Updated from stock. Worked fine, although I was lazy and used OnAir instead of USB for file transer.

I'm in a weak coverage area, generally have less than 1 "bar," but can make voice and data connections fairly reliably. After the update, a solid 3 - same towers, same physical location, same everything. And I'm getting 2-3x the data transfer speed.

As of last night, I was considering a trip to the Sprint store to swap this beast for an EVO, as its battery life and poor signal strength were at issue. Looks like I won't have to... unless Samsung decides to pull a Moment on us and not bless us with 2.2.

(My previous phone was a Droid on VZW, so perhaps I was spoiled.)
[Epic 4G Android Development] helchez:
Alright I've downloaded the update 5 times. No luck. Always get the signature error. Please help. Do I need to do anything other than rename to update.zip / move to sd card / hit volume down camera and power button / select apply sd card update.zip and hit home button. Could someone reposted the update? The file I've downloaded is v3 and is always 27.10mb.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
You are using the wrong one if you are stock........use the attached zip at the bottom of op....
[Epic 4G Android Development] helchez:
Bottom of op..... ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
First post of this thread......op=original post....it is the only attachment in that post....
[Epic 4G Android Development] helchez:
Yeah thanks I realized this the second I posted. Just downloaded the update and installed fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Cool.....glad ya got it!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DRockstar:
Hi, first post on xda... verifying that this works, downloaded from phone, copied to sdcard root, renamed to update.zip, used stock Samsung recovery, and it updated fine. I was running stock DI07 with no roots, kernels, or mods. Thanks to the OP for this as the OTA hadn't reached me yet.

Cheers!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeepman_69:
Wow! Thanks to all on this thread. I was able to painlessly update to DI18 in recovery mode, and for me, my 3G speedtest went from 432Kbit to 1663Kbit on DSL Reports Mobile Broadband speedtest. I understand it doesn't break out upload speeds, but my 3G is working much better. Variables aside, I am very pleased because 4G hasn't come to my neighborhood yet.

Also, my GPS works now!!!!!!! I almost fell out of my chair when I pressed "My Location" and the blue arrow came up within spitting distance of my house. Oh, did I mention I was in a two story house?!!! It was even nicer while driving with a pretty tight blue circle around my location. This phone for me just got even better. :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] katanaram:
finally got the update to work on my all stock rom...

After repeated tries to patch using the wrong zip file, I finally dowloaded the attachment from the original thread and patched my all stock rom succesfully.

Now iam seeing consistent upload speeds of around 400-500Kbps and best part is I am seeing 30-50% icrease in my battery life after the update. Thanks guys....
[Epic 4G Android Development] enforcerx19:
Just tried it this way and it gave me E: Error in /sdcard/update (status 7) installation aborted so i rebooted then phone and when i rebooted it got an alert saying that a new software update was available lol so i got it one way or another gps finally works "sure could have used it last night" but so far phone seems awesome

Clear cache
[Epic 4G Android Development] andre141:
Ok guys, I need some help please!

I am noob here but, I have plenty of experience flashing updates through recovery (stock and clockwork) with my Evo, so I am feeling pretty dumb that I can't get this figured out with my Epic.

I am rooted with joeykrim's One Click Root, but everything else is bone stock.

I am trying to apply the update found in OP of this thread, through samsung recovery (blue).

Coming up with this error:

E: Error in /sdcard/update.zip (status 7) Install aborted.

I have tried using 3 other freshly formatted sd cards like others have suggested, and every time, no luck.

One very strange thing is when I got the actual OTA update, I got the same error. That is what caused me to try and do this the manual way.

Any help anybody can give would be much appreciated!

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] kbounce:
am i the only one this isn't working for? zip from op gives me status 7 error. v3 gives me permissions error. i haven't rooted--not for lack of desire, but because i'm on a mac and i haven't found anything about rooting from anything that's not windows-- but i am using launcher pro. anybody know what i'm doing wrong here? :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] shabbypenguin:
check my sig for help on mac/linux rooting
[Epic 4G Android Development] redhatnick:
Quick question. I've rooted using one-click root and used the SDX app remover to drop sprint bloatware to the SD card. I haven't flashed to another rom or kernel. Am I still considered stock enough to receive OTA updates?

