I can't remember how to check the charge percentage maybe but that's something we need to check out. I have Battery Monitor Widget but can't remember where it shows charging in there.

I was able to make backups and restores on 6.7 but then it wouldn't let me restore (and wouldn't ya know it, I had just done a full wipe... but I just flashed a different kernel from the 6.7 recovery session since I always keep several on SD and was back up in no time). I haven't seen anything get corrupted, just gave MD5 errors when trying to restore. We'll see how 6.8 does.

---------- Post added at 09:29 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------

Never seen that one before. What does it do?

Edit: My XDA would uninstall occasionally too if I let it install to external SD (default install I think). I resolved that by unmounting the external SD before restoring the backup or installing it fresh. I think it has to do with the Sd scan (on reboot), the OS sometimes takes too long and it can't find the app so it removes the links to it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sclarktay4:
nothing that's what I'm worried about when you press the app it says no application found and I don't see it listed in applications installed. I think it's some type of spyware malware

---------- Post added at 03:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:37 PM ----------

okay so I switched launchers and now the application is not there so the problem or application must be inside the Xperia launcher

4shared hit me hard with spam once.. making random shortcuts and notifications..??:confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] marksedge:
Hey if i use a stock kernel will it interfere with the tweaks on this rom ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I don't think it will make a huge difference. You should still get one of the repacked ones so you still have recovery though so you can still flash stuff.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Capp5050:
Using BMW, you'd add one of the 'ma' notification widgets; a positive charge in the 750-950 ma range (charging on AC) is a sign of normal charging (in the 20%-80%reserve range). The kernel versions with the charging issue typically would not get above 600 ma. The battery also takes longer to charge, but that's less scientific.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The Aosp Lockscreen section has been redone with some new additions too. Also added individual download links to go with the Screenshots.

Totally v2.2 ready. :)

Addendum: Oh, and sorry that some of the mod threads are so graphic intensive. I kinda like the visual thing so I know what I'm getting into. You should really cruise through the Mods/Addons sometime with a PC if you have the chance. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Yeah I like to know what it is going to look like before flashing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lagallinavecchia:
TD, thanks again... I love this update just for the fact that I can drop all those apps from google play store. The long press app kill is nice too.

Good stuff.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] WhiteZero:
I seem to get the fored app kill when double-tapping Back sometimes too. Maybe the delay needs to be increased a bit?

Anyway, I got a new Samsung battery the other day, and combine with this latest update, I'm getting excellent battery life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Sure, I can alter the timeout values for long press and we can test it out together. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lagallinavecchia:
Is there any way to change the color of the built-in keyboard / Swype? I also have SlideIt, but I just don't love the interface.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
I love you TD!!! Great work.

If you like TD's work please hit his thank you button, he surely deserves it. He has definitely made this rom and my phone a ton better!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Yes please thank all of tdunham's post, he is most deserving of anything we can give back to him. I can't imagine how many hours he spends deving and testing out all the great mods and roms he's created or worked on. Mucho thanks!

On a more dev focused note, if you've got the time to make something up, go ahead and throw it up and I'll be happy to test it for you. Personally I have no knowledge of how this stuff is written or how to create a rom/kernel/etc (but I'd like to start learning honestly), BUT I am certainly willing to be a guinea pig for anything you'd like to throw at the community. As much as the work the dev's do matters, I firmly believe testing it out in as many scenarios as we can is very important! It takes a lot of time for these devs to test the things they work on, so if we can help them as a community in that sense I think we should!

Also, been running the 2.2rev2 update with 6.8 for the day and everything seems great. I had a quicker battery drain so far but after flashing a new kernel the first charge never seems to be true...we'll have to see how everything holds up this weekend. Only complaint I have is the phone seems to get a little sluggish on me at times, no particular rhyme or reason for it though as far as I can tell. Would this be something with the new governor? Or did you make some changes to the back end in your 2.2 or the 2.2rev2, tdunham? Let me know, I'd be willing to test out a different setup if you think it would give you some results (not sure, maybe I'm the only one experiencing this). As always, thanks again. Cheers!

