needs to point to Sprint's URL???

Is there a way to change the record video quality settings from 1080p to 720p to 480 etc, I'm not seeing the setting for that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
You're talking about insecure boot. Specifically the ro.secure key in default.prop being set to 0. Which is what its set to on this kernel. If you're having trouble pushing to system. Try adb remount. If that doesn't work, try adb root and the ad remount.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] il buono:
MMS solid here too :thumbup:

This has been discussed countless of times. There's an answer to it in the OP but it is still buggy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kleen3r:
Check a few posts back from scarmon. You need to replace the media.xml file from B39.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kleen3r:
Can you check what your mmsc url value is set to in the data programming menu?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Push media_profiles.xml from Build 39-2 to /system/etc and reboot.

I'll upload a zip with the correct media_profiles.xml when I get a chance.

Should I use Calc's Format-All zip to wipe data?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I think I may be dreaming. I just charged to full and did my little routine where I calibrate the battery ( not for battery life but for accurate reporting) and booted up. Been running it for about an hour and I'm still above 90% . This is unusual. I think we might have a winner. Only time will tell :)

Sorry that didn't work for you. You can try clearing data from camera under manage apps. It may be possible the camera is retaining data from the previous media_profiles.xml.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
You may need to Odin stock and reflash. That might be the only way to fix it. Its been confirmed working on both a clean install and upgrade from B39. Clean flash may fix it for ya

Same with 39 it never worked for me. I odin to stock to get gps to work I even upgraded my prl. I then flashed AOKP but still no MMS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
One thing I do when I have trouble like that. Move everything you want to keep off the internal SD card. Odin to stock. Then odin the el26 kernel. Wipe data, cache, and dalvik. Then under mounts format emmc. This wipes the internal SD card. Then flash AOKP and Gapps. There is info for the MMS on the internal SD card. This may fix the issue for you.

Hmmm... I've been following this thread for a long time, and I believe I've taken the time to read through the whole thing. I only remember seeing a discussion about keeping the buttons backlight on or off the whole time. I'm trying to gain what TouchWhiz had, where they're on, but they'll go off after 6 seconds of not touching the screen, so that when watching video, you only have this gorgeous 4.5" screen, and no distracting buttons.

Is there a way to do this that I've missed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I don't believe that is possible as of yet. I may be wrong but as far as I know. Its either on or off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rooster85:
Running awesome so far here. Smoothest aokp build to date. I use gosms so mms is fine here. I'm assuming I could just completely remove the capacitive buttons by deleting their key layout right?

Is there an FF18 kernel for b40 that is not packed with TWRP? I would much rather use CWR or Agats recovery.. no offense to the TWRP crew.. but..

Maybe I can get clarification here though.. with TWRP, if I need to restore cwr or agats recovery, do I just restore back to stock first? Or do I need to do a more elaborate process to get out from under TWRP? I've heard a few horror stories so I wanted to make sure..

I want to run tests for b40 but am weary about the recovery..

Scarmon... I just wanted to say that you have been AWESOME on this thread. It seems like every other post is be from you trying to help someone. You're great man. Keep up the good work. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Right on. Well I can tell you the better battery life so far is a definite positive. So far the battery has been crawling on discharge. Most of the time the 100-90% drop time is only about 30 minutes. I got over an hour on the first 10%. About 30 min of that was screen time. That's a huge improvement. I can't be sure until after a few charge cycles but I think this is going to be damn close to perfect. Once you guys get source and have a source built AOKP kernel then we are going to be rocking. Times started as a kernel dev so the kernel he puts together will be bad ass.

Times. Once you get everything going with source and full fill your other plans you mentioned. Maybe consider something like the glitch kernel. :) :). Oh how I miss that. LoL. Of course this is in the distant future and I'm just excited right now.

So I know this has been discussed a bit, but I couldn't find a conclusive answer. I've tried the Phone.apk( and Contacts.apk with it just incase ) on 180dpi, it crashes when you dial out. So I copied over the M5 phone and contacts apks, wiped cache and dalvik and rebooted, same crash on dial out.

Does anyone have a fix for this? I don't mind not having full tablet ui, but a working Phone would be nice without crashes. Even if it's a known working 3rd party app, that would be ok until the native one gets up and running.

mine makes calls on 160 and 180. im on build 40 (i run 200 personally) but maybe ex dialer in the market. it has som nice themes to match the rom and i find it better that stock dialers. its kind of like the sense dialer. kinda.
