[ ROM ] Stock Rooted EK02 System [ OS 2.3.6 ]

Here's a complete ROM for those that don't want to go through the hassle of reverting back to EG30 just to get the update
BIG THANKS TO VIPERBOY, CHRIS41G AND EVERYONE ELSE THAT HELPED PULL THIS....
This ROM is completely stock with exception of root/busybox added and it uses the repacked EK02 that Chris41G posted so that you keep CWM
Stock Rooted EK02 ROM (v1.0)

Thanks Caulk!

umm ek02 good i need the files.. Thanks man

awesome... thanks Calk!

Can I just ask what is the benefit of this EK02 system?
Is it a step towards getting ICS working?

Can we even revert back to EG30? I'm on EG31...

Thanks for this Calk.
I'll post this question here as well.
I still have a EG30 nandroid backup from when I was on stock, now I'm on EG31 everything. If I restore the backup will that put me back on EG30 modem as well?

Modem is not backup by recovery, the only way now to update to the EK02 modem is when the full modem.bin is released in the update tar like the one for EG31. Once the update is released and the sprint stores get the tar, someone will post it like they did for EG31, so I'm not too worried.

ROM is up now...

I want to clarify something about this install. If we only want the modem update but we have already flashed the EG31, we need to flash this rom. That part I understand. My question is after we flash this rom and are updated, can we then flash a custom rom like yours or restore a nandroid since the modem isn't backed up by the nandroid and still be running on the newest modem but with our own custom rom? Or will we be stuck with this rom until the modem file can be extracted at a later date?

calk, thanks for the update and rom.
I installed your latest rom with eg31 yesterday and its running great. My question is can I run your wipe all zip and then flash this rom? If so do I get the ek02 benefits? (if there are any?) will I have any issues?
thanks in advance

sorry if its been stated, but this rom flashes the new radio too? i dont have to flash it thru heimdall? im on eg31 atm

Wow big night I see
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

as far as i know anyone on eg31 is sol. this eko2 is an update to eg30 and therefor can only be flashed over eg30. if you have anything but eg30 you need to wait until the official update comes out and the eg30 modem can be pulled. if you have eg31 nothing you can do will allow you to load ek02. no back up even nandroid or any rom, restore nothing, sorry.

anyway to find out which modem you are on?
also what does 3KO2 actually give us?

Question on EK02?

So anyone that has flashed EG31 cannot flash anything from EK02 at the moment?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

yes. Just wait till the official release/leak.

You will be able to flash once we get an offiicial tar.

Kernel or ROM, yes. Modem, no
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

You cannot flash the ek02 MODEM update. You can flash the kernel and ROM. The easiest way to do that at this point is flash Calk's EK02 rom over in the dev section. This will give you everything except the modem.
Just to be clear, you are not waiting for the OTA. The full OTA has been extracted and posted. You are waiting for the tar, which comes around the time of the OTA usually. The tar is given to the Sprint technicians and one of them usually leaks it here. The OTA modifies files, it doesn't install a new modem or system, it modifies the one you have. if you don't have the files it is attempting to modify, the update fails.
Think of the OTA as a windows update and think of the tar as the windows installation cd.

Update is launching today!

The latest update for the Epic Touch is launching today(12/7). Some people are already getting the OTA.

The first member who gets the update please post it
Thanks

That's the best news I've heard since earlier....(facepalm)
The bummer is we already have it so until there's a .tar we will still have the modem issue

I think jmejiaa from the other thread has received the update. I have already asked him to post the update.

So if you are on a custom ROM, will the update push / prompt? Or do you have to go back to stock?
Does it matter if the custom ROM is EG30 or EK02 based?

Oh no, I don't have it. Sorry if it seemed like I did.
I'd be glad to grab the update if I am pointed towards some instructions on how to do that. My phone is not rooted it that matters.

You won't get an OTA on a custom ROM
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App

Question: I'm rooted and on Calkulin's Rom. Should I accept OTA update when I receive it?
Does this Unroot or brick my phone?

Will I still get the update even if I did the qbking manual update? 100% stock not rooted.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

I think the bottom line is, if you have anything but stock EG30 on your phone (ROM, kernel and modem) the update will download but the install will fail. I doubt it will brick your phone as the update probably does version checks before it starts the install process.
Same goes for people with the EG31 modem. You folks will have to wait for a TAR leak.

theres no proof of that eg31 was provided by a sprint tester so that would mean his phone wouldnt take the ota either? we will just have to wait and see! but you do have to be on a stock not rooted phone and currently the only way to get back to completely stocl is with the eg31 tar

So im guessing a factory restore odin of eg30 is in order.

Yea we'll just have to wait it out then and stick w/ stock kernels for now. So far i haven't gotten a single LOS since flashing it. It's def a bummer tho, I wanna go back to those fancy kernels.

EL30 TAR file?

Hey guys I just wanted to know if we will ever get an EL30, or at the very least an EI22 tar so we can Odin to EL30 instead of going to EC05 and OTA updating to EL30.

Yeah, they are pretty much over us. I read somewhere they were just trying to get paid membership from us. Appreciate what they did in the past but that relationship is over apparently. Also check their site. They never got an official released tar. Closest was EB13. We will need Samsung to release it.

OK so a new question why is Samsung reluctant to release the tar? Are they required to under like the open source license for android or are those not even related?

I believe Sprint has control over when the tar can be posted. Samsung did their open source obligation with the kernel source. Sprint are the ones that told Samsung no more over the wire releases after the EB13 debacle.

EI22 /w EC05 modem Tar
I have this tar I downloaded from the dev section sometime ago.
You can Odin it and then flash the EC05 -> EI22 modem.
I can put it on a hosting site if you'd like
edit: it is pre-rooted as well.

Sure that would be great

That isn't the one I have; I didn't find that when I searched either. Thanks for the assist.
Those are not pre-rooted.
as an alternative this one is pre-rooted if you're wanting to get back to BML and flash a ROM: (toadlife created this tar as well)
here is a link for the tar http://min.us/mWuL5XjVm
You'll want to update the recovery afterwards too.

Mobile Odin says some exe files may work. There's an EG30 factory ROM available, use that and flash EL29. Check the wiki for EG30 Odin.

Then just install the CWM kernel and you are good to go!
Fyi - If you don't like the yellow triangle on boot I'd use Mobile Odin to flash the CWM.

Just an FYI, installing CWM via the Auto Root package in the development sticky also would not trigger the yellow triangle.
Only flashing a kernel/recovery not signed by Samsung using regular ODIN will trigger the yellow triangle.

What are you trying to accomplish? There's a factory EG30 Tar file for Mobile Odin. It's not rooted but will get you to factory and you can update to EL29 via OTA. If you want to Odin and keep root you'll have to find a rooted ROM tar in one of sfhub's threads. At worst, you'll have to extract individual packets from the exe files or find an individual file in the resource section.

Alternatively, couldn't he just install the EL29 rogue repack with mobile odin, then restore a GB nandroid if he has one? This would keep him from having to install another rom altogether, and get him back to previous setup

Sure, if there is a nandroid backup that would be quickest to restore rom and user data. Still need to flash the modem as above.

Isn't modem completely independent of ROM and kernel though, so that wouldn't be necessary, unless he really wanted everything back to EL29?

It just depends what you want to restore to. You can run an EL29 ROM with a different modem. If someone says they want to restore back to a previous version, unless they mention otherwise, I give them instructions to restore modem, kernel, and ROM.
