Evo?
If you mean epic use odin

If you actually mean Evo then you're a bloody idiot.
NEVER FLASH A ROM NOT FOR YOUR PHONE. Pretty Basic stuff.
No" I'm mean Evo the viperstore app has both epic and Evo and even on the viperrom thread one of the devs shows he's running viperrom apocalypse Evo addition idk maybe I'm a bleeding moron or maybe not....
///Sent from my Nightly running,Honeycomb themed,Evo 2.3.3...)///
Even looking on TEAMVipers site there is no Evo version mentioned, either you misunderstood the post or that person has a special build they put together for personal use.
True, I got the rom from the viperstore app. In the market. Theirs even a notation about it may not boot correctly.
Needless to say I was excited when I saw it coming from an epic myself and fairly familiar with the Odin and one click root process. But I'm still very much a noob...
I believe the frozen thread is where o saw the dev running the viperrom evo add....

Thanks for the feedback.

Rude responses aside, I think your best bet is to talk to an Evo developer and see if he can port the team viper ROM. You could talk to the Viper ROM guys, but unless one of them is familiar with the Evo, I doubt they would be much help.
They did have an Evo rom in the Viper Store.... i'd say go to the the ViperROM thread, click on the link to their site, then join their chat..... I'm sure you'd find what you need to know there. I've been in their chat, and they do answer questions.
right on brothers, i will do some further invest. on their official site and once again thank you for going easy on this noob...
to my understanding they (Deamon87 and the Epic CM7 squad) have been trying to get a build that meets the official CM7 standards in order to get the official support....the question I'm bringing to the table is why the Epic 4G (which is supposed to be a flagship sprint phone) didn't have official support from release like some other phones coming out have....with functional nightlies out within a week of release....if anybody has any information i'd really love to know!?!?

Dameon is a very busy person. There are a lot of things still being done before he an work on cm7. Our epic's are such an underappreciated phone. Its just how things are... nothing more we can do.... except be thankful to all our devs we have =)
Who knows where our epis would be without dameon aand noobnl
Btw you spelled his name wrong =P

Ohh ok I didn't know if it was a main project or anything...and yes the Epic 4G would be a very VERY boring device compared to all the other developers other phones have without them...but my question still remains why doesn't the Epic 4G get ROM releases from the official CM7 developer team like 20+ other devices get...even the other Galaxy S phones have official CM7 support...what makes us Epic owners different?

According to the Cyanogenmod "Devices" page, Samsung Galaxy S (they just have one link for all the Galaxy S phones) is not supported. So...I don't think they do have official support:
"Information
The Samsung Galaxy S is a series of devices that feature a 1GHz Hummingbird processor. It has/will be released in the USA from several carriers & under their own name, including the Samsung Vibrant for T-Mobile, the Samsung Captivate for AT&T, the Samsung Fascinate for Verizon & the Samsung Epic 4G for Sprint.
Not officially supported by CyanogenMod"
Straight from their web site.
In my understanding, it was because some of the base driver files required software from Samsung, that Samsung will not release, causing the need for the drivers to be totally rewritten and/or made from scratch
As such, I got the impression that once all the drivers have been written/created, official support would be forth coming, but until then, it was not available.
that is just my educated guess from all I have read on the subject though...
well now that the nexus s with 4g wimax is out perhaps the epic 4g will get some sort of rom based off that... I say give it a few days... As we know the nexus s has 2.3.4 now...

I just checked the captivate and vibrant forums under development and they both have fully functional versions of CM7 with various custom kernals...the only other Galaxy S device in the same developmental boat as us is the Fascinate....the Vibrant & Captivate forums also have instructional links to the CM7 website about flashing...so again I propose the question with a slight adjustment...why wouldn't the Epic 4G and Fascinate have official support...and does anybody know how we would request development from the official CM7 team

It is very difficult and a lot of hardwork.

