The only thing keeping me from flashing all these new roms is the ext4 requirement -_-
Why doesn't anyonebuild a rom with rfs? I can't wait for schizopunk to get EE updated to eb13. I think he's the only dev that still supports rfs. Luckily his roms are always stable
I wish I knew how to write/alter code

I'm still using RFS.
Running Daemon's dodex, Stock EB13 ROM. Installed Genocide kernel 0.3a to fix the camera issues. Custom boot and custom battery icon.
If you cared to know what I had anyway. Personally, I prefer the piecemeal method of putting my phone together instead of simply installing a new ROM. I wish we had a kitchen like joeykrim created for the Moment.

I like the piecemeal too, but there's only like 3 thins that I can flash. Everything else is cwm 3 :/
I'm running stock eb13 wih the odin flashable fix for the camera

why dont you want to use ext4?
Also running RFS. I'm running stock except for the camera fix kernel. Tried Genocide but didn't like it. Syndicaterom looks interesting but it's not clear whether it will run on RFS.
EXT 4 is sooo much faster. it adds 400+ in quadrant on top of any rom you are using. thats if you are a numbers guy. but you will feel how much faster ext 4 does everything. the frozen rom is AMAZING 2400+ quadrant. the phone is done booting before the boot ani is done thats how much faster this phone is with those mods.

Hey I have a question, sorry if its been stated as I'm from the vibrant forum
I'm going to be rooting my sisters epic tonight, and was wondering what rom would be the best (she complains about battery life) so any suggestions would be great!
Thanks everyone, and again sorry if its been Asked.
Sent from my SGH-T959
I know you didn't mean to, but yes, this has been posted a billion times =P
And here is my answer: There is no "best" ROM; it depends on the User's experience. In my opinion, I like SyndicateROM Frozen the most, but there are so many others too, like midNIGHT, Bonsai4All, UrbanFury, etc. There really is no "best" ROM.
Here's another forum with the same question to give you a little more insight:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1037394
Sorry if it's not really a direct answer, but then again there really is no answer.
Hope this helps!
Yeah this us to hard to answer. Its all personal opinion. Just flash them all and luck the one you like the best. They are all great so none of then will disapoint you at all
Sent From My Evo Killer!
Yeah, what they said
If I were you I would start with syndicate rom. You will get a stable rom with support if something goes wrong. Midnight is great but the Dev sold his phone and won't be on here as much to help. It is based off of Bonsai.
Bonsai is not on here anymore. They started there own site that requires you to sign up and asks for a donation every time you download. I don't mind them asking but Bonsai has gotten out of hand.
I use midnight but am going back to syndicate as soon as K0nane and the rest of ACS release the newest ROM.
I used to use Frankenstein which is based on syndicate but his ROM is too new this time for me to try it. I wait for others to work out the bugs. LOL.
Samsung Epic with Midnight for now
EC05 Stock Plus. Stock experience with tweaks and bug fixes that make stock what it should be.
Viper Synergy 5.0
Viper Synergy 5.0 on ext4 with EC05 modem. BTW, Viperteam and ACS roms are the best but I prefer Viper. Viper Synergy 5.0 would be my recommendation.

I was skeptical about trying anything other than an AOSP rom, since I like minimalistic rom, but seriously Syndicate ROM is a wonderful rom that has minimal customizations and is super fast.
tl;dr: +1 to Syndicate rom.

It's not broken, you have bad data/cache/dalvik-cache/need to Fix Permissions/need to Odin to stock EC05, wipe and reflash/need to wipe SD card and perform the previous.
As for fixing permissions, how would I do that?
As for using Odin, I tried that a long time ago and my Epic would not connect to any computers, is there another way to get stock EC05?
I believe the ROM I was using before, Truly Epic ROM, was based off DK28.

I'm really not sure... I originally flashed the ROM coming from Truly Epic ROM v1.5, going to SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1.0, had some troubles, so factory reset, reinstalled Syndicate, had the phone app work off and on for a day, and now it's completely stopped working.
Sorry I'm not very good at this....
Odin to stock EC05, format your SD card, redownload the ROM, wipe 3x, flash.
I've had my Epic for about a few days now and I'm starting to feel like I made the wrong choice. I chose mostly on the hardware, than the software. The battery drains like the phone has a hole in it, the TW UI is just bad and I can't use the regular launcher. I'm sure this phone would be better with pure android. So what should I do? ROMs, Kernals, etc. Thanks in advance!

There's definitely a nice selection of Kernels and ROM's available, take a look at the development section, read through some of the features of the different ones available, and see if you find one you'd like to try.
In the end, whether you keep the phone or return it for a Nexus, is all up to you... none of us can really answer this for you, because we all have different wants and needs in our phones.
And fwiw, software side of this phone can be easily modified/customized, so if you're happy with the hardware, then perhaps you should look into the software customization.

A good tip to remember...if you do go the custom ROM route, some have no journaling. If you choose one of those, make sure you power down phone completely and don't let battery die or you will get force closes out the arse. If this my be an issue for you, get a ROM with journal on or flash the journal on mod after flashing the ROM.

