Why not just switch to ext4......for me it flows better....rfs just dosnt play well with some roms for whatever reason...but ext4 has never failed me :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mohwak:
Well I am sure you have heard about the memory issues and the OS writing to it so many times could potentially shorten the life of your phone.

With the last version (and the version before that) of the ROM i did run CW3 with ext4. I just want to see if I really noticed a difference in the smoothness and speed.

Also Team Viper advertises that this is a dual ROM. I am sure they want to know if something is not working correctly.

Plus I like having options.

one more thing....I am stuck at work where I cannot odin back and install cw3 and ext4. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Agree with Vocal. EXT4 with journaling is where its at. Speed/stability.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Lieb909:
I did a complete wipe and odin to EB13 and ext4, then flashed the rom.

I have been getting fc on the internet browser as well as a number of other apps i installed. I wiped cache and still have fc.

Any advice?
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Did you restore anything or are you adding apps fresh and still getting force closes? Miren Browser is the one working properly... for me anyway
[Epic 4G Android Development] SPElectronics:
A lot of us are running EC05 with SynErgY, so having a new kernel optimized for it seems like a normal progression for most people. Plus, some people just like to try every new thing that these awesome devs put out! (Note, I have not switched to .5 kernel YET).

I myself was disappointed when I switched from EB13 to EC05, since others reported such huge speed improvements. I experienced a DROP on my phone. I just haven't taken the time to flash back to stock and start fresh. I'm basically just waiting on the next Rom... :)

I just tested it on my phone, and it appears to be working fine. I have hit snooze twice so far, and the alarm rings again just as it should. It should be going off again in about 30 seconds... Double check all your settings in the alarm, and make sure the snooze timer is selected and set the way you want. Mine was set to 5 minutes, 3 times, by default, but I changed it to 3 minutes just to test so I could reply. Yep, there it went again. Working fine, and this time it didn't give me the option to snooze again (since it was set to only 3 times). Seems perfect here.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Lieb909:
Nothing was restored, everything is being installed fresh....will try Miren
[Epic 4G Android Development] NeeceeBabe:
It is greener on the other side... .5 Kernal with Synergy! :):p
[Epic 4G Android Development] vocaltreat:
Yes I know that....and heard that.....I'm just promoting the other side lol....and only expressed my experiance mohawk.....and yes team viper does want to know any and all flaws to better understand and get things fixed pronto.:-P

Shesh I was just sayin ;-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Mohwak:
Alright...Not sure what was going on but when I got home switched over to CW3 and ext 4 (because Vocal and her siren calls lured me back to the dark side) and everything is working. Thought I would let ya'll know. Hope you find what is goofed. If you need info from me send a pm. I do not want to clutter the thread. Thanks guys.

Also now that all is well on my phone anyone have any ideas on how to get

Blueputdroid app working with this ROM?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
I couldnt agree more!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Six-Deuce:
I PMed this to your inbox but here it is in case u didn't see it:

Hey I had the exact same problem... Vocal and some other people helped me through this:

After trying several times to flash unssucessfuly they had me

1. Go to EB13 stock

2. empty out my SD card - I just copied it all to my PC..

3. once its empty give it a format (default partition size, fat32 format) and put the Synergy rom in the card so its the only thing there.

4. Dload and install CWM3 root/recovery

5. Boot the phone to recovery nd I should g through the ext4 conersion (you will LOVE it).

When that's all done flash the rom and it will work.. almost guaranteed!.. I tried it all and this was the only fix for me. Once its done u can manually put SD content on PC back to card

Market will change icon to green now not orange, but it will work.

Let me know what happens and if this helps.

ps. You could stay on RFS, but it's so not worth it lol.. Trust me I was there.. Glad people made me switch.
[Epic 4G Android Development] farmsatguy:
Hey folks, I just posted a question in the Q&A section that I was hoping some of y'all geniuses could look at? I hate to be forward by doing this, but the ViperRom is the only rom I use anymore (for several months now) and I was hoping one of you might have an idea on how to fix this problem. I posted in the Q&A section because this problem is happening no matter what ROM I flash including Odin back to stock (which is where I'm at now). Thanks so much, Team Viper is da bomb!

Awfully quiet in here!

