after trying every flavor out there, ive decided to stick with di18.
i am picky, i know, but the stock rom (rooted) is 100% what I like. there is not one thing that doesnt work the way i like it to.... so.... on that note
ive removed all the sprint apps, update.zip and its rooted but i cannot get the darn thing to stop asking me about the update...
<picture> epic with 2.2 and caption "DO NOT WANT!" </picture>
help
make it stop!
I believe you could just rename or remove the systemUpdater.apk and it would stop checking for updates
.. I think thats the correct name but if its called something else please correct me
Edit: I would just use Titanium and "Freeze" the system updater at first. but i think this is removed on custom roms anyway so shouldn't be a problem to remove it

well, im a big fan of the syndicate rom but it carries over what i dont like
the "google" search is slower than the stock search
the browser seems slower
messages in the "call log" annoy me
cant search in phone app by last name
keyboard seems to "miss" letters
except syndicate, dk and ce based roms just seem slower
if i could build roms i would and remove the carrier iq and add the extra functions when you hold down the power button.
btw, im a guy.... i need to change my sn lol
so, im going to just remove system updater, hope that works
I'm with you,I liked DK28 the best out of all 3 FROYO releases,and I actually had DI18 on all day today just to see what it was like again; And I forgot how damn smooth it was compared to this hacked-up **** we have right now,I know EC05 is young (and I plan on building EC05 still) but I'm making a DK28/EB13/EC05 ROM with no carrier IQ,and most if not all EC05 mods should work,I start on that as soon as I get off work.

removal of the systemupdater.apk solved this issue.
Glad to hear It worked out. Wasn't sure I had the name of the apk correct

What you listed doesn't make sense...
the "google" search is slower than the stock search It is the stock search.
the browser seems slower Fast and checkerboardless in SRF.
messages in the "call log" annoy me Not present in SRF.
cant search in phone app by last name Fair.
keyboard seems to "miss" letters Better than DI18 and user-adjustable in SRF.
I don't think you need to defend SRF kOnane... I think my problem is UV kernels,but I still can't narrow down the static/pops. But this is what I've seen sofar,when fast scrolling (scroll fast,then remove finger fast) no pops,but if I scroll with my finger on the touch screen the entire time,it pops like crazy ; Which makes me think its the touch screen driver,or interference on the bus when using the touch screen...

Also looking for this ?
you can find the it for Sense 2.1 over on Miks site.Nandroid and try it.Worst case,youll have to do a batt pull. Also,i think most people have been using Widgetsoid for the power controls in the drop down,if the mod works for 3.0.

Could you post the link to the shift thread that you are referring to? It might throw some ideas out for devs.

Sent from the bowels of my mind.....
The first is for for 2.3 down Mik G roms,and the second is for 2.4+. These were posted by jadeboy7 over in Miks forum,in the Evo 4G section.When I try new things,that arent made for the rom Im running,i run Droid Explorer on my desk top with the phone plugged up. Easy reboots into recovery without the need for battery pulls.
Edit: tried it,but it was a no go
http://de.codeplex.com
Just in case someone wants to know where to find Droid Explorer.
Bump it up?
I just saw in evo 3d forums, themes and apps, thyrus has developed themes and offers versions with removed recent apps. Someone should hit em up. Im too busy at work right now.
Edit: themes were made for sensation, but posted for 3d. Double check me. I Dont have time ATM. Sorry.

thats the thread but Im running godmode synergy so know for fact wont work. But aopears as possible just have to get one the current theme makers to include it.
hey guys, i need some help here lol..... basically, i have no idea what im doing.... i rooted my phone (evo 4g) and i have the warm 2.2 rom right now (which i like alot) i like how its all blacked out and got some transparent stuff, real clean.. BUT i HATE the lock screen.... wanna get the "ring" lock screen, but i have no idea how to do it... also i downloaded "synergy w, god mode" or something like that, and everytime i boot into recovery and try to install it off the sd card, it loads and installs, BUT when it brings up the white HTC Evo 4g Screen when i reboot, it stays there and doesnt ever boot.... ive let it set for like and hour, and it still does nothing..... basically.... i wanna know how to change my lock screen to the one in the sinister rom i think? not really sure what the name was... i think it was sinister.... it had the sweet ring at the bottom you would drag up to unlock, but i didnt really like anything else about the rom..... is there a way to mix and match? and also where do i go to find more mods for the warm 2.2 rom? i have the transparent title bar, thats it..... HELP any advice it GREATLY appreciated, im trying to learn this stuff as fast as i can, but its so overwhelming lol Thanks in advance guys!!!
Before you flash synergy wipe everything. Factory reset, and both cache. And you should use the non gmode synergy. Also look in mods in the second post of the synergy post for a transparent notification bar

