That is only kernel source, not a full tar release. The closest you can get is the nandroid dump. Restore that, root, flash an EXT4 kernel.

Why don't you Odin to EC05 stock, accept the OTA, then follow the steps on rooting it which includes flashing an EXT4 kernel?
---------- Post added at 09:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:54 AM ----------
Here is supposed to be a clean GB. You will probably still need to flash an EXT4 compatible kernel, and may have to run RFS2EXT4 if you are set on EXT4. It also helps you set up to use Heimdall instead of Odin.

I noticed stock, unrooted ie22 gb runs almost flawless. Best battery life and multitasks better. No weird reboots or odd bugs. Sms all come in. No odd audio bugs. Just works better imo. Not as fast as the costume roms but alot more reliable.

How is the ROM you are running now? If you are seeing some wierd things at 1400 Mhz, you may want to try toning it down to 1200.
I have one of the first deodexed ROMs released that I believe only has the gps fix in it if you want that. Let me know and I will put it in my dropbox and send you a link.

I have that one too. Noobl has a point with the gps being fine. With the fix everyone is doing to get 9 sat locks is over kill and does drain battery if you leave it on all the time. with out the gps fix I get better battery life and locks as fast and as accurate. And that's from my own personal observation.
But I'm running acs v5 with sumarai colonel at 1.49 ghz. Runs almost perfect boot will reboot at least one time daily at those speeds. If I leave out at 1ghz, the reboots does NOT go away. Still get it. But 1 reboot ain't bad. I think its red headed step child gingerbread running out of ram.

I'm running stock deodex with samurai kernel at 1.44. was doing 1.49 but noticed irregularities. Nothing that caused issues but it liked 1.44 better. You may want to try this setup.

Your phone will kill itself above 1.2... you will get to the point that you will get reboots even on stock at 1.0 ghz from abusing the processor previously. This is why I never overclock at all. I never have issues on any rom with reboots.

I am glad im not the only one. I have tried ACS v5, and Legendary Rom with both the nuberal and samurai kernels and still get random reboots. I have tried running it overclocked at 1.1 ghz, 1.2ghz, 1.3ghz, 1.4ghz, same results. All overclocked speeds last the same amount of time before I get a random reboot.
All the custom roms are very, very similar in terms of bugs and random reboots.
I am trying starskyRom at the moment, and so far, its flawless...well...flawless when the phone is on. The only bug I can report is my battery screen does not show up when I try to charge the phone when the power is off. Nothing very big, but still annoying knowing there is always something. In the end im willing to take it in the nuts a few times to get a good final product in the end. Lots of good developers around here, and they do great work.
Stock ei22 would be a very, VERY stable rom if they would just fix the damn GPS, Keyboard Lag, and Screen Rotation lag.
Given time all these roms will become perfect, but until then, we are just BETA testers.

Not RAM. It was proven on the leaks that it was voltage and speed causing the reboots. We fixed it with Tegrak and SetCPU combo. RAM does not leak out. Lots of apps suck it dry and the stock task manager sucks and does not see a LOT of apps that are stealing RAM. Have not seen anyone mention a reboot on Legendary. As for the GPS with the fix I never lose lock, without the fix I lose lock every 15 minutes on a trip and would occasionally require a reboot to get it back...not the best situation when driving. Give me 9 out of 9 locks any day and a car charger and I am good to go.

You are the first one I have seen to get a reboot on Legendary. Have you tried just 1000 mhz? My phone is soooo fast on Legendary at stock speed there is no reason to OC and stress my CPU.

Yup, typical response. Every device behaves different with these mods. I find stock ie22 to be the best stable room. Once you go deodex, you remove stability for some reason. That's from my observation of being a addicted flashing crack hor.

What Marcusant is saying is the damage is not immediate and may be cumulative over time. Have you gotten reboots on a deodexed ROM running at 1000 Mhz max?

Well, every ROM runs a little different on each of our Epics. If you want a good Gingerbread leak ROM, use one that has either Deca's or Crawrj's newly DeOdexed stock ROM as its base. Be kind guys, he only has 19 posts.

