I couldn't even do that while I was in alpha3. I cleared my phone back to to stock just so I can start fresh using Odin. I probably didn't have to do that, but I just thought I would give it a try. Going to try flashing all of this again and let you know how it goes.

Soon as I got my phone back to stock, my OTA update for EC05 popped up, cool. Ok, I just rooted and going to flash Alpha1 then Alpha 3 again and then I'll update you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] couraage:
Anyone having isses with their SD card likely messed something up. I followed nullghost's instructions and all is fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ScientificOne:
Had been running EC05...wiped everything 3x then Flashed Alpha 1..connected wifi...wiped only davlik then flashed Alpha 3 and gapps...wifi works and have no problems accessing SD Card...
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Format the sd card.

[Epic 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
Sorry about the double post but I have completely redone everything like I stated. My SD card shows up just fine in Alpha 1. As soon as I flash Alpha 3 my SD card is not recognized again.

I reformatted the card like you said and did all of this other stuff and still have the same result. If I go to my music is says no sd card inserted.

Could it be because I have a 32gb card? Does anyone else use a 32gb card on Alpha 3, and are you having any problems? Im just going to have to flash to something else I guess. My card works fine on everything else, even Alpha 1. Thanks for you help.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
It could be the 32gb, do you have another card to test?

[Epic 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
I put my 16gb card in and it works fine. Unmount and put my 32gb card in and it wont even read it. Its like its not there. It still works fine on Alpha 1 though, I just tried it again. But on Alpha 3 it doesnt. What could cause that?

Its been formated and clean install. Works on all other roms as well with no problems. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
So it looks like it won't read the 32gb cards. Too bad, no alpha 3 for me then either ;)

Sent from a truly Epic phone on the XDA Premium app ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] NEXUS 4G:
followed same steps... 16 gb sd card wont show up in alpha 3, just wont work... any other tips
[Epic 4G Android Development] SINNN:
This is suspicious since the 1st page doesn't claim alpha 3 is out.

ill stay away. XD
[Epic 4G Android Development] arod404:
excellent job guys, very stable for alpha3. I actually posted 10 comments just to write in this thread.

I wanted to see if anyone else has this issue, my contacts aren't showing up right. the address book shows the names and numbers but when they call or text it doesn't show the name just the number. if a fix or somebody else said this i apologize i looked through lots of pages before posting
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigray327:
Mine are showing up just fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigray327:
devs, I like the idea about nightly builds that someone mentioned a few pages back. I know you don't want incomplete work out there, but a build every few days with the caveat that it's not an official release would be great.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
No problem, hope the CM team can get it going again :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nightlies are impossible unless the builds are more stable. Otherwise, every build, every night would be broken.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dazednconfused:
I would hit the thanks button, but for some reason it doesnt show up on my laptop. It used to, but now the forum looks yellow and no "Thanks" button. I screwed up my setting somewhere.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tinkergnome:
can someone give us the differences between alpha1 and alpha3
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Change the theme at the bottom left of the page from XDA classic to XDA 2010 and then you can use the thanks again :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Seanc13:
I'm guessing until this hits beta no camera or mms right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] 063_XOBX:
You have no idea how long that's been bothering me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Possibly/probably (though I could be easily wrong :p)
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Lol, no problem :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] GucciPilot:
Tiny LED + flashlight app is not functioning in alpha 3, back to alpha 1. Wifi performance is shoddy as well.
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I'd use tesla led in the future :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigray327:
I don't mean every single night, per se, I mean every other night or whenever a new working piece is added. They're not impossible.

P.S. I'm hoping Beta 1 is coming soon, otherwise they would have made a new thread or changed the thread title for Alpha 3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 063_XOBX:
You're thinking too far into it, they only released Alpha 3 to satisfy the people begging for a new Alpha, so it makes sense for them not to update the title when you see the new issues Alpha 3 has vs 1 (borked WiFi etc.)
[Epic 4G Android Development] ScientificOne:
tesla LED is nice, but doesn't work on Alpha 3..
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigray327:
No, I'm really not.

You're not the only person that has been following this since day 1.
[Epic 4G Android Development] DevinXtreme:
Yes. You are.

Alpha 3 was released to smooth over the people asking for a new release every day. As you have read, there's still a lot wrong with it and, in many aspects, is less functional than alpha 1.

The team is working hard to not only get this going, but to make it conform to CyanogenMod standards, which includes moving away from proprietary libs and start using their open-source counterparts. This is why WiFi isn't working on a fresh Alpha 3. WPA supplicant is borked (pointing to the wrong place) at the moment, but we know the root of the problem. It would have been fine had we waited for our alpha 4.

