I know this is prolly a dumb question but does anybody know if any of the roms,themes,etc from the international GSII work on our epic 4G touch?
No. They need to be ported for our phone.

Basically all the CDMA and Wimax stuff in our ROM's makes them incompatible.
They will most likely work but alot of things will be broken
Remember zedomaxs og root
It was flashing an international kernel

Any reason to think the Nexus S 4g ROM would work on the epic? Aren't basically the same hardware?

There are still differences between them. NEVER flash a rom from a different phone on the epic.
Not development. Moved to Q&A.

It's not gonna work. That's for the international GSII and is GSM. We need the CDMA version.
i believe that rom is not for our variant of the phone

I would follow this guy:

But don't ask him for an ETA. He'll chew you out...
I've tried Starburst ROM, Criskelo and Lite'ning. They all flash perfectly fine but when my phone boots up I have no service. Any advice? Please help. I'm a noob. By the way I have an SPH-D710 if that helps any.
Try staying on stock and then root with stock kernel
If that works its all good just flash a custom rom on top of that and reflash the rooted stock kernel
If thats a no ho try lost kernel
Also viper rom i think has lost kernel built in

Right now I flashed my phone back to the stock kernel are you saying I should use a different one? Sorry I'm just new to this android game.
Maybe you're doing the same thing I was doing. The Galaxy S2 and Epic 4G Touch are two different phones. The GS2 uses a SIM card, so if you have a GS2 ROM, then you won't have service since it's looking for a SIM card. Check to make sure you're downloading a Epic 4G Touch ROM so that you don't get bricked like I did. -_-
What ROMS can I use for an Epic 4G?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
First you need to make sure you're getting the right Roms for your phone...are you confusing epic 4g with epic 4g touch? Two different phones...

I can say that it probably wouldn't be that fun of an experience... The E4GT doesn't use a boot.img like the Evo does, it has ramdisk and zImage separate. Samsung modems and drivers would take some work. I believe it uses BML and not MTD.
Not saying it is impossible, but at the very least whoever took that up would have a huge challenge.
Saw that the 3D now has a CM9 port with working wimax. As far as I know, they use the same wimax chip. I'm a total newb, and probably know know nothing about how this works, but any chance that might breath new life into the possibility of OG Evo with working wimax on CM9/10?

Bump for support.
jmztaylor is already trying to port wimax since toast and the team released the code. But toast said it might not work on MTD devices
