ACSRecovery was originally based on CWM4 and for the Epic 4G. I updated it to CWM5 source base, and Also ported it to ET4G.
It has menu optimizations to be more efficient
New reboot menu
PreROM wipe that wipes /data and caches
PreTheme wipe that wipes caches
ACS Branding
Various underhood tweaks.
All builds will be here:

Anyone know how to flash this without ODIN? Also can't flash via cwm because of a "signature verification failed" error. I could

What kernel is this based on? I really like your recovery and I was wondering if I needed to flash the EK02 kernel again after updating to your recovery?
Potential mod, version, or port to the OG Epic!?...that new compatable ROM manager version just doesn't stick...I wind up in ACS CWM4 version and have to flash a zip everytime I want to use CWM5...smh

Its stock repacked EF02 with ACS Recovery. You flash this and you're all set unless I am in the wrong thread but I don't think I am. After you flash it, go to settings /about phone and check there

That should work just fine. Just think of the ACS Recovery as a streamlined version of CWM with quicker options to wipe

Any updates made to the recovery? On 1.0.0.0 wipe data does not appear to be working. Also when you backup to internal SD it skips android_secure because it is looking for it on internal SD.

Okay so I watch qbking77 and saw his bid on getting fd26 without rooting (rooted before on NY g2 and hated it so avoided it on my e4gt). Any who I had so many bugs with that and he posted a video bout upgrading to fd26 with root and so I did so. Then I went ahead and tried to flash cwm but I guess it didn't work because I wasn't able to flash the kuban from that I wanted! Can anyone help?! Please

Mobile Odin is your friend and so is kernel EL26 CWM. Make sure you download and install SuperSU from the market first, then Odin yourself to that kernel and from there flash whatever it is you desire, happy flashing
So I download mobile Odin then where do I get the kernel?
Btw thanks so much!

I did what you guys said and now my phone is stuck at the galaxy s 2 logo. HELP
Get into download mode. Reflash el26 with cwm. Of you want an ics kernal with rogue recovery, you need to flash fd02 with cwm. So flash el26 with cwm, turn off the phone and hold power + volume up until Samsung logo comes up then let go, wipe data/ factory reset, wipe cache, wipe dalvik cache, then flash the rom of your choice. After you reboot and confirm that its working, turn it off again. Get into download mode by hold power and volume down. Go to Odin and flash fd02 + cwm kernal ONLY!
Reboot and you should be good.
Note! Fd02 is not 100 percent reliable for flashing anything! However, I have never bricked with it.
Whatever you do, do NOT be impatient.

The mijjz goodness rom it starts like its wrkn then gives me error mesg plus i have yellow triangle when booting
Try this:
Download the rom on ur PC
Download the el26 kernel w safe cwm (tar version, not zip) on ur pc
Place all on ur external SD card
Use Odin to flash el26 (PDA slot)
If you get a pass from Odin, boot your phone into recovery (right away when phone blue light comes on after successful flash via Odin, or pull the battery and boot to recovery manually if u missed)
Wipe data/cache/dalvik
Flash ROM
Reboot....should be good to go.
And the el26 kernel is easy to find by searching the forums.

hi guys,
alright some i'm new to this forum. i wouldnt consider myself that great at rooting and flashing etc but i'm getting the hang of it. been following qbking77 cuz he is like my god lol
anyway, i need to post at least 10 times before i can post on the thread that i wanna post on and i searched a little bit but cant seem to find what i'm looking for. and btw i have an Epic 4g.
ok, so ive noticed everyone saying i have CM10 or 9 and this and that and then they say they are on FC19 or El22 etc. I want to know how do i update/change that stuff, what my options are, and what would those benefits be?
i'm currently running CM10 build 9/14 by nightlies on stock FC09. will be going to the most recent build soon but want to maybe play with the baseband version. thanks guys.
You are correct. It is the baseband aka modem software on your phone. There is a thread in development that allows you to flash with clockwork mod and another thread that has you changing modems with Odin.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda premium
Since you're on CM10, your first stop should be this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=30433583
Should give you better service/speed than any Epic modem.

Ok. I'm a noob. I'm on stock fc09. So if I go to that link what modem would that put me at? And I'm assuming flashing means all you do is go to recovery mode and install zip from sd card, correct?

The modem package includes a modified kernel. You must flash the ROM first, or its included kernel won't recognize the Nexus modem.

I'm pretty sure my baseband said unknown for the first hour or so before it showed the modem version
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda app-developers app
the only way i could get that file to install was if i did it before the CM10 rom. when i do it after it fails. so i wiped cache and dalvik again and just installed CM10 and now i still have unknown baseband version. what do i do? will i have to do a data reset?
Try mounting system and data in recovery.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk 2
i accidently wiped date, then cache, then dalvik, mounted system and then mounted data. flashed CM10 and then tried the modem and it still failed.
nevermind! i accidently mounted sd card instead of system. wiped everything rebooted recovery, mounted system and data and installed both zips. booting up now. taking a while for the animation tho....
So, I flashed CM10 nightly 11/8. Dirty flash over a previous nightly, just cache and dalvik wipe. Now I can't boot to recovery, it just hangs at the cyan boot logo. Was using TWRP and I made sure to click the inject twrp box. Everything else works well and normally, aside from no recovery. I know the correct answer is to odin to stock and start fresh. However, does anybody know of a way to re-flash twrp or clockwork without access to recovery. I would like a quick temp fix for a few days if there is one. Thanks in advance!
Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
U can just use odin to flash cwm. Look for the 5.x version thread for cwm and there's a .tar flashable file somewhere there. Just flash it in odin and you should be good. Since ur already rooted it should stick.

Sent from my SPH-D700 using xda premium
I think there IS (hopefully) a way of flashing MTD recovery without returning to stock. Maybe... grab a recovery.img from the ROM package, put it in SD card, and go to Terminal Emulator on phone. Then...
Command:
su
cd /sdcard
flash_image recovery recovery.img
This works on my good'ol (sold) G1 and Milestone... but don't know if this works on MTD. Anyway, give it a shot

Sooooo, is it worth keeping or should i go through the trouble of installing clockwork.
And if i use Odin lite and flash the gb kernal with clockwork i can them boot into recovery and flash whatever i want?
And one more thing. I have a usb jig coming in the mail. If i am going to be doing all that should i wait till it comes in in case i need it or is it simple enough that i shouldn't worry.

Agat recovery is good for touchwiz based roms. I have flashed many ICS roms and zips using this recovery.
Regarding your questions if you want to flash a new rom follow the instructions in the OP of that rom, don't over complicate things. I use el26 recovery to flash roms. I load that using Odin from PC.
Its good to remember kernel and recovery are combined with this phone. Keep agat. If you want to go to jellybean get el26 kernel by chris41g. Also remember you will have a new kernel and recovery after you flash something.
