[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Sorry, I don't know about the feeds and updates cuz I don't use it, but ill see if we can't grab another one to see if that works.

Hello Every one

Hey bt

This is my first post but I have been lurking around here for sometime now. Well anyway I want to use the a2sd for the first time. Is there a size cap for the ext4 partition because I thought I read somewhere about not making it larger than 1.5g. If this is the case why? Will I have to also make a separate swap partition too just asking because being a linux user thats usually the case.......Oh and by the way should I wipe the whole sd card before I make these new partitions because I'm not sure how that will affect apps if I leave the old data on there.

Last but not least nice work on your rom its nicely done :D

Snake Girl Pic

I am VERY partial to the Trinity 3.0.2 rom

Where is the default wallpaper located?

If I change it how can I change it back?

I looked in all the file folders and could not find the Image.

Thanks in Advance!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
The default wallpaper is found in framework-res.apk ...its in alphabetical order, so it should be relitively easy to find.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Hey BT...got one question, how are people getting these rediculously fast benchmark scores (sub 30 seconds)
[Epic 4G Android Development] konaman:
Just wanted to say that I downloaded the overclock widget from the viperstore app and it fc'ed every time I tried to run it. I then downloaded it from the market and it worked fine.

I LOVE this rom viper team! As soon as I get my money right from xmas I'm gonna donate to u!

Keep up the outstanding work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
What did you set overclock min/max to?
[Epic 4G Android Development] pfries:
Do a clock work backup then reflash after you have flashed boot up into clockwork goto restore choose advanced select data and you won't have to recustomize.

Happy Holidays to all

And thanks to the viper team for all the work on a great set of ROMs .

Upgrade from 3.0.2 to 4.0.1

I had 3.0.2 until last night. Thanks for the great ROM. The only thing i have is about the lockscreen. Its a blank screen with the time and date on it. Also live wallpapers doesn't work anymore. I can't get it unlocked unless i open the keyboard. Hopefully there will be a fix for this soon. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Robert, is it a blank screen with the date and time or is it your wallpaper with the date and time. One of the features of this ROM is the glass lockscreen. It will show your wallpaper with out the the little locks or arrows. Try swiping your finger across the screen and see if it unlocks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] asapelectric:
go to page 185, where BT puts zips out to flash for live wallpapers or maybe viperstore now. Fash all 3.:)
[Epic 4G Android Development] MadMan3353:
how do you know if the govner and lag fix is installed
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Lagfix is no longer needed so dont worry bout it and yes govner is installed intot the rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Just got my Epic last night, been reading through the forums here like mad.

Have a little Linux experience years ago, and ton of experience jailbreaking iPods/iPhones, I know it's all a different ballgame, but with good info I can work my way through most.

I've also read through about 1/4 of the posts here, but it seems like a lot of the concerns and issues should not exist as of v4.

I really want to load this up on my Epic, but I have a few questions:

- I know it was just posted that you no longer need lagfix, but the instructions indicate you either get to install lagfix or a2sd. I'm guessing Viper has been optimized and I don't need to fuss with installing either manually if I flash Heaven. (how does this affect Part 3 in OP's second post?)

- As far as what is included and packaged into Afterlife -Heaven and what isn't, is there a shortlist of things from the store that aren't included? Seems like everything is packaged, but does that mean it's installed and setup?

- Are there any instructions/tutorials that help someone like me start from ground zero? Or do I need to follow a different tutorial that will get me to a point where I can start here? (UPDATE: Just noticed a good run-through in the FAQ, but I'm not sure what is outdated with it appertaining to Trinity 3.0 Beta)

-Had someone suggest ROM Manager, said it allowed you to switch ROMs on the fly...after all of my reading in the past 24hrs, it sounds like that is too good to be true, as there are so many different variables that need to be in place for any given ROM.

