Loved the original black and white venum. Hope this works as good. Thanks Slesh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Tried to do it justice. The biggest dif you'll see is the apps. The original Venum ICE had tons of apps, which was awesome, but I tend to lean towards lean, so I got it down even more than m'ICS. At 247mb I think its one of the slimmest out there (TW of course). And Odex, man I think it matters in ICS more than it did in GB, or JB for that matter. Feels like our version of project butter
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sixfoota21:
The red and mint green mix is much better on the eyes than whit and black,IMO. Added red Swype keyboard,JB extended notification bar,and looks AMAZING!!! Best looking Daily driver yet...

Ya and that is surprising since Slesh is always updating it and adding stuff and it's always at the top. I guess it's just that people have moved on... Who knows how popular this rom would be if the epic touch was new!? I would say one of, if not, the most popular rom out there :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cdss:
Hey sleshepic, great job on bringing back & updating this rom, its always been my favorite.

I seem to have broke my camera, can you or anyone post a zip file for camera apk for this rom please?

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
The camera apk is relatively unthemed aside from the icon so far. If you were to pull the camera.apk and camera.odex out of the rom zip and push to system/app(fixing permissions like others), you should be all set.

On a side note, working on custom ringtones/notifications now(100% original music, could be a good or bad thing :) ) But finding out that system ringtones are SO overdriven. Have to find a better way to boost volume...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
First batch of ringtone/notifications are up for testing. If anyone wants to try em out you just have to push to system/media/audio/ringtones. And set permissions like other .ogg's

Mendelssohn_Remix.ogg - 300.76 KB

Nina_ringtone_1.ogg - 490.73 KB

Sonny_Roy_Mix.ogg - 292.65 KB

Stringy_ringtone_1.ogg - 98.84 KB

Stringy_ringtone_2.ogg - 98.32 KB

Used the Nina ringtone as my alarm this morning, think its perfect for that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Galaxy S3 sounds

Oh what the heck. Figured I'd throw some up here too.

GS3 sounds. Notifications, ringtones & alarms. UI sounds removed (camera click, low battery... and the rest of the system sounds).

This is a flashable zip. They can flash sounds on odexed without any issues, right Slesh?

Download Link

(FYI, you can listen to the Ogg sounds with VLC media player or any other that supports it. I don't believe the MS Media player does.)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
yeah I can't see why there'd be any issues flashing sounds on an odexed system. Might have to steal that zip to put my sounds in once I make some more. Thx TD
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Yeah man, have at it. It is just a generic installer script and the file paths are already there. Anything to save some work, those sound files are buried pretty deep. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I flashed TD's zip on Odexed and all of the new ringtones show up. Sweet. My touch sound didn't change, though. I like the GS3 Touch sound and would like to have it. Anyone know how to change it from stock? I don't see any option in settings. Maybe we need to push an Ogg file. Any thoughts?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
I would have to take a look at what's in his zip. That's ogg is in UI I'm pretty sure...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Yep. After flashing the zip the new touch sounds are in audio/ui and they all play with the music player. Don't know how to apply the TW Waterdrop touch sound though. All the permissions look correct on the new ogg files.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Are you able to find the name of the old click sound(the one you want to replace?) Maybe just have to swap file names with one of em. Off in a bit, and gonna play around with some new tones, will take a look
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
That's correct. I'm pretty sure the UI sounds are static. You would have to rename what you are using to the exact name of the stock sound that you want to replace.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
You guys are right on the money. I backed up the original TW_Touch.ogg to my sd card and renamed the sound I wanted to TW_Touch.ogg then rebooted. It works. I thought Waterdrop was the touch sound from the GS3 but that wasn't it. I used the Send Chat file and its pretty close. Also had too go back to my keyboard settings and re-enable keypress sound after making the change.

What's a safe way to go from king kang 3 to this rom, I need some help..... I'm scared to brick
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
get to a safe recovery, like an el26 kernel/recovery, there's a bunch in the kernel repository, or mine the in OP, Then flash the rom. Full wipe would be needed(strongly recommended) going from KK3

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
That has been removed in all fi25 and fi27 roms. By samsung. Unless the dev implemented the fix go to the mod I just told you about. Follow instructions in the op of that thread and done.

sent from MY BAD A$$ ET4G
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I'm pretty sure I read somewhere that FI27 won't give you your MSL with the emulator commands. You need to go to an older version. I haven't checked out TDunham's method though.

