Ive tried 3 times to switch to mtd heres my steps I must be doing something wrong please point it out for me.
Step 1: odin to deodexed/rooted ec05
Step 2: eco5 modem to ei22 converted
step 3: upgrade to newest cwm5
step 4: Wipe data/cache/delvik 3x
step 5: Install MTD Clean rom/ Also tried CM7
Outcome: first seems fine restarts back to cwm5 Im assuming that means its converted to mtd? (should i reflash rom after restart to cwm5?) Then I reboot system and the screen just stays black nothing happens waited forever forceing me to odin again and repeat the steps with no luck over and over again. I have also tried installing clean rom + a different MTD Kernal. Still just a black screen buttons lit up and no sign of life I waited nearly half an hour leaving the phone like this and nothing happened.
Odin is a pain it takes 5 failured to reodin I figured id ask the pros since i want MTD and need to figure this out. Please tell me im missing something obvious and make it a simple solution lol Thanks for your help.
When you flash an MTD ROM, the phone will restart during the flash and should reboot and continue to install. Once that is done it should say install successful in CWM. Is it doing that?
I install in cwm5 it shuts off reboots back to cwm5 and thats it at that point i find myself lost and reboot to system and get black screen. Do my steps look right nothing special i have read all comments and see no issues so i feel pretty slow because i never have these problems and couldnt find a similar one.
If it helps me explain better when i installed CM7 I got as far as the CM7 loading screen and then it froze. So I tried to wipe then install clean MTD to see if it would load either and got black screen right after CM7 logo......Ill try again in a minute I just want someones help first before I try again. Then i will post new info about my issue if it continues and we can figure out what im missing.
When you odin you says it fails? You need a better cable also you converted to mtd but it won't boot so when you go back to stock you need to repartition so have that checked. Also don't go back to stock rooted go back to official stock ec05 not anything but that please. Then once done flash in a custom recovery and flash the ei22 modem conversion and finally wipe data cache and dalvik *once* and flash the mtd rom. Then it will reboot almost half way through and then it should say install complete and it will reboot your system.

Ok im going again to try after reading your post ill edit this reply with my outcome after my attemp Im using my 4g for internet so it will take a few minutes to get back here to respond.
Ok ive tried it all nothing helps reflashed on MTD even still boots back to cw5.
I did however download from the xda app I seen some threads on this. Is it possible thats the reason? I usually download roms from it and they work fine but my 16gb is running low. Im going to try again from a laptop download then transfew to microsd on sd adapter and see. I tried it all how do i check md5?
Also i was trying to flash cm710 so im not sure if that has a issue but ill try not downloading from XDA app because im really tired of starting from scratch with this phone. sm7 i see boot logo and resets to cwm5 Clean MTD i see only black screen and it resets to cwm5.
I had to do a factory data reset right before flashing CM7 otherwise I also got stuck at the circle load thingie.

Well I never solved the issues with mtd cm7 and clean rom..... But I did manage to get to MTD very easily using marcusant v3 rom then added red theme and all is well. So in short who knows what was up after trying everything but if anyone else has that issue.....give up lol I needed a lot of asprin getting through tht mess. marcusant v3 MTD is amazing with red theme its boss.
edit: Dont give up lol use dolphin browser and redownload worked like a charm I dont want to discourage anyone as I like to try every rom atleast once. Plus clean GB has stable wifi hack with 4g on.

It was probably some bad downloads. If you want to try CM7 I only was able to get it to flash with a Factory Data reset prior to flashing it. You should grab one of the nightlies from 10 and up with the working 4G toggle.
Well i was dedicated to resolving this after realizing sleeperrom mtd and Marcusant MTD had broken wifi when 4g was enabled. So yeah i resolved the issue by downloading with dolphin browser mini worked like a charm for some reason that browser is the only reliable one for me to download roms. Switched to clean gb 4g wifi hotspot is perfect. Also if anyone knows if hotspot with 4g is broken in cm7 mtd what tether app with 4g tether will work with an epic?

Working copy of wireless tether for cm7 > http://db.tt/Q6n9nOge
Open and before you start the tether change the first two settings... 1. Change to epic 4g... 2. Change to softap... I use this on EVERY ROM I run... turn on 4g after the app starts up...

Every non-Aosp rom I've ever flashed (Acs, bonsai, midnight, simply aosp, viper, et..) have always ended up freezing and forcing me to remove the battery to re-boot, I've followed instructions, re-downloaded the roms etc. CM7 and MIUI, both Aosp, have never had that problem, always flashed right the first time, never had to flash twice. I guess I'm just curious if anyone can explain why aosp roms work fine (minus mms, 4g, and the other aosp bugs) and every rom based off of official releases always seem to end up failing?
Sent from my Samsung-SPH-D700 using XDA App
wrong section man, this is not development (it will be moved soon).
If you are following instructions to the point in ROM guides, I have no idea. Sorry. But more specifics on your problems would help us help you
Its because most of the non aosp roms are backing up and restoring your data. If your coming from a clean flash you have to flash the rom twice before it will boot up properly.
And yes this belongs in the q&a forum

Haha you're not the only one! On DK28 I had to flash twice everytime! And then for a little while on EB13. I don't know what changed though. But I havent had to do it for a longtime. Maybe it's because I never boot into stock before flashing?
It mainly jas to do with us having a crappy recovery.

