After that, if all is done correctly, you should have your own boot animation.

I tried that but no luck. found another method but no luck with that either. any ideas?

I've gotten a couple of forced closed after using the phone or sending a text message. I think i'm going to try to wipe and flash again... Excuse me, I mean wipe 3x and flash again :)

Any way to make the stransparent bar 100 percent transparent? Like on this rom? http ://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=793471 The current one doesn't fit with the Rom as the Rom looks clean and the transparent bar looks more themed. Not telling you how to do your Rom as I do love it. Just suggesting.

So BT,

was just in sprint community forums and this info might have already been posted and apologize if it has been yet they discussed the gps on froyo...one mentioned that when trying to achieve a gps lock to use 3G then to swithch to wifi or 4G...I have always tried while on 4G or wifi but just tried it on 3g and it locked in 6 secs accurate up to 3m...:D

[Epic 4G Android Development] ipaq3115:
Does DK17 mean it's based on the DK17 ROM? Not just the Kernel?

Maybe a Changelog for 2.2 would clear it up :D

I know this has been said before but I must parrot this in. Even on the Evo forum there isn't a Dev as forthcoming and helpful as you have been. Always prompt with responses and working hard for others benefits.

I don't know if anyone has donated to you, but as I said before This Friday I will as you going above and beyond is greatly appreciated.

i flashed straight to 2.2 where is the apps folder on sdcard?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rez0469:
You were outside when you tried this or inside? I can't get it to do it at all. I have tried putting it in 4g then turning it off and waiting while my weatherbug loads, then switching to wifi for a bit then switching back to 3g.
[Epic 4G Android Development] heathmcabee:
I just installed the 2.2 with DK17 kernel and my Quadrant scores took a hard hit. Getting sub-par 1k scores for some reason. Was the good quadrant scores related to the lag fix that I implemented before?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rez0469:
Certain people were claiming that the lagfix just tricked the Quadrant program and it made false scores so he took it down. He has a new one coming soon that shows very high scores on the Quadrant but it doesn't even trick the program supposedly. I don't know much about it, he had it a few pages back.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Look for the folder "IMPact APPS"

VIPERrom [IMPact] DK17 2.2
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
I'm not sure... even on 2.1 roms it worked like odin... only when it wanted to.. test it out and post results :)

VIPERrom [IMPact] DK17 2.2
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Very true... instead of writing over the rfs, this one creates a new one (backing up the old one incase you uninstall of course), and with only 200 mb being used rather than 300, I still achieve 4-500 more... and the best part... even with this installed, you can still download apps because it stores them in the new rfs data :) ...4 day weekend for me this weekend, so look for it :)

VIPERrom [IMPact] DK17 2.2
[Epic 4G Android Development] heathmcabee:
Very cool. I look forward to trying it out. GPS is working awesome, haven't had any FC's yet and everything seems snappier on the 2.2, so I'm not really concerned about Quadrant too much. Just liked seeing the scores that high.
[Epic 4G Android Development] guruleenyc:
Makes sense, thanks for the update.

The 3 beta 2.2s I've tried all had this issue.. urs just seems 2 occur less? Main reason I've been using the stock 2.2 leak lol. I love this rom tho. Suckin it up for now [][]
[Epic 4G Android Development] bwilde83:
Bthomas,

Awesome job so far. I am enjoying 2.2. One quick suggestion...I noticed that your rom doesn't include the fix for the camera button not waking up the screen. I flashed the .zip that mammon88 (iirc) posted and it works really well with your new rom. Just a thought. Anyway, thanks for your effort!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ipaq3115:
+1 did the same thing. Would be cool to work it into the next update :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rez0469:
my gps started working out of nowhere. That would have been convenient if it decided to work when I got lost in St Paul today lol

Also, I noticed that when I have the screen on then push the power button to turn the screen off. Then I wait any amount of time and push the power button again it doesn't make me slide to unlock it. It is already unlocked.

You got lost in St. Paul? NO WAI!!! I can't go over there for fear of never making it home...and I ride the bus...

If someone could post this for me that'd be great ...i can't find it

Also update is uploading ...it's the same as 2.2 but it's the DK17 firmware.

