Hey yeah me too. I'm on the newest nightly, It's not impacting my battery though. It's been flat for the last hour. The signal thing seems to be fixed ^ ^
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
Doesn't work on 4.3 either...just letting you know
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ryuk666:
Compared to what mine was before updating to the latest nightly my battery has gotten worse.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
When you guys update the nightly, are you flashing dirty, or are you basically doing a clean flash every night when a new one comes out?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
Ooops I lied! the wifi is fine. I'm using this one http://www.emccann.net/dho/3-Vanir-...16-2014_nightly/B64-nightly-Commotio-d710.zip

OC at 1.6 and no problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ryuk666:
Oh so you're running the latest commotio. Yeah I'm running the latest vanir nightly (2/17) and it has this wifi problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
I usually dirty flash… but i make a nandroid and a titanium backuo first. In case i hit a snag i can get back up quick… or i need to clean install and reinstall my apps. So cache and dalvik wipe and see what happens… :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
I usually clean flash so that any problems I might run into I can attribute to the new rom and not something that's a result of a poor flash technique . I can dirty flash just fine but It seems I always have some little quirky problem here or there that has nothing to do with the new rom . How can I go to DHO and say , hey DHO this isn't working when it does work had I clean flashed ? I like to be sure when I report an issue that it is a legitimate issue . We all use the same phone and for the most part should be sharing the same base problems . I can't go to DHO with issues where someone is overclocking for example and having a random reboot . If you operate outside the parameters of the phone ( overclocking for example )then you pretty much are unsupported and that's only reasonable . These guys have enough troubles trying to keep 40 phones going with new implementations within stock guidlines

Let me show you an example with a screenshot . Its pretty obvious in the picture of Commotio I just took that there is no battery issue here and yes wifi is off . Wifi has been on a few times but for the most part off . These are stock settings and that's the stock battery screen .That was also a clean flash . There's been no random reboots , not a single issue for me . Now I also have another phone that I clean flashed yesterday's Commotio on that I'm also observing for battery life , issues of any kind so I can compare the extreme kernel statisitcs to the stock kernel statisitcs in the this picture . Lets face it . yes dirty flashing can be done with decent results but I can testify flashing on a daily basis for test reasons I like to start on a clean platform . Every nightly build usually contains something new and experimental and maybe the phone will like it and maybe not .If I report something I want to be sure I flashed in such a way I can rule out my flashing technique as the culprit .

My point is if you want to really fix your phone up with all your apps and stuff and you find a really good build that has exceptional battery life with very few issues then consider sticking with it . If you want to be bleeding edge pushing performance to the limits with nightly dirty flashes then be prepared for burps , farts and hiccups and most likely poor battery life that the majority aren't having but there's really no avenue for correcting those issues via the deveopers . Here is an old rule of thumb the developers tend to go by . If you don't have a logcat or catlog then it didn't happen .

I added an additional picture of where I am on battery stats with the 02-17-2014 Commotio with Extreme Kernal at stock settings .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
Hey [MENTION=5391876]MonstaDriva[/MENTION] thats a sweet sig. I usually don't complain unless i've gone through your process too. It's fun being able to overclock and switch to art but can't complain either. Wiping data almost always fixes any odd problems. But the one that don't thats when we all test.

thanks again for being the middle guy for DHO ^ ^
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kevin cracolici:
That's the way I usually do it. If I do do a dirty flash and I have problems I'll clean flash first to see if corrects
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
[MENTION=5391876]MonstaDriva[/MENTION]

I see that sig is getting some attention… it is sweet..:good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Lol yeah and I'm with you , I do format system ! Thanks for fixing me up on the sig bud . :good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
NP… thanks for bringing this rom into the fold.:good:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gil81:
Ya ive been formating system before installs since back on my old hauwei ascend days..now that device had gremlins in it..lol. you could run a rom for weeks and then it would just crash and you would have to wipe everything and reflash to get it to work again.:eek:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ryuk666:
I format all the things when I update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LucentBirch:
Has anyone ever heard of "SANpowerlock"? I just had it keep my phone awake for 45 minutes and kill my battery...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperGoober:
No , is that app ? What rom and date you on ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LucentBirch:
I'm on 2/10/14. It was some kind of partial wakelock...couldn't really tell where it was coming from. All I know is that the bloody thing kept my phone awake and drained my battery...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperGoober:
I haven't heard of it and haven't had that issue . I'm on 02-18 I still have 74 % after 1 day and 10 hours and this has the extreme kernal with it . Has anyone tried Vanir Center ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
Was that full charge? I get 3 hours on avg when I'm playing games on 1.6 GHz OC. Its a double capacity so do the math. Maybe try greenify. What other things do you have on? Radios?

