OK. That error is different. I'll let BT weigh in on this (or one of you other guys/gals that are smarter than I am on this) but my understanding is that some of the Apps in the Market require that prior to downloading that the Market verify the operating system of the phone as an "official" ROM... since we are on a BETA ROM with these FROYO ROMs the verification fails and the message that the App can't be found is sent.

I believe that the term that is used to refer to these apps is "protected apps" and according to the Quantum thread... Dameon has figured out how to allow them to be shown....

This is where you weigh in BT: :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] beejmeister:
You can get your MSL from Sprint Customer Service. Dial *2 and ask the rep that you get on the phone for it.... It is a 6 digit number that allows you to control dangerous areas of your phone so be careful with it.

If the Rep you get refuses.... say OK... and call back and ask the next one. They will typically just give it to you.

I think there are some ADB ways of getting it but I think the easiest for you, given that you are new to this stuff is to just call them.

Cheers!

Can't wait. To bad I have to wait till I get home. Lol this ROM is the BEST!! Only rom with daily updates lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cjobanion:
BT - I just wanted to say that I have flashed your current (2.6) rom and, once again, I am amazed! Everything is as smooth as silk.

I have flashed every rom/update you have put out since the first 2.1 days and I have never had an issue that could be linked to the rom itself. I have, however, wiped everything three times before flashing a new one and I have rebooted between every .apk/.zip add-on. I know that some people might say that all of that is over-kill but whether it is or not, I have had absolutley no problems by doing this. - - Did this make a difference? Eh, who knows. This is just

my experience

.

I have said before that I am obviously one of the lucky Epic owners who got a phone with no "quirks", so that could be a major difference as well. With that being said, I just wanted you to know that 98% of the issues that I have read about occuring with "your roms" are in fact NOT due to your roms specifically. They are individual phone/hardware related.

P.S.

Gps locked on first boot-up within 10 seconds with a 4 (yes, four) meter radius while I was inside my house! I have tested it around town today and it has not dropped out or stuttered and has never been higher than a 20m radius. Again - this is MY experience, but a testament to this issue NOT being directly related to your rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] beejmeister:
LOL.... Couldn't you have just said that your computer was slow and that you were at 60% or something so I wasn't sitting here anxiously waiting for you to upload it??!! Now and then a little white lie is better than the truth... especially when you are dealing with a bunch of ROM addicted bit heads.

JK.... Will download when you are ready...

Cheers!

Thanks for the Dev. Love the ROM. And I am looking forward to the 2.7, any chance you got the GPS working?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bighuta:
is this why i'm getting 1077 for my quadrant score instead of 2430?
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
Looks like I'll be skipping 2.6 hehehe lol. Baked lagfix is in this one again right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bighuta:
oh and as to the MobileAP, is that under Wireless Settings or with the Sprint Mobile Hotspot app?
[Epic 4G Android Development] PlackSlayer:
BT did mention that the lagfix was back.

--PS
[Epic 4G Android Development] CO pitbull:
Any idea where I can get the instructions for removing the LAG fix if needed? Its my understanding this is a file system change.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cjobanion:
Same for me. Quadrant seems to be just for "visual pleasure" with the lagfix installed, but the lagfix has definitely sped up other operations of the phone.

I haven't heard anything negative about "Linpack" and I have been getting between 13-14.5 mflops with it. I just did a benchmark with the 2.6 rom update and got a 15.04.
[Epic 4G Android Development] raiderep:
Any chance you could throw up a zip with mobileAP only? I'm sure your rom is nice but I prefer stock and need mobileAP again. I might be able to strip it out myself by comparing it to the old eclair one but not sure if you had to change it up to get it to work.

If you used the add-on, you can reopen the app and use the options to restore boot animations, etc. from there and then go to Menu<setting<applications<Manage Applications<Third party< - and remove the app from there.

Hope this helps.

