I downloaded the app yesterday. I can confirm the version we have on our Epics is newer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kibachris:
I'm kinda in the same boat, no media player has made me as happy as the MIUI player has. The purple's a little bit much (green or even a plain grey/silver might have been better) but it's not really that big of a deal. The quasi karaoke-style lyrics are a nice touch, though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Would you guys like MIUI music player cooked into the next version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] slikkstar:
I double confirm this because I had/used Swype v1.6 before and after booting Epic Experience v2.0.4 (which is fan-****ing-tastic by the way,) I now have v2.11. Well it's newer for me anyways. =]

Incoming Call Screen

Schizopunk- are you aware of any means that could change the Incoming Call screen on an Epic 4G?

The other night I was utilizing a Vibrant, and noticed that their incoming call screen utilizes the slide mechanism used in the AOSP lockscreen I believe.

Is it possible to port that into the Epic 4G?
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Not that I know of off hand. I wish.
[Epic 4G Android Development] zigarath:
first off id like to thank schizo for his hard work. I lurked for a long time before choosing this rom.

Secondly it runs perfectly but is one item shy of perfection. I seem to notice a distinct lag during initial homescreen swiping that I had not noticed on any stock rom thus far. This being my first custom rom for the epic it was something that was almost jarring. Yet i repeated the maneuvers thinking a program may be slowing it down but even on a cold start the initial swipe always stutters while everything plays catch up.

I work at cell phone carrier and show my customers how fast the epic is daily and what little screen lag it has.

Sadly if I want to stay on this rom i can no longer do this.

Any idea why this happens in your rom? I am trying to find something for my daily driver and was hoping this would be it. I suppose its back to stock til then

[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Nope. No froyo roms are until we have the source.

Hey Schiz, have you heard anything about any new builds floating around after dk28? How long do you think it'll be until we see an official release?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hugo87:
I'm pretty sure dk28 is the latest at the moment. Supposedly we should see official release at the end of the month. But we were suppose to have official a month ago so who knows.

I am on the 2.0.0.3 version now but want to go to the 2.0.0.4. I see in the second post:

*Notes

-If you do decide to restore data, it is recommended that you reflash the ROM overtop of your data restore.

Is this correct? Should I flash the ROM, restore my data, then flash the ROM again? (I assume the second flash you don't wipe it)

Am I correct in the assumption? Thanks for the help. I love the ROM I had an issue going from 2.0.0.2 at first but realized I did not have the DK28 on it. Duhhh
[Epic 4G Android Development] skandranon314:
+1 to not baking it in! If you do though, please make it uninstallable. I use power amp and I am very happy with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jirafabo:
Anyone remove all the touchwiz crap lately? I think in an earlier version of EE it was linked to problems if you did, how bout on 2.0.04?

I'm not gonna bake it in.

I have an issue on DK28 EE 2.0.04 that I also had on DI17 EE 2.0.01...

About 10 times a day I'll go to use an app (any app, system or user apps) and the phone will just freeze. I can wait about 30-60 seconds and it will unfreeze, or I can hold down Home and kill the app in the Task Manager. Any ideas what might be causing this?

Any word on this one? I want to make sure I do it the right way. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
If you're currently on 2.0.03 you shouldn't need to wipe, just flash 2.0.04 overtop.

The data restore is referring to restoring after a wipe.

Is there a 3g issue wth dk28? I posted earlier about terrible battery life (that was with 3g on), but today with wifi on all day I'm at 16 hours and 65% battery...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
You must not ever use your phone?!

I have it in standby mode most of the time and it still drains about 10-15% every 2 hours. At work, I do use Pandora w/ 4G a lot though (uses maybe 30% in 2 hours?). :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] netengineer:
Thanks schizopunk that helps a lot. I have figured out that all my issues that I have with the ROM were self inflicted. lol :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bilestoad:
Don't know about the stuck auto-rotate but the absence of the dialing keypad in landscape appears to be normal - I just flashed two other ROMs and it was the same way in each, but I did not Odin a 'stock' dk28 to verify.

I'm totally new to this. I'm attempting my first custom rom install on my epic 4g using odin and I can't seem to find the necessary ".tar" file I need for the PDA section.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RustyPwns:
I experience that with 2.1 though. Seems like a hardware issue rather than software.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
schizo,

If I have noobnl's 2.2 rom (DK28) can I flash to your rom directly without Odin? Is wipe required? I've already Odin-ed and did everything noobnl required to get his rom on here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
If you're already on a Froyo ROM & you're using the latest modem you wont need Odin, although if you're coming from another ROM, a wipe is required.

If you restore data, be sure to reflash the ROM overtop of your data restore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Ill make it a flashable.
[Epic 4G Android Development] br//0k3/n:
So, I'm on DK17 with a custom ROM. Just flash the DK28 pit+modem, wipe phone and cache, flash this over it, flash data from nandroid backup, and flash the rom again?
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Correct.

Enjoy the ROM!