Nightlies, even every-other-nightlies, would prove to be more of a headache not only to the users, but to us as well. We're working as hard as we can to get this done. On top of that, we have a git repo that we're working harder to keep as updated as possible. You're more than welcome to build it and release it yourself. We won't stop you. Also, if we aren't moving quick enough, feel free to join in. We aren't super exclusive or anything like that. We're very open-door and if you feel that you can do better, hop on IRC and join our channel (you'll have to shoot one of us a PM for an invite). It's at irc.fossnet.info and the channel is #epiccm-dev. Just hop in #epic and see if one of us is on, shoot us (Decad3nce, Dameon, nullghost, UberPinguin, wispoffates, bikcmp, myself, and a few others) a PM, and you're in.

That said, we have lives outside of this. Mine exploded, Dameon potentially has a new job (last I heard, he was off to his interview), and the rest have other things going on, too. We aren't going to put that aside to devote every waking moment to this project because the users want us to move quicker. I'm sorry, but that's just too much to ask. This isn't our job. We do what we can when we can.
[Epic 4G Android Development] msponsler:
Thank you. I can't express my gratitude enough for the sacrifices you and others have made in their personal lives to get us to this point.

The real world is very consuming. Marriages, family, work -- hell, just relaxing -- all take their toll, and require so much attention. Some don't understand, and some may never understand the responsibilities that some people undertake.

Take your time guys. We'll get there when we get there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paul627g:
+1 on Devin's speech!

We all have lives outside of this world of rooting/hacking and cell phones in general. Everyone does the best they can to provide the best for everyone. Things go wrong, its part of the whole process and bottom line we need to thank these guys because no matter how long it takes it will still turn out better than anything Sprint or any other carrier/device maker can produce.. We have Sprint/Samsungs example of quality work.. EB13/EC05 and whatever the next rumored update to Froyo is going to be... Remember those people are paid to do those jobs and put out that garbage they call Froyo, these folks here do it for free and for the fun of it and give us 100x over what their educated, trained professionals give us.

End of story... CM7 will turn out just fine, like fine wine it only gets better with time ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] bigray327:
We're a thousand posts into this and we've all heard the speech. I've thanked you a bunch of times. I was simply seconding a suggestion that is completely feasible, you just choose not to do it.... and that's perfectly fine. Just say no, don't make it sound like I'm asking for your first born son. I'll study up in the other thread, and if I can do it, I will.

Again, for probably the fifth time, thanks for all you're doing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
So I had a question. I see in about phone under kernel it says 2.6.32.9 so that mean I can flash the genocide kernel over this?
[Epic 4G Android Development] asdfghjkl:
you could..but it probably wont boot up. I may be wrong though....
[Epic 4G Android Development] nullghost:
No, other developers have to make their kernel compatible with CM7. It's not up to us, it's up to them. Unless they say their kernel is CM7 compatible, don't bother, you won't boot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] compuw22c:
+1

Keep up the amazing progress - At your own pace. Most of us good testers know you guys have lives and aren't paid for your amazing work, even though you guys should be the ENTIRE samsung code development team!
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikey80021:
Just so I'm clear and understand properly, after the update to A-3, the build will not change, but the changes will take effect. I can see a signal strength now, but cannot adjust cpu settings. I can play angry birds (kinda a test to make sure I updated correctly). I'm good to go, right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
You may want to hold off, as it seems that A-3 has more issues than A-1 ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikey80021:
I'm aware of thed issues, but sometimes I get lucky. :) still want to check it out, it reads my sd, (stock one), ran it since last night with no issues, yet. Sometimes my phone is like a tank, others its like a pinto. If I have too many issues, I've got a couple backups of a few different roms to go back to!

I have to say, though, that I am loving CM7. I wish I could help more, but my area of expertiese is pc repair, and a bit of networking...
[Epic 4G Android Development] icreative:
Wonna alpha3)= where can i download update for alpha1?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffyv2:
Look back a couple pages
[Epic 4G Android Development] icreative:
Thnx, download it. Why only 80mb? Oo and can i update a1, without wipe?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Yes, no wipe, and that's about the normal size of an AOSP rom.
[Epic 4G Android Development] 063_XOBX:
Because there isn't any touchwiz adding to the file size.

