Impressive

Just installed,

I was already on a kang build, but the lack of tethering options was making me crazy... LOL

As far as I've tested this preview:

* Tethering: fully works, good performance

* Call quality: as far as I've tested after coming back from a nexus modem, no issues at all with FC09

* Camera: impressive, first time I see the autofocus showing in green since CM7 (don't know if it was my phone, but now it works fine).

* Video playback: no issues with MX player. Don't know how it works with the standard player...

Let's see how battery life is... As long as it is more or less like CM9 I'll be very happy...
[Epic 4G Android Development] kvan1707:
Alright, i have an issue maybe even a "bug" to report that i haven't seen posted yet. Mind you i wiped everything before i flashed cm10 from cm9 stable.

When in the browser on lets say Google search page. If you type "something" then touch the word to get the curser. If you try and move the curser the browser force closes. If somebody could try this scenario please to verify it that would be awesome. It happens every time for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mschmiedel:
Hi,

Tried the scenario but no, it works fine for me... I flashed from a kang build (dirty) and am having no issues at all... Have you tried cleaning the browser data from the app management?

Regards
[Epic 4G Android Development] kvan1707:
I just cleared the data and tried again, with the same result. I haven't tried a fresh download or using odin then flashing. Thanks for the the reply.

If it helps, I reverted back to the 9/14 build this weekend, and I haven't noticed it near as much.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Milkman00:
Anyone had any problems sending text messages???

It could be my airrave, but I wanted to verify.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
Great! You guys do great work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Nope.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I was having problems on nightlies ~ 9/23-9/29. But that may have been me being on crespo. I restored my 9/04 build and dirty installed 9/14 and I haven't had a problem since (I am using the 9/28? crespo nitest kernel, FWIW).

Test Build 1001

OK, This build is safe for everyone who wants to use it, but I'm specifically requesting some feedback from a couple different sets of users. Please only comment on these issues if you run the stock build.

1. Users with music skipping problems. Try it out, see if it's any better. If you didn't have problems before, please only comment on music issues if by some chance you actually have problems now. I don't need to hear that you still don't have any skipping :p

2. Users proficient in the ways of QPST or other similar tools. This applies if you have done your own prl flashing, or whatever else it is you use these tools for. I have added some preliminary patches to enable the UART switch. This includes some kernel changes, and some hacking on the SprintMenu.apk. I haven't actually flashed a prl yet, but using the *#*#8778#*#* menu to switch the settings to MODEM, windows now sees the Modem Diagnostics Port (WDM) and QPST recognizes the phone connection (evident by the FFA-blah-blah number). Anyone willing to take the next step, please supply some feedback.

3. Bonus: This build also has some RIL patches to attempt to reduce some wakelocks. For anyone who regularly uses & checks Better Battery Stats and has noticed the RILJ partial wakelock, you can see if this build has a reduced number.

4. Double Bonus: Oh yeah, this build also has ISO settings in the camera. Feel free to experiment, let me know if there are any problems. :)

Have been running the 9/28 nightly with everything CM10 stock except for Holo HD launcher and Dolphin Browser. Everything has been running really well, but have been experiencing lots of small blips in Pandora over WiFi. Battery life has been just fine with Google Sync, BT, WiFi and voice/data all on all the time. GPS is off and location services are all off. Just sayin'....

:good:

Will be moving to bbelos experimental 10/1 version soon.

Al
[Epic 4G Android Development] autoprime:
QPST confirmed working. PRL write successful etc. Plug phone into computer > *#*#8778#*#* > Select MODEM under PDA > Done.

Thanks for adding this into the rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] counterfeit187:
The OTA updater works well. Used it to go from 10 01 to 10 02. It downloaded faster than through browser, but it installed so quickly I'm not sure it performed a backup.
[Epic 4G Android Development] arschend:
Here to report that I have experienced zero blips after 15 minutes on Pandora with bbelos' UNOFFICIAL 10/1 build.

:good:

Al
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Thank you for the feedback. I'm assuming that you would have already gotten some skips within 15 mins on previous builds. Keep listening and let us know if anything changes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
Downloading the 1001 patch now...

also new issues on the first 1001 I didn't have before: Wifi not staying on and unable to turn it on. Airplane mode appeared to work, but instead of the symbol in place of the signal bars I got an empty signal symbol. 2 Cold boots never made it to the Cyanogenmod circle animation (dark screen) requiring battery pulls. Clean installs too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] arschend:
Yup - prior to this I was getting skips within 5 min and lots of them within 10 min.