[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
It worked without wiping, I just flashed EE and was up and running. To be safe, I wiped 3 times, restored data, then flashed EE again over it. Seems to be working. though I'm having issue connecting to my wifi at home. Not sure if it's a ROM issue or interference here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
It may work without wiping although in the long run you will most likely run into some problems.
[Epic 4G Android Development] boktai1000:
Hey schizopunk :)

Would you be opposed to adding the epic/moment/nexus sounds to the ROM? Like the notification, ringtone, alarm, etc sounds?

Keep up the great work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] skandranon314:
Cannt upload it on tapatalk but there is a flashable zip with these sounds. I think its from the eclair ee thread in the OP.

Well i had to switch back to syndicate. Phone started acting up, couldn't get gps to work. Battery said 74% and i soft booted to try and clear up some issues and it then said 4% all of the sudden. Then nothing would run smooth.

Mine started randomly having the black screen of death. I've since switched back to the ACS froyo (actually right after that post), and all seems well so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lifeofbean:
Definitely digging Experience. Only one gripe, and I'm not sure if it's the way TouchWiz is installed with the rom or if it's something I have screwed up.

The preinstalled stuff that came with Experience is sorted alphabetically like normal. Stuff I've installed is sorted by the time it was installed. Only happening in grid view, and it's happened even after rebooting the phone a couple of times.

Any idears?

edit: nevermind, google turned up this posting. hopefully this might help someone else though. http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=7982196&postcount=2. And it won't re-order on its own, I went ahead and switched to ADW.

[Epic 4G Android Development] popularbelief420:
So I had an ample amount of time over the weekend to perform my own method and steps. Here are the methods I used to flash to Epic Experience (DK28) on 2.2.1 :

Wipe phone.

Odin 1.3 to DJ27

Provisioned Voice/ Data/ PRL/ Update Android

Update Android (downloads and updates the Maintenance Release sent by Sprint)

Provisioned Voice/ Data/ PRL/ Test GPS (accurate to 10 meters via google maps)

Odin 1.3 to DK28 modem + pit

Provisioned Voice/ Data/ PRL/ Update Profile/ Test Gps (accurate to 10 meters via google maps)

Rooted using ( http://firon.net/xda/one.click.root.exploitv2.5.5.zip )

Booted into Clockwork then Wiped Data 3X , Wiped Cache 1 time (per Schizo)

Flashed Epic Experience.

Provisioned Voice/ Data/ PRL/ Update Profile/ Test GPS (accurate to 10 meters via google maps)

It's a long process. Trust me. but it's worth it when you see that GPS Lock indoors next to a window.

Hope this helps anyone that can't get GPS lock when Odin to Epic Experience Froyo (DK28.)

anyone else getting poor battery life???

I flashed EE and its a GREAT ROM everything is working perfect except my battery life! My battery drains in a few hours with casual use now...I was getting atleast 12 hrs of use and now my battery is done in 3 - 4 hrs (wifi, gps, bt, 4g all disabled)

I'm trying to fig out why my battery life just crapped out on me.

I had an issue when i rebooted my phone (the battery was around 60%) trying to get the wifi tether to work and when it started back up it prompted me to plug in my phone due to low battery (was showing like 15%). I thought that was odd seeing that a reboot shouldn't drain the battery that bad. So i plugged in the phone for a few mins and unplugged to get the same prompt. I decided to pull the battery and when I turned the phone on it was at 60% again. I think this may have been the start of my battery problems.

I also noticed that my Task Manager is showing that im using 179MB/303MB of RAM and when I clear the memory at both levels the best i could get was 129MB/303MB. Is it me or is that alot of RAM to be used when nothing is running?

I keep seeing metion about battery calibration...do you think that might help my issue :confused:

thanks

-B
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Most likely I don't think you're getting as bad a battery life than it looks. I've had this same issue when rebooting my phone. It seems to occasionally read wrong after rebooting for some reason.

If you were to take your battery out & put it back in it should start displaying right again. This has been an issue with our phones.

If you just let your phone run down to 0% it could sit there for hours even with intensive use.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pre2epic4g:
Schizopunk,

Basically, what if anything should not be working as normal if one does not install the dk28 modem? Everything seems to be working just fine on my phone ever since I noticed that the instruction was included on the AndroidCentral forum and not here.

Thanks in advance for your time as I am just learning Android from having switched over from a Pre.

[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
schizopunk,

I think I just encountered a strange bug. I got a txt, which I set to ring tone but no vib. I ignored it for a bit, and it actually buzzed a quick buzz. I opened the text, then tried to pull down the status bar, and everything froze. Then the phone went dark with just the soft buttons lit. It quick buzzed once, then quick buzzed three times, and the phone came back like I just rebooted. The cell was picking up the signal, wifi was disconnected, media scanner running. Now it's working normally. Not sure what that was about, thought I'd report it.

*edit* never mind, it just did it again. exact same thing after a txt.
