I didn't think its a ROM issue. I think its something on the network talking to my phone. I want to identify what it is and if I can, it may help others with changes to router configs or what not.

---------- Post added at 11:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:07 AM ----------

Entirely agree with you and I didn't think it was ever a ROM issue. wifi_rx_wake is more than dhcp. They don't go away by setting static addressed.

supplicant scan timer => I didn't think about that one. I'll play with it.

EDIT: I raised supplicant scan timer to 9999 just to test and I still see the same wakelocks. I'm sure the supplicant scan *can* cause them when it runs but it doesn't appear to play a part in my wake locks.

Post #87. Thank you very much. Funny how the search didn't turn that up for me...

Yes, that works GREAT.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daevion0:
Is the emmc thing fixed? None of my apps could access it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
I have this problem too. I just messed with the levels and will post if it helps after I get a shot with the phone outside.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] liquefiedvapor:
Search didn't work for me either. I found I was able to do about 10 below what that poster had and be satisfied with the brightness.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] havoknight:
Yes. Wiped data, caches, used Caulks full wipe, and installed CM9 along with gapps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
9999 isnt a valid timer number, and the wakes will never go away... change it to 240, and it will lower the amount of wakes you get...

and wifi_rx_wake wont wont ever go away either, unless your wifi stops receiving data... it has to wake up periodically to check for incoming packets.. but by setting static IPs you can lower that wake_lock

Using phonewithnoname and everything seems very stable..

I was looking at the goo.im database last night, I saw there was a few new builds, I was checking to see which was the newest, and I saw phonewithnoname had 0 downloads.. so I had to flash it.. ;)

No problems at all, nandroided already too..

I am on phonewithnoname too. Everything seems to work except for my google talk. I am unable to sign in (it thinks it signs in but my user name is grayed out and none of my contacts load). I did come from a clean wipe, and have reflashed gapps along with removing my user accounts and re-adding them.

Is anyone else having this issue?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t0mmyr:
Is this where new nightlies will be discussed?

FWIW, dirty upgrade from Beta 1 to EXPERIMENTAL-d710-PhoneWithNoName.zip stuck me in a small boot loop that left me in CWM recovery (as I usually do with nightlies, no clear cache, no clear dalvik, just 1st boot is upgrading android apps). Rebooting phone kept placing me back in CWM, luckily had a nandroid from yesterday and restored to that successfully.

Could have been a bad download last night, didn't check the MD5 sum.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jasmith86:
Just installed over alpha6 and everything went incredibly smoothly.

Thanks to all the devs who have been working so hard on this!

gtalks seems fine here. reflash gapps?, clear data on gtalk and resign in?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skadoo323:
gtalk is working for me as well. Just need my wifi to work and I will be set!

also not sure if others have mentioned this, but contact specific ringtones are working for me.

Do you have some bad data in /data/misc/wifi/wpa_supplicant.conf or something? Works flawless for me.... Try deleting that and let it recreate it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skadoo323:
Thanks for the suggestions. Tried that, rebooted, and still can't connect to any wifi networks. The phone sees the networks, even asks for the key, just never connects.

---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:46 PM ----------

So looks like it connects to wifi AP's setup with a WEP key, but won't connect to those with wpa/wpa2. Changed the settings on an AP to test it out. Let me know if others notice this as well. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] calisro:
Logcat may help.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
Umm... no? I use it. Haven't used it heavily on this run but even so. I just used an app called auto start, turned off mobile data when not using it, turned on AP mode when in bad signal and use minimal brightness.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GiantJay:
What do you mean hold back under settings?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
Settings/developer options/kill app back button. I also have sync off till I need it. And I don't under clock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Aganar:
So this one's happened twice now. While streaming music from my phone to my BT car stereo, the phone dies. Not a reboot, but a complete death--I can't turn it back on and have to do a battery yank to get it to boot again. Very bad to have this happen; I obviously can't battery yank while driving.

Is there some kind of log I can look at after the yank and reboot to try to figure out what the hell happened?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Stand by is awesome so far. I left the phone for 22 hours on my day off, picked it up to find it woke maybe twice and was at 87% battery. I expect it to reach 48 hours with an hour of screen on at a minimum. 31 hours was the best uber light usage I ever got with 1.5 to 2 hours screen on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Disable dial pad touch sound. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
YUP. I just hit 36 hours with 2 hours on screen time. Ya just gotta know what settings to change and when to change them. Now that I know this, I cant wait for my 3800mah battery to show up in the mail tomorrow
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dansidebottom:
So you aren't using your phone for work email or anything like that... Just a straight up phone? No way I could turn sync off or airplane mode on in low signal (pretty much anywhere in the warehouse) and still use it as a smartphone. Can't wait to see what you can make that extended battery do though!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RussellEstridge25:
No I use it for e mail, internet and everything like that. I travel a lot for my job all over the state and when I get in a real bad signal area and am going to be there for a while at a job I turn AP on. I only turn mobile network on when I need it and it saves sooo much juice. Its all toggles in my notification drop down so its not like it takes more than 2 seconds to toggle these options.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] glmooreky:
Ok. I did as you guys suggested, and here is the reply I got from the Dev of the app in question (Mobile Grid Client):

"It is a ROM issue.

