I am on an EXT4 ROM right now, If I want to go to the 4.0.3 ViperROM do I have to wipe everything and reinstall my apps and Data? Or can I just do an install right over the ROM I am using now?
[Epic 4G Android Development] SemiGamer:
Make a backup through clockwork before you flash.

When you flash 4.0.3, it wipes everything completely, so make a backup before flashing or you'll lose everything (It doesn't wipe SDcard though)

Than just flash, let it boot, go back to Clockwork, go to Backup & Restore > Advance Restore > Choose your backup > Restore Data Only. Than let it boot up.

team viper is it looking good for tonight?

sorry to ask for ETA but i would've liked to test out new release and i wont have computer for awhile so im just wondering...
[Epic 4G Android Development] SemiGamer:
They're from a custom Launcher that Team Viper is making themselves.

Also, a Mod came in here and requested that we not quote pictures or extremely long posts, like quoting the OP or something. When you quote pictures, just delete them out of the quote or something and just replace it with "(SCREENSHOTS)" or something, and we'll know what your referring to since it will still have the name of the person that posted it as well.

I personally didn't hear about an update coming tonight, but if they said it would probably be released tonight than theres a good chance it will, but what we have to remember is that the leader (BThomas) is in Hawaii. Personally I'm on the east coast and its 9:43PM right now, which to me is "Tonight". BUT, for BT its only 3:43pm right now I believe. So for us in the East, "Tonight" means around 1AM or later possibly.

Just be patient. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
You're wrong. Well half wrong. I stated in post #2 that i was combining a bunch of different launchers into one. I'm not taking credit for it, it's just a new launcher with a bunch of features from a bunch of different launchers. No worries though :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Lol did we say we were releasing something tonight? ...i'm gonna have to check with the guys cuz i don't remember saying anything :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] jemarent:
the concept of the vipermini in awesome. So i assume it will compile an update.zip and then reboot to recovery and automatically apply the update? If so, that's so bad ass. That should reduce the amount of inquires you get to add this remove that...
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Negatron my little Elf lord :p... Here's how it works:

The first piece of action is installing the apk. when you open it and run it for the first time it creates a folder on your sdcard labeled "Viper". After that, whatever you choose from the mini kitchen creates a log and stores it on your sdcard in said folder. After you've made all your choices, it's time to flash the ROM. In the ROM itself are a couple scripts that are to run and look through your sdcard for this folder. When it finds this folder, it runs the certain logs that are inside it. Let's say you've chosen the Apocalypse theme... The scripts will look to see if you have "atheme" or "ftheme", by default, it searches for "atheme" first, and if you picked it, you will have that theme applied. If you DIDN'T pick Apocalypse theme, it will skip over the install of the Apocalypse theme and install the Frozen Theme. If you choose neither, the default theme will be applied. (which is the Apocalypse theme) After it reads through that, then it moves on to the next and so on and so forth. After there is nothing left in the folder for it to read, it just continues with regular ROM install.

Note this... When you download the ROM it will be running at about 180MB or so, this is NOT the total MB of the ROM that will be applied to your phone. Whatever you DON'T pick, automatically gets deleted, and after whatever you did pick gets applied, it is also deleted. That way, when you finish the install, your ROM will be back to normal size, about 130MB (unless we make other changes to keep it as small as possible).

Progress so far:

So far we've got the app to work flawlessly except for one thing. The themes. The boot animation works, and add ons work. Such as sprint apps, gingerbread keyboard, thirdparty apps, all that goodness. The only thing holding it back is the themes, which we've been getting closer and closer to getting every day. The frozen theme applies perfect, it's just a matter of getting the Apocalypse theme to flash without complications. We'll keep you guys updated with further notice :).

[Epic 4G Android Development] hayabusa1300cc:
If I am following you right, I will tell you this Rom is for the Samsung Epic. This will not flash on the Evo properly.

