What I personally do is use Titanium backup and backup all necessary applications and data. Then after flashing, I install TB and restore the apps and settings i need.

I always seem to not have great performance after doing a nandroid restore of data. TB hasn't failed me yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
I have not once used nand backup,and I thought cmw3 had issues with this... Anyway really dont use backup programs either,I just like to reso everything I guess,since I test so much stuff,I always have diffrent things on my phone... As for GPS,Ill be testing 3 diffrent gps.conf files over the weekend as I have several places to go. So at some point Ill hve an update.zip for the best one I find.
[Epic 4G Android Development] netengineer:
Thanks for the help. I will do that then. I have had issues when restoring with nandroid restore as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] outkast22:
can i just install the nexus s shut down ? if so how? just install from sd? and how do i remove it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] suleman09:
I tried getting msl through connectbot but it wouldn't show my msl

Any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
If you open up the Boot/shutdown.zip on your pc you can remove the boot animation and sound.Open it up,take a look,if it confuses you just let me know.Its sorta self explanatory really.You can remove bootanimation.zip,and look for PowerOn.wav,remove those to files.Then you can flash in CWM3.

Any chance for some screencaps in the OP? to see how the theming and modded apps look?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MedicStuder:
I don't know if it was just my phone or if anyone else has experienced this but I installed update but before that I installing the no journiling. Worked great for a little while then my phone went into. Boot loop that after a battery pull stopped. Then when phone rebooted I couldn't do anything. Everything just kept fc.

So I reinstalled rom this time I didn't install the no journiling. Seems to be ok now. If something changes I will let u know. Just curious if anyone else experienced this or not.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
To get your MSL open adb and type,adb shell getprop ,look for the line that says "[ril.MSL]:

why does my benchmark score lower than yours? I use yuor rom, follow the instruction, but why the score is different with yours?
[Epic 4G Android Development] magoo5289:
Have you installed extra apps after the base install? Your score will go down after this is done.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Well heres the real secret,go into airplane mode,restart.Now kill your running apps,3 are important (omadrm,alarm service and cm_service) now go into task manager and level2 kill twice,and run your test.Repeat before going to the next test. Now show me one person thats gonna be that honest about the numbers.

Also I had setcpu at 1000/1000 performance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] netengineer:
Everything is working great for me. Great ROM.

I do have a question. Can you voice dial threw bluetooth with this ROM?

Thanks in advance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Ill post more up...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Ive never tried,nor have I ever used bluetooth,can anyone test this and post it up?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ungovernable1977:
OK, did all above, including Setcpu, and on smartbench, got about 100 less on both in smartbench... dont really do the others. I installed core apps minus about 3 of them, and the noAOSP.... does this sound about right? Also using stock task manager to do this, do you have another, or is killing em in stock good enough for your results? Just want to make sure I have a solid base install, if I lose a few points w customization, no biggie.. but I had wiped and started all over prior to this... so I want to make sure its clean. Thanks for the great rom! Been toying with it since last night.. oh! one more ???, in the black apps, can I open and delete any I dont want, or is it different?? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Well Ive only got better results by doing everything above,but Im sure I had less apps installed... And the BlackApps.zip works the same way.
[Epic 4G Android Development] diptenkrom:
have not been able to voice dial on any android phone. including this one. i want voice command and text with bluetooth, but it doesn'T WORK.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Is swype not supposed to work? I went back about 4 pages and could not find anything about it not working. And I did flash the core apps, but swype is still not working for me, nor does any of the black themes for some reason. I just converted to ext4 so this is my first rom on that. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] misan0022:
Can someone please explain to me how to add on all the extras once u dowload the rom. How to add al the other zips for it
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wishkah420:
New version runs great! I like how bare it is. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Only really need to download and install the CoreApps.zip,there are some things you may want/need in NonCriticalApps.zip.Once you DL CA.zip you can open this up and delete what you dont want,or add things,or keep it as is and flash via CWM3... I guess Ill change the wording or somthing... Plus Ill be putting up a full description on each .zip soon,just been super busy... And Im working on a minor theme change,Im changing the notification bar from transprent white to 50% transparent black. This makes it the exact same as the lock screen trans %.And the internet backdrop will be grey instead of white,makes it easier to see the time and what ever else may be up there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
What error is Swype putting out,just FCing or what... All above work for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] misan0022:
Thanks. I'm going to try that and see how it works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Just doesn't work. No FC's just not working. It is a pain to have to peck the letters when trying to type......lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Ok I was just informed by blspyro that a lib needs to be removed for Swype to work again.So let me do some more research and Ill try to put this in an update.zip with the minor tweak to framework.

