Did a deep sleep test last night while I slept (no pun intended) .. Went from 41% battery and when I woke, it was at 24%. Not too shabby over 7-8 hours.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Regarding the battery issues, something is definitely off.

I woke up and my battery was at 48%. Now I could have sworn it was at 36% when I went to sleep unplugged. (No I didn't drink or drug last night) :p. So my battery apparently went up while unplugged.:eek:

I rebooted it, and it then said it was at 7%. Now just typing this is went from 7% to 21% while charging.

It's pretty obvious we (or I) am getting incorrect readings. I would take any battery life reports for Alpha 4 and throw them out the window. I know it will be fixed but its pretty dang hilarious how quirky It's behaving.

BTW...Wireless Tether is working awesome with 4G!

Update:

Battery is now draining faster than it charged. 66 to 56 in under 10 min.

Received two instances yesterday and overnight of LOS only on my Data. Voice has remained up at all times ...

Data went out twice, and to resolve - I had to disable mobile data and re-enable data. I have 5 bars, and it said 3g next to the bars, so I did not think anything of it until I noticed that my e-mail had not checked in since 12:59AM and my weather widget was not updating. Also tried going to cnn.com and other websites in my browser to confirm.

Come to think of it, when I had 5 bars, and it said 3g - the bars were grey and not the usual blue when data is connected.

Did not see this issue on Alpha 3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igorb81:
That usually happens when the battery is not calibrated. I am not saying that this is the issue here. I had similar issues in the past with different ROMs and then after a while and battery calibration it would reset to normal. I am sure that there a some issues with battery life/usage from what people are reporting.

I am still holding off right now with flashing at this point since it may not be as easy for me. I use Page Plus (Verizon) service on my Epic touch. My guess I will have to flash the data fix for ICS to make my data work on JB or even more. I am not sure if anyone have tried JB ROMs for their phones flashed to other carriers other than Sprint. I am still on Blazer ROM (GB) at this point and get phenomenal battery life and everything is working smoothly with Rogue hitman kernel but my kernel is responsible for some wake locks I have been getting lately. I tweaked the crap out of my phone.

On the side note... Did anyone confirm CPU Sleeper working on JB or APN Shortcut app?

What's interesting is that some of you reported your camera app being capped at 3mp and some have no issues with full 8mp. I can't really grasp this. 3mp would not work for me for this weekend and that is one of the main reasons I'm holding off right now and possibly lack of data for me on Page Plus until I can figure out the fix also the battery life doesn't sound too promising at this point especially considering my tiny battery that Sprint screwed me with. My phone came with 1500mah out of the box. I bought 2100mah for Nexus thinking that it would fit just like T-mobile one but found out the hard way that it's too long and not just a little thicker as I thought it was. Anyone looking for a 2100mah battery for Nexus? lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syrkel2:
Yep worked. Thanks

I/O - GoV

I enjoy the ROM and have been using it as a daily driver now for some time. Im Missing the SIO / pegasusq mix i had in CM9 i really made a difference in Battery life for me. is there a plan to added them to the Kernel?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] agentfazexx:
Anyone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nthornton1990:
No I'm pretty sure it happens to most if not all of us.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igorb81:
Did you do clean install? I've had this happen to me on Nexus S a while back I can't remember what happened. It usually happens the first time after you boot after OTA update as I can recall.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Also happens every time you wipe cache and dalvik. DK over at Ac posted how to get rid of that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
first time anyone placed it!

try a battery recalibration. there are clearly issues but yours sound worse.

I have a theory that I've seem others share.

the phone seems to charge fast, like ridiculously fast. and discharge a bit too quick will screen is on. maybe it's all related. maybe JB was just programmed by aliens. I dunna. :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] third son:
So how is this build working

Sorry but too many pages to read...I am dying to flash a JB ROM and was hoping this was working well.

Any input or a link to how it's doing?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gershee:
check the OP. the first post.

flash it bra.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Craig7220:
I'm using it all the time now and it is running great. Flash it and see.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
Yeah it def charges too fast. Something is off. Sbrissen any ideas?

There's no emoji support in the text messaging
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bts0004:
I noticed this exact thing, too. I had full bars and the 3G icon (all gray, tho), but no data moving.

I don't remember it happening before I put A4 on. I toggled airplane mode to restore it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theguz4l:
Hopefully sbrissen can take a look at it. A3 never had this problem either. Sorry, don't have any logs yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] te45a:
anyone running 0824-1 yet? if you are how is los?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Downloading now. Gonna flash and test it out. I know he fixed the 4g and data toggles. Not sure what else was done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Okay after I flash gapps and reboot, I go to use the quick search bar. It walks me through the Google now crap and if I opt in or out I get ”google search has encountered a problem" fc. After that, quick search is completely broken. I tried lowriders jb gapps, no go. Wiped, reinstalled ROM and then the regular 7-26 jb gapps...same thing.

It didn't happen until after the google now setup in both instances. Ideas?

