I recently installed this ROM and I am happy with it so far. There is just one glitch I noticed and I cannot remember if this happened at all on the stock ROM, although I don't think it did. When I'm done talking on the phone and pull it away from my fat head, the screen lights up like it should, but I cannot hit the END button for like 2-3 seconds. Shouldn't it "take" right away?

I found this thread... [How To] Return to Stock / Fix Bricked Epic - xda-developers
Tried to get started but the link to the Odin program isn't active or isn't working.
Can anyone provide step by step directions for me? With hyperlinks to downloads?
I am a NOOB and don't really know how I got Baked Snack. It's really a pretty sweet ROM but I'd like to go back to stock soon so that I can get the OTA Froyo update when it is officially released.
All of this stuff scares me but it really is awesome at the same time!
well im new to this rooting thing, my evo was sucessfully rooted then i started to look around for ROMS and Kernals and i see that baked snack 1.8 is pretty good so i downloaded it put it on my SD card, wiped my phone and cache and when it is opening the zip file that it is in, it says (BAD) and doesnt work, can somebody tell me what im doing wrong, btw i saw on the baked snack website saying that i need to have the lastest wimax update and newest radio, are these things im going to need or i have to make sure my phone already has those things.

View 8 Replies View RelatedI loaded Baked Snack Beta 9.7 ROM last night and have nothing but good things to say. It's over clocked to 1113 using Set CPU. The overall phone runs extremely fast and smooth and I have not had any FC's or random reboots. I also score approximately 1 MFLOP higher than Fresh Rom 1.0.1. Bottom line I am very happy and I had never even heard of this ROM until yesterday.
View 16 Replies View RelatedHey guys, I really liked the speediness of BS1.7 when I tried it yesterday, but I didn't like the subtle changes to the UI so I reverted back to the stock rom. Does anyone know if it's possible to customize a rom? My main gripe with BS was the bar at the bottom of the phone was changed from a gray/silver color to a transparent black. If I could change that and reinstall certain apps that weren't included (like Sprint Nav), I think it'd be perfect. If not, then is it possible to flash a kernel using the stock rom? I'm mainly trying to overclock the cpu.

Let me know if it looks good .. I would have taken a screenshot but have to set up my email.
I'm rocking the HTC Evo (obviously) and am enjoying the deliciousness of Baked Snack 1.7 (with what I believe to be the #6 kernel). My one gripe with this ROM is that any music player I use (HTC, Stock Android, Music Mod) causes whatever track I'm listening to to restart randomly if I leave it paused for too long. I'm listening to audio books (Stephen King), so it's a pain to have to keep on finding where I left off. This happens if I let the screen go dark, plug in the USB cable, you name it. Does anyone know why this might be and if there's a workaround for it happening? The HTC player on stock Sense did not have this problem.

View 9 Replies View RelatedI used Unrevoked 3 to attain root and have flashed Baked Snack 1.7 onto my phone with Clockworkmod.
Everything seems to be well and good save for my phone is no longer detected by my computer. It will not accept a charge and will not detect as a removable disk.
I've updated to the latest WiMax update per instructions on Baked Snack's website.
Have I missed a step?
when I plug the cable into my phone, the "Select which type of connection to use" box appears for a split second then diappears. The battery is not taking a charge nor is the phone detectable on my computer. I've installed the hboot drivers prior to using unrevoked 3.
After i do simple root into my phone how do i than install baked snack? 9.6 or 9.7?

