[Epic 4G Android Development] WoodmanMN:
When I first installed CM10, I had very rapid battery drain. Most of it was Google Now, which I did turn off as it duplicates many of my other items (I have a calendar widget on my main screen for example. I have windows, so I don't need a constant weather pop up, I don't travel often, so don't need places near me popping up, etc) and while I do use Voice Search, and did turn on Google Now when on vacation a few weeks ago for the places near me pop up (which was nice) it did increase battery drain significantly. I am also one of the unfortunate ones to live in an area with no 4G from Sprint due to bandwidth overlap issues, so I keep 4G off, and generally in many buildings have between 1 to 2 bars worth of signal. So in a nutshell, my battery is usually hurting for a charge by 4:00pm (around 30% or so) so I have a second battery (Samsung 1850mAh from an Epic 4G Touch) along with my stock 1500 mAh and a charger so I can swap when I get low, I also run the OnDemand governor, with minimum set to 100mhz, max at 1000 as I don't have an overclock installed. (I do miss the OC to 1200 from ICS, but JB runs so much nicer I don't feel the need for it).

All that said, applied the 10/10 nightly last night and as of this typing at 3:30pm, relatively normal day of texting and sitting idle on my desk and reading the occasional email and two short phone calls, I'm still at 43% battery on the stock battery with no other changes to my phone's normal operation.

To me, that is all the reason I needed to stick with the nightlies. Good job EpicCM team.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sendmespammails:
Thanks, 4G was on for some reason for me too.

Not sure why it was on since I don't remember turning it on. Either I accidentally turned it on or it was on by default when I installed the new version.

Hopefully this fixes the phone staying awake.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
Better battery life? :eek: Ohh sounds like time for me try to break some things and see if bbelos can fix them. It is over lmao.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RichardLSX:
For some reason, my 4G won't turn on at all. It'll just say 'turning on', then it'll switch to 'unknown'.

I didn't see it in the 'known bugs' list so I figured I'd ask.

I skipped 1010 and went straight from 109 to 1011 and it appears GMail is broken in that I can't view nor download attachments sent to my gmail account. View hangs at Fetching Attachment and Save appears to download but it doesn't show up anywhere. Anyone else with this?

Did you try reflashing gapps?
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
I'm syncing facebook, three email accounts one of which is a push exchange account, and I leave GPS on all the time. Use google now as well, and I'm getting 16+ with my 1500, typically 2h screen on. and about 18+ with my 1800mah with 2h+ screen on time with that I guess I could complain but I think that is pretty good.

QUOTE=AuGmENTor;32683208]Maybe try not giving it anything with caffeine before bedtime???? WAKKA WAKKA

Seriously though, what apps do you have running? Never ceases to amaze me people that scratch their heads about battery life that are syncing facebook, twitter, hotmail, gmail, yahoo, and gps. Not saying that's you, but I have to ask.

Did you try reflashing gapps?[/QUOTE]
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
No have never reflashed gapps, since my first nightly, but I will try it. Is there one for 4.1.2 or do we still use the old one for 4.1.1?
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
I have used the same one sine the march of the nightlies started. Believe it's from July 26th?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Andy_nu:
foreveryone having problems have you factory resetted? if not dont post all these bogus bugs and stuff thats wrong if you didnt do the install the RIGHT WAY!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
I used the 4.1.1 gapps and it doesn't work with gmail attachments on 1011. I tried reflashing and no go, so I'm downloading a gapps 4.1.2. Hope that works!
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
Wow, was I supposed to do a factory reset before the latest nightly? Guess I dropped the ball on that one. Phone works fine though!

---------- Post added at 06:07 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:06 PM ----------

I rarely open attachments with gmail, so maybe I just never noticed. Does it function as it should otherwise? Can you link me to the newest version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DJSmoove:
I'm having the same issues now with the 4G not able to turn on. I'm been running Nightly 1007 with FC09 Modem since Saturday with no problem til a few hours ago. Is this a problem or should I just reflash it over?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
Have never factory resetted before flashing a nightly but I always wipe cache partition and Dalvik cache and no other problems other than this gmail attachment problem, and that is very recent.