Somebody has to make the time to do the hardwork and have the know how to figure out how to convert the Samsung Epic Drivers. HTC usually reuses the same parts each year so development is simple. But on the other hand it makes their hardware suck and outdated. Samsung is innovative and they don't want their secrets out their for anybody to rip off and due to the fact they are innovative you have create new drive every time they come out with a new phone.
CM7
I am grateful for all that the CM7 have done. I a sea of glitchy ROMS, no of them fit for a daily, out of the gate, the Alpha ROM for the Epic has been, well, epic. A great ROM with wonderful potential.

Hey hey now! If you appreciate the CM7 rom brought together for the Epic a year after it's release and right before its demise, that's great. But don't go badmouthing the fully-featured, very stable assortment of roms that have kept the Epic 4G alive for over a year now such as Viper, Bonsai, Midnight, and SyndicateFrozen to name a few! There are plenty of great roms that thousands of users use daily and have been for many months, you must be doing something wrong.
Also, check your grammar a bit:
"I[n] a sea of glitchy ROMS, no[ne] of them fit for a daily, out of the gate..."

Sorry Random, you are right. I have only begun to root for a few months now and it is likely my ignorance that keeps me from having a smooth user experience. Admittedly I have only been flashing GB ROMs and have not tried the Froyo ROMs. I have only tried a few because the work of restoring apps and data gets tiring after a full week of work and a life to live. I apologize to all the devs that have worked so hard to make the 4G a better device and am definitely grateful for all those that have done so much and put in so much of their valuable time. Perhaps I will give one of the Froyo ROMs a spin.
As to the grammar, well, I have no excuse and feel deep shame. Please forgive me.
see, there's your problem. while the GB roms are fun, they aren't "daily driver" stable generally speaking. RandomKing's Phoenix 2.2, ACS's SFR 1.2, ERA's Simply AOSP 4.01, and many others are ones i've run for daily usage and they all have their strong points (mostly come down to preference) and are all very stable and fast.
yes, you are right, I got stuck on the GB train and couldn't get off.
I was wondering if ACS Team is working on a Syndicate ROM for the Epic 4G Touch? Coming from my OG Epic 4G laced with Syndicate Frozen 1.2. That ROM is tha **** fo' real. I really hope you guys do cook one up. I can see MAD donations. I have use many Epic roms but always went back to Syndicate. IT'S the BEST OG EPIC 4G ROM. PERIOD!
+ 1, you've got my donation for sure. Have not even bother with trying other roms, not until Syndicate or mikmik come up with one. Will wait it out!

I have to say banzai was great too. But I have to agree, ACS was a good one.
I loved the original syndicate ROM for 2.1, but the second I never could get to work right went to bonsai after that loved them both though, and I Would love to donate if we could get some more of that love on the epic touch!

They were getting ready to start plans on SRF with a 2.3 GB base, but it never really materialized. I don't know exactly why, but it would be very nice to see an SRF offering for the E4GT. It was my go-to rom of choice for the Epic.
My concerns with development around the Epic Touch lies in the trend that many people refuse to upgrade to the Touch from the original Epic. It's just not worth the upgrade considering the gain in hardware/software, especially when considering the impending release of LTE devices.

Chris41g was working on SRF 1.3 when I upgraded (I have the test build and it was great) so maybe he will work on one now that he has an ET4G...that's purely speculation though. I haven't heard a word about it

I know that this has nothing to do with the Epic but I'm coming here to seek guidance. I moved from an Epic 4G to a SideKick 4g and support is dead so is the forums. I'm wondering how difficult would it be to port CyanogenMod 6 or an older MIUI version to the device?
Which phone would be best to use to port CyanogenMod 6? The Sidekick 4g has a Hummingbird processor but like the Epic 4G it has a keyboard and a lot more differences than the other Galaxy S series phones.
Maybe I should of PM'ed someone instead of posting here and if you fill this shouldn't be here please delete it.
You just kind of posted at a bad time.
Another porting thread was JUST made.

I don't think porting cm is possible. You have to build from source. After you have that, miui should be easy. Let me know and I can try to help you

Howdy,
i was curious about learning to build cyanogenmod for our EVO. There is a walkthrough on how to do it for CM7. Does anyone know if there is something similar for CM9/CM10 by chance? I'd be curious what sort of differences there are since the EVO isnt officially supported past CM7.
Thanks!
