No need for the alternate data fix as data works upon installation.

I used cwm to flash (and we're noticing a trend that those who used cwm aren't having issues) and in cwm first I did factory reset, wipe cache & dalvick. Then I formatted everything except the internal and external sd. Flashed the ROM and correct gapps and have not experienced issues (and can reboot too). Also, I wasn't using a JB modem so I didn't need to flash a new modem.

Hope that helps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
Doing a factory reset after flashing the rom fixes all boot issues!

Factory reset/flash rom/flash gapps/factory reset again/profit.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
I'd dispute the need for the factory reset after gapps.

Smarter method: Factory reset/wipe cache/wipe dalvick/format everything but internal SD and external SD/flash rom/flash gapps/reboot system
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalmorphinex:
Has anyone tried installing a custom kernel yet?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
Well I suppose that would be the exact same thing since a factory reset is formatting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
Well you suggested folks do a factory reset AFTER flashing ROM and gapps which is why I clarified
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
Yeah doing it after flashing the rom is the only thing that worked for me. Doing it before, like I usually do when flashing a rom, prevented the phone from booting past the splash screen. That's why I suggested it. Someone recommended this method a few posts back and I was verifying that it does indeed work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jshugzda:
For some reason this seems odd and im worried about doing a factory reset after installing the rom and gapps. There has to be a better way. Hope someone can come up with one :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Holding down the power button till the phone restarts works for me perfectly. :)

But doing the same from recovery doesn't. :l
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
I've posted the actual solution twice; just make sure you're using cwm to flash.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IamFlynn:
Been having random reboots the whole day, just flashed yesterday. Running FL24 modem.

Reboots happen when watching youtube videos.... I don't know if this helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] biglama:
Yes. Blasphemy for 4.3. Runs great but you have to remap the home button. Page 17 in the blasphemy thread for the fix I believe.

That or a Google search for "blasphemy kernel home button fix" should get you the proper page.

Still no Data for me

I've been On board since the September build. No luck with the data this time either for me.

Solutions I've tried.

Alt carrier fix

messing with APNs

fl 24 modem

Switching Wifi and data on and off

Messing with airplane mode

Anyone have anything else they've tried thats worked?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I thought it was just happening to me almost everytime I watch YouTube videos my phone reboots also.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
1. Use CWM recovery.

2. Factory reset, wipe cache & dalvik

3. Format everything EXCEPT Internal SD & External SD

4. Flash ROM

5. Flash correct gapps

6. Reboot

7. Enjoy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mazz1916:
Thank you Fit Chicago I just spotted your post. I got a PM from a new forum user (Genesius01) with something similar to your fix, seeing as I used his solution I'll post it here so people can give either one a go.

Genesius01

"Had the same issue, here's what fixed it for me : reboot into recovery, do factory reset, clear cache and Dalvik cache, then go under mounts and storage and format /system. Flash the build and gapps. That got my data working normally"

Thanks for the help guys. I will be donating to the Dev, thanks for a great Rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deaver_92:
Anyone try MMS yet? Mine doesn't seem to be working. At least for sending. I don't know about receiving. Fixes?

Edit: Also pressing and holding 1 gives me a pop up that says to enter a number for voicemail to call in menu>settings. It won't let me set it though. I enter the number and hit OK and nothing happens.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
I would recommend using Google Voice for your voicemail because it works fine with this ROM and is really a phenomenal service that IMO is far superior to Sprint's voicemail.

---------- Post added at 02:03 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:01 PM ----------

Good luck, let us know how it goes.