And I wouldn't recommend using Alpha 3 at this time, it breaks wifi and for some people won't read SD card.
[Epic 4G Android Development] icreative:
sd and wifi dob't work, and a lot of reboots))= a1 more stable than a3
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
I'm pretty sure we already warned you about that.......
[Epic 4G Android Development] icreative:
Yes) backup rulez! Hm, maybe this prob with radio ec05?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nope, radio doesn't matter really.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bobdude5:
It doesn't break wifi if you don't wipe
[Epic 4G Android Development] icreative:
hm, why my device doesn't work well with a3)=

Wonna b1, like this rom. Like cm before use at g1, hero, moto droid e.t.c..)= but wonna cam from samsung.

Who can do keyboard with яверты layout and gingerbread design? (;
[Epic 4G Android Development] icreative:
I update without any wipe)=
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffyv2:
Try going to alpha 1 and connect to wifi and then flashing alpha 3
[Epic 4G Android Development] ThrIsNoSpork:


I'm pretty sure its only having issues reading 32GB sd cards.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mikey80021:
Been running A3 for a couple hrs now, no issues so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] NEXUS 4G:
have 16 gb after market sandisk n it wont read it
[Epic 4G Android Development] rygran87:
Ditto. I went from alpha 1 to 3 and no SD card...
[Epic 4G Android Development] ThrIsNoSpork:
Ahh, that is strange then. I'm using the stock 16gb and it works fine. Guess it's hit and miss... regardless its still a great rom. Thanks cyanogenmod team :)

I noticed though that I couldn't mount sd when connected to a PC in alpha one. The notification showed but when I selected it nothing happened. Haven't tried it in A3 yet though.
[Epic 4G Android Development] professoroak:
Siiighhh.. I got constant reboots when I flashed Alpha 3. So back to MidNIGHT for me. But in the few seconds that it was running everything looked sweet! Thank you devs for putting so much work and your own free time into this! Can't wait till all the kinks get smoothed out and we get some CM gingerbread love too :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Try A1, much more stable then A3 :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] knx2:
Anyone have tasker? Mine force closes everytime

Nevermind. Fixed it by disabling a gps thing I had setup
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gorguts:
No bluetooth, and no wifi on Alpha 1 for me, any ideas? I also keep getting a message about a google search thing and I keep hitting cancel cause it says wifi may not work if I turn it on or some crap....but wifi is not working anyway.

Awesome job otherwise, this is easily going to be the best and cleanest rom what fin. I even ADW runs a little smoother I hate how choppy it is compared to other launchers.

Thanks for all of your hard and quality work.

Later Days
[Epic 4G Android Development] NEXUS 4G:
Had the same issue the 1st time I tried alpha 1... than my second time installing it. I could mount USB hard drive without issue. Odd

[Epic 4G Android Development] Chabsin:
Instead of nightly builds, which are indeed impractical, how about more frequent updates on progress?

Any breakthrougs on GPS or camera in the last few weeks?

Thanks to the tram for all their hard work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] RushAOZ:
Nice!!! A taste of gb. This rom is ducking awesome. Can't wait untill its done. I just realized 4g is nowhere to be found. I needs ma 4g yo. Ill be keeping an eye out the final build. I do agree with the above poster though. Why release nightly builds instead of log updates and make us wait till its finished. Ill get a much more satisfying boner that way :) awesome job doods. I was actually overwhelmed at all the different settings that weren't there before.
[Epic 4G Android Development] spartasr:
Final build may not have 4G...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Shiggity:
That's what RCs are for. I vote for all but 4G working properly. Then add in test 4G functionality in the form of RCs and go from there.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lilmexx:
Hey all,

Quick question... I know there are sd card issues, but I am having mounting issues. No pop up or anything. I can see the card in astro or whatever file manager i check, just no mounting.. Any way to get the mount? I am current on A3..

Thanks
[Epic 4G Android Development] smugface:
First off, Great Work! I have a few questions.

Since this works with all radios does it changing radio effect anything?

I was able to get wifi working using the method of connecting in A1 and then flashing A3. I do notice that it will randomly disconnect from wifi, is this common?

Someone mentioned getting camera to work with a camera app. Has anyone else been able to get this to work?
[Epic 4G Android Development] greezestain:
I was able to get it to work. You'll only see a white screen while your camera app is up, but it will take pictures just fine. You just can't see what you're taking a picture of until after the picture is taken.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Royals:
Hello Everyone..are there any screenshots of this rom?
[Epic 4G Android Development] 063_XOBX:

What app are you using? So far mine just crash everytime.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bullitnutz:
Yeah - it seems this was a difference between A1 and A3. Whitescreen in A1, FC in A3.
[Epic 4G Android Development] greezestain:
Ah, that would be it then. I was on A1. I haven't jumped into A3 yet.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smugface:
Sorry for so many questions, I am new to this and trying to learn/understand?.

