Try this ROM out you're going to love it.

Definitely going to stick with this ROM as my daily driver. Speaker Phone works perfectly, Notification LED works perfectly without battery drain issue, MMS works perfectly, Battery Life & Performance is freaking Awesome, & 4G Wimax Speeds are really good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] glenesis:
Hi folks.

I've been on HyperDroid all week, and the battery life with that LZ kernel has gotten better with every charge cycle. Given, I have an extended battery, but even so, I don't think I ever got more than 16 hours out of this phone. The battery is a year old now, and I am going on 25 hours on battery. I've used almost three hours of screen time (with brightness at 50 per cent), and my charge is only down to 39 per cent. This is nothing short of a technological miracle, and I give many thanks!

I dirty-flashed HyperDroid over the 5/3 build of SlimBean. The upgrade seems flawless. I will probably try the 5/14 build of SlimBean 5.3 dirty-flashing over this ROM later today :)

The LZ kernel is incredible! Thank you! Cheers! Happy Friday!

Is it necessary to flash the AIO or can i just go from EL29 and flash rom and SLim_gapps?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
You should be fine doing it that way
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IamFlynn:
Thanks!

Update!!! I just flashed rom and Slim_gapps successfully:good::laugh:

How do I get rid of the Menu 3 dot button on every app? Can't seem to find it in settings
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
system settings, interface, navigation bar, menu location, and select bottom choice
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IamFlynn:
That won't do it for me.. I meant like the 3 button menu button in every single app not the navigation bar..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johncro13:
try this.

What modem is everyone using? Which gives you the fastest GPS lock and best signal?

EL26? El29? FI27? FL24?

Did you do a little something extra to get your E4GT to perform?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
depends on the area you are in...plus if you flash a modem (i use fi27) and you dont get a good signal temp boot a stock rom and update your profile and prl get a gps lock and flash slim again not back up flash g2g
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
FE10 works best for me in my area but it's probably mostly about trial and error. As long as it's a gb or ics modem, no jelly bean modem, those won't work

Not sure I understand, can you take a screenshot?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johncro13:
Hey, KT?

Since the GitHub link ain't playing nice, I found the link above, but after installing, the bottom 3/4 of the screen is blank upon boot. I noticed this only after rotating during initial setup. Do you have another link, or a recommendation?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
What are you talking about
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johncro13:
Has no one ever had this? I did a clean install, and when the phone booted, I could only see the top 3/4 of the screen. The rest was blank. I can see the whole screen in recovery, though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
I would try to download again it sounds like it was a bad DL something is amiss
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattweed9:
Yeah, sounds like you are missing the onscreen hardware keys. Those were set by default I believe when I flashed this rom .

Quick Tip That Makes ROM Even More Awesome For Me.

Hope OP doesn't mind me posting this here.

I'm on the latest build 5/14/2013 and I did a few things to make ROM perform better for me. This ROM is rock solid as is so this completely optional if you want to try to get better performance. Try Exit Only Tweaks 0.5.4_r1 from here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=2158329

It is not a flashable script so download then move it to your sdcard should be in this directory /sdcard then cut or copy the install folder to /sdcard once done use terminal emulator to install with this command: Type su {the next command is sh /sdcard/install/install.sh (press enter)

go through prompts & only install exit only tweaks and nos_entropy & None of the experimental stuff. Phone will reboot after finishing. Once it reboots open terminal and type su (next command line type nos_entropy and turn on Nos_Entropy generator and set to moderate and set Run at boot. Type 4 to exit once done. I also set my governor to Pegasusq Set on boot and I/O scheduler to NOOP set on boot. See attached screenshots to see how battery life (1800maH Anker battery) is doing as well as CPU state. I've had no random reboots or deep sleep issues or any lag since applying the tweaks and GPS locks quickly (FYI may have to turn off location settings then turn them back on to get a lock) :highfive:

Remember again do not apply any of the experimental tweaks like int.d.

Note there is a space between sh(space) /sdcard/install/install.sh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
You see that big drop that doesn't happen to me I don't drop that far in eight hours I'm curious because Thomas looked at the scripts that eo uses and he said that they might cause issues any way let us know

Also I'm aft 53 percent at ten hours
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Some apps don't exactly have the 3 button menu within the app as they're not 100% optimized for any version of Android 4.0+ contact the app developer to have him/her implement it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Master_Ellis:
That dropped happened when I turned 4G Wimax on because Sprint 3G sucks in my area. I might try flashing another modem but for the most part I'm getting excellent battery life and performance. Scored a 9878 on Antutu and standby time is amazing. I also had GPS on for awhile testing out the new Google Now Location Based Reminders. Great work Ktempleton. I'm uploading a video to YouTube about how excellent this ROM is. :highfive:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
This is my most stable ROM very little work is needed to maintain it I keep my WiFi on I don't get 4g but 3g is fine glad you like it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Master_Ellis:
I love it so much that I did a YouTube video about it. Hope it brings more people to your ROMs.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] johncro13:
Now that the Dev-Host link is working, I downloaded it to see if the issue was with the Android File Host version I linked to before. Both have the same file name, but different MD5 sums. The MD5 on my downloads, however, matched their respective sources, and had the same results.

After install and initial boot, there is no boot animation. After a dirty install, there is also no "Android is updating," just darkness. Once the capacitive buttons light, I can touch the screen and in the general area where I imagine the initial setup wizard's first button would be, I get a haptic reaction. The screen remains blank, however, until rotated. In landscape, I can see the right-most 1/4 of the screen.

I suspect this is a bad boot animation issue, as I had a similar experience with my first android phone, the HTC Hero, ages ago.

