"did my search first but couldn't find the answer on this thread before someone begins with their bashing"

ok so my question is if I Install the Modem and PIT this on my "Flashed to Cricket Epic" will I have any kind of problems for my PRL and PPP settings that I've done?

What I think is that it wouldn't matter because those are in a complete different filesystem on the phone.

But just making sure before I do anything,

thanks and awesome work to the devs on this project!!!

I cant use any internet browser with 3g ebabled. Is there any way to fix this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] frictitious:
Will you post up how it goes for you and let me know?
[Epic 4G Android Development] frictitious:
I just did it ill check my gps tomorrow and let you know if it worked. Rm came through unharmed.

beats using Odin.

here is the link: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=921935

now my gps locks on like is 3 sec. it auto update the prl too.

just call sprint for your MSL number. its simple to get it. it took me like 2 mins. they didnt ask no questions.

yes you can do it from the 4.0.2c rom, but it will erase everything.
[Epic 4G Android Development] raylusk:
You can also use this method. It was suggested by someone in the gps post. This will give you your msl number.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jjjjayd13:
Everything?

What is 'everything'?:confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] frictitious:
It erases all of your preferences and the extra apps you have added. However; it keeps the rom at 4.0.2c or whatever it is you have. I just ran this last night and I get a gps lock from inside my apartment now and fast.

It rebooted and didnt boot with launcher pro which is way better than touchwiz. But all you have to do is get homeswitch from the market and you're golden. Another weird thing is it erased a bunch of apps but the only app that it erased from the rom that was built in was the xda app.

Hey all,

Been on this rom for about 2 days. The only issue I have seen is somethimes, randomly, my phone app blows up on incoming calls. I get android.phone.something.something has randomly crashed and i have to force close it.. The error is something to that effect. I didnt see anything like this in this thread so figured I would post.

Also, very minor, but is there a way to completely silence the phone on this rom? No vibrate or anything.. I know I can manually chane the settings in messaging or the phone app.. I like to not have my phone buzzing at night for various things and just be able to see the icon when I check...

Thanks.

Thank you for a great ROM!

Just wanted to say thank you for a great ROM. I'm running 4.0.2c on my Epic 4G and it has been very solid. I have to say my battery has been great, today I'm on hour 26 with roughly 4 hours expected left to go. I regularly am getting over 24+ hours which is wonderful.

(FYI I don't calibrate my batteries because I use more than one, and charge them out of my phone, the only time I plug my phone in is usually to my PC for various data requirements, not for charging)
[Epic 4G Android Development] gsrboy171:
sounds like your not even using your phone. iam getting like 10hrs. my phone only use 4g when its charging. what the hell??
[Epic 4G Android Development] stevesprivateaccount:
Not sure what you are doing with yours. I follow pretty every rule of battery saving, but in the last 28 hours of use I've had 3.5 hours of phone usage, 150 emails across GMAIL and Exchange using push technology. 2 hours of meetings where my phone was in vibrate only mode for all my alerts. I don't use 4G much, although I did use it a little bit just to test speeds for about a minute in a part of town that I didn't think I'd have service.

I'd say it was about an average day of usage for me. I still have 5% left on the same charged battery from yesterday. (oh also I played pocket empires for a bit yesterday morning, last night and this morning.)

Missing Apps 4.02 RFS

I was having the missing applications issue and was able to resolve the issue by flashing 4.0.2c over 4.0.1 with no wipes. (The install script does it for you.) Thanks and just wanted to confirm resolution for folks who may had gone from 3.0 straight to 4.02c.

