Just got eg22 setup like I want...maybe just drop the new modem in and see how it likes it. I just need better battery life.

Can anyone report on running the new modem with ec05?
Cd's or tapes?

Ok, I hope this gets done. It looks effen great. EC05 is a good choice. We would probably get a reboot on GB before we were done playing with it at first..

Kk guys, uploading to megaupload now...this is definitely gonna take a while
It should be a complete phone image, writing over every partition (as is the case with all Samsung tars)...there's definitely a modem in it, but as far as pulling it, I don't know, I'm not knowledgeable enough about pulling things out of tars.
I'm going to put a link in here first before posting it up in development because I need somebody to test it in Odin. We use a pre-packaged .exe here to flash phones, so Im not able to test it with Odin (though I can't foresee it failing as the tars have always been identical to the ones we use here at xda). So when it's up, please test and let me know.
Hang tight for a while, megauploads quoting the ETA at 2 hours....
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I think it would definitely be cool to upload this for us. Easy way for everyone to flash back to factory. Might even root now if this is the correct stock file.
Actually scratch that ETA, our neighbors wifi is too slow, I'm gonna have to wait until I get home at 6. So sometime tonight

More importantly, this theoretically has the EG30 modem, something we don't have right now and no one has been able to obtain yet. Everything else we can make do with the pulled versions.
Love to have this simply as a back up as well until the next official tar is out. Thanks for when you get this up. And thanks for mirroring it Chris.

Battery! :) sprint OTA update to Gingerbread EK02

The Galaxy s 2 Epic 4g touch sprint OTA update to Gingerbread EK02 tweaked the battery and kernel like no other. wow.. I advise people revert to stock via odin and just get the OTA.. it updates when it reboots and then says there's an error with the yellow triangle but simply reboot your phone again.

I'm starting to not want this update. Seems like very mixed reviews.
Facepalm...
You used the wrong tar, when you updated, the update failed (hence the yellow explanation point). No worries, head over to the dev section and Odin the modem only in phone. Odin the EG30 modem then flash the ek02 modem in RECOVERY. Or since eg31 is working for you, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.

I bought a spare battery from Amazon for like $15. Fits in my wallet. On a related note, it may be a placebo, but rebooting after unplugging seems to prevent the Android OS bug.

I've noticed worse battery life too. LOS was not much of an issue for me and with vipers Los checker I never noticed a LOS. Im going to play with ek02 for the rest of the next week but if I don't get any better results I plan on rolling back to E30.

[Q] One week deep. LOS/Sleepy Radio software or radio based?

I like the hardware but this loss of service thing is annoying.
Has anyone determined if this is a software issue? Sprints network isnt great but my evo 3d fares much better.
Ive read around on the internet and I THOUGHT I read a post that mentioned a user reverting to EG30 which solved his/her problem. Only thing that isnt positive is whether the user reverted to software EG30 or baseband EG30.
Any insight into this issue, how to revert to an earlier software version? Ive tried various radios but not software. I appreciate your time.
I'm having same problem....my evo 3d had no problem with Los but my e4gt is terrible where I live.....I was told to try different modems but I tried FCO7 AND FC14 still the same.

Hmm, what do you mean by "loss of service"?
This is a term used specifically to describe losing service while the phone says it has service...

Ok, maybe that is incorrect.
Just using it, for example sending a tweet or an email, one may send immediately. Then if I choose to refresh or send a second tweet/email right after, the transmission arrows dont light up for a while. Its like the radio is going to sleep way too fast and it takes even longer to wake up and complete the transaction. Enabling/disabling fast dormancy doesnt seem to make a difference.
Edit: under these conditions, I never get the "no signal" icon. Just seems the radio is sleepy
Well I asked around because my signal sucks but I called sprint and they said my area has really good service.....but people told me to try FCO4 and FC14 and FCO7 that might help so I did......nothing helped.
I just looked it says I'm using el29 on my kernal and FCO7 under baseband.......not sure if that helps,ill try to find out more and if it helps ill let you know

Having problems with a few apps

I was wondering if anyone has had any problems with Facebook and trying to post something on there page. I was able to comment on someone else post but now I can not I have tried to uninstalling Facebook and reinstalling it but its still the say. I am also having problems with my GPS,and with my screen getting stuck with the image being real lite and faded then I would have to take out battery to restart it. Also my battery has been getting real hot sometimes that I will have to take it out let it cool down for a few mins then restart it this happen a few times a day.. Model number SPH-D710 Android version 4.0.3 Kernel version 3.0.15-SPH-D710,FC06-CL210242
Get off that version. Fc06 was never officially released and had many many problems. If you want ics get fi27 odin one click.
