I appreciate your hard work PyRo. Hopefully you can get that Swype Beta to work. Let me know if I can do anything else to help you out.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
i am optimizing for the first time tonight hoping to release sometime tomorrow.not looking possible for tonight we will get their sooner or later.dont want to release a crappy v.1. i will put all the system apps into my phone tonight hopefully without flaw and run it over night.

i have a few other things to do tomorrow as well hopefully getting some stuff from the VIPERROM Creator and get a swype working.If beta doesnt work i will go with PTFDmedic's edify version for now.

I have installed for more launch options which will be voted on later so i can get rid of atleast one or add one,we will see.

LauncherPro

Zeam

GO Launcher

and home switcher to switch your main one so you can try them all.

and i already have a few features for v.2 thought of.

I think thats all i have to update about tonight.Hopefully tomorrow it will be released but i won't release until i feel it is good enough.

The rom will come with two apps one for wireless tether and one for wired.

although i didnt get the bootanimation wroking properly today the shutdown animation is smoother than ever.

[Epic 4G Android Development] leatherneck6017:
This is going to sound like I'm being a **** but hold on, you can't even get a boot ani to work and you're going to release a ROM? I held my tongue when I saw in the OP that you were planning on including SetCPU in your "rom"; for one it's a paid app, and for two the only way to benefit from using it is if you are running a custom kernel that supports over/under clocking. Also, you claim you are going to get wired tether up and running? How? No one has been able to do this, again, a kernel issue.

Maybe I'm way off base here but even the way you write suggests that you are not the type of developer (as you have liberally called yourself) that I'll be trusting my $500 Epic with. Don't get your hopes up guys. Then again, if you prove me wrong then bravo.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
You should really learn to read in my first post I clearly say I am still learning however I am learning quick.if you don't want to try my rom nobody is forcing your hand I am working hand in hand currently with the viperrom develepor and ptfdmedic the midnight develeper both whome are extremely helpful.....Instead of hindering progress by making posts like this,why don't you help new developers.

As for wired tether it will be done through an app which is extremely easy to use and does the job well.

For anybody interested i will be using V.1 for the entire day see if anything weird happens,defects,etc. and it will be released tonight.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
BlazeROM V.1 will be released tomorrow have a single file to fix and will test throughout the day.Release time should be around 1600 EST/4:00PM EST.im amazed that with viperrom's lagfix my rom is as fast as it is.seems java fix enabled the .png and .apk file optimizers to do their job properly and they did it well.

Thank god your rom is stable. Otherwise you would have no right to make comments like this. Can you believe the idiots out there. Making comments like you did without an alternative to what they're bashing. Good thing that's not you, right? Imagine how dumb you'd look.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
Im confused by your post
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnyardavid:
It was sarcastic, towards leatherneck. I was highlighting the fact that he only made himself look stupid by bashing your thread and rom.

That's a great argument for not making a ROM thread until you have a ROM to post.
[Epic 4G Android Development] InfDaMarvel:
You really should be doing this for your own enjoyment and ignore any negativity anyone brings. This didn't require a public annoucement.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
It is for my on enjoyment and I'm learning a lot.I also for the most part am ignoring peoples negativity just using it for more fuel to prove them wrong.

As for the public announcement I wasn't sure if I should or shouldn't however in the long run I did it has been a motivating thread and helpful for me thus far.

I will be posting a definite release time shortly.

Release time is 430pm roads are a mess.

Screen Capture...

I haven't seen it in any of the ROMs yet, but I know its standard on the Galaxy S Tabs that if you Hold Back + Power and/or Hold Back + Home/Menu for the phones it'll take a screenshot. I know this can be done in Landscape with the keyboard as I've been doing it since I upgraded, I've also done it on accident in portrait mode, but haven't been able to reproduce on purpose. I think if you could figure out a one button trick to do this, it would make your ROM stand-out more than it already does.

Really??!!

In all fairness then - there's another thread that was started wwwaaaayyy back on November 8, 2010 (and still currently being posted to/updated) that should draw a little of your attention as well.

I enjoy reading about things that are "in the works". Gives me something to look forward to, as well as something to gain knowledge from as people add/implement new techniques and ideas in the process. That being said - fair is fair. "coming soon" is "coming soon", regardless of the development or who the developer is.

@ Pyro - looking forward to what you have to offer. Thanks for the effort.
[Epic 4G Android Development] leatherneck6017:
Are you referring to the cyanogen mod thread? They've had a functioning ROM since that was posted. It's been in pre-beta since I can remember. That thread is to update us on where they're at in development.

[Epic 4G Android Development] chris378:
blspyro have you found any bugs or flaws in ur rom yet? or would you consider it fast and stable?
[Epic 4G Android Development] cjobanion:
No, actually I was refering to the Epi-Nex thread. The "current" cyanogen mod thread started somewhere around Dec 22. The "alpha" thread was before that. The Epi-Nex thread has had screenshots, but no active download link(s).