View 8 Replies View RelatedI've been through three different car mounts so far, they of the "universal" variety... one with rubber side clamps, one padded, both with feet underneath... none of them were to my liking... didn't hold my Epic well enough, either fell out (thankfully while I was monitoring it) or felt like it could if I hit too big a bump. My question is if anyone has found a really good car mount yet, specifically for the Epic preferably? I prefer a windshield mount, but I'm willing to consider other options if it's sturdy and I can position it decently in my car.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI had pretty bad battery life today, took off the charger at 11:30, just plugged in at 15% 11 hours later, with a short charge in the car on the way to a late lunch. No text messages, no emails, no phone calls . I got a few apps off the market, did a little web surfing, & watched one 4 minute youtube video. This is my first Android phone, I had a HTC Touch Pro before this. BTW - The lack of comms today is because I'm not working right now, but in the middle of federal hiring process with the next appointment on the 13th, wish me luck. Bluetooth, GPS, and wifi are always off. Screen brightness is left at the lowest level. This is all shown with the Power Control widget on a home screen. I also have the Samsung Program Monitor widget on the same screen, and nothing stays running. Auto sync is always off, I rarely actually use gmail. The stock email app is set to check two other email accounts every hour.
I tried a little test, but just don't know what to make of it. I have Battery Monitor and Android Manager Free installed. Whenever I mention Task Manager, I accessed it through AMF. Before beginning, I removed the Weather Channel widget from the home screen and terminated the app in the Task Manager. I had installed a BBC news app today, but uninstalled before testing; it automatically updated a couple times today and showed up in Task Manager after I terminated it. I made sure Background Data was turned off, I generally only turn it back on when I launch the Market (gives a popup saying it needs it). I plugged the charger in with the phone at 26% charge, just for a minute to reset the last time unplugged. Using Battery Monitor (which apparently just shortcuts to the built-in Android battery monitoring screens found through Settings) I checked the status periodically, along with seeing what was active in Task Manager. Every 5 to 10 minutes I would press the power button to turn on the display, then check Battery history - Since last unplugged. I'd check the Task Manager, terminate Battery Monitor and AMF, then press the power button to turn the screen off............

View 1 Replies View RelatedI've tried looking at the videos and pics, but I am unable to see if there is a Tab key. The Tab key is very nice for completing online forms and logins. The original Touch Pro had this key, but they ditched it on the 2nd version.
Anyone know about this yet? Or does Android have another way for tabbing?
I upgraded from a Samsung Exclaim to a Epic via Sprint (Obviously, lol) I put the sd card from the old phone into the new one and put the pics onto my desktop. They're in a format called jpg.md I can't put them on the new phone. I've googled, and contacted Samsung, neither of which has helped. Any suggestions?

View 1 Replies View RelatedI was talking on the phone, and another call came in (call waiting). Suddenly, my phone just restarted itself. Fortunately the reboot time is very fast, but of all the bugs to possibly run into on any cell phone, the scariest is the idea of dropping calls. I am convinced this may be a software glitch that will get fixed with an update.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI may just be losing it, but is there a way to reboot the Epic via key combo? i.e. to reboot the i Phone you just continue to hold power, to reboot a blackberry you do crtl + right caps + delete...but there doesn't seem to be any way to reboot the epic and it is really, really annoying. Been having this bug that Tasker is causing and I need to reboot the phone every morning, and I need to do it once I get away from my home wifi, so when I walk out of the building I have to keep fiddling with the on and off buttons while walking...long story short I would really like an easier way of doing a quick and easy reboot that doesn't require extra steps to turn the phone back on once I've turned it off.
View 4 Replies View RelatedI decided to install Launcher Pro and Home Switcher last night. Since Launcher Pro's contact button didn't work, I decided to un-install LP. *In case you're wondering, each time I clicked on the Contacts icon/button of LP, I would get an error pop-up saying that it was unable to launch (something to this effect.) Anyway, after I un-installed the LP I decided to also un-install the HS - with using just having to use TW - I figured I don't need HS anymore. So I removed HS from my Applications, but I am STILL getting the pop-up window each time I go to my home screen! So annoying! How do I get this off my home screen? I am trying to avoid doing a Factory Reset, because I don't want to have to input all my contacts manually again! Google didn't sync all my contacts, so this would mean having to start all over on setting up my phone. Unless someone can suggest a contacts backup program to place on my PC?
