Just get a Google Dev phone, you don't need to sign in at all, just press skip. As for the data, just remove your SIM, it will then ask you to connect to wifi. Best phone's that can be rooted without hassle:

Nexus S and Nexus One

fastboot -oem unlock and just flash a custom recovery or push BusyBox and Superuser.
[Android Apps and Games] mastadont:
Thanks, I'll start looking into Nexus One. Maybe buying a dev phone from google is the least time-expensive option.

No signing is not an option with my T-Mobile MyTouch 3G. I can't skip it. I have to sign in to use the phone. No Wi-Fi is available at this point. I've talked to T-Mobile. They said I have to sign in if I want to use the phone, i.e I have to to get their data plan. End of story. :)
[Android Apps and Games] mastadont:
Thanks for your reply.

Is that true? I want to sign in to Google only when I decide to sign in, i.e. per need, say when I decide to use the Market.

I don't want Google to synchronize my things either. I am capable of keeping my things together myself. I understand Google's integration is haven for many but not for me. Usually I prefer to control things on my own. I want to have an option to decide myself what I want. And if I decide to use Google's sync features in the future, I'll use them. But I want to have the right of choice here.:)

If you're going to say "@don't use Android-based Google owned phones then"... Heh-heh. I turned to Android because it was advertised as an open-source system, and it opens horizons for developers. Now I am learning that it is not what it is said it is. It's more phone provider's oriented and it enables phone providers to dictate users how to use it and what to do with it. :)

After all, Google is a big corporation and I don't see any clear differences between Google and, say, Microsoft... OK, the business models might differ but still...

Sorry for my whining. I've been developing for PCs for too many years. :)

Glad to see you finally bringing this over to XDA from PCGeeks. Great rom, running smooth, and fast as ever.(:
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
WOW. Thanks. That means allot coming from you :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bubby323:
No problem. I am in love with the custom theme on here. I was coming from working on the gingerbread port from the Nexus S and my wifi broke when flashing back to DK28 with odin, it would shut off and reboot, so I finally just flashed this ROM again and what do you know, wifi AND gps are both working perfectly. Nice job on the ROM, I really do appreciate your work. (;

Where did Google Talk go?
[Epic 4G Android Development] zagtastic:
quick question, which version of mammon's rom is it based on?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Zei:
I said the SAME thing. I just extracted a talk.apk file from a bonsai rom and installed it like normal and it worked

*EDIT* any chance of the kernel being worked on to extend the 6sec timeframe for the boot sound. I mean id personally would love 15sec
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Mammon88's bonsai 1.0.3.1
[Epic 4G Android Development] humdrum2009:
Clean

This is truly the cleanest, and slickest themed ROM i have ever used.

Hope to see more work from you in the future.

maybe things are finally picking up for the epic owners.

CM6 coming along, More devs coming on-board,and this truly awesome battery saving theme.

I like the dark colors seems less of a battery drain for daily use thanks.:cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] usagi111:
Best Gingerbread looking theme so far!!!...I had gps issues in navigator however...anyone else get this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
No sir mine has been instant....just tried to reproduce to no avail...

Yes it is safe....
[Epic 4G Android Development] jok3sta:
I actually just found out why it was lagging. Im running the latest fancy widget and I had it set to show weather animations upon unlocking. That was causing tue lag.. everythings fine now
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
whats new for 2.11 pfc???
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
wow ptfdmedic, watched the video's in your blog, all i can say is, be strong and my thoughts and prayers are with you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
It's a pretty minor refresh. I know everyone is disappointed that DL11 didn't arrive. So I tweaked a few things and added a few new Livewallpapers. Replaced Email.apk with AOSP Email. Added Google Car Dock. Added TypoClock widget. Added the Gov Remover.... Things like that....

Again nothing major has been done but a bit more then I would want to flash via .zip....

Also added a new theme version that replaces the 1% battery mod icon with a blue evo style 1% battery icon... You guys seem to like the EVO stuff so I thought I would add it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cjobanion:
Hope you had a good Christmas!

Is the .09 version that is up now the "refreshed" version, or is that uploading?

