[Q] Top Epic Roms - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Just curious so if anyone wants to chime in please do ok ive noticed since the last month or so there seems to be 2 roms that stay updated and the most popular which are Calk and StrongSteves and he uses Calk's as base so my question is has anyone tried both and came to any honest conclusions on which is better and if Strong Steves just a themed version of Calk's

I have been extremely happy with Calk. Great battery life and speed.
If you like battery life, check this out;
Calk's 2.0.1a + Rogue 1.3 kernel

Even through pm?

I was waiting to hear which rom was the best, 4g is a must. Im looking for a rom where everything works, no fc or reboots. a rom that has been used or at least ten days without problems. I just got the epic touch, still have my old epic and I have flashed my old one many of times. Many of great roms but ater a couple of days the fc or reboot, trying my best to avoid that. So If I have to I will wait as long as I need to for a nicely tweak new rom. I have read and strong steve looks and sound really nice along with tnz blend, any help on the matter. Any truely daily drivers or do I need to wait, I cant wait to flash so someone help me out.

Daily driver plus tweaks ... Id say cauklins is most stable. Its a harder choice with these epic devs cus to be honest almost all these Roms are pretty damm solid for being a young phone. A lil better battery here, a lil better reception there...they're all pretty stablestable. Reboots stopped with the EK02 modem for me. And the only fc I've had is between zeam and my pandora folder. But zeam fixed it.
Coming from the HTC hero and the OGepic ...where there was a lot of test and error...were lucky to have some good smart seasoned devs on this phone...not to say they're decent ppl but they do decent work ;D memory leaks, LOS, reboots etc...get stomped out pretty fast.

To the OP; I would check out the Starburst ROM. The latest build makes it extremely easy to flash with CWM. It offers the best stock experience in my opinion. It's an absolutely flawless ROM which is basically a stock Epic ROM stripped down for speed. The most stable build has been out for over a month and it's made by one of the most respectable devs for the Epic.
There are some options for customization as well and you can flash the latest official kernel/modem for the phone. The ROM is 100% stable, I have been running it since I got my Epic and wouldn't run anything else.
It's not a flashy ROM however, I like the build, it's super fast and stable, all of what you are asking for.

2.7 has no problems at all. Its user error. If you want deodexed, go for Calkulin's or NoName but the others are great as well. If you want odexed, strongsteve's is amazing

ICS recommendation for a bud of mine..

I got a buddy with an epic touch. He wants ics really bad. I own a tmo gs2 (I know I know :-/) I was wondering which of the ics roms you fine folks have flashed is most "fully functional" and good enough as a stable daily driver. My thanks in advance.

He could start with FE07 leak. It's ICS with TW and its pretty stable compared to some of the earlier leaks. It's an easy flash, too, thanks to sfhub's odin. You can find it in this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1642564
That is a hard question to answer as everyone has a favorite for different reasons. They are all pretty stable. Calkulins E4GT 2 is one of the more stock looking with a few battery saving tweaks. Blend ICS "Goodness" has really nice themed ics look and has very similar tweaks. AOKP Roms are fairly stable abd have built in ROM Control which is very nice. I'm using HyDrA tablet hybrid ROM and its stable, but because of the dpi settings the market sees the phone as a tablet and you have to change your dpi to download regular apps from the market.

Another vote for fe07 leak then if your friend likes it send them here to figure it out on their own.
FE07 will be your best option for a beginner. Don't go to AOSP until source kernels are released. FE07 will be the most stable. CM9 is very stable too though.
Wow you guys are really far ahead. All we got is skyrocket ports and the tmo ics leak that just dropped lol. Kudos gents.

The reason for this is because of the kernel for ICS not being released from Samsung/Sprint yet. It's pretty simple to do all the regular CWM functionality on an ICS based ROM though - Use Odin (or highly recommended: Mobile Odin from the play store, which doesn't require a PC) and put the el26 CWM kernel on your phone (it's found many places, like the AOKP OP for example). It wont boot up with this kernel so just boot into recovery and from there you can backup, flash themes, wipe things, and then to get back to your ROM simply flash an AOSP tweaked kernel - also readily available (in AOKP OP again).
Certainly a few more steps than we were used to on GB Roms but it's totally worth it to me. ICS is a massively better experience for me so the few hoops to jump through are worth it. When that source kernel hits (any day now) it will be the land of milk and honey.

The most stable ROM

I know that Roms can technically differ from phone to phone as far as stability goes. But in truth I have not found a true daily driver. Its either a radio issue here, MMS issue there. Its insane. Never had this much trouble with Roms on my Atrix. I blame it on the ff18 kernel.
Anyways, my question is what's you're daily? What's the most stable ROM for you and your e4gt?

I recently rooted and flashed my E4GT with CM9 alpha6: Android 4.0.4, but after trying it for a week I'm finding that this ICS rom doesn't quite seem ready for daily use. Issues: Camera error "insert an SD card", Apollo's Equalizer never worked (no change at all), after calls it has error "unfortunately DSPManager has stopped", GPS stopped working on day 2, just keeps searching for GPS, battery life is only so-so, I get about 6 hours if I'm lucky, and then there is the random force-closing of programs (stock SMS especially) and weird "ghost" Menu Button presses. WHEW!
After a quick One-Click Odin back to GB Stock pretty much everything is working again, except GPS, not sure what that's about, but I'm going to wait a while before using ICS as my daily ROM. I don't mind a little tweaking once in a while, but that was too many issues to be messing with.
Just flashed back to Blazer GB v4.0, it's great.