Al
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
I think bbelos NAILED it with the UNOFFICIAL 10/1 build! No music skipping! Will this patch be in the 1002 drop or should we just stay on this one for a while?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dougrun:
just had my first random reboot since i loaded 9.30 2 days ago. I only have wifi activated. No other indication of why. I do run advanced task killer to kill every 30min though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] I Brick Phones:
Has anyone mentioned the issue with GPS not connecting automatically when you turn on navigation?

steps to reproduce and resolve error:

1) turn on GPS in status bar pull-down

2) type in an address in google maps and then click the "Navigation" button to start google nav app

3) google nav will say "searching for gps" and there will be no GPS icon in the status bar

3) pull down the status bar and toggle GPS off and then on

4) google nav will now be able to use GPS.

i've been able to reproduce this issue for pretty much all CM10 builds. this usually happens after a reboot, and once you peform the steps listed above the issue disappears until next reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
+1, I have had the same behavior.
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
I looked for this in the settings menu but couldn't find it. Where might this be located?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Settings -> About phone -> Cyanogenmod updates. I cannot be held accountable for anything that messes up if you use it. Keep in mind, it is a new feature, there could still be bugs :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
If I'm not even accountable, how could i hold you accountable??
[Epic 4G Android Development] savior02:
I'm on the 10 02 build and so far no music skipping. But I will further test.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
The 10/02 nightly doesn't have the patch for the music skipping.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dougrun:
I used the updater to go from 9.30 to 10.2 (really a late night 10.1 but the file is 10-20121002)

I can confirm the updater did not do a backup, but updated fine, no issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Placebo effect FTW, lol. You should have let it ride a little longer to find out how many people only saw the problem because they were looking for it ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Heh. Perhaps. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
I think I'll pass on 1002 then. Maybe the 1003 or next will have it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] galahadUSA:
No more skipping. Been about an hour with Pandora on.

Of all the CM roms...this is by far the best one. Hopefully a Shadow Kernel will show up and make this complete

Great job and keep up the great work, you are very much appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
^^^^^This!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] sloheim:
Is nobody else syncing an Exchange calendar?
[Epic 4G Android Development] chrishighs:
I had sync issues with exchange as well. A clean flash did not help, this was several nightlies back.

I switched to Touchdown as an email client and have no issues syncing everything, it even queries the company address book on demand as needed. Highly recommended and worth every penny of the $20 I spent.
[Epic 4G Android Development] savior02:
10 02 is skipping for me still. Can I flash that patch over this build?
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
If I haven't missed something, then it's a full build with the patch compiled in, so sure. It won't patch your 1002 build, it will just replace it with the patched 1001 build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Yes, the 1001 UNOFFICIAL zip I posted is a complete build. Just flash it like a normal nightly. We can call it our second 'M' build :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] jctello1:
is there a reason why after flashing bbelos build, I can't install chrome?.......it says my device is not compatible with this app.........thanks in advance

Unrestricted CyanogenMod 10
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Huh, that's weird. I just had chrome installed up until a couple days ago. Uninstalled because it was taking up 50megs and seems to have bugs other browser don't have. But you're right, says uncompatible for me right now. Will have to look into it. I'll flash back another build and see what happens,, but if history shows us anything, it's probably another chrome bug.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jctello1:
Thank you for the quick response..........I appreciate it......I thought I was going crazy.......either way other then that your build is perfect......and I mean perfect........

Unrestricted CyanogenMod 10
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fester9977:
I am +1 on having this issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TaviRawr:
In the 1001 Unofficial, when you pull down the notification bar, it fades to black and the full black background of the notification bar is now a smidge transparent. :D hopefully this build, or second M (which I read someone post) won't drain my battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Yeah, that's a triple bonus. The high-end gfx from the preview build lives on in my testing builds. Dunno if you guys like that as much as I do, but we're still trying to come up with an acceptable version of that patch that can get merged into cm.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TaviRawr:
Weird problem with 1001unofficial, with my phone on the charger and me unlocking it, texting, browsing internet and what not, I noticed my phone actually drained a bit while on the charger. I know it isn't my charger or battery because I had the 1001 nightly flashed before the unofficial and it charged.

Anyone else have this problem?

EDIT: If I let the phone sit idle, it charges.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DurhamHusker:
Can I assume then that no one else is having trouble maintaining a wimax connection?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zerox20:
None here. I have full exchange contacts and cal. My exchange server does use outlook anywhere so may be why. Do you know the specfic config of your exch?
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
I'm currently not, in the areas where I do have WiMax, but I'll when I get a chance be on the look out for connectivity issues, though there'd not be much I could in terms of fixing that for you lol. It's more likely Sprint than it is your phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chaostrodamis:
I no longer have wimax for some reason.

