Hello, I just have a suggestion for any of the phenomenal developers we have for the Epic 4g. I currently just flashed CM7 (stock>SRF>ACS ICS>CM7) and am definitely liking it A LOT lol! (now on nightly 11 to be precise). My sincere apologies if this has already been suggested, I hadn't seen this one yet and I do read the forums a lot. (Long time reader, first time poster!!)
So.... I know there is a lot of comments on the funky purple 90% battery charging notification light. Here's my two cents:
If the light is blue when it's fully charged (like on stock) and red when charging (also stock)... how perfect would it be to have the red charging notification light on CM7, then transition to purple at 90% charged, and then to blue at fully charged???
What do you guys think??!!?!
[EDIT] Wow I sound like a dork haha. "first time poster!!!" FTW haha!
I like that suggestion. But I don't have any issues with the charging light as-is, either. I'm gonna take a SWAG * and say that I doubt the devs will implement this, and I really doubt that one of 'em will jump in here and say "Golly, this sounds like a swell idea, jones75534! Consider it done!" But if I'm wrong (on either count, or even close), I think it'd be a neat little feature. I'll cross my fingers for ya!
* Sniper-talk for "Scientific Wild-Ass Guess." I was watching the History Channel earlier.
I guess a purple light every morning doesn't bother me, and why should it? Who gives a rats arse. How about the choppy video recording and uber slow web browsing? Those are bigger things for our sweet devs to tackle.

Completely agree (except get rid of the pink all together. Looks like a bug and unprofessional). I am aware, though, that cm7 works different when it comes to when the LED lights up, and what you and I want is more of want Samsung does on TouchWiz. And to be honest, I think that's better. It charges when red, full when blue. Simple.

Haha, good call my friend. You're probably right! In retrospect, probably should've directed the suggestion more towards custom MTD roms as opposed to official CM7.

I completely agree with you on the video recording. I actually have that issue too, its one of only 2 I issues I currently have with the rom. I just noticed that this had been discussed quite a bit and so I assumed it didn't warrant mentioning in this post.
My post was just an aesethetic suggestion on a ROM that is near flawless.

BTW, have you checked out Deca's thread on this yet?
I like these ideas. I say someone dev some mods for CM7. Not everybody likes CM7's defaults just like not everyone likes Samsung's defaults. I'm not saying push this into the CM7 tree but instead release some mods that are 3rd party unsupported. How about haptic feedback on our menu, home, back and search keys?

I suggest doing a factory reset after upgrading. ICS was abysmal for me until I did the reset. Now it runs very smoothly.

ICS, four words. 1) Sticky 2) Please 3) use 4) it
Lol...have you not used it on another devise¿.... I am not even going to update..To many little bugs...to many apps not supported.... The craziness for it is beyond me. ...
Having used ICS for all of an hour I have to say that my tablet might have finally taken over my laptop for most used device. ICS on the Transformer makes this device fly like it was slathered in butter and shot out of a cannon.

For me it runs like a beast (US build) . Its by far faster than I expected after trying out paulbortons build (which will probably see great improvements now that the official update is here). There's no input lag, touchscreen is very responsive, apps open fast (on the second run. You need to let them initialize on the first run) and screen transitions are snappy and without any lag.
I am going to try now to wipe and install all from stretch
I hope its will help
I LOVE ICS! The Chrome Beta browser is awesome, the design very crisp and overall very snappy. Only Google+ keeps crashing and since it's built into the system I just disabled it... I will see over time what works/doesn't work.
Before you complain...
RESET YOUR DEVICE.
This will fix 99.9% of any problem you can experience.
Has anyone got a problem where wifi sleep policy won't keep its setting? Or is it just a case of doing a reset again?

So guys I was asking myself "is it worth flashing?". Why you ask? Well because if I took a look in the development section and it doesn't look like any of the current roms out are stable and they all seem to have many know issues. So I would like to know what you have flashed and how you like the experience compares to stock rom?
Sent from my SGH-T989 using Tapatalk
I have flashed a bunch of roms on this tab. Most of them are stable now. ALL of them running ics are better than the honeycomb touchwiz that comes pre installed. The only caveat I say to you, is that the camera still isn't working on the roms I've been using as my dailies. (Aokp and Nightlies) If that's a deal killer for you, then stay away from the ics builds for now. But I can tell you as someone who has a 2 year + old Droid Incredible running ics AND this tab running ics, I can never go back. Its just THAT good. Especially on this tab where it Truly shows off the big improvements on the OS.