I experience this to an extent as well.. w/ SRF 1.0.2 it flashes first time and works flawlessly..
What I've found is that all devices aren't created equal. Some work really well others are finicky.
What I've found that works for me is immediately after a flash, I can tell if it's gonna be wonky or work. After the flash, if it 'delays' before popping back up to the recovery menu, it's gonna fail. If the recovery menu pops up right away I'm good.
When it 'fails'.. I'll reboot system.. on the white samsung screen, pull the battery. boot back into recovery, then re-flash. boot system if it doesn't auto boot and you're good.
Not sure why it's like this, but it works for me. MY device doesn't always play nice w/ every version of every ROM and rather than whining in all of the ROM threads about why the rom sucks and I can't use it.. I've figured out a way to use them through troubleshooting and process of elimination using some of the 'fixes' that are posted in the different threads.
all Epics are not created equal. Just gotta figure out what works for yours.
EDIT: now that I think about it, (not that it's a big deal) I'm gonna go find noobnl's thread about checking for bad blocks on the ONEnand... just curious if journaling is trashing my NAND (I don't think it is, but ya never know)
EDIT: Still only 3 bad blocks. Nothing to worry about for me

That's not true. He mentioned Simply which I know for a fact doesn't backup/restore data.
1.) Odin back to EC05
2.) Re-root and Install CWM3
3.) Let it convert you to EXT4
4.) Upgrade to CWM 3.0.2.5
5.) Wipe data.
6.) Go to Advanced/Mounts and hit Format /system
7.) Flash the rom of your choice
8.) If it fails again wipe data x3 and then system x3 for good measure, try try again.
Hope that helps.
Pst make sure to use the proper section next time
Still not sure why this is in development.

Glad you got it working.
I've got an issue where all four capacitive buttons will not work in portrait mode but will work in landscape mode with the keyboard out. I've found some people had issues when they first got their phones but I've had mine for about 14 months and this just started happening. I'm on RandomRom right now with a fresh flash but I had this same Rom before I re-flashed and didn't have the issue. Also, the capacitive buttons used to work in CWM but they don't anymore. I'm going to try the new RandomRom later this weekend but I was curious if anyone else had this issue? I'm leaning towards a hardware problem even though it does work with the keyboard out but also the software has essentially remained unchanged so I'm lost.

I recommmend doing a clean install of whatever rom you want to use. An updated kernel should be included with the rom. Wiping 3 times is not neccessary as that was a bug with old cwm (3.x.x.x) 1 time is enough now. If the problem persits after a clean install download the newest samurai kernel. If that doesn't work try the newest shadow kernel (you can try shadow first if you would rather that kernel). Shadow is now on 1.0.4....

Okay I tried the CleanGB, with the stock kernel and Shadow kernel, and neither of those worked either! Does anyone know of a decent ROM to Odin? I don't want to download the stock from the Samsung website and have to re-root. Or, does anyone know of a gesture application that has "back" and "home" that can be mapped?
Besides "odin", u really got me there. If. U repartition...as much as u don't want to..it will completely reset everything. I would have to say, its better than continuining the guesing game...u know? That's my advice though.

I've tried enabling the bluetooth both thru the pull down button and through the settings menu. It acts like it's starting to turn on, and then after a few seconds, just goes dark again.
Tried reboot. No luck.
Used ACS Recovery to do a pre-ROM wipe before flashing the new ROM.
Can't post in developers forum yet, so hopefully someone here can help. I read every page and every entry in the applicable forum for the ROM I flashed, but no one reported this problem or solutions.
Any ideas? I'd rather not have to flashback to stock or whatever. I've seen plenty of helpful posts for other bugs in the ROM. Just nothing for this. HELP!

BRICKED
Thank u all for the replies. I DID use ACS to do the pre-rom wipe, but I thought CWM got changed afterwards, somewhere in the process of flashing the new ROM, etc. Funny that several of you mentioned the possibility of that being the issue. I went to boot into recovery to check, and my phone bricked. #*(#@$%&. So, I had to odin back to stock and then root again, then use Titaniun just to get to my pre-ROM settings. I'm just gonna go without the custom ROM for now.

You mean sponged, not bricked. As long as there is life you are not bricked. Just grab the official CWM 5.027 and flash that. When doing conversions like that don't use ROM Manager and all should be well. When in doubt, wipe wipe wipe.
Has anyone been experiencing random reboots and when I go to some apps the screen is just blank or black.. Also I'm losing 3g and 4g connectivity.. Any solutions? :banghead:

I'd almost say it's bad flash/download and use of wifi hotspot hack.

Can you give a little more information about your situation please? Did you update from an earlier version recently? Did you flash the full ROM over another ROM? Did you make sure to wipe the phone before flashing?
The more we know can possibly help lead to a quicker resolution.
dont really know to much about this stuff im a newbie by i follow directions to the T.. I installed to sd card rebooted in custom recovery and did a calks wipe and installed... Also i made sure it was on a gb rom before anything... 3.2.6 to be exact.. So did i do something wrong or am i missing something...? Open to any opinions... I really wanna learn how to navigate through these processes..

You don't have to be on a GB ROM to flash it, just need GB recovery or one of the format files (Calkulin or Rujelus) to flash for wipe before installing the ROM.
Did you have custom recovery installed?
Did you make sure to grab the full ROM and not just the update?
Did you download directly to your phone or to the computer? If you downloaded to phone then I'd suggest download again but to the computer and then copy to your sd card. Don't re-use the download you already tried to flash, it may have been borked in the downloading process.
(also, GB is 2.3.6, Honeycomb is 3.x)

I would make a backup with CWM and then do a full clean install and see if that helps. If it doesn't help you can always revert back to your backup.
freeze
ive experienced same issue every now and then primarily after reboot it will hang / freeze ect so i just go into adw settings and restart ADW works everytime if your on another launcher try to restart that launcher...

Go into recovery and clear all caches and fix permissions, and go From there.

I have experience some of the same issues on 2 different E4GT. I like the the rom but random boots force me back to stock. The most recent phone does not have the EMMC bug in it so I triedd a complete wipe, but the rom would work great for about a day then have random reboots again and sometime blank screens.
