I just noticed that with AOSP lockscreen installed, the data mode setting in the power off menu now says unread messages. Its only with AOSP lockscreen installed.

Anybody have the same thing? Related to the Lockscreen/SMS issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] retrokick:
Mine says Unread Messages too. How weird.

(Yes, I do have AOSP lockscreen installed.)
[Epic 4G Android Development] retrokick:
1xRTT? Oh wow. I'm sorry! Yes, WiFi is definitely a blessing.

However, the speeds you're quoting for your Rev. A service seem incredibly unrealistic. Rev. A is barely capable of 3mbps, with Sprint quoting average speeds of 450-800kbps. Is it possible you ran your speed test with WiFi enabled?

I just recently discovered this problem, so I haven't had a chance to do much testing. I'll have to report back about speeds in different areas.

I did notice that when I run the speed test, my GPS icon appears. I thought it was weird, so I disabled GPS and ran the test again. All of a sudden, my inbound speed jumped from 150-225 to 400-450. I'm not quite sure why, but it appears that GPS is somehow interfering with my data speed. It seems like an easy workaround, but I don't want to bother with turning GPS on and off every time I want to use data. I usually leave GPS on because I don't notice much of a battery drain, and it's more convenient that way.

So, as I'm writing this, I tested again for the heck of it. With GPS ON: 49.0kb/s outbound, 241.75kb/s inbound. With GPS OFF: 35.0kb/s outbound, 394.29kb/s inbound.

Not very impressive speeds by any means, but the jump in inbound data speed is noticeable. Ideas, anyone? There was a big problem with the Epic when it first came out... the upload speeds were incredibly slow. I think that may have already been addressed in an update though, although I'm not sure. Could this be related? Or maybe it's a ROM issue? I'm temped to wipe and go completely stock again to see what happens.... but that would be a huge pain in the butt! Anyone's input would be greatly appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] andre141:
Wow! I need to look at what I type before I click submit!

I should have said that 3.75 was the absolute fastest that I've seen. Usually its not that fast. But I did achieve that speed once over Rev A. (and thinking back on it, that was on my Evo) but the average I usually get is about 2 mbps. On EVDO, I rarely see speeds under 500 kbps

The GPS turns on during speed tests to find the nearest server to run the test off of. The reason turning it off improved the speeds may be because it used a different server?

One easy way to see if your problem is the ROM is to see if you can get your phone to roam on Verizon and then run a test. If the speeds are higher, you know your phone is working fine and its the network. There is an app called "roam control" which you can install from the market (but its a paid app) which allows you to force your phone to roam.

Mine does NOT say 'Unread Messages', and I do NOT have the AOSP lockscreen (just as a point of reference).

I DO, however, have 2 unread messages on my homescreen notifier... but when I open my Gmail, I have 0 unread messages. Its driving me NUTS.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
The only real issue I am having is trying to send pics via a text message. I was having the problem with .06 and .07, using frozen emotionless beast, and the aosp lock screen. I would have to reboot my phone anytime I wanted to send a pic. I am also using the handcent app. But I also tried with the stock message app. I have un-installed the aosp lock screen to see if that may be the culprit. Anyone else having this issue?

Browser history and bookmarks - how to get there

I recently purchased an Epic 4g and I'm loving it! Was using WinMo devices and got really comfortable with flashing roms, so I rooted a few days after I got it, straight to this ROM. Still figuring it all out but so far I'm impressed!

anyway, you won't see me posting too much because I search EXTENSIVELY before I ask any questions. But this one I can't seem to find a good answer for. The long press on back button does not work to get to browser history and bookmarks. Is there another way to get there? or a way to restore this functionality? Thank you in advance,
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
To get to bookmarks and history, on the right side of the address bar is a flag looking thing with a star, that is a link to your bookmarks and history, just press it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] philalford:
Thanks a lot for that, I figured it was something simple.

I installed 2.0.07 and now I lost me data connection. I have odined back to stock rerooted and still cant keep my connection. Anyone else heard of this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hugo87:
Running 2.0.07 with ext 4 mod. Best and most stable ROM I've used. Getting 1547 in quadrand and 14 mflops in linpack. That ext 4 mod is def worth it to me. Fast as hell. Phone is so responsive.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rcboosted:
Can you explain what ext4 mod is and what it does? Is ext4 the file system ext4?
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
Does .07 support ext4 and can any one else confirm
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
.07 doesn't have ext4 built in, but I am currently working on it. Finally trying to get in the groove again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
New version is now in the works, 2.0.08. It will have ETX4 support & is seeming pretty fast to me. Its interesting to finally see the big difference side by side on my parents Epics. My mom is still on 2.0.07 while my dad is now on 2.0.08, a big advantage of both my parents having an Epic.

I think later I will make a short video or something to show Quadrant Advanced side by side between my mom's epic & my dad's... the results are looking good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gdbassett:
Dameon is definitely pushing the leading edge forward fast. Do you expect to rap cwm3 support into 2.0.0.8 or will it need to wait?

[Epic 4G Android Development] Migital Warfare:
was there a changelog posted for .07 somewhere in the thread that wasn't added to the changelog page?

Also, is there a chance we could have the black version of the MIUI Player that was included in Bonsai4All and Frankenstein also included in the next release of EE? If I could get rid of that purple, that would be awesome!
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
I'm waiting on the new clockwork until it becomes more wide-spread cause once you're on it the flashable add-ons won't work anymore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
Since u already finished. 08 how much longer till we get it. Sry for my impatience im just too excited
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Still need to type up the changelog. Its been hectic lately with having to put my dogs down and I've been sick since Christmas… on top of that I just found out I have strep throat now. It's been an adventure, that's for sure.