Just remember that EVERY phone is different so asking "what is the best ROM" is relative only to that user's experience. Some phones seem to not like custom ROMs at all and sometimes it is the user and then they complain about their problems. The easy answer is read up on the positives and negatives of a few and try one. The best thing is that there is tons of good people here willing to help if you run into trouble or a few Force Closes.

Good suggestions but just to clarify, you can't use TheImpaler's keyboard patch on Gingerbread ROMs like Random Hawk. The keyboard fix will come when the official comes out and we get source. Most of the Froyo EC05 ROMs have it baked in though

AHH forgot about that. thanks a lot for that clarification. At least from that provided link, OP can install the speed demon one because from what i remember, EC05 ROMs come with the default keyboard patch in them. At least it'll help him out in that sense? As far as the rotation lag fix goes, i know that Random Hawk has it already, but for some people it doesn't work, same with ERA's rom.
I really like the RandomKing HAWK so far.
I am pretty new to ROMS and really like this one.. not close to the highest quadrant scores, but feels the fastest and most stable to me.
I have ran EB13 VIPER 5.0, EC05 ACS Frozen 1.2 and now the RandomKing HAWK v.2.
Right now I have RandomKing with his included Chris14g kernel, EG22 modem, Supercharged v6 script, option 9, CPU is overclocked to 1.2Ghz, journaling is turned off.
Only had it a couple days, so we will see.

I have to agree with you there. If Quadrant benchmarks are your thing, Urban Decay flies.I get 3200+ marks at 1.2 with Tegrak. On Froyo..what Zander said. ERA ReVolt Revolution yields the highest Smartbench scores on a consistent basis. Its the only ROM other than Urban Regen that gives me 1600+ CPU marks and it does almost every time. It is fast!

ROM Ho
Once I started flashing I just couldn't stop...I did learn that after 20 flashes, the Amazon App Market stops letting you log in because each time you flash it captures it as a new device in your profile. To fix that just log into Amazon and delete the old/invalid entries.
Here are the ROMS I have had the privilege to try:
SyndicateROM Frozen 1.1
Urban Regeneration
Swiss Cheese Samsprint
EF02 Leak (stockish)
EG22 Leak (stockish)
Urban Inception
midNIGHT ROM
ACS Go Green
ERA Olympus (artist formermly know as Unamed)
ERA EpicuReAn SCrAMbLED EGgs22
RandomROM Hawk v2
Many people have already stated this, but it is really about personal preference as far as what will work best for you. There have been some ROMS that just did not play nice with my phone, but I am sure this is a phone by phone thing as well. My favorites by far are CK's Urban series and the RandomROM Hawk. I have ran with Hawk the longest (previously Osprey) and I have loved it. Although, I still miss my sexy Urban ROM at times. What it boiled down to for me was saving battery and RandomROM excels at this. Being unable to post on the development board, I do want to thank all of the devs who invest their personal time (especially those that don't even own an Epic anymore or work for the competition) to make our phones kick a$$. Thank You All!

[Q] Best kernel and rom combination for battery life?

So I decided to go back to an Epic instead of an Evo. I had the Epic when it first came out up until around January. Last things I remember from the Epic development scene was Herver and his Baked Snack Roms and Kernels. (what ever happened to him anyways?) I am obviously in no way familiar with the current crop of roms and kernels and would appreciate suggestions on where to start and I'll test combos to see what works best for me. Froyo and Gingerbread based Roms please.

I too am looking for the best battery life and I'm having trouble getting it. Currently trying out latest random rom for EC05 and its decent but nothing amazing, I've also loaded the super V6 memory script and the battery just doesn't hold up very well. Where can I get the old baked snack roms?
Sorry to let you guys down, but I can't seem to find the files for baked snack. I'll keep looking though.
i had excellent battery life on the bonsai rom and kernel
Rebirth + Genocide, 38 hrs. moderate use........
Syndicate frozen 1.2 and genocide 2.0 give me the best battery and stability so far, but random rom is a very close second, and then probably viper synergy 5.0. The gb leaks were good with battery too, but I had too many fc issues with them. I would love to try this baked snack I keep reading about though. I've seen a lot of random posts here and there mentioning it, and always boasting about the battery life on it. A pm with any info on its whereabouts would be greatly appreciated. Then again, syndicate 1.3 seems to be just around the corner too, so I'm really interested to see what's in store with that as well.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
I am hooked on random rom hawk, battery life is amazing. It usually only drops about 1-2% an hour for me sitting idle. I have heard urban warfare is very good on battery life as well. Gingerbread leak roms are still pretty unstable at this point though. Only try them if you have a good backup procedure down, and are prepared to get hit with force closes and random reboots at any given time. If you need the stability, stick with EC05 roms.

