To address your concerns:

- Yes, actually my IQ level is that of a genius.

- Nor was I complaining, just stating facts as well.

- I am quite observant, thank you for noticing.

- Yes, I would like a cookie. I prefer Oreos.

- Yes, we are lacking on education funds here in the states. Perhaps you would like to donate to a worthy cause?

- Did you mean "Sense" and "Congratulations". Where did you go to school? Maybe I should go there for a spelling refresher.

ooo i love oreos!!

Well I got gps working, I had to go back to 2.1 stock get a gps lock in maps, install stock DK28 and then got a lock in maps. Then rooted with on click root and got a lock in google maps. Then reinstalled Viper Apocalypse Ext4 A and then got a lock in maps, then ran the update to Apocalypse and got a lock in maps. Its a process but worth it.

Now the only thing that I have a question I have is can I get the live walpapers to work with Apocalypse?

Now that I reinstalled Viper I can't get launcher pro to work. I had moved all my apps to my sd card and removed launcher pro but when I install from the market it doesn't take.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
I'm really not sure cuz i haven't had that issue ...but someone (i cant remember who, sorry) posted a fix to that a couple pages back ...i'd try search first, and if that didn't work, just go back a couple pages ....sorry man.

And yeah, live wallpapers work, just download them from the viper store and flash through recovery :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Strange Brew:
I'm accually a couple months from my BA in computer and electronics engineering and don't care about my spelling bud. Thank you for pointing out my mistake though and have a great day :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] tru2life:
what if you are coming from a ROM that run on ext4 already? I have tried a couple times and nothing works using the instructions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
if u already have ext4 all u should have 2 do is do 2 advanced> reboot recovery then just flash the rom zip #3 and then #4
[Epic 4G Android Development] thoristic:
Finally got it working on 4.0.2b with gps and mms working fine. What I did was odin back to stock dk28, formatted sd card on pc, installed 4.0.1, and followed the install instructions posted for the rom. Thanks viper team for the awesome rom and to the folks who posted the tip about formatting the sd card and flashing 4.0.1 first. I think it should be added to the intructions to cut down on the errors folks are getting.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Are you on clockwork 2.5.1.2 or 3. something?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
that is exactly what i think the proper instruction sequence should be :).
[Epic 4G Android Development] Webinator:
Got launcher pro working.

Where is the viper store on Apocalypse? Our is it a website? I have a live walpaper that I want to use can I do that or only ones frim vipers dtore?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
You can get Viperstore from the market. You can use any live wallpaper.

If you did anything special (not already posted) to get Launcher Pro working please post for the others having issues
[Epic 4G Android Development] lorenza:
viper store is in the market. Not sure about the paper but I would guess you can use yours.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
There is a mod in the ViperStore to enable use of live wall papers
[Epic 4G Android Development] Webinator:
live walpaper

I got the viper store downloaded and the live wallpaper app installed. When I downloaded and tried to install via clockwork I got E:Failure at line 3: copy_dir Package:system System:
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Whenever you flash, you need to make sure you are in the 2.5.1.2 ver of clockwork
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
you have to reboot recovery in cwm then flash the zip
[Epic 4G Android Development] Webinator:
How do I get into that version I have what came with apocalypse
[Epic 4G Android Development] Webinator:
zip

It let me install it see if it works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
when you boot into cwm go to advanced --> Reboot Recovery

the version info at the top doesn't change for some reason but it works. once here you can flash...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Webinator:
live walpaper

Well I got it to work thanks for the help

CW 3. When I follow directions I never see the green 2.5.xx anymore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lorenza:
I don"t think it went to crap, it's just an illusion. in "A" the battery gauge wasn't real, it was flawed. It was fixed in "B" and you are now seeing a more realistic representation of your battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
There is no way to reboot into any other version of Clockwork for me..so this rom is a no go. sticking with bonsai
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
I had similar battery issues. Don't know if it necessarily could have been attributed to 4.0.2b but I ended up flashing back to stock and reloading everything. This is probably a bit drastic but it worked.

My suspicion is there were some remnants left behind from the undervolt mods I had installed that needed to be wiped out via an odin to stock to allow the baked in mods within 4.0.2b to function properly

You can try wiping the battery stats in cwm to see if that solves the problem. It didn't help me but it was one of the suggestions I was given.

What are your battery use stats indicating to be the culprits?

You might also want to check this blog on how to improve battery life. I found it helpful http://jvoegele.blogspot.com/2010/10/how-to-improve-battery-life-for-samsung.html
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
This is 100% true!

It was not my issue though. My battery was draining rediculously quick (about 1% every 5-10min while the phone was idle).

I hope this turns out to be a non-issue but if it is an issue, you know what I did :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
I don't think you can flash with CW3. Even if you do the flash first step if you are on that ver, it won't work. At least thats what I have been reading.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Which ver of CW are you running on your current ROM?

