Glad you guys like it. I spent the last few days reading every post from the last month and a half just to make sure I didn't miss any of the common questions. Stole a little of Ruj's original FAQ, (got the OK first of course) but for the most part its all brand new. Now we just have to hope the noobs start reading it. Split it into seperate posts so everyone can link to the appropriate section. I may not dev, but I can train dammit! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sniper:
Very nice :)

You might want to add a little more to the dpi section. Theming isn't broken at all until you go past 180 (might be 190 I can't be certain right now). The only things that will be affected are the phone dialer and calculator being smaller and the market not showing some apps. The dialer and calculator you can use as is or use replacements. The market can be made to show all your apps if it eventually starts not showing them with a simple mod. I've applied that mod to the market in my mods thread/my website. I think that's all for now :p once again, great thread so we can point people somewhere to look :)

Maybe you can add the visual voicemail issue too. Maybe provide a link to the updated stock visual voice mail app. I know some people don't use google voice.

Great job with the faq!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
I remember seeing that a few days ago, but didn't take note of whether a fix was made. I don't use VVM. I only use Google Voice. Shoot me a link to the post and I will get it in there. Post 4 is going to become the current version issues section.

Also I added snipers post about the dpi changes to the appropriate section.

Google play won't let me update.

I can't get my apps to update via the Play store. I'm currently on 1.0.4.9, stock kernel and modem. The only mod I have is the clock in the status bar.The prompt says Error, update for "street view on Google Maps" could not be downloaded due to an error. (Error retrieving information from server.

Make sure to sync all your Google account stuff (contacts etc.) Then remove your account, reboot, and readd account. I had this problem once, not ROM specific.

You don't need to delete the account, just turn of sync and reboot, then clear data in Google framework services and market then turn sync back on.

overall annoyances

So I did the update and reset everything to how I like it - except I can't get back to the TW calendar which I use for work appts. I loath the ICS calendar. I've downloaded the file for it and flashed it in recovery but the calendar is still ICS. I've even switched over to the TW launcher but still ICS. Argh.

Does anyone know how to turn off that damned low battery notification? -- some ROMs have uninstall files for it but I can't find one in Blu if it exists? And this might be more of a general question but it there a way to have alarms NOT go off while you're on the phone. I set a lot of alarms and reminders for appts but I'm on the phone for work and the alarms go off while I'm talking - who thought that was a good idea. Finally, I still have the Market - and can't figure out how to get it updated to Playstore.

wifi trouble

I've been trying to find the answer to this and have been do research on finding a fix. When my wifi is on it will connect and disconnect continuously, is anyone else having this problem or know a fix. I'm running 4.9 everything stock expect for a few mods. I had the same problem on 4.8 I thought updating it would fix it but no luck. It doesn't seem to matter what router im connected too either. I really love this rom but if i don't find a way to fix the wifi issue im going to have to switch :/ and I really don't want to, so any help would be huge. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AestenD:
Not sure about most of it... but you do have the playstore. He just themed and renamed stuff because the name playstore is stupid :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Still haven't adopted the name change?... It's been how long now? I didn't like it either at first.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] In_da_buff:
Ok - it ran like Playstore and had updates and all the new apps - and it synced with Playstore on my computer. I never saw anywhere in the ROM FAQ where it mentioned that was the case. Market or Playstore - both are meh.

Thanks for clarifying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AestenD:
It is just a name. I kinda prefer market myself, but to each his own. If you are ever in doubt just check version number.

Correct. I just changed the name. I can not stand play store. And will not be changing mine ever

I helped my cousin install Blu Kuban a week ago. He is now telling me that his apps icon (little arrow to access all apps) is missing. He is two hours away from me so i can't get my hands on his phone to mess with it myself. I had this rom before for a good 5 months and never ran into this problem. Do you know what I should do to help him out? ( pic is uploaded to see what I mean)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Long press where he wants the app drawer shortcut. There should be an option to add the app drawer shortcut. I am not on apex launcher so can't tell for sure and apex is the default blu kuban launcher.

In nova launcher, app drawer is under nova actions which you can see after long pressing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
You could also set open app drawer to a gesture. You should be able to add it back by adding through the shortcut menu

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Longball:
My very first flash of a ROM. Thanks to a few answers in the Q&A and I was off and running. This particular section here has answered just about any question that may have come up. Been running the BluKuban for 2 days now and I am a believer !!!!!! I am delighted to have made the switch from Gingerbread. Thank you so much Mr or should I say Master Rujelus. Simply put everything works ! My GPS has been reborn. Even my 4G service has improved. Can't thank this team enough. It's a beautiful thing you have shared.

Final thought though ...... I have never seen the "data" icon toggle before up on the notification bar. What does that do ????
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ImEVO:
Data is to turn your 3g off and on
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
Basically the same thing as airplane mode, but you can still get calls and use wifi. Helpful to slow battery drain in poor reception areas.

I flashed sleshepic 1.2.3 kernel and noticing that I can't use ex tweeks.. is this kernel set up that way to where nothing can't be adjusted?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
The tweaks are designed for the Kuban kernel. It has many more options available than agats
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ImEVO:
Understood thank you I just had bad lagging with kuban kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AestenD:
When you say lagging, what do you mean exactly? And to explain a bit more about extweaks, support has to be built into the kernel.

MHL/HDMI

I'm pretty sure I've read soemwhere that Ruj doesn't/hasn't tried HDMI out with this ROM but i'm curious if anyone has been able to get this to work on 1.0.5.0. I thought I saw that a previous version worked but cannot remember which one if it ever did. I haven't needed to try this until now but unfortunately cannot seem to get it to work. Thanks for any help
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ImEVO:
Going from window to windows or even sending a text..it lags and choppy.. I tried playing with governors and no luck! So I flashed sleshepic kernel and seems to be OK so far.. but when I go to ex tweeks it says no data found! I was wondering what was going on with that?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] In_da_buff:
So I updated to the current version last week. My Webroot SecureAnywhere app found 14 threats. All core apps that came with Blu. It lists them as trojans with a file tag of Android.SMS.FakeInst.

Browser

Email

Exchange Services,

Voicemail,

ExTweaks

Dropbox

ES File

Drive

Google+

Translate

Gmail

QuickPanel Settings

Google Voice

and Twitter.

I uninstalled Voice and re-downloaded from the market. It did not trip on a 2nd scan. I'm sure that Rujelus22 didn't bake in trojans but why does my antivirus think they are bad? Is it b/c they don't have some kind of stock coding? Just wondering so that I know why. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
Why are you running antivirus on a platform that doesn't get viruses? They are all nothing but placebos.

That being said, they probably don't match the size or signature expected by the AV. Everyone you listed is a themed app.

Long story short, it means nothing, don't worry about it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] In_da_buff:
ok - so just the BluKuban theme that trips the antivirus.

But not sure what you meant about the platform being virus free. I use my phone for lots of mail, apps and downloads. I know that there has been malicious apps out on Android in the past so how is that this doesn't apply any more? In the past, I've had other apps and emails that triggered the antivirus that I know were "hinky" (Chinese MP3 downloader app, spam emails with attachments)

A lot of Rom's remove the Sprint proxies. Have you tried adding them back in? And are you changing modems at all? As a side note, if .5/1.5 is slower than your 3g, I envy your 3g :p

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan0260:
Does anyone know about the beats audio that is supposedly baked into this rom? I honestly can't tell a difference in the sound, and see no settings to change anything. Can anyone confirm this and if so what exactly does it do or change?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AestenD:
It's basically equalizer settings that are baked in at a system level. There aren'tt any settings to change. And unless your using a good pair of headphones, wouldn't really notice a difference anyway. Phone speaker and most ear buds etc aren't high quality enough.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] moparfreak426:
How do you odex a ROM? I want my data speeds on wifi and 3g to be faster, this ROM..... Might be kernel, our modem though..... Data speeds dropped bad

Force fed a failcake via Swype
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AestenD:
Data speeds dropped..... compared to....... what exactly? More info would be useful.

However in counter point to your question, odex wouldn't really have anything to do with data speeds. General perceived smoothness? Overall snappiness? Yes, odex would have an impact.

I used to be a part of the odex fan club when running strong Steve's odex'd Rom. I miss it greatly. But he went to the gs3 before making an ics based Rom. That's why I came to ruj's blukuban.

What might actually be the "cause" of the data speed difference between Rom's could be Sprint proxies. Try adding them back in and see if makes difference.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] miketucky350:
I have noticed poor data speeds with any source built kernel. Bypassing sprint proxies to me slows down too. My test is that on stock kernel all is great. Don't know why. I will say this ROM is the best. Great job rujelus22. We all love your work
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AestenD:
While on one hand, difference between a stock vs source kernel shouldn't make that much difference..... it is at least plausible.....

Test would be blukuban Rom, manually add back Sprint proxy, use stock kernel like one of the various agat.....

Versus blukuban Rom, manually add back Sprint proxy, and source kernal like the blukuban default.....

I love the way this from looks and all the options, but I've never been able to get it to run correct so I always end up going back to calks 3.0. I always wipe everything, then use the format all and then flash the rom. Yesterday when I tried again with the new version I got it all set up, than when the battery was around 60% it randomly rebooted and came back up at 6%. I've read and read and can't figure out why every version I've tried does that to me. Could it be my phone just doesn't like ics? I never have any problems on gingerbread but I'd like to be able to use the ics apps like chrome and the newer Gmail.... any suggestions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jm1080:
Loving this Rom, this was my first time flashing rom and it is very nice. Although the only issue I'm experiencing is when I go to Rom Updater from settings and download the DigitalClock.zip it does not download it, just says to restart to install, but it never downloaded so I have no clock. So when I downloaded other add-ons such as clockpackage.zip, stock_sounds.zip, and led_charge.zip, they downloaded fine and phone restarted and looked as if they were installed correctly, but when I look for sounds for the stock sounds in notification sounds they are not there...Also when going back to Rom Updater and checking the mods it shows as if they were not installed?? Anyone have a clue on how to successfully install these? Would appreciate any help!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] J_Whit85:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
The clock you mentioned is a widget not an app. You need to download the alarm app on the updater. Try flashing the other mods again and see if you see any errors when it scrolls through in recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jm1080:
I downloaded other add-ons that are non apk files and still does not install. The way I installed was to go to recovery and install from zip using internal storage and locating the zip and installing from there.

Also what modem is recommended to use? On the EL29 modem that it comes with I get random menu presses when 3g is on.

I have this phone flashed to boost and the native voicemail apk does not work on this one, is there a way to get it to work on this mod? If not guess I have to stick to an EL29 based rom.

Also another thing that does not work on this rom is the headphones when plugged in they do not work. And I can't seem to edit the notification bar from blu kuban to something else. Is there a way to edit this? Other than that it is great!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
Sounds like you have a bad install. Wipe and reinstall. Never heard anyone have issues with headphones. The sprint voicemail app is not installed by default on the ROM. Look at page 1002 of the ROM thread for a link to it.

Not trying to be rude but I refuse to answer the modem question. Search "what modem should I use" and see the responses to that question.

Yeah so just do what you do when installing a new rom. If using the update file that Ruj has then don't wipe data. If using the FULL install zip, then wipe data.