I'm running a stock mod but the difference is pretty huge. No more constant reboots or hangs. Much faster too. Not using any special kernels either. The ROM I'm using has working GPS and camera. Haven't touched any roms with broken cam/GPS.

Can I ask which ROM you're using? (I thought there wasn't an ICS ROM with working camera...?)
He never said nor implied that he was using an ICS rom...
Ah OK. (Just realised you're right)
I'm using overcome 2.3.1. It's not ics. It's pretty nice. Went from multiple daily reboots to 3 or 4days of uptime. I use it a lot for reading, browsing, netflix, remote mgmt of servers and it holds up well. I bought 3 Samsung docks and have it hooked up to my home theater for music via hdmi, on my nightstand (ditched the tv in the bedroom) and another in my office. I wouldn't have been able to keep it without a rom. Give it a shot. Take your time and read up, it's pretty simple. I'm kinda pissed they made such a great tablet and put such a horrible buggy os on it.
I saw all the comments here suggesting to throw a rom on it to improve performance but I didn't put much stock in it. It's not an exaggeration. You have to ditch the tw launcher too. I'm using Go's tablet edition. I guarantee you will not go back to stock. I chose overcome because it's really stable. No point trying to escape bugs and using a buggy rom.
Getting off my soapbox now. Good luck with whatever you decide.

Yes that was one of my major concerns of ics. I'm running dark sides evolution 2 beta 3 on my sgs2. But when I came here to read about the 10.1 ics versions I was kind of sad. Because like it was said the 10.1 is awesome but cannot be used on stock w/o mods. I really just want to get on a stable release that doesn't have this issue where you could only charge your tab with the wall charger. I need a different kernal.

With Task v14, I feel that the Galaxy tab is vastly improved from the stock bloatware.
I don't really care about ICS on the Galaxy. Task 14 is so good, I don't see ICS as improving much. I have ICS running on HP Touchpad and Kindle Fire, right now.
it's nice, but IMHO not really worth all of the hype over an optimized GB ROM. YMMV.
Task v 14 is really great, highly recommend it over any ics roms.

Yeah I'm not even using any special kernel and have no probs charging.
I'm actually happy with my stock rooted GS2. The only problems I've had are few and far between and solved with a reboot.
I looked at all the major roms on the dev page and Overcome seemed to be the safest stable rom.

I think your info may be outdated there are a few very and very fast roms out there. I use galaxy task rom and it is very smooth really like night and day over stock.
Perhaps what might come off as unstable are the continuing work by the devs to keep improving the rom

my $.02: My use-case for my tablet is almost entirely at home. I have the Wi-Fi only model, so I don't do a lot of "mobile" stuff with it. I have a Galaxy Nexus phone which I generally carry everywhere.
What I thought: As a techie, I want everything to be fully working just because, and as a result I cannot accept a tablet without a working camera!
Real Life: I use my tablet for IM, web browsing, reading comics, and playing games, generally around the house or while commuting. That's actually it. Number of times I did a video chat on my tablet: 1. Number of times I actually wanted to video chat on my tablet: maybe 2. Because I work with a Galaxy Nexus all the time, having the same OS & ROM on both devices is honestly nicer / easier / more lazy-friendly. Its honestly pretty slick to have Chrome syncing across my computers, my phone, and my tablet.
I recently tried to go back to Honeycomb since I once again thought "gee maybe I should use the camera on my tablet". Honeycomb just feels like ICS with training wheels on it I really don't like it as much. This probably as much a placebo effect as anything. Also, the camera isn't as good as my Galaxy Nexus or my actual camera, and I feel like a douche holding my tablet up to take a picture. Would being able to Skype on my tablet be cool? Yes. Would I use it that often? No.
I'm going back to AOKP damnit. I can deal with a non-working camera for a while.
And GPS??? My device doesn't have mobile data, so it really doesn't matter to me that much, even though I thought it would.
Bottom Line: You can back all your stuff up, and you're not out anything, so why not try it?

This definitely answered his question
"I just tried using the screen with my nail and it worked smoothly with accuracy. But i dont remember being able to do so in ICS... can someone confirm this?"
Here's a hint: it's also known as the placebo effect.
the screen's accuracy is still the same within both versions.
I clicked your link,
hit CTRL-F
and type placebo
no match.
FAIL.
obviously, you have no idea what placebo effect is.
also obviously, my hint is a summary of why the OP thinks that JB suddenly makes the screen more accurate to fingernails..
and finally, please stop failing as hard as you are failing right now.
EDIT: if you want to search for the keyword because reading is too hard, here it is: Surface capacitance
Obviously you cannot, it is a CAPACITIVE touchscreen !:cyclops:

All the OP wanted to know if this can be done also on ICS and you gave him a wikipedia article. That made sense.
the answer to that was in the article. it's a capacitive screen. It does not matter which version of android you're running. it will still recognize the touch. My HTC Vision is running GB and guess what, it's still picking up all taps from my fingers, nails or no nails.
You're smoking some serious crack if you think that an OS update will somehow turn the screen into a hybrid resistive/capacitive screen.