SANpowerlock appears to have to do with device management. I can't say much since I know little Java :P what kernel are you on?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dirtyhewr:
Just got this for benchmark... Think it's a glitch? Lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperGoober:
You beat me by 400 . Thats the best I've seen so far . Your running ART and must have been at 1600 ? Thats awesome man ! Is that Vanir or Commotio ? For some reason mine is always higher on Commotio But no , its not a glitch . Run An tu tu and see what you get .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
So Commotio is basically Vanir with some under-the-hood tweaks? I flashed both and don't see any differences in the settings menus or anything.

I got Vanir all set up the way I like it and did a nandroid and am wondering if it's worth getting Commotio set up, too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
Of course it is!:cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
So you prefer Commotio over Vanir?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
Not what I was implying...just that trying both is definitely worth it:D, to see which you like;). Do it!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackmeth:
i use Commotio personally mainly because it seams that the new patches apply into Commotio before Vanir. not always but DHO keeps it alittle ahead of the other builds it seams.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
I didn't think that's what you meant. I went ahead and set it up and it works well. I'll go ahead and stick with it and see how it works for the long haul.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
They're both good ROMs, kinda similar. That's why I said you just have to try and see...mostly personal preference really;). Good luck and have fun!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
Always :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AaronCompNetSys:
I missed this and have been fighting with other ROMs, I'll be sure to try this next. Please bold this or maybe make it more apparent in the first post that everything is working?

Also, I'm currently having a wifi wakelock issue with CM10.1. Would I be correct to assume that this ROM has no issues with that?

I plan on using the device with Ting, can anyone give me any tips or warnings?

Edit: I got google search to work while XDA's is down.

I think I have this APN zip lieing around, not sure where I got it or if its the newest one.

I found other mention of the wakelock with slim, so I hope that's confirm that its fine in this one.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
This worked for me without having to flash any APNs:

Make a shortcut on your homescreen to Activities->com.android.sprintmenu->mmsc

Tap that shortcut and change the mmsc entry to http://www.plspictures.com

That got MMS working, and with a few settings in Textra, I can send MMS over wifi to save on data.

I did find a flashable APN zip here, but I didn't notice any difference afterwards. I didn't test it all too much, though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AaronCompNetSys:
Thank you both for the quick responses.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LucentBirch:
My phone locks up oc-ing to 1600...sad day
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
Not a problem at all. Hit me up if you have any questions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
Yep. Try raising the voltage. It will take a toll on your battery. Plus it's not that useful. But if you just wanna play...

I've never used an app that didn't work properly at .8 GHz but YMMV

You might break your phone. But I'm only saying that cause my lawyers recommend it ?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LucentBirch:
This is the strange wake lock that will start. I haven't pinpointed if there's anything that causes it......only rebooting stops it
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Maybe try disabling an app at a time until you can pinpoint it . Maybe disable active notification features one at a time etc ... . I haven't encountered that . Also if you could grab a log and specify what rom and build date . I'll install that build as well and see if it happens here . I'd want to use same gapps , apps and settings as you .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Update

Just wanted to update where I'm at on the Extreme kernel battery test that I posted the other day . I never figured it would last this long . This 02-17 Commotio is the stuff . If you notice the extreme weak signal then you know its straining to maintain it .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LucentBirch:
I've been getting the same kind of results, freaking awesome kernel! Now I just need to be on WiFi that doesn't keep my phone awake for forever and I'll be all set.