Having same problem w/live wallpapers - cannot download Live Wallpaper support zip file from Viper Store. Direct isnt supported and when I go multi/direct it says 'cannot download - the content is not supported' and the other links dont have the file available. Any other place to get this??
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
In Astro go to "Preferences" & "Enable Browser Download" then it will work
[Epic 4G Android Development] robertkyle62283:
I downloaded the launcherpro update from the market. Then I opened up the 4.0.2b update and replaced the app in /data/app then reflashed and it worked fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jameshugh:
I just had this happen too and it took a couple tries to get it right... I installed touch down, rebooted and there I was stuck in this force close loop. I tried fix permissions to no avail. Anyone have a successful fix for this without going through the nasty nasty trek from stock to 4.0.2b. worst part was that I installed and configured touchdown and rebooted just to make sure everything settled and was going to nandroid...
[Epic 4G Android Development] dfox2:
You are the man sjc924! Thank you - I did a search and was reviewing all the threads and couldnt figure this out. Thanks again - really appreciate it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
Don't mention it, we're all here to help eachother, glad it's working for ya :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
there was no other option for me because I literally could not navigate anywhere in the phone... every time I closed one force close box, the next one popped right up immediately after. I tried just reflashing the ROM, but I got an error, so I just did the whole climb bcak up. let us know if anything else works for you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jameshugh:
I'm in the process of odining back from stock... I just wonder what caused it. I've done a lot of things that give me grief when it comes to this phone, but I can honestly say this if the first time I'm 99% sure I did nothing to warrant this lovely trip down memory lane via odin
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
is viperrom edify compatible?

PyRo
[Epic 4G Android Development] tr41t0r:
Need help.

I Installed the first install, and reboot recovery and it hung on the samsung screen. Did it again and then installed the second install, tried to install 3rd install but it said fail at line 12.

I tried flashing back to stock via odin and it fails

what now :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
not edify compatible yet
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
haha, i hear ya. all i did was leave my phone on when i went to sleep, and the battery died.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
what version of odin are you trying? where did you get the files to flash to stock? do you have experience with fashing back to stock or is this your 1st attempt?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tr41t0r:

4.0.2 a failure in line 12

ok been working on this and reading for the past 12 hrs and am still stuck here's my story at 1 point i was running apocalpse4.0.2.b and then the launcher pro expired while at work so i tried going back to ver a and the phone hung at the samsung screen so when i got home i tried to redo it and i odin it back to stock 2.1 and work my way back up i can get as far as afterlife hell 4.0.1 and works fine but when i try to change the rom to 4.0.2 a i get to the 3rd flash the rom it gives me an error failure in line 12 and phone is stuck again and have to start all over tried all the different suggestion as far as i can tell from reading even up dated to dk28 with odin in post 2323 any help would be great thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] dfox2:
Same thing just happened to me - right after I installed Touchdown. Odin here I come. Any clue as to what is causing this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
OK I've actually used that method before so I know it works. Did you d/l the ODEX or Deodexed version. I would recommend Deodexed...

Is this what you did?

1. Boot your phone into download by powering off your phone holding 1 on the keyboard and holding power til you see the little Yellow digger.

2. On your computer launch the included odin.exe and select the included victory pit and under PDA select the included SPH-D700-DK28-Extended-D.tar

BE SURE TO PUT THE .tar in the PDA section and make sure "Auto Reboot" is the only thing checked.

3. Plug in the usb cable.(if it's done right you should see a yellow Com device.)

4. Click Start

I this is what you did and it "failed" please provide specifics about where it failed, what it did...
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
I would try odin to DK28 (with cwm and root) then go straight to 4.0.2a

I know a lot of people have had success going to 4.0.1 1st but you've already tried that. Make sure you don't reboot the phone at any point during the process of flashing the 4 zips for 4.0.2a

You can't go back to an earlier version of ViperROM after flashing 4.0.2 without odin to stock 1st because of the addition of Ext4 in 4.0.2, just an FYI
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2delta1:
yea i found out you cann't go back the hard way lol thanks thou and i have tried going from dk28 and still get the same error of failure on line 12 and i don't reboot in between the flashes i get through the first 2 and get the error on the 3rd flash tried so many ways what makes me mad is i was running it before i was running trin 3.0.3 and upgraded to apocalypse not even installing afterlife and it work then up to the b ver and it worked now i cann't get to 4.0.2.a really starting to drive me nuts
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
You shouldn't have had the problem in the first post. Sounds like you rebooted your phone in the middle. After you flash the "flash first" you scroll down to advanced and click on it then reboot recovery and click on it. Not on reboot your phone. During the whole process you never come completely out of clockwork.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
After you flash the 1st zip and go to "Advanced" --> "Reboot Recovery" does it change to ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.2?
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2delta1:
thank you so much i i don't know how i missed that i wasn't going to advance after the first flash thank you now at 4.0.2 a just gotta take it to b now

once again thank you
[Epic 4G Android Development] tr41t0r:
Ok I managed to flash back to stock via oden, then flashed vipers dk28 via oden. I then flashed all the zips successfully in clockwork but now my phone just hangs on the samsung logo screen
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
Awesome!!! Glad I could help:D
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
what do you mean "flashed vipers dk28 via oden"? Are you referring to the DK28 modem and pit from post #1?

