I was 2.7 triple wiped everything and experience the 2 issues that have been reported by other users. The browser force closes when clicking a text input box and this also occurs with dolphin hd. Also no gps indicator in the notification bar. I think the issue is beyond that though, I don't think the gps is coming on at all. Using gps status it doesn't see any satellites. Even when I had gps issues in the past I was always able to see the satellites with gps status.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
hmm,i didn't lose my gps, so thats a plus, but when I did 2.8 over 2.6 without wiping, it completely reset my phone. is that normal? usually if I install over another rom, I don't have to resign into google or setup my wifi password again. seemed like it wiped on its own for me. 2.6 is working now again.

I'm still getting massive battery drain though. like maybe make it 8 hours if I'm lucky. display is always reading like 90+% of usage and I have brighteness at minimum and timeout at 15secs.
[Epic 4G Android Development] byersbw:
So I feel like I'm a ra-tard right now. I'm trying to rename the two sound files with root explorer and it says it works successfully but it lies. It doesn't actually do it. I've mounted the fs with r/w... I even installed ado team's file manager but it says it doesn't have permission. Any thoughts?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Theres a numer of things thst could leed to batt drain. Like if you leave your wifi on when it's not needed, or you forget to turn off GPS in the drop down. And it is normal for it to reset your phone, well, atleast with the way BThomas22x has his installer set up. It's set up to wipe system, data, and cache... Have you tried to calibrate your battery?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
what 2 sound files are you trying to rename? shutdown.ogg and ??
[Epic 4G Android Development] siphuyoda:
I've been getting random FCs on every app I try to launch. Needless to say, I'll be flashing back to 2.6 until this gets fixed
[Epic 4G Android Development] bampf846:
I flashed 2.8 over 2.7, and first let me say this is great! Thanks very much Team Viper!

I am having the two problems already mentioned by several - GPS status not showing in the notification bar (after I flashed the GPSFix5test.zip that BT posted up earlier), and the problem with the fc-ing anytime I try and type in a text box in a browser.

So, I sent myself the crash report from dolphin browser. If it would help the devs just let me know and I can send the file to one of you. (Sorry if this is a noob suggestion, just trying to help).
[Epic 4G Android Development] rmartinez2:
hopefully i can get some help in here otherwise ill have to throw up and add to the general thread. Anyway i flashed the newest version of this rom, 2.8 clean wipe 3 times etc etc. GPS didnt work for me like it had been working in 2.6. In order to get it working in 2.6 i did the whole odin to di18 lock gps go to dk17 lock gps then wipe flash rom. So i decided i would do the same with 2.8. I go to plug my phone in my comp and it says "one of theus be divices attached to this computer is malfunctioning and windows does not recognize it....." Tried multiple ports on my machine, i have 2 other machines and they all say the same message when i plug the phone into the comp. I've tried multiple cords and one of the 3 comps is xp machine (other 2 are 7). Anyone know what may be goin on the phone itself seems to work fine with the exception of the gps and well now the message im getting when plugging it in...?
[Epic 4G Android Development] moporoco:
Same issue as many others I'm afraid.

I have no GPS icon, and GPS appears to not be working at all. Tried to install the latest gps fix to no avail.

And when clicking a text box on a web page i get a FC. Opera browser works however.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DiNoise:
Confirming issues with 2.8

Flashed over 2.7 without wipe > 2.8 wiped my phone on its own..

So then I just wiped again to make sure its a clean install.

GPS stopped working (plus no icon in notif.bar), when I try to turn it on, radio resets.

FC after clicking on a text box in a browser.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sinman02:
+1 GPS doesn't work... My GPS was working fine until this release... I tried all the gps fixes posted on this thread so far. Terminal wasn't working so I uninstalled using Titanium Backup and reinstalled from the market. It worked then. Dolphin Browser worked for me. I flashed back to 2.6 and got a GPS lock without using wireless location to 2 meters indoors in less than 10 seconds. Flashed back to 2.8 for the hell of it... No dice... Got multiple FC in maps, then task manager. Flashing back to 2.6 for now...

as i have read and as the testers/devs know im having the same issue with the browser i cant type anything and in google maps there no gps icon in the notification bar other then that as the say for McDonalds.... "im lovin it" thanks for everyones hard work
[Epic 4G Android Development] brewdude:
I use Skyfire and don't have a fc unless I use the embedded google search bar within Skyfire. Google search widget works just fine. That and no GPS seem to be the only issues I'm having so far. I'm going to go ahead and stay with this version for now. Hopefully BT will have an "aha" moment and put out an update.zip today.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
trying that now, today, but display just reports awefully high, I haven't changed anything. gps is always on, wifi is on and I have wifi in the house. same settings I've always used.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
This is fantastic. you should make a thread for it and it should be in bold in a sticky!!

It would have helped me SO MUCH last week when I learned it on my own!
[Epic 4G Android Development] humdrum2009:
Love this rom but

I am haviny way too many issues and its not stable for me.

i have some issues with LP for a couple of the roms but i never bothered mentioning them since i wasnt following directions (i was restoring back 2 rom 2.5 then flashing over that... but with this one i did a full wipe 3 times and everything but still have problems with it... but all i do is go into the task manager and end it so it restartes and then its good for a while
[Epic 4G Android Development] HipHopIsLyfe37:
Where are all my apps???

