If you use EL26, it's fine. From the EL26 CWM, Flash the rom, modem (so far, fi25 modem working great), bloatware, other Kobridge tweak mode (if you want a different tweak mode), and stock kernel (maybe FI25 and I use this Kernel most of time) then reboot.

This works like a charm.

One time I had a GPS tweak but it's not on this ROM. So, between crawrj's rom and mine in here, it should be same if we are only talking about the GPS.

Sometimes, once after we change the ROM, we could experience the GPS lock issue. Whenever I have a locking issue, I use one track.

From the settings > Location services, turn on all options then start the GPS application. It will make GPS lock reasonably quick.

Regarding the losing GPS connection, I'm not sure what to say. I've experienced that in early ICS ROM, but I don't know at this time. I'm almost not using GPS these days. You may need to surf around to find the same issue reported by some other person.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GeneralSky2004:
Booted. Flashed Agat's repack in Odin and then your silent camera. Got everything set up and it's doing very well so far. Very smooth. It's nice to see a simplistic ROM. I think some people let the "Stock" tag push them away, but stock can be very relieving. Coming from some ROM's that add so much to it that it becomes sluggish, this feels incredible.

Thanks for the time you put in on this.

i keep getting a "Sprint ID has stopped" error. any idea on what i should do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Sprint id can be removed. So you may remove it(uninstall). If you want to keep it, uninstall and move sprintid apk to /system/app folder and reboot. For me, I did lots of flashing without wiping dara and never saw sprintid issue. Hope your sprintid issue resolved.

Search Function

Does anyone know how to get the "in phone search" back? It seems that the search (right most soft key) function does not search the phone anymore, it just gets results from the web through google search. The function previously used to work, example, searching for a contact "Jhon Doe" would first bring up "Mr. Doe" from the contact list, e-mail sent from Mr. Doe and then the results from the web. This made it easy to search for files, e-mail or texts stored on the phone... and now, its gone! (#*&! Apple!)

It would be great if this could be brought back... Any help/direction is appreciated.

Thanks,

Yaantra
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Yeah I noticed this as well. There's no option to choose what it searches anymore. I'm thinking it's a change on Google/Samsung's end...which sucks. :(You're right about Apple.

I'm sure it's within the framework so it's doubtful an older apk would resolve this. I'll try it later for giggles and let you know.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lord dredd:
Thanks a lot

i donno but i always find it great to have a stock yet totally optimized rom to enjoy the TWiz in its full ugly glory ;)

Thanks a lot stashing it up my card to flash when i am done with my current.

PS :

can i use

Downlaod Kobridge's Bloatware Apps Remover Tool v1.02

to further debloat the GALXY ROM or i have to use calk's bare ROM converter
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Calk's bare ROM converter is quite bit old and many bloatware apps wouldn't be removed with that. So, you can use my remover tool for most recent version ROMs. If it does not work, just let me know. Thanks!

From this link http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1668853, click Kobridge Tweak v3.6 then you will forwarded d-h.st download page. From there, download v3.6 for FI25 ROM. If you unzip the downloaded zip file, then you will find the v3.6A zip file. Flash this zip file from CWM recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
Thank you bro! :)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
I booted into recovery and it led me to sammy stock recovery. Wierd?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Once you flashed my rom, if you did not flash the repacked Kernel again, you will lose the CWM recovery because my rom has the stock kernel.

What I recommend is, keep the stock kernel but if you need CWM recovery work, then flash the CWM recovery thru mobile odin. Once you finish the recovery work, just flash the stock kernel back at the same session.

Currently I'm using Agat's FF18 and FI25 repacked Kernels. Agat's FF18 repacked Kernel didn't make a change on init.rc portion. So, After applying this Kernel, you can still run all of my tweaks. But if you use recent Kernels from him like FI25, it removed dvfs.sh portion from init.rc, so, CPU tweak wouldn't work if you keep his FI25 kernel. This is one of the reason why I return back to stock kernel after the recovery work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
So? What kernel should i use? Could you link me to d both please kob?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
First, I'd like to say thanks again to rwilco12 for his Kernel repo and Agat for his repacked kernel.

