[Q] [ ROM ] Calkulin's E4GT v2.9 Stock browser turns off phone screen.?? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hi All,
Just flashed Calk's 2.9 rom and noticed that when i go to the stock browser on the five icons on home, it turns off my screen, Only way to gain functionality of the phone again is to hold power button and reboot. Not sure if its due to flashing a new modem FB21. Anyone else experience this?

Just switched back to his default GO Launcher, and it works fine for me. Also works fine from Launcher Pro.
Does you screen cut out when you select the default browser grin the app drawer, too?
The answer may be to try flashing again...

[Q] loStKernel App drawer problem

Ok so i am a noob to android and cant post in the loStkernel thread. but i am seeing an issue with it. after flashing it using CWM i can no longer change pages using the dots on the bottom, only through flipping one by one. i use that feature a lot. i had dome some other things since flashing it so i restored back to a few days ago and bam it was working again with a differnt kernel. so i flashed loStkernel stable again and it stopped working again. so it must be that. anyone else have this issue? dont know what else it could be.
thanks
noone else has this problem? i dont know what else it could be. as i said i flashed back to a stable state and everything works fine. as soon as i load the LoStKernel it messes up. so it would have to be that. five more posts and i can get this in the right thread. thanks

What do you mean by stable state? What are you flashing? I'm running the current stable loStKernel and I can click the App drawer pages just fine in Go Launcher EX. I assume you're running the stock TouchWiz launcher?
I am using lostkernel in the Starburst ROM, and I don't have this problem.
I don't use the Touchwiz launcher either but switched to it for a test.
I'm on the Latest LOS stable kernel. With TouchWiz Launcher. On Home screen dots work fine but in App drawer they do not work.
I normally use launch Pro and it doesn't have the Dots and it is just and endless scroll of apps but wanted to test it and you are correct.

Are you referring to experimental version with overclock?

no i am talking about the stable version and yes i am using stock touchwiz at the moment. good to hear that at least someone else has this problem. so it appears to be a problem between touchwiz and the LoStKernel. i am on a stock pulled kernel right now after getting rid of the yellow triangle and have no los. i ran the eg30 plus for a little while but got los once a day at least. so lostkernel was working great except for this app drawer issue. so i guess if i use a different rom with a different launcher with lost kernel i will be fine. to bad there is this one problem. thanks everyone for the responses.

by stable state i mean with a stock kernel with cwm and no rom with everything working correctly.
can someone maybe post this in the lostkernel thread? i am still a few away from that.

just wanted to know if anyone with the new stable version can test this and see if it is still a problem.

"unofficial" S3 AOKP Q/A thread..

It's obvious why I made this. Post all your questions here and hopefully they will get answered. Be patient!
I'll start the thread..
Q: When group messaging with GO SMS PRO (only app I know of that works with iPhone's for group chat) after a few minutes my group messages disappear and all I see are random single digit numbers instead of my contacts with the conversations separated in them. Only occurs for group messages, not individual messaging. Why is this? Something to do with data stability? I'd take an SS, but I cleared all of them earlier. When it happens again I'll take an SS.

1) Because AOKP isn't touchwhiz
2) Flash stock rom if you want that option.
noob question
hey all i have a question or 2.
1- what is the difference between Sammy (Kernel), and AOKP Task & Ktoonsez Run train (rom) ?
2- do you flash AOKP Task & Ktoonsez Run train (rom) then Sammy (Kernel) ?
yeaaa i know stupid noob question but i guess we all have to start some where.
thanks for understanding.
Bluetooth to headunit
so I'm running latest aokp by task650 &ktoonsez for my sgs3 att, so the issue is when i use poweramp (latest version available on play store) it wont send track info to my head unit, i had someone suggest to go to misc - tweaks and enable both Bluetooth options but i tried that and still just says stop on the head unit. anybody have any ideas? it worked fine in stock rom.
Still having issues with aosp cam with task and ktoonsez aokp rom. The camera works with other camera apps like 360 camera and ucam but not the aosp cam. The exact symptom is that the app will always freeze within 10 seconds of the app opening no matter if i touch the phone or not. The zoom slider never appears and I'm unable to interact with the app like changing the settings or anything.
I have tried numerous flashes including every version release so far. I always do a factory reset in cwm, delete cache partition, dalvik cache, and format system. I've also used the cwm flashable camera fix that is posted in both at&t development forums. In a last ditch effort I went back to stock, performed a factory reset from there insuring that my phone was a complete clean slate and the aosp camera app still didn't work when installing fresh aokp with no apps or any settings changed at all in the rom.
I'm at a loss here as the default cam app works in cm9 and cm10 but I want my aokp damn it!