Anyone else having a problem with being able to back out of the contacts screen? Im using launcher pro and anytime Im in the contacts screen the back button wont work, I can only hit home to get out of there
[Epic 4G Android Development] gsrboy171:
ohh so you dont really play music from your phone. i use my phone to play music alot threw my bluetooth headphones and i play UNO or what ever game. also iam in the subway alot when iam traveling so its searching for a connection and probably taking up battery usage. my emails are check every hour. my screen settings is on auto. thats all i can think of.
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
I finally got around to flashing the newest version on RFS. I love it, except I can't seem to make calls very often. I usually have to try 2 or 3 times before it will actually call the person. This a Sprint thing or a ROM thing?
[Epic 4G Android Development] woodyth:
Are they landlines you are calling? I have had the same experience when calling them
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
Both cell and landlines
[Epic 4G Android Development] jaekebbler:
Same with me, I call then h/u then call back and phone starts to ring.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mohwak:
I believe this was covered before. Some one said to toggle the speaker phone and it should work. It has helped for me and i notice it happening less frequently since I started doing this on the calls where I cannot hear anything.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
yes, if the issue is that the phone IS calling the person, but you're not geting any audio, then the speaker-toggling should work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Probaholic1:
Why do I keep losing my setting phone my phone restarts, I lose all the apps and setting and then I can't access the market. I came from Epic Eperiance and I have the DK28 modem. I wiped the dev and cache 3 times. And I did it multiple times? I also have CWM 2.5.1 or something along those lines can anybody help me?

Before I restart the phone the ROM seems promising but I don't know why this is doing it.

[Epic 4G Android Development] jtmercutio:
I keep getting a DRM force close when my phone first boots up. This rom was super amazing when I first installed it (before it was posted here on XDA, yay IRC) Now it is just acting a fool. Phone is useless for the first 2 minutes after it boots up. Anyone else having this issue? Running launcher pro plus, have maybe 4 apps installed.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Strange Brew:
I have posted how to fix this problem twice with in the last 4 or 5 pages. People please read at least the most recent posts and/or check the viper website/wiki before asking and cluttering up the forum.

Here it is in short. You must first have 4.0.1 heaven or hell installed, then flash 4.0.2c OVER 4.0.1 heaven or hell. As in DO NOT WIPE ANYTHING before flashing 4.0.2c and this will fix your app and settings loss problem. This is for people running CW 2.5 RFS. This problem has not been reported for ext4 that I know of.

I messed up my phone..... can anybody help?

This started out of the blue:

I restarted my phone and I was presented with welcome to android screen. Also multiple installed apps were force closing.

applications still lists all my installed aps. I checked and it's still logging me into my gmail.... so a lot of the old settings are still there

So something is damaged or corrupted?

What should I do? backup as much as I can and start over?
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
what were the steps u followed? r u flashing .2c rfs or ext4? have u tried rebooting?
[Epic 4G Android Development] pdappcgeek:
well I've had this rom running without any problems since the 11th. I'm running ext4

I recently installed the disable boot sound from the viper store ( installed it by overwriting the contents of /system ....using astro)

could that of caused it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
i occasionally am presented with the setup wizard for some reason, even tho i am still logged in.... sometimes i can press the home button and make it go away. if you can't naviagate anywhere, and have an endless series of force closes, then you may need to start over.
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
yea it has 2 be flashed not overwritten
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
yeah, i have had some bad luck when flashing extra stuff on top of ROMs.... for best results, i try and just stick with what the ROM came with. not saying that caused it, but from my experience, maybe...

Hey sorry if this has been asked already. I tried to install Gtalk from the viper store but it doesn't how up in the app list. I also tried extracting the apk file and intalling it to no avail. I'm running 4.02c. Does anyone know how to install Gtalk?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
it looks like it is a zip to be flashed in Clockwork? you would probably go into Clockwork, and find the zip in the browser downloads folder of your sd card.

not listed anywhere

pls help

[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
go into astro and navigate to /system/app/ and look for the apk Talk.apk
[Epic 4G Android Development] dscarzella:
If you are referring to apps in general disappearing you prob need to flash 4.01. See Viper wiki linked on first post under known issues.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dscarzella:
If you mean the red pop up warning you and asking you to confirm that you are roaming yes that pops up and works fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] crayak:
I should have been clearer, I already tried that one file gave me an error, I found another Gtalk zip that did flash. But the app still doesn't show up.

