just installed last night --- Great ROM so far... only small issue I have is gmail... since it's so black... it's hard to distinguish read from unread email. Is there anyway to adjust the read emails so it's easier to tell? Thanks for your work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
This is part of the problem when doing any thing BLACKED OUT,I will try and figure it out...Im also going to bring back black menus in the system when I figure out how to get 2 diffrent text colors.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mionky:
Just wanted to say I love this ROM. I love how fast it is. Keep up the good work. Can't wait to see what else you have in store. :)

get rid of bootanimation sound?

PLEASE help me get rid of the horrible boot sound.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Ill lower the sound of the boot sound,is that going to be better,or do you not like it at all...I do know it is to loud.Next ROM will be more polished,boot ani will be trimmed down due to EXT4 booting so fast,it even cuts the sound short sometimes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dae14:
i have wiped and redowloaded the rom several times but the same thing keeps happening....everything boots ok but then the phone is constantly going in and out of airplane mode and i get no service. any ideas? any help would be appreciated :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] corn13read:
It's bad. I'd like two versions or instructions on how to disable sound.

1 with lower sound 1 with no sound.

Also please look into my 3g issues. Low 3g signal it drops off and doesn't come back until i get closer to better 3g.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2sslow:
I could be wrong here but it seems to me your 3g problem is more likely a problem w/ your modem flash, Not w/ this rom.

Try flashing the modem w/ odin again and reflash the rom.

48hrs and still no issues, cant wait to see whats next. This rom is by far the fastest ive tried. Ive tried most btw.

questions for ya

ecooce,

had time to check out your ROM and noticed a minor color issue: when you click on the phone (dialer) icon.... at the top of screen there are 4 choices (keypad, logs, favorites, and contacts). The last one (contacts) is blackened out unlike the other 3 icons which are somewhat gray. Not sure if you noticed this.

On a side note.... I read a reply by you somewhere where you said that there is an EA## froyo build .... do you have any inside info on this like when you think it's coming out? I sure hope Sprint or Samsung isn't delaying our release due to Sprint ID crap stuff.

And if my vote is worth anything... .I like the hot cheerleaders.... that wallpaper is **** hot!

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] jordan2333:
This Rom is one the best out there.It's really fast and by far the best battery life i've gotten out any Rom so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Thanks for all the info everyone....The contacts menu is black because it has a sub-menu,I will try to change this...I will be working on the ROM all day tomorrow,Im gonna polish it up more add some things and test every addition....The 3g proplem some people are having is completly unknown to me,I havnt had a problem with any of my builds 1-17c,so Im also going to say its a modem flash problem,try reflashing DK28 modem in Odin...I will be back with an update tomorrow.I want this to be the last update before the official 2.2.1 comes out...EA11,I cant say what has been added,or when it will come out,but will have a date soon.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2sslow:
You posted that EA11 # a month ago in another thread! Do you have some inside info we are not privy to?

Sounds to me like you work for sprint or samsung or the like. I hope you are right, Im really looking forward to the official 2.2.x.xx.x so we can get to really making this thing scream.

Great work btw.

[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:

Im sorry if this does not help,but it works for 99% of the people running this ROM,and has never been a problem for me...I really want to help you be satisfied with the ROM,so if after the uninstall and it dosnt work let me know...I will be coming out with an updated ROM today if everything goes as planned,Saturday at the latest.

Where's the Market App?

Just installed the latest update... where's the Market App? I don't see it. "Confused".. :)

Update: Either I had a bad burn of the ROM (using version "C").... or the market App is missing... I just installed version "B" and it's just fine... market app is there. Either way.... so far so good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Omega740:
Hello,

I've read around extensively and have found your ROM to be the first that I am going to try for my epic. I'm not sure if this is your problem, but I wanted to voice the issues I am having before I get to installing your ROM. From stock, I used the One Click Root Method. I believe this method provides users with a DI18 Rom. I tested it out to see if the Green CW3 was functioning. It was. Because I saw that your Rom uses DK28, I decided to flash the phone with the new DK28 paired with Odin. I followed the guide from the Wiki. The flash was ok except for the fact that everything was set to factory reset(not surprised there) and CW3 was missing from recovery mode. Instead, the stock Samsung Blue menu was their. Hence, I was not able to move on and load your ROM.

If this is the wrong section to post this, please let me know and I will move it to the appropriate thread.

Thanks,

Omega740
[Epic 4G Android Development] Nvoltz:
I put my money where my mouth is; I will try to spread the news among “epic” friends that this is a solid rom that can be taken serious for everyday use and not just a tinkering fun project in the garage. I only assumed that you had help. You know your craft well and I challenge everyone to compare the potpourri of complaints in other ROMS from the so called “team of developers” to that of this forum. Hats off to you sir……
[Epic 4G Android Development] mionky:
Hey ecooce, I'm also here in GA. Luckily I have AWD and was able to make it to work. I just wanted to say thank you for your hard work. I love this ROM the most. It's fast and great for everyday use. Thanks. :)

checkerboards

​

Anyone else still experiencing checkerboarding in the browser? I assumed this would have been fixed since a few other ROMs including Quantum Rom fixed this along time ago.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AFREaKA.Man:
No checkerboarding for me...

Cobradude,

I don't, nor have ever had, any checkerboardingTt, but then again, I use either dolphin mini or dolphin hd as my browsers. If you like the stock Chrome browser, try Dolphin Mini (found in market), I think you'll find it to be a better and slightly faster browser.

And there is solution to my problem :). Found that I wasn't using CWM3, but the stock 2.5somthing that came w/ the one click root. I searched the forums for CW3 and came across this.

So after I Odin'ed back to the DK28, I ran the One click CW3 Upgrade. Rebooted into CWM3 and formatted all the necessaries (data factory reset,cache,dalviccache). And ran the .zip from "install zip from sd card".