Thanks to everyone here and their involvement. What a wealth of knowledge!
[Epic 4G Android Development] silasclaphan:
Do I flash sims 3 zip through recovery? Cause when I do , when I go to open it, it said problem parsing package. How do I fix this?

Also gingerbread youtube and dolphin look the same. How do I know if I have gingerbread versions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
do you know how to set/use the overclock widget? maybe I wasn't using it right, but all of a sudden my phone started freezing, going blank, etc. I had to pull the battery and uninstall the widget.

Do that, then flash this ROM. Rom manager is a good idea.

@ Team Viper member: What are the best settings for the overclock? I went and googled it last night but couldn't find info. Can someone help?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Do I need to do the odex or deodexed version?

I'm not as much worried about looks as I am speed & battery life right now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
What up yogi. I have questions about this too. I don't know the optimum settings. I couldn't figure it out either. I didn't want to screw anything up since I read you can fry your phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Yogi, the same overclock is in the market to download. I got it there and it works. I just don't know how to set it up
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
yep, thanks John. I got the one from the market also, and my phone started flipping out, freezing and stuff. I didn't know how to set it up either... I thought I had just used a default setting, but I'm not sure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I did the same thing. I messed with the settings and had same issues and phone was slower. Figured I better wait for an expert on this
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
ah ok, yeah... either we need to learn how to use it, or that widget isn't good for the phone, lol. I'm sure we'll learn more soon enough.

that undervolt mod rocks tho- increased my battery life by maybe 3 or 4 times!
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Yeah that is amazing. I think that may be my second best download after the rom itsself. For people reading this thread, add the battery mod...the battery life is unbelievable!
[Epic 4G Android Development] venumx:
are you looking to underclock or overclock?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I have extra batteries. Hoping to overclock
[Epic 4G Android Development] konaman:
I don't know how to use it either. I had the same problem as well. My phone shut off and I didn't know it so I had to pull battery and turn back on to uninstall overclock.

I'm just gonna stick with setcpu
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
well, I'm not sure really... this is my first with experience with it. I was probably looking to speed it up just a tad, but of course without wanting to cause problems or lose much battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Is cpu tuner basically the same thing because you can push 1 button for performance ir battery use and has min/max
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I believe there's an app for Overclocking (inc/dec the actual speed of your processor) and Undervolting (inc/dec the voltage that is used by your processor).

On a PC, undervolting is typically used to keep processors cooler & saving battery life w/o degrading performance. I'm not sure if the concept is the same here, but theoretically, you could overclock and undervolt.

Though, you could use an overclocking app to downclock your device when say, the screen is off...b/c who cares how snappy things are when the phone is sitting in your pocket or underneath you pillow?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
That's why I am asking about this "cpu tuner" because it seems similar to the one in ViperStore and if I read it right, can auto switch based on battery. To overcock do I crank up the min?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
ok yeah, we have the undervolting going, and that is great. so if anything, I guess I was looking to compensate for any potential loss in speed. we're just not sure how to set the overclocking widget to acceptable settings, lol.

Force Closes After Applying Themes

Is anyone else experiencing FCs after applying the Heaven and/or Hell themes? Everything with the ROM seems to run perfectly until I apply either of the themes. I've started from scratch a couple times and the FCs consistently start immediatly after applying one of the themes. I get FCs if I go to Settings --> Sounds, or opening ROM manager, among other things... I'm running the Hell ROM and most recently ran into problems after applying the Heaven them to it...
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
i love all that you are doing team viper. the roms the viper store its all awesome. do you have any idea when you will have ext 4 support on your roms? i know you guys are working on it. Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I am wondering if undervolt and overclock in a way cancel each other out or if performance is improved. Obviously I have no clue what I am talking about. I will use Cpu Tuner til someone can school me on settings.
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
It doesn't really matter, but I recommend the deodexed one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2sslow:
everytime I load my clock widget or the overclock widget, then reboot i get an error loading live widget.