FI25 Stock Kernel zip format - http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com/?dir=Kernels/Stock (TW) Kernels/ICS/ZIP

Agat's Repacked Kernel zip format - http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com/?dir=Kernels/Recovery Kernels/ICS/Agats Recovery/ZIP

Agat's Repacked Kernel tar format (for mobile odin) - http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com/?dir=Kernels/Recovery Kernels/ICS/Agats Recovery/TAR

Mobile odin - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1347899

If you have mobile odin (or you can download it from the link above), you can use on of Agat's tar format recovery kernel.

Reboot into recovery, then do the recovery task something like nandroid backup.

After the recovery task, flash the zip format stock kernel. Reboot and you're done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
All right so i flashed agressive tweaks. One thing i noticed in mu homescreen i keep subway surfers,when i reboot that app disappears. Others all stay intact! Sorry to be so pestering.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Are you using MIUI? Or can you post your screenshots what you are seeing with some more explanation?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
Nope i am on ur FI25 rom,

1.before reboot

2.after reboot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
I thought that you were talking about something that I don't know but it seems like you are talking about one icon (calling subway sufer).

Based on your explanation, it seems like this application is using the cache. Did you try to place the app to home screen again after the reboot?

Is it kept removed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
Yes i didi! It did get removed again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Ok I downloaded the same game and installed it. Created app shortcut on home screen - stock launcher, twlauncher and go launcher.

After the reboot, the shortcut was there in every launchers.

I'm not sure why it happens on your phpne.

There could be couple of reasons.

1. A tweak mode sometimes very slow - you may wait until your phone fully scanned after the reboot

2. Try m tweak mode

3. After reboot, uninstall app, download the app again, install it. Create shortcut at home screen and reboot

4. If the problem persist, there would be some issue on your phone system.

Hope this help

Hi, quick question. Can I flast the battery mods in stock recovery or will I have to flast AGAT's kernel to do all that fun stuff? Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The battery mods will not work with this rom unless you flash one of the status bar mods from the first page of my addons first because the systemui file in stock rom is not designed to handle that particular change.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ankurcshah:
Can we use other mods of td? On this rom

---------- Post added at 11:37 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:37 PM ----------

Also wifi keeps disconnecting a lot! I have set it to never sleep.. Keeps stopping at authenticating a lot of times. Sometimes an hour or so?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The wifi thing is a known bug (sadly). Switch it back to always and you should be fine.

Most of the mods should work with stock.

I think there are exceptions:

Lockscreen Mod (framework file probably not compatible)

Please backup your rom prior to flashing any mods and let us know if you find any others that don't work. (see previous post about battery mods)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Which rom are you running? This was a problem with the sprint connection optimizer but it was removed in the latest fi25 build.

On FI03, settings/more/mobile networks, turn off the optimizer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
It is actually now integrated in the system. I found it in system/apps using root explorer. If you got to settings, applications, then running tab, you will see that it is running. To remove it I just went to that app folder in root explorer and moved it (incase I want it later) to my sd card.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Yes, I see that it is. It is not in the release of FI25 I downloaded. Maybe it was an oversight.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
Ya, it's weird that sprint would remove it from settings. Its like they knew people were disabling it, so they hid for noone to know it's even there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I think that was human error leaving it in by accident when the rom was built, not Sprint. I'm sure KO will post a removal tool or something if it's not really meant to be there. ;)

Edit: Because we all know, there are NO humans working at Sprint. :eek:

Noob question

A noob question.

Is it possible to install FI25 on top of the old one (FI03)?

I used to do it under BlazerROM with apps and data intact, which I like. Saves me the hassle of re-installing my favorite apps.

Either way, I can always use Titanium Backup.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Of course. That's the way I do whenever I upgrade the ROM. To keep the old apps, you should not perform the factory reset or Calk's format all tool.

The safest way doing this is, make the nandroid backup first and do the task whatever you want to do.

Kobridge's Stock Rom Addons 2.1 - some more notification icon changes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Push or install these?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
Push, then set permissions and reboot. Enjoy. Its awesome! Thanks Kobridge.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Sorry for the lack of information.

It's on the post#3.

Instrunction -

1. Replace /system/app/SystemUI.apk with downloaded apk file

2. Reboot

3. You will see the changed battery stat, Radio signal and wifi signal bars, etc.

Note: There's nothing else changed on SystemUI.apk. If you want to go back to stock default, just simply replace the SystemUI.apk file with stock one.

