This is the first time I'm upgrading AOKP and wanted confirmation on my procedure. I'm on build 40

1= back up user apps titanium

2= nandroid

3= factory wipe

4= wipe cache

5= wipe dalvik

6= flash milestone 6

7= flash newest gapps

Thanks!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
NO, I don't believe that's correct - don't flash from ICS to ICS.

Add these steps...

<steps 1-5>

5.1 - flash EL26 kernel with CWM5 (see the Kernel Repository doc on the Wiki page in Q&A here)

5.2 - reboot into CWM5 recovery after flashing

5.3 - use CWM5 to flash:

<steps 6, 7>
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sponge66:
I flashed el26 with cwm5 right before I Flashed AOKP build 40.. so to comfirm.. do it again?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
From el26+cwm I flashed this and the gapps. Rebooted and set password. For some reason I could not get wifi to work at all. The radio worked fine as well as store so I installed mobile odin and restored my nandroid for now. Any thoughts on what I did wrong??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] elliwigy:
Wierd.. i force roam and have rebooted multiple times and it stayed in roaming.. o well.. only great things to look forward to now :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
Times are you gonna work the AGOT kernel in your ROM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Probably not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
Have you made the kernel safe, meaning eliminated the eMMC bug? Thanks so much for everything and the quick reply!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Yeah, If I hit Roam then it stays roaming even through a reboot. But, what I'm talking about is the system select under mobile data options. If i set it to automatic then reboot it will go back to home only. If I set it to automatic and then use Roam Control to force roam then it will reset to home only. But when I use Roam Control and hit automatic it will change the system select to automatic for me but won't last through a reboot. It's kind of a weird issue to be honest. It has done it on every AOSP build I have ever ran. But I have gotten it to where I don't have to use Roam Control as long as I keep the 11119 PRL. But in order to do that the system select has to be on automatic or it won't roam like it should. Hence the reason I would love to see that setting last through a reboot. So I can set it and forget it as Ron Popeil used to say, LOL
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] polska2180o:
I could really use some help and am unwilling to change roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobby2k6:
sorry for the off topic question..."Can you do full backups in twrp and restore if something were to go wrong? (im on aokp version before the sourced version)...i used the new cwm recovery from chris, I could backup the rom but I couldn't restore the full rom when I tested it...I use titanium backup but I want the ability to make full backups. How do you guys make full backups and restore if you had to?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Venomusdragon:
Try a fresh install, make sure you wipe everything and follow by the books...

SGS II, check... aokp port, check... mini phonegasm, check

Party Spock is in the house, everybody have a logical time!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thewadegeek:
From searching this thread, this forum, and from reading his post I'd say that it's a safe assumption.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
I haven't seen anyone else complaining of this.

Have you tried flashing back to the EL26 kernel with CWM5, then from CWM5 reflashing AOKP?

If it's not the kernel, it's possibly an app you installed - from that behavior something malicious I'd suspect. Have you run a scan like AVG?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ymshulman:
Hmmm... i could be wrong, but i think you shouldn't be doing a factory

wipe until after you flash el26.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fendulon:
I have tried both the original M6 and the M6 with the new source built kernel. Both run absolutely beautifully, with one exception. Certain apps such as XDA Where's My Water and maybe 4 others I use become uninstalled, deleted or somehow hidden from the phone. These are apps that definitely rely on the external sd card. As in the Op I wished to have what we are used to /emmc/=my 16gb SD card and then /sd_card/=my 16gb internal SD card. So I check the box under the advanced settings in storage and I reboot. All is working, I restore with titanium (or download fresh tried both) and use my phone, but if at any point I reboot I lose those apps. I simply have daily backups and a profile set up and in titanium.

But still, why does it do this? I do a completely fresh install, wiping everything. Works fine on B40 though. Love B40.

Thanks for continuing with AOKP though. The deving is greatly appreciated. My favorite ROM by far.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
Bottom line is this: never flash from ICS to ICS.

If your phone is CURRENTLY ON ICS, with an ICS kernel, you want to flash back to GB kernel first.

Better safe than sorry.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] polska2180o:
I have, I always start from scratch and have had no issues with other roms in the past or stock rom now.

I usually go back to stock GB put EL26 Kernal with CWM5 and then flash aokp. I erase each usually 3 times once i flashed aokp erased flashed again and once flashed aokp twice...nothing seems to help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
Anyone have an answer for this?

In stock TouchWiz, exchange accounts had the ability to set a sync schedule, with defined peak and off peak times, so you could set discrete sync periods as appropriate.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] polska2180o:
Not really an answer for you but just swallow the pill pay $20 for touchdown...its much better and easier to use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobby2k6:
i kept having the issue with the "me infiltrator game"...the fix is to go to settings> apps>on sd card > if any of the apps has a green check, click it and click move to phone...follow these instructions after installing the app that keeps disappearing...I never had this issue with the original epic but this phone is way better
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sponge66:
I'm sorry to clutter this thread with questions I can figure out on my own(or read). I'm just very care and do not want to brick. I'm all set. Back to el29, flash cwm5 and flash rom/gapps(with all appropriate wipes of course). thank you for all who helped!! Love this community!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mamouton:
Sync settings are still there
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Ok, so you guys are gonna hate me.