Edit: Sorry, forgot to ask; I'm assuming after flashing the 2.1, then flashing the gear3 tweaks, and flashing the 2.2 then 2.2rev2 updates over my current setup, the rom is still running on the gear3 tweaks? Not sure if they were affected or even nullified due to the change in governor and/or if that was addressed in the update you put out. Just wondering for my own knowledge.

And maybe I'm an idiot, but I still cant figure this out.........Is Agats 6.8 (and the previous builds) a "stock" kernel? I was always under the impression his was a kernel built from stock, but basically a custom kernel. Is it recommended to run something else? Not really sure what else is out there besides slesh's kernel. I guess because I have little knowledge on how the software is actually built this gets a little confusing for me...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
Its also kinda sluggish for me also after the update. It must be something done with tweaks. Why dont you try shifting gears?

I am also down for testing if needed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
To shift all I do is type "su shift#" in terminal emulator right? I get errors if I don't put su before it in the same line. Any way to see if it successfully shifted? Either way, I tried shifting to 2 so well see how that runs over the next few hours. I'm wondering if I should stay on agats 6.8 or if another kernel would get along well with the new updates.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
There are a bunch of themed Swype keyboards around I think. Someone help him out and post a couple.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
First enter 'su' then 'shift#' to confirm go to root explorer or es file, go to etc/init.d to see what you're on.

I dont know about the kernel. I use any just to experiment. Right now im on agat 6.5 since it came with the update.

Edit: im sure any tw source kernel would work well but let someone else in on this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
There most certainly are, I dont use swype and the search on this app fails me hardcore, but I believe I've seen a thread for

what you need in the apps forum for our phone. If you're near a PC try and search "swype theme" see what comes up. If nobody posts anything I'll check it out when I get to a PC later tonight.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Vadyr, my #1 fan. :)

Anyway, the tweaks I adapted were changed because the Agat kernels 6.x and up don't support Phakeers' shift3. But it sounds like they're not working too well for the change I made to it so we'll try something until we come up with a compromise that does. I seriously need to wipe and start over so I can't really judge what is slow and what is not. ;) I'll post something different in a few.

---------- Post added at 02:53 AM ---------- Previous post was at 02:50 AM ----------

There are a bunch already in use by other themed roms. People rip out what they want out of other roms to use for themselves all the time. As long as it's the same version in this rom, it shouldn't matter but Swype does have a few library files it depends on so if you try a different Swype.apk, backup your rom first.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Much appreciated. I always knew about the shift feature that was built in with the tweaks, never knew about the files I just discovered in /etc, with your help of course. Good to know!

Re-Calked Test Tweaks

Ok, lets try this set of test tweaks to see if it helps. Please do not use any other tweaks while testing. Try to test how well the phone sleeps as well. Tnx - TD
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 5FOOTER:
Shift 3 was introduced in 2.1 correct? If so then the tweaks from 2.0 ran a lot better for me I was getting 15 to 18 hours on it and only around 13 on shift 3 tweaks. Maybe go back to them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Good guess, that's the direction I was headed. :) Just not quite as aggressive this time around because it was affecting performance and several people complained about lag.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Back to Kill Timeout

Alright, I don't know if you or anyone can duplicate this dependably. I had it happen accidentally a couple of times too but here are some modified timeout files for you to try.

