Are you saying I should use mybackuppro in order to install the syndicatezip for a fresh install?

If so I was not aware you could do that with another app and thanks for the heads up....

If not.....Im only talking about installing the clean rom....from a fresh wipe...and I am getting the error when i place the phone in plane mode without putting any apps on it from the fresh install.

Im sorry if Ive confused the issue. I am literally installing the rom and getting the error using plane mode before I put any data onto the phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Xhyperion:
why does google navigation randomly force close all the time. I love this rom but I use google nav daily. I switched back (from EE) to see if the force close problem was fixed. I dont like restarting google navigation while im driving. Its dangerous.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
ahhh...ok I thought you were getting the error after data install...sorry i was confused...lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] suspect32:
anyway to get the stock android look using this rom? (like the nexus one)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
I agree and I do not like hearing you would do that. Can you do me a favor and try uninstalling reinstalling it or making sure at least that you have the latest version? It has been updated in the recent weeks. If you find no relief that way. PM me please
[Epic 4G Android Development] skippytdi:
apk locations?

This ROM is awesome. i feel bad for all those idiots that bought evo's.

Can "factory" apk's be removed on the newest version of this. Not really a fan of adobe reader, thinkfree is much faster. Nor am i in any need of home switcher or the two home apps that i don't use. Been looking under sys/apps but can't find any sign of any of these programs. Any help is obliged.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] imdjenk:
Love your rom guys, great work! I'm running the slim version in conjunction with the Phoenix kernel and my phone is quick, stable, and the battery life is finally acceptable.

I am having an issue sending emails. With the stock email app I get a force close when I try to email with attachments, and with the gmail app it appears that my emails with attachments are as sent but they never get delivered. Known bug or any ideas?

Just wondering if with the next release you can include a circle battery icon? Ive been able to download a seporate one but it erases all the icons and im just trying to find a circle battery icon. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
I can make one custom for you, which battery icons did you want or do you have a preference?

Sent from my Xtremely Syndicated and Emotionless Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Android Development] thegameksk:
That would be awesome. Just want to say really good job with the custom icons. I love them all except for the battery since its not a circle. I really love the GPS icons. If you could make something similar to version B from this thread http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=793805&highlight=battery id be so thankful.

Also I installed this not realizing it would erase all of the custom icons. So im assuming to get back the custom icons I would have to re-flash the syndicate rom. Is this correct? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
If you flashed the just battery % mod zip, then yes just flash the SyndicateROM again to restore your icons, no need to wipe or anything. I should have this ready for you shortly and I'll pm you a link when I'm finished!

Edit: I forgot to ask, what version of the ROM are you using, standard, fully loaded or superslim?
[Epic 4G Android Development] thegameksk:
I am using fully loaded. Thanks again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
Flashed my phone with the "Standard" package rom. Did the wipe of system, data, both caches prior to the ROM being loaded via clockwork. Rom loads and works perfectly fine so far, but the wireless seems to have issues maintaining or even connecting to wireless networks in range.

This has happened both with a restore of data, and without a restore of data via clockwork. The networks are detected, but the phone seems to connect then drop a few seconds later or if I'm lucky stay connected for a minute or so. Other times it will try to connect and then just fail out unsuccessfully. The network and passcode shouldn't be an issue as the phone was connecting fine with stock rom w/ just a root. The router is literally on the other side of the wall and it just drops out for no reason.

Any ideas or suggestions? I'm really liking the rom but would hate to have to re-image back to stock or another ROM just because the wifi isn't going.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thegameksk:
I have a couple of questions.

1) What kind of settings do you use for setcpu? What do you have it max at and what is scaling set to? Ive also noticed my setcpu doesnt set on boot even though I have that option checked. I have to manually open the program myself and ser ir up from scratch.

