Why continue to flash cm9 nightlies when the maintainer isn't working on cm9 anymore? lol. This thread is more or less complete without active development! stick with you current build or move to CM10. I digress.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] balistic2:
I would move to CM10, but that headphone volume bug kills me. I live in my headphones, and walk around a loud city (Chicago). I have been flashing all the new CM10 releases and testing them out. Sadly volume is a dealbreaker for me :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
This cm9 beta 1 build is pretty solid.. I get a constant 10 hours of battery ( 2 hours screen on time tho) but other than that its stable.. Just need a working kernel with the good ol tweaks and ill run this forever.. Well atleast until i get my note or sg3
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jeffreycat:
Just to confirm, Shabbypenguins latest nightly's have nothing new/changed in them?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] flaco_negro:
I flashed CM9 couple days ago and problems I been having are wifi not always connecting, no mms, application WHATS APP not working which is important BC I use it a lot since it's more reliable than sprint inside my house, music volume sets low when text comes in..Any fixes to these problems
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BR1060:
Duh... I figured it out once I realized I changed complete CM versions (9 to 10). Once I flashed GAPPS all was resolved!

Thanks for the welcome - I've been a member for quite some time, but never had a question that wasn't already asked (so I never posted). Any FUP questions I'll move over to the correct thread.

THX once again!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] calisro:
they will pick up changes from the cyanogenmod repo I believe only.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
Which version did you install?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hakcenter:
They have daily upstream fixes and whatever he gets from Chris.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidbrooke:
I'm having trouble loading cm9. I loaded el29 (http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1433101) then added cwm (http://xdaforums.com/show....php?t=1342728). I then tried to install the cm9.zip and got this error:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidbrooke:
I tried the other downloads and got the same result. Any ideas?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
Did you wipe /system or use a wipe-all zip before flashing? If so, don't.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deakelem:
Same issue... :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
The recent nightlies do not work. Do not install them. For the matter, I wouldn't expect any new nightlies to work unless Chris releases a new CM9 test build, which is unlikely since it appears his efforts have shifted to CM10.

Bottom line: if you have a CM9 build installed that works for you, keep it. Don't flash anything newer unless you have seen someone else specifically comment that that particular build works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidbrooke:
I did a cache, dalviche cache and factory data reset....nothing more. I followed the instructions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
The only things I've heard trigger the status 7 error are: bad download, using an incompatible recovery, or using a wipe-all zip.

Retrace your steps, or possibly try using the directboot el29 cwm via mobile odin. It should be listed in the tools section of the blog.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hakcenter:
If you still have a build.prop in /system delete it then retry to flash.

Our use the flash all zip
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CoolGui:
Does anyone know the exact last nightly that booted, and where to get it? I was using 10/20 nightly with no complaints really until Friday (11/2) when I tried to flash the latest and came and read this. I tried CM10 and AOKP JB this weekend, but neither are quite polished enough for me to use daily.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
Nandroid back to your 10/20, because that's very close to when the last functioning nightly was posted.

I don't know why Shabby is still compiling and uploading nightlies known to not work...it's not really doing anyone any good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jeffreycat:
10/25 was the last nightly that worked for me. The latest nightly (11/04) didn't work either.... not sure why all of the October builds are gone :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EeZeEpEe:
Ditto here for 10/25. I ended up going with the latest chris41g CM10 cause CM9 crashed bad and got stuck on the boot animation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CoolGui:
Thanks... I did restore back to my 10/20 build, I guess I was just hoping to get the newest working one. If anyone knows a place I can download 10/25 it would be much appreciated. Then I'll just wait on CM10 for a while.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ctanferno22:
anyone know if were gonna get a finished build for this? i know the nightlys have been solid for the most part id just love to see an official release
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jeffreycat:
ShabbyPenguin's 10/25 nightly was the last one that worked (as of 11/05). All of the developers effort has shifted to making CM10 official/stable, so I highly doubt CM9 will see anymore major milestones completed.

CM10 Beta 1 (Jelly Bean 4.1.2) Released!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hakcenter:
You mean than beta that clicks and pops during calls ?

