I thought CW3 did ext4 not rfs.

and get gten, I know all about backing up via rooted, but since I couldn't get my PC to root my epic. My morning was TERRIBLE with the phone. I can't get to anything and the buttons mostly do nothing. I'm going to have to go and reflash it.

it takes minutes for phone calls to pick up and when they do, it says "3-way call".

ugh and when you make a call, it takes about 30 seconds for the screen to change though the call goes through. I feel like I'm back on the tp2

you must really have a bad flash or something. i dont have any of the issues you speak of and had no problem rooting and instaling clock work. i didnt use the latest thought. i used one click root 2.4 with clock work and superuser built in. i used the sumsung updater to flash eb13. superclean install and no bugs found yet. what method did you use to update?

ODin to di18, reinstalled my apps/data. Then update.zip

In landscape mode, I can't drag the unlock to the missed message notification (right swipe)
Exchange no longer updates the task bar with new mail notes.

The keyboard isn't missing characters anymore from what I see.

Hi Revaaron,

It sounds like something may not have updated correctly. EB13 is much better in terms of speed and battery life for me than DK28 was. Also multitasking is working much better.

I did a full flash that erased everything on the phone since DK28 wasn't supported as an OTA or .ZIP update. I found that it really helped the phone preform better as well.

Maybe you can do a back up and flash it back to stock. I know it may be annoying, but I'll bet you will have a better experience.

Good Luck!

i didnt even use a back up. i did a claen install of eb13 from bonsai(dk28 based) using the samsung installer. gmail keeps my contacts and i used an app called "app backup/reinstaller". it only backs up the .apk for reinstallation. took about 5 minutes to reinstall everything, then another 5 to change a few settings and put all my widgets back. even though dk28 to eb13 was still froyo to froyo, i didnt want to restore a backup, just to have a real true clean install.

@Biggnaa20: I already did exactly what you said the first time.

Did you use the Update.zip? Or the Windows version that flashed the whole thing? I've read on the Androidcentral site that a few folk had issues upgrading with the Zip method.

I used the windows that took my personal Epic back to stock, but that was because of DK28, but I used the Update.zip method to upgrade my boss' phone (I couldn't stand him being on Eclair a second longer...).

If you've already flashed and it was back to stock, I don't know what to say beside maybe try again.

Sucks that it didn't work cleanly.
