[ROM] TrulyEpic Rebirth v1.5 AC - no planned EB13 update :'(

[Catman]

Yes place on SD card and then flash the stock email app .zip file using CWM

Thanks!

Sorry if this is redundant question......do I place the zip file on the SD card and just flash the app itself? I didn't recall the menu options. Thanks

Yup, place the zip file on the SD card, and just flash the app itself. In Clockworkmod, it would be the same option as flashing the ROM, except flashing an add-on does not wipe your phone. As others have said, perform a backup with clockworkmod before flashing add-ons. I'm glad I did.

Getting link not valid for theme 1.0 or 1.0lite, maybe cause I am trying on my phone?

I flashed the TrulyEpic Rebirth 1.2 ROM a couple of days ago and it is running great. My only issue is battery life. My Epic has been unplugged for about 4 hours today and used very little to check emails and it is down to 62% now! I have done the usual like toggle airplane mode and killed the DRM service. Any other suggestions.

Ragnarokx must be doing some file switching.

Heres a temporary link to Mini Theme v1.0 to get you moving.

Try rebooting your phone a couple of times. This helped me a little.

As far as I know, flashing is a one-way road. No uninstalling, no removing.

What I did was made a backup with clockworkmod before flashing a theme. That way if I didn't like it, I just restore my backup.

Thanks Paul. What would I do without all your help... maybe actually get some work done lol.

Something I did not know, when I went to download the file I got an error of:
Cannot Download. The content is not supported on this phone.

There's an app for that: Download All Files (Hwkrbbt software)

Yes the stock browser doesn't except .zip files to my knowledge. I knew there was a fix I just never looked for it.

Smart idea on the cwm backup. You have been doing your homework I see.

If your trying to download the Mini Theme v1.0 , something is broken with the link. See a few posts up for the temp link I put up.

Yes flashing is a one way street to a certain point. We try to offer flashable zips to revert to original whenever possible.

Any ideas what is in store for 1.3 Rag?

Thanks that did the trick..

 

[Mobius360]

Just an update to go with Pauls hard work on the Nascar & Football apps. Installed theme 1.0, both apps loaded & updated. Reinstalled theme 1.5 both apps still working just as Paul said.

Thanks again for all your efforts.

The problem with the modded battery meter is with stock meter or MT v1.0 there is roughly 15 graphics that are used to make it work. Very simple, and that is why what it shows you isn't very acurate because it is done in 10% increments. Any of the 1% increment battery mods have as you could imagine a lot more graphics to make it display properly. The bat mod I used had 125 graphics to made it all work. I would bet any of the 1% bat mods you find will use roughly the same 125 graphics just modified to display different meter pics. I may not be completely accurate in everything I've said here but I'm definately in the ball park on the reasons behind the increase power draw needed to run ANY bat mod in 1% increments.

Bottom line its the price you pay for having a nicer/accurate battery meter verses the normal 10% battery meters.

Thank you very much for the insight. Given this information, can you comment on the efficiency of mini theme v1.0 compared to the one that comes on TER? Battery life is something thats very difficult for me to sacrifice.

Actually that was the pre-v1.0 change log. I'll post something for v1.3 as soon and it's ready.

I tried it and it worked but the stock email app will not run. It crashes and then I get random text messages. I'll try flashing again from the start and see what comes of it.

From the 1st post:

To fix force closes after restoring stock apps: Settings>Applications>Manage applications>All (at the top)>(app)>Clear data and Clear cache