I suppose the best thing to try is to leave it the way it is (500ms), try to get double tap to force close something first, practice with it so you can duplicate it dependably and then flash up to the 750 and see how that affects it. :)

500ms = 1/2 second (default Re-Calked value)

750ms = 3/4 second

1000ms = 1 second

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Thanks tdunham. Just got home from work so I'm able to flash, I'll flash em and let the rest of this battery run through with the test tweaks and then a full charge tomorrow. If anyone else tests these out, report back! Help the guy out! Cheers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] WhiteZero:
It's also entirely possible that the anomaly we experience as the double-tap force-close is that the our finger is still affecting the touch screen. I think it might be static electricity, but sometimes my finger will be a millimeter or so from the screen and it counts as a touch. It could be just this phenomenon at work causing the force close while double-tapping.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Could be. Maybe I'll just add those to the mods in case anyone ever needs to change up since I went through the trouble of creating them. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
Yes they are definitely helpful. I flashed the 1 second delay zip and I have had zero issues. I know my touch keys are super sensitive sometimes so just going with the longest delay seems to be the best option for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Just curious if anyone has checked out the new features in the updated play store I included in the update 2.2. The coolest thing is in 'My apps/all', you can multi select and remove old apps that have been listed there since you first started using Android.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Lol I use that all the time. It was long overdue to add that by Google.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Of course you do. You're the one that turned me on to it. ;) Tnx again.

It was way overdue. I still had apps listed in the play store from when I got my first android phone and started downloading apps.

Don't get me wrong, it's nice to have a history of downloads but until now, we couldn't clear out anything. There were a ton of complaints in the Google forums about this.

Re-Calked Two Way Call Recorder

Re-Calked Two Way Call Recorder Mod

Pretty cool mod. Have fun with it. TD

E4GT used flash.

It's super effective!

E4GT grew to level 2.2!

E4GT learned record!

No idea why but that is what popped into my head :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
That is really awesome

have not seen it in any other ROM..

if I install this how could I make 3way calls?

If I decide 3 way call is more important is there a good program to add this feature to my phone?

Does the other side of the line knows if I am recording the conversation?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
You would have to flash the stock dialer to add it back. There's no easy way to have both. The other caller won't know you are recording. Of course this brings up legal issues about recording phone calls, so use it responsibly. ;)

did anyone use this test tweak? any benefits?

---------- Post added at 05:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:01 PM ----------

why cant we have both options at the same time? maybe as a standalone program or an extra bottun some where or in bring it up by pushing the setting button ?!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
It is there in menu when you place a call but I've never tested it because I don't do 3 way calling.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
I just installed the recorder patch

so with the call recorder you can still make 3 way call from the menu, we just wont have the button on screen. that is all
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vadyr56:
The test tweaks tdunham has recently posted seem to be running just fine. I had one or two instances of lag, but nothing is perfect so I can't complain. ROM is snappy and battery life is pretty good as well. I had a dip in battery life when I initially flashed the 2.2R2 update, but this seems to have set it straight. I'm running on agats 6.5 (as per flash of 2.2R2) and EL29 modem. Thanks again for the tweaks, hopefully there are more to come...or maybe just a 2.2 alpha! No pressure, this ROM is solid and you have done enough already, tdunham!

*edit* It also seems that it has 'fit to page' as the default. So, you can zoom in if you like, but you don't have to zoom out or scroll to see the whole email. I love the swipe to delete SO much more than checking a bunch of emails.

Thanks again TD.

Yes, for instance I have 4 gmail accounts. When clicking the top bar, it lags to bring up the accounts, then again to go to the account and refresh the data. Before it was there right away. I'm not talking 30 seconds, but it's a noticable lag (for us).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gradford11:
Thank you, thank you, thank you. For everything, especially this mod. Works way better than the stand alone app that I was using before. Reasons like this I will stay Calked. (Even though I always have since I got this phone over a year ago.) It has already come in handy.

Did I say thank you? :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Four accounts? Anyone else with multiple accounts having any issues or want to provide feedback? I rarely use Gmail.

You're still on an Agat kernel too correct? I'm going to have to fight with the init.d scripts because they just don't play nice with the Kuban kernel and I want the rom to be compatible for those that want choices.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
Thank tdunham

the new gmail is better, I have 4 gmails on it and it works okay.

---------- Post added at 05:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:38 PM ----------

Regarding the record button.

when the phone is on bluetooth the record button goes away and a haze of mixed call add on and call record show instead of that button. technically useless.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] caaznkid:
can someone instruct me on how to get the battery mods working?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Yeah, a lot of the third party apps don't work well with bluetooth either. Thanks, good to know.

