Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
where can i get the stock odib eb13
There's usually a .tar packed up with odin that is stock ec05 no root.....
The file should read something like "stock-sph-d700-odin.tar" or something along those lines
Do you want root or not because if you do still want it rooted you can just flash chris41g's stock ec05 plus rom through odin..... ill throw a link up in a few just in case......
yes please post a link i tried using samsungs tool but it dosent do crap
This might help
I don't know if you've tried this, but qbking77 has some really good videos on YouTube.
This might help:

Hey guys I'm new to the forum but have lurked for awhile. I have searched for the answer but it is still unclear to me, so I thought I'd ask for yall's help.
Can I go straight from the cm9 alpha rom to the blazer smoothies without bricking my phone?
Or do I need to first return it to the stock el29 kernel first?
What is the easiest method?
I have heard how easy it is to brick your phone when running the cm9 and not really knowing what your doing lol.
Help is appreciated. Thanks

You can Odin the EL26 kernel and flash the ROM, but I'd do what revamper said.

Thanks guys. So if I just flashed the blazer rom before returning to el29 would it brick my phone?
Im confused because when I look at my about phone it says im on the baseband version S710.10 S. EL29 isn't that ok?
I get confused between that and the kernel version.
The baseband is your modem. Those are independent of rom and kernel. Use any modem on any rom/kernel.
I use mobile Odin to go back to gb. Flash el26, immediately boot into recovery. Wipe and flash the rom of your choice. You can also try another modem in the the same flashing session if you'd like.

I have model SPH-D710.
I followed the guide here.
I had no problems whatsoever until the final reboot. Now my phone's stuck at the 2nd loading animation... the one with the android on the skateboard in the middle of the screen with the blue things coming at you.
I can boot into Odin mode. I cannot, however, boot into recovery mode.
Is there anything I can do? Did I totally screw up my phone to where I'm going to just have to buy a new one and cry about it because my dad would have killed me for voiding my warranty on "such an expensive phone?"
Try regular booting again
This happened on my og epic and my nexus s when I install cm9
Just holding the power button to tun off them holding it to turn on helps
Also it takes a while to boot up

I'm going to have to let it charge now... It died sitting on that animation for the last hour.
So... it's still not working
This is what you do
Odin to el29
Get root and recovery (just get cwm nothing fancy like rogue)
Go to recovery
Wipe everything
THen install cm9
You have have flashed from an pics recovery and that doesn't work so use el29
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Don't think it was mentioned but Alpha 5 does not have recovery, this was done to prevent people from doing stupid things like factory resetting or installing roms.
The nightly builds have a safe recovery as well as themselves safe to flash on ICS recoveries if you need to head that direction next. But a replacement for Alpha 5 will be out in eventuality with all that as well.
I got it to work after I flashed back to GB and then back to alpha 5.
No idea what went wrong before, but it works now!
You probably flashed from an ics recovery
For some reason we can't get rom flashing on ics to work
Every one has been using Odin to go to el29 or at least they flashed the kernel with the recovery of el29 them flashed the rom

You can use the EL26 kernel on EL29 some people flash just the EL26 kernel for recovery, other people odin to EL29 and use the auto rooter to flash the EL26 CWM or EL29 Rogue kernel. Last i checked the CM9 brick from flashing with Rogue is a simple soft brick easily fixed with odin.

My friend you may have a little homework to do. Things have improved greatly for us in reference to flashing roms with certain recoveries and kernels for ICS. I for one use the nightlys for CM9 and flashing roms and wiping has been fixed.
Do yourself a favor and stroll through development and read up on the new stuff that has come about over the last couple weeks or so.
Enjoy guys and OP glad you got your phone back up and running. Next time don't panic!

thanks
ooppps what does ota mean im new at this lol so el 29 is the gingerbread which is the 2nd newest from ics eg30 is old then// dont use that right

I SED TO USE ALL CALKULINS ROMS BUR A LITTLE CONFUESED WITH THE DIFF LETTERS NOW
ROM ] Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.6 [ ICS l FE22 l Tweaked l Battery Saver Script
Yes you can do the one click with no issues. As far as the ICS issues, what are you referring to? Been running M'ICS for two weeks and no issues other than the visual issue with long press home to clear running apps.
El29 came after eg30. EL29 is the official GB update. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
All in all, I'm loving ICS. The stock kernel/android recovery has the potential to possibly brick your phone. But they have safe kernels out now. Its all up to you on what you want to do. Just make sure you enjoy your phone.

Wrong one click. Look for sfhub's el29 rooted one click. You wont need to be in recovery for one click, but download mode instead. Need to hold vol down + power. Press up when prompted. Open oneclick on computer, plug in usb, hit start on odin, voila. Back to el29.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
The one click FF18 is the ICS build. If you want GB you need EL29. Wipe cache doesn't unroot. There is a process to unroot or Odin el29 no root. The no data means it won't wipe your data. Be careful it can cause issues. Use a back up app to save your current apps.
In the sticky for this section there is a wiki on rom/kernels/modems. Click on roms. It has the link for el29 full or no data.