I did a Nandroid backup of everything, wiped 3 times (data/cache/dalvik) and flashed this ROM (yes I've Odined). I rebooted to ClockWork Mod and when I do an Advanced Restore and restore data, nothing is on my phone! Why is this happening? Never have had this problem before
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:

Is there any way we can have a separate patch for TVOut? I tried flashing this rom, after wiping 3x and the terminal emulator crashed every time. I'm mostly wanting to just test TVOut on a different ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] imwillzillla:
back to 2.6 for me unfortunately, but 2.6 is great so it's all good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mommasboy:
Hello, is there any way to replace the launcher pro that came with the rom to the one I have on my SD card? I can't just reinstall it and I tried to use titanium back up to restore it. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sinman02:
Use titanium backup to uninstall is first
[Epic 4G Android Development] bampf846:
There is an option in Launcherpro to backup your settings (at the end of the preferences menu) and to restore your backup. You could try that to get back most of your settings.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mommasboy:
Thank you, I tried this and it worked. Thanks for the timely response also.

I'm having the FC issues with browser as well. Even tried downloading Dolphin browser to see if it would work. The FC happens when I try to login to my Appbrain account. Or any login through the browser interface. As soon as I tap on the box to enter username it FC's.

I see the thread about it, but no idea how legit yet. I am not seeing an update, nor is anyone I know personally or on these forums. Only the one person who posted the screen shot! I have been all over the web looking for info and I have found NOTHING yet, only that single thread.....If anyone can post up other info, that would be great. Even if it's true, I'm not dumping this badest ass bad ass ROM for that stock POS!!! No sir! I'm still rocking 2.6 with pleasure and giggityness!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
When you update this @BT are you going to have mobile ap working on the dk28 version of yours or will your working update.zip of it work with any froyo rom?

Hows the status of mobile ap and the testing of tv out?

Anyone get tv out working?

FC Issues

I'm having alot of FC issues with this rom can't use the web browser at all. When ever i go to type something in it FC on me. I really don't want to flash back to stock.
[Epic 4G Android Development] robl45:
well this 2.6 actually is faster than others, I tried other froyo roms and they were slower. this viper 2.6 is the best one I've found that actually works on my phone and doesn't FC all the time. EE FCed the TW launcher constantly, quantum was just slow. i've gotten a couple FC's out of 2.6 on TW launcher but few and far between.

superhero rom was okay but slow and wouldn't load after a reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
I recommend folks go back to 2.6 ...i'm not sure what's going on, but i'm already working on an update. My bad. It seems the last 2 releases haven't been up to par, but i'm on it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] J3ff:
yea, I flashed back to 2.6 because the gps didnt work in 2.8

If you could, please put the Application background as see through in your next release like you did in 2.2 !!
[Epic 4G Android Development] eidie:
That's crazy to be down on the last 2, you've been the best thing that has happened to my phone. If I were you I'd take a breather while waiting for that real OS to pulled off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
Hey big guy, I gotta reccomendation for you... there's a GTGTouchWiz over in the Captivate Themes and Apps forum that works VERY well with the 2.6 release.. Perhaps you could incorperate it into your next release. It has the transparent app drawer backround that everyone likes..

Ok I need some help with the lagfix, I follwed the instuctions to the T but when I got to actually installing the lagfix it says not enough free space in \data, what is wrong? I've moved all the apps possible to the sd card but still don't have enough room. Any help would be greatly apreciated .
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
Reflash the rom, as soon as it boots up, go into the market and install busybox, run busy box and install 1.17, once done, go into the file manager and find the lagfix.apk and install. If you install anything else before doing this, you won't have enough space. At least that's what happened to me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
hes right , you followed to an S not a T , it says to install lagfix BEFORE any apps, meaning you wouldnt need to move any apps to sd card..

unrelated edit: BOOMER SOONER! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
You dont need the busybox from the market anymore, BThomas22x has it built in in the release of the lagfix. you just gotta make sure the lagfix is the 1st app you install otherwise it wont install..

1. first install lagfix but dont run it until you install ext2 tools

2. install ext2 tools

3. install,"Restore boot animation".

4. then install lagfix...

I personally prefer a silent boot up but its easy to get the files. Just unzip a previous rom and get /system/etc/PowerOn.wav and /system/media/audio/ui/power_off.ogg (paths are something like that I think) and use those to replace the ones in the new rom.

[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
@Rodderik,

Hey buddy, does the battery mods you cooked up for Team Viper work on this DK28???
[Epic 4G Android Development] sniperkill:
When you install root before you install ANY custom ROM, thats a no-no.... Cuz most custom ROMS have root uilt into them and if you have pre-rooted, then the 2 roots can/could clash with eachother... Then you run into problems... All you need to install to get custom ROMS, is clockworkmod... So if you cant only install clockworkmod due to most of the one clicks install both cwm and root at the same time, install both, then uninstall root after you boot... Then install your custom ROM....
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
how do I uninstall root ...and if I do that then what Do I do after ...man o man no one ever said that to me or i must not have seen that ..I always thought u needed to be rooted and have custom recovery to flash any rom ...at least thats how it was wit the evo