For anyone wanting to try to get Swype to work right now,you can remove libswypecore.so,then reinstall Swype...

Edit, I'm using swype right now with no problems, and I didn't need to delete libswypecore.so for it to work.so I don't know why your having a problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Posting more pics soon also...If anyone has request please PM me,I know Ive forgotten several already,Ive just got alot on my mind,and I dont want to try to find all request in the thread... Ill try to meet all requests by the end of the weekend.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Before I start making a script,was everyone having a problem with Swype,I dont expect you to install it if you dont want it,but if you already installed it and its not working let me know before the end of the night. Ill make an update.zip tonight at work on my lunch break.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
As for the black themed app,Im wondering if they arnt over writing the current installed apps.Ill check into it tonight... Ill install the normall versons,then use the BlackApps.zip to see what happens.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Is it possible that since mine is a new install it isn't working because I didn't upgrade into it? I just tried wiping user/factory reset 3 times, wiped cache 3 times, and wiped dalvic 3 times, then reloaded rom, reloaded core, and reloaded non-critical and had the same thing....swype not working.

Thanks for trying to help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
that shouldnt be the problem,ive never had Swype on here till about 30m ago,and it works 100%. Im looking into this further,so for now dont delete libswypecore.so just yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Thanks....
[Epic 4G Android Development] alexmart:
First of all i love the bareness of this ROM...thank you.

But i do unfortunately have an issue which is driving me insane. Ran through the whole process as described in the first post but when my google account syncs it will not sync my calendar. I have did a full wipe etc 3 times and it still doesn't work. I was getting a the acore process error but i fixed that by fixing my contacts. Has anyone else had this issue? I use my calendar for work and need this to work otherwise i have to switch roms again tonight....i dont want to do that.

Thanks again for the great base to work with.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jayavarman:
Install CalendarProvider.apk from NoN Critical Apps update.zip
[Epic 4G Android Development] diptenkrom:
Swype has worked fine for me on the last 3 builds. Have had no prob with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Maybe its me, is there anything else I need to do other than just flashing the core_apps zip file in cwm3?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Jayavarman:
Go to Settings > Locale and text > uncheck "Samsung keypad"
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
You need CalenderProvider.apk from NoN_Critical.zip

Edit::: I really should read everything before I post,lol,I was behind 2 pages.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
That worked, thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dauss:
I did that manufacturer's reset following the directions from h8uman's link, and the GPS in Google Maps 4.7 & 5.1, I get a lock within a couple seconds. I haven't tested it to see if it maintains a lock while I'm moving(in a car, on the train, etc.), but I'll let you guys know in the morning. I do know that the Navigation in 5.1 does not work. The "searching for GPS" goes away, but then it just hangs on "Getting driving directions" and does nothing. I uninstalled the Google Maps update and tried Navigation in 4.7, and it at least starts to give me directions. Again, I'll test the accuracy tomorrow morning.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Thanks... Let us know. I havnt had the problem with the new maps since v18,so I guess its hit or miss with everybody for some reason or another.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dauss:
So, I tried out Navigation in 4.7 this morning, and it worked. Location accuracy was within a few meters and the navigation worked. I just updated back to 5.1, tried the navigation and it hangs when getting directions. Driving and walking directions do not work.

I was using 5.1 on completely stock Android 2.1 with DK18 and I was able to use Navigation without any problems.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Well I dont think its the gps files I used,I hope the majority agrees.I wish I could say more on how to help. I wish I knew if it was the update for maps thats buggy.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bmasarik:

Frankenstein Forever!

Love the bare-bones idea. As someone who likes to have my phone just the way I want it, this is the rom for me.

I've noticed the undervolt mod definitely kills all data on my phone(no 3g, no wifi, no icons at the top nothing). I don't mind, I get pretty good battery life without it, but I saw some other people ran into the no data problem - it's definitely undervolt doing it.

I also found voice search will fc unless you have the stock browser installed. This is irritating because I use voice search alot, but I use the stock browser never and wish I could leave it out all together.

I would also suggest maybe switching the calendar providers apk over into the core apps. This seems like it would save some forum space since it spawns a post about every other page.

Is there any chance you or anybody here could convert a zip to edify for me? I really like the BIOS style boot animation I found over in the apps section, but I'm not smart enough to convert it myself. I know I have no right to ask, but I see you've done it for a few people in the past.

Love the rom though. I've tried all of them and unless something changes dramatically, I will be sticking with this one.

