What kind of battery life is everybody getting?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gqstatus0685:
How do I set GV in my phone as the primary VM. My phone says that Sprint doesn't support it. Any tips?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] fr4nk1yn:
As noted the sprint_vvm.apk needs to be found and installed.

The camera app in CM6 doesn't have the widescreen resolution.

Early on I bought Camera360 to see if the photos would come out better. I'm using that now and it supports the widescreen resolution. Has some other nice features like IS.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DraginMagik:
your 'issues' are old and have been resolved.

battery life depends on how you use your device.

how you device is configured/setup

what kernel you are using

i have run cm6 with my standard usage for over 28hrs w/ the snap kernel. some can't make 14hrs. /shrug same issue as with the Sense ROMs.

kernels available to CM6 are

snap

kingklix

stock

enjoy

I am glad to see roms start appearing.

Just wanted to show my appreciation for your dedication even though you are lacking an Epic.

Is this based on the new ota from sprint

Yes it is : )

Have any of you guys flashed both this and noobnl's ROM? Currently Im running noobnls and its pretty stable so for. But it still has TouchWiz. So since Boss is suppose to run stock, can any of you tell me if Boss is as bug free as noobnls?
[Epic 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
What custom kernel does this rom have. When I check settings>about phone>kernel version it says 2.6.29. Isn't that the stock kernel for DI07 or am I mistaking?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Since Andromeda Galaxy has shown me bad battery life thus far, I'll be testing this out when I get home. Is it based off of DI07? I know it says newest OTA in the OP, but I wanna be sure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KyleCole90:
It's Based off of DI07

Is this kernel better than the stock one? noobnl said the stock one was better than his in his own thread or is this a new one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
I tried to flash this 4 times and it flashed ok. However, the problem that I'm running into is that my apps does not reinstall. I tried Mybackup Pro as well as Titanium backup. I even manually re-installed all my apps from the market. On all occasions, i get the message that everything was restored. But when I go to my app drawer none of my apps are there. I turn the phone off then back on and i get a black screen with the capacitive buttons lite up and it doesn't go any further than that.

have anyone else ran into this problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] M@XLOL:
Was your last rom deodexed?
[Epic 4G Android Development] plmiller0905:
I was using Noobnl Andromeda Galaxy rom. I wiped data/factory reset and cache before flashing the boss rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] evoguyfhp:
Cant get face book calender too sync...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Vertig0:
everything was working fine till I started to install all my apps, especially LauncherPro.... cant get it to work and after reboot all I have is a black screen with all the lower buttons lighted up.

any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fidelio_o:
I am having this problem right here, I dont have a task manager when I long press the home button, it just goes to a black screen and I have to re flash the rom. Also, When I installed Launcher Pro I got the same result.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ScientificOne:
+1....same issue here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Install the latest version of WIFI tether from teh market should be pre-9

As for wired just goto running apps and clear the data AFTER you install the new WIFI

I've had just about every one of these issues testing this rom and related kernles over the past week or two.

And out of my personal experiance and reading researching and much discussion on IRC channels etc. I have to recommend that everyone take these steps to install ANY ROM And most KERNELS

MAKE SURE YOU HAVE A NANDROID SAVED.... Should be the first thing done after ROOTING ANY PHONE

1. Make sure you have the LATEST CLOCKWORK recovery Installed the OLD version is not reliable enough IMO

2. Place the Rom File or Kernel on the ROOT of your SD card

3. Boot into the Recovery using w.e method works for you.

4. Navigate to WIPE USER DATE and select and wipe 2 times

5. Navigate to ADVANCED and select WIPE DAVIK 2 times

6. Navigate back to INSTALL ZIP

7. Navigate to the Rom or Kernel your trying to install and select to install it

8. Navigate to REBOOT and select

10. After phone is fully booted and MEDIA Scanner is COMPLETED wait an additional minute or two then go back to number 3 and repeat to step 8

DO NOT USE TITANIUM BACKUP TO RESTORE ANY APPS OR USER DATA. Until it gets updated. Also if you use ROOT EXPLORER there is a NEW WORKING Update on the market

It seems like allot of work but the Epic Reboots amazingly fast it takes all of 5 minutes and seems to Clear ALL ISSUES
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fidelio_o:
I have wiped all data a few times now, but its still happening. :( Really like it otherwise, but LauncherPro is a must for me, and I love the task manager when u long press it, use it all the time. Hoping we get a fix soon, or a work around.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
And you have the new recovery and flashed the rom twice after wiping user data?

