Mod that lets you change songs with volume rocker - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hey guys,
I've seen this mod for other phones, does anyone know if there's one available for the Epic 4G Touch? It would be spectacularly helpful for when I'm listening to music in the car.
Thanks!

Unnamed ROM has it built in. Works with every music app according to the developer.

Very cool thanks. Do you know if the mod itself is available to use with other ROM's? I was using MidnightROM and switched to Unnamed recently and I'm not super fond of it in comparison. I wanted to try some other ROM's but this particular mod is super handy for me.

It's part of the framework so probably not.
I know what you mean though. I used this with CM7 on my EVO and loved it. I'm glad to have it back again. I've searched high & low on the market for an app to do this and found nothing that does this quite the same.

[Q] [REQ] Louder notification volume

Is anyone able to get the notification volume up to what it was in DI18? Since EB13 came around they cut it down to where you can barely hear it and the ringer is obnoxiously loud. Being I text mostly having the louder notification volume would be ideal for me.
IIRC I think someone patched this up in DK28 but I haven't seen anything on it since.

Thanks for the quick patch. Threw you a few bones for the trouble, not to mention you have the smoothest running kernel out for the Epic in my experience.
One of the biggest issues I had with the Epic just got pwned. Thank you!

Look at the file names....the second one is the Uninstaller.

Does this increase the overall "SPEAKER" Volume, or just the notification volume?

Thanks. I couldnt see the u in uninstaller until I downloaded it
Now make it work on EF02! lol
Yeah if you can make it work for EF02 it would be awesome.
has any one tried this on ef02? it may work fine...i haven't looked at the files but i'd say make a backup in cwm and flash it and let us know if it works...worst case is you have restore a backup no harm done
if it doesn't work then i will make one that works for ef02
well i just compared the stock files from ec05 to ef02 and they are indeed different so i'll have to make a new one for gingerbread...not going to have time to do it today but i'll churn one up soon

Anyone got any recommendations for a good 3G Hotspot app? Don't care if it requires the tethering plan from the carrier or not, since work pays for it anyway.
Any clue if this one has the low incall volume that the other aosp Roms seem to all have? I love a nice clean gb that has been the only thing holding me back from making them my dd

The WiFi Tether app listed there works for me once I apply the settings listed in the OP. I'm on unbloated gingersense though, you may not need those settings for it to work. I'd try it with the default settings first (those worked for me when I ran CM7) and tweak from there. You may have play around with it a bit.

This roms plagued by the same low incall volume that every other incredible 2 AOSP rom suffers from wish this would get worked out that's the only thing holding me back as well

Read about it on Lifehacker, how's it working out for you?
This is pretty interesting, might give it a try.
Nice. Downloading to give a try. I thought I saw some devs talking about incorporating this into some ROMs?

Weird. So it could actually work on a TW ROM?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
So has anyone tested this yet?
Tried it on cm9 (Shabby's latest nightly). Some things work, others don't and some will cause the script to hang. It looks like the build.prop tweaks applied and the init.d items copied to the appropriate folder, though I really can't notice a whole heaping difference myself so I don't know if they actually did anything, and the script itself ran out of the box. The not working list looks to consist of things that probably just need a little E4GT love from our devs to button everything up straight. And (at least for me) installing the Smart Stay app froze the whole process but after a reboot I found that it installed the app.
Just my .02¢, others could probably give a much better run down but I just wanted to play with it so it only seemed right to share what I noticed.
Props to the Dev and OP. I'm very fond of this idea, and thankful it was shared.
UPDATED: OK so I got bored and tried it on PA 2.16 and got a little better luck (ie didn't freeze once and actually installed everything I had selected.)
I'm also on PA and it doesn't cripple anything, but I don't see a very dramatic difference in much of the overall operation. I was hoping it'd help battery life but it seems no different. The Sony music player is kind of cool, and the CPU governors seem to kick in. I guess one would have to really dig in to see the difference. But I'm stoked on this kind of mod coming out.