---------- Post added at 09:43 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:39 AM ----------

Haven't have wimax since CM10 any words of advice?
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
My guess is that the addition of the high performance graphics effects (e.g. the fading screen when pulling down the status bar curtain) might be just enough additional drain to win the race against the charger... assuming, of course, that you're running the same setup aside from the version of 1001, of course
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
It would be safer to assume that no one else has access to a wimax connection, or at least that is the case with me, unless I drive an hour north.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
I have posted this many times already.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TaviRawr:
I am running everything stock. Can I change performance settings and change to CONSERVATIVE or something or will my phone reboot?
[Epic 4G Android Development] savior02:
No 4g for me either since cm10
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
As I posted to bbelos, I think the issue is the coding for the minimum acceptable wimax signal strength.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lldolendi:
I am on the 10 01 build not the unofficial and have no camera app. Just reflash? Flash the unofficial? Use updated to 10 02? Need the camera... please help...
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
The camera app is there. Either you have a bad flash, or your phone is on crack :laugh:

Are you doing a full wipe? That can sometimes cause issues if you're not, but i dirty flash all the time with limited problems, if I do have a problem then it is a full wipe and restore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lldolendi:
I used updater to go to 1002 and a camera app came up so it must have been a bad flash...
[Epic 4G Android Development] mtwow789:
My 4g also disconnects when my screen times out.

I can't reliably stream music on 4g except when I am charging.

I had my phone to never sleep while charging, so 4g works well while charging.

But while on battery, as soon as phone sleeps, the phone loses 4g and the data connection.

If I wake it up, antenna icon is greyed out and has no 3G or 4G icons. It also takes ~30 seconds to reconnect to 3G.
[Epic 4G Android Development] I Brick Phones:
+1 my 4G disconnects as well when the screen is off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dohturdima:
You probably have either disabled, unistalled or frozen the gallery app - CM10 camera app depends on it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
The code for 4G signal strength hasn't changed yet, so that can't be the cause unless 4G had always behaved this way (which is not the case).

Also, 4G isn't disconnecting as long as the screen stays on...

It's more like the wifi sleep policy - the phone seems to purposely disconnect 4G when the screen is off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rando991:
Has anybody flashed 1003? The change log says something about skip playback fix. I'm wondering if that's the fix bbleos put in unofficial 1001?
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Two separate issues. One is disconnecting when the screen goes off. The other is failing to connect or recognize signal in places it worked prior to CM10. The latter I believe is the coding related to minimum acceptable signal strength.

I have posted about both of these issues at various times.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Don't worry, I'll tell you when the skipping fix goes in (hint: not yet).

EDIT: Most likely tonight. All the feedback seems positive.
[Epic 4G Android Development] moporoco:
version: 10-20121002

modem: FC09

As soon as I try to download 1003 through the CM Updater I get:

Unable to download the update file

Anyone else have this issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] vsfh:
So since this is Official CM10, how is this separate from PhantomPhreak's ROM? Other than this is 'official'?

Forgive if this is a noob question. I didn't see anything when I searched the thread
[Epic 4G Android Development] I Brick Phones:
I was on 10/1 and downloaded/installed 10/3 with the CM updater with no issues. i'm also using FC09 for what it's worth

---------- Post added at 01:51 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:41 PM ----------

what rom are you referring to? if you're referring to this ROM, that is for the Epic 4G Touch, not the Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
Whoops, I thought you were replying to the other 4G issue being discussed at the same time - I see now where I misread :)

I also misunderstood the no 4G issue - for some reason, I thought it started with one of the nightlies, but you are clearly stating that it has been a problem on every CM10 build you've tried, right?

Bbelos, didn't we need the same signal threshold adjustment with CM7, 9 or both when 4G support was first added? Maybe that adjustment wasn't carried over into CM10?
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
Correct - every CM build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Milkman00:
Ok here is a problem I have had for quite some time (even with ICS RC9).

I have a tendency to lean the phone on my shoulder while I am talking, and often it pulls away from my ear enough to power the screen on. Most of the time my cheek presses the hangup button (GRRRRRR), but lately it has been hitting either the home button or the back button. When it does that, it mutes my voice to the person on the other side of the call even though I didn't press mute. The minute that I go back into the call screen and not press anything else, they can hear me again.

Weird right??
[Epic 4G Android Development] I Brick Phones:
so you're saying when in a call and you leave the phone app it mutes your call, and when you go back into the app it un-mutes your call? I can't reproduce that problem
[Epic 4G Android Development] socos25:
Yup same thing here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Milkman00:
Yup. Been happening since CM9 RC9... Oh well. :(

Thanks for trying.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smoke_007:
Wifi setting Avoid poor connections won't stay turned on for me any more. Every time I reboot or phone reboots while it's sleeping, the setting is turned off (unchecked). I'm on build 10-1, but the last build or two did that also.