One other suggestion I can give you if your upto it. is flash the newest full OTA rooted rom then this one
[Epic 4G Android Development] rasstar:
Now I know why these companies create android skins. The stock look is absolutely ugly and looks outdated. I prefer to stick with touchwiz than try what I saw in that video.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fidelio_o:
I flashed to this from stock. I odin to stock before flashing this one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
I'll wait til all the LauncherPro issues are resolved :) rjmjr I see there is no mention of making backup / restore in your procedure there. I was going to use Titanium, but I guess that is not the way to go then. If I want to keep all my apps / settings, should I backup in Clockwork Recovery and restore after I flash the ROM? I've never used nandroid or clockworkmod recovery before. Hell I finally just got around to rooting my epic and putting clockwork on it yesterday.

Kyle, Geniusdog, thanks for all the work on this, can't wait to try it out. Trying to get the whole procedure straight on backing up and flashing this before I start.

EDIT: Didn't see that tid bit about nandroid, sorry
[Epic 4G Android Development] Vertig0:
Thats is the way I install all ROM, except for the repeat 3-8. I just did it again and before installing anything I installed Launcher Pro and after 20 seconds went black with white lights on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
Guys, make sure you double flash the rom. It will fix a LOT of issues, if not all. And make sure you are coming from stock or if you aren't, then make sure you wipe EVERYTHING!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrkrabs:
How do I switch to let's say adw...I install..hit home but no option to switch launchers
[Epic 4G Android Development] Echelaunch:
Download the Home Switcher app off of the market.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tricex2:
Get home switcher from the market your problem will be solved.

Edit: Ha we posted at the same time good advice
[Epic 4G Android Development] Vertig0:
did it twice (4 times) and still having problems after installing LauncherPro.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rmartinez2:
Did anyone have trouble receiving mms after installing this rom? Im able to receive text but when I get picture mail it just has a download button instead of the thumbnail of the attached pic. If I click download it says unsuccessful..... Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Fixter:
are you using wifi?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Sorry your right I should mention a nandriod but at that point everyone who roots should immediately make one.... Ill re post thank you
[Epic 4G Android Development] rmartinez2:
Wow apparently I have to wait between posts I didn't know I was a "new member" I feel I been on here a while...... I digress. No I'm not currently using wifi, should I be?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Yeah... Does this app happen to run correctly on any roms that are out right now?

I think they might need an updating.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] Vertig0:
it does... running baked with MixUp kernel, no problems.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nanncee:
Same thing going here.

[Epic 4G Android Development] FuzzyLumpkins:
Same thing... No picture mail...
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
I have a simple question, it's my first time flashing any ROM.

So I made a nandroid backup and flashed the ROM following all the steps. Obviously, now I have none of my data (apps / settings) in the current ROM. What is the easiest way to transfer just my data there (apps / settings such as contacts, phone numbers, app settings, etc.)? If I do a full nandroid restore in Clockwork, it'll obviously just wipe the whole system and restore it to what it was before. Can this even be done with nandroid or do I have to go some other route?

Basically, how do you guys constantly test out ROMs and preserve your data between them? Thanks. Sorry for the noob question :o
[Epic 4G Android Development] maldito.boss:
no download

i was trying to download a picture from my ex that she send me by mms or sms whatever it is!!!.....(lol) and i cant download it with Tha Boss rom v.02.... i think is a bugg cuz when i download pictures with the noobl andromeda rom it works great!..
[Epic 4G Android Development] mjolnir677:
Had the same thing and here is how I fixed:

Terminal Emulator or adb (I used Terminal)

$su

#remount rw

Remounting /system (/dev/stl9) in read/write mode

#cd /system/app

#rm Mms.apk

reboot

download the MMS apk that krazyflipj mentions on post #168 of this thread and copy to the root directory of your sdcard

then back to Terminal:

$su

#remount rw

Remounting /system (/dev/stl9) in read/write mode

#busybox cp /sdcard/Mms.apk /system/app

Now I can get pictures as well as receive txts while on my wireless connection

Still can't get Wired Tether to work but the latest version of PDANet works well enough. Sticking with Wireless tether. (which only worked after removing and replacing with a freshly downloaded APK)
[Epic 4G Android Development] KyleCole90:
TouchWiz version coming tomorrow night
[Epic 4G Android Development] richse:
Contacts are restored by Google. For apps I use titanium backup. For my home screens, I like to use Launcher Pro and it has a built in backup you can access through the preferences.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Thanks richse, I guess I need to spend a day just importing contacts into Google. I transferred from ATT to Sprint so they copied all SIM contacts to my Epic (all 250 of them or so). Kyle suggested against Titanium in his OP, which is why I asked. If it's okay though, I will use it. I guess this is what everyone else is doing in terms of restoring after flashing ROMs.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
Will the touchwiz version have the fix for the home replacement and mms issues?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Why spend a day....lol....export them and then import them into Google....
[Epic 4G Android Development] ggoldfingerd:
Here is the quickest way. Go into contacts, hit menu and export to your sd card. Now import them back into your google account. This will sync all your contacts with google. You can do any editing on your pc after your done.