Rom download link updated. lol

This should have the new mediaprovider.apk so that pictures and music on emmc show up properly.

offmode charging missing images issue fixed.

now you have the ability to undervolt!

go to Settings > Rom Control > Performance >Voltage control

No overclock yet. that will be coming soon :)

Now using sbrissen's kernel now that some major issues are fixed!

EDIT: Pulled for now.

hahah damn i LITERALLY just flashed 7-11 mile6 ...now i gotta flash 7/12 mile6...oh boy ! :) thanks times for all your hard work !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ker0zene:
Will we have to wipe/factory reset to upgrade from the previous build? Sorry I checked the OP and don't see any 'upgrade' instructions. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] polska2180o:
I hate you a little....maybe this one wont restart on me 5 times an hour.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I knew this was gonna happen. I don't think anyone is going to hate you for updates bro. I know I sure as hell get happy as a two dicked billy goat when I see that OP update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mamouton:
I think scarmon25 mentioned this earlier. I was trying to use my 4g and it kept rebooting about every 5 mins. Are there plans to fix the 4g issue?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
Did you fix the eMMC bug in your kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] latinmaxima:
Goo giving md5 error. Mobile version...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
so, does that mean the rom i just downloaded will give me problems? i downloaded the 7-12 mile6... what are you going to do to it times?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Not 100% sure. The problem I was having isn't happening anymore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
thanks very much ! I am going to flash it using twrp.. I was just on 7-11 ill wipe everything from there because odin 1.84 wont recognize my phone anymore..also, HAXSYNC was broken after i updated to source built kernel. could be THEIR problem, as i don't think its yours anyway..they just cant keep up with ur updates haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] downtrodn:
Download to the newest build says file not found. Was it posted somewhere else?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
times took it down for some reason. may have had to due with an md5 check like somone else posted..but the problem he "was" having he isn't having anymore so I am guessing that he will upload it soon... luckily i was able to download it before he took it down.. i flashed it and all went well.. about to set up my phone now.. ill let anyone know of errors etc... havent really found that many since b40 tho :) thats how awesome this dev is
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] r2xj:
Pulled because...? haha I got so excited to install and then realized the link was down and came lookin.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
is the eMMC bug present in the kernel or did you edit it out yourself times?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JOEOZUNA4U:
i had a chance to download the last build before it was pulled.. i couldnt flash it though. it said "aborted (bad)".
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toanau:
Does WiMax work on this build?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Build is back up.

This is sbrissen's kernel. eMMC bug has been patched out since he started porting it.

as for music not showing up. try and give it a little bit for them to show up. all my pictures weren't showing up at first. had to let it sit for a little bit.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sjsharksfan420:

Cool, just clarifying

So does anyone else have an issue with browsing to the "Latest" folder in TI's folder on goo? I can go direct to the folder through the web with this link: http://goo.im/devs/times_infinity/AOKP/Latest, but in goo manager, that folder is not displayed if you are browsing its parent folder..

Great work times_infinity did you see my messages about the emergency call screen being cut off on the lock screen and the 4g rebooting?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
i flashed 7-12 mile6 right before it was pulled and it worked.

I have all of my music and pics. date still doesnt show in notification bar --> turn weather on and enable it thru-out the ROM

also, when the capacitive touch lights go out theyll come back on when the "screen dims" then theyll go off altogether with the screen... and omg they just came back on.. they go off then come on, then go off then come on every bit of couple of seconds.. now it stopped.. ok that was a livefeed of what was happening..

my haxsync facebook syncage works again

vibration intensity has been lowered on capacitive touchkeys and thruout the rom

gonna restart, wipe cache and dalvik to see what it does..ill also remove or exchange batteries

over and out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Did you lower your DPI? It shows fine on my phone with stock dpi.

as for 4G I can't 100% test that. But never reboots my phone when I turn it on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] snapback2:
Yay my musics are back!!

Btw, is it safe to make a backup using the Recovery of this rom??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mamouton:
I haven't messed with the dpi at all. I was at the theater and keep hearing my blue tooth cycling I looked at my phone and saw it just rebooting. As soon as I cut 4g off the rebooting stopped. I will try a fresh flash again to see if that solves it. Thanks for the response.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
times_infinity , what is different between this version of 7-12 mile6 and the one that you removed a little bit ago? i flashed the one that was taken off... :(

Getting lots of random screen wakes with the new build...