If I want to get back to stock updates would I just have to flash in whole back to factory?

hehe. go easy on me. Three year lurker, first time poster ;).
[Epic 4G Android Development] kbounce:
i checked your link for the osx file. and i'm not sure what i'm doing, but whatever it is i'm pretty sure i'm doing it wrong: i downloaded the files and extracted them. i made the OSX_run.sh file executable (i think?) using "sudo chmod 755 ~/.../osx_run.sh". i press enter and it asks for my password. i enter it and it looks like it's trying to run a script but all it says is "adb not found" (or something like that) over and over again.

this is my first time using android, so i have the technical know-how of a preschooler. i'm completely lost with all of this. any help would really be appreciated...
[Epic 4G Android Development] KenDude:
Just installed the file in the first original post since I have a stock Epic phone and it installed fine, although getting it to boot into recovery mode was a real ***** only about 1 in 10 times of holding the power, volume down and camera buttons would it actually boot to recovery mode as opposed to just rebooting. I installed SpeedTest and ran it and got 378 down and 364 up in a 3G area with 4 bars of signal.

Hope that helps, will monitor battery life!
[Epic 4G Android Development] AndroidSPCS:
I have the exact same error as you and as above.

I have tried clearing the cache, factory reset, etc., nothing works.

I'm on DI07, non-rooted factory condition Epic.

It's frustrating me that the update is not working.
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
you are using the attached .zip on the OP?

try renaming the .zip to update.zip and try it then.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Rabid_Gypsy:
What is this based off of? incubus26jc r15 with some tweaks?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
nope it is based off DZO's 10/1 release of fresh froyo

most awesome note i can say is rouge tools works again
[Touch CDMA Android Development] wellVersed:
hmm i like the thought process behind this build... might give it a try if i hold out a bit longer on the evo. sounds like you're going for rolling back to some more stability and user control. can't argue with that, esp if some of the devs are focusing elsewhere now.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i really like the user having the option to customize their build, that's why i keep alot of stuff in data. I always liked adw launcher a little better than launcher pro's free version just because launcher pro free is pretty barebones compared to its full version.

so i leave stuff in data so its easy to uninstall so its not taking up space if the user has no intent on ever using it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
what kernel do you recommend using?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i have been using l1q1ds off the old kernel branch but its built off fresh froyo so whatever has been working for you in the past should work fine now
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Razzmon:
Making Calls

Hi , I have just installed your "not so froyo" , its nice and fast , but seems a bit laggy when I use wireless for downloads in market app. When I end a call the android startup gif comes up as if its logging in again , can u please assist me.

BUILD REALLY AWESOME!!!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Do you have any task managers on your phone? I haven't been able to test any of this stuff since my touch is not active
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Razzmon:
Just installed mxit , nothing else , was just busy testing everything and wanted to make a call , see that it resets as soon as I hangup
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i am looking into it now it just hung when i made a mock call
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bob0builder:
Hangs for me after making/receiving calls.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
so i just tried the original fresh froyo build and it doesnt seem to have the problem give me a few minutes to see if i can fix it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cnigro1279:
Loving this build so far but am having trouble with the market not showing apps....is there an enabler or script for this build? I was able to see all apps with fresh froyo.....

Still very nice...ill be watching this one...Thanks a bunch!!

[Touch CDMA Android Development] cnigro1279:
Yep....freezes on call disconect..I'm trying gps now...everything else seems good on my Kaiser....

My experience... using a test phone for this build right now, my main is running Donut 1.6

Yea, I don't have ability to make calls on that one, so can't test the calling bug

everything else seems smooth & functional though!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
hey just giving you guys an update i got to work on it a little last night i will try to get it working today, apparently .tar files like to be a little temperamental so i had a whole load of issues last night trying to fix it

edit: appears it was the services.jar causing the problem still trying to fix the problem
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
flashed last night- so far so good. seems stable and quick.

one issue- voice commands functions about 50% of the time.

keep it up

thanks
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
are you having the hang with calls?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
nothing at this time.... sorry

i seem to remember something in the earlier super froyo builds where there was call issues that were fixed by a new kernel.

the kernel i use is below, that may be something you wish to try-
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i tried that kernel and i'm still getting the hang looks like your a lucky one

but this brings me to a point here

the services.jar is the problem but i have tried everything humanly possible to fix it but i haven't had any success.

so there are 2 options

- i can release the build with the stock white theme and my theme extras the green theme stuff