This ROM rocks, running the .5 Roderick kernel that others are, and it is super fast. I work with 2 other people with epics that are afraid to root and flash, but after showing them this new Rom, they are now reading up on what they need to do, lol! Thank you TPhillips and the Viper Team for all of your hard work in making this the best ROM ever!

Dolphin crashes when jumping to secure session

Dolphin HD is now crashing when it jumps from http to https. You can test this by going to google.com, scroll to the bottom and sign in. Crash!

I need a reliable browser. I have already reset my defaults back to the supplied browser. (go to Dolphin in Manage Programs and scroll down to "Launch by Default". Click the Clear defaults and Android will ask you the next time it triggers a browser.)
[Epic 4G Android Development] :
Dolphin Mini works

Opera works

Firefox works

Miren works as well

I suggest Miren or Firefox. They're both solid.
[Epic 4G Android Development] photoframd:
Is Miren the one that you supply with the ROM? Firefox does not support Flash yet.

Hey guys, I'm new to the Epic 4g world.

One of the first things I'm going to do once I've had the phone and gotten used to the ec05 stock for a little while will be to move to a custom rom and viperrom is the custom rom I'm moving to.

I have a question: what will I have to do to get automatic recording of all calls working on this rom?

Thanks, and I'm feeling great about the phone, the roms and the community here so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tpike:
What do you mean by automatic recording of all calls?
[Epic 4G Android Development] garyf:
I'd like to get an in-call recorder working. My first looks around seem to indicate that this function may blocked in the stock kernel but it can be hacked on some androids.

I'm just wondering if anyone has gotten software working so that for any incoming and outgoing call, an audio file is made on the sd card that records both sides of the conversation.

That would have actually come in handy in an argument I just had with sprint about what their representatives offered to get me to come up the the epic 4g.
[Epic 4G Android Development] vocaltreat:
You know gary im not sure...we pretty much take the sprint crap out but im not sure as far as if it has to do with the kernal and what not. Have you looked in the market to see if there was an app that does just that (records calls) for rooted phones? If not i would also google that and see what you find
[Epic 4G Android Development] konaman:
@garyf--I do believe that I've seen an app for this somewhere. I'm not sure if it was in the market or on mobilism website but I have seen it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
yea but they do not work on the Epic....none that i have seen at least...
[Epic 4G Android Development] SPElectronics:
DroidRecord Pro? I think most of these apps require the conversation to be via speaker phone, because it records using the microphone. Not my idea of a good method to record conversations.
[Epic 4G Android Development] garyf:
It seems that some modicum of a solution to overcoming the stock epic 4g's software limitations on recording directly have been overcome.

[Epic 4G Android Development] squshy 7:
So I don't know if this is rom or kernel related, but there is an old eclair mod I miss that I would LOVE to see enable in viper...

it was on baked snack, I may be incorrectly referring to it but I think it was the 11% mod...basically, when you moved the brightness slider to a point slightly ABOVE the minimum it set the screen to an even lower minimum brightness (not quite desk clock ultra dim low lol)

It was perfect for viewing in the dark or at home while at night (so under house lighting) and saved an INCREDIBLE amount of battery, I would only lose about 1% of battery for every ten minutes of screen on time..I would love for you guys to seriously consider this
[Epic 4G Android Development] nfamisnme:
Question? Is it just my epic or does anyone else experience this exact problem. When charging the epic in the car, and utilizing the headphone jack to stream online radio or play and videos or music to my cars aux port, I hear a hissing noise in the backround. If I unplug the car charger it goes away.....any ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] squshy 7:
Happens to me too...headphone doesn't even need plugged in, ill hear it over the speakers anytime they're on, but mines like a high pitched squeal..can't hear it over the music tho. I'm chalking mine up to the fact that I have a $5 charger lol. Its more than likely some type of frequency bleeding in to the car's electronics. I wouldn't worry about it
[Epic 4G Android Development] nfamisnme:
I'm actually using the sprint dual charger.....I've been looking around, seems like the static hiss might be from the charging circuit. I've emailed Samsung, I will post there responce.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] SPElectronics:
Noise in a vehicle like what you're describing is most commonly ground loop noise. Because you have multiple devices that have different grounds (power from cigarette lighter for phone charger, power for factory stereo at another location) and then have the two devices connected by another cable, you induce noise into the circuit. This can sometimes be filtered by a better charging circuit, having a ground loop isolator installed on the circuit, or sometimes rewiring the charging circuit so that it shares the same ground as the stereo. I recommend trying another charger, and/or taking the car to a professional mobile electronics installer and have them isolate the problem and try to correct it for you.