---------- Post added at 06:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:53 PM ----------

New build being July 12ths build. Screen turns on and off every few seconds. Wiped cache/dalvik before flashing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
that might be the same build that he took down... not the one he just fixed.. maybe its the same... but i flashed the 7/12 build (before he took it down) and had the same problems ur having.. i also couldnt send a text or make a call.. it wouldnt let me hang up either.. i wiped and cleared cache and dalvik
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
I flashed it in the last half hour...was after. Either way the screen wakes stopped after I posted that somehow. Before that it was like a strobe light.

---------- Post added at 07:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:02 PM ----------

Nope, there goes another wake. Reverting back. This one is faulty.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Oscar_david:
I ended up moving apps to phone as nothing else would do for me. But that fixes it for good at least.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] adam.kelly2:
I'm about to take the jump. I'll post my impressions as soon as I flash and get everything up and running.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Don't flash today's unless you want your battery to die in an hour. The screen is like a strobe light. Keeps turning on and off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darrien13:
Me to man! :laugh:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] adam.kelly2:
Maybe, but it's a source kernal. I've been waiting forever and nothing will stop me. Hoping you had a bad install and it's not global problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
The zip was fine. The new build is bad.

fwiw, I'm updating my experience. the newest build, july12th second upload:

these are the only problems I have encountered... and fixed.

page tearing/glitching seems to be gone.

moved some apps to sdcard. they did not disappear. so these two things seem fixed.

the charging while phone is off seems good too.

vibration intensity has gotten weaker but that was never a problem with me. its just something new I've noticed.

now regarding some of the other problems some are seeing (I haven't tho), my 4g seems solid with no reboots so far...

my screen is not flickering on and off.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
Try doing a battery pull. The same thing was happening to me too. That's why I pulled the build. But after doing a battery pull it hadn't done it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
Worked for me. Thanks time. Can't believe I didn't think of doing a battery pull

Phone feels a lil warm, I just went from 90%- 77% in less than 10 minutes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ericvbp21:
had a quick reboot on 4g but then its all good now for about 10 minutes nows.. so far so good

i flashed back to the 7-11 build because the 4g kept on rebooting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
I know what fixes the vibration intensity. Its supposed to be configurable, but, I forgot two lines in init.smdk4210.rc. if enough people have issues with it being too weak I'll post an updated kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
its extremely weak. with button presses and notifications as well. so that would be appreciated . thanks for all the busy work man! :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdagraca:
its a little weak, i agree. also, for me ( the source built kernal of sbrissen) gave me more bugs than the orginal milestone 6... is there a difference between the 7/12 and 7/11 files of milestone6? times we do appreciate ur hard work ! i need to donate !
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] times_infinity:
What kind of bugs?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cuezaireekaa:
I'm not getting vibration with my notifications while the sound is on too. its either sound only or vib only. and I have vibrate checked for always in the settings. I'm guessing its because of the vibration intensity problem.

also had a couple reboots while the phone was off and I attempted to turn the screen on. just rebooted on me. not sure what that was about. never seen it. I'm willing to test more tho...

EDIT: I'm sticking this out... got the notification vib back while sound is on. after a reboot it came back but my gmail doesn't vib when I hear the notification beep. idk

--i was un-able to send mms to anyone for a while. until I turned airplane mode off then on. then they all sent. been on 4g this whole time and it seems solid.

haven't had a reboot yet turning the screen on

Wow! Lots of exciting update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sjsharksfan420:
My point is, why say there are issues with the rom when you haven't even tested it correctly yet? Even if just clearing cache and dalvik works between updates, if you have issues, you should try wipeing data and flashing again, if you still have issues, restore to stock and flash clean. If you STILL have issues, THEN report in the thread..

That a just what I do..

well, on the 7/12 mile6 (second upload) file

screen dims and capacitive light scome back on.. screen then goes off and wakes up.. tried exchanging batteries wiping caches and all.. no fix..

i tried to reboot from the power menu once and it got stuck.. didnt happen again in the testing period

when i lost signal and tried to make a call it got stuck on dialing..when i tried to hang up, it got stuck on hanging up lol cleared phone data and went back to application and it gave me options to return to call, use dial pad etc (eventho i wasnt on a call) it never connected.. i couldnt send/recieve text (obviously) even in good signal tho when i tried..

couldnt underclock in performance.. it would set to 100mhz but then id reboot and it would be back at 1200 mhz thanks !

thats all i got to before i flashed back to the regular milestone 6 from a few days ago
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Hey Times. You planning on posting an updated kernel. Only ask cause I've been on TouchWiz today working on my **** and was gonna hold off on flashing if you were. No worries man. Any info is appreciated. FWIW. I really enjoy my haptic feedback.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] datajosh:
I like the way haptic is on the current build, not as crazy intense as AOSP ROMs have been for me in the past. I have a feeling I'm going to be flashing between a lot of different things this month :)
