Interesting maybe you care to take a look at the framework we have for a battery mod and see if you have something different or maybe you could even share a battery mod you say doesn't drain for the rest of us. I personally Like the blue circle that would be killer
[Epic 4G Android Development] art3mis-nyc:
The fact that it's displayed more accurately is really the only reason it "seems" like it sucks more. sorta like staring at the second hand of a clock instead of the minute hand. if you wanna look for a battery killer i'd blame transisitions and the non-black backgrounds, the more the gpu has to display the higher the battery consumption, and a ditto for the colour it displays. A pure black background with no live wallpaper will consume a fair bit less than the syndicate logo background simply because there's nothing to display so the gpu turns off those pixels and saves battery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] capitaltpt:
Well after some reading, I've decided the most Universal way to test the battery of different ROMs/Kernels is to see what their batter percentage loss per hour is when just sitting idle. Syndicate ROM will be my first test of this. Flashed last night over top of 1.0.1a and charged to 100% (which immediately dropped to 98% when taking off of charger) and unplugged at 1:16am. Woke up at 8:18am and my battery percentage was at 88% According to both SwitchPro and System Info Widget. I'd say 1.5% an hour loss on average is pretty darn good :). I'm gonna flash the battery modded syndicate theme tonight and I'll let you know if there's any difference in the morning.

Edit: I guess I should also say that I'm running SetCPU at 100/1200 with no profiles and K-9mail is set to sync every 30 minutes. 3G and GPS are always on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jackal424:
so lets say I want to flash the syndicate theme (battery modded). But if that doesn't work out, how do I remove that theme? Nandroid restore or is there a easier way?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jays620:
Love the Rom, But my question is, Will it be supporting OTA on Rom manager? Think that would be nice. Considering its part of the Rom on install. Other then that keep up the good work and will be sending off some ching ching.. Need to keep you guys happy to keep us happy.. .

Thank
[Epic 4G Android Development] InfDaMarvel:
If I download this ROM, will there be a foreseeable update to Froyo without having to wipe my phone? I know you plan to bring a Froyo ROM but is it a update-able one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mis3:
I'm having a weird bug and not sure if it's rom related or just sprint. I received a voicemail this morning and got the notification. After listening to the voicemail, the notification stayed and I can't figure out how to get rid of it. I even tried wiping all data/cache/dalvik and reapplying the zip from SD card, but the notification showed up even without restoring anything.

Anyone have any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] vgambit:
I noticed a minor bug in the boot up and shutdown animations. The Syndicate Rom logo jumps down, then back up. I don't know if it's intentional, but it looks pretty bad.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MysteryEmotionz:
My theme don't don't watt anymore then no theme on the syndicate rom. If you haven't noticed I posted this numerous times. How come u can go 18 hours with or without my theme. Its just looks like the battery is draining faster cause of the 1% intervals composted to the 20% intervals that are stock.

Sent from my Emotionless Beast of an ACS Epic using the XDA App
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
This is true - Emotionless Beast isn't the cause of any battery drains. We removed the battery mod from the new version of SyndicateTheme that we've included because it would break ROM boot otherwise!

We've said in the past that battery mods appear to drain battery for some people, and that if you feel they do, don't use them. But appearances aren't everything.

It's not intentional - I actually had it fixed, but forgot to throw the new bootanimation.zip in. Oops. I'll post it later today.

You can try... but our recommended install method will undoubtedly be to wipe first.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
Do a backup in clockwork first and you will be fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
Left it off the charger all last night. Never even moved. I turned on 4g and with very light usage it is down to about 26%. Been using it lightly since around 6:30 this morning.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jackal424:
I like the rom....but kernel ain't cutting it for me in terms of battery...

With xtreme kernal I get 35% time without sleeping

And with phoenix I get 24%...significant differece in battery.

So I migh swith the kernel, will this rom work with other kernels?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
If you wish to use Phoenix, use 1.49c. It will work fine with that - but keep in mind you lose the ability to use Wired Tether, as when I last checked Phoenix does not/did not support RNDIS.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
So why is battery life not that great with this rom/kernel combo. I mean it did not even seem to move last night when it was not being charged. This morning a few downloads, a very short call, a little surfing the net and had 4G on since 6:30. Also my time without a signal % is around 50.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Your device is, as you put it before, a 'black sheep'. That's about all I can tell you - that kind of TWS is far from normal. If you're still underclocked to 800mhz, though, try reverting to 1ghz.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Been busy...but about to flash this bad puppy now....will post back results....btw k0nane or any of you guys if you could please look into getting the Verizon NFL apk working it will be much appreciated...i know you looked into it before and seen it was an app issue....I tried it out on my friends stock Epic and live vid is working.,.that is all that is broke is the Live feed....all else works no problem....I only need it for Sundays....RedZone is the best thing about that app....I would greatly appreciate it...thx again guys for the great work and dedication!!!!