I wish I could donate, but I don't have any money:(.......what I do have are a particular set of skills:mad:.......so if you like I will hunt down the next person that asks why your rom only comes with 8 apps and beat them unconcious with their cell phone for not bothering to read even the 1st post all the way through.:)

EDIT: Nevermind on the boot animation, I figured it out on my own. Here's the file if anybody wants it.

Sync Contact Failing

Hello and thanks so much for this ROM.

Obviously I dont have alot of experience but after only installing the ROM trying to since my contacts I get an error:

Sorry!

The process android.process.acore has stopped unexpectedly. Please try again.

Even after I install the core apps, I still get the same issue when trying to since the contacts.

I followed the instructions on page one.

Used ODIN to put dk28 modem.

Oneclickroot and CWM3 for EXT4

Once that is good,

Wipe Cache, ADVANCE> davlik cache, and wipe data (each twice, in that order)

Then install the No journal mod

Then install the ROM

Any idea what I am doing wrong?

Thank you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Trizen:
i would recommend flashing back to stock, then wipe/reset your phone 3 times and dalvik wipe 3 times and then reinstall all over. sometimes the start from scratch approach works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sn0w:
Great rom! definitely notice an improvement! Thanks, keep up the good work!
[Epic 4G Android Development] bmasarik:
Standard buttons and lockscreen

Love the rom, it works great for my needs but I have 2 qeustions.

Is there a way to customize the bottem buttons (Phone, Apps, Internet). I would like the Internet button instead be the text message button, is there an easy way to customize this?

2nd, is there a apk to change the lockscreen to the stock Epic one where you can drag the green circle up to unlock or down to the missed call or text message? (It doesnt have to be stock verison if someone designed it different just similar functionality)

Any help would be apprciated
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Update coming soon,and Ill answer all questions above this post in the next 30m,im sorta busy at work and Ive been swamped with emotions lately,sorry for the lack of interest at the moment...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
how soon for the update?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Im changing some things up on the next update,Ill use a diffrent contacts.apk...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Im going back to launcher pro .0.8.3 preinstalled,this will give you those options back... And the file you want for the lockscreen is noAOSP,I need to make this more clear on the .zip info section... Ive got an update coming,but I was hoping for the new LP and FROYO,but Im tired of waiting so its time to move forward on DK28...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Im thinking by Friday night...
[Epic 4G Android Development] twistedj808:
Anyone else having same issues?

This is pretty sick ROM and very minimal which is a plus. I have been testing for about a week and realized a few issues i was having.

*Timestamp in upper left corner of notification bar has occasionally gotten stuck after closing the notification bar and locked up my phone a few occasions. Had to powercycle.

*Several occasions the phone has randomly powercycled and I have had to boot the phone back on. Chances are slim of button mashing due to lock screen and holster

*Mentioned earlier was the Voice search feature FC which was explained by no default browser. THZ ^^

*I deleted your stock launcher because it is very plain with no customization options and downloaded Launcher Pro. This is probably app issue but have gotten some FC

*airplane mode will not turn off after exiting Gentle Alarms night clock function which previously on stock 2.2 it did. Could be App issue.

*QIK front facing camera is rotated 90* This is probably app issue.

Other then these everything seems pretty rock solid.. I have taken note others having issues with gps while driving which I will have to test further.

Thanks for any help anyone can offer and yes I did follow steps for proper setup of ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] pyroburn:
Thanks for the help.

Also am I just blind or is the option for the missed call/email notification led.

Thank you
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Ill be adding LP again...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
I still see it...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Updated... I finished it early... Some Update.zips need to be re-downloaded if they change framework,like black menus,grey menus,both 3g-4g files dependeing on which one you wanted.
[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
Installing didn't restore my apps or google account. No big deal because i backed up everything before just in case, but still, figured i should let you know. It did restore texts and contacts though. And various phone settings.

edit- After rebooting, some other issues appeared. I still had the MMS app, even though its not part of the ROM itself, and it was force closing. Also the setup wizard began. Trying now from a clean install. Was on midnight 3.2
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
do u recommend wiping 3x before flashing? currently running midnight 3.2
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
I do suggest it,but I want to try and get this restore working right so no one has to anymore...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Thanks,Im looking into it now.Restore worked for me the first time I tried it...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:

[Epic 4G Android Development] colema19:
I've noticed if I leave my phone slider open, the keyboard backlight seems to kick one for a second every 5 or seconds. Anyone else getting that?

Also, I'm confused, there's a new release out now, or are you still holding off until Friday?