Can anyone else duplicate the problem on their phone?

I think that setting has really helped my phone's battery while I'm at work.

Oh, also, about once a day I have to toggle airplane mode on, then off to get data working again. Anyone else having that problem too?

Thanks,
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dougrun:
I've never had to cycle any of the toggles to get data working. Ive been on 9.30, 10.1 and now 10.3

I dont have 4g where i live so its all 3g and wifi, which toggles when it sleeps but waked up fine..

also the updater downloaded 10.3 for me fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Next nightly should have the music skipping fix, and the uart switch patches for working QPST.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
Awwwww no car dock??? Hey but seriously: This isn't even in beta yet? How does that work? What part of development is this in?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Don't worry, I haven't forgotten about the docks. As far as "beta" goes, I don't believe that's a term CM officially uses for builds. They'll either be called nightlies or stable (or those special nightly 'M' builds). I can post a build and call it a BETA if you want, but it'd be no different than anything else. :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] AuGmENTor:
Lol, no need. I was curious as to how it worked as far as knowing the way progress is tracked. Since that's the way I've seen it done in other cases I just assumed it was across the board. Thanks for your efforts.
[Epic 4G Android Development] glori2:
does the usb debug work? ums work?

cause in my phone the booth not work, plus issue deepsleep, always sleep of death..

cm 10.3 with ns4g modem and nitest 30 aio patch..
[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Please remember that if you have altered your install of cm with custom kernels to post bugs in those threads. It is not epic cm fault you changed what they created and now your phone sleeps and dies. I have not had the sleep of death issue since bbelos special unofficial build on stock everything
[Epic 4G Android Development] xeks:
How do I go back to stock CM10 if I'm on NS4G and nitest? Just curious in case I want to revert.
[Epic 4G Android Development] styles420:
I just checked the "avoid weak signal" option, and sure enough, it was turned off again after the reboot. I'm on Bbelos' unofficial build from 1001. I generally keep wifi off when not in use, which saves even more battery, but if it's the only way to get data in an office building then I can see how that feature can be useful.

Per your other issue, I haven't had the data drop-out on a daily basis (none yet on this build - it has happened on previous builds, but only once a week at the most). How is your average signal strength in your area? It's possible that the problem is tied to a failed attempt to reconnect after losing data due to weak signal, which fits with my theory that you leave wifi on for the same reason... I can't test that theory further at my end without driving several miles further into the boonies (I suppose I'm lucky in that sense, lol)

[Epic 4G Android Development] czechpunk:
Alternately, in the NS4G modem thread, there's a link to another thread with flashable modems. Flash FC09, then flash cm10 and gapps, wiping cache and dalvik of course.

---------- Post added at 05:27 AM ---------- Previous post was at 05:25 AM ----------

I have the exact opposite problem: I have the option avoid unchecked but it still avoids poor signals. I also have WiFi on set to always on, and yet during deep sleep it will disconnect anyway. It's as if it was opposite day on my phone...
[Epic 4G Android Development] chaostrodamis:
I have access to 4g in my area. But my 4g says unknown whenever I try to connect. I post this many times also. Any leads.?

Edit: just played catch up with the thread. Sorry for continuing to post this. I see it has been made known and that I'm not the only one with this issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
Unless I am mistaken (stock users please correct me), this is only a known issue among 3rd party mod/kernel users, which means the bug report belongs in another thread.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slybarman:
I am running stock modem and kernel. I do not get the "unknown" error described, just the other two:

1) disconnect during sleep

2) failure to acquire / maintain 4G signal in places that were available before CM10.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dropple:
On 1002 there's quickmessage

On 1004, quickmessage was gone..

---

Edit: bad install, sorry :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] bbelos:
I just noticed this behavior on my phone this morning after trying to turn it on and then rebooted. Setting was unchecked again. I hadn't noticed before because I typically leave the setting unchecked anyway. I'll have to see how that setting works, it must not be saving/reading the value correctly between reboots (well, that's rather obvious :p ).

Ok, yeah, this is the known issue being reported. I'm still looking into this. It's a little hard for me to test because I'm on the very edge of 4g coverage so I typically don't get a 4g signal anyway.

The only thing I can recall regarding signal strength is this patch which made adjustments to the signal strength value for the sole purpose of displaying proper number of bars in the status bar icon. Although it has no bearing on the radio's actual signal strength as far as holding a connection. I will have to dig a little deeper, since I was not yet on the CM team when 4g support was originally added.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pvtjoker42:
i think regarding the 4g signal strength threshold, it was changing the dB levels that it would actually maintain a connection at. Think Marcusant had a "how to get better 4g signal" thread that basically adjusted the range of dB that our phones would aquire and hold that signal..