So I flashed rom twice downloaded and downloaded pre 9 and wifi tether still doesn't work.... it isn't showing up on my evo...its not broadcasting someone help please

guide on installing custom ROM

I will be getting the Sprint Epic 4g phone next week.. i am coming from a WinMo phone so this is very different for me..

i was able to read/understand the guides on how to Root and install Clockwork..

but i am lost at how to install these custom ROMS.. along with instruction on wiping all data and flashing the ROM 2x..

is there any guide which goes over all this information?

i assume i am not the only one with this question.. and should be helpful for future users as well..

thanks!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Despiadado1:
I just flashed back to my previous rom (andromeda) because something is really wrong here. I followed the data\cache wipe steps and 2 installs but immediately started getting spammed with force closes of core and mail processes as soon as I added accounts. Beyond that, I could see the market and select apps but downloads wouldn't start after selecting to install.
[Epic 4G Android Development] harrybozack:
Disappointed

I'm really disappointed Launcher doesn't work still. I get a black screen that never changes!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeremyglass:
Sweet!

After going back and installing build 30 in clockwork...updating to new version, creating a recovery back up, and following the steps on page one the ROM is sweet! It is insanely fast with the only thing not working so far it Ti backup. So I am trying to figure out a way for me to get all of my apps back. From what I understand the recovery backup will take me back to the stock rom....correct? The other question I had is under the phone information is still says 2.6.29 for Kernal version....is that the stock kernel or is is the MixUp Kernel? Other than that I will report back on battery life and others!

Thanks again to Kyle for taking this head on!
[Epic 4G Android Development] vashht:
I've been running this since last night and its been going great so far. I got launcherpro working using home switcher and so far the only problem I've had is with the brightness switching randomly. Other than that it runs great, very responsive and I'm seeng an improvement in battery life for sure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeremyglass:
Guess I talked too soon....I went back to recovery backup (stock rom), backed up my apps in Astro and flashed (2x) back to this ROM. Everything went well until I restored all of my apps from Astro....I got the black screen, button light up but no screen. I can hear the notification beep, but couldnt get it to work...I am now flashing back to my recovery until this someone can help me on this!

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] KyleCole90:
TouchWiz versions are up :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeremyglass:
Ok reflashed installed all apps....THIS ROM DOES NOT LIKE LAUNCHERS AND WILL GIVE YOU THE BLACK SCREEN!!!

Work around----Download home switcher from the market and BAM!! Back in business!! Will be updating on battery stats tomorrow...

Thanks Kyle!
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
Ehhhh

I still get the black screen after doing all the methods even the home switcher move. This is what happened i got launcherpro to work with homeswitcher everuthing was going good until i installed widget lockscreen and i pressed home the screen went black but came back giving me the option for launcherpro, home and widget lockerscreen. I choose widgetlocker which seem to be the issue since home switcher has launcher pro as default. Then the screen went black. I just want to know will there be a fix for this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
How long did you wait for bootup? First boot can take almost 4-5 minutes out of my experience. And theres a black screen the whole time
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
Well

Well my first boot took about 45 seconds, after the boot up with the black screen it stood there for more then 10 minutes then i give up and went back to andromeda. I'm just wondering they should tell the beta testers to make sure to use a home replacement to see anything has been affected. But i'm going to try again with the touchwiz version to see if anything is different.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ebslater26:
Killer ROM

Figured I would chyme in and say I've been having the LauncherPro issues, just like everyone else. I just tried the new Touchwiz ROM and can confirm it is LauncherPro friendly. Installed it without incident and it is running beautifully.

