You know........this kind of comment really frustrates me. You want everything your way and on your terms. If that's what your expecting then learn to build your own ROMS. These guys deserve your respect and gratitude. If they want you redirected to another site to download then so be it. IT'S FREE. There are many reasons for doing this. But your lack of respect is part of the problem with this community. I can tell you that as developers we literally spend DAYS putting these things together to make your life better only to have people like you just complain. If you can't take 5 minutes out of your busy life to click a few times and wait for a download then stay stock. Your comments are not appreciated and counter productive. Please think before you post.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
This is the final build. The OTA just doesn't support EB13 to EC05. That's the only difference.
[Epic 4G Android Development] kbnguy:
Really man? you're missing out on EC05 and best custom rom (as of today).

gmail issue has been reported a while back... go to setting>application>gmail then clear data. Then update all gApps from market.

Good luck
[Epic 4G Android Development] art3mis-nyc:
Really? MY lack of respect is why the thread got locked and a mod removed the links because it was against forum policy? I honestly don't care if it takes days or weeks. You come to a forum and then shuffle people off to a different place to sign up on your own site to get it? What ever happened to supporting the forum you're in.

Your ignorance of the forum rules, the seeming thought that it's alright to branch off and use thier forum to "support" the rom all the while you're getting free advertising from them for the project is astounding.

I and a lot of other come here because it's all in one spot, and regardless of the devs time and energy that doesnt mean that they should link and REQUIRE a signup on a different site to get something that is GPL. What pray tell makes you think you're special?

And yes heaven forbid i come to a forum and see a posting for a rom and think i'll be able to red all about it ON THE SITE IM ON instead of going somewhere else.

They did have my respect and gratitude, you dont mind you but mammon and randy do, which is why i don't understand why they've taken the hero_over route of trying to move thier "clients" away from the place that gave them and made them what they are.

**This is to pfmedic and not mammon who i assume isn't as narrow minded and jumpy and at least understands the argument presented.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Not a good thing to quote the forum rules as an argument.........you best go through and read a ton before saying the rules are enforced as a whole....lol....hence your post here is a personal attack....that is a broken rule....so don't be hypocritical when trying to substantiate your argument...

Oh and Rob not having "art3mis-nyc" respect....hold the presses..........please Rob stop making roms until you have this respect....hahaha! Didnt know that your respect was the almighty here at xda.....lmao

BTW seriously read the rules....at least 5-10 are broken daily....
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
hero_over.....really? I'm not narrow minded at all. This isn't Burger King, it's not your way right away. That's my point. People should just be grateful to have something instead of finding something to complain about. That was my point. Not narrow minded at all, really. What people often forget is that XDA does not provide a hosting service for these ROM's. The developer has to provide that on their own. If a free site like multiupload or something like that is used then people complain. Hosting costs money and the amount of bandwidth used for these downloads is INSANE. If a developer is having the out of pocket expense then we should help support that if we want what they are developing. Hero_over was a completely different animal and that fact that you compared them to him is really sad and disrespectful. I honestly don't remember asking for your respect but I can live without it. These are just phones....and it's not the end of the world. Believe me there are bigger things to worry about then getting the ROM off site.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BigJPNut:
Wow....I have tried a lot of roms and themes in the past 5 months and Ill have to say this one is near perfect. Not one single hickup. I put it together with the Giger theme and this thing is smooth as butter. I'm blown away by the amout of detail in the theme. These dev's are doing an awsome job!
[Epic 4G Android Development] art3mis-nyc:
Well now you know, and it wasnt a personal attack it was an honest question because i simply dont understand why almost every dev here feels the need to make another site to schill thier wares on, while snubbing XDA.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Stating someone is ignorant and you lack respect for that person is a personal attack.....not needed....outside of that....yes you were supporting an opinion...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Alright look. Let's take this down a notch and be honest. XDA especially the Epic community can be......fickle..to work with. SO MANY people complain about EVERYTHING. If a developer has a secondary site so what. You don't have to pay for anything what does it matter. It's not about snubbing their noses at XDA it about any number of things. I personally have my own reasons for redirecting and if people don't like then don't use my ROM. XDA simply doesn't provide the flexibility of a site hosted by the developer. I'm not saying XDA is a problem cause it's not. It's just that everyone has their reasons and trust me, no one is making a living off of making these ROMS. We have little control over our threads and mods have to step in to clean things up. Sometimes it just allows them to better provide for the user. That's all.. People just don't seem to have

a good understanding of how difficult it is to develop, release and support a ROM all while listening to constant complaints...... Look for my part in this squabble I apologize. Their is just so much behind the scenes thing that go into providing these things. The developers do all of this in their own time and on their own dime.

