Thanks for the info. any ETA? This week? Month? No rush just like to know how far away?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Elazgar:
Doesn't this sound like the kids in the back seat sayin "are we there yet?" Repeatedly? Lol, some ppl prefer to pester instead of practice patience..
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Is the rom fixeed or will u update the OP when u do it ?

PS badass for the update about the sounds cause they are awsome
[Epic 4G Android Development] beejmeister:
David... Backoff....

If he had an ETA he would have put it out there to keep you from having to ask.

Here's the deal. When software is being "fixed" there is no ETA... because fixing it entails finding the issue... finding the issue means hunting for that which you don't even know what it is that you are looking for...

It isn't like asking someone how long it will take them to fix a flat tire... You know you have a flat tire... you can see it is flat... and you know from experience that it will take 20 minutes to change it....

However... to continue the analogy with cars... if you have a problem with the car's battery being dead every third time that you leave it parked for 3 hours it is VERY difficult to figure out what is causing it to do that... and there is NO WAY to give an ETA... Got it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Something weird to report.

Meh - figured it out

In order to not have an email notification tone you have to turn it off in two places:

1. Under notification settings in the settings menu.

2. Actually in the email account.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
look I'm not trying to start those shenanigans back 7 or 8 pages? I just curious ok, if i I'll just shut up now...
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Dude - holy cow. This guy is working on it in his spare TIME. Do us all a favor and TURN OFF YOUR COMPUTER and don't come back here till Thursday!

Please stop asking the same questions over and over.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
I understand that and I appreciate it let's please not get this crap started again ok? I'll shut up and won't post any more questions.... Let's all chill and not start this **** again it's a waste of a post and time for everyone including me, so no more questions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MILcityBoi:
Jesus, give David a break...he said he would chill out....I know there is a time when someone is over barring but he obviously sounds anxious more then anything cause he doesn't have it plastered 10 times in a row.....Wasn't it Reginald Denny that said "can't we all get along"? Or was that Rodney King??? LMAO
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
Question.... Does 3.0 have the baked lagfix in because I just got a 2020 on Quadrant with all my apps installed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Here's the update guys ...got pretty much everything working, added a few more things into it... Enjoy :)

VIPERrom [TRiNiTY] DK28 3.0
[Epic 4G Android Development] dallas90733:
BT,

Another donation is on the way SIR!!...Also Tiger Pride!! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
It did, but i removed it because of issues it was causing ...just a little side note folks... if you use the baked in lagfix, you will lose startup sounds and animations.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Thank u bro... I agree why do we have to fight... I'm not that type of guy to fight and be an inconsiderate asshole. And yes I am anxious just like I was for the emotionless beast update for 2.1 and mighty Roms for Wm? It's just exciting and I've never been bashed more for it til I started to take interest in this rom..
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
You can be anxious, write out your question on a piece of paper if you have to. Asking the same question that 9 other people have all asked within the same hour EVEN on the same page.......is annoying as fuk!

Read the thread.....then youll realize that he's working on stuff and turns it out real fast. Then you wouldn't have to ask your question!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
I understand that... All I'm saying is that people go ape for for exclusive features and they are all excited and it causes impatientness, kinda like Xmas morning waiting for ur parents to get up an open presents, saying back off and repeating that to everyone that ask is repetitive and the same isn't it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Flashing nowwww wooohooooo...quick ? after I flash the Rom I can just flash the update for sounds right ...I aint gota wipe dev/cache???
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
Were you able to figure out was was causing the a2sd script error that resulted in endless FC's?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Correct... You don't have to wipe anything, i've put it in the update-script to do that for you ...also, the sounds are included in the new download, so you don't have to flash them.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Hopefully it's just me, but now 4g turns on, however it doesn't actually move data in or out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] chris378:
I know you just answered this question but what if im using your LagFix? Will doing the update without the data wipe effect it?

