[ACS][Odin]Stock EG30 Deodexed with Root 3.0/Busybox 1.18.4

Big thanks to RoadRAGEN for helping me figure out an ext4 issue! Odin this to get Deodexed stock EG30 with latest root and su binary and Busybox 1.18.4.
This does not wipe data.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. You do this at your own risk.
I have only tested this with the stock kernel and Bubby's CWM kernel.
Download​
IMPORTANT: Make sure you have installed the proper XP or Win7 drivers before starting. Also, remove the SD card from the phone (this may not be necessary, but having the SD card installed has caused Odin to fail for a number of people, so might as well just do it).
1. Extract the contents of the zip file to a folder
2. Open odin
3. Put your phone in download mode (Shut it off, wait for lights to all go out, then hold v-down + power)
4. connect phone (you should see odin put a Com4 or something like that in the first box. The actual number is NOT important what is important is something popped up there when you connected your device, meaning ODIN can see it)
5. The only box that should be checked is Auto Reboot.
6. You do not need to choose a pit file.
7. In the PDA Section choose the tar file. (Deodexed-Rooted-Busybox-EG30.tar)
8. Hit start. It will do its thing.
9. If it fails than try a new cable.
10. If the phone hangs for any reason take the battery and sdcard out and let it sit for an hour. Put it back together and try again.

reserved just in case

reserved again

Awesome crawrj. You do great work.

Dumb question..... Will this flash the stock kernel that was released with the phone or is this the stock kernel source that is available from Samsung? Awesome Work sir!

This does not contain a kernel. This is a stock file system that is rooted with busybox. I have tested on the root kernel and Bubby's CWM kernel. I have not tested on the Zedomax kernel.

Cool thanks!

File is up.

My phone is not rooted. If I flash this I will be rooted with the Kernel that was on the phone out of box? Also if I then flash Clock work recovery will it change the Kernel to the one others are claiming LOS on?

That is correct. It will be just like flashing with the stock kernel which I have done. If you flash CWM it will change the kernel. Whether or not you get the LOS is up in the air. I have been using it for days and haven't had it yet.

Just so I have this straight, this is a stock rom, no kernel, deoxed so once installed I can flash a theme over it.
I flashed buddies kernel with cwm rooted and flashed back to the stock kernel is there anything I need to do with my kernel or can I just flash this rom?
Edit: he beat me to it, must have been typing at the same time.

Im on starburst rom with zedomax v3..could i just flash the stock kernel and then flash this on top of starburst?

Awesome work. Does the Odin flash give you CWM as well? Or just SuperUser?

Ok...so the only way to have CWM is to change the kernel? I guess rom manager doesn't work for flashing CWM? Sorry if its a stupid question but I have been all over these threads for a week trying to decide which way to root and which way is better.

That what I was going to ask. You said we could flash a theme over this so I assume CWM is in there as well right?

thanks bro.. One more question does this wipe internal sd card?

This does not have the kernel. I left it out for people to make their own decision on what kernel to use. Once we get a completely stock kernel with stock CWM I will update it. But for now it is just the system partion.

Q) rooted el30..how do I change recovery to cwm?

I am on acs cwm and just want go to standard blue cwm. I can't read acs recovery very well and hardly at all when I am outside. On the cyan/blue cwm I can read it better. When I dl the recovery and flash it in acs recovery it goes to the cwm I want but it doesn't stick.

Do you mean it goes back to acs? Or it reverts back to stock recovery?
Try odining in the .tar for cwm5 ill link it

Very simple, I odined the recovery tar and it replaced the acs recovery. I could care less about old backups. Now it 3 finger boots cwm instead of acs. Thank you!

Download ROM Manager then choose Install Recovery and then at least through ROM Manager you will have CWM 5.0.2.7. But Biggie is right to say try to odin it in.

That doesn't work if you came from stock el30 and used acs method. Rom manager downloads a flashabke recovery and you can flash it from acs. It will take you to cwm after you flash it, but it will not survive a reboot.
This Odin method made cwm stick and now is my recovery.

Have you tried to get back into download mode? If you can then I'd suggest using Sfhub's one-click EL29.
Hopefully someone with more knowledge will chime in to help out.

In CWM recovery you can mount the internal or external memory so you can put a different ROM/kernel and flash it right in recovery. But still as Eso said it's best to get into download mode and use Odin

Not sure what you did and how you did it. Need more details. A lot more details. But if you can get to download mode (hold the power button + volume down till the boot screen shows), I'd follow Esoteric68's advice and use the one-click EL29 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101 or try the EL26 here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1623684. Make sure you use the 'Full Reset' options.

This one. I had the same experience and was able to go DL mode. Download the one-click odin rom from sfhub's thread (having kenel included one) and flash it.

All he did was flash the El26 CWM kernel we all use in ICS to flash from Rom to Rom, he is safe on where he is at.
The reason he gets boot loops is because it's a GB kernel and not an ICS kernel. The GT-I9000 is normal when using this file and happens to everyone right now when they use it.
He can flash a new Rom and such from where he is at, or if he wants to keep his current Rom he has to find an ICS kernel to flash through CWM that he has.

I told you this would happen in our PM conversation yesterday. I told you it would be OK and you would just have to boot into ClockWork Mod recovery from there and flash a ROM/kernel/modem.