---------- Post added at 05:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:10 PM ----------

HUH? you are the first person to say we must "factory reset" before flashing! Anybody from CM confirm that this is the only "RIGHT WAY?" I've never heard that...and oh btw, I've been on cm10 nightlies since 0920...

gmail is supposed to give you an option to preview or save and if you preview it asks you what app you want to use to open (just this once or always), but it doesn't do that and it looks like you are downloading if you select save, but it doesn't go anywhere or not saved anywhere. The preview or view never opens.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
I think what he's trying to say is, do you believe that somewhere along the way in your flashing processes have you had a bad flash? If so have you wiped data and started clean or just flashed over and went on about your life?

There's different answers to everything in this instance.

Having a bad flash and flashing over it corrects things for some people.

While others will do that then a week or two down the road another issue will arise, which you can flash over to deal with it again or start anew to guarantee that's it not a bug in the rom but a previous issue from flashing or vice versa.

If that made any sense whatsoever. *Massive headache*
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
Ok I havent' tried a cm reflash, but I will. Flashing the gapps and the newer gapps has not fixed it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] weldsmoke:
I'm on 10/10 with no issues........runnin lf2 modem as well.....I never had to factory reset myself........
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Not turning on is different from getting the 'unknown' error.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
Yeah, it's a different process for everyone, it can be tedious if the issues you're having succeeded in making themselves annoying.

You may not have to, I've been going Pre-nightlies, without having a bad flash, though I tend to check md5sums so I've yet to ever have a bad flash on my Epic.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
I know what the stock factory reflash was, but how do you do it (CWM?) on CM and what state does it take you to? ,.i.e. could you just nandroid to earlier and then reflash a new zip?
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
I tried following his steps and have not been able to cause a force close in the stock browser yet - perhaps there is something different in the crespo-compatible code that accidentally fixes that issue as a side effect?

I'm on a clean install - full wipe in twrp 2.2.2.1, initial flash so it replaced twrp with cwm, then reflashed the rom, followed by the crespo mods (blob first, then kernel), finally finishing with kb gapps (from july, I think).

I also haven't seen any random sd card unmounts, but shinydude hasn't responded either - maybe he figured out what was causing the error (and isn't yet ready to admit that he jumped to a conclusion with insufficient evidence, lol)
[Epic 4G Android Development] goodpup420:
well for better or worse its what im runnin cus i dont wanna flash back lol

---------- Post added at 11:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:45 AM ----------

im getting the browser force close. its in the stock browser when i try to use the on screen scrolling curser to edit text it force closes everytime. im on the crespo modem as well so dont think thats the issue. i saw it on both the epic and crespo modem. i dirty flashed though so dont remember what the other dude said he did and if it were a clean install.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
Hmmm... well that's good news if it works for you. Sadly, roam settings won't stick for me, no matter the combination or order of toggles - revert to "home only" every time I back out/in. Don't know whether it is modem or rom-related, but will probably revert to FC09 and toggling the roaming settings again, then back to Crespo if they stick. If not, will have to reflash CM10pre.
[Epic 4G Android Development] milky1112:
I don't ever use stock browser lol. Got dolphin loaded. I would just clean install and go from there.

---------- Post added at 08:01 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:56 PM ----------

Just rebooted mine, and there it is roaming switched to home only yet again. Also, when i reboot.. getting a process .com.android force close.. Then my on screen keyboard is automatically voice and will not revert back. I'm wiping and reinstalling now to fix that part... Will let ya know if i see anything different.

UPDATE: Force close issue resolved. Rebooted to recovery, cleared cache, talked nicely to phone.. now all is well again on reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] di14:
Ok, I'm confused. Are there going to be like Alphas and Betas later on like CM9? Or only nightly releases?
[Epic 4G Android Development] TracerBullitt:
I know its supposed to, but my apps did not automatically reload. Is there anyway to trick my phone into doing this now? I already have them backed up and have access to them on my market account, but ...I'd rather not sit and redo all this, again.