WHAT DOES ALL OF THEM MEAN I KNOW FF18 IS ICS WHAT ARE THE OTHER STUFF
FF18! FF02! FE21, FE16, FE14, FE10, FE07, FD24, EL29, EL26, EG30, EK02
those are leaked builds of ICS. From after el29 GB to before FF18 ICS. To back up apps use titanium back up or my back up pro (in the market) OTA = over the air. if you want try another ICS rom. Most are stable. Just one click back to el29 and flash new ICS from there. I trust the devs here. They produce quality work. for you flash agats63 kernel with safe recovery. Then from there you can try the best ICS rom for what you want/need.

dude I'm not trying to be rude but I've seen two of your threads now and you reallly should spend some time reading before messing around with this phone as there is the potential to brick. I have a thread called welcome to the e4gt stickied in general, you may want to start there as it address a lot of the things you've been asking about. Sfhubs posts about his Odin one clicks will also clear a lot up... should you have more questions use the "search this forum" option to look for what it is you need help with, chances are there's already a thread about it..... lastly I wouldn't avoid ff18 just because someone anecdotally told you there are issues with it, with exception of a few very post happy negitive nancys around here the vast majority of us who have been using ff18 or ff18 based builds since the leak well over a month ago have not had issues with it

Hey guys,
I purchased this phone today, went home and immediately rooted the phone.
Everything went fine, until I tried flashing a custom recovery than the problem occurred,
I'm on a FL24 basebad with 4.0.4, and every time my phone boots 10 seconds later it restarts.
What's going on?
I rooted the phone with Odin, once rooted I installed mobile Odin and flashed a customer "Kernel / Recovery" now the phone constantly reboots.
Install the stock kernel.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Well the kernel I flashed was 0.4.0, I heard that one has reboot issues so I flashed 0.3.0 and it's working great.
The only thing I can't figure out now is how to flash CWM, keeps taking me to the download screen when booting into "recovery".

To boot to recovery
Vol up plus power and hold
Once the splash screen shows, release power and continue to hold Vol up.
You will get to recovery.

How come E4GT ROMS are so large in size, back when I had an EVO and Optimus roms were about 100MB, E4GT are about 500mb?
Well sounds like the recovery was either flashed wrong or is defective for whatever reason..
Here is how to root that version by qb77king. He is very good http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gqmKN2ewatk&feature=youtube_gdata_player.....
here is a video for the recovery http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Kb63ldWtnoM&feature=youtube_gdata_player
So I'd like to help but need to know more info to go by. Did you enable USB debugging when you flashed the recovery? Anyways go ahead and go to stockroms.net. there you can find a stock ROM to flash your phone with unless its virgin or boost.
I recommend just getting stock jellybean or wild for the night cyanogen.. I know you just bought it but I can tell you its worth it ICS is horrible,Too many problems. You can actually find a jellybean ROM that is already rooted when u flash it.. Anyways download the android root toolkit from the market... This will save your phone's root

Hey Trytohoaxme. So as of right now there is no cmw for ICS. There is Agat recovery which is based off of cwm that is for either a ICS ROM or jelly bean ROM. I have cmw that is a jingerbread kernal that interfaces with CyanogenMod 10.1 which has 4.2.2 jellybean. If you flash clockworkmod it won't work with a stock rom your phone won't be able to boost up..

Who's conceited?
I'm pretty sure he's just trying to help and avoid misinformation, no need to get offended, bud... And the op stated the issue was already resolved.
He never asked about cwm specifically, just a custom recovery. On TW ICS I've used Agat's, Ruj's, and Slesh's kernels/recoveries without issue. There's really no need for EL26/CWM tar unless you want to play it safe (which i do) going from TW to AOSP or vise versa.
And yes stock TW ROMs are huge. AOSP ROMs end up around 240 megs (give or take) including Gapps.

Well when people like you give incorrect information like you are currently doing, or makes everything more complicated than it should be, again, something you are doing, I will be rude. ICS has had source for a very very long time and has had a CWM for a long time. JB does not. I have been here for a long time and there is a reason I have recognized contributor. I may be rude, but when someone else risks someone's expensive phone, sometimes it takes being rude. If you can't handle it, oh well.
The reason for my response was because the issue was solved and the stockroms.net is not a site that I trust. We have a repository for all of our stock ROMs.

You can flash any ROM for the E4GT... You are in the right forums for that.
Oh okay, I was asking because the thread title of most ROMs say "[ROM] FL24 Kuban Kernal" ETC..
Since I'm on GB24, I can still use EL26 ROMs and all?
