Stable Jellybean ROM for Epic 4G?? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Just wondering if there is a stable Jellybean ROM for Epic 4G? I would like to use one as a daily driver.

also I'm looking for a good kernel for CM9.1 Stable ROM. Forgot to post that too...

Look in development. Paranoid android has lots of good reviews, and there is a cm10 build out but not sure how stable. As for kernels look for nyan colonel or shadow kernel. Have used both, but prefer nyan.

As of when I used it, it wasn't 100% stable. I think for now, you need to stick with CM9/7 or whatever you like. CM10 still has a bit to go to be a daily driver for everybody (some people are happy with it now, but many are waiting).

i have tried PA and I liked it but I couldn't get it to stock. I didn't need all the fancy UIs.

I've been using pa 1.99 for about a well and it's been a stable as anything since I came off of stock EC05...you can set the ui to "phone mode(hybrid mode off)" and not have to deal with alternate views.

Probably so, I'm running the Cm10 preview build now and it's pretty stable I'm running it with the nexus modem. The only thing I am having a problem with is being unable to get voodoo sound to work.

What I did to get rid of the voodoo color is flash a stock ICS kernel. And right now I installed the ParanoidAndroid ROM. And do you just flash the nexus modem?

I wasn't referring to voodoo color I meant voodoo sound, I paid for the voodoo sound plus app and it's suppose to inject the code which make voodoo sound work for whatever Rom without the need of a required kernel.
And to answer your question about flashing the nexus modem, you don't just flash it it require a patch for the modem to be flashed.
There are two threads in the Development section that will guide to flashing not only the nexus modem, but any modem you want.

it's okay
as long as you're willing to learn about modems and such you're good I'm pretty cautious about flashing anything on my phone, so trust me flashing modems is a piece of cake. You should really try CM10 the only problem I see with CM10 is not being able to switch roms until odining back stock.
I'm pretty sure you wouldn't want to switch Roms after running CM10 with that extra artery clogging butter. Lol

I advise you to make a backup, wipe the usual data and such. CM10 does something with MTD I can't recall, so wiping data would be in your best interest. And don't be alarmed while flashing CM10 your phone reboots and you get stuck on the Cyanogen screen. Wait a minute or so, remove battery put it back in and go back to recovery wipe data again and reflash CM10. Make sure you have JB GAPPS too flash right after you flash CM10.

Can you recommend some roms/kernels?

I just ordered this phone, should be getting it sometime next week. BTW Im coming from the MyTouch 4g slide. If you recommend any roms or kernels please post the link. Thanks.

I recommend AOKP or CM9. Both are AOSP based with AOKP being closer to pure Android 4.0. That said, it helps to just try out what is available and see what works for you.

Is stock ROM official ICS update or GB?
I got this phone 2 months and bounced around between Darkside, stock ICS rooted, and AOKP. I've flashed Eugene's streamlined kernel to AOKP. And I think that's where I'm staying. I love the ui changes and inbuilt cpu control. And with Groove IP I can do without native wifi calling. My advice is to try them each for a few days, even ones I didn't mention like cm9, and decide what fits your needs.

That's because 0623-03 IS Build 39, assuming you are referring to Whitehawkx's AOKP. Hercules is officially supported by Team Kang now, so you can get Build 40 from here:

Kernel overclocking
I'm using Darkside TLLE4.V1 and the 3.0.8-perf-T989DTTLE4-CL579656 kernel. Way good. One question though: I come the cpu is not overclockable over 1.5 ? I thought this kernel was open to overclocking, I would like to boost it up to 1.8. Any ideas?
stay away from the Resurrection remix rom flashed it yesterday and it installed but when i rebooted my phone never came back on and it still wont do anything

it looks like there are a bunch of darkside roms/kernels. which one are you using?
This may have been addressed before but for some reason I can not find an answer. I have tried AOKP and CM9 and I am having problems with the external SD card not being recognized by several apps (beyondpod is the main one). There is a setting for using the external only but then most of my games (EA titles) will not open. Is there anything that can be done? I am currently using Chicago rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1602332 and it seems to work correctly but I would like to start using the CM9 nightly builds. Thanks in advance.

To flash ICS or not?

Should I pull the trigger and flash ICS now with the release of source or should I wait a bit?
Which is better stock or AOKP??
Is aokp good enough for daily use?
which do you guys like better?

Honestly, I won't be using stock ICS because of the scroll speeds. It's just awful. I am running CM9 and, even before any source kernel changes, the battery life is great and it's totally stable.

I don't see what's wrong with flashing it now.. It's up to you.. I've flashed before source was put and couldn't be happier.. Not sure about AOKP.. But I been using Venum ice and blu Kuban.. And they have been great especially for daily use... Just was throwing that out there

My personal opinion, if you're new to ICS you may want to start on FF18 + rooted leak by sfhub.
This will get you either exactly to OTA or close enough, depending on if there were any differences in the OTA versus leak.
(It's still being checked at the moment.)
Then start reading on 2-3 ROMs - are the kernels made safe to avoid the eMMC lockup?
Most are now but doesn't hurt to verify.
Once you're up to date on the ROM then I'd say pull the trigger.
I'm planning on doing this myself pretty soon so just giving advice that I'm following on my own.