What thread was this again ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RainMotorsports:
Hold up... this thing makes phone calls? All this time I didn't know why my boss was telling me to put my phone away I was like this isn't a phone shut your mouth lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mavenmaven:
Hehehehe
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigblue4life:
I may have to come back to this rom for a bit. Which version is the most stable to grab?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hotspace:
The beta is rock solid!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mavenmaven:
yeah Beta 1 has been my DD for quite a while. Doesn't disappoint. I won't be moving on til they get a grip on cm10 force closes, clicking sounds, and assortment of other odd issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thedarksavant:
I'm on 10/20 and it's working fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
Has the Facebook app recently stopped working for anyone else? Mine quit working out of the blue and I'm wondering if it's a ROM thing or a $h!tty app thing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hakcenter:
Can't help hate social media :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
The beta of cm10 was built off sources that were changed and untested, my builds have been relatively flawless other than the compass, and audio bug..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Im on the clean rom right now but i think i might come back to cm9 for a while.. Jb is still unstable and other than the audio bug and charging led while off, cm9 beta is a go imo
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hakcenter:
Obviously the work you do is pretty great. Not trying to talk down to you and the issues with 10, just getting tired of people talking about it in the wrong thread.

While you are here maybe I'll pm you about it, but do you have the scripts for the last build up on WampWamp ?

I'm thinking about hunting down the remaining issues after I'm done with my app.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
Scripts? I use the same script for every build.. Cm9 and cm10. Only difference is what I change in the source
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pdoroba:
Just curious, do you think the compass bug will be resolved? I've researched it and it seems common across all AOSP builds. Seems TW is the only ROM with a working compass. It's not a deal killer, just an annoyance really. My job takes me to a new city almost every night i'm gone. I've started walking the wrong way out of the hotel more than a few times. ;) I'm sure you all will quash the audio bug. I appreciate your work. Love cm9. I'll be on 10 soon. Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
its fixed on my latest cm10 build, now just working on the audio out bug
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pdoroba:
Awesome! Gonna download and give it a go in a bit. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] moparfreak426:
So I checked this thread just to see why anyone was using cm when cm10 is beta now and everyone is talking about cm10.... figures lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thedarksavant:
I am still on CM9. I follow both threads. Sadly the nightlies seem broken now, so it's just waiting for CM10 to get a little more stable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] pdoroba:
Chris,

Well I'm up and running your latest nightly and I must say excellent work a always! Compass is dead on,GPS lock is fast, the whole ROM is smooth. I'm working around the headset bug with speakerboost from the market. Battery still needs to settle but so far seems as good of not better than cm9. Thanks again!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackhorses777:
I keep coming back to cm9 beta 1. Only thing wrong with this build is I have to forget networks I've connected too in the past, cycle wifi then reconnect. Everything else in this build is perfect and it's the best out of the last cm9 builds.

I'm still waiting on the audio bug to be fixed in cm10, that's my whole reason for coming back to cm9. Everything else was pretty solid, but the beta of cm10 had a lot of issues when I tested it. Phone speaker only worked when screen on, gallery fc, and the dreaded audio bug.

Also, does anyone know how we can help squash the audio bug with Chris's debug builds of cm10? Not sure how running these builds will help him, but I would like to help in anyway I can.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mavenmaven:
cm10 has a new beta, beta2 thats pretty sweet. Chris 41g and those guys are no joke.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackhorses777:
I'm aware, it's near perfect just the audio out bug :(

I agree with you we have some of the best devs here and we need to appreciate everything they do for us. Especially Chris, he does some amazing work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] calisro:
my audio is fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackhorses777:
Was there a change in headset volume for you in beta 2?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mavenmaven:
mine is cool but right the vokume doesn't reach a fever pitch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t0mmyr:
how can i help? is there a more specific logcat command that focuses on the audio subsystem that would help us figure it out?

the audio bug is the only thing that keeps me from running jelly bean 24/7.

i still keep a clean setup nandroid of cm9 beta 1 for my musical needs.

any chance we could get a cm9 beta 2 with the fixed hard coded serial/mac address bug? it's fixed good in cm10 betas and i have my old mac back! (when not in music/stability mode lol)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] t0mmyr:
just wanted to post my logcat cm10/cm9 post here for reference in case it was missed by devs, that thread seems to be cluttered with n00bness

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=33910403&postcount=556

related to audio skipping bug, possibly headphone volume information too (can compare cm9 logcat to cm10 logcat of same issue)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jeffreycat:
I flashed Chris cm9 updatetest build and then flashed shabbys latest (both compiled 11/10). Neither of them would boot for me; I checked md5 hash as well before flashing and they matched. Just a heads up to anyone else that is considering flashing either of these builds. The last nightly that worked for me was shabbys 10/25 build.