No changelog will be up, it's just changing from DK05 to DK17.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blastboi:
do we need to wipe for this and will a back up work for this? sorry if this has been answered
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
yeah you'll need to wipe, and i don't think a backup would work cuz there's a little bit different framework... sorry ....i'd move all your apps to sdcard first
[Epic 4G Android Development] blastboi:
thanks

thanks

Hey BThomas22x,

When I was in my cmd window, I was at

mkdir /data/data1 ( and the next line that came up was )

mkdir failed for /data/data1, file exists

is this supposed to say this? or did i do something wrong? when I installed busybox, I installed it in system/bin, and not system/xbin...

any help would be greatly appreciated :-)

When I go to window in eclipse I don't see the option " android sdk and avd manager"
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
you gotta have SDK installed on your "C" drive for adb to work.. then start a command window and copy it to your tools folder, that will save you ALOT of typing, lol... I do know theres a TuT on installing Android SDK, so i'll have to find it and post a link..
[Epic 4G Android Development] kingkung:
when i add try to add the modem and pit file, odin looks for a .ops file, so i changed the name of the file from .pit to .ops(not sure if this is correct). and when i click to add modem file, it can't find the bin file. but its not looking for a bin file, its looking for a .tar and .md5. Im running windows XP if that matters. any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Noel2255:
Yes I need a tut. I'm so lost right now O_o
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
same here on win7
[Epic 4G Android Development] SwimDrewid:
You don't need to install eclipse to install the sdk.

Google android sdk. After unzipping to a directory of your choosing, open a command prompt and cd to the sdk directory/tools.

Make sure your phone is plugged into a usb port your computer recognizes (i have one port where the computer does not recognize the phone) and type adb devices into the command prompt.

From there, you can type:

adb shell

su

And then follow OP's instrux.

To OP - I'm liking eclipse helios these days, just got to allocate more memory than what's configured in the ini.

OT - what's the downside for not odining the modem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
the only downside is that you're still using the orig modem. There's no real need for the new modem, as you can just download the ROM and flash that without the modem. It's just a bonus feature should you want to do it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
i've changed the download link in the op to a different version of odin... here's the link http://www.multiupload.com/DLS7TWUVPY ...download this one and it will say "pit" and "phone" ..thats where you put the pit and modem. Also, make sure reboot is the only thing checked on the panel to the left.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Noel2255:
What do you mean cd to the sdk/directory tools
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
it means type this into command prompt...

cd C:/sdk/tools

then hit enter
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Already done, worked beautifully!!! And conGRATS on such a great ROM, I freakin love this ROM! It's by far, the best DK05 ROM i've tried thus far!!!:D:cool:

Sent From My Epic [IMPact]
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
If you open a command prompt window in the tools folder, you can just type " adb shell " and then "su"... it makes it much easier

Wherever you saved the android sdk. I don't like cluttering up the c drive (when I use windows). So, I saved it to c:/android/sdk (to not get it muddled with the flex and air sdks that like to live on the root c drive, too)

So, cd /sdk/tools

Or cd /android/sdk/tools

Or til someone is able to make the modem clockwork flashable! Haha
[Epic 4G Android Development] heathmcabee:
I've been using the new modem DK17 for about 24 hours now and its been working great with 2.2. Only thing I have noticed is that battery life has been considerably affected for some reason. Not sure why, but not such a big deal to me considering I have 4 backups that stay charged in rotation for flashing and traveling. Look forward to the new ROM and lag fix.

I didn't Odin modem in yet. I flashed rom and titanium my apps that I could forward. I think this Dev is a genius! I love it!

Now only two questions I tried a search on thread and didn't see an answer to them.

1. What exactly does adding the modem do? It won't be a problem to put in since I have experience with Odin cuz of having to factory reset a couple of times already. I already have it downloaded just didn't get it done before I left the computer to get over to my gf's house.

2. Is there a way to reload Sprint tv & sprint nav? I know a lot of others don't like the "bloatware" but I'm just weird cuz I do :-P My titanium back up has the data but won't put in the apps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
In order to run the update I'm loading (DK17) you need the modem... that's the biggy with this update...
