[Q] Best Rom for Froyo 2.2.1. & rooted Samsung Epic

I have a samsung epic rooted currently on Froyo 2.2.1 with clockwork mod
Im looking for a rom thats fast, has no issues & has the homescreen that look like the evo, even if a rom makes my Epic run like its a Evo is cool too? please let me know

Htc sense isn't available for Samsung Epic. But...you can install Beautiful Widgets app to look like the Htc Sense clock for your home screen.

+1 I couldn't stop laughing

my phone is rooted, & from what i read, when your fones rooted, it puts a program called super user on your phone which allows you access to apps regular phones cant & that those apps are free. & after reading the reviews on beautiful wigets ppl are saying that the programs weather is often wrong like it says sunny @ 2a.m. lol n that it sucks battery dry n slow fone down
have yu had problems out if it.

Guy, don't believe everything you read. I know this might come as a complete surprise but not everyone knows what they are doing with their phones and misinformation is spread constantly. Try it for yourself, if you don't like it, refund it in less than 24hrs.
Just because you rooted doesn't mean pay apps are free. Yes there are apps that need root to function properly that are free, as there are also ones that are not free.

I use beautiful widgets for my clock and weather and have seen no problems with it being correct. I also use LauncherPro, both of these together basically mimics EVO's Sense UI perfectly.

ok thanks for the information, are you familiar with superuser?

Superuser refers to the user's ability to access system functions. With android it essentially grants admin access allowing you to modify things usually 'off-limits' to standard users.

oh ok cool. what do you have in your superuser?

This can't be real
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk

what do yu have in your superuser? all i have is the wireless tether

C'mon people don't be so harsh.
Basically the idea is just to let you access functions that are generally blocked by sprint or samsung. How you want to use it is up to you.

No throttle and no clock for liberty 1.5

Here's a link for no throttle an no clock for 1.5, I know a lot of people are using the ones for 1.0 without issues but since some people are reporting problems I decided to wait till I found this....
http://androidforums.com/droid-x-al...ottle-no-clock-no-throttle-liberty-1-5-a.html
Hope it helps. Enjoy!
Edit: props go to bouchigo
entrance not for everybody, for madmen only

will this work if i install the gingerbread theme?

I believe so, if the clock does reappear just apply it again. But I don't think the themes effect the service.jar file.
Sent from my DROIDX using XDA App

i was mainly concerned with the no throttle mod
i guess ill try on gingerbread if it doesnt seem to work ill flash back to liberty mod and reflash the throttle zip

looks like the site is down for maintnance ill try it later i guess

What does "pwn" mean? I ask because whatever it is they will most likely be doing it to me since I use way more data then that. And sorry for the ignorance but not long ago I thought trolling was just looking for girls or hanging out under a bridge. I had no idea it meant provoking people in forums. Still don't understand why they don't call it instigating or being an instigator.

To pwn. Google it...it's funny to see some of the explanations but, long story short, it's short for owned as in going to defeat you, ass handed to you, etc. LoL...it came from gamers playing WoW as a typo for the word own, just stuck since.
You phrase " I thought trolling was just looking for girls or hanging out under a bridge. " Epically priceless !!

Completely not on the throttle topic. But Pwn was *way* before WoW. At least EQ days and probably before that in the early quake 1 days.

Probably not, its replaces the services.jar file for for the droidx running liberty 1.5. I'm. Not sure that the d2 has the throttle built in like the dx does. Even if it does the services.jar file is most likely different.

You seem like the person to ask with as much knowledge as you know about phones and all the work you've created; good grief. I am stuck with Sprint and cant leave until next year without paying ETF; long story short; get terrible service and have airave (only works half the time and have 3 replacements-sprint does not want to address to issue; and me being on a SERO account probably doesn't help either) but someone in a different thread mentioned about a sprint diagnostic tool that you can use to force your phone to Roam verizon towers and get the boot rather quickly from sprint; unfortunately he said it was only for samsung devices; http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1774503

Sprint will boot you and terminate the contract with no etf if you do it enough. Not that I would condone such a thing.
I didn't know if there was such a tool that could work for the evo shift that you knew of since you work with other devs and know A LOT about A LOT of stuff. I searched google a bit then headed over here of the forums, but couldnt find much in regards to it for my phone. thanks in advance

I came across this for the HTC EVO, not shift; but maaaybe http://themikmik.com/showthread.php?16026-On-The-Fly-PRL-Change-PRL-Changes-With-and-Without-a-PC

Why don't you just put your phone into roam only mode. Eventually Sprint won't want you any more...

I thought the PRL would need to be changed to something different; I will give Roam Control a go and keep in Roaming...thanks

No you don't need to change your prl. Also, Several Shift ROMs like newSENSE Supreme Sense and StockMod have roam only as an option built in so you don't have to buy roam control if you don't want too.

Request for Dual Shot APK... Mine does not work

Whenever I go into dual shot and try to take a pic... As soon as I click on the dual shot icon my camera (both front and rear facing cameras) freeze and I cannot see what I am taking a picture of. I have only got it to work 2 times so far. Hopefully it's just a bad Dual Shot APK that I have and not faulty hardware. Anyone have the dual shot APK that'd be greatly appreciated!! Every other camera mode works fine.

Well.... I'm expecting my current one to Brick beyond repair. You know how man EVO 4G LTEs I blew thru? A few lol! But the HTCs are much different. Honestly, Odin is amazing. With HTC you had a exe file to run, but it was perfect Eveeytime. I don't ever see myself going back. But Sammy has proven to me it's much easier to theme certain parts of the system.

I think this is kernel related, i just tested it on stock mdl no other mods and flashd kt kernel. It locks up as soon as the cam goes into dual mode. Weird, but very minor annoyance

Wow so weird... I was literally JUST about to test if it was KT Kernel doing this. I will notify him of this and maybe there is a workaround for it! I thought it was either a mod or the kernel... turns out it's the kernel. Not too big of a deal, but like you said, yes it is a minor annoyance lol.

Sprint is a sleeping monster in the network department, so I'm not sure why the smart people aren't here more.

Ill probably get bashed for this question. I think it is a viable question.
Where are all the developers for Sprint note 4. T mobile has 8 roms already. Is sprint the red headed step child that noone wants to mess with? Im just curious.

CDMA is trouble and less and less people are developing for this technology. Whereas T-Mobile being GSM it can use international ROMs, and with a few tweaks become a T-Mobile branded ROM.
So maybe it is time for new people to learn to develop and be the next developer everyone is talking about on Sprint.

Makes sense. Thanks. I was just curious. I went to look at t mobile variant and seen all the development. I hope i didnt sound ungrateful to the current developers on note 4. I was wondering why one variant would have so many and one would have so few.

Xposed has really put a damper on things... rendered most of my mods back in the day useless. Luckly though you cant mod the deep coded files of certain files so im happy about that

I can't wait to see a clean custom rom without any xposed, i just don't like exposed mods

Exposed will never beat a good custom rom. EVER. That is my oppinion. Anytime I have ever used exposed (on any phone) issues seem to creep up. A good custom rom is the way to go. So the devs are the best.