PS Make sure you use CWM recovery to flash, from the posts here it seems CWM is the key to success.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deaver_92:
Depends on which version you use. I used el29 direct boot and it got stuck on the 2nd boot. Did another clean flash with the included recovery and success.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] l3gacy28:
Does anyone where to get the theme that allows this batter percentage option? I swear I thought I had the apk file or zip file for it earlier but it got deleted off my SD card I guess :/
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
I use the Ubuntu theme and like it a lot. While it lacks the % symbol, everything is very clear:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalmorphinex:
Yes it does show percentage. Switch your battery icon to just icon and reboot. I use Ubuntu too.. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I can verify reboots on YouTube app. It was happening on last release for me as well. I can add that it only happens for me when switching from portrait to landscape & vice versa.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] guitar112232:
I can also confirm this bug. I noticed when I turn rotation off and keep it on portrait it doesn't reboot as often watching youtube videos.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
It reboots when I switch landscape to portrait on YouTube as well idk why it does that it's annoying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
I get android process phone fc non stop after flashing. Any thoughts. Clean flash md5 check 7/26 4.3 gapps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
You're using the wrong gapps, 8/13 is the right gapps not 7/26
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
I just downloaded updated gapps. 7/26 was first release of 4.3 gapps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] l3gacy28:
My next question, does anyone know how to make status bar transparent? I've tried xposed tweakbox but that didn't work
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
I've been testing out YouTube with rotation for the last couple hours and haven't had a single reboot on my end.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I've tried every version of cm10.2 and every version has the YouTube rotation bug on my end. What modem are you using?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Modems have nothing to do with rotation.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FuMMoD:
If anything check your kernels and try a different one. That's probably what's causing your rotation bug.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IamFlynn:
MMS works for me!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FitChicago:
Finally tested MMS today and can confirm that sending and receiving is flawless.

has anyone been able to get TWRP to work with this ROM
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mlock420:
Heys guys what is the difference in 4.3? Just curious... btw I downloaded October 1 and data is working no problems thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
Third day running this rom and it's pretty dang flawless.

Only issue I've come across is randomly my phone will show 3g connected but data doesn't work until it is toggled. This usually occurs after leaving a low signal area.

Could just be my device since my e4gt is a piece of garbage, but thought I'd throw it out there anyway incase somebody else experiences something similar.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
There's 2.6.3.0 that is compatible with 4.3 but the developer uploaded an incomplete recovery (non working)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
Still not working for me. Same android process phone fc. Redownloaded ROM md5 check 8/13 gapps. Tried it with and without blasphemy kernel. Flashed from cwm 6.0.3.6 and 6.0.4.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deaver_92:
Wipe cache/dalvik and fix permissions. Those two are the typical culprit for mass fc's.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
Fix permissions where? This is coming with first boot of clean install.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalmorphinex:
In recovery is imagine.. Same place davlik cache is or w.e..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
That was removed from cwm couple versions ago.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalmorphinex:
Running flawless with blasphemy 6.1 and exit onlys tweaks :D <3 dastin
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mbr007:
Beautiful Rom but 3g data and mms not working for me after l flashed alt carrier data and mms fixes for metropcs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] shaklee3:
Thanks dastin. I came on yesterday because my phone was getting slow, and I was willing to resort to one of the other 4.3 roms. I noticed this came out, so I loaded it. It's working very well, and google voice plus is great.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] crhylove:
I did exactly this process on my wife's phone, and the options menu keeps popping up in several different apps. Anybody else in this behavior? Or do I need to order her a new phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gamepro602:
Looks like you have the phantom menu button :( , it some times happens on this device, mostly in low signal areas.... ether disable the softkeys and use the navbar or take it to sprint for a replacement if you can
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkpoe:
It usually happens in low signal areas when your battery drain is to much for the phone to function well.. a fresh Samsung battery took care of mine and my brothers problems with that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
I have the phantom key as well. You can disable the menu key and use the search key for menu. Can long press search to actually search. Was so annoying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
I installed properly , booted up , set everything up and had the same problem , not getting past galaxy s ii screen . I powered off the phone , booted into recovery and reset factory data , and this fixed it for me so your method does work except I did not reflash . I just came from WFTN to try this . Looks good so far but somewhat buggy as expected . data hands off well , wifi works good . I have a good method for setting my gps birds up but gps is ailing with very few birds coming in and fading in and out . Haven't tried much else yet but will .

GPS works very well on WFTN latest build and the cm 10.1 nightly on my other two s2's , in fact on those the gps works awesome with the most birds locked in the fastest I've ever seen . I'll continue to play with it and look forward to testing this and learning with the rest of you .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
Update....this is getting ridiculous
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Dang , that's awesome . Can you tell me how and where you came up with that battery display at the top ? I'm prolly gonna feel wormy when I find out but its the neatest I've seen compared to the other percentage meters I've seen in this thread .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ZachW_TP_CM:

I cant get any data on virgin mobile, tried many modems all are not working! HALLP
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] FuMMoD:
Do you even use the phone at all? What's the screen on time?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
I'm sure there's a 4300mah battery in there as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] l3gacy28:
Just out of curiosity, is there a way to combine themes? Like take a themed status bar from one, then use a different theme for the dialer, so on and so on
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Only been one day so far but all is good best I can tell. Really feels snappy for me!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalmorphinex:
For the people on flashed devices.. Try doing dastins previous fix with the apnconfig file.. Then data should work and stay connected.. :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Dude! How are you getting that kind of battery life?