I will report back my findings....sure it is gonna rock like the last version...I have been running that daily with no issues....
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
You said my device was a black sheep. I was using bakedsnack and ultimate kernel and with fairly heavy usage and in 4g mode all day and surfing the web, I got about 15 hrs of battery life. So as I can see my battery life was good with that one, but since I switched to this one, does not seem to do well.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Update

FYI I also updated this at SPJ....
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
15 hours isn't bad, but seems quite low compared to other users of that kernel, which is very undervolted.

Our testers will look more into it, though I am, as I said before, fairly sure that it's not a ROM bug. Thanks for your continued support!

Cool, thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mynewepic10:
I dont debate what you do, but it seems I have tried yours twice and getting the same results.

I too cannot get busybox to work on 1.0.2. busybox says it detects that it's installed. however when i run metemorph it says it cannot find busybox.

[Epic 4G Android Development] LordLugard:
Loving this ROM hands down, but i am having an issue where orientation sensor seems not to be working. It won't auto rotate by itself, plus when i slide out keyboard to go into landscape mode to type something and slide back, it won't go back to portrait mode, I have to push power button to turn off screen and turn on again and it goes to portrait mode.

Auto rotate not working for me. Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Vanquish46:
I know this isn't directly the roms fault, so I solider I'd this is slightly out of place. I have tried looking on google and haven't found a solution.

I recently switched over from epic experience too try something else. I tried both titanium and astro to make backups of angry birds (lol). Titanium even said it took a backup of data, but neither will restore my progress. Liking the rom so far, but would love some help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
did you install the beta froyo before this rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
You could try reinstalling it with the app - but it's odd you're having issues, as it's installed to /sbin and symlinked to /bin and /xbin.

Did you wipe before installing? If so, Odin, format your SD card, redownload the ROM, and reflash. That should kill any issues you're having.

Unfortunately Titanium Backup is known to be buggy. Indeed, this isn't anything that's gummed up, and thus can be corrected, in the ROM.

EDIT: @Mynewepic10: Xtreme Kernel has not changed since 1.0.1 has been released. If you were using that before and after switching to the Baked Snack kernel, you'll see the same results. My point was that the BS Ultimate kernel is undervolted beyond where Xtreme Kernel is (we aim to be compatible with as many users as possible), and that's the source of your increased battery life. If I recall correctly, you had 49% TWS on the BS kernel as well?
[Epic 4G Android Development] LordLugard:
Actually, i did, did not like it and removed it. Why?
[Epic 4G Android Development] LordLugard:
I did wipe before installing. Does Odin work on a Mac?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
I don't know of a Mac version, unfortunately.
[Epic 4G Android Development] LordLugard:
Well i could get hands on a PC in some time. Could you point me to this Odin thing and the steps involved? thx.

Or

If i flash back to stock DI8 (square one), will i be fine?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kgbcapthowdy:
can someone tell me if wifi tether is working for them. its not on mine, i have pre 11 and tried pre 13, the computer connects and says all is good but when i go to internet no pages will load.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jtmercutio:
I love this ROM! It has worked so awesome, with everything I needed/wanted... Except for the last 2 days... now anytime i access angry birds it works for 1-2 minutes, then freezes the phone. Also, anytime I access the XDA app, it freezes it up too. Yesterday it froze up sending a text thru handcent. Any suggestions on what to do? I am not over clocked, nothing like that. Got the Syndicate theme on here (love the battery mod!)
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
The issue is likely on your PC's end, Wireless Tether as included is tested and working.

I suggest wiping, then upgrading to 1.0.2 - the freezes are definitely not a ROM issue, but the wipe should fix it. If you wish to keep the old SyndicateTheme with battery mod, simply flash that after first boot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kgbcapthowdy:
must be b/c its working at home but not my dads....thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] acm1108:
Is this 2.2 or 2.1. I can't seem to find that here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
No I agree....I knows it not a rom issue.....just was hoping maybe your great minds on the team may have some insight....I am desperate to get it working again....lol....fantasy football needs...lol......if you guys can you can...if not no biggie....
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
2.1. There is, at the moment, only one ROM built on the DJ29 Froyo beta. We will not be releasing a Froyo ROM (key ACS users including myself currently have DK05, which may be final) until the final version has been publicly released, for stability and feature-completeness reasons.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
2.1.........................
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Look, every phone is different in some way or form, the batt and TWS will be different for each rom/kernel that you try. Your phone prolly liked the Baked Snack rom/kernel combo, and adapted to it very well. Your phone might not like Syndicate for some reason or another. Its just the way these phones work. I know on several different ROMS i've tried i remember downloading and flashing a bunch of stuff with a fully charged batt, and just a few minutes went by, and next thing i knew, my batt was blinking saying my batt was too low (?????). I dunno what was goin on but then i figured i'd prolly have to tame my batt. Perhaps you could try calibrating your batt?? And if that dont work, either dont use Syndicate anymore, or go back to Baked Snack! Your choice
[Epic 4G Android Development] acm1108:
Thank you very much.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Outstanding

I have to say with the new rom and Ebeast and Xtreme...this thing is just awesome....great work TEAM!!!!

