Has anyone ever had an issue with Gmail sync not stopping and the sync icon on the top status bar flickering? I has this issue once before with a stock ROM and forgot how I fixed it. If anyone knows, please help cause it's really freaking annoying and is murdering my bettery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smileestylz:

I rarely have this problem on 2.9.3

It had happened twice in the last week, I think as medic said it's dk28 in general

The best way I've gotten around this is to use the deodexed dk28 build that acs put out and adb push the swype.apk that they have included. Very easy fix and out had worked flawless for me

I was hoping it would be that easy. I tried deleting the pairing from the car and the phone and now the car recognizes the phone as "BCRM Bluetooth" instead of "Epic 4G" like it did before. Any ideas anyone?

I know people have mentioned have a screen rotation lag, but my brother and I are both having the opposite problem. The rotation is way too sensitive and is constantly rotating at the slightest movement. Does anyone have a fix?

No, I'm one of the really laggy ones. This happened on every 2.2 I've tried

Is anyone else getting worse GPS performance than usual. I'm using the BYOR version. I'm not getting locks in places that I usually get locks. I didn't go all the way back to stock, get a lock, go to DK28, etc before flashing this ROM but I did do that recently.
[Epic 4G Android Development] knock.back:
I just flashed the build your own and its great! Super snappy and quick. Only issue is that when i press the search button from the home screen it doesn't do anything... I already downloaded google search, is there something else I need?

I've been having severe random reboot problems with this ROM. I've re-installed it 4 times now trying both the BYOR and standard versions and yes I wiped data/cache/dalvik before hand. It seems to reboot most while texting and whenever the alarm clock is supposed to go off. Luckily I don't use it as my primary alarm as instead of going off, it just reboots.

I would just odin to dk28 re-root with cwm3 and flash the rom

Did you flash over another rom or did you do a fresh install from ODIN?

Just ODIN'd back to DK28 stock and reflashed 3.2. Still reboot issues. Happened while texting
[Epic 4G Android Development] jvjidNite:
There has to be something being backed up and restored during the flash process. You said you don't back up your apps so I know its not that. Hmmm I would odin to DK28 ( not extended version) clear my Sd card of any app data or backed up files. Then try flashing the rom again. That's the best I got maybe someone else here has a diff opinion.

Ive had to reinstall this rom twice already. it only happens after my battery dies and i change batteries to a fully charged battery. phone starts up and all i get is forced close on anything i push. i cannot make a phone call or browse apps. is anybody else experiencing this type of problem? i have wiped cache, data, and davik (if thats how you spell it.Please help

I have been having the same issues described with the random reboots and the FC assault. I am on 3.1 and did a fresh flash 4 days ago and had no issues... last night I installed 3 zips... ASOP Lockscreen, Comfort AAF font, and Swype. I have a feeling one of these may be the culprit in my case? Anyone else use any of these? I need to have at least Swype and the lockscreen availble to use on my phone. Maybe we can look into this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] WunderXDA:
Well I have ASOP Locksreen installed (part of the Midnight 3.3 theme) and swype (downloaded from the blog) and not a single issue, so maybe you should concentrate on that Comfort AAF Font
[Epic 4G Android Development] JojoSteez:
I am using this font on 3.1 with no issues. I have the AOSP lockscreen with 3.0 theme. My swype is from a Titanium backup I did from stock, I just restore it every time I flash. No issues here aside from the Wifi bug that doesn't let me turn on wifi sometime. Everyone says that's a DK28 thing though.

email problems with exchange

i am still having very odd problems with the email app. It syncs with my exchange account, but gives me connection errors almost everytime. And it won't sync the current day's emails and most of the previous day. I seem to just get emails from more than 24 hours ago. I have added and removed the account several times. Some times it works but ultimately i will give me the "connection error" message.

I have tried several settings and can't get it to show anything current. Any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
I am having the same issue as well. I don't use exchange but live mail for example doesn't always sync. I really like the galaxy tab email and AOSP email but both are broken. Galaxy Tab won't show hotmail and AOSP has the phantom alerts.

I'll look into it a bit...

So tonight I got hit with the force close attack, I thought it was just my phone but reading through here apparently some others are experiencing it too? It was a bit scary since I was in a tough spot and couldn't even open my contact app to call anyone! Good thing Dolphin Browser works so I was able to get into my contact list through gmail. Anyway I can go about of fixing it, or am I stuck with having to reflash?

Well first off froyo has a built in task killer and secondly most 3rd party task killers do not work properly on froyo....they kill them initially but they restart on their own shortly after...

froyo optimizes code in the background......the trade-off is more memory is taken up.....but apps will launch and run faster in the long run.....