EDIT: I suppose it had something to do with me wiping data huh, lol. What I'm worried about is redownloading the apps, using app2sd and losing space on my sdcard.
[Epic 4G Android Development] milky1112:
I am sure they will do more then just nightlys. Just a matter of time to see what they say. Not everyone wants to flash a new build everyday.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
Will just reiterate what I posted in the Nexus modem thread: I just flashed back to FC09 modem (reflashed CM10pre) and roaming would stick; flashing patch/kernel/crespo broke it again. It must be something in the nexus patch or kernel that doesn't allow roaming to stick in CM10pre
[Epic 4G Android Development] milky1112:
Unfortunatly, mine did the same thing. Didnt automatically reload. No clue why it happens. But i use this to figure out what i actually use to reinstall lol

---------- Post added at 09:28 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:27 PM ----------
[Epic 4G Android Development] TracerBullitt:
Lol, very true. I do that all the time. However, my concern is, after reinstalling the app(s), I go to move it to my sdcard and, because its backed up somewhere on there already, doing it again will take up more space. Any suggestion on avoiding that?
[Epic 4G Android Development] milky1112:
Clear backups is my first thought. I purge my sd card often. Usually i have a few things ready to flash if issues arise. Lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] TracerBullitt:
Lol, I was gonna type, "Thanx" then thought, "Oh yeah, the 'Thanks' button!"

I'll give it a go. ...Thanx.

[Epic 4G Android Development] mschmiedel:
Two issues...

Well,

After playing with the ROM for the day, I found two issues:

1. When I enable USB storage, the PC does not see the phone.

FIX: you will probably see a Samsung USB modem on the device manager wich won't start. Uninstall the driver (selecting to delete driver files from PC) and then reconnect phone. Now it works fine. Seems like a driver mismatch...

2. Cannot run su command from adb shell. I always get permission denied. (No popup on phone, checked superuser app and it works fine with apps installed on the phone, but not from the command line). Any clues on this one?

Regards
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
Did you double check and make sure there were no denied programs in SU? I know I have accidentally denied permission without realizing until I checked the app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] runngwlf:
CM9 and CM10 disable SU access for ADB. Go into settings, developer options, root access and select apps and ADB and then try again, SU should work at that point via ADB.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mschmiedel:
Wow,

Thanks alot, it was a noob question then... LOL... At least it works now...
[Epic 4G Android Development] runngwlf:
No problem, I actually had that problem on CM9 and someone had to point it out to me.

What the hell ARE Google now cards? I think I have seen a stray one here and ther on my phone when I wake it up, but then they go away elusively. Usually some weather.
[Epic 4G Android Development] henslo:
These are Google now cards , when you click search bar
[Epic 4G Android Development] klharalson:
If you set up your work and home address for example, you will get notifications about how long it will take to get home, will also keep track of your Google searches and give you drive time to places you have searched

OOOOHHHHH so it's just Google pushing a little further into my life! Gotchya!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
no...no amount of reflashing wiping is fixing this problem. even restored back to 1009 nandroid, but the problem was there too..will have to go back further or wait until Gmail is fixed.

Edit: I think it is the Gmail app that is not recognizing apps to open attachments. The generic "email" app works fine.

Another person who lives in Portland? *sigh* guess its impossible to forget about that place. May as well accept it as the city where my heart was shredded by a girl. Lol. I use to go there twice a month on my own pocket money. Living in Dallas, Texas now though so its behind me, still nice to see people who live there. I was raping that Portland transportation system, allowed me to get all over the place! From St. Johns, and all over. I'd take the Cobreeze back to bend.

I don't use the Gmail app, but k-9 email is worki fine for me on 3 accounts attachments and all
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
That seems like a smart battery choice in that rather than your phone syncing multiple email accounts their servers are doing it and you just have to sync to that one. I may have to try that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
AFAIK, K-9 does not have their own mail servers, it is just a client - same as maildroid.
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
In my opinion it is common sense though, if you come in here posting a bug or issue no one else has, then it is safe to assume somewhere along the way something got corrupted, bad dload, bad data, bad cache. At that point if you want to resolve the issue you have to assume it is something on your end. No amount of posting will fix it. You have to fix it yourself.

