[Q] G/F Friendly Set-up

Hey guys, I got a Nexus a few months ago and passed the Epic to the g/f (which I regret). Anyway, I have AOKP 35.1 on it and she is having issues. Maybe I forgot some Epic flashing routes.
The phone has EI22 baseband and I am looking to find the best g/f friendly rom (one where I can flash for her and have zero problems).
What do you think is the safest set up?
*Its been a while since I flashed on the Epic. I am on EI22 and I see EL30 is the newest build for GB. Do I need to use odin to get that, or can I just flash on top of EI22?
**I see FC09, is that the newest official?

Try cm7 or the peoples rom. The peoples is TW based it really is a matter of taste. I have my wife on CM7 which she loves she hates TW.

She prefers TW, and I was thinking the Peoples Rom. Where i get lost is all of the MTD, BML stuff. I dont remember having all of those options before.
What is the process to go to the Peoples from where I am? AOKP with EI22... I think EXT4 (is there a way to check?)

If you're on aokp you are on mtd... fc09 is the newest ota release... if she likes tw then clean gb el30 (she will be bugged by update message) or the peoples rom 2.2 (fc09) would be the best way to go...

Backup with Titanium Backup, download The People's ROM v2.2 MTD, wipe data, cache and Dalvik. Flash, choose to use or not use the Sprint Connections Optimizer, sign in to her Google account to sync contacts, restore her third party apps and only data she absolutely has to have...like Angry Birds high score or something...lol.

I agree with UBER 100%. If you're okay with being lectured each time her phone freezes or needs updated... Go for it, but your better off having her be pissed at Sprint for her phone issues than you.
I've put my wife's Epic back to Stock and life has been better. Just looking out for my brothers on XDA.

So far all issues were resolved with clean installs, V 6 Supercharger or turning off the Optimizer because of bad 4G due to Sprint. 3000 downloads strong, seems pretty solid to me but I may be biased.

Idk... I've never had not 1 problem... so not biased, truthful! I jusst didn't want him to put tpr on and then have to worry bout the supercharger and all that... but op, like I said, I have had not 1 problem with tpr, so if you'd rather her be on the latest, go with tpr cuz like kenny said,, all issues (if you even run into any) can be solved VERY easily....

Lol... no offense but if you almost broke up over a rooted phone the relationship musnt have been to great... my wifes phone is rooted and when something messes up she just asks me to fix it... if you don't mind fixing her phone all the time if she messes something up, you should be good to go (depending on if your girl blows things out of proportion or not)... no offense to anybody on any of this... if somebody loves you, they won't bite your head off for something going wrong with a phone!

She just gets nasty over some stupid crap sometimes. Plus, she travels a lot so I don't get much chance to work on the phone. Anyway, that was a year ago.

My lady likes to run whatever I am on. I find this useful for troubleshooting. If I can't recreate an issue on both, it's not a real issue. I made her sit on stock unrooted for a few days last month when she got a replacement phone from dropping it, and she couldn't wait to get back on an ICS rom. She made it through the random reboots on gb leaks, so anything out these days is easy for her to handle. It really depends on the individual. My techy ways have rubbed off on her over the years lol. She is smart enough to use her ipod (i know...) on wifi with a free messaging app to ask for help in the few situations that confuse her. She's a looker, does laundry, is a great mother, works, and cooks extremely well too! Needless to say we are getting married this July. I'm not sure exactly why I waited 14 years to ask her when I say it like that lol.

I cant agree with this strongly enough, though I may not have gone as far as saying no root.
Just remember, ANYTHING that goes wrong will be your fault, even if it has nothing to do with the phone itself (ie: tower down for upgrade, facebook update breaks the app, etc)

I'm so ready for the S3 it's not even funny

This is my first and last LG device ever. I've had it since launch and it's so god damned buggy it drives my insane.

This was an anger fueled thread since I just now couldn't answer the god forsaken phone.

so, what exactly did you do with your phone? broke it against the wall? burned it?

What is the point of this thread???
You don't like this phone, but I do.

make sure yu drop back by and tell us all how much more wonderful your life is with a s3!