Another update: I've tried it on aosp jb and ics and touchwiz ics. Still no huge differences anywhere on any rom but it's useful to add beats and a file manager on roms that dont have one out of the box amongst other things. I hope to see this come out of development strong as it's a nice concept
I've noticed more steady battery life.

Which tweaks did you use, if you remember? Ver 2.0 has had a small improvement over the original so maybe I'm just not paying close enough attention. I must say the update alone makes this worth trying once.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Just installed this.. The installation went well.. Going to give it a few cycles to see some results

This seems promising. I can't speak to any battery life improvement yet but the phone does feel snappier.
I installed v2 and here is my find running few tweaks.
Browser seems a bit faster
Touch input seems more accurate and responsive
Battery is hard to tell but maybe added 30mins extra screen on time
I flashed sony music and beats, but I can't find them... not sure whats up lol
Regardless, everything seems a bit more responsive?
Smartstay is quite handy. Especially for pron

I've only ever gotten the Awesome Beats app from Pimp my Rom, which is just a modded DSP manager. The Sony apps are a music player and gallery, which are pretty nicely polished, with quite a few addons for them. What is this acid audio app you mentioned? Not that I'm doubting you, I've just never run across it so I'd like to check it out.

Use as galaxy player?

Hello all I have a question about my Epic
I am currently running rooted Epic W/CM10
And I want to use the Epic just as a player...
What can be taken out the system file as far as apps
and if not is there a flashable zip where I can force the galaxy player 5.0 or something of that nature?
I notice the battery drain and its crazy how fast it drains.
Is there a simple rom I can run with voodoo because I see its specificaly for CM9/CM10? Any help???

Almost every gb and froyo kernel has voodoo sound baked in... I suggest going with the peoples rom (which uses a variation of the samurai kernel, which has voodoo sound) as far as removing system files, anything phone and sms related can go if only wanting to use as a wifi/music player...

My MIUI experience. Pros/Cons

Well, I brought myself to removing my CM10.2 and trying the MIUI ROM. It was a very slick, very smooth ROM. I overall enjoyed it. But with it being a ROM of course it had a few minor bugs. And I did have a few dislikes. So I'm gonna list a few things I personally noticed about it. Fell free to post your thoughts and any resolutions to anything I'm gonna lay out.
PROS:
-a smooth, soft feeling touch that was full of color and a very nice setup. The was miui was set up in settings for example was on of a kind. I was not disappointed. The theme app that was there gave me full control of changing the status bar, lock screen, home screen, etc. You have full control of customization. WiFi also seemed to work just fine.
CONS:
- Sadly, my LTE didn't appear to work. I tried adjusting my setting to fix it. No avail and that kinda was frustrating. But with WiFi working it didn't pose to much of a issue. I also experienced to apps for my gallery, and I was unable to delete it because it was a system app. Some of the themes I downloaded froze my phone, causing me to remove my battery and restart my phone. I wasn't bothered by it to much, I'm rather used to having to do that with previous phone.
Over all if you like a fresh and fast ROM you will love MIUI. But with these few issues I went back to cm. As I need my LTE cause my phone is also a work phone and I need the fastest internet I can get. So feel free to post your thoughts on MIUI and any fixes. Because I would like to switch back and continue using MIUI.

LTE works you just have to select it in settings when you first flash the rom because it doesn't default on. Reason there are 2 galleries is because MIUI has its own gallery and since we have to use 4.2 camera it comes with its only gallery also hide one in a folder if you dont like one. And theme issue I've never experienced this

I love the visual development compared to all other ROM.
Looks great.. but I'm still in love with AOSP.
Right out of the box, I think MIUI looks a lot like ios . Maybe too much.
It is a great ROM though, and very user-friendly.
Could I see a screen shot of the phone? Keypad, in call. These are things people over look, but this is our phone is it not? For most if not everyone on here, the only phone they use.