I couldn't update PRL on Trinity so I updated to CWM3 and flashed 4.0.2c EXT4. I tried putting phone on Sprint only but it didn't work, I tried the MSL fix from the dial pad but that didn't work. I would still get an error when updating PRL. GPS works fine and locks on in seconds but I can't update PRL. I get an error when I try. I tried it again but now I can't even activate my phone. I may have to Odin back to dk28. Any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] woodyth:
i would go back and start over, I'm not sayin you f'd up but that way you will be more detailed in what you do. when I reset via ##786#, it updated my prl, maybe would try to do that again first before reflashing!

try that let me know

[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
Did you install the modem for dg27 when you went back? For that matter, did you install the dk28 modem before you installed trinity?

If not, that could be your issue. Maybe

[Epic 4G Android Development] mideastbeast:
I did install dk28 before trinity but I may not have downgraded to dg27 correctly. You wouldn't have a link for that would you? I followed the stock epic steps from this link and put in the pit and tar files. I don't know if this is the right way :confused:

[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
Edit: lol so easy to find. Its in the sticy from whosdaman. I know for sure that the tar and pit files work there

I need to preface by saying this response is kind of weak.

I assume that is the correct pit (modem) but I'm not sure because I didn't use it personally. The one I used was from a thread I believe by Noobnl titled one-click recovery...

It had all the stock files from dg27 through di18 and the odin file. I'm on my phone and at work so I can't really point you directly at the thread. But it should be in the dev section

I tried the stock DI18 using pit and tar files in Odin and I also tried the stock DG27 putting the tar in the pda and modem in the phone section (wasn't sure if that was right). I still get errors when updating anything in the phone (prl, profile, firmware etc.) I tried DG27 first and wasn't sure i did that right so i followed instructions for the DI18 fix so I know I did that one right. :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
I would stick with dg27 through odin. The phone should automatically update to di17 once it reboots. If so, test your networks (3g, 4g, wifi, etc). Then, odin to di18 or dk28 if you want.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mideastbeast:
With dg27 does the modem go into the phone section, do I use the pit file in pit section or just the tar file in the pda? just wanna make sure I'm doing it right. I found instructions for DI18 but not for DG27. The modem that came with dg27 is a .bin btw, it is not a rar'd file.

Thanks for the help again.

Update: The phone automatically updated me to DI07 but still getting internal error for PRL, profile update.

We were trying to get 4.0.3 released yesterday but ran into a kink. We have that resolved now so I need some testers to log into the viperchat. If everything goes well then the release will be today for sure.

So come show your faces and grab the new rom and test with me!!!

Also if you submitted a ticket and have not received an answer yet it is because we are hard at work trying to get the new rom out. Please be patient with us. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
Follow these instructions and you should be good. Put the pit in the pit section. Tar in the pda section. Shouldn't matter that its a .bin. Should work just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mideastbeast:
That's what I did and phone automatically updated me to DI07 but still getting internal error for PRL, profile update.
[Epic 4G Android Development] running_the_dream:
Damn that sucks. There's a thread on here that gves instructions for manually updating your prl. Then again, since you are fully stock right now, you may just want to take it to a sprint store. I had an issue where my phone wasn't getting 4g. I went into the *#147852* menu and was able to reset the modem. I wouldn't recommend doing that for your prl issue as I have no experience with doing anything manual with prl. So I wouldn't be able to try and help. *#147852# is useful to me though to check all the settings on your phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mideastbeast:
Thanks for all your effort, I appreciate it. I guess I could have left it alone. Apocalypse 4.0.2c was working great, gps was working great. I don't think I've been able to update prl since Trinity. I guess I'll be heading to the Sprint Store.