Like i said, a simple yes or a no was all he need. Is it the same case as ICS? Stop acting like a smart a**.
I'll never ask you a road direction, you might give me a wikipedia article. Lol
I hope to never see you ask me for directions. You would drive yourself off a cliff when I tell you to stick to the highways.
That link is there to show that the ability to register touches are not limited by the OS nor will it ever somehow be physically changed by a software update.
Of course I know what is placebo effect. But you can't even say so in your first reply.
obviously you just want to act smart.
Why don't give him an ISBN number of a book instead of wikipedia link.

Having flashed and played around with Ubuntu on my N4 I have found that it looks good but, as you would expect from the sort of build, that it is barely usable.
The browser app only produces a white screen and most things are generally broken, to be honest, I'm not in the least bit surprised seeing as it's a dev build but it would be nice if things worked a bit better.
I also noticed there was no way of accessing settings of any sort, aside from network settings. This may well be an oversight on my part but I did dig quite a bit.
I have not had a chance to play with the SDK as I'm on windows and can't find anyway to install/use it (and I really can't be bothered) so I have no comments on that.
From what I could tell, performance was pretty good, but that may just be the N4, and I noticed no huge drain in battery when I restored my CM10 backup, aside from what you'd expect from a backup, flash and restore.
I couldn't figure out how to use the docking mode (nor do I know if it's even in this version) so I also cannot comment on that.
However, I think I will be sticking to CM10 for now and I'll wait for a more usable version to come out before I begin to use Ubuntu more often.
How has everyone else found it?

Edited because people are too stupid and/or lazy to pay attention to when something is posted. Good job there.

Having flashed and played around with Ubuntu on my N4 I have found that it looks good but, as you would expect from the sort of build, that it is barely usable.

Looks good
I installed Ubuntu on my galaxy nexus and while it does look good, it is very laggy and slow to respond to touch commands. Browser works fine but very slowly. I too did not find any "settings" menu or options. The camera works just fine and so does the gallery. Power button does the usual lock/unlock action, but the volume buttons seem to do nothing. Haven't heard any sounds on the device either. Will keep exploring the OS but so far, it really does feel like a preview, as Canonical has described.
Calls and sms work, and so does wifi. When i plugged in the headset during a call however, it did not work at all.
It is available for the Verizon s3 on RootzWiki just Google it.

One other thing I noticed when I was on my commute to school was that I couldn't turn off wifi, which did not help my battery, I do still really like the ui and I'm sure that it will be really good when it is finished

wtf?
does anyone read anything any more or do they just jump in and post useless babble?
ITS NOT OUT FOR YOUR DEVICE YET, AS STATED HUNDREDS OF TIMES ACROSS HUNDREDS OF FORUMS AND WEBSITES ACROSS THE WORLD.
IT IS ONLY AVAILABLE FOR NEXUS DEVICES AT THIS TIME.
is it really that hard to search for this info using Google before you waste space in a thread?

Be camp man, just a noodle question. Tell him the trust then let him find the way out.

Yeah the browser work fine when I tried it, just really slowly.

Tried it on my nexus 7, the device was lagging almost constantly. I do like the UI itself though, it looks quite refined and easy on the eyes, much like desktop Ubuntu.

You should feel stupid as **** because it is out, I definitely had it on my GS3 earlier today. Calm down you asswipe and give people a break before making yourself look bad.

The browser worked for me, and I'm on a galaxy nexus.
You can access volume controls and brightness controls the same way you can network (note brightness is under battery indicator). There is no way to set date and time except from command line via adb or ssh. Out of curiosity what other settings would others like to access?
For the SDK, although I can't use QtCreator I am able to edit and compile code from a Windows 7 computer on the phone itself, using ssh with vim qmake, and even run some GUI programs using an X server, like gedit and meld.
Docking mode is unavailable, as far as I can tell. It probably will not be available until Mir is released, since I think the rootless X is being worked on for Mir.
I think Ubuntu Touch has a lot of potential.
Is this supported by all phone?
