Yes very weird. I would dl launcher pro from market and open it and all my settings are already there. Then I reboot phone and its all gone. No optimizers of any sort. The apps I dl do show up in app list untill after I reboot. When I backed up with titanium I was on viper 4.0.1 Hell with CW 2.5 RFS, no ext4. Only thing I flashed from CW was the 4.0.2c dual boot ext4/RFS.zip so I did not install any extras. There is one other a few pages back with same problem also using RFS.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Strange Brew:
Sooooo sucky! I got a taste of that much anticipated 4.0.2c RFS and it won't hold my apps :( sniff sniff. I'm sure team viper will trouble shoot when they get to it though. Thanks guys. Ill keep my eyes on the forum.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
Sounds like its a apps2sd froyo issue.

I found this thread on it. Try the suggested workaround and report back please.

[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
Ok so I kind of noticed this similar behavior.

I just installed apps 2 sd and angry birds and angry birds season. Ran all the apps. Noticed that angry birds was installed by default on my sd card. So I rebooted.

Sure enough the apps were gone when I booted back in. I waited about 20 seconds (20 secs after the sdcardgets scanned) and they showed back up.

Can you try just waiting a few minutes after hitting the apps menu and see if its just a seek time issue?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Topgamer:
yea i seen that it said u could use cwm 2.5 or whatever but what i dont understand is it say clockworkmod 2.5.1.0-rfs? what is the rfs i no i have 2.5.1.0 but is that rfs? sorry for noob ?'s
[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
Search my previous posts for your rfs question. Its a filesystem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
Try restarting your launcher.

Can someone tell me the difference between CWM 2.5.1.0 and 3.0.0.5? I have 2.5.1.0 with Apocalypse 4.0.2b installed so I'm just wondering if upgrading the mod would be worth it b4 I ugrade to 4.0.2c.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
3.0.0.5 supports ext and rfs, 2.5.1.0 supports rfs only me thinks.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Strange Brew:
I found that if I install 4.0.2c RFS over 4.0.1 Hell without wiping everything with CW that my apps are holding fine. When I did the CW wipes before installing, all my apps would dissapear after a reboot. All good now :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
which wipes do you mean?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Strange Brew:
The 3x system wipe, 3x cach wipe, and 3x davlic (or how ever its spelt lol) wipe.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Fangs87:
how do you tell if your on ext4 or rfs? does it display filesystem type somewhere?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
If you're on 4.0.2c, easiest way to check is to reboot into clock work. If it's orange, you have cwm3 and thus ext 4, if it's green, then you are still on 2.5 and thus rfs.

Here to confirm the "out of space" issue, when greying to install wifi tether.

I have never tried to install a tether app.

I did a clean odin to current c on ext4 and also formatted my sd card inbetween. I did however do a titanium app+ data restore, and then a cwm data restore, so perhaps something is lingering.

Ok just wondering cause kinda weird . But last night I odin to stock / then cwm3 and then flashe 2c and everything was great . Set phone up completely . Then today went. To use gtalk and wasn't there so figured id flash the zip from store that was on sd. Went into clockwork and it now shows 2.5.1.0 . Why did this happen and did I do something wrong.

By the way loving the rom no issue at all . Thanks vipes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
If I'm not mistaken, the only way to have cwm 2.5 AFTER an Odin to stock, would be for you to install 2.5 (fancy that).

My guess it's you one-clicked with 2.5 and flashed rfs 4.0.2c

Did you ever see an orange CWM, or has it only been green?

Struggling w/ GPS, can't find answer

First of all new ROM is GREAT! Thanks Viper Team!

However, I can't get GPS to work. I searched forums and found this thread:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=10354786&postcount=2663

Which says to get lock each step of way.

I Odin back to stock DI18 and get lock, no problem. As soon as I Odin to DK28 (which I'm pretty sure is non rooted version got it from link on OP), no luck. GPS gone. The post says to download maps each time (don't know what was meant by that, so I haven't done that).

I've also loaded GPS Status app, tried clearing data. Nothing

Any thoughts? Everything works AWESOME with the exception of GPS.

Thanks for any help you can provide.

[Epic 4G Android Development] blademonkey:
I wouldn't be so quick to judge most companies. Running companies isn't that easy, especially at that size.

"Worst Customer Support" means nothing, especially if you consider we are sprint users, and some of us are old enough to remember the early days of sprint customer care.

Samsung is no different, and like many other companies, in order to make monies, they can't focus on just one product.

Installation question

I'm currently using the EXT4 version of Midnight ROM version 2.6. I'd like to try Viper as it has grown increasingly laggy and buggy. Three questions...

1. Do I need to re-ODIN or can I skip this since I'm already on DK28 and formatted for EXT4?

2. Can I flash this ROM through the old Clockwork or do I need to install 3.0?

3. Do I need to wipe or can I flash Viper over Midnight?

Thanks for your help! I know this has probably been answered somewhere, so I appreciate your patience.

PRL update still fails in 4.02c

Hey Guys,

Nice work on 4.02c - really impressed with them amount of internal storage I now have with this version (once I loaded all my apps that is). Anyway, I thought I'd report two problems to you and your team:

1. Unable to update PRL. Select "Update PRL" my 3G icon immediately disappears and then I get the "Please Wait" and the rotating icon and then the error "An error occurred while trying to update your PRL. Please Try again later. Error: Internal Error."

2. Unable to update Profile. Select "Update Profile" and my 3G icon immediately disappears and then I get the "Please Wait" and the rotating icon and then the error "Your Profile could not be updated at this time. Please try again later. Error: Internal error."

As I mentioned previously the PRL problem could be significant for those of us who routinely roam because of poor Sprint coverage; I know that it's a feature most people don't even know that they need, but if you could devote some resources to this it would be much appreciated! BTW, I did a full 3X wipe of everything before installing 4.02c and then restored my apps using Astro with no problems whatsoever.

Thanks!

STAR WARS: R2D2 Ringer files

STOP PULLING MY ARM!!!

Hehe,

OK extract these files in your /media/audio/notifications/ folder, I guess you could put them in your ringtones folder as well.

Not much, but 3 R2D2 notification tones. They are all very small, I edited a couple of them to be that way, which makes them perfect for a new mail, text message, or system notification.

me = loves :D

EDIT: Sorry, this has nothing to do with the startup/shutdown sounds. =\ But you should be able to flash a file from the viper store to replace those with muted sound files.
