Any help would be awesome. Thanks!
Anyone? Please...
not sure what you are asking..
If you are rooted already, just install a rom that is EK02
If you are not rooted, just root as you normally would, then install a EK02 Rom..
Korey, I think you would Odin a kernel with recovery and flash superuser.zip.

Oh crap, my fault...forgot the Mac part. Did you try Heimdall? I have read posts that its working for others but I have never used it
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I assume you can get CWM onto your phone using your Mac. If so then just follow steps 3&4 of this post
3) Use CWM to install calkulin/chris41g's [STOCK] EK02 ROM (rooted) + EK02 Kernel (CWM5 repack)
4) OPTIONAL - Flash EK02 Modem
- This only works if you currently have EG30 modem - ie don't do this if you have EG12 or EG31 modems
- You can tell what modem you have by going to menu->settings->about phone->baseband version
- Once you go to EK02, you can only go back to EG31 or EG12. You CANNOT go back to EG30
- Use CWM to flash EK02 modem from qbking77's [Modem] EK02, EG31, EG12

Do you know how to root the phone using a mac? If not heimdall does work. You need to be comfortable using terminal and it's very easy once you know what you are doing. I rooted my phone using Max's kernel v3 with CWM. It's a thread for it in the development section.

after watching the vid it is really tempting to try this EL13. I don't really have any issue with EK02 though. Has anyone went to EL13 and back to EK02 or do you have to go back to EG30 then EK02?

I did, but I only did it to make sure I could. lol. Basically if you flash to EL13 and you don't like it, flash back to EG30 and then flash to EK02. I did this all in CWM/Rogue Recovery. No need for odin.
Oh and btw, I didn't lose any data by flashing from 1 modem to another and back to another.
Just so everyone knows, it is hard to compare speed tests unless they are done simultaneously, it depends a lot on network congestion.

Even side-by-side phones can be connected to different towers or using different EV channels. You would need to monitor that info in ##DEBUG#.
So is it now confirmed that only the version that you need to enter the password for locks the Odin counter reset? Sorry, just woke up. Stayed up too late messing with my NS4G

If you flash the full tar, it changes the bootloader and breaks jig. CWM flash is fine. It is easy to reflash the old bootloader back though.

No, since there was no OTA you must use odin, or have clockworkmod to install.

Yes, go to the development thread. Both EK02 and EL29 were officially released so both are full modems you can flash through either odin or cwm.

To be more accurate, both were "unofficially" released, so we have the full modems which can be flashed in odin or cwm. When they are "officially" released as OTA updates, we usually only get the patch modems, which won't work in ODIN.
There are links to all the modems (flashable in CWM) in my signature. You need to have a kernel EK02 or newer to flash full modems in CWM else it will hang. If you need an ODIN flashable modem, they are in the 2nd post of each of the respective ODIN links in my signature.
So I should just find a tar and pit for one of those and flash that through odin ? I heard that with eg31 you are unable to change it by flashing through odin and that an ota update was the,only way to really get it off

If you look at the 2nd post of all the ODIN links in my signature, it will have a link for the ODIN download and the individual tar files for modem, kernel, and ROM. In your case, if you just want the modem, just download the modem. The way I set it up, you ALWAYS use the PDA button for all the downloads. Don't use any other button in ODIN.
What you are reading with EG31 is old information. When EG31 first came out, we didn't have any FULL modems from Samsung/Sprint, so that's why once you had EG31, you couldn't go to any other version, not because you were prevented from doing so, but rather we didn't have any other modems available to flash in ODIN.
Now that we have all the modems, you can go to any modem you want in ODIN. In CWM you can do it also as long as your kernel is EK02 or newer.
Thank you very much that made my day

thanks guys it worked i went with the ek02 nodata mobile odin , it was a little scary cause it hung up on the modem.bin for about 2 minutes but sure enough all went well , thanks guys !
PLEASE UNDERSTAND, THESE ARE NOT OFFICIAL BUILDS FOR A REASON, THERE WILL BE BUGS, SO DON'T WHINE IF YOU FIND ONE, FIND A FIX INSTEAD
Here are the complete tars for the FB15 & FB17 builds. Since FB17 didn't include a modem, I included the FB15 modem.
Special congrats to the ACS team for the FB17 build(& FB09) and to my anonymous source for the FB15 build.
Also side note - If you having issues with drivers, uninstalling and reinstalling the drivers worked for me
Extract tar first, then flash tar file through the PDA option in Odin
D710_CODE_SPH-D710.FB17_CL159611_REV02_user.tar.7z
D710_CODE_SPH-D710.FB15_CL143880_REV02_user.tar.7z
E4GT_Sbl_EG31.tar - Flash afterwards to allow reset jigs to work - Flash through the PDA option in Odin
And for those that just want the modem, here it is
E4GT_Modem_FB15.zip \ E4GT_Modem_FB15.tar - Zip must be flashed through a CWM based recovery & Tar must be flashed through the PHONE option in Odin
FAQ
If your having issues with Odin recognizing the phone after flashing this, use these instructions
Go to device manager, right click on the unknown device, update driver, click browse, let me pick from a list, select all(wait till it loads), find Samsung Co and install one of the ones that have modem in the name

If you flashed the unrooted stock FB27 tar before Calkulin's CWM zip, then you can use these instructions to root it.
Another reason why you may want to flash the unrooted stock FB27 via Odin instead of Calkulin's is because it preserves your current data!
To get root:
Follow instructions 1 through 3 from here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1505792
After performing step 3, shut your phone off by pulling the battery out.
Get into Odin mode and flash the following tar:

The CWM that was referenced in the other post did not have a shutdown option, only reboot. So to shut it down I had to pull the battery out. If you use CWM that has the shutdown option then you can just use that

But doing that also reset your data, right?
This is mostly for people who already flashed the stock before Calk released his pre-rooted version. This also does not give you the yellow triangle
Reboots usually about 10+ times a day. During calls etc. Any way to remedy this?
Note: it doesn't restart from the very beginning it freezes, goes black then boots up the lock screen all media connects are restarted etc.
From the limited amount of research I've done the zedomax method for rooted is no longer used? (Currently I get the yellow exclamation point at reboot).
What do I need to do (in lame mans terms) to get my phone back to normal?
TIA!
Easiest way is to one click Odin. I'm not sure which your on. I'm assuming GB. So you can one click Odin to stock el29+ root. Or if you want one click Odin to FF18 or FH13 to upgrade to ICS. And if your on ICS you can use triangle away to get rid of yellow triangle on the splash screen.

Using ZedoMax kernel is your problem from the get go. Even Zedomax would have a good laugh at that. Its an OLD OLD kernel.
EG30 and EK02 can be rooted via usb with the zerg exploit and sfhubs auto root made that easy. Easiest way with EL29 or the newer ICS firmwares as well is just to flash a prerooted one click. But you can always odin a kernel with custom recovery and flash super user.

Use Heimdall to flash tars then. Grab the one for FH13 if you want the latest official ICS or EL29 if you want the last GB out. Sfhubs one click threads have a second post with the tars as for FH13 dunno how Garwynn and rwilco have their stuff arranged.