I know someone just mentioned you had an extended battery... but I am curious what kernel you are using, clock speeds, governor and I/O, tweaks, etc etc etc.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
Back and forth between wifi and 3g no problems. Everything is great. Using xposed with a few modules. Have not found anything not working for me yet!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DynamicN:
Anyone else having data issues on Virgin Mobile??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poweredge99:
I am not having any data issues on Virgin Mobile. The only finicky thing was getting MMS to work. I am on fl24 modem if that helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttakacs:
Settings > About Phone > Sprint System Updates. Message is "Activate your phone." What? My phone is working: it can receive and accept calls and SMS.

Settings > About Phone > Status > My phone number > "Unknown"

> MSID > "Unknown"

> PRL version > "Unknown"

> Mobile network state > "Disconnected"

Is this normal? I came to Hood Pope from a TW ROM. Before flashing this ROM, I flashed an ICS modem (FL24). Did a full wipe, flashed Hood Pope and GAPPS in CWM, success. My phone can access my business' Microsoft Exchange account.

Update: Because I did not update PRL and update Profile prior to flashing this ROM, I flashed a TW ROM with the ICS modem and did those updates. Flashed Hood Pope ... but no change from the above. Maybe as long as the modem is working, just leave things alone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
After seeing your post I went and retried to send a picture but it never went through. I was receiving them so never thought about it. Also my info as listed above is also blank. Hopefully someone will know what to do.

Oct. 1, 2013 update

Hey guys! Can anybody using the Oct. 1, 2013 update give us some feedback on how well this is working? Is 3g, 4g, wifi, gps working well? Is MMS working as well? Battery life, etc.. Just very brief description. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thatdudepoops:
3g works

4g does not

WiFi works

GPS does not(i have my own hell with GPS of all ROMs)

MMS works

Battery is great. I freeze Google services tho

Quite being scared and try it! The waters great:)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Robles23:
I rely on 4G and GPS a lot :/ I hope and pray this issues get fixed as soon as possible because I am dying to give this a try! :D Im on CM 10.1 4.2.2 I guess I will wait a few more weeks or months until this is fully stable... or close to being stable :D

Thanks for your help brother!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
I might be wrong but I believe this rom is from a device that does not have wimax, so prolly never gonna have 4g. Im sure someone will correct me if mistaken.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dastin1015:
This is compiled from source not ported. WiMAX doesn't work because WiMAX is deprecated for quite some time now and the crespo4g (Nexus S 4G) is no longer supported by AOSP meaning that WiMAX support in AOSP is also dropped.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thatdudepoops:
So basically were witnessing the death of 4g/wimax.

So the d710 doesn't support lte. Android 4.3 doesn't support 4g. No high-speed internet for any 4.3 rom on epic touch....I might shed a tear
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Other than the one guy who reported gps issues.... It is working for everyone else yeah?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adreaver:
I would take any GPS issues with a giant grain of salt. This phone has had GPS issues reported on every ROM, touchwiz and aosp, as far back as ICS.

I have a sticky in general that can help if your GPS doesn't work, but its the phone itself causing the problem, not this ROM.

Sent from my T999L on PAC-man
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
My GPS doesn't work either and it has been a long time and many roms since this has happened. It just always works, until now.

GPS status says there are no satellites to connect to, so the GPS icon in maps just sits there and spins.

Maybe just a fluke but I haven't had my GPS not work since the days of early ICS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EmperorX:
Those with data working... Did you make sure your wifi was turned off?