As for the music player, I won't be including it in the ROM itself, I've had multiple people ask me not to do this, although I agree its a really nice music player. If people change their minds, let me know & ill consider it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
I'm not sure if 2.0.08 is "finished" yet… my dad is running it & testing it right now but I may add a few more things until its out. I don't think it should be too long though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rygran87:
Very excited to see this update. I'm curretly running Quantum with the dual ext4/rfs kernel. My battery life is kinda lacking since the jump. Can't wait to have my EE with ext4!!! Keep up the great work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] bnguyen1983:
Not sure if this is a problem with the ROM or the phone it self but when I have 4G on and connected, and I try to make a phone call, I cant hear anything. Turn 4G off and its fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] khari998:
Adding the MIUI music player? its a fantastic music player. the second best next to the fascinate music player in my mind. i meeaan, idk why ppl are complaining about putting it in.. its a small apk and really, what is ONE app going to do to the whole EE rom when your adding ext4 anyway??
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
I prefer the player this rom already has so do many other people so I think many people wouldn't want it plus for those who want it they could just flash it. Also a few hundred pages back in this thread Schizopunk confirmed he will not add miui player. And y would u want 2ed best our player is super similar to fascinated player it just has some minor differences
[Epic 4G Android Development] gtuansdiamm:
When I connect mt phone and computer I get the options charging mass storage samsung lies and tether. So I always wondered what samsung kies was until today when I finally decided to google it. I am now wondering if the samsung lies is part of the theme im using or if it is part if this rom and also if it works. Im running ee. 07 and gingerbread theme 1.4
[Epic 4G Android Development] andre141:
I also have the samsung kies option. I am using the gingerbread theme too. The option didn't show up until I started using the gingerbread theme
[Epic 4G Android Development] Migital Warfare:
The MIUI player and the Fascinate player are only similar in the fact that they play music. The MIUI player is much more streamlined and easy to navigate, has real time levels animation, has lyrics, and auto-downloads missing artwork. The Fascinate player has none of those things.

The Fascinate disc view is pretty, but just as useless as Apple's Coverflow. The lock screen widget covers the time (and only works with the TW lockscreen). The visualization levels animation is a fake repeating loop that doesn't even animate smoothly. The filler images for missing cover art makes it difficult to find what you're looking for because there are several different filler images (and they change when new music is added). I think the only useful features the Fascinate player has over MIUI is that it has built in preset EQs and the 5.1 headphone effect.

As for it being the second best, its a matter of opinion. I just happen to not share your opinion. At the very least, it would be nice to have the black version of MIUI as a flashable.

ok guys update from my side.

I upgraded 2 epics to 2.07 and both had their 4g radios blown away dunno why.

Followed the instructions on the first post too, tried installing stock as well no luck.

sprint exchanged them for used phones so all is good now on the new phones.

Any1 have this issue as yet ?

I've been using this rom for a while and found that whenever I put the phone in airplane mode overnight, the battery ends up draining around 30% by morning. What could be the problem? Before I was rooted I lost around 8% max. I've also tried to calibrate my battery but still I get the same results.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TripleAgent:
Thanks, I missed sisodrmprovider. Is that new? I don't remember that being there back on stock...

Thanks

Ive been reading on these forums for awhile now, coming from a rooted Hero to the epic, and ive used viper rom, but this so far is the most stable and user friendly rom for the epic ive used. I have a quick question though, for Apps2SD ive been using Titanium to move them without any problem, and i tied looking through the 100+ pages for any alternatives besides that method. Are there any other or titanium is just fine? Thanks in advance and thanks for the great rom.

I don't know much about all this ext4/edify/rfs crap but I did have a short chat with Noobnl and he told me that most the serious devs want to stick with rfs where they can.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Ranger093:
If you want our phone stuck in the dark days for the rest of time use RFS. If not do yourself a favor and run EXT4.

Dark days? I don't think anyone's questions were answered with that comment lol. I've been researching this and still looking for substantive reasons for the change. Can someone offer some useful, relatively jargon free insight?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JPalmer123:
This from Android Central:

What's the difference between RFS and EXT4?

RFS is Samsung's proprietary filesystem, which has a pretty poorly written driver and is overall not very efficient. EXT4 is the filesystem used by Linux, and is more efficient than RFS. EXT4's efficiency over RFS gives a noticeable boost in operating system responsiveness/performance (the nimble Nexus S uses EXT4).
[Epic 4G Android Development] schizopunk:
Alright, so I have an update just about ready for you guys, but the only issue is I'm still stuck with this whole Edify thing. I need to find out how to get everything to install to the /data/app partition rather than /system/app... if anyone knows what I need to do, it'd really help me a lot.

The new version will be EXT4 compatible just so you guys know.

What is EXT4? Is it a file system type? If so, must you format the phone or something? I'm a n00b when it comes to that, sorry!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Migital Warfare:
RFS is a Samsung disk format that's slow, inefficient, and generally piss poor. EXT4 is a linux format that is streamlined, fast, and a better way to do things on our phones. When you install CWM3 it will convert your drive to EXT4 for you. If Schizo figures out this whole edify thing, that's all you'll need to know. If he doesn't, and we end up having to do something similar to what it takes to install ViperROM, the modded CWM2.5 will do the formatting for you.

Either way, the formatting will be done for you by one version of CWM or another, so you don't really need to worry about it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jirafabo:
