There was no answer anywhere for my issue with the voicemail icon not showing when I had a message.

Been using a 3rd party app which worked fine but I prefer not to use it.

I found that taking the visual voicemail app off the phone (froze in titanium) solved the issue and my regular voicemail icon showed up after a reboot.

Uninstalled 3rd party notif app and all is good :) hope this helps someone else cz all the info out there had me running in circles...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
This one is strange because it slides across the bottom of the screen and I could be in any app, even when on one of my home screens. I have never had an ad slide across the bottom of my screen when I am using different apps, that is why I am asking about it. I am not even sure of which app is causing this, I was hoping someone would happen to know what app has ads like this.

I know many free apps have ads and if they are free I don't mind but they are normally only seen when using that app. I also have a lot of paid apps as I don't mind paying a dev for an awesome app.

Thank you

Can this app be used on any phone or tablet or was it just for the E4GT?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RazzTick:
It can be used on any Android device.

Thank you for that fix. I'll put it in the known issues and link it back to your post. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wm388:
Oh, thanks for clarifying. Yeah, I agree with trojanv, that's a really weird thing I've never heard of. I'd look at any suspicious free apps or games and check out that software trojanv suggested.

Side note: I've been running this ROM for little over a week now, but I rarely use my phone all the way down to 0. I did yesterday; got 16, almost 17 hours of use with 2 hours screen time. Way better than anything I've run in a long time!

Is there a setting to adjust the font size of the time and date on slide down notification bar? As you can see in the attached pic the setting button on far right is almost gone. I looked in 3minit settings but didn't see anything.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btoddweber:
Check the font size in your settings under display. Also if you uncheck "show am/pm" in 3minit it should let it slide back
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] freesunshine:
Changing font size in the main settings doesn't change anything. As to un-checking "show am/pm" in 3minit (I thought I tried that setting), it does help a little but I kinda like having "am/pm" but I suppose it's a work around. Thanks for the recommendation. :good:

Anyone having issues updating PRL and profile? Fixes? I'm not familiar with this rom, and was asked for help. Posting on their behalf. Thanks guys.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
I have flashed every TW Rom put on here, especially so with jb. And even with having Boost, and flashing Sprint roms, I have always been able to update prl/profile. But of course I rarely, if ever, change modems. For my phone, and this area, GC01=GB27=GB27, as far as modems are concerned. Have them try flashing a different jb modem, rebooting, then try updating prl, then profile. See if that helps :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Raistlin1:
This looks awesome but doesn't this ROM already have some of these? I did not do a comparison of what 2.2 has vs what is in that huge app zip. How can we pick stuff out of there that we would like and make sure it is the compatible version for our phone? Or can I just flash this and let it over write the existing versions? I know you said it is better to remove an app if you have it already before flashing, but for this ROM that could be a lot a of apps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I just put that out there in case there were any conflicts but I have many of those installed already and haven't had any issues. The great thing about the apps package is that is doesn't overwrite anything already installed. The biggest advantage is that many of these apps are too large to install on most of the custom roms since they are so tight on space to begin with. Plus I thought it would be fun to have the choice of multiple keyboards, launchers and apps all in one package. Of course, you may want to make a backup before installing anyway just in case but I've been using this since I released it with zero issues. The only thing I had to do was uninstall Rom Toolbox Lite since I have the Pro version that I paid for and no sense in having both apps installed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] btoddweber:
So if I'm on whatever ROM...it doesn't take up space in the same place?

The ROM was like 500 mb and so is this???

Sorry for being uneducated about this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
It's nearly 600 mb's in size and doesn't take up ANY of the regular system space that the rom uses. The entire package gets stored in the data partition which has well over a gigabyte of free space. I just decided to use some of it. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Goddly:
update prl? cant find it, *shakes head* damn im tired
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
Btoddweber: I have 190+ apps installed, 30 in data apps, and I've got 1.2 GB of free space on my phone's internal memory, which is where all of these apps go. Ignoring for overlap, and dumping what I wouldn't use, I'd have plenty of space left. Think of it as installing a ton of apps from the play store all at once after you've done a fresh install of a rom. It's a dang nice gift, and TD has automated the process.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
If...

If you have WiFi on or 4G antenna, both shut down whilst the phone does its thing with the Sprint network. if you have a few bars up, it could take a minute or two, max. Never had it take longer than that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Goddly:
thanx, that was weird. updating profile now.... hoping this helps with 3g, its just horrible...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
It Will...

Profile will reboot your phone automatically, but it is worth it. You should be on PRL 21097 after reboot. That hit the S2 in June of this year.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Goddly:
prl is 21097, profile didnt reboot. rebooting manually
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] remotehugger:
I waa gonna ask what prl you all had - im on Virgin Mobile which I think is sprint and my prl is 61010 -

from my VM SGII, jdsingle76 rom w/ agats 1.4.2f kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
That is odd...

Odd profile didn't automatically reboot your phone when completed updating. There is a pregnant pause between updating and finalizing the profile update. If you get a little itchy with the phone's responsiveness during that intervening period, it may not have completed updating the profile. Probably won't make much of a difference, but you might want to do it again, inasmuch as it can do no harm, IMHO.

So, how's your network speed? See any improvement on 3G?

With Boost mine was 61009 for the longest time, but recently I updated and its 31104. And from reading, that's the same for some other folks in other areas(New prls, not necessarily that one), so Sprint(and their prepaid partners) may be updating some towers in some areas.

Don't know how you do it but I believe Titanium Backup can create a batch restore file (pro version only) that will restore everything in one shot.