You're not gonna like this but if you're stuck on the Samsung screen you're gonna have to flash back to stock again...

After you flashed stock did you startup the phone, make sure everything was working, etc. before the next flash?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tr41t0r:
Yes the dk28 modem from post 1.

And yes I did let it boot up. Ill flash back to stock and try again
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
OK. If you odin to DK28 you will already have the modem and don't need to do it again. If you odin to stock (DG27, DI07, DI18) then you would need to odin the DK28 modem from post 1 to go from stock to ViperROM (any version)

Make sure you have DK28 (modem at a minimum), ClockworkMod Recovery v2.5.1.0, and are rooted before attempting to flash ViperROM

For 4.0.2a flash, After you flash the 1st zip, MAKE SURE YOU go to "Advanced" --> "Reboot Recovery" prior to flashing the 2nd zip and do not reboot the phone at any point during the setup

Hope this helps...
[Epic 4G Android Development] tr41t0r:
Got it. Thanks

Flashed back to stock and followed the steps and it worked.

Download the viperstore from the market. Open it and do a search for wallpaper. Download and flash the zip for live wallpaper support. When you flash it do in the clockwork 2.5.1.2

how to remove .zip apps

So i was going to let my girl play the sims game that was in the viperstore, so i downloaded and installed using recovery. The game won't launch and says:"Parse Error, There is a problem parsing the package". Now i would like to just uninstall, but am not framiliar with how to remove an app that has been installed this way. I know how to remove it from the rom before flashing to it, but i really don't want to go back and reflash just cause of this stupid sims game. Any help would be appreciated... Also, what's the best way to back up my apps when i move from rom to rom. Is titanium backup the best for this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] tpma4life:
Can you install this with the new clockword? It told me something wasn't compatible and you need to change the edify scripts. If not, how the heck do you convert it so EXT 4 is used?
[Epic 4G Android Development] fromchaos0646:
flashed 4.0.2b about a week ago and I've noticed a few bugs.

when receiving a call and sliding the lock up to answer it, the unlock vader sound overlaps the call.

battery life is terrible, even after calibrating, everything minimalistic, and undervolted. doesn't even last half a day and all I do I text and facebook and xda.

upon rebooting, my angry birds apps and a few others dissapear on my homescreen and I have to open my app drawer and put the back on.

wifi is stuck on obtaining ip and never connects.

sometimes in full 3g and 4g coverage, I can't connect to internet. have to reboot in order to connect.

sometimes mms doesn't send.

gps doesn't fix and is stuck on search.

I'm sure I can think of more, I'm jut drawing a blank right now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
If you're running 4.0.2a, then the 'b' update is pretty much a necessity before trying to troubleshoot any problems you're having.

Try that, and see what it fixes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fromchaos0646:
I'm sorry, I mistyped. I meant to put version 'b'.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Hello Team Viper (or any other knowledgeable person),

I wanted some clarification on A2SD. I know that as of know, A2SD isn't fully supported in 4.0.2x

Now, if I understand correctly, this does not apply to the innate ability of 2.2 to run apps from the SD card, but the hackish scripts of A2SD to run apps on the SD card that weren't necessarily coded to do so.

Assuming the above is correct, it's still safe to my apps to the SD card if they are supported to do so "out-of-the-box", right?

Vielen Dank

Well sharts. This is not good then. I hope my response doesn't detract from further help. Why don't you edit/delete the previous post and repost after this one.

As for battery life, two questions. Do you get very good service? Do you have mail/twitter/FB apps polling often to get updates? If you have FB installed, have you signed out of chat? And lastly, some have reported that disabling the DRM service helps out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fromchaos0646:
edited orignal post.

nope none of that crap. I have fb bookmarked and just open up that shortcut. all bckground data is off. and as withevery single flash of a rom, I use sdx and uninstall and thn disable the drm.

This ROM broke my recovery and bricked my phone. Worked good for about 16 hours... then it broke everything on my phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
the rom wouldnt work for 16 hours then mysteriously melt down your phone's innards....what did you change after it was running?
[Epic 4G Android Development] OShocke:
AOSP Lockscreen, and the Viper themed phone dialer.

worked great then it just shut off i would boot it no matter what i would open in would FC and then after 45 secs-Min phone would crash fully charged battery... tryed to flash a new ROM and my recovery stopped working due to the "Modded Viper Recovery'
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Hahahaha....couldn't help it. Thanks for the deep belly chuckle.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I think the "tryed to flash a new ROM" will be he crux of your problem. Please provide details, which ROM & procedures you followed?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
3.0.1+ wallpapers
[Epic 4G Android Development] Rodderik:
the lock screen might be the culprit....i would suggest using odin to go back to stock dk28, reroot, and reload the rom....i promise it will run much better

dialers are fine to flash but we can't help with other mods unless we specifically say they are compatible with the current rom....more mods for 4.0.2 will be coming out soon after we get some other stuff hashed out
[Epic 4G Android Development] Whosdaman:
