Um, well what I d is I download the rom, then igo to settings, manage apps, and check the top box, which is allowing to install unknown apps, then go to your file app, once opened look for "viper apps" (I think that's what he calls it) , open that, then click on "htc_ime", and it will ask you if you want to install, so click yes, then do the same for the rest of them that you want to install. Easy! Hope that helps..
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Sniper! glad you showed up ...the lagfix is complete... i need your email addy so i can send it to you for testing

Oh, and the folder is "IMPact APPS"
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Hey bud, I dunno if you know this but sometimes the default browser won't let you download, it'll say,"unsupported content" or something. Get dolphin hd browser and try download..
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
just a thought, but did you remember to download the samsung usb drivers?
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
is the lagfix a zip file to flash, part of the new rom, or something you have to use adb to put on?

if its either of the first 2, i'd be happy to volunteer my guinea-pigging :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
It's actually an APK ...but for some reason one of the options aren't working, so i might have to make that a update.zip and then get the rest to work. I'm working it out now :)

EDIT: ...Nevermind ...i fixed it :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Hey BThomas22x, I sent you my email. By pm, but you can have it here too . Kgls2000@gmail.com. . Email me it asap, n I'll give it a whirl, lol.

[Epic 4G Android Development] SemiGamer:
Soundin good bro.

Question though, I have no access to a PC at the moment so I'm running the DK05 ROM with dk17 kernel and Di18 modem. Is the lagfix compatible? Im sure you havent tested it on this setup so I know you cant garantee it, but if you had to guess, would it be? lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
yeah ...i'm testing it right now to make sure there's no errors... but it's compatible with all 2.1 and 2.2 ROMs :)

EDIT: i completely overlooked your setup lol ...it's all kinds of thrown together lol ...but yeah, it should still work, it's an APK
[Epic 4G Android Development] SemiGamer:
Lmao I know dude, I'm using the best of what I can that doesn't require Odin if you take notice hahah
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Dangit ...ran into a problem ...it's gonna be a little longer ...i'm not sure what's going wrong, but i'll find out

[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Ok i'll give you guys a status update real quick.

I've made the lagfix apk. It installs on the phone. It runs as it's supposed to. It installs the lagfix, and then it restarts the phone. The problem is, when it restarts the phone, it goes into a constant bootloop. I'm trying to work this out now, so please be patient
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Camera

When I take a pic, look at it and then scroll to the next pic in the gallery I cannot use the onscreen buttons for any actions. ie flash, self portrait or taking a picture for that matter. They do work if I back out of the camera and restart. Is anyone else experiencing these symptoms?

Nope, mine works fine....viper rom 2.3

Take your time Mr. BT, I know your working on it, BTW, happy thanksgiving!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Ok ...i OFFICIALLY got it done and it is uploading as we speak :) :) :) ...to my testers... i'll be sending you a link in your xda mail (its easier). download, read the instructions, and test please :) ...give me feedback asap ...i'm going to send a bundle pack, it's going to come with the lagfix, instructions, and quadrant (just incase you don't have it) ...Happy thanksgiving and happy testing testers!! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
so, when do you think the rest of us will get it?

btw, happy holiday to you too
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
The sooner they get back to me and let me know it works, the sooner i release it :) ...i'm not gonna release something that doesn't work... i had enough of that this morning lol

EDIT: Ok ...the testers have been given the links, so hopefully they download and get back to me soon!
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:

Yes sir lol it just like did it recently I don't know what happened
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilmikeyv:
Is there an impact folder with 2.3? I see most of the apps that were in there are now part of the app drawer. If not, does anyone know where I can get a htc_ime that will work with DK17? Thanks in advance!
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
got it, loading now
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Cmon testers.... lets get some feedback lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
trying to clear some room so i can install it, says i had 308 free but guess thats not enough? says not enough room in /data
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
nah, it's a safety precaution ...you need to have atleast 400 available that way you can use 200 of it and it will still have 200 left over ...so get rid of apps... i'm making a ROM right now that's going to be BARE so that way the lagfix will work without a doubt.
[Epic 4G Android Development] littlepr:
It's a known bug with DK17 rom builds. Camera issue where features and buttons cease to work has been reported on all DK17 roms. It's a real bug. Basically back to back attempts to use any camera features, after review of picture, taken or reviewed, locks up all camera features. In order to gain function features back you have to exit camera and go back in.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SemiGamer:
Check ya PMs bro.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Sorry BThomas, I was out. So im just getting to try out the lag fix. I'll report back asap! Where are the instructions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
download the link i sent, the instructions are included
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
1575 on first quadrant run.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
ok ..so the partitioning is what did it? ...how'd you get it? ...i gotta know so i can put it in the instructions lol ...and keep running, it gets faster after that because it already read through the files it needs to read through
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Im installing now, I wanted to do a fresh install before I installed the lag fix. I'm about to install the lag fix now Mr. BT!! Just gimme a few minutes to report back.
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
I gave up on trying to clear space lol.so i reflashed the whole rom and before adding any other apps I installed it. Now I'm fighting with launchers.it keeps defaulting to tw even with home switcher set to zeam and the tw dock is blank other than apps icon

Update:i restored data again from titanium and its all good now .bit to do more benchmarks
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
BThomas22x, YOU ARE THE MAN! 1675 quadrant!! Im gonna try linpack now...

Hey BT, where is the app folder for the apps, and am i supposed to have busybox installed for this lag fix?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Ok so just re-flash the rom without installing anything, install that and it'll work? ...nice ...thanks for the heads up... i'm gonna put it up in the directions ...and do like 3 more tests and post the scores please.
[Epic 4G Android Development] abe_ahmed09:
any1 know the old tut on how to lag fix?
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
yep yep. Getting 14s again on linpack and 1875 on quadrant.all previous apps reinstalled and everything running fast

Update: just got 1940 quadrant

Another 1939
[Epic 4G Android Development] abe_ahmed09:
\acn u grab me the tut?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Alright folks ...I've had multiple testers confirm that the lagfix is working, so im going to write up the instructions and put the download in the OP ...look for it in a little bit :) :) :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] abe_ahmed09:
yayayyayaay
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
Make sure its understood that you use astro to get to it and that they have unknown sources checked to prevent a flood of questions. Just a suggestion :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] shortyboy:
auright.looking forward to the lagfix..great job!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
i get FC on TW with 2.3 :-(

also, will this lagfix work on other froyo roms?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Hey BT, The option for me to install v-2.2 is available, should I install it? Or just go with v-1.0.1???
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
WOW!!!!! 2244 in quadrant!! you rock BThomas22x!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
it won't let you install it ...the 2.2 is basically for my buddies vibrant... he's got more internal memory so that works for his, but our playlogo1 file is less than 5kb so it wont work for us... sorry
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Thanks for the response. I normally don't have those issues. Thought I had done something silly.
[Epic 4G Android Development] abe_ahmed09:
Lag fix compatible with your 2.3 rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yes. This lagfix is an APK. And it is compatible with 2.1 as well as Froyo. You can pretty much use it for any ROM you'd like.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
So lemme ask you another question then, when you get to the part where you can choose the partition size, when I ran the script, the default setting is like 197, should I choose that or should I have changed it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] abe_ahmed09:
yoiu have a GTalk?

What version of Odin do you have? You gotta have version 3..
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
i get to modem.bin in the message box of odin... then nothing, is it finished? did it fail? whats up? lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] MLHickey:
I'm using the second version of ODIN that was posted here. Odin3 v 1.00. I have the samsung drivers and I am in download mode. It's recognized on the COM port. Do i need any of the ADB/SDK stuff for this to work?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Noel2255:
I'm giving up on this, I can't get the adb to work .
[Epic 4G Android Development] kingkung:
thanks a lot for the help, it worked like a charm, about to flash rom after this reply posts! :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
nothing is happening past the modem.bin in message box of odin, unplugged, pulled bat and now have old looking phone , dot dot, exlamation in a triangle, dot dot, computer.

.. no bueno. lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] jsutin.maggiolo:
Wifi hot spot speed test has improved greatley, nearly doubled, gps locks in seconds ! ! ! Awesome !
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
no, the Odin you need is the one that noobnl made, I think it's called "Odin3epic.rar".. It's especially made for the epic. I tried to post a link but my account wont let me. FOR EVERYONE ELSE LOOKING FOR THE RIGHT ODIN, GO TO THE "WIKI" PAGE AND LOOK FOR "[How To] Return to Stock / Fix Bricked Epic". THE ODIN YOU NEED IS THERE!!!

