I did that on my original battery, but its crazy that I get so little time on new battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
yes.... but 10 hours vs. 30+ hours...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kuchma777:
I don't get that much time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rehpot1:
Yeah, that didn't work either. Made standard and tar backup in A5 JB, both rebooted when generating md5 sums, mobile Odined to EL26 , wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvick cache. Tried restoring A5 JB backups from EL26 recovery, got md5 mismatch error. Flash A5 JB, flash gapps, start, then reboot into recovery....md5 mismatch for both.

BUT, while still in recovery and before setting up A5 JB, made successful backup and restored it before setting up A5 JB.

Back to the thread mines. Thanks for the suggestion.

I wish I knew what the trick is for all of you getting good battery life because I really like the rom. Unfortunately I'm going to have to wait longer to use it. My phone just won't sleep. It is constantly awake for no apparent reason and I can only go a few hours before needing to plug in.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sugewhite:
I didn't get a reply to the catlogs I posted so I went to sprint and swapped out the battery. He took my battery out and laid it flat and it was warped! The tech says ”these batteries do this”. The reasons for the warp vary per the tech. I will post back if I get any shutdowns.

Back to ROM info now......

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stank656:
i honestly constantly switch back and forth between the two only because the cm10 was very laggy and choppy compared to this one ... i think this one is very more stable and smooth but the cm10 rom is constantly updated... which is good.... its currently pretty smooth now and has many more options in customization....... but to sum it all up.... i would say my facorite out of the two is this one.... only because of the reliability i feel out of running it.... better battery and smoother feel...... even though i wish it had more options like cm10 i'd choose this one :good:

You know there is a search button here on the top right corner to search this thread or forum and most of the recent questions asked here have been asked hundreds of times already. Same old questions every day! Becoming very annoying to say the least... I got one word for all of you SEARCH!!!

I am not directing this just to you there has been a few offenders on here asking for forbidden links and how to flash ROMs in general. There are too many useless questions in this thread. If everyone would search here and elsewhere before they would ask here there would hardly be any questions.

BTW... I don't have any wakelocks to answer your question. I had an issue with media bug media storage process running wild I disabled it with autostarts app and everything is working great ever since I get over 20 hours with over 3 hours screen time on my tiny 1500 mah battery. I read that certain people have unique issues with their phones therefore it's nearly impossible to find any universal solution to please everyone and their phones. Just my 2 cents. I think I got all my issues worked out and my phone is very smooth runs a lot better than my ICS AOKP used to run and even Blazer GB. Everyone seems to report different experience running this ROM. This ROM is ALPHA for a reason!!! Even though for a lot of us it's a solid daily driver better than anything available. For me it's a lot better than anything else out currently.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btrcp2000:
dont get your hopes up.

got a new battery too, old one spun. tried six modems, placebo, alpha4, alpha 5, found test build 0907, nothing can get me past lunch with a battery. android blames the screen, better battery stats blames los, cpu spy says its deep sleeping plenty. really dont care anymore, just need a working phone for more than 3-4 hours

stock ff18 sucks too. EL29 okay, but too much money invested to never update

moving on to either nexus or maybe photon for better radio. god knows what actually matters, but I will give sprint until I have LTE (prob 1yr+). If it still sucks then, they are done as an independent company, because no one in their right mind will continue to pay for this mess

Use stock fh13? Plenty reporting stellar battery improvement over ff18 ota.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bcparker:
OK don't crucify me, its a simple question that I already searched.

I wanna go back to ICS or GB for literally 2 minutes because i forgot to turn on GPS before I flashed this AOSP JB so now i can't get a lock. I know I can odin back to either stock ICS or stock GB, but I am wondering if I can use mobile odin to flash agat's ICS TW recovery and IMMEDIATELY boot into recovery (i know I won't be able to boot to system since its an ICS TW recovery on a AOSP JB ROM) and either reflash my TW ROM and/or restore my backup from it, then boot to turn on GPS, get a lock and then mobile odin agat recovery again (the TW ROM i was on had a built in one) and flash back to this ROM, for me, that would be SO much faster than Odining to stock because I have a mac, and I a dont want to borrow a PC or dual-boot/us a VM. That should work? right?

Edit: the one thing I noticed that is more just anything than annoying is that the cache clears on reboot, so it needs to optimize every time.. but not a big deal.. just takes time that's all

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] WhySoSerious_058:
When flashing this is it okay to use cwm6 (recovery) and 3.0.15_AGAT+AGAT_v0.4.2#2 (kernel) or should I flash the el26 kernel? If I'm reading and understanding correctly that kernel has fixed the emmc bug??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rehpot1:
Cool. You do backup of the JB Rom after Mobile Odin to EL26?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] igorb81:
I thought that was the only safe way of doing it with ICS and it's no different for JB. EL26 is still magic. I use EL26 for my modem still and it works great on JB. Actually I get much better performance with EL26 then any other modem I have tried. Excellent signal. I haven't tried the newest one yet but... I am not fixing anything because it ain't broke.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flammenwurfer:
So I think I'm going crazy. I've been having crazy battery drain issues with this rom ever since I installed it. It was never going to sleep and battery was dying super fast. I re-wiped and re-flashed, didn't install all my usual apps. Just installed the necessities and same problem. I started trying different modems yesterday. Flashed EL29 but still had battery drain issues. Flashed FI03 and had the same issues....until they just went away. I flashed FI03 modem yesterday afternoon, battery continued to drain quickly because the phone wasn't going to sleep. Then out of nowhere, last night I put it on the charger, took it off, and then an hour later checked it and it was sleeping and acting normal. Overnight and so far this morning it is still sleeping like it should and the battery life is much better. I have no idea why, because I didn't do anything else.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gazzuk:

I've had the best success with FF18 coming from el26. Haven't looked back since lol

---------- Post added at 10:16 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:13 AM ----------

The only solution I'd say is reformat your phone. Sounds like you've got a mix of modems and cwm formats. Just put your phone in downloaded mode and Odin back to rooted el26, install cwm el26 and reflash. Make sure you also use calks wipe all after the 3 wipes and prior yo ROM flash. This should help.

