    Help me understand Kernels

    yeah, the nexus modem thing, I can't help. I couldn't figure out the order to do it either. As for the kernel, you can just download that on that I linked to and flash it and see what you think. If you don't like it, you can just reflash your Cyanogen mod and it'll over write it. I flashed...

    Help me understand Kernels

    You shouldn't trust anyone, really. Even if I told you why I trusted them, why would you trust me? The only thing I go by is the apparent reputation of the person in the development community/XDA forum (that and a lack of cyrillic text and umlauts in their username) . This is the kernel that...

    Help me understand Kernels

    One other thing. I do have really bad signal here at work. It is causing some serious problems with Google Now and other cool stuff jelly bean does. I did add a mobile data toggle to the drawer and killing it does wonders.

    Epic 4g picture upload question.

    I generally get sick of screwing around with this and just upload them directly from the card with a card reader I have. I have the latest drivers and I still couldn't get it to work when i rooted my phone the first time. I can't remember ever getting it to work. Another option is to use ES...

    Help me understand Kernels

    I ended up taking a CM10.1 nightly and that replaced the kernel again. You can just flash the kernel like you flash a rom. You flash the kernel after your rom since the rom replaces the kernel. The modem was the part I couldn't figure out. Here is a list of the Kernels from a guy I thought I...

    Help me understand Kernels

    I think I resolved it. Well, I compromised. I just couldn't get that nexus modem to work. I am still on fc09. But I did flash a kernel that worked with cm10.1 that supports oveclocking. Here is a link to the kernels. The nitstfxc is the kernel. 4.2 is jelly bean. WM is the epic modem /...

    Help me understand Kernels

    I am running CM 10.1. I had previously run a GB ROM that had resident overclocking. I have no idea what Kernel it was. Since my CM 10.1 is a battery destroyer right now, and I never have a charger or extra battery more than 10 feet from me, I thought I'd overclock to see if it made a...

    CM 10.1 M2 Announced--anyone try it?

    It's no worse than cm10 or cm9. I kind of like google now's functionality, so I am dealing with some crap battery life issues. I thought it was really laggy, but I disabled all the animations and transitions and it is snappy. I am trying to find a good kernel for it. i have no idea where the...

    [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.1.0 -Stable

    You're right about cm9. In the past, when I said something like "Play hendrix" it would go to youtube or pandora or something. But I didn't have google play music until very recently. I don't think that the stock music player that came with my phone allowed you to do that, but I could be...

    [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.1.0 -Stable

    Punt! I went back to CM9. I had a few issues with 10.1. I had taken the latest 10.1 build hoping it would straighten things out, but it seemed to make it worse. Battery was pretty bad mostly because I had location services turned on for google now. It turns out that I just didn't use...

    Text Messages Not Sending?

    I get this occasionally. I usually go back and clear off some old text messages and it starts working again. I am always afraid to delete the messages with attachments for some reason - data hoarder. But, i recently just cleared all the messages and the world didn't end or anything. Maybe...

    [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.1.0 -Stable

    I did CM10.1 this weekend. Not a huge difference from cm9 that I was running. I am running the mixer theme, so it essentially looks the same as it did before. I decided to take most of the stock options when it booted the first time to see how bad it was going to end up being battery-wise. I...

    google now on cm9.0.0 stable

    BTW, I removed it. It wasn't all that cool asking it questions all the time. the anticipatory cards just never seemed to catch up with me. AND, the worst thing was that my phone was always awake. The battery graphs would show a solid line for "awake" even when the screen was off. Last...

    google now on cm9.0.0 stable

    I have been playing around with Google Now, too. Frustrating as hell :lol: When i first installed it, I had recently googled the school where my son's basketball practice was and it constantly put a notification up of how long it would take to get there. Like every 2 minutes for a couple...

    [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.1.0 -Stable

    Re: [ROM][EPIC 4G][CM9] CM9: CyanogenMod v 9.0.0- RC2 Have any of you guys removed the boot animation? If you've ever had to reboot while driving at night, you might understand why I want to get rid of it. It's just too bright. Aesthetically, it's not so great either. It would be extra cool...
