mms

Hey had same problem looked it up in this thread and did the following

Navaigate to data/data/com.android.providers.telephony/databases

delete the telephony.db (it will recreate itself)

reboot

If this doesn't work for you try deleting both the telehphony.db and the journal but deleting the first worked for me now I can send mms of pictures and long text messages. Good Luck!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theguz4l:
Hmm I want to try the test build, but I am hoping that the pub. release will be soon as sbrissen said the other day.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sbrissen:
Those with working GPS, can you try using a GPS testing app from the market such as GPS status and toolkit?

Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
This was within seconds of opening the app, and also indoors
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tweeker404:
Agreed. Volume fix would be the best ever for this. Other than that love it.

How can I spend up my 3g running slow don't have for 4G in my area 3g is faster on stock rom but this rom makes it slow
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Both 3g and 4g run slower on newer non-stock roms (for me and many others). I tried CM9 Beta 1, and 4g was slow as well. Somebody called it the "ICS bug". Really pisses me off because both roms rock, but I need 4g faster than 600Kb/s because I don't have wifi. It's really odd because upload speeds are double the download speeds. Looks like I'm stuck on Caulks gb...which isn't necessarily a bad thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
Do you still get a quick lock without Wi-Fi enabled?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] robertm2011:
It takes me about 30-40 seconds to get a lock without WiFi.

@sbrissen, tried GPS Status, couldn't get a signal, let it run for about 3 minutes...(?)

I'm wondering why I can get a lock on Maps, but zip on GPS Status...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
Indoors, about 30 seconds to lock. I'm on 9/14 test. If I've had a recent lock, it's just a few seconds. Same results with wifi off, and 4G on and off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
This one was about 5-7 seconds outside on 3g, no WiFi on, and no 4G in my area

Deleting something in the sprint telephony or whatever.. my apologies for the noobness.. im just trying to send long texts if need be with no bs, i can send mms pics no problem(the mmsfix.zip worked)...but when my sms.messages gets too long it converts to a mms message and will not, i repeat will not send..

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ReaganElephant:
Bump! Is there an additional zip to flash for this option? 190 dpi looks really cool.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
Use Rom toolbox editor pro, under performance tab, select build prop editor, then change the LCD density
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nitronet:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalek_Caan:
yes
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] milky1112:
Ro.sf.lcd_density=190 (Stock is 240) this is the line your looking for. Never used rom toolbox editor, I use ES file explorer, just give it root access when you use it.. and RW ability. (Just adding on to what you said Kevin)

Do we have to wipe data coming from cm10?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alexthearmo:
I know this is AOSP, but Sbirssen has included some of the CM10 features. Does anyone know if he included the new SMS popup feature in his Alpha 6 build?

Can someone please report back? Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
Does ALPHA6 differ from TEST 9/14? I see the size differs by a few bytes. If so, is a data wipe needed between them?

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theguz4l:
Just got A6.. thanks SBrissen!! Only issue was when flashing it, it rebooted before I could flash GApps... causing weird issues with my google account. Reflashing GApps seemed to fix it, but never had seen that before when flashing over the top.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garbonzo134:
Anyone have the md5 for a6?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] third son:

Hi JB flashers!

There was an issue with the standalone version of youtube acting up on alpha 5. It would close spontaneously. Is this still an issue in this release? I have been following this thread with great interest.

Thanks sbrissen for pressing on!

Anyone know the answer to this? :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] neodorian:
Is the recovery included with Alpha5 sufficient for flashing Alpha6? I did the whole "ODIN to EL26, wipe, flash, etc" when going from ICS to Alpha5 but this is my first update since then. I'd rather wipe dalvik/cache and flash a6 over a5 if possible but I will go through the wipe process if necessary.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] primo523:
Next time flash the rom and gapps in the same session
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
You can flash A6 from the A5 recovery (it is EMMC safe). You'll probably need to wipe, they changed the mount roots.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Crsdr37:
Not in the change log havent gotten any texts since flashing though. And if your on 9/14 I just wiped cache and dalvik no need for full wipe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SOHKis:
that feature has net yet been implemented
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattneedshelp:
Just flashed a6 a few minutes ago, media is draining my battery like overkill. Haven't started any apps since initial flash, but I'm waiting until it settles to see if there are any changes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
Yay. Error 7. In root of external SD. MD5 verified on device. Error 7 is melting my brain, I swear I get it 2 out of every 3 time I try to flash something.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] amot:
How do I get GPS working on this ROM? I turned it on but when I use my Navigation, it just says SEARCHING..... I downloaded gps status & toolbox and tried to get a lock but nothing...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Are you using rogue recovery? If so don't use that. Use some other safe ics recovery/kernel or better yet use el26 stock cwm.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Need to flash EL29 ROM via EL26 CWM, get a lock...keep GPS on, go back to EL26 CWM recovery and flash ROM as usual.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wraith404:
No, I'm using the recovery from TEST 9/14. I had the same issue going from 8/30 to 9/14, had to re-download it like 3 times. I haven't tried EL26 this go round, but it did no good last time. I have like 6 safe recoveries on my phone, tried them all. This time I just gave up and flashed back to my known good 9/14 to download again. I don't even wife dalvik anymore before trying a new download, because if I do it's just that much longer to boot back after re-flashing the good rom. It would be nice if the error 7 would at least be thrown BEFORE trashing the current bootable system :).