Honsetly jusst great work from all of ya involved...I am amazed...
[Epic 4G Android Development] KitsunePaws:
Market?

I upgraded from Sai to Shuriken, wiped everything other than my /data and I can't seem to get market going. Does this upgrade require I wipe /data? I've already reinstalled the rom thinking perhaps it was just a bad download/install. Still no love. I can get the market app to open, search, everything other than to actually start downloading. Just sits at "Starting Download". Any ideas? I really hate having to wipe data...
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
I wiped all and mine is working fine....so that being said....yea I would...
[Epic 4G Android Development] KitsunePaws:

[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
You don't have to - you can try, it may fix your Market issues, but the Market is known to suck (hard). Before you wipe, try going to Applications > Manage > Filter > All > Market > Clear Data. Also clear data for Talk.

Hello, I'm not a Fan of laucherpro. How do we get back touchwiz? and how to install stock samsung widgets?
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
If you want TouchWiz, you can drop it into /system/app, or just install Fully Loaded, which includes it. A flashable zip of the Samsung widgets are in the second post, under Addons.

thats why i love these forums, it lets us play, and if we mess something up, someone always helps
[Epic 4G Android Development] juryduty:
If you are downloding directly onto your phone you will have to use a browser that isn't stock. Try dolphin hd, that will allow you to download it just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Titanium Backup is known to be somewhat buggy, especially when switching between ROMs. For best results, we always recommend starting fresh. We do apologize for any inconvenience you've encountered - I and our testers will be looking at Titanium Backup and other data-restore methods.

This will be fixed in the next version. In the meantime, a patch has been added to the downloads post.

It is included. Keep in mind that Flash Lite is based on Flash 9 (or older) and may not support some/most Flash content out there. That being said I and our testers will be looking into this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Yeah, I did the same thing. I went all the way back to DG27 using Odin, and then let the updates come thru, I installed both (DG27 & DI18), then installed clockwork mod, then flashed ROM of my choice, no probs :-) But then again, I had no probs to start. I just like to have things done properly. This is my favorite ROM so far. But then again, there's alot of great ROMs on here. Hm, decisions, decisions, lol...

EDIT:Great job on the ROM Android Creative Syndicate and team!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
I appreciate the enthusiasm and I am glad you are enjoying the ROM, but it is a group effort of all of Android Creative Syndicate, no just me :)

k0nane is the chef, so I recommend sending him a big block of the gratitude. I just worked on the kernel :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] amosher13:
the OP said this will be the case in later releases, they put it in system for theming

dolphin HD is the way to go, but i've heard you can set astro to download from browser through settings or tools, i did it once before i switched to dolphin

dude, the sticky has the full stock DI18 md5 to just odin right to DI18 ROM, kernel and radio, no need to do DG27/OTA route!
[Epic 4G Android Development] k0nane:
Schizopunk has already created a flashable pack of the Samsung widgets - thanks Schizo - so if you want 'em, just grab them here.

EDIT: 1.0.1 is coming soon! It will include:

- Superslim/Standard: live wallpaper picker

- All versions: Email app added

- All versions: LauncherPro in /data/app

- Fully Loaded: AllShare added

- Standard/Fully Loaded: Carrier IQ service disabled! (more on this at launch)

- Standard/Fully Loaded: Performance boost! Kernel updated, Linpack 13 acheivable!

- Standard/Fully Loaded: Music player's "Shop" button no longer causes FC (the bug was not unique to this ROM - but the fix is!)

- All versions: new default wallpaper!

I'm loving the speed of this rom, i can tell alot of work went into this project and it is much appreciated... cant wait to see froyo at 1.6...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Masterface7:
schizo's samsung widget pack doesn't include the buddy now widget or the daily briefing widget.

Also Does anybody know how to get all share back?

Agreed I think someone needs to stress that the DI18 update found here is directly from samsung, it is the exact thing they push over the air.

Thats probably what it is, I wouldnt waste to much time on it considering that flash lite is just a band-aid fix.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
Rom is running great so far.. But ive noticed that when usiing setcpu on conservative or any other setting the phone gets laggy after a while.. is that normal? Once i uninstalled setcpu its running fine.. kinda sucks because i cant take advantage of the 1.6 oc
[Epic 4G Android Development] Masterface7:
I vote you consider getting rid of astro and getting estrongs file explorer, with the xtreme kernel it can act as a root explorer, as well as do almost everything else.

We'll look into it.

Here's Buddies Now and AllShare. Flash like the other addons.

Hey guys, I am a total newbe at this so this question might sound stupid for many. with these new udpates coming up.....since I already have Syndicate (11/2/2010) to install the new ones or update should I perform a wipe and then install the updates or just install on top of the one I currently have??:confused:

You can install on top.

Thats a weird one for sure. I would start with a fresh wipe and install. Sounds like something did not take right. I would also try a fresh download make sure you did not get a corrupt file.
