Flash bonsai as normal (wipe 3x, etc) and then advanced restore data.
Did the news get around about a guy named butcher pete?

Thanks for the help...It worked..I really appreciate it..also for the quick response..

Trouble installing roms with EC05

Everytime I flash a rom that requires EC05 it flashes like it's taking out in recovery & then when it boots up it stays on the black & white Samsung screen. Phone will vibrate & screen will go black with the white notifications at the bottom still lite, then it goes back 2 the Samsung screen

More info is necessary, what version of clockwork are you using? What rom are you trying to install?

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!

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.

turn off sig verification, or unzip the cwm-flashable, and use DD to flash it
What kernel is this based on? I really like your recovery and I was wondering if I needed to flash the EK02 kernel again after updating to your recovery?
Potential mod, version, or port to the OG Epic!?...that new compatable ROM manager version just doesn't stick...I wind up in ACS CWM4 version and have to flash a zip everytime I want to use CWM5...smh

Its stock repacked EF02 with ACS Recovery. You flash this and you're all set unless I am in the wrong thread but I don't think I am. After you flash it, go to settings /about phone and check there

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.

Did you rename the nandroid? If you did and there are any spaces in your new name, that is the issue. Rename the backup again replacing any spaces with "-" or "_" and you should be good to go.

do any roms work on el30 or am i having a different problem??

ok so i was gonna delete this.. but im getting really confused..
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.