Everything worked swimmingly and I am anxious to give you some feedback on this esteemed ROM.

[Epic 4G Android Development] AFREaKA.Man:
ecooce,

Ah, okay, that makes perfect sense... but actually, I'm really diggin' the launcher pro plus (especially with the 3D app list, 6 icons on the launcher tray, and ability to add an additional row) so I'll just continue to use the lpp facebook widget instead of samsung's feeds and updates--it's not as good, but good enough.

I am very happy to have been able to send in a donation, as I can't thank you enough for all your hard work and providing us with the best Rom out to date (and there's some other nice Roms out there).

Thanks again,

You can actually get the full DK28.zip here,this is the full ROM,you can then install CWM3 after that file is flashed in CWM ?.???.Then after you are converted to EXT4 you can install the ROM through CWM3.

soft music with blue notification lights

I am getting a soft musical tune 15 seconds when something comes on that triggers my blue notification light like email or text any idea what and where that is? Not saying I don't like it, the Rom is great its just irritating not knowing where it is
[Epic 4G Android Development] BigBrotherMotown:
Swype?

Does this rom have SWYPE yet?

I thought I read somewhere that you REMOVED it and will be putting it back with an update.zip

I absolutely cannot live without swype......when will it be coming out?

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] AFREaKA.Man:
He has an update zip for Swype on the second post on page 1. To install, download the zip file to your SD card and then flash that file using CWM3. The phone will reboot, and viola, you have Swype back. Just need to select it in your settings or long press in the text box of a message, email, google search, ect. and click input method...select Swype and you're good to go.

[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
That is perplexing,because I dont have any mod in the ROM that would enable the blue LED for notifications... I would say maybe you have a program installed that does this,Handcent maybe. If this persist let me know,I will look into it. Which version of the ROM are you using.

@anyone that is looking for a program that is not installed by default,please see the second post of this thread,if you still cant find somthing you want,let me know; I will be glad to provide you a download link to any thing missing.Thanks again for all comments and feed back.
[Nexus S General] littlesthobo:
I'm new to Android and had to experiment a little to get this to work so I thought i'd share what I've found.

You can add ringtones and notifications to these Internal Storage folders (do we still call it sd?)

sd/Media/Ringtones/

sd/Media/Notifications/

The music app will not find them if you use this file structure.

To prevent anything else from appearing put a .nomedia file (plenty of info on this on the forums) into folder with the offending files, this will also affect all subfolders. This will also prevent files appearing on the Media app too.

It seems actual music files can go in several places but I just put them in sd/music for simplicity.

:EDIT:

Alarms can go into:

sd/media/Alarms

Problem writing /system/etc/hosts

Hi forum,

I have searched around the forum for advice regarding copying my own hosts file to my wildfire, but it wont work. I have used adb to transfer the file from computer, and used the terminal on the phone by directly getting it from the internet.

On the terminal i followed:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=3719090&postcount=6

where i get the error "cant open 'hosts' : Out of mermory"

and via the adb where i followed:

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=6697366&postcount=2

where it gives the same error.

It might be me missing out on something but i cant figure out what i am doing wrong.

I am running CyanogenMod 6.1 stable 12/12-2010.

I hope someone have the time and help me figure this out.

Thanks in advance

[Wildfire General] UtmostMick0:
Lolz , u were sooo close !!!!!

Reboot into Recovery , goto partitions menu and mount /system partition then use adb from ur computer

adb remount

adb push hosts /system/etc/hosts

adb reboot

should fix it (i recommend that you search for the new hosts file from adfree adblocker , also in the new Wildpuzzle Rom if your comfortable moveing files between roms before flashing)

Hope this helps

PS. Until AlphaRev comes out we dont have Read/write Access to the /system partition while the phone is running :-( (Google S-ON HTC Devices)
[Wildfire General] Omorashi:
Splendid :D

Ok thanks, it works. I knew it was some sort of permission that was needed, which made me crazy. (I am new in this android world)

I just made it into a batch file, so it is is easy to update the hosts file as new comes along. This is also to make it easier for the next that comes along with my problem. It requires adb ofcourse.

By a local hosts file (can probably be made more user friendly, but it works for me):

@ echo off
echo Updating hosts file:
echo You need to have added the adb path to Environment variables,
echo Or placed this batch file in the directory with adb.
echo The hosts file should be in the same directory as this file.
echo After unpause are the phone started in recovery:
pause
adb reboot recovery
echo Waiting for device to reboot into recovery
echo After it is done rebooting do the following:
echo Go to partitions menu
echo Mount system (first option)
echo Unpause and the file gets overwritten:
pause
adb remount
adb push hosts /system/etc/hosts
echo Check if it is done correctly (the transfer).
adb reboot
pause

And by the way i used the updated hosts file on "external website" that was recommended in another thread i found about updating hosts file on this forum. (Cant post the direct link)

I have a linksys wifi N router at home and my laptop connects at around 144mbps, however my phone only connects at around 72mbps..

Also my laptop always sits on my coffee table which is about 15' from my router (through one wall) and has excellent signal. But my phone usually only has good signal in the same spot. It only usually lights up like two of the wifi indicators.

Does everyone else have this issue? Are the wifi chips just not strong in the phone or what?
[Samsung Mesmerize] imyp:
My laptop is currently saying that it is recieving at 54mbps, my mesmerize is showing the same speed. Although my laptop is stating that I have excellent strength, and my phone is showing fair strength. I think the wifi is only so-so in this phone, I rooted last night and just got wifi tethering going. With the phone broadcasting a hostspot next to the laptop it only gave a fair signal strength. I'm not sure if the strength of a wifi hotspot has anything to do with the recieving end of the signal though.
