I did the OTA update to ECO5. I rooted/installed CWM using this. When I restart to CWM it goes through the initial setup, then backs up my files, then for some reason restores some files (which I don't want restored). After it is finished, I reboot the phone and it doesn't go past the Samsung screen. I have to stock flash, update, and root again. I did this 3x so far. I even deleted the CWM folder from my SD card which had the backup folder..what do I do?
Its backing up your files to convert you to an ext4 filesystem. Then it restores all the files. After its done you have to flash an ext4 compatiable kernel it it wont boot you. The stock kernel can not support ext4. So after its done flash whatever rom/kernel combo you want or just a kernel. Then your phone will boot up.

Thanks much for your prompt response. What would be your recommendation for rom/kernal and kernal alone?
Midnight rom is really nice

Its all up to you but if you want stock rom and custom kernel I'd go with genocide by rodderick. I'm actually on acs frozen rom with genocide kernel. Awesome combo.

I have the acs frozen rom currently. Do I just "install zip file" through CWM to get the Genocide Kernal? Does it clear everything if I do so?

ODIN your phone back to stock, use the pre rooted one that comes with clockworkmod 3, then wipe data and flash.

Yeah that's what I did. I odined back 2 DI-18 & waited 4 the OTA EC05. Did the cwm 2.5. Didn't work do I odined did the while EC05 again & cwm 3. Still didn't work

Did you wipe data 3x?
If so and it still doesn't work, odin back to eb13 and flash Rom then odin the Ec05 modem back.
May work for you?
Yeah I wiped 3x. I have no problem installing other roms besides this 1. I odined & everything. Even redownloaded 2 see if it was a bad download but its still the same. The EC05 modem I got from the OTA update

Odin back to EB13 and try flashing the rom. Then odin the EC05 tar file and see if that fixes it for you. I'm assuming that you are rooted and converted to EXT4? Probably are but I just thought I'd ask to be sure.
I am no expert by any means and I'm only telling you info I have gathered through lots of research and trial and error when I first started my journey to the promised land.
I tried using the tar file 4 EC05 4 odin & it says failed. That's why I did the OTA update cause I didn't know the actual update was EC05. Do now I really don't know wat 2 u. It frustrates me cause I flash shout of roms, go from modem 2 modem & like I don't knew anymore

Cool, same thing happened to me,last night at 6 am. I was reading, and flashing, and Odin'ing, and re rerooting. I thought it was time to get the OTA to froyo. So I Flashed ACS syndicate EXT 4 Rom. I also got the Stuck Vibrating sasung logo. I booted into clockwork recovery after I had this problem, once I saw it working I was calm. Then I wiped data and cache once... 3 times is the normal ammount though according to professionals. I then reinsalled ACS syndicate Rom. This time is stayed on CWM recovery after it finished and asked me what I wanted to do. Reboot, or wipe, or all those options on the CWM main screen. So then I chose to reboot. And it started up perfect. ACS rom is so fast, so smooth, so slick. I love it. And I love the Epic on 2.2. Apps to SD AND flash player... my phone is now good, andi enjoy bing on it. Battery life is average. But I haven't calibrated properly. Best of luck hope that helps you and others. When I read your post I was like Oh snap tha just happened to me! LOL hours later I'm rooted and customi;ng the **** out of my epic. XDA premium APP rules all!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
Which new roms ACS came out with?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA Premium App
The new frozen, with no checkerboarding. EXT 4 Tom.
I was on syndicate rom on eclair. One of the only Tom's I've flashed because of kokanes presentation,and product. I flashed, it owned ..and i stayed with it. On 2.2 it'd smoother,and clean and simple. I'm sold. And I appreciate the rom.

Hello I'm new to the epic 4g and now that I have it rooted and ready to rom, I've read on different threads where people talk about being either "ext4" or rfs. What does this mean? I'm afraid that ill do something wrong and mess up my phone. if somebody could explain to me the difference it would be greatly appreciated thanks!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
EXT4 and RFS are file systems. Just about every Epic rom other than Stock uses EXT4 because it's the faster file system.
Oh ok that makes sense. So then how would I go about converting to ext4? Would I need to do this before I flash a rom?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Installing clockworkmod 3.0 automatically puts you on the EXT4 file system.
Sweet. Thanks man one more question, what's up with all the ECO5, EB13 stuff and something about updating your modem?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
EC05 is the most recent update. You have to update your modem through ODIN in order to have data/ service work correctly.

You don't HAVE to use Odin to update the modem, there is a flashable zip around here somewhere also. Plus if your comming from stock you should be able to update to stock ec05 OTA (over the air) if your not already on it. To check what build/modem your already on go to settings-about phone-baseband version

Then you're good to go.
ACSRecovery was originally based on CWM4 and for the Epic 4G. I updated it to CWM5 source base, and Also ported it to ET4G.
It has menu optimizations to be more efficient
New reboot menu
PreROM wipe that wipes /data and caches
PreTheme wipe that wipes caches
ACS Branding
Various underhood tweaks.

Any updates made to the recovery? On 1.0.0.0 wipe data does not appear to be working. Also when you backup to internal SD it skips android_secure because it is looking for it on internal SD.

i got the full el30 update
rooted
flashed the el30 kernel
and everything was working perfect
later i tried flashing thunderhawk
it finished installing pretty quick
and then i got stuck at boot up
flashed cm7 and got an "installation aborted" msg
restored a backup of thunderhawk on ei22
and it worked and i had the el30 modem
so i went to cwm and factory reseted it cuz i ddint want the whole settings of it all and my desktop and apps and stuff
then i got stuck at bootup again
i restored my backup again and its working now i have thunderhawk on the el30 modem
my question is basically do any roms work on el30??
why does my back up restore and work but when i flash a new rom it doesnt work???
Maybe bad downloads? Did you try Factory Data Reset and then immediately flash the ROM?

Yeah but once you do that and install your ROM, you are completely EI22 again except for the modem. For that you can restore your backup and just flash the modem delta.