2) I am having battery issues. I just installed the rom 2 days ago. I installed it and charged my battery to 100%. Then I erased battery stats through clock work and I had great battery. My battery lasted about 20 hours. I ran the battery until my phone shut off. I turned it on and recharged it to 100% again. This should have completed the calibration process. Its been off the charger for 3 hours and already the battery indicator is down to 80%. I saw the biggest drop from 100% to 92%. In 30 minutes it dropped that fast. I've only used the phone to send some texts, background data is off, and power saving mode is on. I also have brightness at its lowest possible setting. I also use battery indicator.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

Automatically mounts SD card

Every time I plug in the usb cord my phone automatically defaults to usb storage mode. Is it supposed to do this? If so can I turn it off?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ogrillion:
I didn't see anyone complaining of this, so I hope it was just a bad flash or something?

But anyways I rooted and flashed SyndicateRom on Wed. I had the phone all the charger all day, and I didn't really use it to hard all day. Thursday night the phone was in my pocket I had about 30% battery left, I took it out to check a webpage and I noticed the back of the phone was not real hot, but a little warmer then I have felt it before (got the phone on Monday, ran stock till Wed night).

Anyway very rapidly the phone went from 30% battery to dieing within about an hour, and all I did was pull up 2 webpages and a text message.

Now when I first flashed the rom I formatted it all like said but I didn't do the partition. So I reformatted it all and did the partition, then I reflashed.

So far no heat issues, but I just want to check and make sure it was a fluke thing and not so much a hardware issue?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] zulubushi:
This is looking like its going to be my first android flash. 2 questions before I make the leap:

1. Does wired tethering work out the box with mac snow leopard?

2. Can someone confirm that when tethering, either wired or wirelessly, and connected to 4G, if a voice call comes through does it drop the 4G connection and pause the tethered data connection. Or does this ROM actually allow simultaneous voice and data over 4G?

Thanks for any insights you're able to provide.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fastmikey1969:
I was able to talk and use 4g data the other day.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zulubushi:
Awesome! Thanks. For some reason I can't do both on my stock Epic and Sprint is saying that this is not a known issue. :(

One down, one to go. So, anyone have an answer to #1 about wired Mac tethering?
[Epic 4G Android Development] boostedmr2:
Hey guys I have been breaking my head over this and have searched all over the internet for fixes and tweaks but I am coming up with nothing. My problem is my battery life is horrible and drains faster then my f350 sucks gas. f I hve tried all kinds of roms and kernals with the same effect. Example. Right now I am running syndicate 1.0.2 with xtreme 1.2 and I have calibrated they battery correctly. The phone was c,hanging and said it was full I unplugged it at 11:15 and right now as I type this I am already down to 88 percent. I have all unnecessary tasks and apps closed. Gps 4g off. I have wiped many times and every restored phone back to factory so I could start all over. Please if you have any ideas that I could try that would be great. Or do you think the phone is defective and should be changed out? Thank you guys for any and all. Help
[Epic 4G Android Development] rjmjr69:
What's the phone say about your battery? Have you considered you might have a bad battery right from the gate? Its happend to me. Good phone crap battery both from the same package. Your symptoms sound like a much bigger problem than a rom. I would try a new battery see what happens. Good luck
[Epic 4G Android Development] boostedmr2:
Battery status says good. So you think I can trust it what apps can I test it with? I think mini info told me good or spare parts can remember whicb
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
For me it seems to be day dependant, One day I can get 20 hrs and another 8 or 9 hrs. Seems to be hit or miss. Switched to ee and phoenix 1.43 and batt seems to be mixed as well but better than with xtreme kernal. Using set cpu 800 / 100.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bnguyen1983:
Amazing. Phone has been on 14 hours today with moderate texting, browsing, and pandora use and its at 22%. When I was doing this with stock my phone would be dead at 4 to 5 hours.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ylwsub68:
I'm having some battery issues (again, not present until I installed this rom). After I have the phone on for 24 hours or so, I plug it in to charge it, and a message says "battery is not connected" with a flashing red empty battery. The battery status says "discharging." I try rebooting, at which point the battery is at say 63%. Once the phone boots up, the battery is at 28%.

Umm... help?

This is a great ROM...All I wish is that it still had Media Hub still on it..I haven't noticed a difference in battery life either

Went to sleep at 2 am with the phone saying 90 percent woke up at 8am with 43 percent. 6 hours idle half my battery gone?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
To those having battery life issues: this ROM includes Xtreme Kernel. Thus, you must -- must -- calibrate your battery when coming from another kernel. This will solve your battery life issues.