I think from what I've seen Times' AOKP and Agat are the only ones that have the source built kernels right now (and posted on a thread in the dev section.)... Agat says in his post that his kernel is only good on TW Roms for now.
I've personally run AOKP and CM9 for daily drivers (although I have not run the AOKP that he added the source kernel to yesterday yet.). You should be fine with either. Agat's kernel has the emmc bug fixed so it shouldn't brick. People have already confirmed that with Agat's Kernel, but I'm not sure if that was tackled in the AOKP kernel or not... Either way as long as you go back to the EL26-CWM 5.0.2.7 kernel you should be fine to flash from that.
EDIT: I just double checked the AOKP page and Times says that the EMMC brick bug is fixed.

[Q] Jelly Bean Stable ROM for T989D Telus SIIX?

Hello,
I am using T989D Telus Version. Though I am not using it on Telus and using it on Rogers tower. Currently on CM10 experimental, which is not that stable. Any one else have luck with using this version on Jelly Bean . I am currently suffering SOD a lot. So can you please let me know which version is very stable ?
Tried aokp? You can try changing governors to help your sod issue. Refer to the aokp thread

Honestly, it's a hit or miss, mine is completely stable..so are some others. While others aren't. Don't know what the difference is but I'm starting to think that the devices are different in the inside. Maybe different manufacturers on certain parts? Who knows. So just try it out. The rr and sod is clearly present, so if that happens try another Rom

Try AOKP JB by TheLastSidekick Oct. 9 build. It is super stable for me. No bugs, SODs, RRs, etc. You could also try Dougshells AOKP ROM because AOKP by TLS is based off of it so it should be as stable as it.

To avoid/minimize SOD's and RR's, don't forget to set governor to interactive and scheduler to deadline.
I've had the S2X since it came out. I'm running Dougshell's 10/10 build and haven't experienced a single SOD or RR. This is the first AOKP jb build I've used that doesn't have those issues. Solid daily driver.

Did you use TWRP as your recovery? if so, how did you load it on your phone? Ive tried doing it from GooManager but it wont work.
Also, should i go with the Stable AOKP ROM or is the nightly a better choice? the last stable was all the way back in July.

CM10 hands down.
I haven't had a single problem. Running 09/25 nightly right now
Been running Casper's aokp for a week now. Had two lockups on different builds but other than that no other issues, no flickering either. Running it with ktonz kernel @ 1809. Battery life is comparable to Free & Wicked's ICS roms. It's based off all the latest cm10 builds but with soo many more customization options such changing the background of your notification tray. I've heard good things about codenameandroid too.

What jelly bean rom are you using? And why?
I am using cm10 stable and love it and the reason why is that I'm a newbie it is the one pour stock android I can get on my Samsung galaxy s3. I think my next phone will be the google nexus 5 when ever that comes out or a new galaxy nexus.
I'm using the latest cm10 nightly and it has some glitches here and there but it's solid for most part.
I'm using Serenity. It's a port of JB from the Galaxy Note II.
Why this one and not something else? I wanted to keep the Touchwiz feel for a while longer and I've used Serenity ROMs in the past on a different device.
Using CM10. Bass over bluetooth doesn't work so I dropped back to an older build. Even the older ones still work fine. Running leankernel. Couldn't be happier with my phone!

Why this one and not something else? I wanted to keep the Touchwiz feel for a while longer and I've used Serenity ROMs in the past on a different device.

I too am using Serenity. I love it! How is your battery life?
Slimbean w/ lean kernel.
Nice combo.

Using CM10. Bass over bluetooth doesn't work so I dropped back to an older build. Even the older ones still work fine. Running leankernel. Couldn't be happier with my phone!

I tried to find something that really put this in layman's terms. This article, I think, will tell you exactly what you want to know. Easy peasy http://www.vikitech.com/8239/beginners-guide-android-kernels

You did install the kernel, you just didnt know it. The kernel gets installed with the ROM. But you can flash a different kernel at some other point if you want to. I generally find the stock kernels work well for me

I'm running BlackBean with LeanKernel all apps inverted along with inverted JB 4.2 keyboard. Why? I used BlackBean on my old Nexus S, inverted stuff saves a ton of battery life on our SAMOLED screens, the combo is overall damn smooth and the kernel also helps to save that battery life while maintaining buttery smoothness. Couldn't be happier.
LiquidSmooth RC9 with leankernel. Seems to be working pretty good so far. A couple of complaints here and there (had an issue with phone crashing every time I received a call, some minor annoyances with music playback) but for the most part it's very speedy and stable.

I'm using the same currently.. What kernels are you guys using.. Also do you have any volume issues like extremely loud or flat when plugging in via car...