Hi anyone have the zip or can zip the lp dock and icons that came with this rom? I upgraded launcher pro and lost them in the process.

I downloaded the icon packs on the viper store but cant find the dock, Sorry and thanks pm me if you have it or post it, and by the way this rom is fast and reliable best rom I have installed, keep up the good work cant wait for the ec05 version

Awesome ROM man!

A few little things I have questions about. Can we get a GB keyboard .zip that we can flash? I hate the swype keyboard with an undying passion. Also, I notice it likes to get stuck in landscape mode sometimes. Anything I can do about that?

EDIT: The FPS cap seems to be back in place, should I just flash the unreleased version of the Genocide kernel to take care of that?

Proud moment right here, even though I'm a tad late to chime in lol

Amazing job TP! Coming from someone that was around the process of this ROM, I can personally vouch for TP when I say he put tons of hours into this ROM.

Proud of you bro, never had a worry about you pullin it off.

Keep it up bro.

[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
I noticed that ACS ROM had the Voodoo application included with the download of the ROM. Is this one supposed to have it as well because im not seeing it in the app drawer. I saw that there were voodoo sound patches. Are we supposed to install those separately if we want voodoo?

Thanks again, this ROM is pretty amazing. Ive tried all of the EB13 ROMs and this one is by far my favorite so far. Keep up the good work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MДЯCЦSДИT:

[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
Thanks man....are the patches totally necessary or is that just in case it isn't working correctly?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
Maybe another dumb question, but is the Genocide Kernel built into the ROM or do we need to flash it separately?
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
kernel info is in the OP :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] konaman:
I'm on dk28 still running the last viper rom. So do I need to Odin to stock eb13 to flash or can I flash this over my dk28?

Thanks and nice work. I can't wait to get off work 8 hours from now and flash this!
[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
Odin to stock eb13
[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
Yes i realize the kernel information is in the original post. Your response is not helpful at all. It doesn't say in the OP whether the kernel is built in or not, it just says that this ROM works with Genocide Kernel.

I realize sometimes it's difficult to answer an easy question from someone like me who may not understand everything as much, but if you are actually going to take the time to respond to my post you can at least be helpful instead of directing me somewhere that isn't quite clear.

Ok now i am really irritated. I did the sprint prl update no problem about two weeks ago and got prl version 60677.

This morning I got a OTA update for prl and it went back to 60676. Can anyone tell me why sprint would send me an OTA to downgrade my prl?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
Because Sprint sucks balls and probably jumped the gun again before an update was bug free and ready to be launched. That's my guess. That's why i never bother with their OTA updates. Even when I re-flashed my phone back to stock EB13 I cancelled the EC05 update and did it all manually with the ROM and Kernel and then flashed an EB13 to EC05 update found in another thread here. My phone's been amazing.

On the subject of PRL update, I've followed the instructions to a "T" and I cannot get my phone to be recognized in QPST. It only shows serial ports, no USB. I tried the alternate methods given as well. Is there a way for the devs to allow the prl updates to come through automatically? It states in the PRL thread that this can be enabled or disabled by the devs.

I also have had no fc's with dolphin either like most are so dont know what to say on that one. hope this helped

I'm having a pretty serious problem with my phone after using this ROM--it was working extremely well until yesterday, when I started losing service for no reason in an area of full coverage. The phone would go in and out of roaming mode every few seconds, battery dropped like mad. I updated the PRL today and not I cannot make or receive calls OR send texts. 3G and 4G work fine. I re-flashed eb13 and then ec05, and I still can't make calls on either of those stock builds.

I know there is a ticket about this already, but honestly I don't really have the time to wait and find out what the deal is because currently I have no cell phone. I'm going to try manually updating my PRL later to the most recent one (for some reason updating took me back to xxx76) but I don't have time to do it right now, and I don't know if that's going to work. If anyone has any ideas about how to fix this, please let me know asap. Thanks!