And, as I said previously, I enjoy those threads from a learning stand point. It is great to see the progress being made in both the cyanogen and tv-out endeavors and I find it amazing what the devs/community are coming together to create in both threads.

My original point was that if the moderator was going to halt this thread until a rom was released - it would have only been fair to do the same elsewhere. Expecially given that that thread (E-N) has been around with no active "functioning" rom (public) for about 2 months now.

And I would much rather risk my $500 phone on a rom based off of - and helped along by - the devs who are giving pyro a "helping hand" than by something that is "pre-beta", regardless of the reputation behind the cyanogen "name". I know that they are building the rom "from the ground up", but that means absolutely nothing to me without something that has everything working in my hand.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 2sslow:
No offence meant here, I know this is your first rom and looks good so far. But you might want to Add some install instructions before you get bombarded.

Also you have the cwm3 thread as well as the ext4 thread linked in the op which is not needed if you do the cwm3 install (it converts to EXT4 when installing CWM3)

Go here:

Easiest 3 step From stock

1 Odin to dk28

2 run cwm install http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=897612

3 install rom

If youre already on dk28 and you need ext4 and cwm3

Seems fast and stable I have one kink that needs fixing in v.2 but nothing big.the zipaligned wireless tether needs to be uninstalled/reinstalled.if your a bluetooth user I have gotten rid of the bluetooth files which I may or may not add a .zip later by peoples request.

[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
I am having an issue where my epic restarts when the power button is pressed to turn screen off...I am really clueless as to what is causing this.is anybody else having the issue?I am thinking one of two things may be causing it.

1.because of the ext4 2.2 froyo edify which we are runing the system files which I deleted are causing issues.

2.launcherpro,zeam,and startup guide thingy do not like being zipaligned...

Will fix this issue tonight.

way to go getting your ROM up! one question tho: how come no Gmail client? lol

otherwise i like the ideas of minimalism and optimization!
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
gmail client is way too bland email client looks better why have 2 when you can have 1 that can do them all?

Thank You and if you get the errors i have been speaking of please let me know.

I am currently working with the ViperROM dev and PTFDmedic the MidnightROM dev to fix my errors hopefully a v 1.2 is released tonight and v.2 will be released sometime next week or early the week after.

I'm not too sure what it is, I haven't tried your ROM yet, but I have had the same problems occur when using Mammon's Bonsai & midNIGHT Rom, Just wrote a thread about it in Q&A Sections called "Safe Mode".... Have you received that yet? Phone reboots then in the bottom left hand corner it said Safe Mode on my wallpaper...

Not sure what's going on.. My guess is EXT4, I odin back to stock and going to try again.
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
yea i think its on my end i am yet to recieve any complaints so i am thinking everything is fine.Ill most likely be odin'ing my phone again tonight to see if that fixes the issue.

Odined my phone and working on V.2
[Epic 4G Android Development] drivenapollo:
Great ROM!!! This is the fastest one I have used on ext4 so far. Really like how minimal it is. Only problem i have had so far is the phone did a quick connection reboot after i got off a phone call. I took off the airplane mode app, so i know it can't be from that. Also i get a FC on the dialer after a call. Not a deal breaker for me. Everything else works awesome! :D

Things I like most:

GB Keyboard

launcher options

Speed

Minimal apps

looking forward to v2

Edit: After a few more calls it resets the connection and FC the phone app everytime. Should i reflash?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sndtubes:
So, were you still planning on releasing v1.2 tonight to fix the problems or are you going to wait till v2.0? I'd really like to try your ROM but........
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
i have decided to bypass v1 and v2 will be released within the week....i have a few problems in v2 to fix however it is much more solid and as quick if not quicker than v1.Sorry for the kinks of v1 hold on few a day or so and v2 should be up.

TO DrivenPollo you could try a reflash however i honestly dont have that problem when running v1 i actually have an entirely different problem of it restarting by itself continuelly.If v1 works for you id just sit tight and wait for v2.

[Epic 4G Android Development] drivenapollo:
I have 2 questions:

1. would an error log help you with the problems we are having?

2. How would i go about getting one from my phone.

Thanks

Oh i also found out that if you accidentally hit home when it tells you android.phone is FCing on you, it made all my widgets not respond. Quick reboot fixed it. Battery life has been great so far for me. If i have data off, and have it in my pocket im getting 1% battery use an hour! :eek::D

Edit: just had that random reboot. Got a message. Phone locked itself and reboot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] drivenapollo:
Hey if I remember correctly from reading another rom the lock screen in this rom caused the reboots from random messages with 2.2. Just thought about it. Hopefully it helps and fixes the problem.

[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
Good to hear.Glad everything is working for you.

PyRo
[Epic 4G Android Development] sndtubes:
Thanks! Just downloaded and everything looks pretty good so far.