---------- Post added at 10:52 PM ---------- Previous post was at 10:51 PM ----------

Flash them on recovery. Is that what you're asking?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] caaznkid:
flashed the battery mod then lost my battery icon so I flashed stock system ui and framework then flashed all the mods on top of that then it worked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
That's kinda odd. The battery mod shouldn't interfere with anything unless you flashed something that somehow conflicted. I'm usually pretty careful about that sort of thing. Of course, there are a couple that do overwrite each other but that's to be expected.

If anything like that happens again, try to remember what you installed first so I can take a look at it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Capp5050:
LOVE being able to remove old apps from the list. But I have to remove them one at a time. How does one 'multi-select'?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Long press the apps to select them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Capp5050:
Did that. Still can only select then delete one app at a time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Are you sure? I have the "delete" icon on the top right corner after I have selected multiple apps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dataman:
when I was on calk GB I was able to search for an app that I have installed by pressing the search button, in ICS when I press search button I can only search online. how can I search the files and apps on the device?

I also have 4 accounts. I installed the Gmail update and also have lag sliding through and browsing emails, in addition to when I switch accounts as previously described.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Multi selecting is a little tricky.

How to Remove old Apps from the Play Store List

Open Play Store, select menu/My Apps/All.

Scroll through until you find an app that is not installed (has a crossed out circle symbol next to it). Long press to select it. You only need to do this for the first selection. Then you can single tap the next selections to multi select and you can also select installed apps too (but an installed app cannot be the first selection, its true, try it).

So:

1. Long press an app that is not installed.

2. Single tap any others you want to select after that.

The other quirky thing is that I couldn't multi select beyond the screen I was on and get the remove option to work. So, I could only multi select and remove apps in little batches. Still, better than not having it at all. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lagallinavecchia:
Yes, AGAT_FI27_kernel #v0.6.5 etc etc

Also got "Unfortunately Gmail has stopped" for the 3rd time since updating.

Again, just giving feedback... thanks for all the work, TD.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Well, that's the way it is with leaked stuff I suppose. ;)

I'll leave it up as an alternative but I guess this won't make it into the ROM.

Thanks for the input too btw.

If we could get this ROM to be on Updateme (located in the app market) with a bunch of different customizable options It would be pretty sweet.

I Like to take a ROM good ROM like this and flash different mods and push apps etc. to make it how I want it. I'd build my own ROM but I can't seem to find the RIGHT info that I need. It's sooooooo scattered all over the place..

but back to the topic, If there can be a flashable option to have atleast the clock centered. Thatd be sweet.

Most of the mods I did for Blazer v0.1.5 will work on this rom (I don't know about the v0.1.3 mods, I would say stay away from most of those). The battery mods, green goblin signal bar and most of the the clock mods should work fine. I would definitely stay away from the AMPM mod as this overwrites a core system file and will probably not be compatible.

Backup your phone before flashing any of these and don't forget to thank the guy for all his hard work while you're there leaching mods. ;)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Sure go ahead. It doesn't belong to me, it's for everyone to enjoy.

Just one thing though, don't lose sight of the purpose of this rom which is to keep Calk's memory alive and in keeping with that the rom should remain as close to stock as possible. Mods such as battery, clock and themed apps should remain mods. You will always find users that will say it looks too plain but that is not entirely true, is it? ;)

If anyone does not like the look, fix it yourself, load a themed launcher or find another rom that suits you. That is, if you LIKE looking at all Dark Blue or Neon Green or ICS blue your entire ROM experience...

Edit: Sorry, not a fan of themed roms, does it show? :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vanberge:
Yeah, I'm never going to change the theme. That's Calk's theme so it's this ROM's theme.

I'll update apps, cook it back into any future releases, etc.

The extended restart menu is a subtle but very handy change that doesn't deviate from that; I feel.
