[Q] 2.3.7 update for epic yet - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

the nexus s 4g just got the 2.3.7 update. any word on when we may get it? or is it even needed for the epic?

We don't even have 2.3 at all. We do have a really good build of cyanogenmod 7.1 though.

Isn't the most recent universal build for Gingerbread 2.3.4 or .5? The other builds are for certain Nexus devices that had bugs if I recall correctly.

.4 and 5 have issues as well but being that 2.3.7 is the latest and maybe last build before Honeycomb they updated CM to that. Better performance.

Again they upgraded because it's "possibly" the last Gingerbread Build leading to ICS two days from now. Or 1 in China. But it allowed them to enable some other graphical features into play.

Where do I find cyanogenmod 7.1 - link please! Can it be used as a daily driver for epics?
Edit: found it here http://www.cyanogenmod.com/blog/cyanogenmod-7-1-released - but it doesn't say epic, just Galaxy S - will have to read and see if it will work and if it is worth it .

you should at least try it- its very stable but missing a few things:
No 4G
Depending on whether you use the ofriginal or the 10/15 update you will have either spotty wifi and no video, or spotty or no wifi and some video.
There is also a feedback issue where the microphone stays on but there is a fix for that also.
Very, Very sleek and very, very fast.

[ROM-AOSP][08-29-11] Evervolv [Crespo4GONLY]|GRJ22/Android 2.3.5| v0.1a

Alright ladies and gentlemen, I am glad to finally bring you the Evervolv series of ROM's. (THIS IS NOT OFFICIAL) Its is a port. That's all.
This rom would not be possible without the CM team, so i give them props any time i can.
What is not working:
Wifi
Wimax
First off:
You will need ClockworkMod 4.1.0.4 to flash this rom (uses ext4 partitioning) - You can find this here Also, this rom, as of this moment is only for the Nexus S 4G, NS coming soon.
Second: This rom was not created by me, all credit goes to preludedrew and the evervolv team. All i did is create a build for us NS and NS4G users. Also for Screenshots, check out Evervolv.com!
Now:
Download the latest from here.
Make sure to do a full wipe. Also, flash Google Apps here.
RSVP....
looking forward to it

Sorry i wasnt specific, this is ONLY for the ns4g.
So I just flashed, everything is looking great! I love the bootanimation
Out of habbit I flashed Matr1x kernel immediately after the ROM. What kernel came with the ROM? The GRJ22 OTA one?
Wow this is really nice! Great job on this. I forgot how awesome Evervolv is
Thanks, ill upload an update in a bit.
sorry to be ignorant, but seeing as ive never heard of this rom. mind spilling out some of the features?

My favorite is the Evolver settings. You get the ability to show/hide clock, change lockscreen, change battery indicator, change layout of launcher (Evervolv, Gingerbread, or Froyo), add/remove transparency from notification drop down, show/hide different things from status bar like gps icon. There's a ton more like different transitions. Also has Theme Chooser

[Q] MIUI

So does anyone here know if we will be getting MIUI for the epic touch? And if so do you know when we will be getting it? It was my favorite rom for my evo 4g and i would love to see it on this phone. Thanks
It will be ported eventually yes. We need aosp kernels.

I believe lithid-cm already started to work on it indirectly. By indirectly I mean they need a working AOSP kernel/build first. So that's what he is working on right now. I believe the kernel is giving them issues.

It would be really nice of Cyanogen would put out the AOSP kernels along with the stock one because he works for Samsung now.

It will usually boot with touchwiz kernel but most of the time 3g 4g touch screen and calls wont work that is why u need aosp kernel .

I rocked Miui on my OG EVO 4G almost exclusivly.
Having finally jumped ship to a stock phone (I rooted ;-)) there are some concerns with going back to miui:
1) NO 4G!!!
2) On Evo, there was no 720p recording with Video... I'd hope we can take advantage of our 1080p cameras!
3) DATA WAS SLOW
That's it... If those 3 things were fixed I'd be happier than a stuffed pig!!
MIUI PROS:
1) customizable like no other!
2) smooth
3) Clean UI
4) overall fun to use

[Q] why there are NO AOSP or CyanogenMod for the ET4G?

just curious because im jumping to Sprint with the ET4G next week and i've always been using AOSP roms and CM specially.so what gives,how come no CM7 for ET4G?
so i've been out of XDA for a while so please fill me in.thanks
Because you haven't developed any yet. Get cracking!

i wish but seriously how come there are no AOSP roms for the ET4G?
ICS sourced dropped like a week ago, the device has been out for a couple months
The biggest problem is that there is no aosp kernel right now that works. So once we have that there is a better chance at getting aosp roms.

Well there's supposedly a build of CM7 Kang that works quite well on the SGSIIE4GT with some mod work. It was also sent to one of our main devs, Viper boy, and I'm pretty sure he and his team are ripping that thing apart line by line to make it work the best it can. They like to release finished products and they literally just got it yesterday... so.. idk hopefully soon!!!

Just curious, will it help once the Nexus-S 4G gets the official ICS Android 4.0 update from Google + Sprint, can any of that code be used to help make a ICS ROM for our E4T ?
Don't both phones share the same CDMA radios, and some similar Samsung hardware ?

Hold up: Who exactly did you "clarify" that with? I'm only curious because I was the one who sent that kanged Rom to Viperboy, and it was MOST DEFINITELY NOT an ICS Rom when I sent him the link to my Dropbox. When, exactly, did it morph from a tired CM7 build into an ICS ROM?
Am I now known as an "underground smuggler" of ICS ROMs??

Pretty nice, cant wait for epic 4g touch variant.
Wow, that looks slick.
Btw, it's awesome that Codeworkx could make a demo video of a non-public Rom without using "Let the Bodies Hit The Floor" or "Soar" as the background music, as is much too commonplace these days. Awesome track.

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.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
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...

-kernel has all the voodoo's
-MIUI v4.0 ICS
