Finding yet another moment to chime in I work at radioshack and lived in one of tmobiles 1st locations and the coverage isn't that great...ill explain it like this tmobile moves into an area makes that area good but somehow in their methodology or something fail to consider the surounding areas....tmobile is good but good luck having a non jigsaw puzle like service...
[Epic 4G Android Development] phantomevo77:
YEY!!!! T-Mobile buddies now!!!

(Im staying on Sprint and getting T-Mobile :P )
[Epic 4G Android Development] bnguyen1983:
Their 30 bucks for data adds up to about the same as Sprint and from experience, their HSDA+ has more coverage and is either equal or faster to Sprint's "4G" which is not really 4G either. No company has real 4G yet. And Tmobile has always had the best customer service out of all the companies. Sprint used to have one of the worse next to ATT and that was one reason why they were in decline for four years. Ive had dropped calls with Sprint and rarely from Tmobile.

Btw Im on Sprint now and was a former Tmobile customer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] CryptAnalysis:
Same experience here with T-Mobile, good service but there were so many areas where you would just lose it. Sprint doesn't have the broadest coverage but it is always predictable. At least for me in my area.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Alright, back on topic ;)

Leave T-Mobile to another thread.

Hey guys, I'm gonna post the next version 2.0.06 tonight when I get off work. I work 3pm to 12am.

[Epic 4G Android Development] NeonMonster:
Hey everyone in here, I have a quick question.

Last night Sprint gave me a new Epic because I dropped mine and cracked the screen. (Why they gave me a new epic instead of just fixing the glass is beyond me...)

Anyways, I flashed DI17, then the DK28 modem, then flashed EpicExperience 2.0.5. I was having problems with this new phone locking a GPS signal, so I had to re-ODIN quite a few times....

I'm not sure if I missed anything...

Here is a screenshot of my About Phone, I feel like I forgot to replace the kernel or something important, but my phone seems to be running Froyo just fine... Is anything missing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rhyme187:
naw bro your on the right kernel your good
[Epic 4G Android Development] tim.d:
Just wanted to thank you for the excellent rom. Gps works like a biotch in heat, the phone is fast and stable. Great work and I hope you don't totally ditch the epic community.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Don't worry, I'm not ditching you guys. My parents are buying the Epic so ill still have it to develop on for you guys.

All you guys here have become like a family... you're not getting rid of me that easily ;-)

I just recently moved to EE 2.0.0.5 from the last pre-Froyo EE. I am mostly loving it except for two or three issues.

I just noticed today that I cannot get a GPS lock at all. Is this a known issue? Is there a fix for it?

I am using the ADW Launcher and sometimes when I exit an app, all my icons are missing for a few seconds and then show back up. Is this normal? Is there a fix for that?

Sometimes when I open the gallery, it takes a while to load the pictures. Is that normal? Is there a fix for this?

Should I be running SetCPU with this ROM?

Thanks for the answers and all the hard work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
Glad you think of us as family and your not leaving us for good. Thanks for the awesome developing
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
Yes the gps lock is a known issue there is a thread for it but its seemed like a pain so I didn't do it. I would put the link but I'm on my phone

The missing icons are probably the stuff you have on your sd card

The gallery thing is also normal and I don't think it has a fix but if it does someone point me in its direction

I'm pretty sure set cpu is messed up on the galaxy s line and all it does is eat battery
[Epic 4G Android Development] skandranon314:
I use setcpu and have never had any issues with it on the epic.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:

[Epic 4G Android Development] ogrillion:
Just wanted to post a follow up on my issue. When running dk28 and even the older froyo roms, my screen would sometimes turn off and not turn on unless I pull the battery.

Flashed stock and it hasnt happened. Any ideas? Haven't seen anyone complain of this ugh. Could it still be hardware if it works ok on stock?
[Epic 4G Android Development] II5StarII Swag:
Hey guys is there a way to turn off the lights at the bottom that turn on everytime the screen is on? because "display" is killing my battery with brightness set on minimum and i think turning the lights off might help a little
[Epic 4G Android Development] markz68:
Here is the link. It worked for me and wasn't difficult! After the steps in the first post, you will be on a stock 2.2 unrooted phone with a working GPS. After the first step in the 7th post, you will be rooted again with a working GPS.