/And that's my 0.2 florin... Another message exported from Epic4g via Tapatalk Pro
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Negatron, this is for the Samsung Epic but if you download "ViperStore" from the market, and check the EVO section out, there is an EVO ROM in there for download.

is it just me or has anyone noticed slower download speeds on 4.0.3? i cant get higher than 40kbs on 3g and on my wifi, which is a 14mbs connection, with a high powered gaming router, i cant get higher than 80kbs when i use to average close to 1mbs. anyone else having problems or know a solution to bump up speeds? looked through the forum and didnt notice anyone else with the problem
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
did you do the data tweak and also remove the undervolt int from rom? Im hittin 10mbps on my wifi and 1.2 to 2.1 on my sprint 3g
[Epic 4G Android Development] Skidiver:
How can I remove the undervolt?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
no i didnt. is there a certain thread i should look at for these 2 things?

edit: used search tool and found the data tweak. gonna undo the undervolt later. thanks again!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
ok so i followed the "tweaks" but when i check status on Terminal Emulator it says my hardware acceleration has the wrong value. any reason why it would be saying that?

and heap size wont go to 64, it stays on 56
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
if you go to the main viper website at http://teamviper.devphone.org/ the third video down is the data tweak steps and you will need to either remove the undervolt using root explorer from rom and reboot or remove the undervolt from the rom zip then flash phone with the rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] Marlinsfan88:
got it. everything is matchin up now. thanks man. im gonna search on how to remove the undervolt using root explorer when i get home later tonight and test the download speeds. long as theyre faster i might leave the undervolt. likin the longer battery life
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
Download the ROM to your computer if you don't have it on there already. Without unzipping it navigate to the following folders...... /system/etc/init.d/ then find where it says undervolt and delete that. After that reflash the ROM. Make sure you do a nandroid backup in clockwork first before you reflash. If you don't know how to do that.... boot into clockwork via 3 finger salute (volume down, camera and power at the same time) navigate to backup/restore and choose backup.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smileestylz:
love this rom

One problem many apps keep force closing on me such as messenger to disable notifications why is this.?
[Epic 4G Android Development] pfries:
@ smileestylz

Did you come from stock froyo or flash over another ROM?

I had the same issues until I use Odin to go stock and then flash on the ext4 version.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smileestylz:
maybe im missing it are there more themes for this rom

Loving this rom new to root on epic but had my og droid rooted forever are there any other themes besides heaven and hell for this.?
[Epic 4G Android Development] gsrboy171:
there is got to be a way to delete undervolt with out reinstall the rom. i tried the stock rootexplorer but its stil there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
BT left instructions, search for his post a few pages back. You'll need root explorer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] guruleenyc:
nicest theme ive see so far!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] whahn1983:
I used Terminal Emulator to delete the file.

$ cd /system/etc/init.d/

$ su

(it will prompt you to accept root)

$ rm 04undervolt
[Epic 4G Android Development] Hasseo:
Ok, so, you need to do a couple things to get GPS working.

1) Backup and Odin DI18

2) Let it load and TEST YOUR GPS! If it doesn't work, Odin again.

3) Flash the 2.2 Update.

4) Install ClockworkMod

5) Flash ViperROM

You *should* be good to go!

Question... Is it normal for the battery to go down to 15% of 8hours standby time? Starting from 100? What's the average battery I should be getting on this rom to see if i have a problem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] samdsox:
Dude

Dude i lost 40 percent battery 70-30 overnight

My battery sucks.... Get used to it its the epic, thats what you get from a powerful ass phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Neecee, you may want to lookup the airplane mode toggle tweak, theres an extensive thread here on xda, make sure you leave it on airplane mode for at least 15-30s. See if that helps, or like I noted below, your phone probably had bad signal at night...mine gets one bar if I'm lucky, so I just turn airplane mode on while I sleep.

Sam, you must get crappy coverage at home, or wherever your phone sleeps. Either that or you got some whacky apps running all night.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Hasseo:
I leave my phone on during school and, running ViperROM 4.0.3 or whatever it is, I got 8hrs standby time with a 20% DECREASE from like 90%. I run Syndicate now, so I dunno if Viper has changed.

Anyone know if there is a Hulu hack?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ballerkz:
I'm using the Frozen rom and it is great but I notice a big drain on my battery after flashing it though. Its only when the display is on. Its been 5 hours and the Battery is already at 60%, the display has only been on for 40 minutes. I've already turned off gps,4g,bt,and background data. Any ideas on what's the problem