Thanks in advance and Awesome Work Man Keep It Up!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
ohhh noooo lol im DL'ing now and ill report back
[Epic 4G Android Development] asapelectric:
Thanks for ur efforts! Appreciate the way you are kind and patient with everybody, and ur always making it better, thanks again. I'd donate again if I could,I'll just have to wait, sorry.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
yea BT seems like a cool ass dude thnx for everything bro im bout to flash now
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
The Power down menu shows "Unread messages" where its suppose to say something in regards to turning data on and off
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yeah you'll have to reinstall it ...so let it be the first thing you install when you boot up and you'll be good to go.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
?????? thats sounds weird im in mid flash lol so I cant comment on that

edit ...booting now
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
OMG i heard the sounds on boot and I almost creamed lol...sickest phone boot ever
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yeah, i'm working on this ...but it still allows you to turn data on and off, it just says "unread messages"
[Epic 4G Android Development] wonderhunt:
This is the best dk05 rom out, period.

It took me several hours to finally got the lagfix to work, and it's worth it. It runs quardrant, never one time lower than 1500, and if it can be put on the sdcard instead of the internal memory, it will be a perfect mod.

Thanks so much Thomas!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Muckrak3r:
3G. 4G and wi-fi have never been a problem with the Epic. When rooted with the 1-click I would get .2Mbps down and .15Mbps up (or worse). I am back to pure stock DI18 and just got 1.5Mbps down and .9Mbps up. On 3G, while driving on a freeway at 65mph.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Well I've never loaded a rom before, and although this is pretty challenging I picked your's to be my first! :P

Lets see if I can actually do it. I'm about half way there I THINK
[Epic 4G Android Development] jhpx123:
Odin

To run Odin. unplug phone from computer

Turn off phone, hold down #1 key on keyboard while turning on phone. Once little robot appears go and click on Odin, plug in your phone a com number should appear in the first box , then go ahead and add your pit/modem
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Yea I spoke too quickly, usually i google before I ask questions, had a moment of weakness :)

Rom is installing right now!

Let's hope my first time is a good one!
[Epic 4G Android Development] HipHopIsLyfe37:
What's Odin and what's a modem for the phone?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Muckrak3r:
Thats what she said.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rez0469:
I am still having issues with my phone. I used the Epic specific Odin and the stock pit and rom. It finally stopped freezing every time but now it goes through some of the phases, It says "complete(write) operation failed" after it goes through param.lfs, sbl.bin, boot.bin then recovery.bin. Anybody have any ideas? Phone won't boot up, it gets stuck on the "Samsung" screen, the only other thing it will let me do is go into download mode.
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
the stock rom file u r using where is it from (and the file name)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
anyone have a lagfix guide for newbies... there's a few key things I'm not understanding..

unless there's a windows command prompt in andriod :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rez0469:
SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL. I got it from that link in the sticky section for the stock rom. The one from rapidshare.
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
this is actually done in command prompt from the computer with ADB

download this (the DI18 file ) and theres no need for the pit file http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=794138
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
Gulp, I don't know what ADB is :)

what phrase should i google search? ADB brings up a whole bunch of junk
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
on the first page of this thread post #2, part 2 everything is there
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mohwak:
Anybody have a quick fix for the calendar not syncing??
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
There is def some instruction missing....

" Go to the market and download "busybox installer".

2. Install busybox. (Yes, i know the ROM comes with it, but the ROM doesn't have one of the files the fix needs.)

3. Type these commands into windows command prompt."

It's not as simple as that...

cuz it's not working :)

Yes I followed the steps in the 2nd post.
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
how is it not working? like r u able 2 get into the command prompt and type adb shell?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dereknjenny04:
Make sure your command prompt starts in the folder with adb.exe and libraries, or make sure that the file is in the computers path.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
How is the phone supposed to be connected to the computer?