Now I am about to flash the EE 2.0.0.5 ROM again. I'll post again with the results. Hopefully the GPS will be working!

Sorry, work has been crazy with the holidays.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
dumb question, what does "modem" mean and do? In reference to flash DI18 modem, flash DK28 modem etc.
[Epic 4G Android Development] markz68:
Yeah, I understand that. I hate having to setup the homescreens again. Especially remembering what widgets were where! And I lost a couple 5-star levels of Angry Birds Seasons, because I forgot to redo the backup first!

Other than that it all worked great!

[Epic 4G Android Development] slikkstar:
Yeah it WAS, but with the new updates appbrain fast installer won't let me direct download apps to my phone, I have to do it from my pc which is SOOOOOO lame compared to what it used to be.
[Epic 4G Android Development] skandranon314:
Still the fastest way short of a backup restore to get back to normal everyday ops. Fast install no longer works due to the new market in 2.2, not appbrains fault. I think it sucks too. Either way I didnt use fast install for a clean wipe. I just restore my backup from launcher pro then download appbrain and tell it to sync. Then one by one tell it to install the apps as they pop up. A PITA but the best way I have found. If there is a faster way I would love to here it.

Don't let the candle wax drip on your phone.

XD

On a non joking note, Schizo I tried your ROM after using a few other ROM and ROM/Kernel combinations and the EE is seriously the most legit "thing" I've put on my phone for what I use it for. You'll be catching a donation from me tomorrow when my direct deposit goes through. Keep up the good work buddy, I have this thread favorite-ed on my laptop as well as my xda app on my Epic. XD

Oh before I forget, has anyone had problems with the battery percentage? I've tried recalibrating twice, but when I charge my phone, it hits "100% full" when the circle in the top right corner says 96-97. If I leave it plugged in for a few minutes it shows 100 in the top right corner, but as soon as I unplug it, it drops to 97-96. I still get amazing battery life (about 14 hours with a lot of use,) I just want to make sure nothing is "seriously" wrong I guess.
[Epic 4G Android Development] skandranon314:
This is normal due to the way the phone charges.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slikkstar:
Well that, is also lame sauce. Btw. I'm testing out an app backup/restore method and if it works even semi-fast I'll let ya know. ;]
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
It's also how lithium ion batteries work. They don't stay topped off very long, the voltage drops very quickly from full charge, then it gradually drops in voltage over time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] slikkstar:
That's extremely lame considering I've had the phone for less than a month...
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
Nothing to worry about really. I know it's nice to see that 100 and have it stay for as long as it can. But on the stock rom, the gauge doesn't start to fall until almost 80% I believe. Giving me the false sense that my batt's full all the time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
schizo,

I've got a question about the email client. Is there a way to override other people's email text color? I have my email background set to black to save battery, but if I someone has their text set to black, I won't be able to read it unless I change the background color to something other than black. I noticed it only happens to emails from a certain people, so I think somehow they have their email text set to black explicitly.

To anyone out of the loop, I'm not sure if all you guys know, I have officially switched to T-Mobile & the Nexus S, although ROM support will NOT stop for the Epic 4G & Epic Experience. My mom is getting an Epic for Christmas & my dad is buying my Epic, they're both going to be running my ROM. This means I still have phones to dev on, which is good for you guys ;)

I just want you guys to know, I will not be leaving you all in the dust cause I ditched Sprint... support will continue for sure.

Total NOOB here, so please excuse my ignorance.

1) What is the method for backing up what I currently have?

2) Since I have 2.1, I want to flash to 2.2 prior to installing "EPIC EXPIERENCE", I saw in the flashing instructions something about files in the ODIN that you download, is that self explanatory as far as how to install 2.2?

3) Anything else that is pertinent or tips prior to doing this?

Thanks much.