---------- Post added at 09:10 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:08 AM ----------

The thing is that I would have to keep the log running all day because it doesn't happen all the time, nor does it happen every day...it's very strange. Which logging app do you guys recommend? May have more questions after that because I've never done one before.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Yeah that would be a huge log . What build and gapps you on and i'll flash one of my phones and keep it on wifi to see if it happens to me .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LucentBirch:
commotio 2/20, latest DHO gapps
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
If WiFi is not allowing your phone to sleep, look in settings>WiFi>advanced, there is a setting for that. I keep mine on "only when plugged in". Hope that helps, if you haven't done that already.;) Only other thing I know is install Greenify and make sure WiFi hogging apps are checked. Mine sleeps like a baby with the two things I just described:cool:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] NavalFluff:
So, is extreme kernel built into the latest Vanir?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffrey567:
Can I use a GB27 modem? if so can I just wipe flash rom coming from GB27 stock... just came back to this device dont know if the going from 4.1.2 to 4.4.2 needs a special partition?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
No, you must use an ICS modem, ones that begin with 'f' basically. No, you don't need a special partition, just read the op. Make sure you have the correct recovery, and you will be OK. Just read the op!;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jeffrey567:
Okay thanks I just had terrible speeds with ics modems never tried fl24 tho speeds came back with gb27 at least for me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackmeth:
Soo I have been playing around with mokee ROM and vanir/commodio.. I have been having issues with CPU staying maxed out after reboots.. But I think I figured it out. Seems to be 3g related.. If my CPU is maxed toggling that on/off gets the CPU to start acting right again.. Can anyone else confirm this works for them also?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Yes its been included for about a week now . I have a phone that's at the 6 day mark without a charge on it running the extreme kernel . . Wondering when its finally gonna give out . The 02-23 nightly also includes some new stuff I think . Navigation bar and Nav ring , Not sure what else .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
[MENTION=5391876]MonstaDriva[/MENTION], I was reading over in the MoKee thread that the bug for outgoing calls seems to be fixed. Should it be reported to [MENTION=2633294]DHO[/MENTION]? Maybe he could check MoKee's commits for this device and see if something is different/new or be added?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Yeah I'll find out from mtb3000 what it is and pass it on . Have you been having that issue on your phone ?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
Yea, vanir, commotion, and mokee all have been doing that for me. I'm trying to ask which version, release or nightly, is being reported as fixed. Just haven't gotten a reply just yet.

Are you not experiencing that?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Ok when you do let me know and thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Not really but I really don't use my phone much for calling . I'm retired and home most of the time with extremely poor signal here so most of my calling is on the home phone . BTW , this battery test I've been running with the extreme kernel is really blowing the other test away . 5 days 20 hours with 32 % left . Stock battery . That's not with anything set special , just booted the normal way . Wifi off of course .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
Ahh...OK, I understand. You're not a retired Monsta"truck" Driva are you?;)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Lol no , my girlfriend gave me that nick long ago :) On that bug , that guy might have made a few calls and assumed it was fixed cause it worked . If its fixed mtb will be the one who fixed it . so we'll find out for sure . I'm liking this nav bar on the 02-23 .Hey have you been seeing expanded desktop and all of that before the latest build ? This was a rough draft of something he was working on . Looks like its included now . https://plus.google.com/photos/1002...5981939088164748482&oid=100278518551580225387
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kthomson205:
OK, lol:cool: I didn't think about that, because sometimes calls work ok, it was just waaay more often not than working for me. But here's hoping anyway:D. I'm about to check it out myself, I haven't used MoKee in a little over a week now. I was just trying to decide which one to use...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
I just don't remember some of this stuff being on the rom . Our bug is common with Mokee and mbt3000 has been on vacation . Unless he just fixed it I don't know . If he did he'll tell me on hangouts .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AaronCompNetSys:
Does the speakerphone auto detect module work for anyone else? I could not get it to work, and when removing it I now get a crash from phone app, I guess there is a hook in it.

I'm getting great flatline battery life on wifi now, deep sleeping properly. The only thing that seems to not be gelling well is location locks, such as ones triggered by Google Now. The resolve rate is seconds to less than a second on my Moto X (adding up to just a minute or two per day), but they add up to be around 30 minutes per day on the D710. Acceptible if you use the Google Now features.

Is there a way cook the auto brighness settings into /system? The stock CM settings are terrible for this device but once adjusted it works very well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
Is this "outgoing call" issue where the person on the other end can't hear you? If so, I've been having that problem, too.

Same here about MoKee. About the drain, try DS batt saver, maybe Greenify?

Nope. I found one and I'm pretty sure it's vanir/comottio only

Strange little bug in the 2-23 Commotio nightly...crooked slider bars.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dirtyhewr:
Quick question...

