I know this isn't directly related to the epic but thought I would share it. My friend at school has Motorola Droid, the original one, with Netflix and streaming works. I asked him how he got it cause he's not rooted and he said its on the market. Its not on mine though :-( what up with that?

I think I remember reading it has something to do with the optimization of the hummingbird processors. Something is fixed in Gingerbread which is why it can stream on EF02 but not on EC05. Simple solution if you want netflix is to flash one of the EF02 roms like i3. I prefer the speed and battery of Frozen 1.2 though. Can't wait till we get our official GB update. I am excited to see what ACS can do with that source code.
+1 to Imann. It has to do with our processors and 2.2. It works perfectly on 2.3 for our Epics though.
I'm on the ef02 leak anyway so it doesn't really matter to me, I just thought that it wouldn't work on froyo period. Thanks for the info guys.

Got my false hopes up. :-( This is the #1 thing I want official GB for.
Was the 4g front facing camera and keyboard worth not getting gingerbread? Once you guys get cyanogenmod doors open. Ive been apart of the fascinate testing for the past year. The epic 4g's time will come, have patience. You guys are lucky you got 4g and I don't

Guess that's a subtle taunt eh? Well, to very roughly paraphrase Winston Churchill:
Very soon we will wake up with Gingerbread on our phones, but you will never have 4g, a front facing camera or a keyboard on your fascinate.

Is being part of cm worth the not working backcam and other pitfalls?
The vibrant cm has almostthe same limitations as the epic cm. What's stopping us from being on the cm tree, again?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
I don't use the front camera and 4G has never really worked for me on this phone. Gingerbread is incredibly buggy still... I'm going back to EC05
I have been running Gingerbread on my Epic since the first leak and never looked back. Been enjoying Netflix and working native email app tremendously. EG22 is great. I can't wait for the next leak...should be awesome.

I think I finally understand. Sammy had to put a lot of custom code to get things to work, and the devs need all this custom code to rewrite them to putthem into AOSP compliance instead of just writing from the ground up
Is that why?

Yep. That my understanding too.
I think I have a CM addiction. It was on my hero, the my evo, and now that I can actually have some flavor of CM I have to use it. It surely is stable to be honest, much more stable than eg22 leak base roms. Who needs a camera and gps anyway! Not this guy! Do not judge me!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Yes, it is bad. Next question?
But seriously, If you can live without a camera, LEDs, GPS, WiMax, and Video Playback (according to their own thread), go for it.
I actually use all those things.
Lol it's never bad if you're used to legitimately using betas and going without features.

The main things I'm waiting for are GPS and WiMAX. I'll be waiting a while for the later.
I do a decent amount of traveling for my job, and rarely to the same place twice, so GPS is pretty handy.
WiMAX sure beats 3G for tethering. Airport wifi is quite annoying. Plus my favourite coffee shop has a funky router that the following devices of mine have NOT worked on:
Toshiba Satellite w/ Windows 7
Apple Macbook Pro with 10.6.8
Google CR-48
Epic 4G
T-Mob G1
I've complained to no avail. I can go without 4G for a while, but I don't think CM will be a full replacement for me until it has WiMAX support.
All of that said I'm thankful for the development we have had. When I install Cyanogen on my Epic I'm reminded of how fantastic CM6 was on my G1. The things that work work perfectly, the phone zips around, the battery holds up, the Epic port has had some very solid development and we should all remember to be thankful for what we have rather than hold unreal expectations.
Ditto. Its hard to leave 4G because I have had it since launch day of this phone. Its what 5x faster? Overclocking Cyanogen with Tegrak makes it fast as can be but when downloading anything or connecting to XDA app,etc you can really feel the difference in data speed

Also on that same note how about a video on the 3g/4g settings from the thread make your 3g faster and your 4g disconnect less, I know when I first got my epic and tried applying that hack I had a few problems, but then you could include things like how to get your MSL (getprop MSL.ril) and whatnot...

A video about OC and Untervolting using SetPCU or Voltage control would be good, I'm on SRF 1.2 using the Genocide 2.0 kernel and Voltage control but not really sure what kind of settings I should use or if SetPCU would be better for me, and possibly a vid about installing or choosing the right settings on the SuperCharger v6 or v8 whichever is out now.
A good video would probably be an introduction to the v6 supercharger script for our phone, and quite possibly throw in suggestions from JohnCorleone about which options would be best for what purpose, since I'm aware he tested this to some degree.

I thought since developers are working on ROMS I would post this here. The EI22 GPS still sucks. I only locked 3 out of 9.
I did flash this GPS fix http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1321049 and right away locked 9 of 9. Thought if it's possible that this can be built in to the Roms?
It is in acs ice already and I will update that sometime soon.