I've tried several roms froyo and gb and the best battery and performance I seen was with randomroms 2.3. Rom but the random reboots kept pissing me off so I wentt to pheonix and its been pretty good I hadbetter battery life with hawk but this is better for now.
I also would like to try backed snack so if anyone has the url t the rom or anything can you please let me know

Root

Is it even worth rooting right now with Los and all?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I'd say it depends on how much you value the things root can bring. I'm personally holding off for now, as the stock kernel runs pretty well and I haven't had a single LOS issue. I'd be kicking myself if I rooted my phone and started having LOS, so I'll hold off until LOS is squashed entirely (if that's even possible) or there's a more compelling reason to root.
Root can be had with stock kernel so if you aren't getting Los now no reason to fear it
Sent from my Samsung Galaxy S2
Considering that rooting doesn't cause LOS and with this kernel it can actually [almost completely] eliminate LOS.....yes?
Well if Samsung/ Sprint fix the Los, I guarantee almost all roms will incorporate it. And the is chris's kernal that gets rid of the Los a lot. Also the roms make it fast, so why not root?
I waited about a week before I rooted mine then rooted and flashed Chris's kernel right away and I'm golden. I couldn't stand not being able to freeze/remove bloatware or flash other roms. Me likes to tinker.
All depend what u want out of it. Maybe u dont even have to rooted lol. My signal is good no problem with los.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
I'm rooted and running LoSKernel. It's very stable for me, and I haven't had LoS aside from a brief moment running old starburst and an old kernel. It seems this problem is being dealt with quite well
I had no LOS completely stock, when I went to starburst 1.5 with zedomax (v3 and 4) I got LOS. So I dumped zedomax, and I went with the latest LoSt kernel with starburst 1.6... well 1.7 now, and I haven't had a single LoS since in 4 days. and I'm getting 4500 quadrant scores @ 1.6 using setcpu. Not to mention I get up at 10 am, go to work til 3, and with moderate use my phone is still above 75% when I get home. Pretty happy right now, it would take something pretty spectacular to get me to move away from this combo.
I'm also on 1.7 With lostkernal no Los. Stock I didn't get it until I was roaming
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
You are confused. Root is simply using an exploit allow you to modify protected files. Changing kernels is what can increase/decrease LoS. Root can be had with the stock kernel.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Like all the posts said there isn't any reason to be worried about LOS. Use lost kernal which improves performance with starburt 1.7 which also speeds the phone up ansd some how makes it smoother scroling ( wasn't sure that was possible but it is ) and will wont ever look back. Believe me you wont and I also suggest going into the themes section and checking out HoneyGlow v2. Its simply amaxing but there are others that are compatible also. The one I can hardly wait to have a compatible version is Overstews OBSIDIANRED theme. Its too notch. Evec if you don't like red ( as I once didn't ) with this screen you will love it I imagine

So I dumped zedomax, and I went with the latest LoSt kernel with starburst 1.6... well 1.7 now, and I haven't had a single LoS since in 4 days. and I'm getting 4500 quadrant scores @ 1.6 using setcpu. Not to mention I get up at 10 am, go to work til 3, and with moderate use my phone is still above 75% when I get home. Pretty happy right now, it would take something pretty spectacular to get me to move away from this combo.

[Q] 10 Lock Mod Leak Problems, Kernel Perhaps???

I have read a few posts...some having memory leak problems..others are not..one solution i saw was kernel related. I really love the shake and bake theme but moved to mim black out theme e122 because of random reboots. I was also running the samurai kernel. Those of you who are not having reboot memory leak problems..are you guys running the shadow kernel or maybe the latest updated samurai!??? Thanks in advance...