One quick Q

Do I need to have CM9 installed first? I have the EL29 kernel now on GB. What CWM is necessary?

OK three questions.....thanks for any info.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ih8crackerbarrel:
I've had it happen on a3 once or twice.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sbrissen:
rotation and made some battery tweaks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Awesomness. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gmfeny:
Lol I was just gonna say I haven't seen anybody mention rotation but I was taking forever to rotate... I. Going to try the new version now

I just wish you and chris41g had the transformer infinity
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
I have always flashed an ICS or JB build using the EL26 kernel/CWM recovery...with no issues.

But from what I have read, EL29 is just fine as well.

I have always felt safe using EL26.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BBlazed62:
Am I missing something? Where is the link for the latest? Has this replaced the previous Alpha 4 link on the first page?

Edit: This was supposed to be in reply to scarmon's post saying he downloading 824-1...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Saito2185:
Flashed last night with newest Gapps,loving it so far, noticed with Sb's kernels I have less LoS then other kernels, and battery life is doing great. no issues with rotation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Rotation is way way better. Everything seems nice and smooth. Way to go SB.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Yes you are missing something and no one here can have the link.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BBlazed62:
I see, just making sure I wasn't missing something due to some fault of my own. I am loving this rom; saved me from ponying up for a GSIII. Just eager to try out the latest! Thanks again sbrissen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
Downloading now, probably won't be able to load till later though, can't wait. Alpha 4 running great short off the few issues others have brought up, 8/24 can't be anything but better. You rock Scott.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theguz4l:
Want to try it, I'll wait for the final Alpha is out though. Thanks SB!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] themisterwilson:
4g tethering is working fine for me on the latest cm10, which as far as I know is using the same fixes and on par w or this ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Alpha5 is up...thanks OP.

Will be flashing soon...keep up the awesomeness SBrissen
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] A random package:
Damn, haven't even had time flash A4. Thanks for thee heads up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Flashed Alpha 5 and gapps 7-26 jb...once again I get this message when I try to use the search bar or button (Google Now):
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] INDIANAJONNY:
Note I got no rotation at all on a5. Before it was just wonky.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
I flashed the 8/10 gapps and no issue on Google now. Not sure whats different between the two
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Just to confirm... do we have to flash JB Gapps again on Alpha5 coming from Alpha4?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pauzzz:
Did you try calibrating in the advanced tab in settings?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] b1g.p0ppa:
Where did you get 0810 gapps? Latest on goo is 0726. Are you using LowRider's?

---------- Post added at 04:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:30 PM ----------

Probably, have had to every release so far. Plus, it doesn't hurt to flash them even if you don't have to...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cw00dw0rd:
AMAZING!!!

You are amazing I can't get the updates to my phone fast enough! After fixing LoS and GPS (flashing from GB el26 w/lock) I am totally happy then today I will be updating twice. Excellent! Just Excellent! Thanks for all your hard work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] b1g.p0ppa:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] INDIANAJONNY:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] syed239:
Can't wait to try this out when I get home! How's the battery so far on A5?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
No. I found them floating around the forums. Google search it. It does break 720 and 1080 recording. The video camera still records but you have to force close the camera to get it to stop recording.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Rooster85:
Why? Why? Why? Do we have this question every time a new release is put out?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sjsharksfan420:
I was just thinking the same, the roms need AT LEAST a full day and a few charge cycles to really see .. just test yourself if you need to know so soon.. :)

Sent with my Epic 4G Touch on CM10a4.3 @ 160 dpi using Tap@Talk Pro v2.2.7
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Croathlete:
Got a getprop error trying to install the ROM. Would my CWM version 5.0.2.7 (Rogue Recovery) have something to do with it? I was trying to install it from Calk's GB 3.0 (EL29). I used Calk's Format All before trying to install the zip.

Thanks. Can't wait to try this ROM out.

EDIT: I checked the MD5 and they matched.

EDIT2: Does the ROM have to be on the external SD card?

EDIT3: Only thing I can think of is it didn't copy correctly from PC to Phone. I'll run the MD5 on the phone once my nandroid is restored. This is why you don't try to flash right before you're supposed to head out for the night!!! =)

EDIT4: Checksums were equal. Grrr
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theguz4l:
Silly question, but since A5 now uses the superuser app for root access, is it okay that SuperSU and Superuser co-exist together? Should I remove the old one? (SuperSU)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I was scared to flash this until today. So far so good, nice and smooth. No gps though. Should gps be working? I got a lock right before I flashed this and my gps worked when I used to run aokp.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MiguelHogue:
Just updated to the Alpha 5....Love that We have Choices of New Governors :D:D:D:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] somesayinice:
simply awesome

This ROM is so smooth and so fast. It's simply well done. Thanks so much for making my phone new again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
Guys please pardon my ignorance but: After this rom is flashed is there a working recovery or do we have to continue to use EL26 CWM?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
Also has built in voltage control. So you can use setcpu or voltage control
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SantinoInc:
What do you think is a good setting to save some battery but not compromise too much performance?