I've made that mistake before ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Big Boy Laroux:
Also, those with data not working - did you do a dirty or clean flash (clean meaning wipe data as well as cache/dalvik)?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TJj33p3rz:
Dang forgot to check that lol time to try again :thumbup:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Noctourniquet:
I did a clean flash from wild for the night. I just tried it again and had the same result. FL24 modem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
Same here clean flash (cache/data/dalvik/system) no data tried to reboot through power menu and just powered off. Tried to boot and it stuck on sgs2 splash screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] l3gacy28:
I had that the first time, I have no idea why that happened but wiping cache and dalvik allowed me to reboot again
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jwhyte:
Thanks. It was enough for me to restore nandroid. I'll try again later.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
An hour in and can confirm:

1. No Data on FL24 (complete data/dalvik wipe x2)

2. No superuser

3. Focal is taking pics at a 270 degree (Stock camera is fine/must be a CM issue)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TJj33p3rz:
I tried again too no data hmm weird
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abadasstanker69:
You need to flash su in recovery per the OP. Camera is listed as broken. Data apparently is YMMV. I personally have it working on el29. Now that I think about it though....I may have had WiFi on too. Obviously it's not DD ready and I'm in the middle of getting a job so I couldn't stay on it. I'll test again as time permits. For now, I have to make you guys a site for Dastin to host his work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] svicenty:
I think data is working when WiFi is on

Interesting my GPS is working great. Locks quick even inside my work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] poweredge99:
I used Google maps for this...

I had no issues with GPS locating my phone. It's is amazingly accurate for once. I am so use to not using it, I didn't check until I read the prior posts here.

The only issue was a reboot that was preceded by a freakishly fast map rotation around my little icon. Maybe 3 rotations a second... After the reboot it is back to tracking me accurately and quick.... Maybe 2 seconds to find me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DEF3NDER:
Yeah several hours later at the exact same spot it locks perfectly. These phones are finicky as hell.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] graffix31:
Really finicky. I have two actually. A rooted personal and a stock work. Both have started having GPS issues only very recently. Always worked perfect up until recently. My bil is the exact same thing. His is rooted to

Definitely not flashing 4.3 rom to my Epic 4g. I am quite disappointed.. :/ I was really anxious to give this a try. I guess I'll stick around with CM 10.1 4.2.2

Thanks everyone for their answers!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] CyberpodS2:
My GPS it's super fast on this rom but one thing I noticed is the compass seems a little squirrelly at times. Not enough to notice much when driving around with maps but if standing still you see it shifting around a bit.

---------- Post added at 09:33 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:29 PM ----------

Since there are more cows than people around here we have little chance of 4g. I have only seen 4g twice in two years so no loss for me. Lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mazz1916:
I've had the mod up and running for about a week on virgin mobile and am loving it. I do have some quirkiness with gps like some others.

Virgin mobile doesn't seem to support the forwarding of messages.

I searched the thread and noticed blasphemy seemed to be working well for people. So I downloaded the latest version, wiped cache and dalvik and my phone went into a bootloop for about 30 minutes. Could it be a bad download? Or should I be flashing kernels differently in 4.3?

Make sure you grabbed the 4.3 kernel

Love the ROM. Many thanks.

I wanted to ask for help. I've flashed my device to page plus (vzw MVNO). I cannot get MMS to work despite making necessary changes to apn-config.xml in /etc. Is there any reason why page plus MMS wouldn't work on this phone? The phone number assigned to the phone is not the original one that came with the device. Is there some secret method? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NavalFluff:
Definitely tried to flash the 4.2 one by mistake. Thanks for the help :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thedarksavant:
I don't know about the 4.3 kernel, but the 4.2 Blasphemy kernels do not have cache building issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zxo0oxz:
Uh, that is a LZ specific issue. I believe it's caused by some of the scripts that it bundles. My kernel includes no such witchcraft. That said, I have not personally tested my 4.3 kernel, as I still run 4.2. And on top of that, the install script will automatically wipe the caches for you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Adreaver:
Good to know. I am largely unfamiliar with custom kernels on the e4gt, as for a while team-hydra ( the baked in kernel) was the only game in town. Wasn't sure if the cache issue was a problem with the LZ kernel in particular, or with custom AOSP kernels for the e4gt in general.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NavalFluff:
This ROM is great, running smooth as hell. But, I can't get mms to work. I know of the boost/virgin mobile fix but does that work if my carrier is sprint?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digitalmorphinex:
I'm not 100% sure but I'm almost positive if you use the boost fix you still won't have working MMS.. The fixes change the apns to the providerer and sprint doesnt use boosts apns.. The default APN should already be sprint.. I read in DU that KT fixed MMS when he added the data fix.. Might be a good place to start..
