So I rooted my boys epic and installed the ACS Frozen rom, everything seemed to be fast as hell for about a week but all the stock rom lag has returned..... so my question is what kinda setup are you guys using to keep a very smooth and fully functional setup going? I seed you don't have any AOSP roms that seem to be functioning at this time so what can I do to get this thing running like an AOSP rom? Thanks guys!

Ok, right after flashing the ROM did you flash the journal on zip? Also, are you/he rebooting once a day. If yes to both, try booting to recovery and wipe Cache partition and Dalvik cacke 3x and reboot.

Journal on zip ensures stability in case your battery dies or you drop the phone and the battery pops out. You can get bombarded with force closes or data corruption. Usually lag can occur from the cache filling up. That's why I recommended wiping it. Here is the journal on zip. Just boot to recovery and flash. You might as well wipe the cache and Dalvik to see if that fixes the lag also. So, wipe those and flash this zip...

If you are on SRF 1.2 with journal on and a Genocide kernel, you are using a really good Froyo setup. You can always grab the ACS Updater app from the Market and try one of the many good themes. The Gingerbread ROMs are all based off of the leak as we don't have the official yet but many people are having good results. Oh, almost forgot....there is a flashable add on Hotspot hack so you can use the Hotspot for free!!! it is in the Development section. Make sure you use the one specifically for SRF though

First and formost my phone is on stock eb13 with genocide kernel, rfs, and rooted with oneclickroot v2.5.5 and am still really new to all of this so please help me out.
First I was wondering if I can flash bonsai right away or if I need the new clockwork 3.x with ext4?
Second I was wondering if anyone on this rom is having any of the same battery charging problems as those caused by the new syndicaterom with twilight kernel on ext4?
Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!

Pretty sure Bonsai scans your phone and formats it for EXT4 if it isn't already. It backs up your data and restores it, too. Just do a complete backup then flash it. If it is a no go, just restore.

Anyone using Sprint Navigator? Please check how many satellites it finds under Share & More/Diagnostics. I have 2 epics, 1 on Bonsai and 1 with just stock and Genocide, and both report 1 satellite and 10% GPS. GPSTest reports 9 Satellites and Google Nav works fine (hate the voice and graphics).

Finally found it. Used Ghost Commander to change the permissions. Live Wallpaper is back but some seem to be missing from the stock selection that came with the phone. No worries.

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.

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?

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'm assuming from reading the original post, it says it has Kobridge's init.d scripts baked in, so the KERNAL included in the ROM must already have that ability for those to work...

I have had that happen to me one time as well. It turned out that the KERNAL I was trying to use it with didn't have init.d support.