Also I just for those that want better battery life. I'm getting about 4 hours of use with hours of sleep. The only tweaks I run are. -25 under volt, CPU @ 1000mhz, CPU dual core sleeper, battery life saver app from market.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flammenwurfer:
I have gone into cwm and completely wiped system, cache and dalvik multiple times. What exactly is different about doing what you suggest? Is Odinning back to rooted el26 etc...really necessary?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
You only need to odin back to stock el26 kernel with cwm to flash the rom.. not odin the whole el26 rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flammenwurfer:
Why is that necessary? What is the difference between doing that and wiping and flashing from Agat's recovery or CWM 6 that comes with this rom?

I'm not doubting you, I'm just curious why it makes a difference. :) Thanks for your help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
You can flash from the Recovery provided by This ROM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gazzuk:
The only times I've gone into dload mode and Odin back to el26 is when my phone has crazy issues that are persistent between each flash. That's what's worked for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Its all upto you. Do whatever you want..lol.. Most prefer to flash new ROMs from el26. I hope you have read about the emmc super brick bug when it first came to light. Since then there are kernels released that have patched up things which will not trigger the bug.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bcparker:
Just so every knows, i have already went back in forth between both JB and ICS ROMs just by mobile odining the Agat Kernel 0.5.4 and recovery and flashing my ROM through there after wiping and i have had no issues. Just know your ROM wont boot to system if you are on a recovery that is based off of an OS other than what you are running, so you will have to make sure your ROM has its kernel included before you flash, and I know a lot of them do.

Can someone tell me anything about this kernel included in this ROM? I wanna flash the lowrider gapps, and I wanna know if I can just do it with the included recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
Been running this rom for a full 24 hours now and have had to recharge three times. I'm getting crazy battery stats as on the chart it shows an increase(charge) in the battery throughout the day.

right now I'm at 6h40m with 23% battery left....

screen at 51% @ 1h8m

android system at 11% with CPU time 3m43s, CPU foreground 18s, keep awake 8m 16s,

Android OS at 8% with CPU total 6m19s, keep awake 24m34s

I have better battery stats installed and have a dump is anyone wants it. but this has to be the oddest rom yet for battery stats.... no apps installed other than Gapps and google reader.

Seems like something is hidden and running the battery down.

One more update: I see a bunch of "raw kernal wakelocks" do those mean anything....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalek_Caan:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
So I love this Rom, been running since darn near the beginning I think and wouldn't go back, I do ok with the battery issues, but seems to vary with no change in use or settings. Thinking maybe something I'm missing. Posting some info from battery stats and need some assistance in interpreting. Maybe something easy that will stand out for the experts that is effecting my battery life.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bcparker:
I love this ROM. I have had zero issues that I didn't solve just by searching. Battery life could be better, but it it's really not bad, and this is without using phaekers scripts yet. In order to solve SMS issues (couldn't split sms and automatically converted to MMS) I flashed the "Lowrider Gapps" in recovery (Google it). Also I am using SuperSU instead of Superuser because superuser was acting funny by continuing to prompt for permission even after allowing.

Great work, and I can't wait to see what improvements are on the horizon.

I'd like to chime in my experience with build 9/7-1. Everything is running great no lag, and the necessities are all working on the phone perfectly. The battery life on the other hand is really bad. According to BetterBatteryStats, the phone is in deep sleep 47% of the time but as I am writing this, I am 22% battery with 32 minuets of screen on time in just under 2 hours. Probably going back to Alpha 5 or wait for a new test build.

Try getting off 4g.

I experienced the same "sending" hang until I realized I was having 3g data los (gray bars). After cycling AP mode, 3g came back and my mms was sent.

Perhaps it can only send thru 3g, not 4g, and the logic to temporarily downgrade from 4G to send isn't implemented yet. Just my theory. Good luck.

I just downloaded and installed music1.apk or something like that and everything is working smoothly. A lot better than stock music app. Looks like the one I have is a little older. It's 2.2.16 it does not have a widget which I sort of miss but not a biggie considering that I have fully functioning music player. Winamp didn't work too well and I am not too crazy about poweramp I used to have it but never figured out why all the hype. It looks messy to me. I am more into clean and simple apps. I like Holo styled apps and MIUI dark apps work great for my taste buds. Apparently there is an issue with the newer version that was ported. I can confirm that this one works flawlessly for me. It finds all the music unlike the other ones. :laugh: I usually have to change minimum size for music files that get filtered out since I listen to audio files that are a lot smaller than normal mp3 songs. The default is too high and a lot of my needed audio gets filtered out. So keep that in mind if you have tiny audio files that you are after.
