Beta 1 is working great for me. Bluetooth pairing audio is fine, although I'm noticing that if my phone is streaming audio to a Bluetooth device with the screen off and I turn it on, the music hiccups before showing the lock screen. I was on the 8/28 nightly before this, so I'm not sure what might have changed between them to cause that.

Anyone else having this issue?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
Hey guys. I've been having a problem that started before flashing Beta 1. My 4G speeds have taken a nose dive.

I can't pinpoint exactly when it happened but ever since alpha 6 I have been "dirty flashing" nightlies with no problems. I had been getting between 8-12 MB down from 4g (!) at work on all ROMs, nightlies included. At some point I stopped getting those awesome speeds, regardless of what kernel/modem combination I would use I was getting ~500 Kb down (!). So with Beta 1 I decided to do a clean install (EL29 one-click, CWM, profile update, PRL update, gps lock, FULL wipe, cache wipe, dalvik wipe). Unfortunately I am still getting around 500 kb down and it's really frustrating. Coworkers on sprint have tested the 4g on their phones and nothing has changed for them. I have tried at least 20 different modems (some GB, some ICS) with Beta 1 and still nothing.

Does anyone have any advice on what I can do to fix or at least diagnose the problem? Is there some sort of log I can pull (I have ZERO idea how to do anything like that, but I'm confident I can learn)?

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

I think it has something to do with source seeing that fi03 rom fix the problem but fi03 is unofficial so we will have to wait till Sammy release the new source that fixes the problem......I think .:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GiantJay:
Update your prl and profile. Either do it while on stock right before flashing or temporarily go back to do it.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
I did that while on stock.

How does one do I temporarily go back? Just dirty flash stock? Can I do that with the included kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
I realize now that this is a known issue with Sprint's ICS update.

I just flashed FI03 modem but that didn't help either.

Chris, any chance this will be fixed in nightlies?

eh? My 4g speeds are fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mikelav456:
Thanks but if you look at the thread for the temp stock it doesn't work with beta 1 for now.

If you look on the general forum there is a dedicated thread on the broken 4g (sorry on mobile, not sure how to link).

Edit: plus I already updated profile and prl during fresh install.

Just installed Beta 1 on my beloved Epic 4G Touch yesterday afternoon. Running beautifully. CWM was able to flash it over Alpha 6 with no problems.

I have been running into an issue with wi-fi connectivity on both Alpha 6 and Beta 1, where after sleeping the phone will sometimes stop communicating with the network, so it seems. This appears to be happening only with my apartment's wireless network (using a stock WRT54G), and not with other networks; normally, this would make me think that the router is the issue, but other wireless devices work fine (including my laptop when it's running Android x86).

I'd normally blame the baseband/kernel interaction, but this phone has been giving me quite a bit of grief about network connectivity ever since I bought it in March, so whatever. I'll try that PRL and profile update when I get home today; never thought to do that when I was doing the initial upgrade.

I have been having this same problem. Interestingly, I also have a WRT54G. In fact, I've seen this issue on every ICS/JB rom that I have tried, including stock ones, some worse than others. Never did it on stock GB. And, it's not just mine, but my wife's E4GT, too.

stock FH13 to CM9?

I just got my E4GT and it currently has stock OTA FH13 on it. How would I go about getting CM9 on it. I've had CM9 on my Epic4G for a while now, and much prefer it over samsungs touchwiz, but I already have one bricked E4GT, and I want to be super careful with this one.

Would I go with odin CWM5 and then flash CM9 and gapps from the sdcard? Reading the threads about CWM5, and the redundancy of the word "safe" and potential problems has me spooked about messing with it. I also haven't seen anything referring to using CWM5 or CM9 with FH13 and if they're compatible or not.

I did run into the bug where I was listening to music through headphones, a text came in and he notification played, then the audio failed to return to normal volume until I paused and then resumed.

Overall, my phone is more stable than on Samsung roms, really loving cm9,thanks devs!

I have finally found a good ICS experience for this phone. I do under clock to 800mhz just like on GB and get fantastic battery life and a smooth UI.

Thanks to everyone for the hard work.

I am also having a wifi disconnect issue as some have mentioned. At home on a FIOS (Actiontec?) router no issue. In my office, I have a WRT54G running DD-WRT firmware. It will drop the wifi and I need to cycle airplane to get a reconnect. I'll try and grab a log then it happens so I can help with the fix.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oscarthegrouch:
I guess I'm just lucky. I'm not experiencing the problems others are reporting. I sometimes get an app stopped responding notification, but other than that, this is the best behaved cyanogenmod beta I've ever tried. There was a bit of reading and searching involved to get it running right. The temp boot EL29 rom was the trickiest part in figuring out how to make it run just to update profile, prl, and get the initial GPS lock. FF18 simply wouldn't boot as the instructions said. The instructions were a little confusing. Other snafus happened but I finally figured it out. I'm not a fanboy either and sliced bread is still better.