Again nothing major has been done but a bit more then I would want to flash via .zip....

I'm on .09 now and and my system told me I already had that file saved. Should I just overrite it with the one you have on the OP or wait?

Great work regardless!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dzl:
The thread title says 2.1.1 SOON so I would think its in the process of uploading...or something

Definitely going to grab it when the newest link is up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
ROM IS UP.. Screens will follow shortly.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] bobbinferbears:
Great stuff pftd. Hope you had a good Christmas.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:


hi, thanks for your work! can I just flash this over 2.0.9, without having to do all the wipes? sorry if it's a basic question...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Sure. If you have problems you should wipe and try again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dralibak:
hi, i'm trying to install it, but it keeps telling me that it's missing whole file signature!

so what should I do? I even tried premium ROM manager to install it as a second option...

signature? what should I do?

thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Bobbywatts:
Glad you came to XDA!
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
thanks buddy, it worked with no problems. yours is fast becoming my go-to ROM- the most stable, smoothest, bug-free, and good battery life, out of all I've tried so far. keep up up the great work! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
I posted a mirror for anyone interested..
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
...and I "Thank" people for their feedback...lol :cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Rom manager will only boot you into clockwork recovery. From there you scroll down to "install zip from SDcard" then "choose zip from sdcard" then locate the midNIGHT ROM zip and select it. Once the flash is complete wipe the cache and dalvik cache x3. Reboot the phone and your done. If you want to flash a theme (download it to your sdcard) and follow the same process as above...

Let me know if you get it working.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Neptune5k:
Just updated to the new build with AOSP Lock and this ROM is plain and simple goodness. Thanks for the effort you've put into this, I've had no issues aside from the rotation lag that plagues all DK28 builds. I look forward to future releases!
[Epic 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
Question, If I have ver 2.0.7 can I upgrade to 2.1.1 without wiping everything? or can I do a nandbackup, wipe, flash, dump the backup?

Please advise, Thanks! Marry Xmas to all!
[Epic 4G Android Development] dralibak:
stuck in installation

Hi, unfortunately, after the installation of premium rom manager and attempt to install the clockwork recovery. I didn't try to see if it'd go to the modified one... i then when and selected the choose of alternate recovery in the bottom option of the rom manager from RA to whatever else (which i assumed would be the new clockwork).... then it rebooted to the SAME RA recovery.... from there I cleaned partition and data and (and by this time had called the download update.zip), and i then proceeded to load update.zip...

which then told me signature is missing on the whole file.

so now.. I can't reboot!! it takes me to black screen with samsung writing/logo and that's it!! it gets stuck despite wiping date and factory reset!!!

What should I do?

I'd appreciate it if someone could please help me.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Hey Ptfdmedic what is the best theme for this new 2.1.1 is it version 2a or 2.0, also do i flash 2.1.1 or do i gota flash 2.06 then 2.1.1
[Epic 4G Android Development] wudstock54:
Great rom. Smooth as butter. I am getting FC's on typoclock but so far that's the only issue. Thanks as always.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dralibak:
i posted the detail ...i'd appreciate help .. really.. as my phone is absolutely broken at present time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Neptune5k:
I just updated without wiping and havn't had issues. However, a nandroid or Titanium backup is always a good idea.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
same thing happened to me a while back... should be totally fixable by flashing back to stock. there are probably a few threads about this... i used the ones here, in the section titled 'Odin Stock Flashing':

http://xdaforums.com/wiki/index.php?title=Samsung_Galaxy_S/SPH-D700

if you can follow that, it should get you back up and running, you will need to re-root afterwards.
[Epic 4G Android Development] superradrudeboy:
It is up to you but i prefer v2.0 as a theme. You can use any of the themes with the rom. And as far as the rom, you can just straight flash the 2.1.1 rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
You can simply uninstall it...Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] jordan2333:
Your Rom are great like the other ones.No problems except for the fc on email.No biggie for me since i don't use it.Just thought i pass it along though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Prince_Basil:
I get a "Force Close" on Email all the time. How do I fix?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Go to applications in the settings. Wipe the Email data cache. I did change the email app in this build. That would be where the problems coming from. Worst case is wipe the phone and reflash.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] jordan2333:
Thanks for the fix.
[Epic 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
Reserved for future use.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Prince_Basil:
Thannnkkksss!! Amazing ROM! Wipe cache for TypoClock for fix on force close too. It worked for me. :) Thanks again!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
What do you plan to do... :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
Had a question regarding google car home, but I answered it on my own, didn't want to post a dumb question.

