You don't need to be running any of those unless the ROM your going to flash is based off of those and can't be used with EC05.
You will be fine just following the one click root thread

Just to clarify, EC05 is the latest official modem version of software. E being for the year 2011, C for the month March and 05 for the 5th day. The DK28 and EB13 are older modems and versions of software.

In addition, just so you're not surprised if you see it there is another modem (EE03) that some ROMs recommend you flash. I have it on my phone and works great
Hey thanks everybody! It is greatly appericiated. Just been getting confused over the dual stuff and all the other numbers when I say dual I mean like on you tube I was watching installs of like a few of viper roms and seen it said dual guessing that means rfs or ext4? I apologize bout all the questions just being cautious to make sure I get it right. Thanks again to everyone

Glad it works for you. I get no 3G. Icon on but no network and then it kills the battery. EC05 is best for 2.2 for my area.

I'm not entirely sure.
But odex is basically stock, and deodexed is having removed all of the files with the ".odex" extension.
And most themes require deodexed roms

You flash it, of course.
As I mentioned in one of my earlier posts, I am a total nube at all this, I don't think I'm even sure what it means to flash it. I'm only interested in fresh because from my understanding, it contains the latest OTA for my evo. Please correct me if I'm incorrect, I welcome as much help as I can get. I appreciate it guys.

If you don't know what it means to flash, then you need to do some serious research.
And don't come asking simple questions that you can very easily answer yourself by browsing through the forum, searching the forum, or googling your question. If you do, you're gonna get flamed by a lot of people.
Funny you would mention that, I was just researching it for myself. Thanks for the warning.... Appreciate it.

Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
The deodexed version is themeable, the odex version has a slightly faster boot time and uses less space in system. That's the quick and dirty answer, anyway. If you want to modify it at all, flash the deodexed version, otherwise just flash the odexed version.
You're going to flash it the same way you'd flash any other rom. Follow the directions in the thread, I'm not sure if you'll need to flash the updated radios, etc. If you don't know how to flash a rom - I know you have a custom rom installed, but a lot of people have someone else root/flash for them - there should be a walkthrough floating around somewhere. If you need help or just want clarification, shoot me a pm. I have a fairly lengthy write up on everything to do with rooting/flashing/recovery/etc, I'd be happy to send you that or help you out.

The wimax, prl, and radio are optional; they will update what the are supposed to. You'll only brick your phone if you do a battery pull/battery dies during an update of the radio. You don't have to update any of those if you don't want to, but just wipe the cache and dalvik, then flash if you want to.

Nothing really besides having an updated connection possibilities...PRI can affect your battery, but if its good, no need to change it. Yea, its sense 1.0, and there are sense 3.0 roms out there.

Why bother with the OTA? It breaks recovery. Just flash an EI22 ROM. Flash the EC05 to EI22 modem delta if you want that.
Do you have a stock one you recommend? I am looking for as close to what sprint has released as I can. I found the modem, just need the rest of gingerbread now.

If you mean you can flash a GB ROM from EC05 then yes or if you mean the EC05 modem works on GB ROMs then also yes. There is a EC05toEI22 modem delta flashable in the Development forum stickies.
Found what I needed from kennyglass 123
One click roots do not work on Gingerbread. It would have been easier to flash a GB prerooted ROM while still on Froyo like this one:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/show...=deodexed+EI22
Now that she did the OTA you will need to follow this:

I got gingerbread loaded I will look into the modem and the gps fixs later.
Thanks guys for your help!

this has everything you need to know
(this is the first video of qbking for ei22/el30)
No I'm meaning you need a stock modded for cwm to stick other wise it won't and once you odined the kernel you'll need to odin the cwm and you be fine look for the "epic gb kernel source with keyfix" by mkasick and scroll down to find the GB 3 a.tar which is the kernel and if you go to android development for the epic and go to the stickies or the "top" post find the [CWM] ClockworkMod 5.0.2.7 officially supported. Find the .tar to download and just follow the instructions. If you need a video search qbking77 on youtube he's very reliable

Welcome to rooting.. so if im getting your question right you want to go to a new ROM possibly.. and youre on AOSP..well since you are new I would suggest using a one click odin (your choice ) and start from there since you are on A JB build ...

+1 for one click of your choice, make sure you pick a full wipe one though.

I would flash over the EL26 CWM kernel, first it just makes it easier for you, and is a very safe recovery to flash from.
Thank you guys, actually I just wanted to know what to do when I decide to explore others roms but for now I really like this one so Ima stay here a while I didnt knew rooting would be this cool but new roms and with apps like setcpu this is very nice, thanks again.

Oh I see well all is your choice on the path..one major thing I suggest is when moving from ROM to ROM back up your apps ..(non system apps)and make sure to wipe on a safe recoveries (Kuban kernel, agats, el26) problems can arise from dirty installs
I also suggest ROM toolbox from the play store its a great tool that basically does everything
