What is the best way to get back to a stock rom from a phone flashed with CleanGB v1.1.2[MTD]?
Thanks.
Odin would be the best way, you could have flashed this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1461377 but you're on MTD

Thanks for the replies guys.
@masaidjet - Sadly I was not the one that flashed it to begin with, but I'm the one tasked to fix it.
@Big Goron - that is what I was looking for, think I can take it from here but will gt in touch if I have questions/issues.
Thanks again...
Dont use the USB cable that came with your phone.....if you dont know that by now.

I did the OTA update to ECO5. I rooted/installed CWM using this. When I restart to CWM it goes through the initial setup, then backs up my files, then for some reason restores some files (which I don't want restored). After it is finished, I reboot the phone and it doesn't go past the Samsung screen. I have to stock flash, update, and root again. I did this 3x so far. I even deleted the CWM folder from my SD card which had the backup folder..what do I do?
Its backing up your files to convert you to an ext4 filesystem. Then it restores all the files. After its done you have to flash an ext4 compatiable kernel it it wont boot you. The stock kernel can not support ext4. So after its done flash whatever rom/kernel combo you want or just a kernel. Then your phone will boot up.

Thanks much for your prompt response. What would be your recommendation for rom/kernal and kernal alone?
Midnight rom is really nice

Its all up to you but if you want stock rom and custom kernel I'd go with genocide by rodderick. I'm actually on acs frozen rom with genocide kernel. Awesome combo.

I have the acs frozen rom currently. Do I just "install zip file" through CWM to get the Genocide Kernal? Does it clear everything if I do so?

Are you trying to say its not possible to go to EC05 OTA? because I'm about 1000 percent sure i just did a week or two back. ive been up all night wondering if i should do this root but im not trying to get a 5th epic soon...
I have converted to ext4 on stock EC05 I use CWM 3.0.0.6 it fixes that problem

Hey Team XDA,
I recently bought an epic 4g for my wife but it was loaded with DK28. It seems I've tried my darnedest to odin/flash using the computer. I notice that while booting into recovery I have an option to use update.zip. Is this okay coming from this ROM? if so, must I go to a specific update.zip from DK28?
Thanks for your help guys/gals!

Is the phone rooted. what recovery do you have. I would say try to flash a different rom and then try to use odin. make sure you flash a bml read the wiki on rooting and or watch the video's that qbking77 has made he has a lot of helpful videos and links to the threads you will need.
hope this helps
Download the el30 in android development and use odin to flash it. You won't be rooted yet, but that will get you up to date. Dk28 you say? Wow, they were old skooool.

I recently rooted my phone with EL29 full restore one click Odin. I want to try the tFD10_v0.1.0 ROM do I have to modem to FD10 in order to flash this ROM or can I stay on EL29. How does it work I see a lot if roms with FD05 or 10 does that mean I can't flash them since my modem is EL29.

Ok first off this info is all over the place and I advise prior to taking the plunge into ICS you read up on EVERYTHING and when I say EVERYTHING I MEAN EVERYTING. Now with that said you can either Odin or flash the modem onto your phone but it is not required to run the ICS rom. Also you can run an IcS modem with a GB rom.
Once again all this info is in xda as asking you may feel is easier but please please please for all thats holy...LOL just do some research before going forward. Dont want to see your phone become a paperweight. Go into his ICS thread and read like 10-20 pages and see whats going on prior to flashing... JUst MY thouGHTs...
Edit: to clarify
Modems = Any modem for any rom ICS or GB you can try them all if you like
Kernels= ICS kernels only for ICS roms / GB kernels only for GB roms
Ok I'm going to stay away from ics for now. I do want to try the FD05 leak by using one click Odin though so can I just Odin over my setup now which is Calkulin E4GT v 3.0 cause I'm already rooted? Sorry if I'm not making sense I'm trying to word it properly

Check out this thread prior to messing with ICS stuff http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525495. My phone is currently bricked so be careful.
I went to samfirmware and got my firmware, and there is only one file (a .tar.md5)
What do I do with it? I have odin 4.03

unless otherwise noted by samfirmware, their stock ROMs are Odin flashable.
How would I go about it? Which options would I use?

Okay it worked, but it's still overclocked and it still has root.... Its installing the OTA 2.3.6 right now
(edit)
Just checked, Clockwork is gone.
:| Are you doing this because of ICS? Because if it comes out it will only be maybe a couple weeks before root and then you can just flash that on top of your current rooted instead of having to go through more work...
Hopefully we will get AoSP ICS so I won't need the touchwiz ugly version. (unless, however, it's the new tw that comes with GS3 )
Yes, prep for ics. I want ics as fast as possible! (And I love touchwiz)

So i have a epic 4gt. Ive tried a few different roms 4.2.2 and everyone i try i don't get any 3g, no swipe, and cant send or receive pic mail through mms, and also volume seems to be way lower then stock. Idk if i did something wrong? idk pls help thanks so much. I personally don't think its a rom...im leaning more towards my phone...its kinda rare that all roms i try are the same.
@firechickenmatt
Make sure that you have a ICS modem, unfortunately on AOSP, the volume is low, and the AOSP keyboard does have gesture typing, but it doesn't come with the swipe keyboard

And if you bounce back between AOSP, CM, and Tw, make sure you change modems according to the dev's instructions. Data won't work on jb roms with ics modems, same as it won't work on aosp and cm with a jb modem.

Settings/about phone/baseband version. Should be able to take it from there
Sent from my SPH-D710BST using xda premium
Yea, the JB update has a jb modem (GB27), ICS modems (FI27, FL24....etc,etc,) don't worry, if you go to rwilco12's android repository, they have all the modems, and there categorised by type, ( GB,ICS and JB)
OK well went back to stock for a while...but same thing happening lol I can't win...every time I turn off WiFi no signal (3g)...and I'm guessing I have jb modem hence the gb27

That's because you can't flash modems using Mobile Odin on our device. You'll have to flash a custom kernel using mobile Odin and then flash the jb modem in cwm.

Cwm is clockwork mod...don't flash anything before you read a whole lot. There is a guide by VeNuM about CWM....

You cannot use mobile odin to flash modems. You'll have to download a zip and flash via cwm (recovery). :thumbup:

I hate to say this, but if you don't know what CWM is, you are a noob. You need to spend some time reading before you touch anything else on your device.

brain fart it hit me right after i hit send. but i still need a suggestion on a kernel that will work. again i'm doing everything modin odin since i have no USB functionality.
i've never used CWM but i have read about it i have rooted every phone i have own, sticking mostly to stock roms for compatibility issues since i kept reading about this and that not working in this rom or that rom. but things have gotten so much better. i'm ready to explore. i'm running stock ICS and want to get some JB action on my SG2 epic touch. then again i may just upgrade to the SG4 and have the port fixed put it to stock and ebay it

I think I mentioned this to you before. You can't use Mobile Odin to flash modems. It won't work. Are you on a stock jelly bean rom? Stock ics rom? If you are on fl24 rom, use fl24 modem. If you are on gb28 rom, you have to use jb modem. If your usb doesn't work, flash a custom recovery with mobile Odin, boot into recovery, and flash modems that way. Just ensure you have a stock kernel(or custom) of the same build you currently have on your phone in zip format saved to your phone before flashing custom recovery.
