I want to go to EB13 from EC05 and am having a hard time figuring it out. I know I have to root . and use odin too but i dont wanna brick my phone. I want the synergy 5.0 viper rom. can anyone point me in the right direction?
U can't brick your phone with odin. Odin is used to recover bricked phones. So odin away. odin eb13, it dosnt matter if odin fails, u can allways odin again . After odin. One click root, three finger boot, install rom. Have fun...
There's odin videos on youtube if u havnt used odin before

Try going into settings/applications/manage/all. Then go to Market and clear data. If that doesn't work, go into clockwork and wipe cache 3x then advanced and wipe Dalvik cache 3x. If that doesn't work, wipe data/system,cache,and Dalvik Cache 3x and reflash

U can flash a market.zip in clockwork, just make sure its edify. Midnight rom zip has a lot of edify zips there might be one in there

I am running sydicate frozen 1.2 w genocide kernel ec05. When I first rooted and installed my new rom n junk, I could flash any ec05 nocid noproblem but now I keep gettng FCs after flashin between a couple themes. Even if I clear both caches, hard reset, reinstall ROM, etc and try a fresh install w a theme. Everything I tried will still result in FCs now. I tried everything but reflash stock ROM and reflash SRF but I don't see how reflashing stock ROM then SRf would be any different. Any idea what gives?
Any help is appreciated.

You have data corruption. You will have to wipe everything and start over on a fresh Rom. Use the .zip in the SFR thread to turn on journaling once you have the new rom flashed.

Install your ROM, reboot, then CIQ, then Themes... Sometimes doing them all in the same CWM session junks'em up. =)

I'm running a ROM w nociq. I prefer nociq. I only do 1 flash per cwm boot. Unless its a boot screen or something that won't interfer.
Should I be running CIQ to prevent this? If so, is that even possible without flashing a ciq rom?

Rooted Epic 4g EC05 Stock rom
You have to provide more information so we can help you out. What ROM are you installing? What is your current recovery? Are you using the purp 3.1.0.1? Did you wipe System/data, cache partition, and Dalvik Cache 3x? We can get you straightened out. Just give some more details.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
all ROM's do it but im trying to convert over to ext4 and run syndicate ROM . Yes i have wiped data/factory restore and flushed dalvik 3x every time... cwm recovery v2.5.1.0
you cant install srf 1.2 on that recovery.. you need to upgrade to 3.1.0.1, cwm2x does not support ext4
You need to update clockwork to 3.1.0.1. You're using an outdated recovery.

Rom manager doesn't really work for epic. You have to turn off your phone and then hold camera, vol down and power to get into your recovery. Check qbking's videos. They will make a lot of sense. You may want to odin your phone and restart. I'm not sure how much craziness you may have started. Backup major stuff with Titanium and everything will pretty much be normal without major loss.
Wow, its been a while since I was that far back on recovery. Let me check TheRoot's link...EDIT..yup TheRoot's link has a flashable version of the 3.1.0.1 recovery that will get you right where you want to be to flash all of the current batch of ROMs. PM me if you get stuck and I will go step by step

After you finish, download ACS updater and it'll give you the goodness you were looking for in Rom Manager. There's also a support thread in Apps.

If you're flashing SRF 1.2, don't worry. It's built in. Just flash the rom, journaling on and a kernel and you're on your way. Use the thanks button as well, please.

I would try going step by step. First go into settings/applications. Go to Maps and force stop and clear data. Try the app again. If that doesn't work, do the same again then power down. Boot into recovery, wipe cache partition and Dalvik cache 3x and reboot. If that doesn't work, wipe everything and hopefully you have a good nandroid backup. If not, you may have to flsh the ROM again. Odin shouldn't be necessary on this one.

I thought that was a typo myself. I think he was referring to EG22 modem from a thread I read earlier
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Actually..i have no idea. When i flashed the eg22...i still had the vision kernel on there. I was fine for a few hours, things went bad when i tried to put gen 2.0 on. My phone never liked gen 2.0 but since i changed mods, i thought things would change. i uploaded gen from acs updater, but of course, it sent me to blue recovery..so i booted up into cwm after i pulled batt. when she came back on, everything started force closing and text messages wasnt working. I went back to eco5 and now everything is fine. Now that i think about it, since it was a leak, maybe it wasnt compatible with set cpu..hmm. As far as the map thing..i tried everything....then it dawned on me. Just delete it and install from market..she brand new now and maps is running.
Just asking cause I flashed the starburst rom and it boot looped my phone. I got into the main screen once but, the task bar kept force closing and it kept boot looping... Any help would be great.

Yes this is the Sprint Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch section.
Did you make a nandroid backup 1st? (If Yes, restore your backup) Did you go into "mounts and storage" and format "/system" before you wiped data/cache/dalvik cache?
Odin another rom.
Search for and download odin v1.85. Then download a .tar file. Where ever you find these items, you'll also find good instructions.
Then try flashing starburst again.

Yes, I did make a nand and got back to it, the starburst rom section told me to flash through cwm. But, it didn't work. I odined a tar last night, I'm fine now, but, how should I go about flashing again? Yes, I did wipe.
I'm running the oc'd zedomax or however thats spelled.

Did you format /system prior to flashing Starburst? That'll cause bootloops if you failed to do so.
Yup, did that, what cwm do I need?

I would suggest 5.0.2.3, or 5.0.2.6 Also...make sure you format cache/dalvik/data/system at least 3X each. If that doesn't work, then try redownloading the ROM. Might've gotten a borked download.

Use this: LoStkernel or this: CWM
But I'm willing to bet that you either didn't format system in the mounts and storage menu or it didn't take when you tried. I would retry StarBurst again first, making sure to Format System Under Mounts and Storage and making sure it succeeds. Then you won't have to worry about any of the other stuff.
Yeah, CWM can be quirky

So you're stuck at the Samsung Galaxy SII loading screen? Is that right?
If that's so, use this to get back to stock and proceed from there (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394332)