Do i have to download the live wallpaper stuff on page 185 to get these widgets to load? Or do I just need to reload the rom? BTW im in Hell....lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Get the Overclock from the market. It is the same. The ViperStore one was force closing for me
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Then hold down on the screen. Touch widgit and there is overclock
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
are you using Launcher Pro? I had that problem, and it told me I had to buy LP Plus.... oh well, I spent a couple bucks, but I got my widgets, lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I've read that odex versions are a little snappier. Any credence to that? What exactly does a deodexed version allow you to customize over an odex version?

Hmmm...I just did the ODEX version following this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=853209

Can I follow the same steps to flash the DEODEX version? I'm thinking not so, but I have no idea.

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Undervolting does not affect processor speed, so it shouldn't degrade performance. Not sure what it does affect, I'm guessing there's some sort of industry standard for the amount of power the processor should have at different levels of processor speed.

Generally, your voltage increases as processor speed does. At least on a PC, there becomes a threshold where at a given speed, if you lower the voltage too much, your system crashes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
My bad Team Viper. I should have read the description in ViperStore where it says very clearly "Overclocking Not Available Yet."
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2sslow:
I did all of that and NO live widget will load after reboot, I get error failed to load widget.

I do not like launcher pro much at all so im not paying for it.

Im going to try adding the live wallpaper stuff first then Ill try reloading the rom if that doesn' t work and see if that fixes it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Thanks for the info. I am trying to learn as much as possible so I don't screw up any of this great work done by Team Viper
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
;)

I know nothing about Android...as in, I just got my phone yesterday. But I'm guessing the same principles apply. That's how it worked with laptops when I was OC'ing to squeeze out enough FPS to play the latest w/o frying my board. =D
[Epic 4G Android Development] asapelectric:
Please, by all means, correct me... but doesn't the oc widget allow 1000 megahertz, where as the standard is set at 800 max. I'm talking about what is allowed, not the processor rating. Technically, that's not overclocking, but allowing us to go to the max rating, with oc widget. I think...:rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] robertkyle62283:
Thanks a lot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Will it matter that I initially flashed the stock DK28 ODEX instead of DEODEX?

B/C I'll be flashing a completely different ROM when I do Viper right?

EDIT:

If it doens't matter, at this point, do I simply get the VIPER file on my SD card and "Install zip from sdcard"?
[Epic 4G Android Development] littlepr:
Guys,

Right now all you can do with any OC widgets or apps is underclock or set to maintain a constant 1000 mhz. Once the froyo source is out, someone will compile a kernel with the ability to overclock past 1000mhz. On Eclair they had it up to 1600 mhz. WARNING...overclocking will drain your battery faster and the phone will run hotter.

In my opinion overclocking Viperroms will be overkill. My phone is running mach5 speeds since I loaded the Viper afterlife rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Skidiver:
Live Wallpaper

Did you remove the live wallpapers from this ROM? If Yes...is there a way to put it back?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dannieboiz:
anyone having issues with the phone not ringing on the current release? Checked all my settings and everything is on, I'm getting sound from text and email except for incoming calls.
[Epic 4G Android Development] littlepr:
You can find them in the Viperstore app which is a new app included in the afterlife rom, or you can search for it in the market ( viperstore app that is).
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
You got it.

Nope, everything seems fine here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Sweet, I've got Viper up and running...now I have to play with it!

Hah, I'm at a significant disadvantage though...since I've used Android for all of 12 hours before loading Viper ;)

Any tips?
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
Make a backup. And then make another. And make one every time you change things as far as roms, kernels, new versions, etc. Do that in recovery mode. Either boot to it through rom manager, or do the 3 button method. Then enjoy the Viper roms, as they are probably the best out there right now!
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I take it these backups will be stored on the SD card?