- or i can release it with the black services.jar (so black on black date, carrier label, and status bar clock)

give me feedback on what you guys want again i am really sorry
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
version with the white theme is up still has the green elements in it, also put the original vending.apk back in to attempt to stop some of the market lag

i made a few mock calls and no hanging seems to be present

sorry for all the waiting guys
[Touch CDMA Android Development] CyCLoBoT:
Hey, would you be able to provide the apk file for the faux flip clock?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
ok so after some serious testing is tarted getting the call hang effect. if i had to put as statistic to it i would have to say 3 out of 5 forced a reset. downloading the new build now- will flash ASAP.

thanks for the update
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bcti:
I have not been able to get anything past v13 to run reliably. Has anyone else? what versions of files are you using in your andboot?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
have you tried rls16 yet? i dont use it as a daily but it doesnt seem to have most of the problems that rls15 did and rogue tools works again for overclocking
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bcti:
I tried 16 and while it did seem better than 15 it still seemed to be "pausing" with lots of wait/force close.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
my build zip aligns on first boot so if you let it sit for like 5 minutes then reboot you shouldnt have those issues i did get one wait for system on first boot after that i didn't get one but then again i dont really use mine for daily anymore
[Touch CDMA Android Development] bcti:
would you mind posting the andboot files I should use with 16 including default.txt. or maybe you could just post the links to the zimage, initrd, haret, ect that I should be using. thanks. also what my default text should read for vogue.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
oh sorry i didnt know you were using haret i dont know which files work best for that im on NAND
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Razzmon:
wanna know

If I may ask , what is the difference between the original froyo build 01/01/2010 and your modded build
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
mostly just extras at the moment

-astro is included from the get go

-along with removing some of the more cumbersome stuff like live wallpapers and launcher2 that just take up space in /system

- added adw launcher and the cyanogen mod pack

- and it zip aligns on first boot

other than that its just themed apps like music, desk clock, power control and stuff

i would have a black theme but i was running into some issues
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Razzmon:
Install

why does the android show , PROBLEM LOADING WIDGIT , for all widgits after install
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
its because the widgets it pulls up were all themed so it doesnt load them because the .apk was pulled from the hero, if you delete those and reload them they all work fine
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Razzmon:
ok , thanks for the help , will test it now and let you know if its running smooth
[Touch CDMA Android Development] Razzmon:
2g and 3g

Hi , one last thing , I want to disable 3g and only use 2g , but when i tick use 2g only and restart the device , its back on 3g , is there a way that I can make the device remember my setting
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
to be honest that im not sure of
[Touch CDMA Android Development] manu33xtro:
Very good...

Hi,

Thank you very much for your customization because it's work very fast :)

No crash for now and I use it with patch for Wifi for Polaris (see attachment) :rolleyes:

It use it with the latest kernel of DZO modified by l1q1d.

Tx again.

Cheers
[Touch CDMA Android Development] WnG88:
thoughtlesskyle,

How is the space limited between \system and \data? I'm running nand. I wanted to take your approach and move some applications from system to data for easy updates (gmail, brut etc.)

I've been trying the latest kernel versions and the incubus's v16, but in the end felt that the most stable on vogue is still rls 12 with kernel from 07-05-2010. Still getting the best battery life, speed etc. with that combination. I tried your Not So Super and like it, but I want to get the dark theme without a white notification bar.

I've tried search, but any combination of words I come up with are pretty much every thread. Thanks in advance.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I want the dark theme too but I am running into hang ups with it when I get a chance I'm gunna use the colorchange.jar to see if I can get the black theme working
[Touch CDMA Android Development] WnG88:
As far as the copying/moving gmail.apk to data, is it that simple, or does something else need to be modified?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
Nope just put it in the data folder
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cnigro1279:
I'd love to see the black theme get sorted out.......still loving it!!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I'm glad you guys are liking it so far
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
so guys i would like to let you know that a black theme might very well be in the works
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
i must say i like the new build, seems quick and stable- looks good-

one question i have please- i like a seriously stripped version- are there any apps reliant on the frame work to operate correctly?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=Barebones

here is a good read for stripping down a build, but none of the apps really rely on the framework
[Touch CDMA Android Development] cnigro1279:
Glad to hear about the black theme...I ran it before I learned about the phone hang problem and was thrilled with the overall look and feel. Still running rls 16.2 on my Tilt as my main phone with no real issues....
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
check your messages!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] casacristo:
really nice rom

great rom, I am using it together with kaisimg-240x320-2.6.32-froyo-28-09-10_22-testing.nbh

I have not tested the GPS yet but everything else seems to be working rather nicely.

One odd thing though...

I like to charge my kaiser with a usb cable plugged to a PC.

