After installing part a, I formatted my memory card and booted back to clockwork mod but I'm still getting failure at line 2 and the "cant open /cache/recovery/log" message. Could I just rename part b update.zip and install it like an update? Is there an alternate method beside cwm to install this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
did u go 2 advanced> reboot recovery?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
are you saying your clock work mod isnt working or you get that error when you try to flash the b files?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
could it be that formatting the mem. card after flashing part a could have messed things up? since part a is where you convert to ext4? i know this was asked before but i never saw an answer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
I dont think so cause i dont believe E. is your sd card sector i think thats an internal partition on the phone... i formatted my sd card between a and b just to make sure i didnt skip anything and mine works great
[Epic 4G Android Development] Tinukedaya:
I am getting this error when I try to install part 1:

Any help on what I'm doing wrong? I'm pretty sure I'm following the directions. :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
oh ok, that's cool. good to know, lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
OHHH wait i dont know if this has something to do with it but doesnt version a move your dalvik cache to your sd card.... Is that type of file stucture that there having erros on get saved to the dalvik cahce folder... i would think not becasue the error would read e:/ dalvik cache/recovery/log blah blah wouldnt it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
are you flashing from hell version to (A)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
yah, ya know, i think someone already did this, but we should have everyone follow the complete steps that have worked for everyone. i.e. add to BT's instructions for flashing .2a and b: formatting mem. card and flashing 4.0.1 first... since that has worked for everyone i believe?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
LOL that would be me... i started at 4.0.1 and walked my way up to (B) after getting the same errors that everyone else gets and starting over from stock. Unfortunately some peeps are having problems getting back to stock which is the crucial point in this whole process

HELP

Where did you find this file?

TIA,

jjjjayd13, :confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
ah ok, LOL.

yeah, that complicates things for sure... i wonder what's up with ODINing all of a sudden? could it have anything to do with ext4 coming into the picture?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jwhisl:
I swear, I did nothing this time that I didn't do before, except wipe everything 3 or 4 times and format the card after a. IT WORKS!!!!!!!!!! THANKS SO MUCH TO ALL WHO HELPED ME WORK THROUGH THIS!!!!!!!!!!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
no clue i odin mined today with the files i listed in my earlier post and used the one root i listed just to try to duplicate what people were saying there doing and the errors there getting and mine worked fine everytime. I have stuck with these certain files for Odin cause i believe in not messing with a good thing if its not broken... hehe

Re you use the 8b md5 or the 8gb? I cannot ever get 8gb to work find th 8b file. I can send to you in 20 minutes when I get home if you can't find it. Works perfectly for me everytime
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
WHOHOOOO WE HAVE A WINNER .... thats awsome bro now put the phone down and dont touch it for three days and dont try getting all antcy pantsy and try installing more custom stuff LOL
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
ahhh that might be a good one there... Im using the 8g file and its working on Odin v1.6 it didnt work on Odin 1.3 nd only other problem i had was a hash error which i just removed that part from the file and it flashes fine... ive flashed it atleast 20 times on mine and other peoples phones but i would definitly try the

8b file just so others can get past the tast of taking there phone back to stock..
[Epic 4G Android Development] sweepingzero:
Yeah for some reason I've never been able to get 8gb to work always errors on me. I've odined my phne 5 times this week alone with the 8b works fawlessly everytime.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
Take your phone back to stock with odin or you can try to flash hell over your current one.. i would definitly recommend odin first then flash hell or even one back then follow the steps .... dont forget to root after odin if thats the route your going to take
[Epic 4G Android Development] cgarcia200:
I had a question what can we install from the viper store that will work on 4.0.2b like the dialers or the live wallpapers. And if I don't like a dialer can I remove it without reflashing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
you can do both of those but do a backup just in case and dont forget to flash them in the 2.5.1.2 cwm the orignal versions are on the viper store as well if you want to switch them back

Quadrent scores are not real. The numbers are faked by the rom makers. Higher quadrent score does not mean faster phone. Just fyi.

I'm not sure if this is a bug or if anyone else has this issue (I'm new to flashing roms). The stock lock screen has a small lock icon that you drag to unlock, and when there is a message or missed call, you can drag the icon in the direction an arrow points to, in order to go directly to your missed call/message. I don't have the lock icon, ot the missed call/message icons, but I still have the green arrow.

Is there a way to get this functionality back, I really liked the stock locksreen? I'm on 4.0.2b.

Thanks much.

