Mortify ROM Review - Epic 4G General

l am about 5 hours into it now. Very smooth and slick. Everything (camera, flash, 4g,hotspot,tether...) seems to work so far with one exception. I havent been able to receive MMS picture messages thus far. Though the phone I tested it with is a Nexus S 4g running CM7.2 RC2, which hasnt been 100% reliable sending MMS. I have also had this problem on CM7.1, 7.2 RC1,2, and 3, and CM9. it works stock and on clean GB. so obviously this is par for the course in my experience.
Sprint network optimizer is a nice touch.
Overall the ROM feels very stock (mix GB/ICS stock). Im glad to find my sprint dialer codes are back with this one. (just had to dial ##8778# for diag instead of *#*#8778#*#*) I miss the settings utop the notification panel, al la ICS.
overall Im pretty pleased. Ill stick with this one for a while and report back and issues I find.
Has anyone got any ideas concerning picture MMS?

This belongs in general there is nothing in this thread that states a question or anything that can solve a question just saying

It's a good ROM but I've had a few problems with it.
One issue, for me at least, seems to be memory leaks. There have been many times where the phone is kinda laggy or apps just force close. I've reflashed & everything but I've had better luck with cleanGB. Like they say; every phone is different.
It is a good ROM, though. It looks nice.

There also isn't a zoom on the camera, which I just found out last night while using my g/f's. Some things just don't make sense.
I also got the nexus s and am loving it. For those complaining about notification led try noled app on the market. Works pretty well. Im still not sure if ill get the 3d just because of the size, I'm really enjouying the size of the nexus.

No need to phrase is like that.
Its a legitimate gripe with the device.
And it serves no logical purpose.
It honestly wouldn't surprise me if it was a mistake in the build order and then they just kept it that way...

No. You must flash a CDMA version if you want data/phone to work. Hopefully CM7 & MIUI show us some love in the not too distant future. Hell, I've been studying source all day trying to figure out how to port Amon-RA recovery over to NS4G.

Hey mattykins,
How come when you think something is a legitimate gripe... then its ok to ***** about it... but if someone gripes about something that you don't agree with then they are idiots.?
Watched a lot of your posts... you seemed to do as much anti-*****ing as anyone's regular *****ing.

cm9 progress

If people want to keep up with the cm9 progress, look at the link below. Theyve done a great job of getting most things working, but obviously its still buggy and so buggy most people wouldn't want to use it. Until e 911 is fixed, they wont release.
http://epiccm.blogspot.com/p/cm9-status.html
Edit: apparently that's not completely uptodate. According to acer, Memory storage is fixed, as well as camera, calendar sync, on-screen keyboard, and MMS.
Awesome! Thanks for this! I was just about to Google it!
Oh....and first!
Dammit, Kenny beat me to 1st.

Got a few things mixed up. The on-screen keyboard glitch isn't completely fixed but it is better, and I meant SMS instead of MMS, sorry.
Camera is also a work-in-progress, but that should be fixed within a day or two. Just follow the IRC to be up-to-date and follow: http://review.cyanogenmod.com/#q,epicmtd,n,z
their new ics bootanimation.zip in that link is definitely much nicer than the old one i found floating around the forum here...
I say we won't see an actual release until one or two weeks at the earliest. This isn't an official ETA, it's just a logical guess based on the progress so far.
i assume that since we have hardware "buttons" we won't have the on screen controls that the nexus has right?

The current CM9 builds do not have don't have onscreen buttons and there is no option to enable them in CM9 at this time but CM9 is very very earlier and most customizations aren't available yet from CM7 much less more customization,

Porting from CDMA to GSM is always a bit...uh PITA. But if you find a friendly dev or themer there who can put all the same mods into the ROM and then just translate the Aroma script and copy over the pngs you would basically have a T-Mobile TPR.

It depends. Usually for the same device, it works fine. Nexus s to nexus s 4g took about 3 files changed. You'll need to change build prop, apns, and any ril binaries. Other than that, everything should be compatible in the framework. All the sprint stuff should be there. Good luck!