Note2: When you replace the current SystemUI.apk, your phone may act a little strange and SystemUI.apk maybe force closed. In that case, just press the power button until your phone starts to reboot. After the reboot, everything should be fine.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Thanks again Kobridge.

I've been trying a different builds on an off for the last week or so.

And I must say that this has been the most stable and usable build of FI25 out there. No LOSs, very smooth and responsive with good battery and good connection speeds with out any FCs (yet).

Thank you for the work!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
I did this and my phone wouldn't get past boot screen. Will try downloading again. If it fails again I guess I'm going to have to wipe.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] joshuadub:
I just did it with root explorer copy and paste then reboot and voila

Edit my bad sorry I thought you where trying to replace system ui pay me no mind
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] the_jon57:
So, just to be clear: will the Extended Toggles mods for Re-Calked 0.2.1 work with Kobridge 2.1? Will this be the case in the future/have you got something worked out with TD? I'd love to see a Kobridge-specific version since I assume the Re-Calked notification branding would be intact.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Someone else will have to answer if it works or not. However, I can release a patch for the carrier in the dropdown. But what should it say? Kobridge ICS? The extended toggle does have a mini reboot menu built in btw, but its too much work to alter that tagline right now. I'll have to think about that one. See screenshots.

Edit: I guess the reboot and power menu change is possible I was thinking of something else. However, I still need input if the extended toggles work and what to change the 'Re-Calked ICS' to.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
I think you are talking about the ROM and it's not about the SystemUI. If system stops during the copying the SystemUI, then we need to replace the file throught the CWM recovery (I'm going to create it).

If your phone does not start after flashing the FI25 ROM, there could be multiple reasons. For the past couple of hours, I spent my time to resolve my wife's phone issue after the upgrade from FI03 to FI25. For my phone, I had no problem but my wife's phone had some issue.

I flashed everything - ROM, Bloatware remover, Addon1 and 2.1, modem. Only the difference between my phone and wife's phone was, I flashed Hotspot hack odexed version to my wife's phone. I'm not sure but the phone started showing boot screen frequently and application stopped working frequently.

So, I started all over again from nandriod backup but I did not flashed hotspot hack at this time. Now everything looks fine.

I still don't know why it happened to my wife's phone but I was able to keep all data from my wife's phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Oooh. I had the same thing on one of my flashes to this build - flashed everything in one single session including hotspot hack. And it locked up too.

Next time flashed everthing - flashing Agat's FI25 recovery kernel last, and it booted.

I Then flashed Odexed hotspot hack and it works and all was fine. I think the issue is because it messes with the framework and if the system hasn't been set after a first boot it doesn't know what to do.

I also chose to flash Google Now inverted from cajunflavoredbob's thread (in my first session) and it's worked great.

I've got three family members whom I'm going to be updating to this build this weekend and I'll use that same proces and report any issues.

Thanks again for the great work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gatesmarch123:
Yeah I don't know what's going on. I downloaded the file again... This time wiping everything and I get to the boot screen and everything goes black, like it just shuts down. . I guess I'll just stay with FI03. Way too frustrated right now. :banghead:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
If you still want to flash the FI25, can you show me the exact steps that you did and which kernel do you use for CWM recovery task?

TD Addons

Wiped phone with Calkulin's format all, flashed Kobridge 2.1 in the same recovery session and let it go through it's initial bootup. All is well.

Installed mobile odin, flashed a custom recovery, booted into recovery and installed one of my status bar mods, then the Kobridge toggles patch, one of the battery and signalbar mods...

(You must flash one of the 4 status bar mods first if you plan on using any of the battery mods posted in my thread).

Note: I went ahead and posted the Kobridge toggles patch in my thread which is available on the OP. Screenshots attached.

BTW, in the first screenshot, I corrected KoBridge to Kobridge in final posted patch.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Always thanks for your extra efforts TD! Really appreciated!

[Update] I just tried extended toggles provided by TD and it worked great.

