i'm also having the crazy battery drain and that was with airplane mode set! went from 100% down to below 80% after 3 hours where before i would still be around 98%. going to flash the latest nightly (8-15) and see what happens
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
It has something to do with the Google now app not having the right oom priorities. Hit up the last couple pages of the now thread for more details.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Google now does much better with battery on jb! Lol... just sayin...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Robbie Doo:
I noticed a weird drainage too but the 15th made it better. I'm gonna try the 16th and see if it makes a diff.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Don't bother. The 16th has no changes:

Haven't had this happen before, but sometime after installing 815 I lost my custom ringtones. Not just changed, completely gone. Recreated them last night but not sure how it happened. Also looks like somehow I've got a bunch of new Android system ringtones I did not have before.

Weirder yet, I rebooted this morning and now I have dups wth
[Epic 4G Android Development] gundamfan:
I actually had the same problem, I also lost my camera pictures in the gallery app, BUT I fixed it. I cleared the media data from the application settings, and I downloaded rescan media from the play store. After doing that and rebooting, it all came back :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] UPdownLoAD:
I am running the 0916 Nightly and I have had 1 really really annoying bug I can't figure out how to fix: I keep randomly loosing audio notifications (notification light will still blink appropriately however). It will work for an undetermined amount of time if I reboot the phone.

Was/is there a fix for this? I refuse to go to CM10 due to lack of Flash and a few other app incompatibilities at this time, so that is not a viable option for me at this time.

Thanks!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] UPdownLoAD:
Any help for my above mentioned bug? Thx
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
I couldn't figure out the notification drop out when I had that issue - my fix was to upgrade to CM10. It is possible to get flash working on 10, although I didn't stay with it long enough to determine if it worked 100% correctly. I don't know what other apps don't work, but there may be ways to fix that.

Or you could take my approach - I went back to CM7 for the battery life, lol. Sorry I couldn't be more helpful...
[Epic 4G Android Development] nyr35blue:
selecting recipents/groups when sending messages

although i have ROM'd my phone so many times that this seems like a rookie question but how on earth can you bring up your contacts when you want to send a message with the stock ICS messaging app? I have to start typing it but i would rather select individuals or even google groups i have set up. This was cake on the GB roms but i dunno, i dont see it. :confused:

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] murso74:
Cm7 stable isn't always that stable ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] roguejam:
Agreed! A wonderful job to the devs! CM9 makes the Epic feel like a brand new phone with great battery life, definitely looking forward to keeping this for a while!

Updating to the most recent build RC1 nightly. Been running 6-19 since 6-19 and have had no issues other than those which have been fixed since.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Keep note that the nightlies prior may be more recent as the rc is a snapshot of when cm9 was tested as stable.
[Epic 4G Android Development] duce102:
Still on the first page for me. I've got xda set to show 50 posts per page.
[Epic 4G Android Development] I Brick Phones:
I too use this quite often, and the change to 2 seconds gets annoying. I wish this was either reverted to the previous setting, or even better if it was adjustable under the developer options.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Robbie Doo:
Are there gonna be any nightlies for RC?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Nightlies will continue, I would assume. Just because it's a Release Candidate doesn't mean development stops. I think it was mentioned before that some of the most recent nightlies might be more 'up to date' than the actual RC.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sonarchist:
Nightly Builds

Nightlies + RC's, all emerge from this continuum of fixes + progress:

http://cm9log.appspot.com/?device=epicmtd

.......keep 'em coming! :) ;) :D

+ Thank You EPIC CM Team!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Robbie Doo:
Nightlies are great. However, it's confusing not to know whether it's for ß4 or RC1. The file names don't mention anything.
[Epic 4G Android Development] doncaruana:
The builds are typically completely linear. All an RC really is is a "special" nightly anyway. I could be wrong, but there aren't separate code lines maintained. So once an RC is built, any nightlies will be the RC plus whatever new changes there are.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
I think that depends on when the code freeze took place. My assumption would be RC1 came after B4, but the nightlies are just incremental updates on the latest update...so in this case, RC1.

This is what I was saying before as to why some nightlies may be more up to date than the RC1 even though RC1 was released later. RC1 is probably a specific nightly that was tested through and through to ensure it was stable.

RC has to go through testing stages and such, it's not like they just decide one night to make something a RC.

Everything bulids on itself, but I saw BBQLog mentioned as an app that shows you what changes were made for the latest nightly as well as what changes are coming in the next one.