It's clearly a troll post.
btw the phone with the stock rom it's not buggy at all.
It may be slower than its specs suggest, but everything works as it should and it still has the very best screen of the whole smartphone market

Far from a troll post. Just fed up with this phone. Not being able to answer my phone sent me over the edge. Sorry for the rant.

sorry for that, but maybe it's just a bad sample.. warranty repair?

You might have a lemon, did you try and exchange for another one?

Why wouldn't you be able to answer a call?! I've never had that issue at all.

My first 2 units suffered from hot reboots and dropped data even on stock roms. I hosed my 2nd phone and the third is on the way. I've been using my Epic 4G Touch this week and it flat out smokes the Nitro. Even running CM9 overclocked, the Nitro is slower than a stock GS2. I love the screen on the Nitro but the battery life and bugginess make it hard to deal with sometimes. I still think that a finished build of CM9 or even LG's version of ICS can make it the phone it should've been.

You should dump CM9 and go with the official ICS leak, WAY faster than CM9.

I did and got the "Security Error" lockup after a reboot. My gf called for a replacment after I spent a few hours trying to fix it. Think I'll pass on the leak this time. That connection error I got when trying to reflash the leak drove me mad.

Jellybean for epic 4G touch

Does anyone know if the Samsung epic touch 4g is going to get the jellybean OTA?
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium

If it's like ICS I would say you will get a good stable build from Cyanogenmod before Samsung does anything.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

No, we will not get Jellybean OTA, we were lucky enough to get ICS OTA, and the OTA ICS we did get is full of bugs and issues. AOSP is you're best bet.

Samsung did announce sg2, 3 and notes will all get jellybean. How quick sprint does an ota is different.

Jelly Bean OTA
Also, just to add.....If the GS2 for some reason does not get the full JB update, Samsung said they will release an update with different features from JB.

For those that followed the fh13 may find more info on the jb update from an inside source.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

I dont see why not. The E4GT is still a high end phone and should be able to handle JB. But Sprint will most likely take a long time to roll it out and by then, we'll have a stable cm10 build

im pretty sure after all the gnex do. hell even the nexus s has it already

With the disaster that ics turned into I can't see jb doing any better.
The Epic is a high end gingerbread device, and will always be a top contender in the gingerbread arena.

I'm sorry but I'm tired of seeing you post the same thing over and over and over again. We all get it, you don't like ICS, or it doesn't work well for you, maybe it kicked your dog... something... be that as it may this is only your OPINION. You refer constantly to the ICS debacle. I'm not sure what this means, as ICS seems to work very well for the large majority of users around here. I'm sure at this point you be tempted to bring up what you think are bugs. Keep in mind these issues do not apply to the vast majority of users. Keep in mind that most of the people posting about how bad ICS is don't even understand why not doing a full wipe and keeping the GB app framework would cause the majority of the issues they are having. Keep in mind most of the people posting these issues seem to be allergic to research and problem solving skills, instead choosing to post "dis broke,y u no fix it for me naow!"The only issue I EVER had with ICS was sub par battery life until I took the time to set things up properly, then I was back to 18-24 hours to a charge with ~4 hours of screen time. Insofar as JB I've been running sbrissens aosp, it is fantastic, definitely an improvement on ICS and I can't wait to see how awesome it ends up given its useability in these really early alphas- I've had no problems using it as a daily driver....lastly as to why you think this is a "GB device" I just simply do not understand. The hardware in this phone is still better than 3/4 or more of the devices currently on the market. Are you telling me you don't think a class leader, like the e4gt, is capable of receiving an os upgrade ~7 months after its launch. Hell, until June this was still the best phone out. Hell, ICS runs awesome on the og evo and the damn hd2! The argument that this phone is a "gingerbread device" is just downright stupid, sorry.
I did not mean to flame you nor am I trying to be an ass. But I've seen you post the same thing so many times I finally had to say something. Your opinion is not fact.
And on topic yes I think we'll see official jb, I could care less though, other than for kernel source , I'm never leaving aosp/cm10/eventually aokp jb for anything... too good...

Is it the new 4.1 update? Because when I flashed it, it was horrible. It was also the Alpha 2. I kept getting lost signal, my 4G kept dropping, my phone stayed in Airplane mode when I turned it on. I kept having to do a reboot.
I don't think I'll be using CM10 until an Alpha 5. I'm running CM9 Alpha 6 and it's running nice for me now.

