CyanogenMod 10 is a free, community built distribution of Android 4.1 (Jelly Bean) which greatly extends the capabilities of your phone.

Code:
#include <std_disclaimer.h>

 * Your warranty is now void.
 *
 * I am not responsible for bricked devices, dead SD cards,
 * thermonuclear war, or you getting fired because the alarm app failed. Please

 * you point the finger at me for messing up your device, I will laugh at you.

This is the support thread for CM10 on the Samsung Epic 4G. It's a major work in progress. It may cause all the things in the disclaimer to happen, or steal your girlfriend while you are busy flashing ROMs.

WARNING: If you are not already on an official CM10 build, this will wipe your data due to a resizing of the mtd partitions. If you wish to go back to another ROM, you will need to ODIN back to stock.


Recommended steps before you install:
1. Install AppBak from Market, run it and save a list of all your apps.
2. Install SMS Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your SMS history.
3. Install Call Logs Backup and Restore from Market, run it and backup your call log history.
4. Boot into CWM recovery. Make a full Backup. You will need this backup later if you decide to go back to your previous ROM and data.

Additional Disclaimer:
Any bug reports coming from an Unofficial cm10 build, or a modified/patched Official cm10 build (modem patch, kernels, etc.) should be directed to the originating thread. It is hard enough to provide bug support for the official releases without having to worry about bugs that may have been introduced by outside means. Bug reports are very welcome if you can reproduce them after flashing back to an official, stock build. We do want to be able to fix all the things. Thank you.

Far Far Away
Bugs I am aware of

Before you flash make sure you have the correct modem!!!

If you flash CM10 with non epic modem you will have issues!!!

Flashing CM10 from any other Rom will wipe data!!!

To flash FROM CM10 > TO any other rom will require Odin to repartition!!


Use FC09

Currently the head set Mic does not work.

There are some occasional random reboots.

There is also an issue with how the phone sleeps while on charge.

Not sure I got clarity on this: is it using the NS4G modem and patch or expecting one of the recent official standard epic modems?

One nice feature (although still under review and not yet merged):
Go to Settings -> Performance, and check the option for High end graphics effects. It will give you the cool dimming effect when you pull down the notification screen. It may or may not require a reboot to take effect, I forget.

EDIT: The screen already dims, but this will make the notification pulldown semi-transparent. And yes, requires a reboot to take effect.

    Just a little teaser for something I've been working on.

    Updates for next nightly (0911):

    1. Volumes levels boosted to match CM9 level adjustments.
    2. Added CIFS (tested with built-in VPN connection and the CIFS Manager app).
    3. Working wired headset mic (although buttons don't work yet).
    4. Performance & Interactive governors are working more properly as they were in the Preview build, & the lockup when changing max frequency has been fixed.

    Cool, the latest nightly has the touch key brightness adjust incorporated.

    It also should have a fix for the random reboots :)

    Oh, and also the fix to keep 4g on during sleep.
