You saying flashing the dk28 modem will work if flashed over a di18 modem and run on 2.1? And give us the benefit of better gps with it?
[Epic 4G General] BeerChameleon:
+1 yes if i upgrade my modem will it give me better gps or improvements on my signal?
[Epic 4G General] fkhaten:
i dont think so now that im using ext4
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
+1 to the op. I've run bonsai, quantum, nebula, and midnight and GPS has never worked for me on any of those. The keyboard would miss key hits, force closes here and there, I got ui lag with all dk28 roms even with ext4. I suggest odining back to 2.1 and get acs rom. I'm running shuriken with the extreme kernel. @ 1.3ghz this thing is faster than any of the dk28 roms I've tried. It just feels stable while feeling faster alltogether. The app pile up would pop up instantly on the first or second try on dk28. But soon after doing other things I'd get a wretched lag. Acs has piled up in a snap every time. ACS 2.1 ftw!
[Epic 4G General] MaxPatlick:
I never had any problems with GPS, stability or speed on either 2.1 or 2.2 but flash only works in 2.2 so I'm sticking with 2.2 because I like watching porn on my phone :]

running quadrant on my current setup always shows a higher score than what I presume is the average for a stock epic on 2.1 so.. *shrug* good enough for me..

Only thing that doesn't work quite right on my phone is the magnetic compass.. that **** is buggy, but I can deal with no compass in exchange for porn :D
[Epic 4G General] hayabusa1300cc:
I been wanting to go back to 2.1

Now after reading this thread, I just may. But damn I will miss the 2.2 apps
[Epic 4G General] InfDaMarvel:
2.1 + Syndicate Rom for me until Cyanogen mod releases something with most/more functionality or until Samsung/sprint release a official 2.2
[Epic 4G General] RushAOZ:
@maxpatlic

Yea for some odd reason my favorite porn site never worked on 2.1 stock. It does both html5 and flash. So yea flashed to 2.2 and it worked sweet. Now I flashed back to 2.1 acs and the same website works now... dunno how but the videos open up in video player. Its actually better than flash lmao
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
Wow it's like deja vu, our minds working alike. Been on mostly Nebula Froyo ROMS for a while (great dev) and just finally got tired of the whole rigmarole performance of the 2.2 leak in general and the breaking of GPS.

Went back to official 2.1 a few days ago and it's like night and day. I completely forgot how stable and so much more immensely responsive 2.1 was and much better battery life as well. What pushed me back was the fact that i got a 3500mah battery on eBay and on 2.2 battery was constantly draining no matter what i did. Yesterday, on 2.1, after 15 hrs i was still at 76%, without a change in my usage patterns. GPS works like it's supposed to with Aura/Sygic and CoPilot.

Until we get an OFFICIAL 2.2 Froyo from Samsung/Sprint for the Epic, i'm done with the DK28 leak or any other leak. Not worth it.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
That's where I was too, just about 15 days after DK28. I can't do without working GPS and I really didn't feel like screwing around with the fixes to patch it up
[Epic 4G General] rocket321:
I also found DI18 to be very fast and solid. Like the earlier poster I agree that the way flash/youtube is handled on DI18 is better than the froyo implementation except in cases where mobile video is not available.
[Epic 4G General] hazridi:
I don't understand how 2.1 is even an option for you folks. Froyo is amazing and 2.2 is bug free for me.

I had to reflash to fix the gps but now it works great and the 2.2 apps are spectacular, maps is 10x better and worth the upgrade alone, let alone flash and hulu or the major performance and battery life upgrades. I get absolute lyno UI lag and everything is smooth as butter, I'm not even running ext4. Also, I can actually cut and paste. I don't see how Sprint could produce a rom that works better than what I have now. I certainly do not miss sprint's bloated apps. I use sprint vrs.only.
[Epic 4G General] rickbuck:
I'm going to be happy with either ... if they are stable..

When I went to 2.2.. I found a lot to be unhappy with.. Loved the flash and a few other things... But let's face it.. it's buggy.

I've always been unhappy with battery life on the Epic. I was constantly testing, killing apps, stopping services, etc.. Back and forth for hours.. I read all the tips, tried everything I could to get a full day out of the phone.. But no luck.. Lots and lots of disappointments and wasted hours mickey-mousing with my phone..

Then I tried that airplane mode toggle again.. This time, I left it alone... all day and night.. In prior experiments, I'd always be killing this or that and rebooting every so often, trying to find the magic formula to long battery life..

And it friggin worked... That airplane mode toggle on bootup did the trick for me.. I've got a Tasker profile handling it now in the background.. 2.1 is easily doing 18 -30 hours for me with moderate usage. Now that I've got it running well, I'm not so anxious about Froyo ... I love the Epic, in stable form.. and now, I got it that way...

So, I'll just wait patiently for Froyo.. Eclair is cool with me
[Epic 4G General] Toast95135:
Just out of curiosity, those of you back on 2.1 how much better does it run gaming wise (with oc kernel). So far DK28 has been flawless for me, the only reason I would consider going back to di18 8 is if I could get Dungeon Defenders to run better. It plays pretty good until there's a lot going on and it lags reallyyy bad.
[Epic 4G General] aleph23:
+1

