Myns rsl 4 help?

All the other kernels are making me get a line in my screen when scrolling. The only one that didn't do that was stock#17, can someone help me fix my kernel problem or least direct me to stock 17. Thanks in advance, I appreciate it.

You do know rls5 is out right?

What did you wipe before you flashed it? I would highly recommend using Calikulin's format all zip
Flash this, and then reflash the ROM. This should help you

Make sure everything is up to date (PRI, PRL, Radio)
Then flash a #15 kernel. That will fix your problem. Netarchy has a couple of good ones out and MS79723 has a really good SBC one out as well.
RLS4 is packaged with an outdated kernel, which when everything is updated causes screen tearing which is what you're experiencing.
Update everything, update kernel and you're good to go.
As an alternative, RLS5 has an updated kernel if you don't wanna go 3rd party with the kernel flashing, so backing up with titanium backup or my backup (both have free versions in the market) and then doing a full wipe and flash will also fix your problem.
Hope this helps.

The only thing wrong with 5 is me updating the radios. I didn't wanna do the full wipe for optimal use. The screen tearing happened on 5 and 4. Any kernal besides stock.

So that format all gives me updated software or what?

So I decided to just update my PRL and that worked. My phone is not lagging or tearing. I didn't think that would do the trick but it worked. Thanks guys.

i am having MAJOR problems with rls 5 though. i'll see if i can get them sorted out. if not, i'll post. i think caulkin's 1.8 extended data settings messed me up, bcuz now i can only get text messages while in a phone call, and i dont think i am getting 3g.

One reason why I just stuck with 4. My internet was slow AND I had that browser slowness 4 host file flashed..just went back to 4..

I have tried many of the leaked gingerbreads just to find that this or that doesn't work. The best that I have found for battery life and everything works is this rom.

All the info you need "should" be in the OP for the ROM. For instance SRF 1.2 requires you to also flash a kernel of your choice. Most ROMs are EXT4 these days but there are a few RFS ROMs out there. And almost all include a kernel. So if you want to try someone's recommended ROM for battery life, just remember to run several backups first, a nand and something like Titanium Backup.

thanks ..im just bein a litttle more cautious cause its not my phone and i dony want to get yelled at if i mess it up

I liked simply aosp, it was a good ROM. I ran the revolted kernel with it and got good battery life and performance. if u did triple wipes in cwm like u were supposed to, then it would be like starting a new ROM with nothing on it. Are u sure u flashed it right?
Edit: flashing roms on the epic is very similar to flashing them on the evo, minus the cool amon-ra recovery

When modding someone else's phone that it the kind of ROM you want. The one that makes some new graphics and keeps everything else the same. What launcher is on her phone? If it is still Touchwiz, get her to start using another launcher since a lot of ROMs remove twlauncher as bloat. I got ADW for my GF and I use Zeam. It will save you a homescreen nightmare.

well, as long as it works, then you're good to go. i always found that flashing without wiping data or restoring data from a previous flash has a tendency to cause issues with the rom later on. if u do have any problems, u may have to go back into cwm and wipe data as well as the cache and dalvik (3x/ea) then reflash your rom. but again, if it ain't broke... also, kenny said something about the touchwiz launcher... that launcher is included in the simply aosp rom under the "simply settings" app, as are the gingerbread launcher and the froyo launcher. i like touchwiz ok, i prefer the gingerbread launcher over that tho.

i love jb but....

i flash a jb rom and it works ok for a while then i leave it alone and it gets disconnected from mobile network....am i doing something wrong??? running paranoid android for now...happened on other jb roms as well

Try to wipe data/factory reset and all that then do a fresh install. Remember to backup your contacts and use appbak to save a list of your apps.... oh & I think i read something similar to your situation over at the paranoid thread a couple days ago, go check it out. there might be a solution.

I'm thinking alot of the massive cpu max is due to some of these dragon games my son installs because I've restored from Titanium in the past on cm10 an that's when sh1t happens. I'm just going to see if the phone can make it a whole week before I do anything to it.

Fuk yeah! I installed my Lucida Grande font and didn't get bootloops.

After a running SuperDuper and doing a clean install of Venom, booting, going back to recovery and flashing the 4.2 keyboard, booting again, I had it reboot on me at the boot screen, but then it went through fine and the keyboard works fine without boot loops. So I suggest if you really want to stick with 4.2 keyboard, just play around with it a bit more and be patient with the booting. Eventually it did work me, just saying.

no problem flashing 4.2 keyboard here not even a fruit loop

Must have been the deskclock then. I just installed the 4.2 keyboard apk and it's fine.