Also, since I have your attention: does this have built in recovery after flashing?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Omfg. I formatted my internal storage, one clicked back to el29 stock, odined to el 26 recovery, wiped, wiped again, flashed alpha 5 and gapps AGAIN and STILL google search breaks. Excuse me while I go hang my f'in self!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DonutGrunt:
Could be a bad download, happened to me whenever I sometimes try to download ROMS over 4G.

I have flashed the last couple of Alpha builds with the Touch recovery and it works (The one that comes with the AOKP MS 6 ROM)

Even worked with Alpha 5

Alpha 5 is amazing, 4G tethering works with the program Wireless Tether for Root users, granted the computer can't connect to it if I have wifi encryption activated. It works however if there is no encryption and just enable Access Control.

Definitely my daily work driver now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smmlee:
Selecting Automatic under "Settings>Wireless & Networks>More>Mobile Networks>System Select" does not survive a reboot. I also noticed the same behavior on PhantomFreaks CM10 alpha4.3 build. I have searched both threads and cannot find any discussion/comments surrounding this problem I experienced and was wondering if this has any impact on the Airplane mode bug. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] theguz4l:
Yes, having same issue changing it from Home Only to Automatic. It removes my option after reboot.

Also, the default Music player FC after you play a song, reboot. Once you go to play another song after reboot, the app FC. Clearing data fixes it after each reboot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] charlie81:
ok i guess this menu bug just wont go away on ics or jb lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DonutGrunt:
I'm assuming you mean the menu bug that randomly press the menu button.

This only happens when the signal is low or suddenly drops. Happens all the time in the basement of my house, as connection is spotty so it's constantly connecting and dropping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] charlie81:
mine does it when im in a good signal area when i text really fast it pop up and i hit send half way thru a message said sorry 4x today lol no biggie this rom overshadows that lil thing

Can't wait to flash this tonight :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] renesdone:
if i have alpha 4 right now can i just flash over it or do i have to wipe all that stuff in recovery? yes im a noob :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
You should be able to wipe cache and dalvik and flash the ROM and Gapps and be fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] renesdone:
cool thanks... but just to confirm...wipe dalvik and cache, flash rom and gapps and i shouldbe able to keep my app data and stuff

?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iUseJuGGZz:
this ROM is awesome bro soon as i seen you added theme chooser i hopped right on it hahaa cameras definitley messed up like you said but not a big deal thanks

Edit:annnd i just noticed it doesnt read my external SD right...like it shows 2 files (.zips) and thats it anybody else see this or just me?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Yes. It won't wipe data since you are not wiping data in recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] F3L1XZS:
Yes, dalvik and the cache don't store any apps, only data. First reboot will always be long after wiping both, so just a heads up. And if All else fails, then wipe system and dalvik and cache. Also, if you're really that worried about your apps, go out and buy Titanium Backup, because it will save your ass sooooooo many times, that it's not even funny.

How do I flash this ROM?? Is there a special procedure I should know about??

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] diablo311:
yeah if im not mistaken u flash it just how u flash all the alphas

you go in recovery wipe everything and flash away

or if on previews aplha 4 u just updating to alpha 5 go n wipe dalvik/cache

and flash alpha5 +gappssssss 5.5 :-0
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
What have you people done!!

But yeah use those instructions
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chrlswltrs:
Rotation working, 4G working better, battery life is a ton better so far. Alpha 5 is amazing.

Also there is a link to 8/10 gapps a few pages back. Google now works fine and gallery syncs with Picasa and instant upload works. Definitely recommend everyone use the 8/10 gapps someone posted a few days ago.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sader2202:
That's it? Just flash it like any other ROM, on any ICS kernel, on any ROM? Weird for cm9 people had to do the rain dance it flash it. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
I always flash a new ROM using EL26 recovery... never had issues.

What do you mean by built in voltage control?

I have been using setcpu to lower voltage -50 for the last few builds. Am I missing something with built in voltage control? Thanks in advance!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
That's what I mean. When it comes to undervolting you have two options. Load a module like Tegrak Ultimate does or have native undervolting and use an app like setcpu. This has native. I didn't realize he had merged that into the kernel a few builds ago.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Yeah think he meant like in setcpu it will have a voltage tab.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Nope you are not.

I think scarmon is saying that you can use those apps to do that which you are right, I was able to do before.:confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yellowman82:
Dont you think i did that before posting this? Its not showing up at all not sure if its a mobile issue when searching but owell i dont have a pc atm.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scarmon25:
8/20 or 8/10. If you meant 8/20 I need to do some searching myself.

GPS doesn't work. I got a lock on Ics And went back but no dice. Works on ics.

Clock also force closes, as well as the music app.

Quick question..I'm pretty new to aosp ..I know on tw ICS , you would hold down the home button and it would have a task manager button to close out apps you left running...and I know on this ROM I forget to back out of apps, and use the home button (use to the task manager on tw ICS) so I know I leave apps open..so my question is do you guys use a third party task manager or am I over looking something in the settings of this ROM for that feature
