[Q] power options mixed up - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

When I hold down the power button, my options are all mixed up.
I.E., download=reboot
reboot = Recovery
recovery = downlaod
I'm on unnamed Rom with EL29 Modem, EL29 Rogue Kernel, ICS 2.2, AIO MOD 2.2.
How to fix this?
-Aaron
Edit: I re-flashed AIO mod 2.2 and that did the trick...for anyone else who's had this problem

[Q] yellow triangle when flashing some roms...

Hello. I cannot seem to flash the [ROM] Frankenstein's Ego 4.5 (FE16 ICS)(S Voice Patch)☼ 5/21/2012.
I was on [ ROM ] Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.5 [ ICS l FD26 l Tweaked l Battery Saver Script ] prior.
I followed the instructions and odin to el26 kernel using the StockCWM-EL26.tar.md5. I wiped everything, reboot and get the yellow triangle and it loops me into the android recovery. I've even tried using the one click odin back to gingerbread, to flash the new rom. still the triangle. Please advise.
When you flash a custom kernel through ODIN it sets off the triangle this is normal. The phone will not boot with an ICS rom and GB kernel, you are flashing this to use recovery on a gingerbread kernel rather than risk a brick. You did everything correctly.
You ODIN the EL26 kernel causing the triangle, because it is the safest way to flash both the kernel and to move from where your at to where you are going. You use this kernel to flash your next ICS rom or even a GB one and once you reboot your phone should work but have the triangle.
The triangle will only go away with a USB jig, or on ICS you can use the Triangle away app which can be gotten from the market for cheap or for free if you look around XDA as the developer is only asking for support, not forcing it.
hi. thank you for the reply. im not concerned with the yellow triangle. its just that, the phone will only boot to the android recovery after flashing the frankenstein 4.5 rom. i cannot boot into the rom at all. this has happened with a couple other roms i wanted to try. i ended sticking with calkulin 1.5 ics rom cause it was the only one i could get to boot.
Yeah I can not tell you what is wrong with the particular rom I have not tried it. But everything else you are doing so far is correct. Flashing the EL26 through ODIN, booting to recovery, flash Calkulin's format all (preferable method) and then flash the rom. Added step for AOSP roms is to flash gapps.
Since you are on Calk's you can get rid of the triangle using triangle away if you are broke just find chainfire's thread or if you want to support him grab it from the market. But as you say not the real problem here.

Upgading Blazer to ICS?

I am currently on a GB Blazer Rom (EL29). It's been a long time since I've flashed anything to it and I haven't done any ICS flashes at all. I would like to try out thr FF18 Blazer but I don't wanna screw anything up. I've been looking at the forums all day and I'm still a little confused. I also want to install the AGAT kernel since it seems to be the safest. If someone could please help me with the steps, or at least tell me if these are correct.
1. backup
2. flash EL26
3. Calkulin's Format All
4. flash Blazer
5. wipe cache???
6. flash AGAT???
Also any Modems or regular mods (like extended power) can be flashed at any time just wipe cache???
Thanx alot
Since i literally just updated to FF18 Blazer ICS... here's what i did.
1.Nandroid backup (just go to recovery and backup to SD card)
2. Calk's format all
3. Flash Blazer ICS rom
4. Flash Agats kernal
5. Fash Calks TW Launcher 5x4
6. Flash Extender Power Menu mod
Wallah!

Help im at work flashed team kang aokp from stock ics Lost agat CWM ??

Wtf I've been on stock ics I've flashed back forth from that to cm9 6, and back 10 times even flashed blue kuban.
I decided to try aokp after flashing Agatcwm is gone back to stock 3e.
And I forgot to flash gapps before rebooting into the aokp rom so now I'm at work with no Market, no computer.
Any options to get a recovery back through using the stock 3e
F**** this aokp crap ..cm9 is just as well... WHERE IS MY CWM REC.?j
The problem isnt aokp, you didnt follow directions. Anyhow I'm running aokp and it comes with twrp recovery. Just use that.
Just press power until the poweroff/reboot menu pops up, then select reboot->recovery and you can then flash gapps.

[Q] FK23 to SlimBean?

I flashed a rooted-stock FK23 Rom (JZ054K.SPH-D710.FK23) - there was no CWM on FK23 at the time (not sure if there is now), but it really meant that I had to Odin instead of zip flash. I'm newbie enough to not really know the differences. I'd like to try SlimBean, but I really don't know where to start -- should I Odin an ICS Modem? Kernal with CWM? Please give me a little help....
Hey! To get to SlimBean, here's what you'll need: Agats FK23 recovery, Mobile Odin, an ICS or JB modem (I'm using F127) and of course the SlimBean ROM and gapps files(if you want them). Get Mobile Odin on your phone and flash Agats fk23 recovery then boot into recovery. Once there, wipe data, cache/dalvik cache or use JB format x2. and flash the ROM and the modem you like and you'll be good to go :thumbup:

Sorry I meant ICS or GB modem not JB haha
Is ET4G called a SII9100 also? I'm not sure which rom to download from Slim.
The SII9100 is the international SII but our phone is the SPH-D710. Flashing anything other than SPH-D710 can cause some serious problems. Ktempleton has a thread on SlimBean in the Original Development section with the download link
Safe Mode
Ok, I copied everything to the external card (rom, slim gaaps, bunch of other addons on slim's site. I flashed Agats FK23, and expected to reboot to recovery to erase cash, data, flash rom, modem -- yet I think I found a "safe mode" -- can't seem to find recovery. Am I supposed to -- shut down, (hold) vol down, press & release power to boot to recovery....
Am I doing something wrong?