Thank you!
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
The keyboard issue is known in DK28...And I didnt expect to finish it untill Friday,but I guess the backup script from mammons isnt right,I deleted the script that converts to ext4 but kept the part that does the backup and restore... If I have to Ill write it myself,but I hate writting code and Ill stumble on it fo a day or 2. So Im looking into it again when I get off work...

On another note Ill have some gold to sell and a ps2 in perfect condition,no Im serious,with maybe 20 games 3 controllers 2 of them are wireless.Ill have some pics and gold gram weight soon.Im selling anything I dont need anymore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
I loaded the new version, and for some reason it is staying with 4G on, I tried turning it on then off to get it to stay off, but it stays on. For the most part I am not in 4G coverage, so it is constantly searching, which means it is draining my battery. I am going back to version 24. I also had the contact problem that spitefulrain had.

Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
The 3g icon is replaced with the 4g icon in this ROM, as sort of a theme thing. You can see its "connected" if you're using any data. and "asleep" when you aren't. If you flash a theme over it, it goes back to 3g
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
I will try that again, just seemed like the battery was draining a lot faster. While it was bouncing between sleeping and connected.

I did notice that a second 4g icon would pop up when I turned on the 4g, so that does make sense.

Thanks for the explanation.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Wow,I didnt notice I had the 4g icons in the ROM,Ill check on that when I get to the house,had some things that needed to get done today... You can always flash "grey menus,black text.zip" or " black menus,grey text.zip" those will restore the 3g icons.
[Epic 4G Android Development] icebear8:
Running 2.5 very good rom will be supporting this rom =)

Just don't like the 4g tag staying on (don't have 4g in des moines yet and don't know if we ever will)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Craigmier:
I have been running v24xxx for a few weeks and just about 4 days ago I notice web browsing or any app minus email that uses 3g does not work. I get "an error occured while fetching data (api.read.facebook.com). It works when I turn on 4g however. I wasnt having this problem the first 2 weeks on this ROM. Is it due to an update to the apps I downloaded? Thinking about flashing v25xxx or another Rom, what do you guys think? I get webpage unavailable when trying to browse on 3g.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rckozma:
Thought the same thing. Just do what spitefulrain suggested. Or flash the menus and it goes back to 3g.

I had a weird thing happen today, for no reason the phone rebooted. Other than that it has been running pretty good. Seems like the battery is draining pretty quick, but version 24 did the same thing for a couple of days then it stabilized, so I am going to give this version a couple of days.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Sprint's network is really flakey right now...I went back to stock for 2 days just to verify it wasnt a problem with the RO about a week ago... I was getting delayed mms,some calls didnt go threw... This was also true on the other 2 phones on this line and many friends with Sprint... I went back to stock just to make sure it did the same thing. Now Im not saying that is your problem,but the network is sorta screwed right now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
The ROM will be in a final state on Friday somtime in the afternoon... And since you can just flash it over v25xxx there shouldnt be a problem... Next version is vd25xxx,lol,Im sure some of you get that...
[Epic 4G Android Development] redspeed:
I downloaded this rom yesterday after a clean wipe of everything and had an odd error with the android keyboard displaying a popup error message every 30 seconds or so. I just disabled it and restarted and everything was fine. I also downloaded the grey/black menu fix to change the 3g icons back, and so far everything is running very nicely. I like this rom a lot so far and am using the go launcher instead of launcher pro.

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] gophergun:
Just installed this yesterday, once I flashed the core apps it's been running fantastically. Very speedy, and for the most part just works really well. However, I was wondering if anyone else is having trouble playing videos. When I try to play a video, it only plays the audio with a black screen. Is this a DK28 bug, or is there hope for getting that working?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
OP updated... vd25xxx is now up for DL...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Make sure you have the Divx.apk installed...
[Epic 4G Android Development] icebear8:
so i try to install VD2.5 and it after it says installing update it goes to installation aborted sooo that is where i am stuck at
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Did you clear your cache?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Could someone else try this in the next couple of hours so I could see whats wrong. I have flashed both the base ROM and MyROM twice before upload, and they worked.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Ima try it now ...but does the Nexus screen off animation working in that update zip ???
[Epic 4G Android Development] ecooce:
Yes,tested.
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
I tested and no screen off animation ...other then that rom is smoooveeee
[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
Tried the base rom, working great for me. Only thing is, and this happened with the other v25 also, for the first couple boots its kinda funky. The samsung logo plays twice, then the android animation doesnt play at all. But it works after a few boots. No real complaints though, just a heads up :) Love the ROM.