Here is a decent article that explains a little more....

http://androidspin.com/2010/05/25/why-you-dont-need-a-task-killer-app-with-android/
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
The downside to task killers happens when they clear programs out of ram that aren't using any cpu cycles. Or if your task killer is stopping tasks that will start back up again. Remember, a tsk killer uses cpu cycles and is constantly monitoring live programs.

A lot of programs stay in ram without consuming cpu cycles, and this its a good thing if you go to open the app again, since you won't have to consume cycles to load the program back into ram.

[Epic 4G Android Development] dbx097:
*** Firstly, I would like to again, extend my best wishes to you and your family, Rob. I hope everything is going as well as can be for all of you. Also thanks again for all your efforts with the midNIGHT ROM, especially during more difficult times.

I totally get the Task Killer concept, and it's definitely valid. I don't use them. I use RAM Optimizer, which significantly speeds things up without killing apps, as far as I know.

It would be nice if the OS would start with looking at the available RAM and optimize to leave enough free RAM for the OS and apps to run efficiently. I would rather not have a bunch of apps in RAM, rather wait for them to load up, than sacrifice overall system performance. It kinda sux when you want to do things, and the whole system is bogged down by all the apps in RAM. Then I'm waiting for the system to swap data out with VM.

Any further ideas?

[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
I have seen many of you write about that the phone reboots, I am not sure what is happening to me is the same thing you all are saying. Like earlier tonight I was looking at my phones messages and all of sudden my screen goes black and the buttons at the bottom light up and I see the logo of the bootup sequence for the phone but all it did when I got phone back is go from 3g to wifi. The part about the screen going black and seeing the bootup logo has happened to me before but I never seen it go to complete reboot like if I shutdown and turn on see the samsung logo. So is that the same that you all go thru?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jvjidNite:
That's weird.. I don't know why everyone is having problems with the phone rebooting. My phone has never rebooted on its own. I will look into it and will inform you if I find anything.

Thank you but like I said my phone never did a complete reboot just the screen going black and seeing the android logo when you first start up the phone...but my phone doesn't go completely off or a complete reboot
[Epic 4G Android Development] capitaltpt:
While it's not as long as a complete reboot back to the Samsung screen, it does reboot everything on your phone. You have to once again toggle airplane mode and shut down DMA if you want to save your battery life.

Edit: I should add that the phone foreshadows it's about to reboot by doing a single short vibrate and then two short vibrates (at least on mine).
[Epic 4G Android Development] darylrue:
I am just using the luanch-x as a widget to get 5 icons across the bottom rest is default... besides a few widgets to show appts, gv last item, weather.

Again if I open the keyboard it will rotate but only then from the home screen and pages to the left and right for example.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jerbeck24:
I only have one vibration...if I get the extra two, it's usually signaling something is wrong and goes into a bootloop. Is this different than everyone else?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ZapZilla:
Yea this is the exact same problem I have sometimes. It goes unnoticed a lot of times because it reboots so fast, but if you check your battery status you can tell how long its been since last reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bnguyen1983:
The reboot happens to me too. Its random but its fast.

Those using Frozen Emotionless Beast theme will need to use the original version of Swype found on Medic's Android Development blog as the theme is not compatible with the new version of swype used in this ROM. http://lostandtired.com/android-development

OR just use MidNIGHT theme :)

Ok I have a new one for you all. I am still on 3.2 and the same thing happen like before with the screen going black so just as it got to the home screen of my phone I pulled the battery and put back in and forgot about the phone till I got to work. I remembered I had to make a phone call so when I got my phone I got the weirdest message ever.

It said that the UID's were inconsistent and that I needed to format or the data would be unstable. Something along those lines...anyway when I clicked ok it just started fcing all kind of apps, it even gave me the setup menu again so that I had to log back into gmail and all my contacts were gone. So I shut the phone off and did a cache wipe and fixed permissions but still did the same thing and it kept bringing up the setup menu. So I had to back and reinstall 3.2 again.

Now I have been hearing and seeing the rumors of official froyo can the ota be trying to install itself or did I get some kind of viruses or something?
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Installing nowww

EDIT ...Keep gettin FC's on setting about phone
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Anyone have a answer for the setting "about phone" FC's
[Epic 4G Android Development] neuton:
Yes you needto have the google apps installed, the about phone requires google to read certain info and with out the apps it won't open for u

Sorry if this is a newb question but when installed the first time did you use the handcent or the one marked handcent(new)?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
As posted on the blog and here. Please delete the handcent.zip and use the handcent (new).zip

I thought I deleted bit midst have forgotten . Sorry. That is why people are getting fc's. ALSO YOU HAVE TO WIPE X3 PRIOR TO FLASHING.

Guys you HAVE to wipe EVERYTHING x3. I WILL NOT work if you don't. Make sure you read the instructions CAREFULLY.
