[Q] if i root, is there a stock rom?? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

i personally like the stock UI of the E4GT and i want to root it mostly for kernel so i can get better battery life and hotspot

Post of the time, yes. Just keep looking on here(XDA) and it will pop up sooner or later they all do

Yes the hardware could undoubtedly support Gingerbread or even ICS, but who among us can build that kernel from scratch?
I apologize if this has already been discussed in a previous thread but why are we using the Fascinate .pit for EC07?

That's not confusing at all.
I read somewhere, and it turned out to be pretty true, that PITs are actually kinda of a big deal... And for some reason, they don't work properly most of the time... The PIT that i suggest people use is in fact for the Fascinate, but why would that surprise you? The partition layout of the two phones are exactly the same, it's just our phone has the ticker I use that PIT simply for the fact that i know it works, and it doesn't cause problems... And when i tried to use one made specifically for our phone, it didn't work out too well....
So yeah haha

Hmmm...
Wonder if we could take that ROM, change the updater-script to match our mounting points....then we just need a kernel....
Which we have one kernel already made. Not sure if it would work though.
If anyone would help set up a build environment that would work for our kernels and roms then I will gladly help and start learning.

I think we'd need a stock CM9 based kernel though. If I understand correctly.

Well, it shouldn't take too long. It may be possible to build a CM9 Kernel for our phones using parts of the stock kernel that we have access to.
Once the JB source is released, an S3 port might actually be viable. Otherwise it's essentially just flashing a gnex image and praying something/anything works.

a CM9 kernel shouldn't be needed, just a modded kernel for our specific phone from what i believe.
We know this, but it's more of an experiment. Also, it helps work out anything we may need to do early on with the modules and drivers

Why not take this ROM, change the updater-script for our mount points, remove the flashing of the boot.img, flash ROM then flash the kernel Roman release?

It could, in theory. But we would need to work on the modules for anything to work. Could you post our mount points?
why does it have to be a cm9 kernel?
to be completely honest, as soon as we get a cm9 alpha, we will see some worth while stuff! but until then. TouchWiz it iz. We will have team kang's AOKP in no time im sure. i cant wait to see wuts to come. especially since this phone is at all the major carriers and they are all basically exactly the same! should be epic.

yea i think once one of the other major carriers (or ares) get cm9 then we will see some awesome stuff for everyones phone!

Dev Suggestions

Well me and my team our working on our first Custom Rom.... Maybe 2.... We are still confused with which Stock Rom Should we take? DDLA1, DDLF2 or anything else.... Till date we are working with DDLA1 which created problems with our own themed apps.... Please Suggest Which Baseband Stock should we take?

Just my humble opinion and observation,
i think i read in a post somewhere that you want to prove something to avijit? was that you?
Anyway, if you really want to be unique and original, get out of their zone of development,
i think DDLF2 is base for nemesis? and DXLF2 for hyperion?
so why not be unique and try DDLL or DXLL? or maybe even newer like MA, the problem is the la fleur..but its fast i tell you...
its just my opinion though

I didn't understand! Can you just PM me explaining that thing! Would be Great!

Im new and have a few questions!!

First I want to say hello! I just got my sg3 lastnite.. Was with htc for a while and now im done with them! I wanted to kno can we flash that senergy rom for verizon? Also wanted to kno what is the latest firmwear/ radio cause I want to kno if im up to date.. and I thought there was a Ziggy kernel for sprint is that true? I was on his site and coulndt find a download.. Thanks!
If the synergy rom says its multicarrier, then yes you can flash it...otherwise expect some things related to signal to not work. As for the latest baseband, its MB1
You can't flash (and expect a fully working ROM) a Verizon ROM, however I know there is one that is multi-carrier and uses aroma to install the correct version to by our device. It would be wise to read the op, and follow directions. If it doesn't say for sprint then I'd wager its not for ours. Never flash international ROMs.
Never flash international ROMs.
As for Ziggy, no idea.
MB1 I believe is the newest baseband. MB anyway, I'm too lazy to look.
Go to the dev forums and read, read, read. Don't mean that as a smartassed answer. When I get a new device I always spend days/weeks reading different threads. Not just the op but replies as well. XDA has a wealth of knowledge, you have to be willing to be patient and drink it all in.
/sermon
BTW, don't flash international roms .

Edit; was way slow to reply lol
You may want to try different modems. Some work in areas better than others. For example, for me MA works better than MB does. Was like that with my S2.
Best to keep them on your SD card and try them all with Speed Test from the market.
Others a thread in development with the different modems.

Here is where Ziggy's kernel is. Great kernel developer.
I'd give h a shot but I'm too happy with the kernel I have. I seem to remember the name. Maybe from evo 3D? Was Viper using his kernels? Been awhile since I had that god awful device active. Donated it to a dev that skipped out after getting it. Have another with a bad digitizer sitting on a shelf. Can't believe I swapped a Nexus S for that thing.
Hey guys im getting a samsung softwear update and its 81.5 mb.. Do i not download it.. Will it mess root up??
If you have custom recovery it will just fail on install. Shouldn't hurt anything.

Well, here's SYNERGY. Floating Multi WIndow
http://downloadandroidrom.com/file/GalaxyS3Verizon/roms/Synergy/Synergy-S3_30Mar13_0726_r443_s.zip

What ROM /kernel are you using ?

Since I like customization I like to flash custom os, right now I have pretty bad batterylife.
What ROM/kernel are you using ? I know batterylife differs from person but like to flash a ROM with good performance and batterylife.
Atm with bootleggers and elementax
Cheers guys!
Hi Krabban !
I'm using it as stock android 10, I think the battery life used to be good on Beta Q6. now with October's update it is not like it used to be -using the same apps- but good enough to complete my day with 4G on and communication apps and 2h of playing hard games.
how is it with u using different kernel ? 'cause im thinking to re-flash it and root in order to use a custom kernel.
Just Flashed havoc with built in kernel illusion . Gonna test for a couple of days. Need edge gesture since it's really handy to change music in Spotify while driving car
I'm looking for a custom based on android 10 but too early to find any

That AOSiP one is the same one slothdabski posted here https://forum.xda-developers.com/pixel-3-xl/development/official-aosip-9-0-t3894660/page94. Install instructions are on the previous page, but read the rest of the thread after. The build was completely generic and multiple apps would not even be send root permission requests so didn't work (AdAway and TiBu for starters). It was definitely not ready for prime time, and that beast10 one was from the same day. I wouldn't be really hopeful. It is interesting using fastboot/fastbootd to install though.