In response to coming back to ICS from AOSP or a CM Rom, I flashed Paranoid Android CM10 last week. To go back to ICS I flashed the EL26 stock kernel with mobile Odin and did a factory reset. I then flashed Crawrj's Stock FI27 Rom and had a bunch of issues. Restored to a known good backup of an FF18 Rom and still had issues (FC's, freezes, reboots, etc) Finally I Odined stock unrooted FI27, rooted it with Garwyn's Odin file, then flashed one of Agat's kernels followed by flashing this Rom and my phone is playing nice again. The moral of the story is sometimes a full wipe in recovery coming from CM isn't enough and a PC with an Odin file is needed. I think it's wise to do that occasionally if flashing a lot of roms. Just my 2 cents

So I have been running this rom for about a week now....

First off let me say ty!

Now.... I am having an issue with the phone just locking up when the battery hits around 40 precent. What it is doing is just freezing up. I might be in the middle of a phone call or surfing the web. Same result just a lock up... too a blank screen.

I just do a battery pull and throw the phone on a charger for however long I have and then it comes back.

Why?

sent to you from my PoS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Its hard to say. Off the bat it sounds like a battery issue? This has happened a few times around 40%. Haven't had that issue here.

Ya I was thinking the battery might be bad. I will try wiping battery stats and fresh cycling through the next few days and see if I can "catch it in the act" and error log anything

Users are reporting occasional crashes here and there when replacing the stock Gmail with this version. It may be necessary to remove/readd accounts and wipe app cache/data since this is a big jump in versions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Thanks for the info TD. I used a non inverted version of 4.2 on a couple roms lately and had no problems, but it was following a full wipe. I'll do what you suggested just to be sure. The pinch to zoom is a nice feature.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The swipe to delete is too. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Yep. So I installed Ruj's Inverted 4.2 and my phone shut down twice in about a half hour. Replaced the apk with the stock non inverted 4.2 and its been running good for a couple hours now. Can't remember where I got the apk but if anyone wants it here's a link. It's stock white. If you theme it and need testers let me know, Slesh. I'll let you know if the stock one crashes on me.

Been running stock Gmail 4.2 for 24 hours. No issues whatsoever. Don't know why I had problems with Ruj's inverted version but haven't had time to look into it on the other threads.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
I keep reading about capped 4G speeds on custom kernels. Its really hard for me to tell, but...they don't look very capped to me :) (yeah yeah the uploads not great, normally about ~230)

And believe me when I say, there have been no wimax upgrades in the last 6 months in my area

On a side note, been making more notifications/alarms on teamvenum.com. check em out in misc, sounds. Something like VLC will play them right away for sampling
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I wish I had good speeds like that. I'm lucky to get 2mbps on wimax with the custom kernels around Seattle. I've been using Agat's FI27 and I'm seeing 6 to 8 Mb consistently and occasionally 9 to 10. A big improvement, but I'm sure it depends on the coverage in your area, too. The trade off is I can't use Ex Tweaks to improve battery life but it's still really good with your Rom, Slesh.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
thanks, I'll get extweaks in my kernel one of these days. Been distracted with other stuff. If I had it I'm sure I'd use it, but haven't seen the need for it yet with everything else. But I'll get to it :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] celsius0010:
Thanks for the kernel I'm using it now on Lightweight.. But I'm guessing performance varies by location..

On Agat and Kuban's custom Kernels I max out at 800kbps here in Anaheim. On yours I can get up to 2.5-3mbps.. But on Agat's stock repack I get 8mbps.. All tested this morning too.. I wonder what the issue is?? Anyways thanks for your hardwork, 3mbps is good enough for me right now!

Good choice in kernel. My 4g speed are kind of okay with this amazing kernel hahaha sarcastic much. I am also getting the best battery life in the world even with no UC or UV.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
I really like the looks of your recovery, Slesh. The red text really stands out and makes it easy to see. Glad to see people getting good wimax speeds with it. Since I'm a DataHawg and my 3g around here sucks, I rely on my wimax a lot. The custom kernels with all the tweaks available weren't cutting it for me. If you get around to getting Ex Tweaks working with yours and still get good data speeds, that would be a big deal. Battery is still really good though. I'm a happy swine.