Ya when I flashed it the first couple of times it just hung at the white EVO screen so I pulled the bat and wiped everything BUT the SD card and it went great. Also looks pretty good now that I got the whole 3D look going

Install the non god mode rom, god mode one isnt anything to go crazy about. I recommend baby steps since your newly rooted, so stick with what you know will be the easiest sure thing and work your way up until you are comfortable with all things Android
ok ill have to try that!..... as for now i have warm 2.2, adw launcher, and lock bot.... ill take some screen shots.... one thing i do miss is the HTC widgets (calender, favorites) stuff like that... is there a way to get these??
If you use launcher pro plus from market, it has some widgets, but not quite like sense (and i personally like ADW better than LPP). Beautiful Widgets in the market has sense-like clock widget. I never have found anything that compares to the htc mail widget, though (thats one of the only reasons i use sense a lot)
Lockring: as long as you're on synergy, or any sense 2.1/3.0 rom, youll have the lockring. There are threads (MANY) with custom lockrings to flash. And the greatest devs in the world, that even take requests
Have fun.

Using adw you have the sense Widgets. I use to use adw but since installing synergy I'm all over sense.

What recovery are you using..... synergy requires amon ra..... if you are using rom manager .... you can switch recovery to amon ra..... flash alternative recovery at bottom of menu on rom manager.... you will be able to flash synergy thru amon ra........
Fflexed from my SYNERGY EVO!
hmmm.... maybe, i am using rom manager, maybe that has something to do with it? im really not that worried about it anymore....i have a decent look that im satisfied with right now..... oh yeah.... because im so new to rooting and all that stuff, if there any sweet benefits that im not hearing about? like what other cool stuff is there to do other than changing themes, appearances? thanks! lol

thats is definitley why gmode isnt booting and also i would stick to non gmode for now. themes are kinda iffy on there at the moment.
Quick question. Didnt see this mentioned anywhere sorry if it was. Any way to be able to use the camera during a call? I dont see why it would be disabled but i needed to but couldnt today. Not a big deal just wondering!

Haven't tried it. This is my second epic touch and I have yet to root this one.

i wish this were true. alas using the camera while on a call is not a feature of potatoman's modified camera.apk.
sadly, it's not even in his "possible features [he's] looking at implementing" list.
hope someone can make this mod soon. it's the only camera mod (other than focus sound disabling) that i'm concerned about.
I just tested and it works fine with the Camera Fun app that was free on Amazon a while ago. It's not the stock camera, but it'll work. Right?

Coming from an EVO 4G, this is a feature I miss badly, being able to take a quick picture while on a call. I remember the original Epic couldn't do it either and it was one of the reasons I went back to the EVO. I'm not planning on leaving the SGSIIE4GT though
Been having trouble with this as well. Will go and experiment with those and come back!
anything new on this ?
What's the issue here? Taking a picture while on a call, or are we talking about video calls?
I believe it is a touch wiz issue. I have the Samsung Epic with Cyanogenmod you can take a picture which making a phone call because it does not have touch wiz but with every touch wiz Rom you can't. You can wait for Cyanogenmod to support your phone. But you will be waiting a long time.

Yeah the issue is when you are on a voice call if you try to take a pic you are not allowed to even load the camera app at all. Even if you hit the Home button and goto the main screen (with call in background) there is no way of doing it. It's kinda annoying at times when you have to tell someone "Hey let me call you right back I need to take a pic of something and send it to you"
I've had to do that far to often then I'd like to lol.
so this phone has been around for a while... I never did root it but since I have a note 3 I would like to turn my epic 4g into a music/game player....
I have never rooted an android device. what is the latest instructions idiot proofed? i want to be able to uninstall bloatware and turn into a gps speedometer for my mud truck. maybe play games or movies... so essentially an ipod...hahahha
i posted this because I have been googling and searching here and coming up with instructions with dead links... can anyone help me?

Our epic is the d700. Yours is the d710. Check out there foruma for root. And don't use our files, you'll brick your device.

I am currently running the Note 3 and have been rooting and flashing since the S2 epic 4g touch. I just dusted off my old epic 4g and rooted it with the fc09 stock rooted rom, and activated sprint for my brother. I didn't have any issues until after flashing. When I go into recovery now, nothing will mount, so I am unable to perform any actions in cwm. The stock rooted rom runs fine. I haven't ever had this happen before. Does anyone know of a solution? I even installed a 16 GB SD card that I had from my S2, and still get the errors in cwm.