Soft keys not working

I'm on Aerovan's most recent (8/22, I think?) build of CM9. It's been much more stable than previous builds from him, but I have a problem. It's happened on his builds, as well as the leak RUU and Black Ice AOKP.
My soft keys just stop working. Not the back light, as some people have complained about. I mean all four of them. No home, no menu, no back, and no search. I've worked around the no home by adding my launcher as a shortcut on the lock screen, but I'm sure you can imagine how frustrating that is. I know on some AOKP/AOSP builds you can add a navigation bar.
So my questions are:
1. Does anyone know how to fix this? I've tried rebooting, rebooting wit a battery pull... Nothing brings it back anymore.
2. If I flash from Aerovan to, say Black Ice, should I do a clean wipe? I'm never sure when I should do a full wipe and when I should do just a cache wipe.
Thanks!

It's a "feature" that I don't care for either. To restore the original functionality see this thread.
Edit...for your second question, I almost always do a full wipe, and especially if switching to a different rom. It does take a little longer, but usually pays for itself in the long run by having less problems.
Thanks, but the is a post about fixing a back light issue... My issue isn't about the back light, it's the soft keys themselves not working. I'm wondering if it's my phone, because it's done it across several ROMs...

Nvm... Yes sounds like it may be hardware if it persists in multiple roms.
I un-rooted back to stock (bootloader and ROM) and am still having the issue. Will be taking the phone back to Best Buy tomorrow for a replacement. Thanks for the help, though!

[Discussion] FI25 Leak

Thanks to rockypr for his idea to do this on FH23. List all the fixes, bugs, additions or whatever you want to discuss about the FI25 Leak.
I will start.
Additions/Changes:
1. Removed ability to choose between MTP or Mass Storage.
2. Removed the Back up and reset option under settings.
3. Much more stable! "rwilco12"
4. Feels super smooth !"rwilco12"
5. Picture messages now send on 3G. "rwilco12"
6. Connections seem to be much faster. "rwilco12"
7. Battery percentage icon is off by default again. "rwilco12"
8. Several updated bloatware apps. "rwilco12"
9. Connection Optimizer is removed. "tdunham"
10. Bootanimations appear to be working again. "tdunham"
11. Removed contact tab from dialer again. "manufan721"
12. Out of Office editing works again! "rwilco12"
13. Battery monitor for devs is removed. "rwilco12"
14. Sprint Zone has a voice. "rwilco12"
15. It seems they added an extra font called Helvetica Neue. "Dvin211"
Bugs/Issues:
1. The Recent Apps thing, where it isn't transparent if you have 3 or less apps in it, still exists.
2. The led notification light does not pulse while charging. "someguyatx"
3. Bluetooth is not functioning properly. "grncherry" For me it was constantly dropping the connection.
4. My WiFi just stopped connecting out of the blue.
Some quotes from the community:
Hmmm.....i flashed and it seemed laggy to me, modem worked great. "manufan721"
This modem really helped with low signal. "revamper"
Data speeds greatly improved and get signal before where i never used to! "elliwigy"
Holy crap this ROM is fricken smooth! Scrolling on it is nice finally! "daniel4653"
Coming from FI03 I'm finding this build to be laggy at times with a couple freeze ups when opening apps- Market , Gmail & Working in settings which reminds me of the young ICS bad days. Data transfer is slower. "sling"
I went back to FH13 today. FI25:not good modem. very slow. Some hicups opening apps. They took away some functions. :banghead: I did not feel much improvement from FH13 or to be more accurate from FI03. "Omar04"
Battery life has greatly increased. "IamFlynn"
I'll second Omar on the FH25 modem. Its terrible for me. The ROM is alright, a little bit smoother and more crisp than FH13, but not enough for me to change my daily setup. "boXerrumble "

Fu#*! I didn't notice that yet. Haven't had a chance to use the rom yet. That blows. I don't know why they are mucking with it so much. I don't understand why they removed the mass storage option or the backup feature either. As far as it being laggy I am not noticing that part. Seems really smooth and fluid for me.

