shadow 119 Report post Posted January 6, 2012 acs ics rom is very good, and gives u better battery back up, but u have back up basic apps like file manager etc and have to reinstall again, other wise if u are happy with file managers like astro u are good to go with acs ics , looks very very cool, varun u can install directly no need to revert to stock , u can just install using cmw, follow the instruction from qbking77 from youtube, Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dev997 62 Report post Posted January 7, 2012 Hi All, I have tried both Official CM7 RC0 and MIUI rooms which are MTD partition based. Apart from the fact that they look and feel awesome and have tons of customizable feature, i'd like to mention more important think ... 3g data (EVDO) doesn't seem to work on these roms. I have tried changing Mobile network option but I'm not able to use mobile data. 3g icon comes and goes every 30 secs or so. So if anyone is thinking of trying out these roms, i'd advise they try to find solution to this problem beforehand. Apart from that I'm extensively involved in testing OC/UV of various ROMS and KERNELS released on XDA and as per my experience RandomKings Thunderhawk 3.3 is best ext4 based rom while Toadlife's CleanGB rom is best RFS based rom.For kernel's i'd advise both samurai's and shadow kernels.

csmart 472 Report post Posted January 9, 2012 Those who are interested in MIUI ROM for Epic 4G, can now install it. as per review its like iOS and few people have problem with Camera, especially video recording. Video for how to install. I think you need to be on Stock GB. Small review: Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

doc_anurag 46 Report post Posted January 9, 2012 Recently switched to Clean GB v1.3 with the latest shadow kernel ( v 1.3+) OC to1.2GHZ. Phone is running butter smooth and the battery life is absolutly amazing. After a whole day of use with 3g ,surfing ,call etc still had 45% percent battery left. Never before have gone a full day on my epic without recharge. Will recommend the combination to any one who wants the stock experience with amazing battery life.

Is it safe to overclock? I think battery life will be much better if the phone runs 1Ghz. What does DSS settings in data programming window do? ##3282# > Edit > Others > DSS Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk Edited January 10, 2012 by abhi.r Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I use the voltage controll app. Been playing with OC only recently and feels1.2 makes it real smooth. Dont think mild overclocking will harm it, extreme OC to 1.4or even 1.5may cause damage.

abhi.r 95 Report post Posted January 11, 2012 Currently I am on ACS ICS v5. 5 with Shadow kernel. Whenever I overclock and undervolt using Voltage Control my phone restarts. Only overclocking is fine, but undervolt makes the phone to restart. Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
csmart 472 Report post Posted January 13, 2012 ^^^ can you explain how to do it? i tried it but could only overclock the CPU. I couldn't change the volt. thanx in advance Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
abhi.r 95 Report post Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) Open Voltage Control > Switch to Voltage Tab> Select the frequency > Move the slider to undervolt. You can select different voltage settings for different frequencies. Then save changes. Hope your phone don't restart like my phone do. I'm on ACS ICS v5. 5 with Shadow kernel 1.0.0.6 iirc Installing too many apps drain battery? My phone drains 20% battery ever 1.5hrs minimum use with EVDO on.

digitalnirvana 646 Report post Posted January 13, 2012 The post was towards your query of undervolting not working, certain ROMs work better with setCPU than voltage control. That performance was without any overclocking or any undervolt. You Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk Try calibrating the battery please. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
shadow 119 Report post Posted January 13, 2012 (edited) Then do not undervolt, it damages the circuit. as far as my knowledge allows me, undervolting never damages the circuit but only alter the behavior of the output, even the same case with overclocking but becoz of the heat produced by extra voltage, the circuit gets into "thermal runaway conditions" ,so dont worry, undervolting will not get onto ur nerves, if u are ranging the voltage insanely from the specified it will get into random reebots, "but if it is your bad/worst day, cpu will go mad, so never try to do undervolting too much" abhi.r if u want save some battery , using titanium pro, uninstal wimax things , i am getting almost a 30min increase in battery after i did, becoz ur mobile will keep on looking for wimax signals at regular intervals even though u didnt turn it on,thats kind of drain the battery, Edited January 13, 2012 by shadow Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

abhi.r 95 Report post Posted January 14, 2012 When in college my friend tried to overclock his pentium4 machine to the extreme... Smoke is what I saw and burned marks near the processor in the motherboard. Lol Tho there were 3 cpu fans including water Cooling system using jugaad tech.. and 2 guys with table fans and a fire extinguisher borrowed from our hostel. We too expected for some explosions but nothing as such happened. Regarding battery life... Removed Advanced task killer app, and now phone is giving good backup... 10% with EVDO on (no browsing tho, only timely sync) and too much calling in 2.5 hrs.