Does this ROM have media hub?

You can download media hub on any rom its in the market

Give Xtreme Kernel 1.2.0 a try, if you haven't already.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
So with all the leaked Froyo Beta Roms out there, I take it that the ACS team has no further plans to update this current rom? I'm not complaining as I am enjoying this rom. I just don't feel comfortable messing with a Beta Rom for one. For two, I still don't quite understand Odin and how that whole process works with the modem. With those two obstacles in my way, it would be nice to be able to flash a newer improved version of this rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ylwsub68:
It started doing that when I upgraded the kernel to 1.2.0.

I've seen a lot of posts saying to calibrate your battery...How do I do this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] iwantAdollar:
I installed this rom, I then went to settings>about phone and my kernal version says 2.6.29. Why isn't it showing the kernal that the rom includes?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zulubushi:
Ok, so I installed this ROM which is labelled as having wifi and usb tethering working out of the box. On Windows, I haven't tested yet, but USB tethering DOES NOT work on Snow Leopard. FYI.

I can confirm that my 4G connection is no longer dropping when I receive or send calls.

So, a couple of my problems are solved. This is also a great ROM....my device seems to be a little snappier. When I reinstalled all of my apps, they installed much faster than before. Thank you Syndicate folk!

Create a shortcut on a launcher page by long pressing on the screen, then clickthrough as follows:

Shortcuts->Activities->Settings->USB Settings

Then, click the shortcut... You will get a dialog that allows you to change the default behavior when USB is plugged in.

Strange issue - I'm unable to flash themes, when I attempt to flash a theme, tried matted envy, elegant steel, emotionless beast and baked snack I get an error and a (bad) message. Kernels flash fine seems to be isolated to themes

I'd really appreciate any help, since I abhor how the UI looks unthemed
[Epic 4G Android Development] tmspyder:
5th day trying out the Rom/Kernel combo.

I am impressed.

This will be my everyday Rom at least until Froyo goes live.

I've found no problems to speak of and have pretty stellar battery life given my heavy use..

Average 15-16hrs when i used to get 4-6 tops on stock.

Only thing id love to see... and I know this is not possible atm , is tv out function...

that would make this the perfect phone lol

I would add the banner in sig but , alas I'm still under "noobie" restrictions
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
Good battery for now, but it will decrease soon, give it a few days.
[Epic 4G Android Development] superradrudeboy:
that did the trick. Thanks dude.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dwallersv:
Not my experience.

I have great battery life with this ROM, since the day it was released.

I'd guess something you installed, or a configuration/settings change, has gone bad on you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] IcOpRo:
I have not experienced bad battery life with this ROM, and I have not noticed a decreased battery life either.

Im running set cpu 1000/200 on conservative, no set profiles, I find that my phone locks up and acts really weird when I have setcpu profiles enable. I will try this for a bit more and then Im going to try out OC at 1300/200 se how it impacts my battery life.

I also charge my batteries with a wall charger that i got with x2 1500mah batteries from Ebay. From my experience dealing with the EVO, charging batteries with a wall charger is the way to go. Before I got the charger I was only getting up to 10hrs of battery life (they do make a difference)

Thanks Syndicate keep up the good work.

P.S has anyone noticed that after a while with the phone for some reason when i open setcpu I have to do the whole "Device Selection" again its like it wont stick.
[Epic 4G Android Development] apfrost:
Battery is the best for me on this ROM. I use this ROM along with phoenix kernel, but haven't tried the newest xtreme kernel yet. I like my current setup as is for now.

I have facebook, twitter, weather & news widgets updating every 3 hours. I also use AutoKiller Memory Optimizer set to aggressive (I never end task on anything) and CacheMate set to auto-clear cache ever 12h.

