Frustrated so far, but enduring...

Tried upgrading from Alpha 6 to Beta 1.. did a nandroid backup first. After I flashed Beta 1 and rebooted, it stayed in the "Samsung Galaxy SII" start screen for 15-20 mins. I pulled the battery and went into CW, only to see that the nandroid backup I did was nowhere to be found in internal or external sd.. so I lost a lot of data.

I'm redownloading Beta 1 now to see if it was a corrupt download. Sigh :(

I flashed this recently and absolutely love it. I had CM on my Evo 4G and never liked any ROM more. The ONLY thing I am having an issue with is tethering on 4G. I looked through some of the posts and am sorry but I don't see if there is some kind of a work around for this. I get an error message every time I turn on tether, on any apps such as barnacle or root tether. I've even found the old open garden app which used to be the only one I could get to work on 4G. If anyone has any info on this issue any help would be greatly appreciated. Thank you in advance.

Beta 1 is safe people. Everything works. Phone with no name was good. After that GPS went to ****. I wonder what Chris meant by experimental? Hmmmmm. This is a work in progress. It is free. If you have issues stick with stock or look at the known bugs and see what people are having issues with. Chris is doing more than he ever needed to for us. Along with shabby and sbriessen. And whom ever else is involved. Nightlies are purely test builds. I flash them because I know the risks. I take that risk. Found out that some of them are wonky. So back to what I know works. Different radios help for GPS. Beta 1 has giving me solid GPS. Thank these guys for giving us great work towards a official CM release.

Same problem here.

After 9/20 all of my native text notifications stopped coming through. I had to set GoogleVoice to notify me.

Just flashed this over the last alpha on my girlfriends phone. Several apps such as zedge, swift key, etc are refusing to work without an SD card, which she does not have. This was not the case on the last alpha build. I've searched for answers but can only find things pertaining to moving apps to the SD card.

Any ideas?

You should of done a clean install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nooomoto:
Sorry I misworded my post. It is a clean install. I was attempting to flash a safe recovery while alpha 6 was on her phone, things went bad and ended up starting over from stock. Factory reset and wiped all the caches as usual when I flashed beta 1. I mentioned alpha 6 because this wasn't happening on that build, sorry for the misunderstanding.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RandallOfLegend:
with regards to notifications, I saw that my gmail and some other notifications were turned off after doing a TB restore. Could be a quirk of how TB works with Beta 1. I would assume the other people who have mentioned this may have something similar. I only had to open my apps, and re-enable notifications.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hammester:
Give this a shot it worked for me. If you have a sd card reader on your computer copy the files from it and save to your computer, then format the sd card. After that's done move all the files back from your computer to the SD card. If you don't have a sd card reader then you can try hooking your phone up to the computer but not sure if it will recognize it.

From Danton's post

"By default everything on mine installs to the external card. You can change this by going: System Settings > Storage > Menu Button > Storage Configuration > check "Use internal storage""

SeaPack wouldn't boot for me. It kept hanging on the cid boot animation. I confirmed it was a good download with MD5 before flashing. Back to Lost... btw the only issue I've found in Lost is that GPS doesn't want to lock.

I tested the GPS with GPS Test and it seems like the phone can see the satellites, then all of the sudden the satellites disappear. Eventually the phone reacquires the satellites but it loses them before it can get a lock.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
For those wondering, here are a few answers while I have a quick second..

the experimental builds have been a mess for a few reasons..

1 since i have the phone now im working on a lot of issues.

2 4g doesnt work because im working on fixing the slow speeds

3 im working on a new type of storage switching that doesnt switch the mount points... look for it in Advanced settings now instead of storage.

4 im rewriting large portions of the kernel, in case you happen on a build with no signal, no radio, or just plain doesnt boot.

So with that being said, proceed on the experimentals with caution, i try to label ones that im pretty sure wont work, or arent reasonably sure will work as such..

anyway, back to hacking
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bpcrshooter15:
I've seen a few people mention this rom being close to "official". As someone new to the custom rom scene, could someone explain if this is in reference to the build being deemed "production ready quality" or will this be transitioned to the cyanogenmod team-proper and the epic 4g touch will be "officially" supported on the cyanogenmod site? Just curious, thanks.

Awesome. Haven't been lurking the channel as much lately, glad to hear you finally got a d710 to work with. Also glad to know my storage problem isn't just my phone. Thanks, Chris.

I really appreciate having development continue for official cm9 ics, there are still too many of my personal necessities that hasn't been updated to support the jelly beans. Thanks to everyone in team epic, as well. it will be nice to have a worthy jellybean option to migrate to once the app developers catch up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
If "production ready quality" refers to being able to run the rom as a daily driver, then this is already there. Don't pay too much attention to alpha, beta, milestone, etc markers as the level of finish is subjective.

The cm team for our device is already working on it and are posting in these threads. I believe the idea behind being "official" is having our device drivers/kernel documented to some cm standard. Having this documentation will help in future builds and cm updates (ie cm10). Someone please correct me if I'm wrong in my understanding.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dudebowski:
The storage config checkbox seems to be opposite of what you're looking for. Most apps are programmed to use a particular directory (usually /sdcard/AppDirectory or /sdcard/data/AppDirectory) instead of letting the system point it in the right direction. This problem is in part, an Android-wide app development standardization issue.

Your best bet is to uncheck that box in order to have your internal mounted at /sdcard. The reason the devs left it backwards is because a fresh install would not have that box checked, and therefore leave the default configuration as internal@ /sdcard.

TiBackup is probably going to restore apps to the /sdcard, whatever storage device your system has mounted there.

Instructions aren't 100% clear, but if you're coming from stock you can use the Direct Boot CWM5 discussed in the first step of initial install. Follow the link for those instructions and use Odin to flash it (load Odin, put phone in download mode (power+vol down), plug it in (odin should say ComX Added), put the direct boot cwm5 file in the PDA slot, hit start). You will (probably) not be able to get back into your current rom from there but you'll be able to continue with the steps to flash CM9.