Need help please

Hi i used the wrong recovery to backup my Samsung epic touch and now all I get is a blue light it won't start or boot to recovery or odin any help will be appreceiated. I'm using EL26 kernal to flash ICS roms I went to cwm touch recovery instead of rouge recovery and now I'm stuck.
I do also have the FE02 plus recovery I forgot to mention that with having all my stress.

Sounds like another hard brick... Your only small hope would be in a usb jig and then a jtag service, but both might fail and you now have an expensive paperweight.

Try the manual method to get into download mode (copied from sfhub's TAR posts):
Code:
Method #1
Power down phone
Wait for capacitative button lights to turn off
Simultaneously Press and Hold [Power] [VolDn] until confirmation screen appears
Press [VolUp] to enter Download mode
Without getting into download mode you're probably a victim of the eMMC lockup. But to know for sure, what kernel version were you on when you last tried a CWM restore or wipe?

I was using EL26 kernal. I should have booted into recovery manually but I used rom manager it booted me into cwm touch instead of rouge recovery. I was going to flash a new ICS rom so I wiped everything and formated system and when I pressed reboot recovery, and rather then just going back it froze so I waited a bit then pulled the battery that's when it wouldn't do anything except the blue light.
I used the e4gtauto file to flash FE02+recovery. Which I understand is the one you need if you are flashing ICS roms but i used cwm touch before I realized it was the wrong recovery it was to late.
BTW it won't go into download mode

OK, the behavior - specifically that the phone froze and wouldn't respond until you pulled the battery - matches the eMMC lockup. Unfortunately yours appears to be locking up during the boot process which is why you can't get to download mode. Only way to fix is to take to Sprint for replacement.
Still curious how you did it though - and let's try our best to find it so that others don't suffer the same fate:

Can you link to the post containing the file you used to flash? I'm not aware of an FE02 build - maybe Agat's FF02 repack? And can you also include source of CWM touch if from a different ROM?

Sounds like he used CWM Touch on an ICS build. It flashed the recovery through rom manager, but the recovery isnt built correctly for our phones. Its a hard brick and will need to get a replacement. YOU HAVE TO USE A GINGERBREAD RECOVERY FOR IT TO WORK RIGHT

Yea even then he stated fe02? Isnt that an ics kernal and also used touch which neither is good for flashing a new rom.. either way people make mistakes and like said already you have a nice paperweight.. to sprint you must go lol

If you want CWM use Option C in the Auto Root Package to install EL26+CWM (you are already rooted so Option A is not necessary)

OOOOOPS it was the FD02+recovery sorry

There's your culprit. Once you get it replaced you'll want to stick with GB or FF02 repack which was done with care to avoid triggering the lockup for now. Sorry you had to find out this way...

No CWM on EL29 + EL26 Recoverys

I am having issues booting into CWM EL26 + EL29 Recoveries.
I am able to odin the kernal but it just sticks on the Samsung logo if I try to access CWM.
It used to reboot and either go right into CWM or I would do Volume Up and Power to access.
I am currently on Paradox Rom GB27. I am trying to flash a ROM that needs EL26 or EL29 but cant access.
Any idea why I cannot access?
Also, if I have the charger plugged in (usb to comp), the screen gets stuck on a battery icon like its charging but doesnt move.
(think thats just because the charger is plugged in) BUT it seems that whatever this kernal is doing it the phone it is Freezing it at that first boot point.
I reflashed GB27 so im fine for now but just want to solve this mystery.
Any help appreciated! thanks!!

I can try mobile odin. I have the full version. I will give it a shot. The thing is
I had those kernals for over a year, always used them, worked fine.
Now all of a sudden they dont. I tried downloading agai , checked md5, everything appears correct.
I will post back the results.

No luck with mobile odin. Same thing. Stuck at the White Samsung Logo.
I am out of options. Unless there is another kernel I can try that is similar to el26 + el29.
Its weird how gb27 works fine... I just dont understand that. Could something be broke or misconfigured on my phone to not allow
installing el26 + el29?

Thanks for your help. I appreciate it. I will stick with Paradox for now.
I wanted to try multi window rom but flashing on gb27 gives force closes and constant reboots.
Is it possible that once im on gb27, I cant go back and flash a gb rom? Ive done it
Before so thats why im stumped. Its like my phone doesnt support it.
I went on rwilco and downloaded multiple files and made sure they were with cwm.
They all do the same thing. Heres one for you... would water damage cause those kernels not to work?
Phones fine besides the kernel issue.
Also is it possible when doing cleanup on my phone and deleting
Old backups cause an issue? I thought to myself... wait I can restore an old rom with
El29! Lol no where to be found, already got rid of them.

Then flash the el26 kernel zip..reboot recovery..

Try doing an Odin stock rooted Rom flash on ICS and then working from there using mobile Odin. Sometimes I can't do the pc Odin for those kernels so I use mobile Odin and it works perfect.
If you're trying to flash the new SHOShock Rom by TD then I'm having issues with that too. My phone gets stuck on a boot cycle and if I try to flash a nandroid back up then it gets stuck on the Samsung screen. Only way out of it was flashing a GB27 rooted stock Rom in pc Odin.

First, download the el29 recovery kernel zip located in the rwilco repository.
Next either flash, or already be on the gb27 agat recovery kernel (also can be found in repository).
While in agat recovery, navigate to "mounts and storage"
Select "format /preload" (and whatever else you want to wipe out)
Back out, then "install zip from SD card"
Flash the el29 zip and you should be good to go.