When plugged this way it is impossible to keep the phone powered off

If it is off it powers on.

If I choose shutdown, it shuts down only to bounce back within a minute.

Is there anyway to make it stay off?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
It has to stay on when its charging when unplugged from usb it will shut off fine
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Kyle, does this mean that you have sorted out the issues with black theme???
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I can not confirm or deny this ;)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Ok, well in that case can I also get THE message;)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
alright well i am sorry for being secretive about it, i have some people on here run through a few tests with it so that way i didn't have to post it and pull it again. The Tests on it turned out good, i did experience a few freezes here and there but not when making/ receiving calls and one of my other testers used the latest kernel on his kaiser and didnt have any issues so i am not sure but i feel its stable enough to atleast post it.

edit: and with that Check the first post!
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Great news, thanks. Trying it right now.

Just asking Kyle, should I even bother trying to update your build with black and red theme by Incubus at this point? Could it work?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
If you were going to update it install my black theme first because you need the white services.jar but his also don't have the white notification ticker but if they work on his rls 16 they will work on mine seeing as they are both built off the same fresh froyo rls
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Ok will do but before I'll do it I will test your build and maybe i will stay with your black theme because ..well i also like it:)

Few graphics glitches though.....

H icon has a white background

Also both 2G and 3G icons are too dark they look ok in the photo but on the phone they are barely visible.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i can try seeing what i can do about those, as far as i know those don't print out on the vogue (i know the H isnt in use on the vogue possibly how i missed it)
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Great, thanks.

Also I did try incubus' red and black theme and it's working fine except for two small glitches it doesn't have H icon and 2G icon seems to be not displying correctly.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
Kyle any update on that icon? Can it be fixed?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
I haven't had a chance to look at it yet I was at work till a few moments ago
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lerxst_x:
I think the 2G/3G icon gets brighter when data is being transferred. the 2 or 3 represents data up, the G represents data down.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i havent found an icon to replace it with but i am still looking, do you know off hand if you had this issue with warm eclair/ donut?
[Touch CDMA Android Development] -Arturo-:
We're talking about the H icon? It was enabled in the fresh froyo about a month ago by Kalt Kaffe if I'm not mistaken.

Kyle where did you get 3G and 2G icons then?

Also if you really won't be able to find a matching H icon maybe you could replace the current one with themed 3G icon?

How about something like that:
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i found a way around it i believe ;)

Edit: So i found a set of icons that should work the only problem is, they have a background a differnt color than the existing status bar so it looks like it is all contained in a tile i will investigate more when i get home
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
so it might have a little bit of a tile looking thing around it but your H icons now should come up as attached, the 2G and 3g will stay as they were

http://dl.dropbox.com/u/431617/androidupdate.tar

that update.tar should put that into place
[Touch CDMA Android Development] lilkrazzie:
hi kyle,

im running your 16.2 with 9-9-10 nbh. i edited to 340x428 and oc'd to 520 if that matters anything.

there seems to be a problem when i am downloading from the market. data works fine but the downloads never seem to start. it just sits there and says starting download. after awhile it'll just say download was unsuccessful. also, when im in the app menu, the scrolling seems kind of laggy. anybody else have that.

other than that, great build. not much trouble so far. the other releases my phone would just turn off by itself and i would have to hit the reset button for it to start up again.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
i would change your .nbh files so far nobody else i have seen on here is having that issue
[Touch CDMA Android Development] piperthedj:
the combination i have listed below seems to function best for me.

fairly responsive: ill give it a 7 on a 10 scale

battery life is about 18 hours of normal usage, 10 under heavy usage,

fairly stable: had to reset 2 times this week, but thats only when i was running 4 apps at the same time-

hope it helps
[Touch CDMA Android Development] duansindo:
thank you! i have a try it
[Touch CDMA Android Development] WarByte:
Hey there!

Just downloaded your build to have it handy when the time comes to reinstall I shall give it a try. Looks awesome! :)

Have you figured out odexing your apps post installation already? If not I was looking into your files to get my hands on that HTC looking widget and noticed you have a firstboot.sh, you can add Dzo's script in there. If I were you, I'd make sure all apps are zipaligned before setting up the package that way when you first boot you can replace the zipaligning process (which would be unnecessary by then) with odexing.

Good luck with everything, as part of a community I appreciate your work.
[Touch CDMA Android Development] thoughtlesskyle:
yea my biggest problem has been not being able to get my vogue to show up on adb, but yea the odex script will zip align along with odexing