When there is an update on github is this something that can be applied to the current version and if so how is it done.

Or is it something that will be in the next release?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kab0b0:
Github updates are changes to the source code that is used to build the flashable ROM. In other words: no they can't be applied directly to your phone. They are, however, a somewhat handy way of seeing what updates to look forward to in the next release. Or, at the very least, another source to check when you're desperate for updates like a crackhead (in my case, anyway).
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
So, whenever I plug my phone in to my computer through USB, it shows that it's charging but I can't Mount it... any help?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
That happened to me on alpha one as well. I believe it was addressed as a bug, so not much you can do about it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
Nothing at all?
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
You could format your SD, but that didn't work for me or many others.
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
Lol jokes.

EDIT: Lag turning on the screen from sleep mode. Wtfluff?
[Epic 4G Android Development] dryvali:
Usb mounting

If you are only trying to transfer files, I have installed and had success with "Wireless File Transfer Pro". Don't let the name fool you, it is free in the market.
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
It's not a joke oddly enough, it's actually what people were doing to get their SD Cards to mount properly, some got it to work others, not at all. lol.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
So I'm running alpha 1. Should I go to alpha 3? I heard it has more bugs than alpha1
[Epic 4G Android Development] theimpaler747:
Nope, I'd stay on A1 ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
I don't know if this hs been asked here but once sprint gets the nexus s 4g will it be easier to get cm7 up in running?
[Epic 4G Android Development] AproSamurai:
In theory, yeah. But with Samsung it's always hit and miss somewhere important lol. Amazing devices, but more hype of perfection than there is actual proof of it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] guruleenyc:
Thanks for the tip!

BTW, between the awesomeness of Cm7a1 on the Epic versus the thunderbolts more of the same EVO feel, poor charging port location, weight, GPU and reduced battery runtime; I am returning the Thunderbolt demo unit and sticking with my Epic. I eagerly await the Bionic...

Wow, Dameon87! You said that so slyly (sp?) I missed it the first time I read it. Beta 1, that is friggen awesome!

You guys rock!
[Epic 4G Android Development] spitefulrain:
What part of cm7 is broken that causes the slow sensors? Is it in the kernel? Because in cm6, it worked perfectly, as in no rotation lag or anything, and on newer official kernels for 2.2, there is no lag either. But on the unnoficial dk28, and cm7, the lag is there. Just wondering.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cadams14:
Can someone send a link or the page for the Beta 1. Thanks. Didnt see where it was located at.

It's not out yet. It's what the next release will be, and he's just saying that it will be fixed in that release.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rocket321:
Beta 1 is looking to be pretty amazing. I've heard GPS, Camera, 3D accell were all being worked on. I'm really impressed with the speed of progression with this project. Thanks to everyone on the Epic CM7 team!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Chabsin:
Thanks Dameon for the update.

Would it be possible to get an update on the status of GPS and camera? Any breakthroughs?
[Epic 4G Android Development] coke32:
Are they having testers for beta 1 right now??
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Aww man I can't wait for beta 1 to come out I'm loving alpha 1 and I run it as my main rom lol are we going to be able to flash on top of alpha 1 or are we going to have to wipe and install fresh?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rygran87:
Been said a few times that it flashes right over. However I remember nullghost stating you need to wipe dalvik...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Cool can't wait for it then lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] smugface:
I have been running Alpha 3 should I be running Alpha 1? Are there any less bugs?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
Ya alpha 1 is more stable than alpha 3
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dubar:
Yeah, alpha 3 was really just to give people a taste of what is being worked on, both are a work in progress, but a1 seems the more stable of the two
[Epic 4G Android Development] smugface:
So can I just wipe dalvik and flash Alpha 1 to go back to it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
U could try it I did a full wipe and re installed all the gapps and my other apps. I just wanted a clean install but u can try to see if it works for u if not just reinsatll it and wipe everything
[Epic 4G Android Development] InfDaMarvel:
So you guys are skipping from alph 1 to beta 1. Yet alpha 2 isnt yet as stable as alpha 1. So im assuming youve made some sort of huge change that has fixed quite a few problems. Im assuming a kernel?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jeffyv2:
They went from A1 to A3 now going to B1