Does the built in updater work for anyone?

I can't seem to update these ROMs... Either auto or manual... I am running ART, so I really don't want to clean flash and have to change to ART again, and reinstall all apps again every time a nightly comes out...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Inane_Asylum:
So far no outgoing call issues on the 2-24 nightly.

Can't speak to this, I've just been downloading and dirty flashing the nightlies from the link.

Sent from my geosynchronous orbital nuclear platform using pixie dust and sheer willpower.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
I've never actually tried that but my guess would be it's not incremental , probably just checks for new versions .I'm running art too . I just flashed a new nightly with art enabled and didn't wipe a thing and it booted right up just fine with art still enabled . While probably not perfect I do know Vanir is pretty much designed for easy flashing of new nightlies and very forgiving on dirty flashing . I'm using DHO gapps and just tried all the apps , no fc's or problem whatsoever so far . Give it a try with art enabled . Oh yeah , when you said can't seem to update , you mean by the Vanir updater , right ? I flashed mine before I answered your post to verify whether or not I could come out running good with ART still enabled and flashed completely dirty . Running smooth .

Re: [ROM][4.4.2]VanirAOSP & Commotio[[OFFICIAL][SPH-D710] - 02-09-2014

I cannot seem to get this to update in any way. I have tried both CWM and TWRP. I manually download the file. I have tried wiping and not wiping. It just sits at the boot screen forever. The only way I can get this to boot is to do a factory reset, which wipes out ART, and all my apps.. Very strange. I have never had this problem before... I do not really care about the vanir updater. I just want to be able to flash the new nightlies
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Now that is weird , what build were you on and your trying to go to the 24th right ? Ok earlier yesterday I had downloaded the 23rd but hadn't flashed it yet when I first read your post . To try and dupe your problem I did dirty flash the 23rd as I said and it booted right up in a decent amount of time . After your last post I dirty flashed the 24th and it did stay on the animation screen about 3 minutes then it began optimizing apps . When I installed the older build the other day I had reset data , cache and dalvik but then I went to mounts and storage and also manually formatted system . Booted up and switched to ART and have dirty flashed everything since . I can confirm mine is now up and running good on this dirty flash of the 24th with ART intact . When you first flashed this rom to start with the first time did you format the system under mounts and storage ? I've found that to be the best method the first time especially knowing your gonna enable ART ..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dirtyhewr:
Was trying to go to the next one...

Think I'm going to just clean flash the newest one... Enable art again and all that jazz... Maybe then it will start working... Thanx guys...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
Hey , since you are just be sure and format the system under mounts and storage manually . . Don't count on the factory data reset to do it . Do that manually after data , cache and dalvik . Right now I'm dirty flashing Commotio to see how it does going over vanir with art enabled .
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dirtyhewr:
That's another thing... I had the EXACT same problem with commotio... Lol I'll let you know... Thanx for the tip about wiping... I usually still use the format 2x script for a clean flash still lol...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MonstaDriva:
I've never tried that 2x before . I've flashed Commotio and Vanir several times dirty but on Dalvik ,not with ART enabled .So far no go on Commotio dirty over Vanir with Art enabled . I flashed Vanir back over Commotio dirty and all is fine . Art is still intact . Good luck bro and holla back how it goes .

I have noticed a couple of active notifications bugs. I want to log them for you guys, but I need a little help. The first: when both active notifications and animated lock screen notifications are enabled, the latter doesn't show up until you unlock the phone and then turn the screen off and back on again. The second: on the active notifications screen, dragging down to dismiss notification doesn't work...for me at least. What do I need to do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Linux guy:
BTW guys ART is still very experimental and most devs would really appreciate that you didn't use it. Especially since that's really upstream stuff and only Google can/will fix stuff. So if your having issues please remember that. Not to tell you guys what to do with your phones either ^•^

Here is a quick peak at some battery life with an extended battery on this ROM. Qcell 4100, all Google services running except location. While I didn't really use it much, it still receives hundreds of GCM messages a day from my account. Google Now like to do a lot and I can't turn it off without it also disabling on my main phone.

I have one of those. Once you get used to it, its worth it, because it usually lasts all day. But once you put in a stock battery and the original cover it's like a different phone *+*