To get to recovery hold power and volume up until you see the Galaxy S2 screen then let go of both buttons and it will load
I can't seem to get to download mode --
what do I do to get to download mode?

hMMM
It seems "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue" - It says I need to select recovery mode in Kies & try again.... what does that mean?

Couldn't help but noticed but I believe that JZ054K is for the Nexus 7. FK23 is for the Epic 4GTouch.Which phone do you have?

[ Issue Fixed] Error 7 + Custom Recovery w/ Kernel

Alright so i've searched google forums, yahoo, bing you name it i've tried. So i'm here today posting my issue.
i've done everything possible and did all of the recommended instructions to installing a rom / flashing
a custom kernel compatible with the rom, so far this is what i did and has happened to me.
E4GT ( Sprint ) on stock rooted GB27 w/ agat's source kernel 1.3.0.
Mobile Odin'd EL26 to flash the FL24 modem ( I wanted to try some AOSP roms and needed Data )
installed ExtendRom's AoCP through DirectBoot EL29 CWM5. ( I used tdunham's x2 jb wipe before i flashed )
The phone booted up all the way, custom recovery from Extends AOCP rom was working fine when i accessed it.
Forgotten to do a PRL / Profile update for the fl24 modem.
so I nandroid back to GB27 rom, updated PRL and profile.
Reflashed AOCP using jb 2x wipe beforehand. and i gotten the buildprop error for SPH-D710 Sprint / D710BST / D710GC01
like flashing it didn't even recognized the phones model number, then at the end goten the Error status ( 7 ) which I know some times
the file is a bad download. But I haven't gotten the buildprop error before.
So i PC Odin'd stock rooted reset data for GB27 and for some reason now it wont let me install AOSP based roms and flash a custom recovery for the rom its built for. I've been flashing Agat's source built gb27 1.3.0 and sxtp's source built with agat recovery 0.5.0.
When ever i flash AOSP its the buildprop error with Status ( 7 ) and im always nandroiding back to stock rooted GB27.
When I try and flash a custom recovery for TW JB GB27 both mobile odin and PC Odin my phone gets stuck at the
Samsung Galaxy II screen ( The very first boot image before the actual boot animation. )
I can PC odin and Mobile odin the EL26CWM5 and EL29's DirectBoot Kernel just fine. But the problem is it can only flash
TW JB roms like its locked to that specific rom for flashing only.
When i flash a few tw jb roms like SGSIV or kobridge's tweaked. The roms built in kernels are not replacing the stock original kernel
like its locked.
So if anyone wants to try and help me troubleshoot my issue, that'd be awesomeness.
This is my current setup for now.
E4GT on update GB27. ( ROOTED )
ROM - Kobridge's DeOdexed Rom.
Modem / Baseband - GB27
Software version - GB27
Kernel - Official Stock GB27 ( Can't install custom or my phone wont even go past the first boot screen )
Thankies for replies.
Go to the modem repository in Android development get the gb27 tar and flash in Odin or mobile Odin, it's not booting because the kernels you said you flashed aren't jellybean kernels.
Edit: last time I used any of the jb tw roms they were keeping the stock kernel. As you probably already know this phone when flashing roms doesn't keep the recovery you were on, it uses what is packed into the kernel.

Stock kernel with custom recovery? Ive been trying to flash agats source kernel n recovery but it
just doesn't seem to want to stay >_<
And the modem / base is already on gb27
Every time you flash a new rom you get the recovery that is with that rom, so after flashing the jb tw roms you will have to Odin or mobile Odin the recovery, in your case you said your wanting agat

That's the issue. Even with the roms that have custom recovery, the stock official will still stick.
Like TBSGIV, It's already using Agat's source, But the Kernel + Recovery is still stock official when I
flash it.
Also I've never had the yellow triangle when i booted up my phone before and the flash counter never has
been ticked when i install recoveries via mobile or PC odin, but it's starting to tick the counter and the yellow triangle only shows
up when I try booting into recovery.
Also I'm trying to look for a kernel + recovery that disables stock recovery flash like how kobridge's rom has it. But I forgot which one
was it.

The ROM has the stock recovery baked in. You are using agat's to flash the ROM but the ROM flashes the stock recovery. That is how it has always been with TW JB ROMs

Thanks for all the help fella's, I got everything working now. I One Clicked back to FI27 ( Unrooted + Wipe Data )
Officially updated each OTA after that and then rooted.
Guess the phone wasn't fully completely wiped and the recovery from all stock / CWM / AGAT / TWRP / Rogue
didn't want to cooperate with me.

btw TBSGSIV 1.4 has agat kernel with recovery. I flashed the rom using CWM5 EL26 and I had agat's 0.3.5 recovery after.