Pardon my arrogance, but why would one need to run this tool? I've never had any issue flipping between cm9/cm10/Sense.

Is it time for JellyBean?

I have been using various TW based ICS Roms for sometime. Darkside, Infamous, etc. I have been so excited to use Jelly Bean and try out project "Butter" I notice there is an official stable release for Cynogen mod 10. Is it time to flash? I get anxiuos about it because I delt with an old HTC HD2 for a year and there were lots of "work arounds" and such. It became rather annoying. So I really like BLN notifications, and having a camera that "Just Works" and decent battery life etc. Are these things I am going to sacrifice. And also, if I wait until there is an official release of JellyBean for our device over the next couple of months would we see more stable builds shortly thereafter? Would it be worth waiting another month or two? or is time for JellyBean? Just curious what folks thoughts are about this? Who is using what? How it works etc? I am really looking for a DD something I can be happy with awhile. I can always just do a Nandroid and hope for the best I guess lol. Thanks for any input!

I would definitely try a jb rom I was hesitant at first,but now I wouldn't go back. On the liquid rom and it runs great.
I believe the camera will depend on what gapps you flash, I'm using the justun bean gapps. Bln works fine and battery life is good ( I'm using the kko kernel)

Definitely try CM10!!
You will fall in love.
I know exactly what you are saying about being hesitant because you want something that just works, without a bunch of additional issues to fix.
I always seem to find problems with other other roms that push me into looking for something else, NOT HERE!
CM10 is just so polished, It even fixes things that didn't work in any TW rom for me such as being able to send / receive MMS while connected to wifi.
It even has BLN built in and activated from the start.
I must say that CM10 + T989 = THE BEST phone experience I have EVER had with any phone.
I was getting so sick of going through so many wrongs, always to end up having to settle with some negative.
Everything just works with CM10 on our phone, and works well at that.
I finally dove in with the nightly CM10 builds about 2 months ago and now the official CM10 release.
Not a single lock up, force close, reboot, glitch or problem here in the last 2 months.
Battery life is really good, phone is smooth and fast, and most importantly it's super functional.
Everything works so much better for me than with any of the TW roms.
I love how CM10 is minimalistic and fast, yet has so many functional improvements and additions.
In my opinion it is hands down the best rom for our phone.
I think the fact that there is an entire team of developers working on CM is what makes it so good, it's not just dependent on one person like most roms.
Flash CM10... fall in love with your phone all over again!!
And after you flash CM10, flash this GAPPS http://goo-inside.me/gapps/gapps-jb-20121011-signed.zip
I haven't had any problems whatsoever.

Well thanks for all the input. Especially in regards Cyanogen Mod 10. I may try that very soon. I'm excited about Jelly Bean! May be time to make the switch...

With how easy it is to do a backup/restore of phone these days, I find it easiest just to backup what I have and dive in to a new rom because the worst case is that you have to spend 5 minutes for it to restore if you don't like the new rom. Good luck! Hope you enjoy it!

So I did it ! ! ! ! I like it so far. The aesthetics are very nice and I did miss the customization of Cyanogenmod. The only thing I notice right off is the BLN notification is craaazy.

Thats a good idea. I just read in the Cyanogem Mod Stable notes that the kernel was tied into the ROM very tightly especially with project butter. Whatever that means. So maybe I will try another kernel. Do you use an app or just the system settings?

I have not had any issues with the gallery,camera, or video recorder whatsoever. In fact, I took over 200 photos and 10 videos at a concert this weekend. I haven't seen any issues with it in the CM10 thread either, so I know it's not a common CM10 problem. Are you running the stock CM10 camera, or have you tried flashing the 4.2 camera? I know the 4.2 camera has some issues, thus why it's not stock on CM10 yet. I would say, try clearing your camera / gallery cache. If that doesn't work, you may have a bad flash. Make sure you wipe data / reset, wipe cache, and wipe dalvik cache, flash the rom, flash gapps, clear cache / dalvik again, fix permissions, then boot into CM10. Never had a problem doing it this way. I'm using 2.2.2 (i think) TWRP touch recovery. As far as the outgoing call issue, I have not had that issue either. Occasionally someone can't here me when they call me, or I can't hear them, but not very often. I had this issue on stock and every rom though.I think it's just a Tmobile issue. I'd say try some different radios. UVLE1 has been good to a lot of people.