From what I've heard the only major bug remaining in cm10 beta 2 and on is the audio out bug. I will probably flash either the latest beta or nightly tomorrow or next weekend.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
I love Cm9.. Besides the audio bug, notification light and kernel( as far as battery goes) i love it... Wish there was a final.. But i keep beta 1 (which is most stable to me) on my sd card for when i get cm withdrawls lol.. Life of a flash-a-holic i guess.. Thanks again for the hard work...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mavenmaven:
i'm new to flashing but i just can't imagine going back to stock i mean for what? bloatware causing terrible performance? or am i reading you wrong - is it that you flash to other ROMs? or is it that you flash back to stock?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Surj138:
I'm guessing he meant TW stock-based ROMs... I'm the same way, and am currently running Lightweight 0.3.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Well i flash gb roms (caulks 3.0) and i am currently running lightweights new

version.. I like Cm9/10 because of the added bells and whistles (themes , tablet mode etc) .. But ics /gb is just more stable at themoment and i get great battery life on these...

You are correct... Theres so many good roms out.. Important on lightweight and its running smooth.. I switched to agats kernel because i don't know how to use the extweaks and rue told me that setcpu does nothing to his newest kernel as far as settings sticking .. Can't complain .. These devs do great work... Ill probably settle on cm10 when its fully functional until i get my note 2.. Going to skip the s3
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuks97:
which nightly should i install?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
None of them. Flash beta 1.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackhorses777:
I just noticed there's a new cm9 build up. I might have to flash and test it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deakelem:
Good luck.. it probably wont even boot.. if it does please let me know!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hakcenter:
Hopefully Chris will baws it up.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackhorses777:
I haven't had a chance to flash, buts its not a nightly, I'm aware they've been broken for the past 2 weeks. Chris has a new build, I'll flash and test once I get off work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] customz123:
The new build from chris UpdateTest does not boot up for me just to let you guys know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bazirker:
+1
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] duce415:
Ok so the new nightlie doesn't boot.. Think beta 1 is the right way to go for now until either this or cm10 goes official .. Vroom vroom was a good build also..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
Hmmm CM10 is progressing super fast compared to CM9. :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thedarksavant:
Yeah, it's a bummer. I was hoping CM9 would be official for our phone, but the devs do this on their own time and pick the work that's the most fun and challenging. I'd probably do the same thing, especially if CM10 is going so well, it would probably have a release before CM9 anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] joshlete:
Can this rom be overclocked? I recently installed CM10 4.1.2 but overclocking is not working on that. Also, what is the difference between 4.0.4 and 4.1.2? What are the advantages of jellybean to icecream other than Google Now?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] calisro:
no. it can't. the replies in the cm10 were accurate. there aren't many overclocking kernels for the e4gt.

---------- Post added at 07:23 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:21 PM ----------

You're such a comedian.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] calisro:
dude, you've been told the same thing in 2 or more threads. To overclock you'll be going back to gingerbread and a OLD kernel. or you'll have to wait till there is anew kernel or you'll have to modify one yourself. I wasn't being a comedian. I'm serious that if you searched for more than 5 minutes you'd come to that realization.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Darkendes:
Ah, wait a sec. Where exactly are you looking for the files? TouchWiz uses the external_sd folder INSIDE /sdcard. AOSP does not.

Look for your files inside /external_sd, which is different from /sdcard/external_sd.

You have to go up to the root folder. In other words, back out of /sdcard completely, then look for a separate folder called /external_sd.

Your files should be in there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] glmooreky:
Overall this is a great ROM, have been on CM9 since its introduction. This ROM is running great but I finally encountered a problem on my wife's phone. It seems that some of the apps she had previously had, are now saying they're "not compatible with this device". Stating that the license code could not be calculated. I thought maybe she had messed with a setting somewhere, so I downloaded one of the apps onto my device. Sure enough, when I go to sign into the app, I get the same message. Funny thing is, we were running all the alphas and never encountered a problem of this nature with any app.

Does this have anything to do with the storage assignments. Like maybe the app is looking in the wrong place for the license. Any help is greatly appreciated.

S/N: I also noticed while trying to upload a pic to this post by bluetoothing it to my PC then uploading, that bluetooth is no longer working also.

EDIT: Just tried swapping the storage to see if that would solve the problem with the apps not locating the license, but to no avail. Guess we will be rolling back to previous release for the time being. Keep up the good work tho.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] todivefor:
If this is your initial experience with the new CM USB storage structure (after A6), you just have ti bite the bullet and get it working. Once over the hurdle, it works fine.

