EL30 with iap's sepukku kernel

Anyone else running just factory EL with this kernel? I'm happy with this setup until we see cm9. Battery life and smoothness are like butter. Highly recommend.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

Are you running MTD?? I tried that kernel for BML and it was very unstable. Constant freezing and reboots.

Just factory EL30 which is bml. Were you running sepukku MTD? Everything has been snappy and stable with this current setup, atleast for me.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

no im on BML, but i dont have the EL30 modem...im still on EI22

Thats what im on. Factory el30 with sepukku kernel. Smooooooth. And killer multitasking.
Just buggin out, me an my eye balls.

Leprechaun, El30 is more than a modem. Its a complete upgrade for GB with no carrier iq. I would get off ei22.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

yeah i know there is no ciq on it, but i dont have that anyway (legendary rom) so im gunu wait till someone makes a rom for it.

Actually, there's still traces of carrier iq on custom roms because it was integrated so deep. Now that carrier iq is gone, Ill be rocking this sweet setup until cm9 hits.

There are traces but there is nothing for it to latch onto... therefore it is completely disabled... so. Ciq free...

Those will probably be the apps you had moved to the sd card. The link to where they were probably got severed on one of your updates.

Kenny, sounds like I need to do a clean wipe to ec05 again? This sucks. It was a process building up from ec to ei and el. Could really use a new .tar about now

You probably just need to reinstall those apps that show as missing and then move them to sd card again. Not sure why you would be getting random reboots all of a sudden. A few others have reported that as well. I updated my modem and then went to CM7 nightly 24.

I did reinstall the apps, but anytime it reboots, it turns into the same mess. I'm going to let the official EL30 OTA hit my phone and see if helps. Starting to miss my cyanogen already

The Best EL30 Custom Rom

CM9, wasn't for me, so I'm currently using CM7-which I love. BUT, the nightlies still haven't fixed the volume whenever you make outgoing calls and I don't like the Camera/video recorder. Since those two things haven't been fixed (And its driving me crazy) I was wondering what you guys think is a very good EL30 Rom? I'm thinking about switching to one but I don't want to sacrifice battery life and how snappy CM7 is. Just interested in seeing what you guys recommend that I should try.

There is only like 3. Just try them all and see what is best for YOU. Each phone and user is different.

You know its not like this is the evo where there's like 200 different sense 3.0 or 2.1 or 1.0+3.0 or 2.1+3.0 we just have TouchWiz Cyanogenmod and Miui not a lot to choose from
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

Im still trying to figure out what else I can do to my epic...i got cm9 alpha 4 on it....but besides that idk where else to go..

Before I switched over to CM9, I was on Clean GB. Before that, it was SleeperROM, but I remember finding something that I didn't like too much. I'm not putting it down or anything. Its just that one of my apps wasn't working or the camera. I forgot exactly what it was, but they're both good. I can't say about the other one. I liked Clean GB a lot. Give it a try.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App

tried CM7, tried MIUI (had to add a launcher becuase it was driving me crazy without one...lol) and tried CleanGB...
all very nice and unique in their own ways...
in the end, went back to Legendary Rom v2.2, after converting it from BML to MTD format....
the creators have made the install of all the roms idiot proof, it's fun to just backup/wipe as many times as you want and try them all out

SleeperRom or CleanGB are both great Roms.

And Marcusant's v4 will be out soon too. It is in beta now.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

I'm using cleangb and really like it. But I noticed that even stock el30 will do just we fine. No more ciq so its a good rom really. Bonus is, everything works.

Thanks for all of the replies! I'm trying CleanGB and the battery life is....ok. I guess I got spoiled with CM7 battery. I'm just glad everything works....Will give Marcusant's new one a try once released. May even try SleeperRom. Anybody on Thunderhawk right now?

Found it. Not exactly what your asking but you could find your answers in it instead of waiting for them to build up over here. The only thing about it is its kinda outdated there's been several updates for both these ROMs since this thread has been made. Anyway, hope it helps.

This is sort of a rhetorical question, as everyone has different things they like and use with each rom.. just as there is not one universal "best phone" there is no "best rom" either.. that's the beauty of having an awesome community like this.. its very easy to try something (in this case aokp) for a few days and see if u like it.. if not.. nandroid back to cm9
I just think u are going to get a lot of opinions that don't really mean much in terms of if its the right rom for u
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA

You can flash AOKP and CM9 back and forth without wiping your data (YMMV, at least I've never had a problem switching back and forth a dozen times or so). So keep both on your SD card and whenever you want to try the other just wipe your cache and dalvik and flash the other one. You'll be up and running in less than 5 minutes with all of your data intact.
The big difference is some customization stuff, lockscreens and notification drawer stuff. I like AOKP partially because I like having the lockscreen before my (work mandated) PIN since I got to within 1 accidental button click of wiping my phone while it was in my pocket having random incorrect pins being entered in.
Now that both are on 4.0.4 I dont notice a battery difference between them.

Exactly this. Battery's about the same, and it's very easy to switch between them (although make sure you're using a 3rd party launcher. AOKP will get rid of Trebuchet. I prefer Apex.)
AOKP has much more customization and updates in my opinion, however CM9 has more potential and awesome features AOKP won't have. Right now AOKP is better though.

If no one has mentioned it already (and I didn't see it) the FB contact intigration works on AOKP. The only nice thing about CM9 over AOKP is the 4G toggle in the status bar. IMO.
Otherwise the rumors are true -AOKP is generally better.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium

CM9 is really just stock AOSP with a couple tweaks. AOKP has more tweaks and is much better on battery. I recommend AOKP to anyone wanting AOSP

You should look into the ICS 4.04 ROM by jmztaylor. You can search for his thread here on XDA. The ROM is lightning fast, very stable, and only has a few things that don't work (mainly camcorder and FFC).

I want to learn to port or make a ROM

So I want to try and learn how ROMs work. Or maybe that's a little bit too much to start with, maybe mods and hacks and stuff. Is there any tutorials on how to start anything that has to do with development that someone has actually used and learned from and worked with him that you can point me out to? Or at least can someone tell me where I should start to be able to learn all that I need to know?
I've done some theming and editing .xml files and decompliling and stuff so its not that I don't know anything, just don't know enough.

Yes young padawan. You have much to learn in the ways of the force.

No disrespect to the OP or anyone else, but if you have to ask how then you aren't ready.
Do some research: take apart zips, find out how things work. Learn about Android as a whole (helps to also learn how 'nix) works also, Android is of course based largely on it), and most importantly trial and error.
The force is strong in this one, I can feel it. But he must complete the trials in order to fully understand the true nature of the force.

Well maybe I should be searching and doing things on my own but that's what I did when I started to theme a little bit and it worked out well. But I started by seeing one of travis' tutorials and with the help of shane with a lot of things.
So basically I need some help that's all.
And I too see that CM7/9, AOKP and all those are the same. Especially the 2 versions of MIUI. So I would like to start my own thing kind of like sence and blur. Sence would be something I would be interested in doing since I loved my htc phones before this one, but since its already started I will try and work on something else.
Ill pm you xboxfanj and we'll see how I can start working on it. And thanks for your offer =).

AOKP/CNA/Gummy is kinda like Sbrissen mod for touchwiz gingerbread roms on steroids. Like xbox said, the AOSP thing has been done to death on ICS. All we're getting at this point is some pointless fragmentation between the roms.
UBER/Biggorn/Big Goron or whatever name your using these days , I wish you luck with that endeavor. I tried to do my own for a couple months and realized that I was updating it every other day thanks to what was getting merged in on the other roms. Too much of a PITA for me so I went back to theming.
