Re: [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.0.0-Alpha 1

I agree! This is a very sexy rom! Battery life could be a little better but its not that bad. I'm sure it will improve as updated builds come from the devs.

I know if you hold down the Home button it brings up a list of recent apps. It is almost like the cards idea from Palm and HP's WebOS. When the recent apps load up just swipe away the apps you dont want open and they should close (assuming it performs in the same way as WebOS "card idea").

I dont know if this is similar to the task manager of previous android versions. Because, I do not know if this is truly closing apps.

I haven't been this excited for a new ROM build yet. ICS on Epic is far more than I ever thought I'd get from Sammy/Sprint.

I installed alpha2 and I'm still having issues with auto-rotation working properly. I have the two system settings checked properly. I also have the notification toggle set and it still won't auto rotate properly. Anyone have any ideas on this one?

After installing Alpha2 I get an annoying error msg popping up every few seconds "Unfortunately (some chinese or korean word) stopped working". Maybe the chinese or korean word was trying to tell me that the keypad stopped working because that was the only thing that wasn't working.

Since it was too annoying I went back to Alpha1, awaiting input from others.

I had the same problem. Go to Settings => Language & input and make sure that "Language" is set to English and also the "Default" under Keyboard & Input Methods is set to English. This should fix the problem.

Both were set to Japanese when I first flashed Alpha 2.

Thanx, that's what I'll do Ed.

Was the toggle 4G(WiMax) in the notification bar fixed or not?? I freakin LOVE this rom!! Glad to hear that they fixed the distorted phone calls too.

Yes, GrooveRite, it was fixed. And, you don't need to re-flash the gsapps anymore anytime you update the CM.

Does anyone have 2 gallery apps in their app drawer?

Re: [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.0.0-Alpha 1

I had two galleries, deleted the Gallery2.apk with Root Explorer from the /system/app. Left the GoogleGallery.apk

now I only have the one working Gallery.

Re: [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.0.0-Alpha 1

Sounds like a mistake in the GAPPs package... They forgot to remove the Galley2.apk when it installed the GoogleGallery.apk

Re: [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.0.0-Alpha 1

ok.......alpha-2, after 24 hours:

4G from toggle: Chk
Audio on calls: Chk
Low memory fix (battery life is better): Chk
Manual brightness from setting slider: Chk
1 min 50 sec Video w/out tearing/100% AV Sync: Chk
Gapps update (no need to re-flash): Since I have yet to re-flash..........will have to wait + see

Otherwise, have had a very steady ride on alpha-2 so far........details, to follow in coming days.

Google Gallery is actually the older one. You deleted the one from the newer gapps.

There is evidence, or known testimony rather, that an alpha-2 flash from total wipe x 3 (cache, dalvik, factory data) installs only one gallery, as some of the apps from prior data remain on system without total wipe.........will have to wait till done testing to re-flash, but that day will come .....as things stand, am also attempting to define current values from a 'cache / dalvik' ONLY wipe prior to alpha-2 flash...........will cross that bridge soon as I acquire the time to manually install all of my apps.

Completely understandable, if you do a dirty flash it will leave some of the old behind..

 

[sonarchist]

A quick near-clean is to do a total wipe x 3, install alpha-2 + gapps, then advanced data-only restore from recovery (using good nandroid created prior to wipe)............results in one gallery only (new one) using this method............CM Epic Team is advising 100% wipe then clean install, including apps, for optimum CM9 performance (going forward)...........with new gapps this would be a worthwhile investment of time.............. (did clean install for alpha-0, + performance has been really awesome on this ROM since).

I had 2 galleries too. Once I deleted the icon from homepage and dragged the one from apps it cleared the one. No need to uninstall anything.

I just have an inquiry/question. I created an account with CM but the confirmation email never arrives. And there's no-way you can contact anyone. Does anyone know what other routes I can take to finalize the account creation?