It just seems like their is no rhyme or reason to this. Maybe my SD card is buggy, but I think it's happened after saving to internal as well.

Edit: Success after downloading again, still flashing from the 9/14 recovery.

That's the hard way, setup the CM temp gingerbread multiboot/directboot. You get to keep your data partition on the way back.

Also, for any one on 080912 I am having issues where my phone indicates I have service but I can not text call or use data. I have to use the airplane mode to trigger it. I am on modem FG31. I was on FF18 and had the same issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
No new updates have been made. He is working on switching the kernel base. Once that is done I think he will be moving forward with new builds.

Alpha 6 and "known issues"

Anybody know if the speakerphone volume issue is still present with the A6 build?

It's getting hard to keep of the "known issues" and fixes, even reading through every post on all 200+ pages of this thread. Seems like there are more than just the "video effects causing FC and Sprint updates" listed on the front page with the download, and it might save a lot of redundant questions on the forum, and server time if people knew upfront the most common issues with the ROM before downloading and flashing.

I also lost several sms as well as a long time for calls to come through, if they did at all on Alpha 6. I also was unable to get any sort of GPS lock even after sitting with GPS status running for about 15 minutes outside. However I never got around to trying the fix where you bout back to a GB ROM get the lock and flash. When I did drop back to Blazer 4.0 today I was able to get a GPS lock in about 30 seconds.

This weekend when I get some more time I'll try some more fresh installs of Alpha 6 since I love this ROM. Going back to GB made me really appreciate some of the awesome features that JB has.

Is there a way to change the DPI without causing the system to no longer boot up again? On A5 I tried it three times with LCD Density Modern and each time it caused my phone to crash and no longer boot. I wouldn't mind trying with A6 now that I'm on it, but if it screws up I really don't want to flash again.

Any known workarounds or programs you know work?

I don't know what Sbrissen did in Alpha6 but battery seem to be behaving better than before. Let me wait a little longer before further information.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] milky1112:
Go into build.prop (using editor, i use es file explorer) ro.sf.lcd_density=240 (which is stock dpi) change that number. Save, reboot. Should fix without issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] third son:
What is the advantage of changing the dpi? I must have missed something
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gazzuk:
The main advantage is better video and web resolutions. The UI also just fits everything properly. I use 160dpi with text set to huge.here's what it can look like

I use nova launcher and holo locker for force landscape. Autoresize wallpaper for full wallpaper fitting. I get my pics in the Minus app. I use ROM tool box pro for all ad block, battery tweaks, CPU, and dpi settings.

Great work as usual sbrissen. Thank you! :beer::beer::beer:

Alpha 6 / FI03 - ftw
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] milky1112:
Can make screen larger (icons smaller) by adjusting the dpi. Stock is 240, some like 160 (which i think is nexus stock or note. Something like that)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BBlazed62:
I had the same problem all day yesterday while still on A5. I got home from work, wiped, clean installed A6 and now everything is working fine. Maybe it's not a problem with the rom.

I use ROM toolbox lite and it works great for me. I never had any issues. I have my phone set at 190dpi and I believe it's the best for this phone. It's just the way it should have been from factory. I personally have above perfect vision and it kills me to look at over-sized UI. In my point 240 dpi looks gross.

I am about to flash PA 2.13 JB ROM that is based on CM10. I have been watching it for a while. I want to see how it runs. It looks rather interesting with tablet hybrid mode.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Download the rom, download gapps 7/26, update profile and prl, get a gps lock, boot into a safe recovery, wipe cache, dalvik and data, flash ROM, flash gapps.