I do have one question, though and it's really a general question rather one specific to this ROM. Ever since switching over to Froyo, I've noticed that the available RAM is much less, even after using the memory managers that close the open tasks. After closing tasks on a Eclair ROM, I'd get like 160 to 190 MB free. Now I'm lucky to see 100 MB and it's usually far less. So what gives with this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
I believe this has to do with the apps that are included with the roms more and more apps are being included and the ram is accessing this stuff at all times.

Now regarding my rom,When you load my rom it lays around 168-175 used out of 303 available leaving you with 128-135 left to do as you wish.I am currently working on cutting even more out of my rom to make the space available even more so far with just a few tweaks i have cut another 8mb's out giving you even more to use.

Glad you like BlazeROM v2.

PyRo
[Epic 4G Android Development] sndtubes:
Well, I've been using the ROM all day and I am having some problems. The phone seems to stall now and again for many seconds at a time. Once it rebooted all by itself. Zeam and Launcher Pro both often freeze and widgets will refuse to load and I'll have to reload them. It just isn't too stable for me. Not sure where to go from here......
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
Their is no reason for this to be occurring.Ensure that before you install this rom you are wiping everything 3 times.

Which includes data/system

cache

and advanced->delvik cache.

I ran into a problem earlier as i needed to wipe my battery stats and then loaded into my rom things were crashing i have no idea why.however a simple fix would then be to fully charge your epic and then wipe your battery stats first,wipe your data/system/cache/delvik cache and then flash my rom.

If you are still having issues try wiping data/system/cache/delvik again and reflashing.

I run launcherpro as my primary launcher and have tried the others,i dont have any problems on any of them.

Hope you are able to flash successfully.

PyRo
[Epic 4G Android Development] sndtubes:
Thanks. I did all of the wiping. I always wipe 3X for the data, cache and dalvik cache before installing a ROM.

I have found the problem, however. When I was moving some apps to the SD card with Titanium, I must have accidentally moved Launcher Pro. I didn't mean to. Didn't know I had. That is what was causing the problem. Since I moved it back to the phone, it's been pretty stable. Don't know about Zeam, however. It was crazy, too but was still on the phone. I haven't really tested Zeam after moving LauncherPro back.

Now I have another problem I found last night that I've never seen. I was using the GPS when about every minute or so it would just lose all of the signal and a minute or so later would restart. It did this over and over again even after 2 reboots. When the GPS was locked and working, it had good signals and accuracy (3 to 5 feet). My GPS has always worked ok no matter what ROM I was using. Have you tested your GPS?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
I have discussed this issue with Btthomas the ViperROM maker and we have both agreed you have broken your gps through a dk28 bug.In order to fix this i am including a .zip for you to download and install odin/ext4 i have included a readme text file.follow that directly and you should be set.

Odin-EXT4 i take no credit for this work, thanks goes to the publishers and creators of DK28 odin,and CWM3.

I think I did something wrong...and I hope someone can help. I NEED Swype...so I downloaded the edify version and flashed it in CMW. Now, not only does swype not work (force closes when I chose it), but my phone also reboots whenever it locks. So, I get to use my phone while it's on...but when it locks, it vibrates once...then twice....then the boot animation comes up.

Please let me know what I did wrong!

Thank you.

i do apologize about that the swype edify which i include on the 2nd post has been edited. it turns out a file which i removed so that swype beta would work properly needs to be their for the swype edify. it is now fixed in this new swype edify.zip simply reflash and you should be set.

Hi, i flashed your rom last night and am finding it pretty cool! The battery life seems amazing so far, and i like the different apps you included.

The things i am wondering about are, is the search button disabled in your rom? It's not bringing up google search when i press it(i hope i didn't break that button on my phone). Also, i can't find a Google search widget for my home screen in Launcher Pro.... it gives a list of widgets i'm unfamiliar with..... is there a way i can flash the Google search widget? Been searching and haven't found it yet.

Anyway, the main thing is i like your rom a lot so far! Great job

Edit: i forgot, but late last night i did actually find an apk for a black google search widget, but it wouldn't install with Astro File manager, it just said application not installed. any advice? thx!

edit #2: duhh... i just got the search widget from the android market.
[Epic 4G Android Development] formula84:
Just a bit confused is the version in the ZIP the beta or is it the stock dk28? Also if the zip is stock do we flash the zip and then remove the apk with sdx remover then install the swype beta installer?
[Epic 4G Android Development] blspyro:
If you want swype beta i have removed the file that needed removing so that it will work properly.The .zip which is included for swype is the swype edify on PTFDMedic's Lost & tired website with an included lib file which needed to be removed so that the beta would work.If you have installed the swype edify version u will need to remove libswypecore and the .apk if not you should be able to just install beta.

As for the google search widget it is their....i will probably be including the black version in the next release.