I'm no dev, so if I'm off here, hopefully one of them will step in and correct me. This is just what I've gathered from reading many threads.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilajrestnom:
So what would be more updated and have better fixes the RC1 or the 28th nightly?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
I think your question may have two different answers...

More updated --> Nightly

Better fixes --> Up for debate. Nightlies may introduce new bugs and such, so it's a crapshoot if a nightly is always an upgrade or not...An RC, by default, should be the most recent stable update they have.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilajrestnom:
So they aren't the same at all. That's what I thought.

One more question, will the nightlies now be based off of the RC1 and improvments to it or will they still be kind of a separate thing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilajrestnom:
Also does anyone have problems with sending texts?

All my texts send out but 9/10 of them say "message not sent" but they actually do send.

I'm using handcent.

Does anyone else see this or was this problem fixed? I'm using the 26th's nightly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Your short answer is yes, but it's not really 'based' off RC1 so to speak. The nightlies are just increments of each other. The RC was basically a snapshot in time where they froze the code, but nighlies still continued based off the same code. Does that make sense? Again, this is just my understanding, but hopefully someone corrects me if I'm wrong!

Nightlies will still (hopefully) come out as more and more things are added. Once they decide enough improvements have been made, they'll go through the same process again only come out with RC2 more than likely.

I've had this happen to me on Handcent before, and it's what drove me to GoSMS Pro to be honest. I think it's more of a problem with Handcent than the ROM.

I kept hitting resend and people were asking me why I was sending them the message 5 times :o
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilajrestnom:
Okay I get it, so for now I flashed marcusant' kang (if that's how he spells it lol).

And I thought the txt problem was ROM related because I only have had it on cm9. But maybe I will try a different app or the stock mms app for now to see.

Thanks for your helpp.
[Epic 4G Android Development] propjockey:
Marcusant's Kang is built from CM9. And I believe the MMS issue can be a result of being on wifi. The MMS times out before the data radio gets a signal to send the message.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilajrestnom:
You just may be right about that. I do usually have wifi connected.

I'm going to test it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shinydude100:
i remember a dev saying that wifi wasnt properly coded in the right setup per say, and that it wasnt supposed to be alongside data and bluetooth but to have wifi working that it was made like that for the time being on early alphas and betas, never knew if they got around to properly placing it in the right setup in the code if that makes any sense?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Decad3nce:
that was fixed a while ago. Wifi is properly listed as a data interface for mms now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] StoneRyno:
So if we want to make sure we have all the latest code changes we should go to a nightly build newer than the RC listed on the nightly download page?
[Epic 4G Android Development] robrob:
This is my understanding: The RC is frozen so only bug fixes are being worked on. If you want a mostly stable CM9 then flash only the RCs. The nightlies include new features and bug fixes but they can have new (big) bugs too. Flash the nightlies if you want the latest, bleeding edge CM9.
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
having an issue on cm9 6/28 nightly, when trying to recieve and place calls sometimes I, and the person on the other end of the call, can only hear ourselves echo back, and not hear each other at all. When dialing it will sometimes not ring but only let me hear myself echoed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
I will like to thank all the devs for there continuing work on cm9 and for releasing the RC.

But I am experiencing a high rate of battery drain since beta4. Now it might be cause I still have original battery. But what app can I use to see what is causing my drain cause I have auto sync in my accounts turned off
[Epic 4G Android Development] CogDancer:
Better Battery Stats. There's a free version for XDA users, google will help you find it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
I don't currently have it installed but the devs mention that the app causes drain also
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
It does simply because it's polling everything else. My suggestion would be to install it, let it roll for a day or so while using your phone as you normally do.

Check the stats and see if there is anything out of the ordinary. It should at least lead you to your culprit if something really is draining your battery. However, just be sure you know you won't get as good of battery life on CM9 as you would on a customized TW ROM. That's just not going to happen.

TW was specific for our phones, while this phone was never supposed to run CM9 in the first place.
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
That is so true but cm9 is so much quicker in most ways and has so many options that tw doesn't lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
I didn't get any responses, so I figured I might ask again. I am having an audio problem where at least 50 percent of my calls outgoing or incoming me and the other party only hear our own voice echoed. This is happen on all of the latest nightlies, with a wipe before installing so it is not due to bad or corrupt data. I am not sure if this is a network error or a problem with the rom. I do have google voice integration enabled. Is anybody else experiencing this problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Odin back to stock and try again... bad data can still be left over with a wipe... odin should fix your problem... if it does not, bad download or bad flash....
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
so you don't think its a problem with google integration?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
It could be, but I seriously doubt it since I also use google voice and don't have this problem.... try taking your phone off google voice and see if it fixes your problem, if not, I see an odin in your future...
[Epic 4G Android Development] bender beerman:
i see that the next nightly will finally get the power widget improvements from cm7, i loved that one :) thank you guys for building the best rom for the most epic phone!!!

