[ ROM ] Stock Rooted FB17 System [ ICS / OS 4.0.3 ] - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

This ROM is completely stock with exception that root/busybox is included and it uses the stock(No CWM) kernel since no repack exist. Once a repacked kernel is available, I will reupload the ROM to include it
All must be flashed through CWM, so flash the modem also in the same CWM session because once you reboot, you won't have CWM
Factory reset \ Data format is HIGHLY recommended

Thanks calk.

Wow, Calkulin is back with a vengeance! Thanks so much! My only reservation is losing CW recovery. I think I will wait till that is added before I try this out.

Does anyone know if we can restore apps with data through titanium backup with this rom? Or would there be a conflict because I was running gingerbread before?

does data work?

[ACS][Odin]Stock EK02 Deodexed with CWM/Root 3.0.7/Busybox 1.20 also with zip

Odin or Flash this to get Deodexed stock EK02 with latest root and su binary and Busybox 1.20. This also comes with Chris's Stock CWM EK02 kernel. This does not include the modem. To flash the modem follow this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1367695.
This does not wipe data.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. You do this at your own risk.
Thanks to kingsway8605, calkulin, -viperboy-, shabbypenguin, chris41g, T.C.P, graffixnyc, digits, and everyone else who helped out!!
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-CWM-EK02.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.

This can be used to root as well right?

Yes but it won't just root. It will give you everything else. So if you don't want deodexed system don't flash this. If you want Deodexed system this is for you.

im currently on 2.3.4, eg30 modem, and blazer rom. all the new threads are kind of confusing me. So i should odin this stock ek02 and flash the modem. then flash whatever rom i would like to use after, correct?
Sorry if this may seem like a dumb question, you say Odin or Flash. If Flashing, is it as easy as just going into recovery and flashing as a zip like a ROM, or is there more to it?
What are the odds that overstew's ICS theme will work on this?
I just flashed the zip in CWM, flashed fine.
formatted system
wiped data
wiped cache
wiped dalvik
flashed zip
Calks Format all zip would work just fine as well

I'm about to try his Ciano universal, will report back. if that works the ICS should as well
Edit: unfortunately The Ciano Universal Theme does not work over this. Wiped cache, dalvik, flashed theme. looked like it went through fine. rebooted from CWM but didn't get past first boot screen - pulled battery. Powered on, same thing. Went back to CWM to re-wipe and reflash(twice over itself) to try again, but same problem upon boot. oh well. There'll be plenty of options soon.

You should never flash themes, mods, roms etc that are built on different OS versions. It might appear to work but there are changes in the versions so you are basically trying to mix pieces of 2.3.4 with 2.3.6 which is a bad idea.
Thanks, understood. Had some backups at hand so I thought I'd give it a go. Thx for the rom!

[Q] How to root EK02 on Mac?

Any help would be awesome. Thanks!
Anyone? Please...
not sure what you are asking..
If you are rooted already, just install a rom that is EK02
If you are not rooted, just root as you normally would, then install a EK02 Rom..
Korey, I think you would Odin a kernel with recovery and flash superuser.zip.

Oh crap, my fault...forgot the Mac part. Did you try Heimdall? I have read posts that its working for others but I have never used it
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I assume you can get CWM onto your phone using your Mac. If so then just follow steps 3&4 of this post
3) Use CWM to install calkulin/chris41g's [STOCK] EK02 ROM (rooted) + EK02 Kernel (CWM5 repack)
4) OPTIONAL - Flash EK02 Modem
- This only works if you currently have EG30 modem - ie don't do this if you have EG12 or EG31 modems
- You can tell what modem you have by going to menu->settings->about phone->baseband version
- Once you go to EK02, you can only go back to EG31 or EG12. You CANNOT go back to EG30
- Use CWM to flash EK02 modem from qbking77's [Modem] EK02, EG31, EG12

Do you know how to root the phone using a mac? If not heimdall does work. You need to be comfortable using terminal and it's very easy once you know what you are doing. I rooted my phone using Max's kernel v3 with CWM. It's a thread for it in the development section.

Restoring Gingerbread Images
I am attempting to use rogue_ET_recovery_1.2.2_FC06 to restore to a Android 2.3 backup. I have tried to restore a couple of backups, in each case, I am getting a MD5 mismatch. Each time I did a OS backup, recovery did create a MD5 sum.
These backups are located on the external sd card.
Are there any tools that can parse the backups and verify MD5 sums?
Any other suggestions?
Thanks.

Known Issues-
-Flashing anything for ICS is risky and could result in bricking your device. It has been said a safe bet is using stock EL26 CWR to flash. By flashing our repack you agree that we are not held liable.

I used odin EL29 + CWM to get back to 2.3.6, but still encountered MD5 mismatch when I attempted to restore several backups of Blazer rom. I finally had to flash via recovery the Blazer rom. I did happen to rename the backup folders at the time of the backups. I read somewhere else in the forum where renames with spaces will clobber MD5 checksum.
Thanks.
I have been using all of his repacked versions to flash themes, app packs, and updates... so that is a huge bit of misinformation there!
I haven't even software bricked my phone and I've literally flashed every single leak in the past week or so.
Just follow directions folks.

Honestly its crazy how many different opinions exist on this topic. Some of the top dogs are saying this kernel / recovery shouldn't be used for flashing roms, others say you can't nandroid from ICS to GB, others say Odin is the only safe way to go...

[HELP] A little confused on how to flash ICS..

I'm currently trying to flash an ICS rom to my friends epic touch he has the EL29 build on his device.
I was able to get it rooted and I flashed the rouge recovery successfully.
But I keep reading and seeing in videos that it is recommended to only flash ICS via gb recovery while on a particular rom and thats were my confusion starts..
If anyone can clear this cloudiness Id appreciate it..
Any turorial videos or up-to-date guides would be help-ful
This guide(http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24028398&postcount=683) didnt help because the first link for the needed file is down, so that was a no-go.

If you do the odin one-click FE-22 it will install a stock ICS rom for you.

The one click FE22 will give you stock recovery. If you're going to flash another rom after that you're best bet is el26 but things are changing super fast right now so keep reading through the threads.