My phone rebooted today and when it started back up it made me start from scratch. (Touch android icon t start) luckly I nandroided (lol) yesterday but just a heads up....
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
Hmmm weird. Mine did the same thing also but not from scratch.. Just rebooted on its on lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
Sometimes my phone lags.. Scrolling up and down in three setting menu is a little choppy. Waiting on a new release..
[Epic 4G Android Development] thedarkness81:
I believe there was a tweak for that shortly after the rom was released. It also has a lot to do with how many and what apps are installed and running in the background on your phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
I hear ya but I had the same setup in midnight and didn't experience it. I applied the data tweaks as well..
[Epic 4G Android Development] thedarkness81:
I also know that low number of texts and clearing app cache helps too, but the new release should be coming out shortly and Viper has been the fastest and most responsive rom I've used.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Truballa11:
Bt Update

Computer crashed before I could get that update zip for the black/dark notifications. Any chance you could post that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
Well it looks like I might have found the culprit.. Setcpu! Apparently my setting of 200/1000 do not stick after reboot. it goes to 100/1000. I think that was slowing down my phone..
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Yes, SetCPU is not very friendly. For whatever reason, it will cut your benchmarks 40-50% as well. Even if you set it to 1000-1000, you'll get the same behavior.

Not sure exactly what it is, but perhaps it's the crummy kernal.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
Would it be better to uninstall it? How about OC widget?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:

If you have them running at the same time, it's no wonder you have issues lol ...try just 1, and if you only had just 1, i'd try to uninstall it and see if it helps
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
Is it just me or does the market have a mind of its own. Lets me upgrade apps every blue moon. I've tried clearing the data and cache. Still acts funky. I haven't upgraded apps in i don't know how long, and when I try to download apps outside the market just sticks at installing.. I've tried to fix permissions? Not sure what's wrong with my phone :( Maybe I need to Odin?

For those that are asking on how to do the data tweaks on the 4.0.3 FRoZeN ROM you have two choices:

1. Go to our HOMEPAGE and watch my video on it. I believe it is the third one down.

2. Go to our WIKI and you will find step by step instructions I have posted for you to follow. This is a direct link to the instructions.

Can't you just pull out the animation file and replace?

[Epic 4G Android Development] EpicUser:
Ok I know this question has been answered but Im using my phone to tether and it is extremely slow. I want to be able to remove the data governor and I already flashed the zip file but I don't think it worked. I also know there is a data tweak that would resolve the issue with slow data on the Frozen rom, I've tried to remove the file that is causing the issue but I won't delete. Any help is appreciated!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
The data governor is no longer in it ...the ROM's come with the governor killer baked in already. Open Terminal Emulator and type "busybox rm -rf /system/etc/init.d/04undervolt" ...that should increase data speeds

[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Hey man thanks a lot I realy appreciated
[Epic 4G Android Development] EpicUser:
It looks like there's a space after busy box, rm, and -rf...I'm pretty sure it has to be exact so I want to know if that was a typo or not. I tried it and I get the following:

rm: invalid option -- '/'

usage: rm [OPTIONS] FILE...

Remove (unlink) FILEs

Options:

-i Always prompt before removing

-f Never prompt

-R, -r Recurse

So did it work?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Actually i made a mistake ...redownload from the same link, i updated it ...i forgot the actual i9000 files lol ...but they're in there now ...and in order for it to work, you're going to have to manually delete the bootanimation.zip from system/media.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
My bad ...try this:

busybox rm -R /system/etc/init.d/04undervolt

Sorry, it's been a long day.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Ohh ok is that why it only has a shutdown only and not the start up? Thanks again dude u rock
[Epic 4G Android Development] EpicUser:
No problem man thanks for your help. This time i got the following:

rm: remove '/system/etc/init.d/04undervolt'?

So did that do the trick?
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
BT I wanted to tell you, after deleting that undervolt script from my phone, my phone acts better, and my sd card issue happens 1 out of every 8 instead 7 out of 8 lol.. So it's safe to say my phone didn't like it :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
OK so I did what u said but its only the shutdown. When I turn on the phone is still the same animation from before any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Did you remove the bootanimation.zip from "system/media"?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yay :D I'm glad it helped!! ...just wait till the Launcher, and a couple other goodies get released ...your phone will really love them :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
if you got root explorer, you can navigate to system/etc/init.d/ and see if it's in there, if it is, you can delete it from there and reboot your phone to apply the changes... if it's not, then it's been removed :) ...Hope that helps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Yeah and the normal animation is on but when I shutdown is the i9000. did I maybe miss something?
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Hmmm odd... Give this one a try?

[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Still nothing. Ohh well thanks for your help anyways really appreciate it