[Epic 4G Android Development] ficjay:
Hey BT,

I was holding tight on 2.4v2 until you got done so I wouldnt have to reload apps but after my phone started freaking out and putting in duplicate app and FCing everything I just installed 2.5 that was already to go in my downloads. Then I decided might as well put in 2.6 and not redo app again. However, now that I have finished putting in all my passwords etc, I noticed there is is 2.7 uploading!

My first question is: I'm definitely gonna install cuz I really need the Mobile AP but if I CW my data back on is that gonna be okay or are the ROMs too different?

Second question: I have Think Office saved in Titanium but it doesn't install like Sprint's Nav/TV didnt. You already gave my the zips for those which worked on 2.4, 2.5, & 2.6. Is there a way to get it on too?

Otherwise in case I have not said it recently, I think you're an absolute genius with the ROM!
[Epic 4G Android Development] agamemnon5150:
ok I loaded the ROM with no problem, wiped cache and did a data wipe 3X a peice. But The lagfix isnt working for me. I can install the EXT2 tools, but when i hit the VIPERspeed V2.2+ it doesnt work. It says "VIPERspeed V2.2+ failed with error: Could not mount /dev/block/mmcblk0p2 onto/dbdata/rfsdata: mount : No such file directory"

any clue why its not working?

[Epic 4G Android Development] grumpySasquatch:
hell yeah good looks BT, flashing now. Is Lagfix baked into this one? i dont want to install it on top if it is.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
If all else fails, you don't need the new modem to run the lagfix as the files needed for it don't use the modem. All you need is sdk.

[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
SASHA, I dont like odin. I thought early this morning that I had permanently bricked my phone. Trying to flash modem first time, The phone just turned off.

would not boot, until i removed the battery.

It essential wipe my phone COMPLETELY. On 2 different computers I tried

Odin to flash back to stock di18 like 15 times. My phone was bricked for over an hour.

Eventually odin stopped freezing and allowed me to flash back to stop.

I was worried ****less my brand new device was toast.

And then today what I do, I tried to flash modem again like a dummy lol

but this time it passed with flying colors.

So NOW TRY TO FLASH BACK TO STOCK ROM.

trying to flash a modem at this point is absolute, useless

Thankyou sir, its a tricky one to port over. I've been trying but there is so much to it I got lost. Very glad you got it working and looking forward to testing it out. I can live with the settings quirks and maybe even help figure out the issues with it. Quick question though, did you by chance use the modded captivate settings.apk? I found one that has TV out in it and noticed you have TV atleast showing in settings but not working yet.

[Epic 4G Android Development] mis3:
Quick question for those running this rom: Did Froyo fix the problem about using microphone while bluetooth is connected? On 2.1, after using my bluetooth headset for a call, the microphone does not work for camcorder, vlingo, voice search, etc. until I either re-boot the phone, or turn off bluetooth then either make a call or use voice dialer (took a lot of trial and error to find these ways to reset). I don't need to use voice commands through bluetooth, just want to have a working microphone for non-phone operations

I'm sure someone will tell me to install the rom and find out for myself, but to be honest, I'm still new to this and rely on my phone daily for work, so I don't want to flash the new modem unless I know this works now. Hopefully, someone with this rom and a bluetooth headset can give it a try and let me know if it works.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Its up to you... the baked in one does help speed the phone up, but tricks quadrant. My apk replaces the current rfs and backs up the old one. Mine gets lower quadrant scores by like 200, but its more realistic.

Sent from my VIPERrom [TRiNiTY] DK17 2.7
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
You don't need to with this rom, however if you want it, you have to make sure you restore the boot animation in the actual apk or it will tell you there's a lagfix installed already.

As I said, mine speeds it up too, but is about 200 lower in quadrant. Its also more realistic. Hope that helps :)

I guess I'm looking for guidance...what do you recommend for best performance? I used titanium backup to move most of my apps to sd and backed up to remember the sd card install so I can stand to lose some of the internal memory, but do you really think your lagfix apk is more "real" and thus really faster? Just looking for a clear answer on this.

Looking forward to your response and thanks for all the hard work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
I believe it is faster... it doesn't score as high on quadrant, but its also not tricking it. The baked in one is. The only down side to my apk is that it takes up memory.
