In the past I was a rom of the week type of person and then something happend in May. I installed Bi-Winning and added the Bali v1.8.8UV kernel and life was good. My phone didn't crash (often) and battery live was 24+ hours. Everything just worked.
Fast forward to this past sunday. I see everyone talking about how good ICS Passion v5 was so I decided it's time to start experimenting again. The first install seemed to go ok except the radio didn't work. A phone really needs a radio to make calls and access the interweb. Back it down to CM7 and no boot.... Flash back to stock, root, find a version of CWM that will work, install CM7, update to ICE Passion and all seems ok.... for about 3 hours. Then it crashes and won't reboot. Looking adb logcat tells me that I have a disk I/O error. Get into CWM and back it down to CM7 and run that for an hur or so to see my battery deplete by 35%. By 7:00 the battery was dead.
Last night I rolled back to Bi-winning/Bali and it was smooth as silk. Woke up this morning to my phone alarm and see that I have 93% battery... Life is good again.
This isn't a stab at the Passion/CM7 devs. I really appreciate everything they do and hopefully I will one day be using one of their roms. For now the Bi-Winning/Bali combo has me totally spoiled and ruined my enjoyment of rom du jour.
Guess to each their own, enjoyed miui for the past month or so and moved onto passion ics v4 (v5 tethering isn't working for me). It's been great, granted it's not perfect but it's only going to get better.
I'm with dfaceb. Been through many roms, most recently omfgb, and I'm loving passion v5 with 17 to 18 hours between charges. The transition to v5 (install) was seamless in my case.

I know this is a noob question, but I'm looking to downgrade from CM7 to froyo again, how did you go about doing that?

Unfortunately it requires you to odin back to stock, root it, install clockwork and then install the froyo rom.

try them both, their both wonderful. i stuck with MIUI for over a month.
I tried both of them and I think they both have their advantages and disadvantages. Right now I went back to 2.2 because NOVA dont work on 2.3. If any of you can play NOVA on cm7 or miui please let me know. MIUI has the lockscreen and pop up messages. As Cm7 has optimization tweaks and Stock aosp feel. I really want to go back but still trying to decide if I should wait.

Hey Alan, I noticed on your CM7 review the voodoo control app has Voodoo Color options. Do you know if this only appears in gingerbread builds maybe?
I have tried to find color options in the Voodoo Control app in 2.2 roms, but all there is, is Voodoo Sound options.
Thanks!
i got bricked, hay what a sad day.
i like MIUI.. i've never tried CM7 and dont know if i will.
i had miui for almost a week until earlier this morning when was playing music using the music widget, it would skip songs or not even finish a whole song then on to the next song.. weird, i didnt like that, it's probably because i was browsing through pictures at the same time on miui gallery ( buggy,makes my phone FC, sluggish) that made the songs skip?. so i went back to 2.2
i like the rom. it's very nice! very customizable and easy on the eyes.. ill get back to it when it becomes stable even if gps is still broken...
Damn! How many apps do you have on your phone Alanrocks? That's nuts! I just counted mine, I have 16 downloaded. But I dont play games on my phone and Im OCD about having too much stuff and any bloat so I keep my apps to a minimum.

Ok I posted a few weeks back about my phone being a little laggy when I first started it up but it started becoming progressively worse even with closing all running apps in the settings>applications>running services thing cause I thought there might be a lot running but that didn't help.
So last night thinking a fresh start would help I reflashed the newest syndicate frozen rom and my phone is still being a little slower than I would want not to mention slower than everyone elses reviews. And on top of that my battery drain iis pretty bad (dropped like 20% in the last hour with moderate use).
So I was just wondering if there's any way to pinpoint what might be causing this (like certain apps running) or a way to try and correct it? Any help would be really appreciated.
Thanks

Not sure what it is but ill give my experience. A while ago I had the same issue. Turn out there was something wrong with the stock ec05 tar. I had a modified version and didn't know it. No matter what rom I flashed it didn't perform well. Also, I use my epic is my main form of internet use. Most roms and mods I dl str8 to my phone. Well, it also turns out that downloading roms str8 onto the sd card game me some errors. Probably because of some fault in the data. Redownload everything you need. When you odin back to ec05 format your sd card also. Should do the trick unless there's something wrong with your phone.

