So i've been having an issue where SMS is very unreliable. Only about half of the SMS i try to send actually send. It looks like it sends on my end, but the message is never delivered. Only confirmed on cm7 and cm9, but those are the only 2 roms ive tested it on. I have read that an airrave could be to blame, and i do have one, but the problem is occurring everywhere, not just at home. Is it possible that the phone is to blame? I have had my epic for a year and a half and only started noticing this issue in the past month or so. Any ideas would be super helpful.
I am told my sms's never get received by friends too, though it only seems to affect some of my friends. Either they're lying, or I'm having sms issues too. Tough call.

Funny you mention that. I went back to EL30 stock as well. If Marcusant is right, then all Epic users have the issue, and only fixable via Modem Updates. I still have the issue and I'm using EL30.

This belongs in the general section
My first impressions:
Better battery life
GPS is even a slightly bit better
3G seems to stay locked on a bit more, though not as well as it should be. BUT, I have seen it get stuck in 1X mode, which DJ05 didn't seem to.
Anyone else have specific questions ????
z4root doesn't work with it.

You might have a hardware issue going on there with your GPS. Faulty antenna maybe?

Might want to get it checked out. Sounds like it.
I have been using DL09 this morning and have not been impressed. Signal seems sketchy compared to DJ05 with the 3g fix. I used the 3g fix with DL09 and still nothing to write home about. Later I will switch back to DJ05 until aosp is straightened out or froyo hits. DJ05 and superclean with otb voodoo is a nice ride.

Sorry, but what 3g fix are you referring to? I want a 3g fix lol
Is there a way to root DL09?
I have DJ05 and I dont have any signal problems at all.
In fact I just went out to our property that I hunt on (it's in the boonies) and got better signal strength that I did with my BB Storm.
So I dont see where Dl09 would be an improvement?
Also, GPS usually locks in 2-6 secs inside!

Have you tried it on another ROM? I had issues with bluetooth on CM6.1.2 (since i was using snap7.6 w/turbo) but I also had it recently with another ROM that I can't remember. It was a different issue but either way, it didn't work.
Works with AvaZ3 and Mik4.5 though.

Please upgrade your modem to ef10 because it hard crash your modem and you will not be able to revive it till you odin a new modem
The instablity in the change-off code when it switch to call only and 3g, mostly when you switch to wifi on or off.
For user using the ef02 modem.
When it happens modem hard crashes telling phone to shutdown and it create a log telling what happened & it null the request for boot the radio, only way you can clear that data is to reset the nvram by simply odining
What happen when you flash a modem: it flashes the same modem then it set up & reset the nvram parameter.
Doesn't happen to me.

You have been using it for a day..
I personally had issues with the EF10 modem, and none with EF02. Haven't noticed the same issues you mentioned. EF10 killed my GPS (clearing AGPS didn't help, but I didn't try ##RTN/reprogram though.) and a few other modem issues (airave connection not allowing SMS, etc.)
However, if someone is having trouble initiating OTA update from EF02 to EF10, (maybe you are already rooted, or received the "internal error", etc.) then I (or any informed tech at Sprint) can force the FOTA, but only if you have EF02 now.
So, either PM me your wireless number, or call your favorite tech (random techs will likely be unprepared) to see if they can do it. I work tomorrow (Sunday) and will send FOTA requests when I get there. (Around 11AM MST)

That is exactly whats happening to me After a few wifi on and off.
I'm just scared to upgrade to ef10 and have issues like other people
Out of all day, I used 4g 5 times and switched on and off from wifi about 6 times from there it switched to call only no 3g a simple reboot fixed it other than that upload/download speeds for 4g,3g,wifi are normal

With the Vision kernel It took some people only a few weeks to brick their devices. Some it took months. And some are still running it fine. Just because it can happen doesn't mean it will. It's just a safety measure and good practice to be on the most stable thing.

I do appreciate Noobnl's warning, but I think I'll take my chances (I've had one 3G drop, toggled airplane to get it back and it's worked since.)

That's interesting, I encountered the 3g no data bug on ef10 and toggled airplane mode as you did to get working data; reminiscent of ee03 modem issue. So I reverted back to ef02 and 3g data has been rock solid for me. Not saying Noobnl is wrong as he did look at the ril and he did warn us that Sprintsung still hasn't ironed out the kinks on that end thus far.
noobnl, I've been testing both and I found that it's EF10 that seems to have problems switching states for me. Certain ones would get locked in and not deactivate. EF02 has them hopping back and forth with no issue. GPS is way more responsive on EF02 as well. Can you elaborate more on the problem with 02?
EF02 is the best modem...PERIOD. Unless something crazy starts up soon (which I doubt, but IS possible).
Thanks been running ef10 with no trouble 3g,wifi,and GPS all work great.
I just encountered a gps bug in ef02 and on ef10. No gps icon or signal, even after a reboot.

I've had nothing but success with the Ef02 modem. It has been the best one I have used since DK28. I haven't had a chance to update to EF10, cause I dontwant to flash all the way back to stock and flash EF10 when EF02 works better than the last 2 releases for me. Once a flashable modem for EF10 is released, then I think you will see more people using it.

You can get ef10 modem via OTA update, but you might get messages to downgrade to ef02.

Okay, I had to buy a refurb Epic and EL30 is snappy. For example, the applications populate instantly when I choose Manage Applications. GPS actually works too. It's very polished and refined. This will definitely hold me over until the SGS3 releases later this year.
Fyi- I paid $162 from Ebay. The phone looks absolutely brand new.
I thought so too. But then I started missing all of the goodies from CM7.

What ROM did you flash? I was just using the odexed EL30 and the reboots were bad. I haven't seen any el30 ROMs. Seems like everyone is still using EI22.

I'm on the stock + rooted + deodexed with the clean gingerbread with slight mods kernel. I'm driving, so I can't provide links to the individual posts where I got each thing.
My GPS on Froyo was good, On GB leak it was bad, on GB official its Bad as well. On CM7 its still bad, with several GPS Fixes it doesn't fix anything Argggg.
Wish i knew what the cause for this is, on the official release of GB for HTC devices GPS is flawless. But mine it stutters and laggs never consistent.

Anyone having problems with text messaging lately? I'm a pretty heavy texter and I had people tell me that some of their text messages didn't go through to me or some of mine didnt go through to them the past few days. Running Euphoria if that matters... I never had this problem on froyo but I am not sure if its coincidental and just a t-mobile problem atm...
I had the same problem yesterday while running Frankenstein-FishmanMod. I wasn't getting any texts and none were going out. A restart seemed to fix it.
That weird, I mean mine isn't completely not working but it seems to happen every so often and a restart doesn't help at all I flashed back to froyo this morning and it still happened... I guess im going to have to call tmobile