All devices with at least a cell network module or WiFi should be fully compatible with MGC. The problem is that some developers state the devices internally as phones even if they don't have a GSM, UMTS or WCDMA module or vice versa.

TelephonyManager.getPhoneType() [1] has to return the right value for the specific device.

PHONE_TYPE_NONE for device without cell network.

PHONE_TYPE_GSM or PHONE_TYPE_CDMA for devices with cell network.

TelephonyManager.getSimSerialNumber() and

TelephonyManager.getDeviceId() also have to work correct.

There's also the possibility to include extra code in MGC to override this behavior but as it is a defect in the firmware and custom ROMs can easily be changed I don't want to do that. Sorry.

Please get in contact with the developers, I'm sure the will fixed that in a minute.

BTW: I'm running CM9 on a Moto Defy with no problems."

Is this problem fixable via nightly update, or will we just have to roll back and stay with an earlier release of CM9?

EDIT: Or could I possibly extract the file in question from an earlier working build and and just replace it in the Beta1 rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] calisro:
when do you get the error starting the app? I installed it and it launched... I'm on the newest nightly (newer than beta1)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] traskers:
Underclocking, etc. supported or do I need a different kernel? If it is supported with the stock beta kernel, what governors are available?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] corygibbons:
Random MAC addresses?

Can anyone else confirm they're getting random MAC addresses with this? I seem to get disconnected after a while of inactivity. I can reconnect, but I always show up with a new MAC address.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skadoo323:
GREAT FIND! You exactly hit the same issue I have been having with my wifi issues. My one router doesn't have MAC filtering, but my other one does. The one with the MAC filter would never allow the phone to connect. Then after seeing your post I checked the MAC address of the phone and sure enough it was different.

I rebooted my phone and exactly as you said, the MAC is different.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] te45a:
I might be wrong on this but I think beta 1 and shabby's nightly use different kernels, so app might work on nightly but not on beta 1, again I may be wrong on this so somebody that knows more please help.

Hey, I just came from CM10 Alpha after a directory delete corrupted my SD card.

I one-click ODIN'd to FF18 rooted stock.

Updated PRL.

Updated Profile.

Got a nearly instantaneous GPS lock through Google Maps.

Mobile ODIN'd EL26_StockCWM, booted into safe recovery

Did a full wipe/factory reset

Wiped Cache

Wiped Dalvik Cache

Installed CM9

Installed GApps

So.. I believe I have a clean install..

I've tried FasterFix, GPSFix, GPS Toolbox with ADATA.

I've also tried the CM6 GPS Fix:

$ su
# stop rmt_storage
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p13
# dd if=/dev/zero of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p14
# reboot

GPS Test always shows 0 for everything. I can't get a GPS lock for the life of me on CM9/10.

What should I do? :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
This are my steps. Never have any issue getting fast gps lock unless I'm in a bunker.

Follow the standard cm9 install procedure from the blog.

Boot into cm9

Mobile Odin the cmw directboot recovery from the blog

Flash the el29 temp emmc rom from the blog

Update prl

Update profile

Get gps lock using maps

Reboot (you'll be automatically back in recovery)

Don't wipe anything

Flash same cm9 version as step 1

Reboot normally

Profit?

Good luck.

Glad you guys found it and my memory wasn't very far off. On new release roms like this I like to look at everything but often forget exactly where I saw what.

On a related note this has been running great.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
Cool, profit!

The above procedure should work on any ics or jb aosp roms. Whenever you need to update prl/profile or get gps lock, just Odin the directboot recovery, flash the temp el29, do your updating, and just reflash the same aosp rom to come back. None of the user data will be affected. Enjoy.

Randomly, my phone is still losing its data connection. Toggling airplane mode doesn't help, only rebooting corrects it. Asides from a clean install, Google hasn't helped me out much... anyone got tips?

Clear your cache...sometimes that helps.

Mine'll do this as well but usually it's something that I notice when I wake up in the morning, that I have no data service. I can usually fix it by turning on my wifi, letting it connect, then disconnecting wifi and I'm usually good to go.

I know that won't work for everyone, or everywhere (especially if there's no wifi by you) but if might be something you can try in the right circumstance.