Is the A2SD integrated into Viper 4? If so, how to I enable that badboy?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Thanks for breaking that down for me. I totally agree now that I understand. Afterlife flies already.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
I did have that issue, for a minute. I noticed that my call ringtone had been reset to nothing selected, thus no sound on calls. I changed it back to the ringtone I wanted, and maybe rebooted, and it never happened again. hopefully the problem won't persist for you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
Yup. You can restore them through CWM.

Download the Viper store from the market.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Are the Undervolt & volume hacks installed in the CWM as well? Or is there a different way?
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
Almost everything is installed in CWM. The few things that aren't, you'll be told how to install.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Awesome, thanks for all the help :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nvoltz:
This is for anyone that can help. I have successfully installed the (undervolt_Dalvik2Cahe) my question is there a console or an interface we use to lower the voltage, is it done automatically and how do we know if it works? Does anyone have stats or percentages? Thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
once you flash it, it simply runs as part of your system... no interface, that i know of. you will need to reboot and charge to 100%, and then you should see a big difference :). no stats from me, except that my mind was BLOWN when the change took effect.
[Epic 4G Android Development] silasclaphan:
Sim3 from viper store says problem parsing package when flashed through recovery, how do I fix this and if I can't, how do I remove it from my phone? Yes I tried new download and reflash.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nvoltz:
Yogi, thanks I'm looking forward to the efficiency, don't know if I should go out and buy a big 3200mAh just yet.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
try this first! i can easily notice a drop in the temperature of the device, and of course, the battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Anyone tried Set CPU with v4.0.1?

Just curious, I'm trying it out right now, and I think it's borking with my phone functions. AFter my last call the phone stayed dark and I had to pull the battery.

Not sure if this is b/c of SetCPU or something else though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sndtubes:
I'm using it and it works fine however I do have some stability problems with the undervolt. sometimes my phone just reboots
[Epic 4G Android Development] elevenpoint7five:
Using set cpu with no issues. No reboots.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Is the Volume Hack built into Afterlife like it was on TRiNiTY?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
Reinsatalled it and set up only a screen off profile this time instead of multiple, seems to be working as intended.

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Im willing to bet the problem isn't with the undervolt script, its probably with the overclock app you're using as this kernel isn't set up to overclock.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
BT, did you bake the Volume hack into Afterlife like it was in TRiNiTY?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
I hope I don't sound like an ass saying this, but John I know you have been active in this thread and for you to ask this question is a disappointment. This is why the Op has a changelog in it. The very last feature in the changelog for 4.0.1 is: ADDED RODD's VOL Hack or something to that effect.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Yes I use setcpu to keep it up to 1ghz and works flawless
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:

nice work! what are banners for, by the way?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
Nothing more than to show your support for the ViperRom! Strauss started it and I picked up the torch from there. I have been working on them since before 4.0.1 dropped. Hell's has been done and posted previously. I was in the process of making some changes to Heaven when 4.0.1 dropped and just got my phone reset up how I like it and was able to finish Heaven.

[Epic 4G Android Development] silasclaphan:
Sims3 samsung embed launcher apk, hit delete, but it re appears
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Do you have a regular uninstaller? Or check in the market to see if it is showing as installed. If it is already installed, deleting the apk installer won't take the app off.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
Hey BT,

I do have two questions for you. The first one I think Venum and Strauss tried to answer earlier but I don't remember anyone with a definite answer and I just checked the Op and didn't see it mentioned....Is Clockwork Redirector in 4.0.1? Cause if so, it hasn't been working for me. Second, I am assuming that the viperchat in the op is for use on a pc, but can the .zip be used on my phone? TIA!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yeah ...even thought it said problem parsing package, it sounds like it installed some files ...go to menu>settings>applications>manage applications ...look to see if it's in there and uninstall it first ....it sounds like only 1 of the 2 apps included in that package actually installed ...i'll take a look into it though and see what's going on with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
niiice... lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
Ok, no need to worry about question 1. Not sure why, but it's working all of a sudden so that question answered itsself! Just want to know about viperchat now. Again, TIA!!!!
