Mods for stock rooted EL29? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

This rom has been working very well for me so I don't want to mess around with another rom but I'm really looking to add these 3 mods if possible:
1. turn off all camera noises
2. Sprint Hot spot with 3g/4g
3. Battery % in status bar.
Anyway to do this on stock rooted EL29?

Its all in the development section. Do people not like to read nowadays?
Go here for the hotspot..

And here for the other stuff. PS if you do this one it includes the hotspot so no need for the first link.

Thanks, I was looking in Themes/Mods...

Just make sure you read this post as there were issues with stock rooted and the AIO mod until sfhub came up with a fix the other day.

Do either of you guys happen to have this file for the camera mod? It isn't included in the all in one .zip. dev-host.org/42wusjh4stgt/EL29ModifiedCamera-Odexed.zip

You flash it separately. I had it but took it off once I realized using the volume keys to snap pics killed off my zooming in and out. If anybody knows another way to zoom in with this modified camera please let me know. I definitely would like a physical button for snapping pics but not at the loss of another option..

Pinch to zoom in and out when using modified camera. Hope it helps.

[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.
that would be my old volume hack

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.

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

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

Camera shutter sound

I picked up the E4GT today and it is great. But whenever I snap a picture, the shutter sound goes off. Is there a way to turn it off?

You will have to root your phone to do that. They have taken the sound out on custom Rome it great

Sent from my Samsung Epic 4G Touch using XDA Premium
pritty much because its baked into the camera apk and its a real pita to remove it otherwise
I think so or you have to know what file to take out of the rom to make it work. If I was you I would try out some of the roms there great. Calk rom is very fast and has great battery life too u should try it just remember to a nand backup of the stock so you can go right back to it if you don't like the other roms

Alright I'll root my phone when I get home
Sent from my Samsung Epic 4G Touch using XDA Premium
Specifically you have to replace the camera.apk (and its support file) with one that's been repackaged without the shutter sound. Also remove a few other .ogg files from the phone. If you search the forum for "shutter sound" you'll find the appropriate instructions. This was what finally got me to root.
You can actually just download one of the silentcamera apps that will kill the shutter but still leave the little beep. But you want completely silent then you have to root and us the development here on the board.
Hang on, I got this buddy.
Go Here
1: Download the camera.apk (rename it to Camera.apk after unzipping).
2: Move it to /system (should everwrite the stock camera).
3: Change permissions to match all other /system/app permissions
4: Reboot
Also, make sure to delete the shutter and video sounds in /system/media/ui - the instructions in the thread will give you all this info too.
Happy shooting!
Can't you just remove the ogg sound file in /system/media/ui?

ICS Power Off/Reboot and Portable Hotspot Fixes

I by no means take credit for these but I can confirm they are working for me. I got these from the Skyrocket forums:
To fix the power off/reboot freeze issue do the following:
Make a CWM Nandroid backup of the ICS ROM. Then do a restore of the backup you just made without wiping anything. Reboot and test it out. It worked perfect for me.
Not sure why it works but it must have something to do with the restore scripts being used. They must somehow correct the power off/reboot issue.
To fix the portable hotspot issue do the following:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24134762&postcount=25
This has been tested by me and it works like a charm.

Unfortunately I think the auto-rotate issue is kernel related so we have to wait for a specific kernel for our phones. I downloaded an app from the market "Auto-Rotate Status Bar Switch" and it seems to work pretty well.
ok thanks will try it right now and I leave at 6 am for my job and I have much time for that lolll
That app doesn't help. Still rotates into landscape when I'm in a portrait mode.

Told me tethering is not supported ???
Samsung galaxy s2 almost ics lol
so im using Ravers blackedition rc3, with the ICS theme designed for rc2.
originally, rc3 had the shutdown/restart thing fixed, but flashing the theme broke it.
i tried your method but no luck for me.
im sure this still probably can work for those not using any themes tho
Yea what ROM are you running cause I tried both fixes and no luck
Samsung galaxy s2 almost ics lol
i am trying your method to get tethering to work...i followed your instructions and everything was good up until setting it up...i got to the skyrocket connected part...but when i hit my menu button nothing happens...i dont get the menu to set the SSID and pw
my laptop can pick up the skyrocket signal but it asks for a pw...and i dont know what it is since i didnt set one
edit: found your original thread and read the comments from another user...you have to tap on the word hotspot and then go into that page and then hit menu to configure...thanks!

Flash this zip right after you flash the rom. Since this is basically the version I posted in the ATT forum this zip will change the build.prop to show T999 instead of i747 http://d-h.st/loh Everything will work without flashing the zip but your phone will be identified as a i747 not a t999]
Disclaimer: I am not responsible if you flash this and your device gets bricked or anything happens to your device from flashing this.
Devs: Feel free to use this as your base

I'll take this one too

I'll have a fix for that. It was my absentmindedness that forgot to update the libs when I updated the rom today. there is a short term way to fix it(if you prefer the stock kernel) until I can upload a updated one with the correct libs. You can flash ktoonsez's custom kernel and it will fix the wifi as it has the correct libs. I'll be able to upload a fix later (as long as I still have power if the storm is as bad as they say it's going to be)

I actually kinda like it, Because you can hold it one handed if you need to zoom in. It's useful on the nyc subway when you're holding a handrail and reading through things when I can only use one hand. but yeah, there should be an option to turn it off

Working photosphere
I haven't tested yet, but im about to flash it
edit: ok it works if you make the edits to the build.prop as mentioned in that thread. Thing is i think the sensors might be a little screwy on our phone. I'm running paranoid 2.5 and its a little off. Don't know if its the rom but its off
Everything else works great though
I edited my build.prop and flashed this, it looks like a great idea but it doesn't seem to like the gyroscope in the E4GT very well. Everything is backwards.

It works fine, and the panorama mode loads and starts to work. However, my gyro is all over the place. left is up, right is diagonally off somewhere, etc etc. I wonder if this is unique. Did / can someone try it out and see if the gyro works right on our device?
So is this worth installing?

Oh ok haha thanks! Interesting that it did that
Every app reads the build.prop to see what the model is. Since we changed it to say Galaxy Nexus instead of SPH-D710, the XDA app reads the phone as a Nexus. Not very complicated at all.