Flashed this over alpha 6 without wiping dalvik or cache partition. Many apps have disappeared.

Internal and sd have flipped again, even though "use internal" is still checked in settings> storage> storage configuration. Yes I do have a microsd.

What do I do now? Already tried re-flashing beta 1 again over beta 1with wiping dalvik and cache, still didn't get me my apps back.

My suspicion is that the apps that are messed up are the ones that I moved with apps 2 sd.

Should I flash back to alpha 6? What do I do to fix this?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gg_99:
Awesome work. Eager to hear everyone's feedback and to try it out myself this weekend. Amazing work and a giant thank you to all involved.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dudebowski:
Lets all keep in mind that a certain developer WITHOUT A D710 IN HAND decided to take an interest in the cluster#^@% that was Samsung's kernel source, fixed emmc bricking, and made CM9 truly work for our device. To date, he himself has not flashed CM a single time to this device, as his has been in Sprint's warranty claims dept. since forever...Thankfully he found the help of some brave souls that would flash all of his experimental builds to test his nearly daily brews and report their findings.

Even still, it wasn't a single-handed achievement, Team Epic has all put in their work, and it's really amazing what happens when a team of capable people put aside petty differences and actually work together...a quality that seems to have largely evaded this community. This sort of thing doesn't happen without your support.

Everyone should seriously consider thanking the OP post and voting this thread up to newsworthy... and if you feel so inclined, to consider donating to the project for a job well done.

Not just built from source... rewriting source. Samsung, your GPL violations don't go unnoticed.

If you intend to keep app data...

http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/cm9-install-guide.html?m=1

"Before you Install CM9: Preparation

Install AppBak from Market, run it and save a list of all your apps.

Install SMS Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your SMS history.

Install Call Logs Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your call log history.

If you are coming from a different custom rom, you may want to boot into CWM5 recovery and make a full Backup. You will need this backup later if you decide to go back to your previous ROM and data."

might be a silly question but would Shabby's 9/6 nightly be the same as Beta 1?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dudebowski:
previously, CM mounted

internal card to /emmc

external card to /sdcard

new default as per upstream CM:

internal @ /sdcard

external @ /external_sd

best thing you could do is find your external and internal card data, and move the entire contents of whatever directory its in... to the proper new directories. That, or you could full wipe and reflash. This new standard will not change.

Also please be aware that there's a toggle in systemsettings>storage>softkey menu>storage config. This is also a headache because the mountpoints changed and therefore this toggle's functionality changed.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thenimboo:
So you're saying that I should've treated this like a completely new Rom?

****. I messed up.

I've been flashing the alphas on top of each other without even wiping cache or dalvik, and everything has been wonderful.

Ok, so I ****ed up...Your comment told me what I should have done. If there anything I can do now? Switch a directory or anything?

For example, I found reddit news folder in the android>data holder, even though the reddit news app claims it isn't installed.

Also, I tried flashing back to alpha 6 and cwm kept aborting.

Also, you never told me what I did wrong. Just told me I should have backed up before. I have most backed up on Titanium, it is just a2 week old backup, so I'd prefer fixing this rom, as everything else would perfectly.

Do seriously, why did it not work? Many other people here report dirty installing worked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] third son:
Deep sleep is back for me! Awesome!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dudebowski:
For some it worked, for some it didn't. If you're coming from a build older than, say... a month or so the chances of a borked storage config are much higher.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigbird5788:
In the Blog they have indicated that Beta 1 has undergone extensive changes in order to comply with CM Official status (Extensive changes to Kernel especially). I am assuming that this is the reason why you did not see the same results flashing over Alpha 6. Unfortunately I personally do not have the answer to restoring your app data. That question might best be answered by the CME4GT Team that devoloped this rom, since they will be familiar with the changes between A6 and B1. But the OP does have an Installation guide indicating that any instalation of B1 should be treated as a new ROM (So yes, you are correct). You may spend more time than it is worth trying to restore that data, but I guess that is a judgment you will have to make on how important that data was to you. Sorry I could not help more. :(

What are you guys using to actually get your GPS lock when using the temp boot? I launch Maps but before I can get a lock it forces me to set up my Google account. I use Google's two-factor authentication and a device-specific password for my Android (a password you can only see once at the time it's generated, although I suppose I could write it down), which complicates matters for me, especially when trying to flash back to CM9. I put the GPS Status apk on my sdcard, but that means I also have to download ES File Explorer from the internet in order to browse to the apk. All in all, a fairly complex and time consuming process for getting a GPS lock, and I worry about installing these apps while in temp boot. Any thoughts on how I might simplify the process? Admittedly it's mostly the use of two-factor authentication on my account that makes this a pain. TIA.