All those issues have been mostly fixed in the alpha build. There's little to no reports on LOS now. I suggest you give it a try again, you're missing out

I guess Google Voice Dial is still broken and that's a Google issue that only they can fix. If so, that and the small and dark desk dock screen are enough to keep Jelly Bean from being a daily driver for me on any phone.

Phone Freezes right after 4G is turned on

My epic 4g touch freezes right after I turned on 4G data connection. It just happened today and it happens every time I turn 4G on. It never froze before when I used it. Anyone know how to fix this?
The only thing that changed from before to now is me updating my avast, google search, and adobe air. Could one of these be the problem?

Stock Rooted GB27. I did use the adblocker in rom toolbox but that was a while ago and 4G was working fine back than. This only started yesterday. What I mention above is what I did the day before it freezes when 4G connection is on.

You could try a re-flash, that may clear it up.
Romtoolbox sometimes doesn't play nice with jb.
Also you can try adhostblocking zip, using cwm.

I was on stock rooted FL24. 4G data was working for weeks when I was on GB27. Then out of no where, it just started freezing when I turn 4G connection on.

Try rest- installing your modem, go to Rwilcos's repository, find Jb roms get a GB08 one click modem and GB27 one click modem download both, extract the GB08 and install. Test your 4g, if it solves the issue test for a while then flash gb27 and see how that goes.

No. I have never drop the phone. I tried again today and once 4g connected, the phone was responsive; but once I saw the arrows light up for data going in or out, it freezes right away at that point.

I think I figured out what caused the freeze. I think it was avast security. After I uninstalled it, 4G was working again. Then when I reinstalled, 4G freezed again. So I uninstalled and it's working again.

Now why would you install something like that on your phone?

Some tips for more battery with your setup.
1. Lower brightness to 10 - 20%
2. Disable unnecessary sync or set to every 2 hrs. Or more.
3. Disable haptic feedback.
4. Backlight set to 30sec or 2min max.
5. If you have games disable in game notifications.
6. Greenify will take care of the rest.

I agree with the OP. In my opinion, Samsung did a good job with jelly bean for this phone. However ice cream sandwich IMHO was terrible to the point where the phone was almost unusable.
Some times I think that the E4GT can't handle jelly, bc my phone freezes way more often than it ever did on gingerbread.

I soft bricked over the weekend and sprint tech's said no go have to get a new phone however I new it still had a heart beat and hope. After alot of trial and error, and not knowing what I was doing but I fianlly restored it to life. Went from being rooted to being stock and other than the app tweaks i liked from Xposed settings. Everything seems to run better and smoother it is kind a like tasting an awkward yet intriguing foood you've never eaten. Thinkning about running stock for a few days and seeing if I can handle not being able to get into tablet mode.
Would like to get back to the same tech's that said no go and say an old man never giving up got it to work even though he is not sure how?
Besides I will probably get more done if I'm not always trying to keep up to date with the nightlies.

I wanted to stop reading after your first sentence. But I continued reading anyway.
First of all, they want you to buy a new phone. If you can see the splash screen it can almost always be recovered by flashing a full tar or one click. Don't ever listen to the morons Sprint hires.

Your going to fall in love with your phone all over again. :thumbup:
And your right, your phone should not add to what you already have on your plate, your phone just needs to come on when you need it and be able to use it without having to wipe, reboot, reinstall a modem or reflash anything.
That's what stock or stock/rooted can do for you.
I'm running Kobridge's gb27 st/rooted/deodexed rom and Tdunham's AIO mod. Stock but cool.!!!!

Bloatware and all it seems pretty zippy and I do like everything working like it was intended. I only miss tablet mode for email and Gmail other wise I've been pretty content. I do thnk they did a good job.
I feel like an outcast running stock.
Hello I'm a flash junkie running stock are you going to try and catch me running clean.....

I'm pretty happy with my S2. GB27 is very smooth and the battery life fluctuates, but I normally get a full day out of it. Everything is buttery smooth, even with Nova Launcher. Plus, I'm rooted and can delete all the bloatware.