Has anyone else had this issue with the 5.3 build, or have any other recommendations?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Master_Ellis:
What recovery are you using? I'm using TWRP 2.5 and ROM booted perfectly. I'm on the 5/14/2013 build.

I have an issue with the google music app, once in a while a pop up says that google music stopped working. I unistalled and downloaded the one from the play store but I still get the same problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
Try and recreate the issue and see if you can narrow it down a little and get me a log cat
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bcparker:
I'm going to do my best to try and narrow things down and get to the bottom of this, but since I did a clean install to update to the newest build (I hadn't updated in a couple months), the new version hasn't been playing nice with my device. I think it's a lz kernel snafu. I've been running it for three days with light use (under one hour screen on time) on a new-ish two month old battery and I've only gotten about 10 hours battery life when I was getting almost a day before.

I noticed a real problem when I fully charged my battery on airplane mode, unplugged it and left my phone completely alone for about 3 hours, on Airplane mode and when I checked it again the battery had dropped from 100% to 69% in 3 hours in flight mode and GSAM reported 99.6% app usage with 99% of that usage being "Kernel (Android OS)" with 2 hr 52 minutes CPU usage and CPU usage (background).

I'm going to try reflashing the ROM then the kernel separately and then get a logcat, but as it stands now I'm a sad panda. Any other suggestions before I try another clean install?

Upgraded From Pacman 4.1 issues

I upgraded this phone from Pacman, that i flashed 3-4 months ago that i flashed from ICS stock.

Now i have 2 issues,

1. The screen keeps shutting off every 5 seconds, and when i talk and the phone screen goes off i cant here anything.

2. The email app is missing.

Can it be i have to upgrade stuff besides the ROM i am NooB maybe base-bands or radios don't know if yes pls link.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
OK first off it sounds like you have an app or apps that are causing a wake lock or something because this kernel sleeps better than any I've run on any phone so do a log before you clean install get a app that monitors stuff that runs like CPU spy and see if you can find which app is doing this if you can't find it that way then clean install and install your apps one at a time and give it some time in between apps like an hour or so one at a time until you find it Thomas is working on a program that will clean everything up but for now this is your path

This is a bug throughout ROMs built with dastins device trees it came back after the mics were reverted before it had a horrible echo for the callers and it made the phone unusable find a way to keep the screen on

You should have the email apk try DL aio zip from the add on link in first post wipe and install
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AreOh:
Anyone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tzvblsm:
Can you pls tell me a ROM that does not have this bug. and is more stable?

And is the bug that callers don't here me when the screen is off ?

Re: [ROM]SlimBean JB 4.2[Light&Fast]E4GT SPH-D710

Did you use the slim gapps. If you did then try to change your DPI to 240
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
That is the bug some of these ROMs have it less than others this one usually has it less than them all your other options are the stock rooted roms
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Master_Ellis:
No I've never got one single Play Store soft reboot. Try the playstore zip file in the OP or do a google search and grab the latest apk. If you go into System Settings-General-LCD Density-and follow thru the steps you should have perfectly working PlayStore. I have my LCD density set to 220. Make sure to follow the steps. Also make sure you are flashing Slim Gapps for this ROM other GAPPS can cause problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ktempleton:
If you use slim gapps you don't have to worry about the density because it is a multi DPI play store
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tzvblsm:
This is totally a noob question, but will stock rooted roms come debloated, and can you pls link me to it?

This is not my primary phone will take me time to find it

Thanks your the best.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Master_Ellis:
I have no such issues on this ROM. What recovery are you using? I use TWRP 2.5 if you don't have it please install it. Do a full wipe. Flash the ROM make sure it's not a bad download (better to download ROM to PC than directly to phone) Make sure you download Slim GAPPs size should be around 24 megabytes.

Battery Drains even when plugged in!

I have a massive problem with my phone.

My battery was fine when my phone was on 4.1 AOKP. Flashing it to 4.2 changed everything!

I first flashed it to Beanstalk, and saw that the battery would slowly drain, even when it was plugged in. This included whether it was on 4g or wifi, if the screen was on or off, it would just drain while it was on. The only way to charge it was to shut everything down and leave it plugged for a while.

Then I flashed to this rom, SlimBean. And I am seeing the same thing. What's going on here? Everything was fine a week ago on 4.1, now when I enter the new Rom space, everything is going nuts. Any solutions?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gamepro602:
Have you tried a different charger/ cord, I had that problem, somehow it was the cord for some reason
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patach:
I have tried 3 different cords, two wall chargers and one straight from the computer. It's odd because these used to be fine for charging my phone under 4.1. I just flashed to Slim Bean yesterday afternoon, I know Battery is supposed to be weird on flash, but this is the first time I saw behavior like this.

Also BeanStalk did exactly the same thing for a week.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
You should try to recalibrate your battery. You can use ROM tool box pro for that or just look up battery calibrate on the play store. I would also recommend changing your governor to Pegasusq and I/O to sio. If that doesn't work try to wipe all data and see how you fair with a clean install. Make sure you make a back up and make sure the back up works by checking the size of the file under Twrp's backup folder. It should be several hundred megabytes in size. I would also recommend buying a new battery. I use a double capacity battery and it gives me all day power. And that's with moderate to heavy use.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] l3gacy28:
Quick question, I bought two new Anker 1800mAh batteries from amazon and was wondering, how often should I switch between the two batteries so that one doesnt lose its charge capacity? and when should i start the charging process of the battery that I am currently using?

(Battery was just the 1800 maH Anker Battery instead of the included 1800 maH Samsung one)