I've wanted to go back for speed but the new apps have kept me on froyo...
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
I have two Epic's. One running Bonsai 1.1.3, ext4, and no journaling. The other is bone stock di18. My stock di18 Epic runs pretty much all games better than the one with heavily modded beta Froyo. I get a lot of glitching and semi freezing while playing Need for Speed and Asphalt on the Froyo Epic. Aside from gaming, the Froyo Epic performs fine.
[Epic 4G General] micahrodriguez7:
sd card not mounting in CMD 3.0

when i tried to ext4 format my card it wouldnt mount in ext4 does anyone no y i tried everything i know had to stick with froyo stock cant flash any roms in CMD or ROM MANAGER never works..only way i got DK28 on my phone was odin... so i like 2.2 but want a custom rom does anyone know any good roms that i can use in ODIN .tar or .md5 files????? :D
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
I'm convinced the graphics drivers are not tweaked properly in the beta builds we have so far. In addition to the poor game performance, graphics benchmarks are all 10-15 fps lower than di18 ROM's.
[Epic 4G General] Toast95135:
Interesting. I never ran a custom rom or kernel bc I was too afraid to mod back then lol. I was wondering why sometimes gameplay would lag when it should have been able to handle it. If I go back I'm realy gonna miss flash, new youtube (flashable tho) and working gps. Btw, was it confirmed that we could flash the new modem from dk28 for improved gps performance?
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
I've heard others say it works fine. I haven't tried it myself for an extended period of time.
[Epic 4G General] 1NfE5T:
I'm going back to DI18 within the next few hours, running Nebula newest rom(flying jets)with EXT 4. Although it is very zippy, I haven't had any fc issues. Without a source and/or kernel, I do miss my battery life. Any froyo rom I tried just doesn't cut it battery wise, from juice defender, to light use....I get crappy battery life. I'm going stick with DI18 with either EE or a ACS rom with a nice custom kernel.
[Epic 4G General] Toast95135:
I went back to 2.1 (syndicate w/xtreme kernel) and while I miss some things from froyo I have to say wow its fast. It feels about the same as dk28 with ext4 (which never gave me lag problems) but games are much, much smoother. Dungeon Defenders is reallyyyy smooth compared to running it on dk28, night and day.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:

You cant do it dynamically within ADW EX, but you can load different themes to be able to change the background of the dock.

You can change it in ADW Settings/UI Settings/Main Dock/Dock Background/Custom

[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j.smith:
On the stock Rogers 2.1.1 Android, I was able to install the official Facebook app, configure it and it would ask me if I wanted to synchronize my existing contacts (I would select to sync only those that were already on my phone) and everything worked rather peachy... it would auto link up my Facebook contacts with my Google/Phone contacts all by itself.

I just today upgraded to Android 2.2 (via Kies... (un)official Rogers ROM) and installed the Facebook app again and it never asked me to sync any contacts at all. I went to accounts and tried to add an account (specifically the Facebook app choice, since there is 2) and it does nothing.

I figured it was some slight incompatibility with the app, so I then tried the built-in Facebook account type with the phone - it works and syncs contacts, but it asks me to pick every single contact I want and on top of that, it doesn't seem to do a very good job of linking contacts at all.

I'm wondering, this experience I've had with 2.2, is this intended; is this the way it should be (ie, kinda crappy compared to my 2.1 experience)?
[Captivate Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] leoingle:
what do you mean by "so I then tried the built-in Facebook account type with the phone"? i am having problems also. i'm using the Cognition ROM which was ported from the Rogers 2.2 release, so i am sure we are in the same boat. everything i have tried hasnt worked.

I tried optimizimg my apk files to a smaller size,the apk's did get smaller but the overall speed of my rom got slower and it started getting some fc's for some apps.

Point that im trying make is that doing too much optimization will hurt the overall performance speed-from my expirience,but different methods can have different results.Try none optimized version vs optimized version and see for youself which is faster,just givin you heads up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MasterQu:
Let me know when your ready and I'll put your rom though the paces.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
I had plans to get rid of swype to free up more room however for now it will stay as i highly love the black swype keyboard.As for the undervolt i am iffy in touching his stuff as he claims EXT4 support however edify support is not their.Ill ask him though.

I will look into it but don't expect it right away i am new to this and hope to dig further and further in as i go.

this rom is EXT4/Edify

I was thinking about changing however astro is simple enough for now.Probably will change later however unless things change it won't be changed to root explorer.

I am still learning what i want to do optimization wise,ive got a procedure set for all image files however i am not sure about .apk/ app/system files as of yet if you could give me insight on this through pm that would be great.

Thank you PTFDMedic your rom will be serving as my starting base.Thanks for giving me support and a great rom to encourage me to make my own.

Thanks for the support thus far.I will get V.1 Up as soon as possible.

He cannot include "Paid" apps in his rom, unless the maker of the app said it was cool...
[Epic 4G Android Development] lbcoach3347:
It should be in your system/app/touchwiz30launcher.apk

[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
i have removed touchwiz and it is going to be a launcherpro rom.i am hoping to release this sometime tonight however i am running into a few problems so we will see,mainly my bootanimation is not working and should be.

in response to BTThomas my rom is EXT4/EDIFY your rom only is EXT4 until your rom and .zips are edify compatible they won't install properly.

Perhaps if you don't know how you could message PTFDMedic as he seems to know it from the back of his hand and has done several.Thank you however for allowing me to use your .zips,etc when they are all edify complaint.

No worries... ill pm you the edify script... they're easy to write up. Check in a while cuz I'm at work now.

Yessir I am including several apps which will all be available to uninstall I will be including fast uninstaller as well too make it easy to do so from he getgo.I may look into having a few options thinking probably zeam,go,and launcherpro we will see.

For those interested in wired tethering I think I've found a few options to do this ill try them out when I get home.

As for swpe beta unless somebody has the .apk handy I will be including the swype ptfdmedic has posted on his website.as I have tried to find the beta .apk after I installed it but its nowhere to be found.

*edit* in responce to the undervolt does it hinder performance or make it better? If it hinders ill simply release a fast rom and battery saver rom.wish their was an overvolt as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BThomas22x:
Yes, performance is hindered slightly, and ill see what I can do about overclocking... not sure if a script can do anything.

Trust me... you don't want an overvolt lol