---------- Post added at 10:12 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:10 AM ----------

I don't believe I've seen my phone automatically reboot after a profile/prl update since ICS. And Goddly's issues might be a problem with the network. You know how flakey our service is to begin with. :eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
It will state "Phone will reboot" after a Profile Update, then you hit "OK" and it reboots.

I believe this is only a sprint thing though. When I used a boost ROM I never saw it. I could be wrong, but just my experience *shrugs*

Hey Everyone, just wanted to say this is an awesome ROM. Great job to everyone involved and those that have "Add-ons" and the help everyone is providing. I have not been here in quite a while until a few weeks ago when my KO's ROM started acting up. I first tried the Blu Kuban, but this one , IMO, is first class!!

Thank's guys for keeping the E4GT alive:cool:

PS Everyone should be commended for the nice help for the new guys as well. One reason I quite showing up before is all the b!tching and yelling at the newer guys for not reading or searching on every issue they had. Our threads were much better than the other's on XDA, but it just got old after a while.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] micmars:
TD: I may have misstated the scale of things--maybe. The 190 is total apps (the number on reboot after having wiped cache partition, dalvik and flashed one of your awesome mods;) The thirty is the number that the play store recognizes.

TiBu batch restore comes in handy, but it won't handle the Nova setup, which has its own restore feature. It gets even crazier when I feel compelled to install the latest inverted app.

Anyone else having Voice to text issues?

my original post is here

basically,

i have version 2.1 - was looking for an update...

But, when i open up text messenger, click the MIC icon, it animates and writes what i say...then i guess when it thinks im done, it stops and freezes, with a double ghost image on top of the screen....sometimes i can press a letter or 2 before it forces a reboot....

this is 2.1 normal, no mods or anything, especially with messenger...

i can text normal and receive any and all texts/mms.

i have 3 keyboards, Samsung,swype and hackers keyboard...each one has the same issue, so it must be the Voice to Text.....

But, im unsure as to what the actual app/program is that controls that, so i can maybe restore it from a backup using TB,

i wondering if it might fix the issue in 2.2 or that something else can be done to fix it...

a friend of mine has same rom, same version, he says he to has had the same issue...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
I made sure to add all the libs for TTS. Its SamsungTTS.apk in preload that controls that, along with S-Voice.

Have you tried clearing app cache and data from S-Voice?

Also, have you checked settings for Speech to text?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberdyneSystems:
wow...thanks...just cleared the cache from SVOICE, but there was no samsungTTS.apk..that i saw, and i chose ALL maybe i missed it...

i cleared cache from google voice..and some other voice thing as well...

just tested, seems to be working, thanks

..and yes i "read this stuff" thats how i search for my own stuff from the past to solve or pass on to post of the future...

1) It's a trial and error process, don't get discouraged. It takes a lot of patience.

3) And most of all, have fun with it! When the enjoyment is gone, the motivation dies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Also it's good to pick a smaller aspect (like the lockscreen:thumbup: ) and focus on that until you understand it and it's inner workings and then move on to other aspects of the Android OS. It's huge and easy to get lost, there are a lot of things I still don't understand. And it's constantly growing. And different variations. It's huge, start small and you won't get overwhelmed. It's like learning a foreign language. You have to understand the basics before you can start conjugating verbs. Good luck!

Re: [ROM] [Team ScarLick] [GA10 TW] Touched By SGSIII Version 4.0 updated 1/25

How long have you had the ROM? Usually have to give it about a week to let it settle. How long did it last before and how long does it last now? Check your battery use to see what is using it the most?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carole6m:
I love this ROM so far! GPS locks very fast and all the added features are awesome. One thing that's weird is that a few days ago the battery lasted almost 2 days with very light use but the past 2 days it only lasted about a day with the same use. Not sure what's causing it..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Sure thing, glad to help.

Things that affect battery the most:

1. Bad battery - they rarely last over 10 months. If yours is older than that, buy a new one they are pretty inexpensive.

2. Low signal

3. Synching apps

- gmail, facebook, push mail, twitter....

4. Bad or improper flashing method or flashing between JB roms without doing a proper X2 wipe. Or did not properly wipe & repartition the phone to begin with to prepare for JB by using one of the JB stock tar files.

5. Don't expect to get the same battery as everyone else, results vary wildly since every phone is different. Folks think they can install 300 apps and everything will be fine. :eek: Reload the ROM from scratch, run it as bare as possible for several days to get a baseline usage then start adding apps gradually to see if something else is causing problems. Or use an app like Titanium backup to freeze ALL extra apps and see if it makes a difference if you're not willing to start over.

Edit: BTW, this is not all entirely directed at you Mrcharmz so excuse me while I rant a little. ;)

Just tired of the battery woes I keep hearing.

Folks, this is a LEAK. It is not final and we have not had it that long. We do not have source to further our efforts to maximize performance vs. battery life and we are doing the best we can with what we have. If your phone lasts all day with decent use, count yourself lucky but that is all you should expect for now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
Re: [ROM] [Team ScarLick] [GA10 TW] Touched By SGSIII Version 4.0 updated 1/25

To piggy back on that.

1. Use and app like battery calibration to wipe battery stats.

2. Give the ROM and kernel at least a few charging cycles to settle in.

3. Make sure the scripts in init.d folder are set with correct permissions and executed.

4. If none of that helps try under clocking to 1000MHz or 1GHz. That will help. You can underclock on a stock kernel.

I can get about 13-14 hours on my battery. Everyone's set up is different. What I get may be more or less depending on usage and set up. Also the age of the battery.

I can only provide battery saving tips and tools. Hope this helps as well.