Way to go on an awesome ROM Kyle! Thanks a mil!
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Out of curiosity, did you have any trouble backing up and restoring apps using Titanium Backup with the new Touchwiz ROM? I really don't want to set up all my apps / app settings manually again after I wipe everything and install this. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeremyglass:
I used astro to backup my apps but it only lets you re-install them so I dont have any "settings" from the stock rom. It say Parse Error when you attempt to restore with Ti so I guess this ROM doesnt support Ti. Hopefully the other pluses will win me over. Tomorrow's battery life will tell!
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
I havent been able to get Titanium backup to work on any custom rom for the epic. The app itself needs to be updated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] xusxmarinesx:
Has anyone got th wifi tethering to broadcast cause mine doesn't and I need help
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
hey your back. noticed on the twitter you got some stuff fixed. good rom minus the whole alternate launcher problems
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nanncee:
Just flashed again using most of jmrjr method.

Wipe cache x2

Wipe divac x2

flash v2.zip

Reboot

Wipe data x2

Wipe divac x2

Flash v2.zip

Installed titanium, I believe it got updated yesterday. Restored user files and programs. Benchmark on quadrant 1044.

Both tether programs do not work, but sounds like a kernal issue?

Rock solid so far, thanks kyle!

Epic
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
Theres a fix coming for launchers issues hold tight guys!!!!

And did it update yeah? Ill have to check it out
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
Titanium back up got an update?? Or the rom did?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nanncee:
Titanium, there was an update last night right before I did a back up. Maybe I was using an older version?

Either way, I backed up and then reinstalled apps after flashing the rom with 0 problems.

Edit: Finally got wifi tether to work by installing pre9 build from their site.. Guess I should of tried that earlier.. ha
[Epic 4G Android Development] KyleCole90:
Thats what was installed, we are having some SU issues but glad you fixed it
[Epic 4G Android Development] SwimDrewid:
Was having terrible battery issues with stock. Looking for a good AOSP rom that i can overclock/undervolt.

Rooted/Clockworked via the linux thread in the forums. Followed the instructions to the T (wipe 3 times, flash 2 times, do the hokey-pokey) and all went well. Did a myBackup Pro restore to my myriad utility/root apps (including widget locker, adw, home helper) and widgets and got the black screen of death.

Factory reset; cleared cache/dalvik x3 re flash x2. Installed 1x1. Half-way thru downloading the 2nd app from the market, I get the error:

"android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again. - Force close".

Repeated the above paragraph with the same results.

Fortunately I made a bu of stock prior to flashing. All is hunky dory.

Has anyone seen this issue?

As much as I want to dump the blur stuff, I'm gonna wait for a rc/stable rom.

That all said, keep up the great work! I look forward to being able to use this soon.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
I'm using this rom. I followed the install instructions. Girt thing I did was use tb to install home switcher and launcher pro. I haven't had any problems
[Epic 4G Android Development] rmartinez2:
Has anyone else had issues trying to restore a backup of this rom. I can get it installed with no issues then set up and install things I want then I make a backup in cwm. Then something comes along like a theme or something that I wanna try so I do confident in the backup I've made. When the time comes to get back by restoring a backup I do the whole clear data,cache, and dalvik. It restores but I get nothing but force closes and have to go back to a stock backup....
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Finally running my first ROM :) I can say everything was flawless. Made a nandroid backup of my stock ROM + Titanium backup of all my apps, followed the steps in the OP to install ROM of choice (I picked the Touchwiz No Voodoo Color), then restored apps from Titanium backup. All restored apps work flawlessly. Also, no problems at all with LauncherPro here, I even restored that, then pressed home, and chose it as my default homescreen.

Only problem I'm having is with wired tether (I had an issue with wifi tether as well, but downloaded the newest one from the market and that one works now). The USB process keeps force closing on me, I'm not sure why. If it doesn't crash, then I get the message "Unsupported kernel". This isn't a big issue as I use PDANet anyway. Any real benefit of being able to run the wired tether app? I will report on battery life sometime in the next few days (this was my main reason for installing the ROM, the undervolted + overclocked CPU). So far so good. Thanks Kyle / Geniusdog!

EDIT: Wireless tether app kept crashing too so I followed a previous poster's suggestion and just grabbed the latest pre9 build from the website. However, when I click to start tethering, it is granted superuser permissions from superuser, but keeps saying "Unable to start tethering. Please try again!" I'm not sure what's wrong but I really wanted to try out wifi tether :( Also, highly recommend you guys update to the newest Titanium, seems to work flawlessly with these ROMs now.

EDIT2: Reinstalled wired tether app from the website and now it gets past the unsupported kernel screen, but same unable to start error as the wireless app after it requests and gets superuser permissions. Anyone know what's up?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dalvarez7:
Links in OP

I just downloaded No Touch *Updated, No Voodoo Color and when I installed the ROM, I saw TouchWiz? I even wiped data/cache 3 times as recommended. Are the links correct?

EDIT: Now I understand. :)