I'd be happy to continue the discussion but let's do that here http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1002595 and not do this in the bonsai thread. I think you have valid concerns and you should share them in the above thread. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Please stop the bickering or this thread will be closed .....again.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] jpeepers:
Well I also didn't like the look and feel of it (the new style of touchwiz and the layout of the app screens. personal preference). I went back to Syndicate ROM which works very well for me.

I did a search for the gmail issue but didn't find anything so I just went back. Not a big deal, my phone is still much better then stock so I'm good.

[Epic 4G Android Development] incisivekeith:
Is someone having an issue with Skype's keys not vibrating, while on a call? The keys do not sound the "tapping" sound, too, while I am on a call. I don't recall this happening on DI18 or EB13. Any thoughts? Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] worldwidepmp:
I have to chime in and comment on how much I love this ROM! My battery life has never been better.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Heelfan71:
any way to get stock TW launcher on this rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Pretty much most apps that start fc'ing can be fixed by clearing the data in that app. It might not have been mentioned here about the gmail fc but I read it a bunch of times on Bonsai's website.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Since installing EC05 modem and Bonsai 4.0.0 I seem to have less signal and getting higher TWS numbers. Thoughts on whether I should try reflashing the modem or if Sprint is having tower issues in my area? Thanks.

Grateful to all DEVs for their hard work with no pay
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
My TWS has been at 0% for the most part, but I live in an area that has pretty good Sprint service.
[Epic 4G Android Development] oferico1:
Whats the best way to update the modem to EC05? I am running EB13 with Bonsai4All v4.0.0 . I love this ROM but I don't want to mess up something and have to ODIN back to stock.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Just Odin the modem only....only check auto reboot and place the file in the pda slot...done...

You dont need the pit file for a modem only flash...

Some have reported better dl speeds, increased bars, etc...
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Yup. Just reinstall TWlauncher30.apk.

Here it is:
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
No, it's not necessary. The instruction is there in case the user extracts the modem.bin instead of dropping the tar in. It makes it noob proof.

CIQ short for "Carrier Interrupting Quickness"

Wow usb tether suspicions confirmed...I am now getting 4.5mb/1mb on Bonzai 4.0 instead of 1mb/100kb w/CIQ on stock eb13 rom ebo5 modem rooted, thanks for the prodding to go unjournaled!!! DOPE! Will be donating on the website!!! :D Great Work !!! Thanks a Million TerraFlops!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] vizionforever:
Maybe it does not like your stuff? :p Try uninstalling and reinstalling youtube app? Or try diff settings on video? Had force closes on facebook and reinstall seemed to work...
[Epic 4G Android Development] madocs:
Crikey! So Odin is hanging on me when I try to flash the EC05 modem. It looks to be @100%, but I never get the PASS! Battery pull f's things up of course.

Odin back to stock, re-root with CM 3.x install, then to EB13, then tried again with the same result.

Where am I going wrong here?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Try putting it in PDA.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
And use the Victory pit that comes with Odin.
[Epic 4G Android Development] supercluver:
No dice. Really frustrating. Well hopefully 4.0.1 will just fix it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] supercluver:
Reflashedand it is working. Is gallery required for uploads, cause I had removed it previously.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
If your speaking of the gallery 3D app, it was taken out of a previous build because it was associated with a severe battery drain (due to sensor usage). I believe the latest build of Bonsai uses a Gallery 3D app that was fixed to eliminate this bug. The right person to be talking to would be one of the devs at the website noted in my sig. :)

BTW, a second flash of Bonsai has been known to cure many strange ills.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fookxixi:
I installed Gallery 3D from the app market on Bonsai 3.0.1. After flashing 4.0.0, i noticed that the name of the Gallery 3D changed to "false". I tried to uninstall it, but always got an message saying "Uninstall not successful". Any idea?

Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
When you get the "Uninstall not sucessfull" message its usually because your using the stock application manager and it is a system app. You should find it in this file if you use Root Manager or a similar file manager: /system/app/Gallery3D.apk

Just delete or rename the file. :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
If you want it back in after that then just download it from the market.

Randy and mammon said in the changelog that the included gallery3d was optimized so I deleted the "false" one, restored an older version with SDX app removal tool, then pulled gallery3d.apk out of the Bonsai 4 zip and pushed that into system/data folder with root explorer.
[Epic 4G Android Development] illadvised:
Really hate to dig this back up, but the thread has been closed and I would just like to report back that I have been up and running great so far with the release of V4.0

I ODIN flashed, back to DI18 again, flashed to EB13 modem, AIO CWR/Root, wiped, installed Bonsai V4, flashed EC05 modem and now its running great.