Now before a 'permanent' change, what is the advantage/disadvantage of EXT4?:rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] henboffman:
I know that there is a thread somewhere covering this, although I can't find it (read:google cant find it). It was a somewhat lengthy debate between daemon87 and noobnl regarding whether or not ext4 is harmful for your phone in the long term. Someone posted a link to it on this thread, but that has to be 50-100 pages back now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jjjjayd13:
Advantage?

If the deterioration of my sdcard will happen after 50 years then this is a moot point.

Briefly relate the time of usage under EXT4!

I think that ANYONE that is going to flash an EXT4 ROM that cares about their phone should be educated.

You need to read both of the following threads at minimum:

Are there known incompatibilities between this rom and SetCPU? My phone has been shutting off randomly when the screen was off (also, I happened to have a profile set in SetCPU to where the Cpu speed when the screen was off was at 200-400). I have had this problem in multiple roms, however, and only since I switched to Froyo, so perhaps it is just an incompatibility with froyo and setcpu? Has anyone else experienced anything like this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kgbcapthowdy:
cant run setcpu on the 2.2 for epic right now b/c no source code so no kernels that you can over/under clock

Ever since I updated to 4.02b I cannot get wireless tethering to work. I keep getting "tethering errors check show log". The other issue I am having is when downloading files from the web the download says my phone cannot support the file, WTH!
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
I may be mistaken, but I think you technically can run SetCPU, you just can't overclock past 1GHz (which isn't actually overclocking on the hardware level...it IS a 1GHz processor after all).

But, henboffman, I was having some issues with set CPU, especially when coming out of sleep, I had it set to go to 100-200 MHz with the screen off. BUT, BThomas has integrated a script of his own into Apocalypse, after uninstalling SetCPU my problems disappeared.

Now, I don't know if BT's script is dependent upon SetCPU being installed or not, but things have been better since I uninstalled SetCPU.

[Epic 4G Android Development] dieselg5:
hey guys I'm having a problem with this rom, it won't boot into anything but clockwork after I flash #4

Here's what I did:

Odin to DK28

One click root

Odin PIT and modem.tar (in PHONE)

Flash #1

Reboot recovery

Flash #2

Flash #3

Flash #4

No errors but I can't boot into anything but recovery. I tried a battery pull, selecting reboot, and adb doesn't work so I can't actually boot the phone. I've been trying to figure this out for hours, any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
try going through the steps 1-4 again
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Well if you are using the .tar file, you don't need to use the pit it contains both. You use pit and bin together. Also when you do the advance/ reboot recovery after flash #1 make sure your clockwork says 2.5.1.2 at the top. Good luck :-).
[Epic 4G Android Development] dieselg5:
So if I odin to DK28 I don't need to odin the pit and the modem.tar again?

recovery still says 2.5.1.0

@makipsee I can't because anything I click on in recovery just goes to black screen, including reboot
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
then u should just odin back with dk28... and yes with dk28 tar u dont need pit or modem.tar
[Epic 4G Android Development] dieselg5:
Ok I did that. I was using one click 2.5.5 so I switched to 2.5.0, after I went into recovery and tried to flash #1 I got failure at line 3 and everything I click on in recovery produces a black screen just like before.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
yeah all you have to do is take the md5 off the end of the file name and it will flash fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dieselg5:
Ok got it to work, thanks guys. I think the problem was that I was pressing the home button on the screen and it was causing a black screen. I only used the enter key on the keyboard and everything worked.

You have to install it. You can download viper store from the market and d/l Gtalk from there. Then flash it with clockwork (advance->reboot recovery first).

Also, you don't need the govenor killer, it's already baked in.

The Data Service Governor Killer is baked in as of ViperROM v4.0.1

Might I suggest attempting a quick search on the thread prior to posting a question? Not trying to be a **** but the thread is flooded with the same questions multiple times and it's probably the fact that the thread is so long that causes people to just post rather than sift through pages and pages of thread searching for answers. A quick search for "governer" or "ungoverner" would have answered this question for you. I know there is a lot of extra fluff on here that nobody wants to read through but the answers are there too if you use the tools to find them. Just a thought...

Plus the more we can cut down on duplicate posts the easier and more likely it is the questions will get answered. The people answering the questions don't want to read through endless posts either :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
It's a known issue and they're working on it. Some people have had success with Barnacle Wifi Tether and some other options (if ou search the thread for "tether" you'll find what others are doing) but the Viper team is working on the issue and will have a fix soon.

The 2nd flash formats the SD card to be compatible with EXT4. The 1st flash is the new ClockworkMod Recovery (it might do other things, I don't know). If they're not getting the modded Clockworkmod Recovery after flashing the 1st zip they can't flash the next steps...