How i do it is i navigate to that that scaling_max_freq file in root explorer, then long hold on it and go down to open in text editor, then it simply shows "100000" i think it is and i change it to "120000" then tell it to save changes and then my phone will scale from 200mhz to 1.2ghz without the use of any of those buggy oc programs :)

hey guys,

Since this rom comes w/ xtreme kernel 1.0.1 instead of 1.2.0, should we not upgrade to 1.2.0 - lucy?
[Epic 4G Android Development] 063_XOBX:
Is there any way to do it without a pc besides Rom manager? I cracked the lcd on my laptop so I'm computerless for a while and Rom manager just seems to not actually do anything

[Epic 4G Android Development] derrickmd18:
not trying to sound stupid but to install this ROm do I install the one click root file then just save this to SD card and go into recovery and install from recovery menu? or is there more? was looking and don't see in the first page on how to install it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] m5james:
I started w/ the same version as you have now...ROM and Xtreme Kernal 1.0.1 that is part of the initial download. It was a great ROM until I upgraded to Lucy, then I started getting terrible battery life. I then installed the Lucy version w/o Voodoo an things didn't get any better. Now mind you that we discussed this back and forth on the Moment forums, but people always said for the sake of anomolous between switch from ROM to ROM, Kernal to Kernal, even w/ the same dev that it's always best to flash to stock and start from scratch. I'm guessing that happens to be the case for me since I only upgraded instead of wiping the phone during each Kernal. Now that I flashed back to stock, then went w/ the original version of this ROM/Kernal package from the 1st link on this thread, I've been back to having great battery life, I'm completely stable at 1.2 (never really had problems at 1.3 either though) and I don't see what the difference is between the original and Lucy version anyways.

The only reason why I was doing this ROM/Kernal was to see how different it was than Andromeda (I definately like this one better) and something to do until 2.2 finally comes out. If I were you, just stick w/ the original version on the 1st page, don't upgrade to Lucy and just stick it out until Froyo comes out.

I'm coming from a Samsung moment rooted user that's why I ask. Never put a rom in epic so looking
[Epic 4G Android Development] mylasthope:
Hmm, not sure what I should do. I recently flashed Lucy on my cousin's phone (I made sure to wipe dalvik-cache and cache 3x each), and recalibrated the battery last night(used Cyanogen's instructrions). He's been complaining about poor battery life, so I'm considering going back to the old kernel, but he's really against setting up his phone again. Should I just keep his phone the way it is and hope the battery normalizes or should I wipe everything and reflash the rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbuggydroid:
ok i decided to come back to this rom because i just love it. first time i used it i went with the fully loaded version but now i want to try to standard or even slim version. if i recall correctly those two roms did not have thinkfree office. i know i can get it from the market but the free version doesn't allow editing like the full version/one that comes with stock. any ideas on how i can get that back into those roms? thanks

p.s. may have asked this before but found out quickly that if you don't stay on top of this thread your posts can get buried very quickly lol

edit

nevermind i figured it out. just used root explorer to copy the app from the fully loaded to my sd card and installed it once i flashed superslim.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikuni_03:
My first rom flash and it's a good one. Syndicate then I flashed Emotionless Beast. Awesome..
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikuni_03:
I too have found this issue. Otherwise I have tried everything I can think of and nothing breaks this rom.

EDIT: Created a folder named ringtones inside the audio folder, which is inside the media folder on the SD card. Added MP3's that I wanted as ringtones there. They were then selectable through the Phone Ringtone option.
[Epic 4G Android Development] m5james:
Honestly, resetting up my desktop isn't that hard...using AppMonster to backup my apps LauncherPro to backup my desktop layout, and then flashing. After I'm done flashing, Google will automatically resync my contacts the first time I log onto the Market, Gtasks will restore my to-do list, download AppMonster again to restore all my apps and then lastly LauncherPro putting everything back on my desktop, it all goes quite quickly. I'm staying w/ what I have no until Froyo comes out.

[Epic 4G Android Development] tmspyder:
Truly I'm still waiting to see the bottom fall out.....

Hasn't yet.Betting with prudent use and management it wont.

I did not update to the new extreme kernel.. just left it as is and added Emotionless beast theme.

Have set cpu just doing its thing .. no OC or anything.

No app killers but I do check the stock task manager and try to back out of apps correctly.

Still have stellar battery life day 10.