If you are already in Kobridge's Tweaked Stock ROM, just go to the recovery as TD mentioned and flash one of TD's extended toggle 2.1 zip file. After that, flash Kobridge 2.1 patch - it's on the same download page from TD's thread. After everything's done, flash the original Kernel back and reboot. You will see the same screenshots TD posted or like below (for me).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lord dredd:
Very nice, great gesture TD :)

Thankies

btw KB : i know it sounds pretty noobish ;) but how to get the recovery back ]

regards
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
There could be several ways depending on your situation.

The easiest way to get the recovery back and working most cases would be going thru odin. Download the .tar format recovery kernel and flash it thru odin (DL mode by pressing vol down + power). During the reboot, hold vol up + power button. You will get the recovery back.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
I just flashed agats latest kernel through mobile odin and man... this is the snappiest (not a word) ics Rom I've ever used. I love it. I'm gonna go ahead and flash the extended toggles and the reboot mod next. TD has become a beast with these on almost every Rom available. You guys rock. This will be my new daily until jb is more stable or we get merged with the cm stream. Outstanding job guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
Just want to repeat my comment on Agat's latest Kernel. It does not support one of my Tweak functioning correctly. To keep it working, you may need TD's one script that is calling dvfs.sh or you just go back to stock kernel or use Agat's old recovery kernel like ff18. Thanks for your encourging words. Appreciated!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
Ok. I'll get back on stock then. I did read what you wrote earlier about the tweaks. Thanks for the reminder bro. I'm hanging on to this Rom for a while. Weird thing happened though when I first flashed it. I went to stock el 29 repack direct boot like I always do when flashing ics. Ran calks format all once. Ran venums x2 wipe. Then I manually wiped. Flashed the Rom, followed by the debloater, then the tweaks. Booted the phone and no gps. Couldn't get a lock for the life of me. Used gps test and gps status from the market and still got nothing. When I flashed agats latest I got an instant lock. I'm golden now, just wanted to share my experience.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
I also mentioned about GPS lock somewhere about the workaround whenever you experience GPS locking problem. When it's blinking and does not lock the GPS, go to the settings and location settings. Turn on all the options then try again. We will get the GPS lock reasonably quick. After the first GPS lock, you can turn off the other options except the main GPS. After the GPS locked first time, you will get the fast GPS lock thereafter.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] exconvictriddick:
another quick question

Is there a recovery via ODIN? I want to preserve the stock kernel.

What's the best kernel for this rom? any input is much appreciated.

---------- Post added at 08:04 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:59 PM ----------

I found GPS status in the Google Play works best if i'm having gps lock problem. I did it once when I install FI25 over FF13. It locks 1-2 second after that... no problem here.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NavalFluff:
Am I safe to flash a different recovery? The one included confuses me a bit as I've never seen one like it before.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
This ROM comes with the stock kernel. There is NO CWM/Recovery with it.

IF you want a kernel with CWM you'll have to flash that via Mobile Odin, PC Odin or a One-Click.

Mobile Odin is the easiest by far to use. Download the kernel .tar and use Mobile Odin to flash it.

Search for the Kernel (FI25 Agat Repack) in rwilco12's repositories.

There is also an 'XDA' version of Mobile Odin available - search for that. BUT I'd recommend supporting the developer and just buying it via the Play Store.

Good luck.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
It seems like FI27 is a bug fix version from FI25. In FI25, some of you already know that Connection Manager apk was still in /system/app folder while connection optimizer option was removed from the settings.

Now I see that Connection Manager app is removed from /system/app folder on FI27.

If this is true, there's no reason that we need to move up to FI27 ROM (you can simply uninstall the connection manager apk or you can use my bloatware remover tool).

For me, I'll sit back and wait until I have a confirmation that there's any significant changes made on FI27. Otherwise, I'll stick with current FI25 ROM.

Is it normal for the moderate tweak to touch 1200mhz sometimes?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kobridge:
No, moderate tweak never touch the 1200mhz after the boot. Only the time it spikes up is during the boot before the cpu tweak runs.

If it goes up to 1200mhz after the boot, then it means that CPU tweak is not working and it happens when you use custom kernel except the stock.

For example, if you use Agat's kernel, it prevents running dvfs.sh script during the boot and this means that CPU tweak is not invoked during the boot. There is a workaround for that. If you use Agat's kernel, then you need to add one more init.d script into /system/etc/init.d folder.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
I am actually using the stock fi25 kernel on a fi03 rom. I might just use your rom if I cant fix this.