I believe my issue was as stated above here by abonet, I usually run with 2 batteries sometimes swapping them twice a day. After constantly reflashing and restarting, and trying to restore apps+data from Ti backup, I have come to the conclusion that the improper shutdown is the culprit.

Many times I would just yank the battery as I was in a hurry. The FC issue would always begin right after a restart, the last 2 times it happened before v4.0 was from a battery change, and the day I went to v4.0 it happened after my phone died while on a phone call. When I popped my new battery in, I got bombarded by FC's. After that incident it all made better sense from abonet's post. I have restored a few apps and data from Ti backup with no issues yet, been running great for almost 8 days now. I could never get past 3-4 days before. The only other issue I can think of is possibly my other battery is bad somehow. I have not yet changed the battery since going v4.0. If I change the battery, I will be waiting about a minute after phone shutdown to remote the battery.

thanks to abonet and metallica76 for your input
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
From what I have read you can also turn journaling back on by simply backing up with Nandroid and restoring that backup.
[Epic 4G Android Development] HeisRisen:
Would like to say, while the process for getting the files was unpleasant, the product was worth it. Tried this on the test phone with great results, so for now this is my daily driver.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
Ahh....sometimes that works and sometimes it doesn't. The only way to make sure is to go into a terminal app and run some code. Not on my home computer so search for "EXT4 on" or perhaps someone else will post the code.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Here it is:

tune2fs.ext4 -l /dev/block/stl9

Then.look at the.output and look on the left handside for an entry called journal inode.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
To each his own, but I find dealing with down loading companies to be a major pita. Considering everything I think XDA should have dl capabilities for developers. I would even pay a few $ a month (new income stream for XDA) to have that option.

Glad your having good results with Bonsai!
[Epic 4G Android Development] finster869:
I started running Bonsai 4.0 yesterday. All I can say is "WOW!". It is superfast, and battery life is remarkable. I am running Bonsai as downloaded and didn't add the cpu program or anything yet. Running stock, after 8 hours, I was usually at about 25%. Currently, with Bonsai 4.0, after 8 hours, I am at 69%. Thanks for putting out such an amazing rom!
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
Another good tip to save battery is to take it off automatic brightness adjustment. Just keep it on the lowest setting. If you need to adjust the brightness just use the notification drawer method to set it. Also, I kill the OmaDRM service whenever i start the phone, I notice SNSServcie is always stuck on "Resstarting/Starting..." in services running so i usually kill it too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
What if i freeze, drm service does it still let me play media files and what not?

also is sns service facebook sync?

As for the brightness off automatic, i find it irritating that when i slide the notification panel down sometimes i make the brightness brighter by accident. so i leave it automatic and saw 14 hrs pretty heavy use :)

what is the drm service in titanium called so i can freeze it??
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
I don't have issues playing like my videos i've recorded using my phone.

Yes, i believe SNS is facebook sync on your phone. I dont mind it except that for some reason it's always gets stuck "Starting..." on my phone. It drains my battery sometimes.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Do u know what the drm service is called in titatanium backup, so i can freeze it?

Edit i found them, for some reason its just hanging at freezing? How long should it take can anyone help me with titanium freezing?? Thanks!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
is your phone in usb debugging mode? you have to enable that, and also you need to have the Pro version in order to freeze stuff...... that's all I know about that, lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Ya, just figured that out, lol it worked perfectly. :D

Is it ok to freeze the sns service or will that prevent me from getting push notifications from facebook?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
If you use the Facebook app, you don't need the SNS service. You will get push updates from the app.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Intersting... what is sns for then?
[Epic 4G Android Development] p3dr0maz:
I believe this is the integration that is directly in your contacts app. Being able to see status updates and their photo galleries when you go to their contact info page on the different tabs [Activities (status) and Media (photo galleries)].
[Epic 4G Android Development] HeisRisen:
14 hours heavy use? Guess we got different ideas of heavy. You will be hard pressed to get four hours of screen on time.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
I did get this with 95% screen on

i used wifi tether on and off for an hour

played like 40 min of stupid zombies played 10 min of monopoly

made probaly only 2 hours of calls

sent 100 texts

and a good 3 hours of wordsmith,wordfeud, and words with friends

i also have weather sync every hour as well as facebook every hour

checked twitter like 6 times

a lot of this was done on wifi tho at home i did use 3g at work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] holes45:
Been working very smooth for me. Good battery life and smooth operation. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
I get about 4 hours as well with heavy use, which is why I have extra batteries. :)

Excellent rom. I tried both acs 1.1.0 and bonsai 4.0 and came back to bonsai because I felt the performance was better on my phone. What is the best setting in setcpu for battery usage? Smartass or ondemand?