Some things that I've noticed:
Agat's FI03 repack instead of FI25 kernel seemed to give me even better signal. Asked Tray to test as well but didn't work for him.
The buttons between contacts and dialer - which were nice - are gone again
Wonder if they're cutting down because the ROM was as big as it was...?

wow this is the second best comment i ever came across here at XDA ;P
a few months back a good guy at fascinate forums responded like this when a fantastic ROM update came. He said
* Thanks OP, this thing got me laid last night , my GF just loved it *
Feedback
I don't mind installing stuff like this, especially if it fixes the issues im having, I can handle most of the tech hurdles, however I wish there was some kinda of feedback mechanism. Clearly 'they' aren't just writing the ROMs for fun....
Just some more stuff I've found.
- Out of Office editing works again!
- Battery monitor for devs is removed.
- Sprint Zone has a voice... Maybe I'm imagining this one but it wasn't in previous builds, right? Correct me if I'm wrong on this one.
this is irrelevant but is anyone having power button issues? mine is seriously messing up now.
Also, they better have not removed mass storage.

That is not the issue. The led notification light does not pulse while charging in Touchwiz ics builds. It worked in GB Touchwiz roms and it works in Aosp roms. You can use controls in aosp roms to make the light flash blue and red or the app blink or lightwave can make the light flash blue. Its very handy.
I'm running stock with Tunein Radio Pro & slacker radio installed.

Battery life not so good but that may change after settle in hmm heck I'm going back to FI03.

Ah I gotcha now ..sounds to me more like a feature that was removed in ICS not so much a bug to be fixed
In addition to the warning CJ posted, can we get a clear explanation about the stock kernel issue too please?
Here is an excerpt from Kobridge's forum by Leaderbuilder:
"Well flashed this and liking it so far but here are some things I've found. Stock kernel worked (works). But when I tried to Mobile Odin a source built kernel with recovery (Agat's 5.4 or RUjeluss' 1.8) the phone locke up on boot and required a battery pull.
To get it back to functioning I had to PC Odin the FI03 Agat's kernel (Couldn't use the FI25 one click from the repository it kept failing md5 check). Then I was able to boot back up.
Then tried to Mobile odin back to FI25 kernel via Mobile Odin and the same thing happened - stuck at boot screen. So back to PC Odin One-click and use FI03 Agats and booting again."

[Q] CleanBean v4.0 (Issues)

I'm running a Sprint Galaxy S3, I went from fully stock ROM / Kernel to CleanBean v4.0 and I have noticed some issues with my LCD, At first I thought it was my Kernel, But then after reading through all the comments on CleanBean thread no one has my issues. So I'm not sure what is wrong with it. But this is what it does, When I'm not using it for awhile and the screen is off, I randomly will grab it and start to use it. And it will "Look" as if the phone has shut off. (Screen won't turn on etc) But my LCD notification lights are still on and blinking normally. So then I have to power button it for a long time, Then it will finally reboot. This has happened about 4-6 times so far and only when I'm not using the phone. It has yet to screw up like that during use. So if someone knows what could cause this please help me!
Is clean bean AOSP? If so, is it using the 3.4 kernel?
If not, did you do a clean flash to CleanBean and check the md5sum of your download?
EDIT: Nvm, just found the thread
Make sure it wasn't a bad download

I'm not running Clean Bean, here's my experience. I know that there are some apps that are poorly coded... In particular, there are some games where if I turn the screen off while playing, will do something similar when I try to turn the screen back on. When I press the power button, the hard keys light up but not the screen. I think it has something to do with how the app handles the screen-off (sleep)/screen-on (wake) commands.
Are there any apps that you use regularly that might be causing this?

No I have not yet done that. I was hoping it was something simple to fix. I will try that though. Do you mind pming me links or posting here the Roms you like and that are good? I'm new to the GS3 so I have no clue what ROM's are good.

I do have alottt of games on it. But I do remember never leaving the screen on in a game..Might have done that with Firefox or something but not a game. I'll test it a few times with games / Locking it etc. Thanks for that idea.
Just tried MOAR ROM, ReFlashed it 4 times. Boots up to Recovery on restart..Then I restart it from recovery and then it sits there for more then 15mins. So I'm out of ideas, Other good stable roms out there?