One thing that might help is if you have Titanium backup or Mybackup Root freeze DRM content and SNS services. Also are you running setcpu? If so try removing it to see if that helps. If it does then your setting are off and you need to tweak your settings. Do you have journaling enabled? Another thing what kernel are you using? I liked Vision kernel over Twilight some have also mentioned Genocide being good also. I am NOT saying Twilight is a bad kernel just it does give some people issues with certain setups.

Thanks for the response. I already had drm frozen, just froze sns (what does that do?), so we'll see how that helps. I also uninstalled setcpu to see if theres any improvement there.
Im running twilight kernel, maybe if the problems persist ill have to try out another one. With kernels all I do is flash? Will any info be lost or wil I have to wipe etc? Or just flash and your good to go?

Just flash the kernel no need for wipe. Just make sure you nan first.
Thanks everyone! I just rewiped and reflashed the SFR 1.1.1 again and it seems to be working fine so far.
I haven't installed all the apps I had before and don't plan on it because I have all I need on it now and it could have been an unnecessary app causing problems or just a bad wipe but either way so far so good.
Ill post back if theres any issues in the next few days. Thanks again.

Flash the genocide kernel 1.1.
"The greatest respect you can earn is self respect" Louie Simmons
Ok so I reflashed and it was working perfectly, buttery smooth no lag nothing. I was completely happy. I charged my phone and used it until about 10% turned it off and replaced the battery with a 100% charged one I have as a backup.
Once I turned it on it began lagging again, as well as draining the battery quicker than before and on top of that it did an old problem I had that I didn't mention before which when you turn off the screen it turns back on showing the lock screen then goes off after about 5 seconds.
I have no idea what it could be and why it magically came bac after a shut down/reboot :/
Also if I switch to the genocide kernel do I have t reinstall all my apps again or does it just flash and keep all info? Do I have to wipe data/cache?
Thanks again
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
You have to wipe cache and dalvik, then flash Genocide. It will retain all data.

EC07 is from TeamBlackHat, if you feel like getting it immediately and having a stock phone, then go for it and spend the $2 for the app to download it. Otherwise, wait another day or two and we'll have deodexed, pre-rooted, and debloated versions for you to flash.
Based on the upgrade to 2.2.2, I'm thinking that this is roughly equivalent to ED05 for the Fascinate.

Deodexed is a non optimized rom meaning it can be themed and modded. Odexed is the exact opposite.

I am not quite sure what you mean is "not optimized" There is no optimization differences, other than the fact the first boot is faster on odexed roms than deodexed roms xP

To be honest with you I only tried CM7 for about an hour. I just didnt like the look and layout, plus it seems like it comes with so much more things installed (bloat to me).

One weird issue I've been having lately- (might not be ROM related)- SMS messages are not coming through. Or I'll get replies to SMS' I've sent like 3 days later. Probably more Sprint than anything else....

I've been thinking about taking this for a drive; I used bamboozle EF02 and it was pretty nice, I went back to EC05 because of the reboots using gb leaks (tried EE03,EF02, EG22, EH06 and EH17) and well my battery life with this ec05 rom is nuts.
I really like marcusant's stuff. He is young but talented.
I'm really digging the whole blue theme. Still so far no random reboots. A few days before flashing this rom I would get about 50 reboots a day. Really frustrating now my phone seem to be running like a new right out the box phone

I also installed this and wow, it feels like I just got a new phone.
I also dig the blue and dark theme. This stockish ICS theme is really what I was looking for.
So far the phone is snappy and GPS works, and looks so bad ass.
On the side note, I can't go back to stock EC05. I went back to froyo to get stable GPS but the UI was laggy compared to gingerbread. The froyo for Epic is so not optimized I had to go back to leaked gingerbread.