What version of WiFi tether....My phone is doing the reboot thingy now with the version I was using...

I'm not quoting the conversation (too many), but in regards to the gallery3D apk, I've removed it and am using QuickPic from the market... find it way better, as far as ease of use.
[Epic 4G Android Development] badbeats:
Sorry i could not find this.. I want to get the clock back does anyone have the file? I see on the Bonsai site they have a zip but how do I use it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Flash it in CWM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] fookxixi:
The gallery3d is for people using Picasaweb. If QuickPic supports syncing Picasa, i'm happy to jump over.

Hi, giving this ROM a try, is there a REBOOT button by any chance? Thanks!
[Epic 4G Android Development] incisivekeith:
I am experiencing this issue, and it has just recently begun to appear. The above quote is for the issue occurring in the previous version of the ROM, but it is occurring in the latest EC05 build, too, at least for me. Could someone please explain the cause and cure of this issue? When the sound turns off, it is turned off for the speakers, not the headset, and it almost always requires a reboot of the device, which is annoying. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] badbeats:
Does anyone have a wifi tether that works on Bonsai 4? The one I have is not working. thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Was in 3.01 and will be in 4.0.1. In the mean time quick boot from market works great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Download Barnacle wifi tether from the market. Works great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
Did deleting data or reinstalling the app help? Does this always happen or just sometimes. If it is always happening have you done a clean install and then added in apps one at a time? The reason I bring this up is I have never seen this problem in Bonsai before.
[Epic 4G Android Development] m5james:
I learned from my Moment days that it's usually better to completely flash to stock and then upgrade to the most current ROM vs just upgrading from one version to the next. I'm very happy w/ 3.0.1 Leafless, so it taking the time to reflash then upgrade to 4.0.0 going to be really that much better, and when will 4.0.1 come out?

Oh, and someone mentioned TV Out in the Changelog? What is that about :eek:
[Epic 4G Android Development] ericizzy1:
Downloaded and couldn't get it to work.any special setting needed in the app itself?
[Epic 4G Android Development] badbeats:
Yeah Barnacle was not working for me either. The old wifi tether with 2.1 worked great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] incisivekeith:
It was a clean install after wiping data and everything five times. All apps were installed one at a time. It has been mentioned in this thread before but no solution was suggested by the dev or any forum member, but I hope Mammon or Randy comments on this. This issue occurs most of the time now and am unable to determine the cause. This issue did not occur with the stock EB13 and DI18 roms. I have my phone set up fine and I don't want to reflash the ROM just because of one annoyance. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] incisivekeith:
Doesn't wifi tether app work for you?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
I don't think wiping before flashing is a good way to install Bonsai. I have (during all the beta's) odin'd back to DI07 and EB13 and flashed Bonsai right over stock without any undue problems. People who wipe before flashing often end up with weird problems.

Have you tried re-flashing Bonsai as that seems to fix a lot of odd problems?

If your looking to get something out of mammon or Randy then your going to need to visit their website (see link in my sig).
[Epic 4G Android Development] Top Nurse:
4.0.1 will be out fairly soon, but it is an update only. You will need to have 4.0.0 already installed. So far the TV Out hasn't worked as yet.

As I mentioned in a previous post odd things happen to people who wipe before installing Bonsai.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
There is a known issue on all Eb13/EC05 ROMs where audio will be re-directed to the earpiece instead of the speaker, after using Bluetooth for A2DP and Phone audio simultaneously. Do you use bluetooth?
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Is this ROM exclusively supported only on their site now? I haven't seen Mammon or Randy post here in a while.
[Epic 4G Android Development] incisivekeith:
I don't use Bluetooth, that is why this is so puzzling.

Any other ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] incisivekeith:
Well, whatever I've read about flashing ROMs, mentions it's always good to do a clean install, and it makes sense to do that to clean any residual data from a previous installation. To flash the complete ROM for one issue is not an efficient solution, I think. There has to be some solution to this issue.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
As it states in the first post....forget what you know......this rom is different...if your not willing to re-flash than you really should not be running custom roms...with custom comes some bugs on initial flash sometimes...
