[Q] Enable VR Music Skip E4GT - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I have reached a point where I have fully accepted Ice Cream Sandwich. The only thing that I miss is the ability to long press on my volume rocker to go to the next or previous track. I often carry my phone in my pocket with music playing and it was so great to be able to change the song with out ever taking my phone out of my pocket.
I had a Calkulin zip file that I could flash via recovery to enable this feature but it was for EL29. Is this possible for stock FI03 ROM running AGAT_0.5.4 Kernal?

Make a backup , flash it and see if anything happens lol
If you brick I'm not responsible.lol

I have actually tried that and it went into a boot loop. The zip file contains an android.policy.jar file located in system/framework folder. Maybe I should provide a link to the zip file and someone could compare it with the ICS jar file.

If it's just a policy edit it shouldn't be terribly hard to port it, however I haven't taken a look at it yet. I'll try to check it out tomorrow if no one else does.

Let me if know if you need me to upload the zip file and provide a link for comparison purposes.

installing boot screen

I downloaded the evo pissing on the iphone.. I thought I could do recovery since it says its signed on the zip. Didn't work.. tried adb push pull.. Didn't work.. don't have any boot screen.. Can someone help me?

Since you just downloaded I would assume you got the zip that is fixed. If you flashed it as normal in Recovery then there should be no issues. What Recovery are you using?

Well I did it the easier way. I bought the root explorer since astro wouldn't copy or paste. I just copied it to both media and customize folders.. it worked but they have the wrong boot screen. Its not the android pissing on the iPhone. Just says android with a light glare going left to right on the words.. anyone know anywhere else I could find this boot screen?

That's where I got the animation. Also to no aveil I can't get it to work. I thought it wasnthe zip. File but I think its the right one. I have no boot screen at all. I took out the zips I put in media and customize and have the zip that was in there previously back in. Nothing.. not sure what to do. I even used that program that you just out the zip in and does it for you and that didn't work. I'm lost.

So I put the bootanimated.zip to data/local, system/media and system/customize and still nothing. Anybody?

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?

Oh alright. I was gonna root it tomorrow because I didn't wanna root it the first day I got it. But do you have to flash another ROM for it to go away?
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?

Real Sound Improvement Superloud Volume

If you want to have louder volume Flash this zip. It was developed by Meltus SG3 Developer but it works on our phone. You can flash the zip or open the zip and place default.gain file to system/etc. and reboot afterwards to hear the difference it really works great with headphones. If you want to change the volume find 'AIF1 Boost volume' and change value from anything 1 to 63. You can edit the files yourself to the volume you want it to be but anything over 63 might break the sound so don't push it. I have mine on set to 60 with PowerAmp it's superloud and I love it LOUD!!!! More info go to this thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1722136&page=1
Did everything you said and working great. Got it set at 60 also and loving it. Thanks

Does it matter which recovery you use? I use TWRP and it keeps giving me the flash failed error message. This is actually the first file I have tried flashing since I switched from CWM to TWRP. I can just place it in the system folder no problem. Just curious if this is a know issue with TWRP.
So I edited all the AIF1 Boost volumes to 55... it didn't seem to make a difference. Is 55 too low.? I sent it to the pc and edited it in text pad.. Then emailed it back to myself. Then I used root explorer to put it in system /etc.

I did this also. No change, I am using Darkside TW based rom. I wonder if that matters. This doesn't really seem to do anything. My wife has the exact phone as me so I have a reference point to compare. There is no difference between her phone volume and mine.
The Zip file has a problem, it doesn't want to install and I downloaded 2 times already. Please fix it and re upload it.

I noticed in the file there are some lines that indicate you could adjust the in call volume. If you also adjust this to 60 would that work? Is this mod designed to accomplisht that?
Ok has anyone got this to work?i compared the default zip to the 63 zip and i don't see any difference and the file you said to change is still at 0....i don't get it and also the 63 zip had other files in Chinese what do they do?

Actually, I flashed this and there is NO difference in volume sound what-so-ever.
And ACTUALLY, I never found any sound "tweaks" that really worked, except
the app. Volume+ version 1.7.1. (Please remember the Version, as any version higher than that will NOT work).
So, if you REALLY want loud, LOUD sound, try Volume+ V1.7.1!!!!
And for the OP, please take the Volume+ v.1.7.1.apk and see why it is the only
one that REALLY makes a difference in volume LOUDNESS...
It seems that nobody can reproduce that performance yet....(Are you man enough for that challenge??)

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...

MORE STUFF BUT CANT REMEMBER.

How to Instal:
1) Download the zip and transfer it to your device.
2) (optional) download any optional stuff (like the apps above),and transfer it to your device.
3) Do a Nandroid backup.
4) Did you do Step 3) ? Do it NOW
5) Format /system

OR you can do Dark side Super Wipe and skip steps 5 to 7.

10) Flash any Blaze Radio
11) boot the device and WAIT BE PATIENT.
12) Flashing will be successful: You will see the Samsung JB bootanimation, then you will see SAMSUNG logo (glow animation), at this point your touch key lights should be on (dalvik cache being built). If the touch key lights are not lit up, you are soft bricked, go back to recovery, wipe data and cache and reboot.

Solutions to common issues.
Anyone having problem with the data first wait for 10 min on the initial startup then restart the phone and flash the modems listed.
If that didn't work manually enter apn in the settings.
Hmmm, first. I just feel like saying that lol. Trying to rival my and Tmo's groups's TweakWiz, I see, eh ?

Awesome release. I like how you have those optional finals to be flashed.
I have a question though. I want to use that clock add on, but on a different ROM (LS RC9). I placed it in system apps folder, set permissions, reboot, and its not showing up.
So this fully functional? Everything works except signal bars? Is it smooth and fast?