For those finding external_sd empty check this:

sdcard = emmc

external_sd = sdcard

I have /sdcard/external_sd which is empty.

Besure you are looking at the correct /external_sd.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] liquefiedvapor:
I tried this last night as written and it went well. I'm up and running. Couple of questions.

First, this is my first first attempt doing this and when I boot up the phone, where it says Galaxy II it has a yellow triangle under it. Doesn't seem to affect anything. Just wanted to make sure this was normal.

Secondly, I can't seem to get my GPS to work. It worked fine on stock but now it won't get a signal lock. Anything I can do? I saw someone mention that they had a lock on touchwiz before they flashed to get it to work but I don't understand that. Like should I of had GPS on and with a lock before I flashed?

Thirdly, I can't seem to disable alerts from Google Talk. I can turn notification sounds off but that does texts as well, and on stock I was able to just silence GT and not texts. Something I'm missing or just the way it is?

All said I'm liking CM9. Thanks in advance for everyone's help!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GiantJay:
1. There is a file to get rid of the triangle if you want to get rid of it, I think its on the blog spot for this ROM or look up qbking77 on YouTube I've seen in it a video of his too. 2. You need to get a GPS lock on before flashing this ROM there is a lot of info about it do a search or again qbking77. 3. Get on a computer and go to the settings for Google voice and change what you want on or off.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] liquefiedvapor:
The yellow triangle isn't a big deal. Just noticed it and figured to mention it in case something was wrong.

As for the GPS, since I can't currently get a lock what's the best way to go about redoing this? Flash back to stock, lock GPS, then follow the CM9 directions again?

Figured out the GT thing. Was looking for a sound off switch, when really it was a silent ring tone. Silly I know.

Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rocket321:
Hope this isn't a repeat - but if your compass is backwards try doing a calibration with the phone laying screen down - this worked on the OG Epic when the same problem cropped up.

Edit: tried this several times, doesn't seem to work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] liquefiedvapor:
I attemped to do the Temporary Stock FF18 from emmc to fix my GPS issue. I followed the directions listed here: ]htt p://e4gtcm.blogspot.co m/2012/08/temporary-stock-ff18-from-emmc.h tml but ended up receiving the "install from sd card complete" message that I wasn't suppose to. I have no external card installed, and the file was placed on my root directory of my internal memory. I saw this posted a few pages back:

previously, CM mounted

internal card to /emmc

external card to /sdcard

new default as per upstream CM:

internal @ /sdcard

external @ /external_sd

I assume this is why it isn't working?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] YellaHayes:
My wifi keeps going on and off while the screen is on. Anyone else having this issue? Know how to fix it?

And can I flash modems with this recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidstjohn1:
I had this problem for short while at the beginning it happened once and never happen again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dudebowski:
^^^This guy! Quote for repetition and great justice! Thank you, I was wondering why mine was working and other people were reporting this. Thank you.

WiFi LoS issues seem to be fixed by a reboot. Make sure it's not just a simple connectivity issue. Forget the wifi profile, reboot, reconnect, etc...

Modems are safe to flash in this recovery. FH13 seems to work the best for me.

stock FF18 kexec tempboot should work with this kernel/recovery. All that needs to be done is download the file, extract contents, you should be left with a folder called /multiboot with a bootFF18.zip inside. Reboot phone to recovery, mount usb to desktop, place the /multiboot directory and all contents to the root of your /sdcard. eject phone from desktop, unmount usb, reboot into recovery again, in 'advanced' and then install zip '/sdcard/multiboot/boot_ff18.zip' and the phone should autoboot, you'll see the Sprint boot ani.

Triangle on Samsung Boot splash is Samsung's attempt at protecting their warranty dept. from people like us who flash custom kernels :angel: numerous ways to remove it, TriangleAway app works.

The 'fix' for Google Talk is widely suggested to open the app, click on your account from the menu, and softkeymenu>signout. If you don't use google's jabber client, best to turn it off to reduce data/battery consumption
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] selfguided:
Followed instructions to the letter, still get "install from sdcard complete".

Recovery screen:

Boot /sdcard/multiboot/FF18/zImage

Create mount and sh symlink.

Remount partitions read-only.

(Re)mount /external_sd read-only.

(Re)mount /sdcard read-only.

Unpack kexec.

Load zImage and initramfs.

Sync.

Reboot onto zImage.

Install from sdcard complete.
