[Q] Does anyone want to see RandomRom EC05 updated? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I am running RandomRom 2.2.1 Plus for EC05 and RandomKing was thinking about updating this ROM if there was enough interest...RK has done some amazing things and would I would love to see this updated to include the lockscreen mod...Official GB is still a little ways away, so I am still sticking with Froyo...Respond here and lets see if we can get enough interest for RK to make some updates

I am all for another Froyo ROM. I would certainly try it.

I think an update EC05 rom would be great. I can't run the leaks as daily drivers yet, still the occasional reboot or modem failure so I have to stick to EC05 and just test the leaks.

Guess I'll try and toy around and patch in the AIO mod. I'll be updating the Plus version only, for the record. I consider it superior to the Final revision.

Thats awesome RK...The plus version was my choice as well!

For those of you who have run Randoms GB release(s) as well as the his Froyo release, how do they compare?
I've been running the most current Hawk (GB) since release and am quite pleased/impressed. A few bugs aside, I've kept this as a daily. I'm assuming the Froyo build is relatively the same only rock solid (?)

All the leaks are they same, just slightly moddified here and there, so in the end they all end up perofoming like poop. Netflix isn't worth it lmao

I just flashed the Pheonix version of this rom last night, and I'm loving it!
The only thing I'm having trouble with is replacing some of th apps that I'd like to change. For instance, I attempted to change to RandomKing's blue swype and followed the directions exactly as in the Hawk v.2 post. After that, swype started force closing repeatedly. Is there some sort of incompatibility there, or am I just missing something?
Click to expand...

As far as I know it won't work, no. Swype is a touchy app when it comes to compatibility. On the other hand, download the swype installer and install their latest beta. Its blue and gray and looks awesome.

Wait...isn't the pure AOSP ROM being developed for the Epic a seperate project itself? :\ from what I recall, 1.3 will be an update/more tweaked SFR 1.2+Thoma's Vision kernel 1.3

As far as I know both are correct. Didn't Marcusant say that he loves the AOSP file system that Mystery was moving to? Maybe they're integrating it in pieces.

My question really is that it seems that Vision is the official kernel for SRF. If this is true, why would they not have included the current version with SRF 1.2? Also, besides OC's, what are the bottom line differences between Vision,Twilight and Genocide?

Do I have to repeat myself? It wasn't complete, but Mystery wanted to release what he had. It's going to be released with 1.3. There was a chance that they might have been ready at the same time so he has a kernel update folder, but it's empty. Twilight 1.1.1 is availible already and has been.

I think you misinterpreted his question here, he wasn't restating his question about the version thomas is/was working on (1.3?).
I read it as: "Why wasn't the existing/current version of the Vision kernel (v1.1?) included with the SRF 1.2 release, rather than having no kernel at all?"
There would probably be about 30 less pages in the SRF 1.2 thread if there was an included kernel, even if they just repackaged Twilight 1.1.1. No biggie though, those that inquired within the thread were set straight.

Unbearable Keyboard Lag

Yup, I'm looking forward to running a GB rom daily, but won't happen until we get source so we can get the hw keyboard fix. for now i'm happy with Simply AOSP 4.x and revolted kernel. Pretty sure this is the fastest my phone has been.. ever.
This is sad I know. We have to get source to fix it.
I ended up just switching to Simply AOSP to get away from the lag.
Pretty ****ty that this forced me to downgrade.

yup.. i've decided to stick with EC05 based roms till we get GB source (or a version of CM7 that doesn't include the hw keyboard lag issue)

Blame Samsung! But if your solution is to "downgrade", I do offer an EC05 match to ThunderHawk...
Here's hoping this new source find brings together a new dawn for Epic Gingerbread!
Yup.. it's only a matter of time before we see some lovely GB kernels with the keyboard patches built in, and then we'll have some sweet GB action.

Can Someone make a Froyo Rom for the epic touch

the reason I would want to go back to an old version is because of the sound bug. I can not game on the current os version. most of the game that I play crash on me. It just crash and go back to the home screen without any errors. I was thinking that the Froyo version might not have the sound bug. I don't want to wait for ICS because my old games might not be compatible with it.
Yeah, what the hell make a CM6 one while your at it! lol
I don't think it's a Gingerbread thing, I think it's a Samsung Galaxy S II thing.
How about a cupcake rom? Then we won't have Google maps support or jit! No seriously, why would you want to downgrade the os? How about just a fix on our current software? This would have been relevant on a g1, but not our dual core super phone.

Wow this is a first. I've never seen a request to downgrade Android. As far as games go I've never had any issues with them and I play quite a few on mine. Can you name a few of the games that give you issues?

Your logic isn't sound. What reason do you have to believe this has anything to do with Gingerbread? Considering our phone has plenty of other bugs unique to it, the obvious assumption is this is a bug with our phone. One that's likely to be fixed in the next update. A FroYo ROM would just add several hundred more bugs into the mix since it wouldn't be officially supported and fully tested.
No one is gonna make a ROM just for 1 specific issue. I play games all the time no issues here.
This is the funniest request I have seen in a long time. I do give the op props though. At least he didn't post this in development section.

Early build of CM9, seems reasonable that they haven't changed all the branding yet.
I wonder if they'll beat the official GSII ICS release from Samsung? They've got 100 days (or less).

They're pretty far along, its my understanding the only main issue now is the ril is unstable,but its also unstable in Samsungs beta leak.

Very cool. I don't think we'll be getting CM9 anytime sooner than Sammy's ICS update. (I hope I'm wrong ) The kernel they release will have a lot of the drivers necessary to get the ICS kernel up and running. I know the phones are pretty similar but there a re a few differences.
Are we even certain that CM9 is coming to our phone due to the 911 bug? Since the bug is in Bubby's CM7 Rom as well as T.C.P's MIUI Rom I am guessing our phone will have the same issue as the other Sammy phone they dropped support for...

Samsung will not use the holo theme on ice cream sandwich. What you see in these leaks, give or take a few minor things, is what you get.
You have to understand that Samsung has more then just some customers on xda that use their device to support. They are not going to overhaul a UI just because some enthusiasts think ics looks cool. (Unfortunate in our case, but clearly makes sense from a business perspective.)
That is why Google offers geds. To get the full Google experience when it becomes available. This is the nature of open source.

Try Another ROM!
I just loaded Mijjah77 ICS Fb21 "The Goodness" and I can't get over how much I love it! I would suggest trying it out. You could possibly wait until the version 1.1 then hopefully the gps bug will be fixed. Other then that, everything seems to running great, once you get the mms/txt bug fixed up (you can do it yourself), but this is ICS and it is awesome!