Developer mode? through usb..... right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] LSanna1488:
After installing busybox from the market, open the app and select download to /system/bin... NOT /system/xbin, then hit install on the bottom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Just want to be sure that you don't have to wipe original 3.0 before flashing the update?
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
Yes sir. 10Char
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
hey btom, did you take the battery meter icon thing-a-majig away on purpose?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
nah you dont have to, the update script will do it for you :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalico17:
any chance of getting that black dialer you had from 2.7. all black with the white #s looked sick :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
OK 4G is fixed and everything is running slick as **** ...BUT.....where is the nav at i cant test GPS and when I goto car home and hit navigation it says no activity
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
dowload google maps from market and youll get maps , nav , etc
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilmikeyv:
Has anyone gotten to try a2sd on the new update yet? Last time I, like others have posted, fc my phone. Wasnt a problem due to the developers being smart and giving us tools like odin. Also just wondering if anyone could point me in the direction of an instructional thread on using a2sd. Thanks again BT for all your hard work...this ROM is amazing!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
*bump* Can anyone chime in on the a2sd issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
ill try that now but gps doesnt find location in google either ...whats up wit tht is there a fix
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Thanks. I just needed your reassurance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
Long press home button shows recent tasks but instead of task manager it says "Sim Services"

Progress bars blink between theme and standard colors.

TWlauncher randomly FC on apps installs
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
indeed... its not compatible
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
I'm on it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
good to know ur fixin it but This rom is better then last so Im sticking to it and yes task bars switch colors randomly ...I havent had any FC's but GPS is ****ed
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
I love the theme but rotation is very slow. Gonna keep playing around with it for a lil while.

Got the gps working by odin'in back to DI18, opening maps and obtaining a lock, then odin'in back to dk28.
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
seemed to work on the first 3.0 but you're the boss and im the rookie! good job man
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
This is like the 4th post of yours I've seen tonight that evidences your complete lack of willingness to put any effort into figuring stuff out. Whether you have working GPS on this rom has nothing to do with the rom and everything to do with your modem and what you have or haven't done with it in the past.
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
Open terminal emulator on your phone, type: su and accept superuser permissions. Then type: system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha and hit enter then follow the prompt and exit out. Toggle auto-rotate off then abck on in the system settings and POOF, perfect working rotation :).
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
Thanks will try this!
[Epic 4G Android Development] thomasskull666:
Exactly. The ROM does not touch the modem whatsoever, which means that it is completely seperate from the radio, GPS, and WiFi. Hopefully this will answer some peoples' questions.

Sent from my Xtremely Syndicated and Emotionless Epic 4G
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
everytime i open term emulator it FC's
[Epic 4G Android Development] evillawngnome:
I just discovered that the stock icon pack on OP bricks the phone. I'm going to go ahead and attempt recovery now...
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
That I can't help you with. Did you wipe everything multiple times before flashing 3.0?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Skubidu:
Holy crap, you are THE man, BT! I think you may be in the wrong line of work-your hobby is clearly your passion, my friend. Thanks for all the great kick-ass work! ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
yea I wiped 3x ........I fixed it I reinstalled it and fixed

EDit ...now if you could help me figure out the GPS fix ill be good
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yeah i think the one i had was an old one and it didn't have all the updates to it... uninstall it and download the one from the market and everything should work fine from there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
too bad that if your phone is what the word "bricked" actually means, you can't do **** about it.

if you can fix it in any way , it wasn't bricked

and i guarantee w/e happened, you can fix ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
Has anyone successfully applied the "a2sd" command through Android Terminal?
[Epic 4G Android Development] beejmeister:
LOL... and in case anyone doubts whether or not odub knows what he's talking about.... see his next post right after this one.... sounds like he likely knows what it going on!

I've long believed (the past 3 weeks) that most of the GPS problems are people sitting inside their homes or apartments expecting to get a good GPS lock.... The fact is... unless you've tried it by being outside for 10 or 15 minutes FIRST... you shouldn't be commenting on whether or not GPS works...

