Alright I believe I have killed data on this for now. Gonna try again as soon as this v2 download finishes and I flash it.
Must get CM9 Phone/Contacts/MMS to all work with this!

Anyone able to get widget locker working or is it not ICS compatible? TW lock screen is awful.

finally flashed this bad boy No FC's and no LOS as of yet. Did notice that I am not getting a GPS icon at the top when using maps. GPS seems to be working but I have wireless network location turned on right now so not sure if it is GPS or wireless networks getting my location to about 40 meters.

Thanks to everyone involved and great work!

Code:
adb push phone.apk /system/apps/phone.apk
adb shell chmod 644 /system/apps/phone.apk

Do that from the recovery console, not while the phone is on normally.

Rinse, repeat. If that doesn't work, I don't see you having much luck.

I just read this thread from the beginning to the current end right now.

I really wish I didnt need a working phone right now otherwise I would test this build real quick.

Just curious I seen some mentions that the build is ICS but has some gingerbread qualities still? Is this just referring to the look or features from ICS are missing as well i.e. like the app drawer, swiping notifications and task manager ( which idk why but is the feature im looking forward to the most)?

There isn't a bureaucracy to deal with on XDA. Also a lot of the "problems" are not problems by intentionally added by Samsung for debugging/deving.

This. 3g/4g/wifi worked fine this morning with the .tar file, but that couldn't be released so workarounds were found.

Root isn't supposed to be injected.

And the red bug was intentionally placed there.

Culprit = Touchwiz

Nova launcher can fix it though but not the overall ICS feel

It looks the same as before but it has the features you just mentioned. So, what people mean is Touchwiz hasnt changed.

Works fine on windows. Holding back a statement here ..

Haha I kid. But really, dunno why mac would have problems. I have the same drivers I've always used.

There's a 17 minute review video up in the OP link to give you a full taste of what it's like. It's fully functional minus GPS and CWM and MMS. Minus the occasional LOS that just takes a restart to fix.

ICS task manager is in this build, as well as swiping notifications. App drawer is TW GB themed tho.

    A little for you guys to drool over, it's definitely more stable & finished off than FB09 is but before everyone bombards me with PM & request, I'm leaving to go to a b-day party and won't be back till late, so don't expect this until tomorrow

    This thread is meant to be used to help with the progress of the FB17 and FB09 leaks. Thanks to everyone who has pooled together.

    --------------------------------------------

    FB17:

    Working: 3g, 4g, Wifi, Bluetooth, MMS, SMS, Face Unlock

    Sketchy: GPS (not working for all), No root, No recovery

    MANY PEOPLE are having issues with .zip file, so it is recommended to use the .TAR files for FB17. Flash at your own risk, as always!

    All needed files are here: http://forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php?4961-Samsung-Epic-4g-Touch-FB17

    --------------------------------------------

    FB09 (OLD):

    Working: 3g + 4g, Wifi, Bluetooth, Face Unlock

    Not Working:
    MMS (Workaround, use GoSMS from the Market).

    CWM Recovery (Workaround, use ROM Manager to install CWM on a GSII (not E4GT) and you'll have a permanent recovery to make backups, flash other ROMs, etc...).

    Loss of Service (Wordaround, keep your 4g on - even if you don't get 4g coverage - this seems to stop LOS from occuring).

    GPS (No known work around yet)

    ---------

    Some tips:

    Keyboard Issues? Go to settings > input & keyboard > default keyboard and change it to Swype to start. That will get rid of the laghag that Samsung has delivered us. Then you can grab a keyboard from the market or sideload one. Or just stick with Swype as it's working fine.

    If you want ICS looking icons until a theme is released, download ROM TOOLBOX PRO and you can switch out icons.

    EL29 seems to be working best for most, so I'd recommend using that when coming to this ROM.

    GO SMS works for sending MMS as a work-around for the time being.

    Need to go back to stock? Try a different kernel? All located here: http://115media.net/scarmon25/Epic4GTouch/