Go with SyndicateROM Frozen. The 1.1 version needs updating ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1091680 ) on the ClockworkMod. The 1.2 version ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1131544 ) requires the latest ClockworkMod ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1115999 ). You need to flash modem to EC05 with Odin.
What I did was flashing modem to EC05, put the first CWM on the phone, then installed SynROM Frozen 1.1. After that, I updated the CWM, then updated to 1.2. I think the 1.2 is not full package (?) and upgrade from the 1.1 (?). Rodderik will update the 1.2 version with latest CWM. You can either wait for that update or continue with the steps that I did toward the 1.2 version.
Edit - SynROM Frozen 1.1 comes with ClockworkMod included. When you get it installed, just update the ClockworkMod (what I did was using the flash method with Odin) then upgrade to 1.2 version.

You had it partially right. Hardware is paramount simply because you can replace the software with better software but you can't replace what drives it. Root your phone with the new purple CWM and then give the Syndicate rom a try. What kernel you choose for it depends on your phone since they each take to certain kernels differently. I am personally using the second to last version of the Genocide kernel and voltage control with great results.
Think of the rom as a car's body that you can choose to option and the kernel as its engine.
I prefer Go Launcher over Launcher Pro and Handcent over all the others available.
If you want incredible battery life download an app called DataSwitch by TomatoX.
Make sure to enable journaling too.

I thought the same thing when I first started using tw... If your taking about the launcher I won't argue. But the rest of tw is pretty good. Built in task manager that clears ram, the dialer is dope. Contacts list is very functional, U can swype right on a name to call our left to txt. Also easy to navigate if u have alot of contacts. Hold your finger on the right in portrait mode to jump through letters, than if, lets say you know alot of T's when u get to T, slide your finger to the left and you can sort by the second letter (feel free to say thanks). If your in to facebook the buddies now and whatever other things are built in to the tw launcher (though if u change launchers you lose those widgets) activities in contacts links your fb friends, the... Does... And u can... With... And so on and so on and so on... theres alot to learn that u wrong in a few days... I've had mine since release day and I just found out... Yesterday... long story short, u only get one chance to trade ur phone in. Use the whole 30 days before u decide
P.s. u can change your screen brightness by long pressing the notification bar and sliding left to right. But u gotta have auto brightness turned off (thanks ↓)

I'm still on bml because its more reliable and every thing works the way it's supposed to. I tried the cm7 rom and I lasted about 2 days and quickly realized that it was very limited in flexibility and function.
Granted, it was very smooth. I know it's the future but its still very beta. Just read all the mtd threads, and you'll see how some basic things are buggy or not working.
I'm a little disappointed that some of the devs are abandoning all ei22 bml support. Especially since official gingerbread isn't even fully mature yet.
I am happy that at least TW will be supported in MTD, that's a major plus for me.
What are your thoughts?

I totally agree with you on this. I am trying to keep up on the MTD TW threads to see where the future is going but will remain probably on Legendary 2.1 with Shadowkernel for the immediate future because my phone is so freaking awesome right now!
As soon as Bbelos puts up 1.04 you guys should grab it! It will be phenomenal! All the speed you are used to and great voodoo color defaults (most will not need voodoo control app).
Well I happen to be the one that always says you'll come back. I have since moved to cm7 because earthbound put out the cm7 kernel I missed the first time I moved. I do have a few bugs I'm dealing with atm but nothing to hard to workaround. To be honest I don't see much improvment from mtd to bml or than the space and file system. As of now its just not too different however once the devs start to tear it apart and see how stuff works is when things will start to pick up. However they must be getting somewhere since there has been multiple updates on cm7 since to mtd move compared to bml.

Mtd is awesome!!!!!!!
Im running tortel1210's TWMTD rom and its amazing with Samurai3.3.1MTD and Ii really can see somewhat of a difference. On BML my phone was not able to run certain programs like chainfire correctly. Games like Trainz,SHADOWGUN, and GTA 3 would not play. After switching to MTD these games run smooth as ever and I have seen change in the behavior of many apps I have downloaded. MTD in my opinion will save the Epic from discontinuation of development on it. Mabye ports like working sense can finally be achieved from this new propietary system
Imho mtd is waay more reliable. I haven't got any of the dreaded gingerbread corruption.

I haven't had any problems with Gingerbread on BML. I always make sure journaling is enabled.

Bml/rfs is fine. Bml/ext4 sucks (even if journaling is enabled). Mtd/yaffs2 FTW!!

Chainfire works fine for me on bml/rfs. I've been playing Shadowgun and Deadspace all afternoon.

Wow! Don't sugar coat it Xopher...how do you really feel? LOL. A lot of people said that about EXT4 vs. RFS but there are still those that prefer RFS. I am not ready for the MTD jump yet but may check it out in the months to come.

I love MTD. Between CM7, marcusant V2 and the Stock MTD ROM, I see no reason to switch back to BML.

You should just take the jump once Earthbound comes out with his updated cm kernel so far cm7 has been everything I wanted it to be. Much faster game wise than two I don't quite understand it but its amazingly fast. Try it at least. I have yet to regret it.

I am hoping that we will see CM9 and LTE working together in the summer on the new phones.
Merry Christmas B!

That's what I'm waiting for too. No 4g is the deal breaker for me to.
My 4g service is awesome in my area, no rom can be so good that I would sacrifice my 4g for it.

Heh I wish, I did see something about a quad core HTC phone that I'm *hoping* is on Sprint.

I've been running MarcusantRom on mtd since he released it, and it is great! I have had no problems on v2. I like the room that my internal memory now had. I always had "low memory" messages on bml roms.