You should probably download and flash again because I haven't had anything bad happen to me while running CM9. My camera works, no ghost buttons, no force closes, no call problems, great battery life (best I've ever had on any ROM), etc.

Same here. CM9 has been stable for me since alpha 3. Best ICS rom I've used.
For the GPS issues, there's a fairly well documented fix for that. Just use the temporary gingerbread rom, get a fix, then re-flash ICS.

My vote goes to the GS3
Same question as "what ROM are you using". No one can tell you what is best for you. You have to try them and see. They are all good.
These threads are frowned upon because everyone uses their phone differently.

Best ROM ever for S3 is FoxHound. It is very complex, stable, fast, lots of twiks, great battery life, lots of customization from the stock to the newest features, no wonder it has 850Mb. During the installation you have lots of choices to make with everything you like from choosing the kernel up to the themes. Do not loose time by installing and uninstalling all Roms possible. I also liked ParanoidAndroid or the new Aosp from it. But nothing compares with FoxHound. It's worthy to pay the guy for it. Good luck http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1708371

What's your FAVORITE E4GT rom?

Just like the title says, it can be a gb/ics/jb rom, doesn't matter.
What's the rom that keeps you running back?
What's been the most reliable/fastest rom?
For me personally I have to say CM10 because I love JB. Coming in at a close second would be the Blu Kuban.
Aaaaand go....
I really liked Codename JB rom but the battery life wasn't good enough for everyday use. I know I will be back on that rom soon. In the meantime I have been on a vanilla aosp ICS rom for the past few weeks. Longest I have been on anything.

I don't really think this is a support thread for specific roms, however I'll try it now and report back.
Edit: Booted it up no problem.

I certainly apologize. I have not seen this other thread you speak of. Furthermore, next time I create any kind of post I will tirelessly search for a same/similar one.

What I meant was another thread like this, there have been several threads that were similar that have been closed. Everyone has their own opinion, yours will be different, millage may vary, blah blah blah.
No offense to you in any way, I just don't see this lasting long.

CM and MIUI have been my goto roms for any phone that's been supported. Of the 2 though, I'm partial to MIUI. Love the style of it (with ADW Ex launcher) and the customization.

You need to flash em and find out. All the roms are the best rom.
Better go get your fire retardant undies on cuz the flames are coming.

I've tried most of them. Some are great and highly customizable. With that being said I'm currently running jellybean gb08 (stock/rooted). Battery is great phone is smooth and sleeps well not to mention full 4g speeds where the network doesn't suck. ( kernel source not out and I personally experienced slow 4g on custom kernels)

Try Cyanogenmod10.1 wild for the night, Its latest features and easy to use. It has bad battery life depending on usage i don't play games on this rom because i know it has bad battery life. If i just call, text, internet, twitter, facebook then i get about 14-15+ hours.

Try Calkulin's E4GT v3.0 EL29 Its a bit outdated but it has very awesome battery life, i get around 25+ hours.

Try GB08 Jelly Bean latest leak for best featured touchwiz experience and it has nice battery life 19+ hours.

You know that if you get this wrong you might as well put your balls in a frying pan and start cooking!!
So be wise and choose carefully. You need something simple that gets good signal all the time, doesn't freeze, doesn't crash, and the battery lasts most of the day. Sounds like stock/rooted jellybean to me.
If you want to get fancy with all kinds of bells and whistles you can try a custom build rom but you're going to be putting your self in danger.
The safest custom roms may be some GB builds, Calkulins el 29 v. 3.0 is a good set up, super stable with great battery life. ( I have this build on my wife's phone at present ). I was on this same build until Jb GB08 dropped.
Running stock/rooted GB08 /Fl16 kernel /GB08 modem, everything works the way it's supposed to.

Lol @ this thread... first of all, questions go in the Q&A section.
Second, these threads don't do very well since everyone has their own personal opinion. Your best bet would be to read.

Yeah what's the big idea of asking questions here!?!? ...... wait a minute I just asked a question! :what:
Never mind :banghead:
I take my answer back!!! Lol.

I agree with PanchoPlanet. Use one of the GB08 roms if you want everything to work properly. Calkulin's EL29 v3.0 is an outstanding GB rom, but it just isn't the same as JB.
I use Touched By SG SIII by g_dling84 with GB All In One Mod by tdunham and I have zero problems.

My only suggestion, any of the GB08 JB ROMs. Why? Because of Google Now and the latest version of TouchWiz really makes this phone look and feel like a GS3.
I will not suggest any specific ROM, they are all great.

First off, asking for the BEST rom is like asing for an ETA on here, we just don't do it. That being said I might as well go for an IB4TL...
I will go as far as telling you there are only 3 setups I found that my wife likes AND are quality products that she never has to worry about little nag things. I will not say one is better than the other but all are different enough that you would need to try all of them in order to make an informed decision... I highly suggest you read and ask specific questions in each of these threads. One thing I can tell you is all three of these devs are rock solid players that really take care of the user.

I've almost flashed all the roms, 9 of them.... I couldn't decide which one to use
- Baked Blackbean
- Paranoid Android
- Wild For The Night
- PAC in Black
- AOKP
- SlimBean
- Vanilla RootBox
- MotoBlur'd
They were all excellent
But I finally settled down with the XPERIAnceZen Rom

Those two posts are exactly why we don't condone these posts. There are many great developers here in E4GT land and these threads support favoritism/fan boy type of posts.
Read the OP for the ROMs, check the bugs list, read user comments. Then decide for yourself.
