[Epic 4G Android Development] kalodyne1:
Hey bud, I'm really sorry to keep asking you for help, but this may be a good FAQ later on.

-->First time

(Beforehand I used a one click root program that has given me clockword mod epicrootprocess\epic.aio.v2.04)

I am using a calculator and I am ensuring that I am using 1024 mb per gb and I am fully formatting my card before each step one.

1. Formatted the SD card (partitioned using minitool partition wizard. Part 1 12gb fat32 primary, part 2 1gb ext2 primary, part 3 1gb Linux swap primary, (I left the rest unallocated as logical in case it was needed by the phone.)

2. Downloaded your vipertrinity rom version 3.0.2 to the main partition of the sdcard, BThomas22xa2sd, and the viperspeed lag fix.apk

3. Used Odin to modify the modem and pit files. the device reads dk28 as the build number.

3. Loaded the device in clockwork recovery and master reset the device, cache, and dalvik all three times each. Just to be sure.

4. Installed Viperrom_Trinity_V3.0.2 from sd, a2sd.zip and booted the phone.

5. I have tried this by leaving your lagfix.apk both installed and not installed on the phone when I go to terminal emulator. (I usually don't mess with the button in the apk considering it will only let me store up to 200mb on it and it's to the system memory not the sd card.) So here is the process I have tried with this

-->Turn on Ext2tools using viper lagfix and nothing else

--> Use terminal emulator (dled from market) to type boota2sd then enter, then after it runs through it's processes it puts the system file back to read only (don't know if this is an issue, but I figured you would know.)

*Use terminal emulator to type fixa2sd, (Same behavior as above with the system reverting to read only.)

At this point I rebooted the phone and I got it stuck in a continuous loading loop.

-->Second time

1. Formatted the SD card (partitioned using minitool partition wizard. Part 1 13, gb fat32 primary, part 2 1gb ext2 primary, part 3 and whatever was left as the Linux swap primary,

2. Downloaded your vipertrinity rom version 3.0.2 to the main partition of the sdcard, BThomas22xa2sd, and the viperspeed lag fix.apk

3. Used Odin to modify the modem and pit files. the device reads dk28 as the build number.

4. Loaded the device in clockwork recovery and master reset the device, cache, and dalvik all three times each. Just to be sure.

5. Installed Viperrom_Trinity_V3.0.2 from sd, a2sd.zip and booted the phone.

6. I have tried this by leaving your lagfix.apk both installed and not installed on the phone when I go to terminal emulator.

-->Fourth Time

1. I simply formatted the card and did not partition it

2. Downloaded your vipertrinity rom version 3.0.2 to the main partition of the sdcard, BThomas22xa2sd, and the viperspeed lag fix.apk

3. Used Odin to modify the modem and pit files. the device reads dk28 as the build number.

I am really trying to make this work effectively and I keep running into the same issues. I am using a samsung Epic from Sprint and I am running Windows Vista 32 bit. I feel I am at the end of rope with this and I am hoping someone out there is willing to give me a hand. Thanks so much in advance for your time and patience.