I would LOVE too see this get figured out. I had some reboots on the mod myself, but none the last couple days I ran it. I didn't have any in the 2 days while testing the version of my theme without it. In that time my battery never got low, and I did a few flashes fixing things so it was hard to measure.
Running 2 phones side by side for several days with shadow 1.0.1 and the same EI22 rom, one with 10 lock mod, the other without. I pulled several random reboots on the lockmod phone. I switched the other phone to no lockmod and it has been reboot free for 3-4 days now. The original phone without lockmod is 6+ days reboot and lag free. Ram has not dropped below 75 free, usually hangs around 110-115 free, and recovers to 130 free at times. Running no task killers and not manually clearing ram.

I'd say it's confirmed that the lockmod is causing the reboots somewhere. I haven't had a single reboot on stock OC/UV while running no lockmod, but I had multiple a day while running the lockmod.
Myth Confirmed!
The lockmod "may" be a factor in the equation but I gaurantee you it's not the only one. I run ICS 2.1 Lockmod and have been using the Shadow Kernel since it's release and have had no reboots and my ram is almost "always" between 100 and 150 free. Before even flashing a lockmod theme I had reboots on Samurai Kernel and low free ram. If it works fine for me without those issues then there is another variable in the equation that I'm not using that everyone else having issues is. That's common sense if you've studied anything in technology, mathematics, or science.

Cool..ill take this into consideration and run my own tests which will not be as extensive as you guys but info is info none the less lol. Thanks...and happy flashing!!

Agreed. Of course there are other variables that will cause reboots. I was just posting results from one recent test on a specific setup. Different roms, mods, kernels, usage, etc, can cause their own issues.

I think it's something in particular in conjunction with the lockmod causing massive ram leaks. Not "just" the lockmod itself. If it was "only" the lockmod not a single person using it would "not" suffer ram leaks and "not" get reboots. Though "many" do I do not, and know of quite a few others using themes with lockmods who also do not.

The only thing I've changed is going from lockmod theme to no lockmod theme. I'll see how it does over the next few days.

I have recently reduced my ram leakage to null by various ram tweaks, shadow kernel, and a removal of the 10-lock mod . That said, if you push your phone hard enough, it is still possible to re-enact the reboots just the same.
Basically, your phone can, and sometimes does hemorrhage ram. But when configured properly, it can recoup that ram harmlessly without your noticing. However, the 10-lock mod is a fairly integrated mod. Even the 8-lock mod is similarly integrated. With that in mind, the mod merely "enhances" the leakage to a point where it can no longer successfully be recouped over time. Once ram dips below a particular threshold, the phone is forced to soft-reboot itself in an effort to prevent a crash.
The glitch is most certainly in the kernel. Some suspect that it is in the wifi driver. Research is under way.
Simply put, it's like this:
Your phone is a boat and the kernel is a small hole in the floor.
Normally, a midget is there to help you bail out the boat so it doesn't sink.
When you add in the 10-lock mod, you drop a fat guy on top of your midget.
Now your boat sinks too fast to bail it out.

Actually I did read what you said. I was just making a comment that I was going to see how it goes for me over the next few days with the one change in my set up.
I just had a soft reboot, so time to change something else.

My personal experience. I run CleanGB ROM which has the RFS file system, not Ext4. I've tried all the themes with lockmod and without on the ROM with NO issues. One day I decided to go to EXT4 and bam: reboots and heavy memory loss. Converted back to RFS and magically, all issues went away. I have tried Shadow, and all Samurai kernels with no issues. I don't know enough about this stuff to guess why the lockmod doesn't play nice on EXT4, but that is my experience.

1.7 seems right on the edge... mine will run there for a little while; sometimes even long enough to get through the benchmark but it's never long before it hangs and/or reboots itself.
(Running calk 2.8.1, 75mv UV, w/ gunslinger kernel and overstew ICS btw; been considering trying OC w/ less uv to see if its more stable but since I'm usually uc'd for daily use haven't bothered yet.)

I have the voltage set at 1475mV for 1704mHz on setcpu and put min and max at 1704 performance. I can run it all day no freezing but I usually run it at 200/800

I think that is pretty standard... I can run at 1704 and get through about half of my benchmarks