ALSO, YOU MUST PUT "MODEM.BIN" IN THE PHONE SECTION, AND PUT THE "PIT" IN THE PIT SECTION.. IN THE LEFT SIDE, MAKE SURE THE ONLY BOXES THAT ARE CHECKED ARE "REBOOT" AND "DEBUG". VERY IMPORTANT!!! IF YOU FOLLOW WHAT IM SAYING TO THE "T", YOU SHOULDNT HAVE ANY PROBLEMS.

ALSO, THE TOP LEFT BOX, THERE IS A PROGRESS BAR THERE. THE BIG BOX SHOULD TURN BLUE, THEN GREEN, AND IT WILL SAY "PASSED" IF IT PASSED, OR "SUCCESFUL".
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
that' because you unhooked it before it was able to be unhooked... that's what that image is saying, it's saying hook me back up lol ...anyways, just hook it back up and run odin again ...it should finish ...if it seems like it freezes... give it about 5 mins, if nothing happens after that, then close out of odin, unhook the phone, open odin, hook the phone up and try again...
[Epic 4G Android Development] SwimDrewid:
Don't give up so quick.

Did you download the sdk?

Where did you unzip it to?

Does the computer recognize the phone when it's plugged in?
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
tried it again with f. reset and reboot both checked and it worked. baseband says dk05! sorry about all the trouble guys, appreciate all of your help

Here is my quadrant score, I just wanna say thnx for the bad ass rom and the lag fix.

LMFAO, I just want to add I was just posting and uploading stuff and I had forgoten that I was using the wifi hotspot on my phone instead of the wifi in my house because it was so much faster...
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
In order for your adb to work, you have to install Android SDK, and make sure you install it right on your "C" drive. Also you must have the samsung drivers installed, and working. You must have "USB Debugging" checked under settings> manage apps>usb dubugging... check that...
[Epic 4G Android Development] showmrock:
Can someone clarify what step 5 means? Does this just mean to flash the ROM or what?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
yes... just flash the rom as you would with any other rom...

any solutions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Ok for the best settings, here's what i did ...i put the scroll bar all the way to the right, because it only goes up to 200 something mb ...so i put it the whole way, then you go back into VIPERspeed and open "alter minfree" so you can set the PHONE's default task manager ...which works quite good might i add... anyways, set that to strict (it's what i use and it works good) and that'll kill your apps for you to keep space nice.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
You have to Odin the modem before you can flash the ROM. go to the OP and download the link that says "Odin, PIT, and Modem" and set up odin, and follow instructions in part 1 of post #2.

[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
I'm not really sure ...this is the first i've heard of this happening on 2.3 ...maybe the download was corrupted? try re-downloading the ROM and try again?

Try re-flashing the DK17 modem. That happened to me also, but I just went to airplane mode and unchecked it and that worked for me...

I think theres one up in the ACS thread. Sorry.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Actually I just re-posted the link and it works :) ...my bad everyone that tried and couldn't do it... it works now though
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
This is what I do with every ROM install. I select dada/factory reset 4 to 5 times, in clockworkmod, then clear cache 3 times, then factory reset once more, then go to advanced, and clear dalvik, once. Flash your ROM, let it boot all the way, to where the media scanner stops running. Then turn phone off, boot into cwm, factory reset 3 more times, and cache twice. Then re-flash the ROM, let it boot all the way. Then re-boot, and you should be good to go.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
My bad big BT. I got another question for you. Could you try to explain to me how this lag fix works? Im sure it doesnt create a loop affect, so Im curious as to how this one is so much better?????
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
ok, well with the last one, it was writing a loop over the RFS, and this one actually replaces the RFS and puts the original in a backup. Then it seperates all the files and links them together so it's easier to look through when it's doing the test. It speeds the phone up quite nicely i think.

[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Awesome... glad to hear it ..but besides quadrant ...is your phone quicker at responding now?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Yes he is... I just ran thru SDX stock app remover and removed a bunch of crap that, IMO, doesnt need to be there, like the "DrmUA.apk, Dun.apk, SisoDrmProvider" and a few others that I dont like. These 3 run some kinda "OMGprovider" (something like that) service (in running services) that drains the batt, so I always delete these 3. It doesnt harm the system in anyway that I know of, and if im wrong, please correct me. Perhaps BT, in future releases, you could work this into your ROMS..

[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
You can kill those services, the only thing is you gotta kill'em at every boot...

Not on the epic its not ...i mean since the froyo beta's dropped, getting 11 mflops is kinda normal but about 900 to 1000 is pretty much the basic quadrant... my lagfix is what makes it 1800+