A quick question about the nightlies has anyone else have issue getting them to download thru rom manager cause I tried at least 2 or 3 times and it will say that rom manager stopped working
[Epic 4G Android Development] maltydog:
I have been having a problem with battery usage on the nightlies, I tried a couple of them for a few days. When I ran CPU Spy, I saw that my phone never went into deep sleep. I have reinstalled RC1 and the battery is much better. Just a data point...
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
I have noticed this as well. While my phone goes into deep sleep it is being woke up a lot more then previous. Using BBS I was unable to determine what was waking it up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Run a test for me...go into Display - Notification Light and uncheck it. Run it that way for a few hours and see if that helps.

I remember in earlier versions of CM9, the noti light would keep your phone awake for seemingly a lot longer than it should.

I've disabled it currently, and it seems to help quite a bit.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Ever think bbs is keeping it up?
[Epic 4G Android Development] pvtjoker42:
had my first random reboot running CM9. running 7/1, and went to take it off the charger this morning. screen stayed black, hit the power button to wake it up several times until it finally popped up the samsung logo and rebooted. Been fine since, but this is the first random reboot i've had on ANY version of CM9, even since the early alpha's.. Hoping it was just a fluke.

The flash issue, while it is an issue, can be worked around by toggling On-Auto, or Auto to on.

I know but it's still a pain and doesn't work for video period.

I still think the rom is great but those things are the only minor issues I run into. If those few things could be worked out this rom would be pretty much perfect in all aspects imo.

I am running rc1 and until this morning the option to disable capacitive lights has worked fine. Now they stay on again even with the option checked. I have cleared cache and dalvik then rebooted. I also relflashed rc1 again. But to no avail. I am not sure why they all of a sudden came back on but I got so used to them being off that it is driving me nuts. Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Have you tried turning off auto brightness? Could be related, there are new settings in Display that could affect cap backlight

did you flash another kernel? I have this problem after flashing self compiled nyan kernel source with codesourcery toolchain
[Epic 4G Android Development] chrishighs:
Capacitive lights are working fine for me on the latest nightly with auto-brightness enabled. Everything is smooth and I have not found any bugs that are not app related.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jmax0420:
I am using the standard kernel that came with rom. I never use auto brightness, but did try a couple variations of turning it on and off while rebooting and cache/dalvik flushes. I basically have only necessity apps and I have neither added nor subtracted any apps in over two weeks. I did however accidently pop out the sd card on the fourth of July while the phone was still on without properly un mounting it. I thought my phone was off when I did it. This made some of my apps that were on the sd not be found by the phone. Once I realized the issue I just re mounted the card and all was well. But that is the only deviation to my standard use in weeks. And if this helps I pulled the sd to transfer a couple pics of fireworks to my girls computer and I didn't have a tether cable handy. I don't believe that this relates to the capacitive lights but I could be wrong.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jmax0420:
I was able to fix it. I turned auto brightness on, unchecked disable capacitive lights, rebooted into recovery, wiped cache and dalvik then restarted. This fixed whatever hiccup or glitch I was stuck in. Thanks for all the help. Without the ideas in everyone's post I wouldn't have thought to try that specific combo.
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
fixed the problems I was having with calls/voicemail/messaging by disabling google voice integration and going back to using google voice for voicmail only with a new google voice #... another problem plaguing my phone is app storage space. I don't feel like i have that many apps, but trying to install more right now is a problem. I repeatedly get the "insufficient storage space" message from the google play store app, and low memory occasionaly shows up too. I have to delete an app to install a new one, and get the insufficient space error when some apps try to do an auto update. How many apps do you guys have? do most save apps to sd card or have reasons not to? I have over 80.5 MB free on internal and about 4GB free on sd card. I prefer saving apps directly to the phone, seems they work better/faster but have a few on the sd card. any benefit to format an /sd-ext or is that an outdated thing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
This is an issue I have run across as well. One way to get by with it is to move an app to the SD card. For some reason this would temporarily fix it for me. To get it fixed permanently I had to do a clean install formatting system.
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Speaking of Google Voice, does anyone know how to disable that wonderful 'feature' that automatically starts playing voicemails as soon as they're left? Drives me fricking batty.