Folks... try to be a bit self sufficient... did GPS work for you on the Stock DK28? If so... flash back... verify that... and then reflash VIPER and see if that works to fix the problem... Try some things and contribute to this thread by HELPING SOLVE the issues rather than coming in and just coming across as bashing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JungleJiujitsu:
Would that have cause the issues with as2d in the previous 3.0 release or is it a completely different cause? And if so, has it been resolved? TIA!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
I got a strange problem the phone runs great on this rom and all just when the battery full thing pops up it says charging paused phone either too hot or too cold. Lol the phone isnt even warm tho. Any reasons for this
[Epic 4G Android Development] odub303:
Honestly, there is an attitude in this forum that people think everyone should spoon feed them answers and hold their hand through all the trial and error. This is a developers forum, which means that people need to take some initiative and learn some things before they mess with their phones. I had zero first hand familiarity with Android rooting/hacking/whatever before I bought my Epic on launch day. I took it upon myself to learn and never expected anyone to hold my hand through the rooting/flashing process. I am so ridiculously grateful for the devs that mod their phones and share the great products with the rest of us. Why do others feel they such a sense of entitlement?

/rant
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
yea well other people dont pick up on **** as easy as you do I guess dickhead ...since this guy was no help can someone tell me whats up with the GPS on the Epic and what the Direct FIX is ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yep ...you downloaded the first version ...it's been updated and will be updated again in about 2 minutes ...so give it 5 minutes, and download again and you'll have the updated version ...i'm also working on a2sd right now and will have something on that soon
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
Are there any bugs in this rom besides that one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Hope that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DAVenom:
as some 1 mentioned a couple of post back to load back to dI18 or something like that and load up the gps and get a lock. Will it still work since we have the 3.0 or do we have to load another rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
To fix gps ive heard to odin back to d118 then get a gps lock then flash k28
[Epic 4G Android Development] DAVenom:
yea thats wat i heard to but after loading up to the actual phone will it work cause we have the 3.0 and it needs the dk28 to work doesnt it???
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Ok guys ...it's been updated again ...it's back to the stock lockscreen until i work out the AOSP one... This time, all the words are in the right spot lol ...just flash this one, the update script is still the same so it will wipe everything for you so you don't have to :)

Here you go:

CLICK HERE to download the update!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Despiadado1:
BThomas22, I think that part of the problem people are having is that the first post is so cluttered with so much old info unrelated to this ROM that it is a bit mind numbing. Besides that fact, we don't necessarily need the info from previous versions given that DK28 may not have (should not) have any of those problems.

So, I guess my request is that a new post be started when you go to a new version of ROM. (i.e dk17 to dk28) At least that way we have a fighting chance of reading through the thread to determine what our problem is.

Sorry if this is out of line. I'm just hoping to help provide some clarity to what has become a serious problem for me when I'm trying to be self sufficient.
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
Perhaps change the version from 3.0 to 3.0.1 / 3.0.2 etc etc as something is updated
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
I didn't even realize there was a problem with aosp lockscreen? LoL

Are there any other known bugs besides the words being off and the new update I tried to download on my phone and it says cannot download content not supported
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
It is a browser limitation, must use another browser to download straight to your phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
wtf my phone will blow up with all that flashing
[Epic 4G Android Development] keeepinitgansta:
lol. this is what we have to deal with till an official froyo is released!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
I have the gps prob too, but im just leaving it broke I don't use it
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
Like what browser
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Open ASTRO and go to astro's settings and click "allow download from internet" or something like that... it enables downloading anything pretty much.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
So where is the odin files for dl18 ...and do I flash that from Odin then reflash odin for dk28 then reroot then flash Viper?????
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
I got it nvm
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
where you outside when you tried your gps or inside?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kalico17:
how do i remove the flames from the dialer and make it all black? lol.. sorry for multiple posts but other then that, everything runs flawless on my phone right now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Cam3ron1:
So when I load this new version thomas do I have to wipe data and Cache or just flash over the top

Thank you so much thomas ur awesome.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Just flash ...when you flash it, the update script will wipe everything for you so it's less work for you :)

The clockwork redirector is already in it ...if it's not working, i'm not sure what it is ...i even made sure it was the latest version too so it would have the least amount of bugs... but it's in there.

and i don't know about the screen thing, i always have my screen off even when charging.