Schizo,

GPS is not working in 2.0.06. Is there a planned update to the ROM when it will include the fix by default?
[Epic 4G Android Development] littlepr:
Kies mount mode

Schizo,

How did you get the Kies mount into this rom? Will it work with the non-US Kies tool where MTP can be used to add music to the phone?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kgbcapthowdy:
my gps is working just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] goddimus:
GPS works fine on mine but I updated from 2.0.05 to 2.0.06. Did you have Stock 2.1 before going to froyo? The reason I ask is because there was a problem that many experienced when Froyo leaked out where they were not able to use gps The solution at the time was to flash back to 2.1, obtain a gps lock and leave gps toggled on, then update to 2.2.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Just wanted to keep the ROM unthemed. My view is themes should be kept separate from the ROM itself.

Downloaded 2.0.6, and ready to flash! Just waiting for a change log. :)

I added the Nexus S ringtones and notification sounds to the 2.0.6 zip file to save myself some time flashing. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Neptune5k:
Noob question here - is this done simply by dropping the ringtones, notifications, etc into their respective folders within the zip? As it is right now, I just have some of my more commonly used one on my SD card, but it would be nice if its that simple to slip them into a rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Neptune5k:
If you're already on a DK28-based ROM you should be good, otherwise you'll need to use the DK28 modem file here: http://www.multiupload.com/56EJ2LA2BU
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeonMonster:
I think you can do it from a normal file window (not 100% sure), BUT I use 7-Zip to manage all my zipped folders/files. I opened the Audio folder within the zip, and then dragged them from each respective folder into the EE 2.0.6 folder.

It should work as long as they are in the correct media format, which i think is .ogg type for notifications and ringtones..

Just read the news about the switch to the Nexus S. Though you mention that support will continue for the Epic XP ROM, I'm a bit weary about future updates. Dude I think you have developed on of the best ROMs on this platform and when these jokers tried to pull you off XDA, a lot of us went raised cane. I respect your right to move on to another phone, but the only way we'll get good ROMs I feel is if you are running them on a daily basis pounding it out. I plan to go to 2.0.06, but after that, I'm not sure what I plan to do. I feel like we are loosing the Micheal Jordan of the Epic ROMs here. Thanks for all your work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
LOL i know what you mean and im even expecting updates to takes 3 times as long but what can you do, that's the price you pay for a sweet ROM like this
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
I am going to try with everything I got to make these updates keep coming, I understand all you guys' concerns and they're definitely valid but just keep the faith.

If I didn't hate Sprint so much I probably wouldn't have switched, but I've been with them since high school and I have not been happy. I went off my parents plan and switched to T-Mobile on my own, I gotta say, its amazing.

My dad is a major user of android and with that being said I will have his phone on hand a lot to push out these updates for you guys, don't worry. The fact that he works from home helps as well.

It really means a lot to me how much this ROM means to you guys and trust me the ROM means a lot to me as well... its my baby, kinda like my first born since it is my first official ROM I have ever created, I won't ditch it that easily.

I hope this clears some of you guys' concerns, but I do understand if you're still worried.

Adb Remount - Remount Failed: No such file or directory

Okay so I followed the directions to a Tee and everything seems to be working fine. I have clockwork recovery. I can boot into it, back up, wipe, flash... the hole 9. I have had issues with rooting in stock Roms acting strange after root so normally I just do a backup, then flash a custom Rom. I am running Epic Experience 2.0.06. Everything appears to be fine. Superuser works I can install busy box update it, run apps like titanium backup, wireless tether, etc.... But I cant get the phone to let me do an adb remount. I can access adb shell just fine. it responds with the "$" at which point, I type "su" then it changes to "#" (showing superuser is working fine) I can execute nearly anything I want inside of shell but I am wondering what I am doing wrong and why I can utilize adb remount properly. Any input is greatly appreciated.

I can get Adb to mount via Clockwork too which makes me think this maybe Rom related more then anything.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ggoldfingerd:
I'm confused since there is no change log. The title says DK28, but on my Epic, it says 2.0.06 is DK17. Only reason I ask is that I just tired to flash a battery % from DK28 and it failed. I know where to find the other so I will just wait for the change log.

Thanks

Gotta quick noob question. I understand a data wipe isn't necessary unless noted, so will it be safe to go from 2.0.03 straight to 2.0.06 without a wipe?

Also I want to thank you or your hard work and dedication, schizo. Too bad you moved on to the nexus s but definitely glad to hear you will continue development. I look forward to your futre releases