It was in regards to how to add custom buttons to the roster, but, figured it out: long press a button and you'll get an interface t add custom apps like predefined apps from the software
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
I meant to post about that. Thanks for reminding me
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
I'm having a few issues, but I think they might be common to all dk28 ROMs:

-Video player freezes and force closes when I try to view a video from my gallery

-Keyboard lights flash on and off randomy in sleep mode when phone is open(definitely common to all dk28s)

-Physical keyboard doesn't register all key presses, so a lot of going back to fill in missing letters and spaces(also common to all ROMs)

anyone have any knowledge or fixes for these issues? The video player bug doesn't seem to always happen for me... kinda comes and goes perhaps. did I maybe uninstall something I shouldn't have?
[Epic 4G Android Development] huytrang90:
Been follow this thread, but have few question before flashing.

1. where can I put back the sprint nav app?

2. does it include swype or market? I'm a bit confused whether those come with the rom?

Sorry if noob ?

(currently on bonsai, just want to try out rom)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
My suggestion would b to go to the aplications in setting locate theprograms having issues and wipe the cache. Did you come from my previous build, if not you should probably wipe your phone and reflash....
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
This does not include swype. It does include the market. These is a swype restore zip in the first few posts. This has google nav which is way better the sprint nav. However if you are still wanting it I can try to post a zip n the morning or you can search the rom threads as many have a sprint apps restore zip.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
ah ok, yes, i wiped my phone and then flashed your 2.0.9... and then flashed 2.1.1 today. like i said, i've had both keyboard issues with all 4 dk28 ROMs that i've tried, and i've read of these problems elsewhere, so i'm kind of waiting for the official froyo release to really hope for fixes for those... but who knows? for all I know, maybe it's bugs like these that they can't seem to work out, and that's what's holding up the froyo release? but as for the video player, i just checked and the cache is empty... plus, i have also had this problem sometimes on other ROMs as well. but when i was on Eclair, i didn't have the keyboard light issue or the video player issue. but anyway, i'm getting tired now, lol.

anyway, thx for everything. this ROM is my fav. of all the froyos i've tried. :cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] Moguledyouth:
Yes, I have tried the swype restore listed on the main page and it does not work for me, I get FC's as soon as I pick it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Hands down this is the best rom for me. Many thanks to ptfdmedic for bringing it to the community. I do have one question. In previous versions I have been unable to restore backups from cwm without everything f/c. Has anyone been able to backup and restore this rom through cwm without f/c problems?
[Epic 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
see if this can help you....

Swype and Sprint Apps (nav included)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Some of the system apps have changed
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Use Mybackuppro ftw.....cw is just way too buggy from my experience.....I only use mybackuppro and never have any issues when restoring.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Thanks...but how do you backup the entire rom using mybackuppro. I use it to backup apps and data.

Wireless Tether

Hello - Please forgive if I'm doing anything wrong here; I'm totally new to this.

First off, Midnight is a great ROM. Very stable; love the theme. Thanks for sharing it with us!

Anyone have success with Wireless Tether working on v2.1.1? It didn't work on 2.0.9 either. Everything works fine, except my phone is not transmitting SSID using Wireless Tether. My phone and computer work great with all other wireless networks, connecting to them. Currently on build 2.1.1. Using Macbook Pro, and another Epic 4G.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
maybe try uninstalling and reinstalling wireless tether? I was getting an error saying 'can't tether', but reinstalling fixed it for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wishkah420:
The swype fix towards the end of the thread seemed to have work. Still getting force close on gmail and email. I replaced the email.apk with root explorer with a dif one and that fixed it. Now I just gotta find a gmail.apk to replace and that will probably fix that too. All in all not a bad rom, still has some kinks to be worked out tho. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Those having a negative experience with the Data Gov Removed you can add it back..