By the way.. please make this for a AOSP theme chooser. I can't decide between jellybean and your amazing theme, having both would be awesome :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] InfiniteStylez:
Pure excellence. 4 hours on the battery with super heavy usage, buttery smooth, and oh so fast! This is now my favorite ROM and daily driver. Can't wait to see how awesome it'll be on a regular day.

Few things I was wondering about, no criticisms here.

1. I switched to Nova Launcher Prime and the latest Swype Beta, is there a safe way to completely drop Apex and SwiftKey 3? I'd just remove with TB but I saw you had done some things with the framework and figured it was safer to ask first.

2. If I flash one of your other themes, will it overwrite the current one? Just wondering for space saving reasons, downloaded some pretty hefty games.

3. Are APW and Launcher Switcher safe to remove through TB?

3. Now that I've completed installation of this ROM, is it safe to delete the .zip from my phone? N00b question, I know, don't kill me. I just got a very specific answer for a general question prior to, want to be safe since I'm still learning.

*Separate*

Anyone know of any tricks or a decent search query for running big games like Wild Blood from the sdcard instead of usb storage (please don't just tell me to get a big tablet lol)? I'm down to about 3 gigs of usb storage but my 32 gig sdcard is virtually empty. I tried a lateral move followed by the backup Android folder directory, all it did was reinstall the same 1.5 gig file on the usb storage. Asked Samsung when I was still on stock GB...but, you know, they're useless.

Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
1 yes delete through tb

2we need more info on which version you flashed.

3 yes delete

3#2?lol I would leave it. That way you can flash back if you haven't made a nandroid and would still like to be on this rom.

I believe you can. Look in themes and app section for the mod. I havent used it though. So follow instructions. Make a nandroid first to be safe.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
If TW launcher is removed, and apex is renamed as Launcher2.apk in system/app, you wont want to just delete apex. You'd have to replace Launcher2 in there too. To the other apps, apw etc, yeah you can remove them with a root app. And as far as deleting the zip, yes you can as its already flashed/installed. But I always recommend having a version of ehat your running on your phone - if ever you need to flash something back to stable in some emergency etc

On a side note, picked up a Note 2. Still have my S2 for the time being though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] InfiniteStylez:
Thanks a ton, man. Thanks for also pointing out my typo, I need to proofread more lol I flashed this version:

[Rom]Odexed m'ICS v1.7a Fi27(w/white status bar/JB Pulldown - see pic below) 10/26

m'ICS_v1.7a_whiteJBmod_ODEX.zip - 252.99 MB

Thanks a lot. Now to figure out the steps for the first thing you said lol Went above my head with that one. Are you saying I only need to have a second launcher installed? Or that I'll have to make some real changes in order to make sure I don't screw something up when removing Apex? Thanks for the advice too. I'll double check and make sure the .zip's on my sdcard since I can spare the space there.

Thanks given, guys.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
I was just saying that Apex Launcher is name "Launcher2" in your system/app, and I stripped the TouchWiz Launcher out so that won't be there to fall back on if you delete Apex(Launcher2) from System/app. So you either want to leave it alone or replace it completely.

So you could do a few things, First and easiest, you could just install your launcher of choice and forget about Launcher2, its not taking up much space and as long as you set your defaults you'll never know it's there. OR, you could replace the Launcher2 with your Launcher of choice. You could do this by either creating a flashable zip where your launcher is named "Launcher2" to replace the existing one upon flash, or you could use something like Rom Toolbox or other root tool to delete Launcher2 and RENAME your launcher to that, and set permissions. Then Reboot. Or adb etc.

Bottom Line is, Apex is only like 2 megs, and the Rom is already down to like ~245, I would just install your Launcher of Choice and set it as default. Apex won't get in your way :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
Damn. Looks like we'll be losing another great dev. I really want a Note 2 as well and have an upgrade available, but don't want to sign up for another 2 years until I see what happens with LTE in Seattle. This rom is so good though I can see me running it for a long time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hrffd:
I really hope to see it happen soon :) it'll keep all keyboards themed no matter what, along with app icons. So you can actually theme apps like play store and Google chrome that update often.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DataHawg:
If anyone can make this Note 2 Gallery work on ICS Reborn odexed I would be stoked. It's already been ported to the S2 but for deodexed only. I tried extracting the apk and pushing it to system/app but no luck.