Yeah this rom has been so solid it feels like it should be a final since it only has one or two little bugs.

I spoke too soon. I tried using the phone as a phone and it didn't want to dial out. I use google voice with numbers I don't want having my real number and when I selected to make the call with google voice. The dialog box disappeared after checking my choice of using gv to make the call, the phone kinda froze up and then said a minute later that gv was unable to make the call, retry? I said yes and it locked up again. I really really needed to use the phone then for my work and the phone was flipping me off. a few minutes later, I was back on my nandroid of calkulin EL29 2.8.1 and reflashed the EL29 modem, updated the prl and profile, rebooted and was good to go again. Dammit, it's always something ain't it?

Meant to post this here, accidentally made a topic and it wont allow me to delete it.

Just wondering if anyone else noticed music/video audio being godawful on this build. As in, with or without an equalizer, the bass and sometimes trebel sound like I'm listening through cheap $4 headphones. Tried el29 instead of 26, did a factory reset and did the standard root procedure. I think AOSP JB did this to me as well with el26 as my initial kernel.

Maybe I'm misunderstanding. Can anyone be of assistance?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wcsc12:
I have a question. I haven't flashed over to this version yet but I'm planning on doing so but I wanted to ask first.

I have the Epic 4G Touch but I'm on Boost Mobile using the Odin 1 Click rooted recoverable EL29 firmware currently. If I flash over to this one, will it mess up any of the settings I have for my Boost info or will it just work perfectly as normal. I know I'll have to do the GPS Lock beforehand and stuff but wasn't sure about the rest as far as everything else goes. I know I'll probably have to flash up to the FF18 Odin 1 Click Rooted recoverable one just to have the new antenna file as well I believe.

I believe you temporarily boot into TW (you can use the temporary el29 boot rom to do this easily posted earlier in the thread) and then you can turn it off via a dialer function (##2627#) and reboot into CM or whatever rom your using.

If that doesn't work, you can also do this via QPST service programming. If you do not know how, you can use part of this guide. THis guide is for updating your PRL but when you get to that portion, just look for a tab called 'brdcst SMS' and delete the entry for sms broadcasts.

Anyone else missing calls?

I have had a problem where my phone does not ring and I don't show a missed call once in a while on this ROM. I would think it was just Sprint except that I had the same problem (only much more severe) with Blu Kuban ROM, which was a shame, because I liked it a lot. So far, I am very happy with CM9-Beta1, but I am worried that the missed calls thing carried over. Is this an issue with ICS on some E4GT phones? I have been trying to find this in the forums, but have not had any luck so far, so I am beginning to think it is only me.

Could this be the SOD (Sleep O' Death) for incoming calls? I just saw some things about SOD for incoming calls being fixed on another ROM (AOSP JB, I think).

Any help and/or insight would be awesome and thanks in advance!

If it matters, I am using intergrated Google Voice.

The last few times I've tried flashing (I mobile odin el26, full wipe, install rom and gapps which are both on my external sdcard) it has installed to my external sdcard instead of the internal memory.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
LOL Alpha 5 did not have a recovery. The nightlies had the first safe recovery and Alpha 6 was the first alpha to have it as well.

You can ODIN/Mobile ODIN any kernel suitable for flashing from. The EL26 CWM or the direct boot version would be the classic choices and should be on that blog page you linked him. But the FF18 CM9 kernel repack would work and most likely still allow Alpha 5 to boot even. Newer source kernels from Chris41G probably wont function 100% correctly with Alpha 5 but it would give you recovery and on to your next CM.

Well first off you are asking in the wrong thread, this thread is about CM9.

Anyway, in order to get recovery just download the auto root package and follow the directions from the thread below.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1342728
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churka:
I was asking about CM9 also. Any I already got it working. I just flashed the kernel which took me to a recovery and I flashed cm9 and gapps. I still dont understand the recovery thing even though I did it, so each rom has a preferred kernel you need to flash to flash the rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Recovery on this phone is packed in the kernel. Flashing a new ROM will overwrite your current recovery.

In example. Let's just say you're on a stock rooted ROM such as agat's. He repacks the kernel with his modified recovery. You decide to flash a new ROM such as CM9... you reboot into recovery, do your wipes, flash a new ROM, and after you reboot you will have whatever recovery is included with the ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churka:
Ohhh... I think I am understand it now a lot better.

So now I'm on CM9 and i have a certain recovery on it. Now if I want to, i can go flash any rom I want by rebooting into recovery and simpling flashing? Then that new rom will have a new recovery/kernel?

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Yes. But you should be aware that some early ICS kernels for this phone are not safe and could possibly brick your phone.

The new kernels I can say work just fine for performing factory reset wipe data/cache without any issues. I myself have done it several times without incident.

Just read the OP for any ROM you want to flash and it should say whether or not the kernel is safe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churka:
Ok. Thank you very much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
No problem. I know how confusing the recovery on this can be when you are coming from another device and this is still fairly new.