The Data Gov Putter Backer

Updated 2nd Post
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
You don't need to do that. You simply need to clear the cache for each app you are having problems with. Settings---Applications---Manage Applications locate the app and clear the cache......
[Epic 4G Android Development] dbx097:
Wireless Tether

Yogi, thanks for the suggestion. I tried it, but it didn't work. Still not transmitting SSID. Haven't tried Swype yet, but I'm not having any other issues thus far. Email was FCing, but after I cleared data, it's fine. Gmail works fine also.

If anyone has any more suggestions regarding Wireless Tether, it would be much appreciated! Thanks in advance!
[Epic 4G Android Development] om3ga1582:
Wireless tether is working fine for me. It was also working on 2.0.9. wireless tether only works as an ad-hoc connection and that may be your issue. Most other mobile devices such as iPads, iPods, Android devices, kindles, etc...will not be able to tether wireless tether. You would have to use the Sprint MobileAP and pay to have those devices tethered. There may be issues with a Mac connecting to ad-hoc mode. I will try testing that when I get home tonight. So f far I have only tested it with a Win 7 netbook, and out worked just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
regarding wireless tether, try this APK its worked for me with every rom I've tried (but dont worry I'm loyal to this one :D )
[Epic 4G Android Development] souljahp:
the new up date is great!! actually android wifi tether is up to RC2 on their site works for me, there's a modified wpa_supplicant file that you can load into another android device including this phone to recognize ad hoc wifi tether, I have my Epic tether my Huawei S7 tablet.

No talk, or dock

I updated to 2.1.1 but I do not see Talk or the google dock....I had talk before but I did a wipe prior to going from 2.0.9 and 2.1.1 and then using my gmail got all my apps back.

Am I missing something?
[Epic 4G Android Development] megabiteg:
I guess it hasn't been added to the ROM [yet] but grave it from here:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=9965136&postcount=56
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
They are there. However, if you wiped the data cache they will be gone. They were installed to data so you could remove. You can reflash and don't wipe data cach and they will be there...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
I have been working on a little suprise and I almost have it done. No, it's not a new ROM. It is however, the midNIGHT dialer. I really like it. I have 1 image file I need to fix before I release it. I'll finish up tomorrow evening. I'll be at the Children's hosital most of the day again with my 2 year old. When I get home I'll try to finish it and get it to you.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] mrchu001:
Is anyone having market issues? I flashed v2.1.1 over the previous version and now I can't install apps or anything from the market. It will download all the way to 100% then the market will force close when the app tries to install. I might just wipe and reflash later if I can't find a fix.

Otherwise, this is a great rom.

hey, sorry to bother.. love the ROM, just wondering how i can revert to the stock clock/alarm?

@OP

Do you think your going to be integrating ext4 to this ROM ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] capitaltpt:
Flashed this last night and I must say, it's very smooth so far. The only thing I'm missing right now is the stock messaging app. Just not a fan of the replacement. Does anybody know where I can get it? Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] tru2life:
I wiped prior to flash not after I flashed.....I will try it again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] shalea:
My only problem thus far is the Email app keeps FC. The GMail is fine. Everything else is good. My GPS locks w/in 1min w/the Navigation Appl. :D The Maps App takes a little longer (~3min).

Has anyone else experienced the Email problem. The Error message says: "The Application Email (process com.android.email) has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again later." :confused:

Thanks.

UPDATE: I wiped & went back to 2.09. I will wait a litle longer on this update.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
I will be. Right now most people would have a tough time installing ext4. In short order there will probably be a much easier way to install it. I came from a Fascinate and it wasthe same thing. Within a day or so it got simplified to a point most users could do I without problems. I will be looking into it today though. Ext4 made a huge difference on the Fascinate, I mean night and day difference.

Rooting was quite complicated at first but now its a mindless process. EXT4 will follow the same way.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilmikeyv:
First just wanted to join in telling you how smooth and awesome this rom is...thank you for all your hard work. I just tried to install the new dialer though and it seems to be an HTML file, how do I install this? Thanks again!