Hey rando - I'm running CM10 10/10 with the 7/26 Gapps. I've been able to view both medium size jpg and multi Meg xlsx attachments in my Gmail. Have you tried simply clearing Gmail data in the Manage Apps feature? I've had to do that a couple times recently when my mobile Inbox got out of sync with the server. Everything will resync in

a few mins and the only resulting pain was having to recreate my email sig.
[Epic 4G Android Development] n3m35155:
My sis in law's droid had that same problem. It was her sdcard.

Is your sdcard full or corrupt? Maybe try another and see if you can download the attachment if your current one is not full.

Fixed Gmail. It was a Gemini App problem, where I had previously tried to stop it from auto booting. Cleared that and it works. Had forgotten I did that, but thought a reinstall would fix it (it didn't).
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
After several nightly builds, I've come to the conclusion that my phone is refusing to connect to weak WiFi signals and it has nothing to do with the sleep policy not working. It's more than once said "avoided poor connection" even when I have that option unchecked.

<n00b question> How do I post that bug into gerrit (github?) so that the devs will see it? Or does this forum suffice? </n00b question>

Thanks in advance! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
1010 buttery smooth / stable here as well with minimal reboots (I was one of the few experiencing many reboots but I set up everything from scratch again, including Odin'ing back to full FC09 stock ROM), almost none, never while I was using the phone. For me, this is more stable than CM9.1. The JB features are well worth it too. Battery life is significantly better on 1010 (add in Juice Defender, which is almost necessary IMO since all ICS / JB ROMs eat data, and you'll see some great battery life). I think I'll stick with this nightly for a while until the next big update. Flashing this on all the family's Epics as well. Thank you CM10 team :)

[Epic 4G Android Development] lost_:
Have you tried reflashing? Sometimes that fixes glitches like that. I flashed 1011 and wifi wasn't working at all. WiFi settings showed all available SSIDs but wouldn't connect. Llama would force close when configuring wifi-related condition or action. Knowing that WiFi was fine in 1010, I reflashed and it worked again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Yeah, I've tried completely wiping everything (data, cache, dalvik). I've tried Odining back to stock, custom kernels, etc. all to no avail...
[Epic 4G Android Development] adamdelozier:
Did you try restarting the router, just for haha's? I have run into that before...everything else would work, but the epic wouldn't connect. A quick restart of the router and I was up and running. Could be getting an IP conflict or something. Just a thought...
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
Yup. I've run into that problem too. I must have really been bad in another life to have gotten Time Warner and Sprint. Sometimes w router reset does do it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Yep, did all of that; at work I even replaced our g access point with an n access point, still the same thing. The crazy part is, there's actually a pop-up that says "avoided poor internet connection", so I'll go to that setting and it's definitely unchecked and wifi sleep policy is set to always on...

My internet at home, though, seems to stay connected without issue, wonder if the threshold needs to be raised for minimum signal...

My educated guess would be that the option to avoid poor connection is not actually disabled even with the box unchecked, and combined with a lower threshold for minimum signal is causing it. Like maybe there is a line of code somewhere that is just slightly off, or it could be fixed using Marcusant's known links tweaks (tried that) by adjusting IP stack, i dunno...

...then again, I could just be talking out of my ass...

WiFi, USB & Bluetooth Tether

WiFi tether is working like a champ for me on the 10/13 nightly. I tried the built-in Bluetooth tether with two Win 7 laptops and got an unuseably slow & intermittent connection. I couldn't get the USB tether to work at all (yes, I selected the phone's "USB Tether" check box after connecting the USB cable). What drivers are required on the Win 7 machine to use USB tether? I downloaded and installed the Samsung Epic 4G driver but it didn't help. Is any other setup required after loading the driver?

Thanks in advance,
