New to E4GT - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hey, just wanted to say hi to my new classmates. Just traded my Photon4G for an Epictouch. I would also like to ask yall to help me out with getting all the goodies on my phone. I am naive with sammy(ODIN). Ive only own HTC(RUU) and Motorola(SBF). If you have the time to link me to root,CWM and the best Rom in your opinion I'll return the favor by hitting the thank button. No need to be a jerk and ask me read. Thanks.

Welcome. Good place to start would be in the development forum. If you have questions, ask them in the Q&A forum. Glad to have you on board.

One things for sure, you'll never have to worry about different bootloader versions, degrading or anything. Odin will let you go to any damn version you please

Ok im rooted One question...I'm on EL29 and to install CWM following the guide you provided it only includes EL30,FB17 and a couple others. Which one do I odin to?

Look for the EL29 restore thread. After the restore instructions are instructions and a link for the EL29 kernel repacked with CWM. Sorry xda app is fc'ng when I try to copy the link. Stay away from ROM manager and CWM touch recovery. If you're going to flash cm9 make sure you flash cm7 from Rootzwiki first to get the original CWM recovery.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Also, if coming back from ICS to GB use sfhub's EL29 restore method. It's the safest way to revert and you can restore a GB nandroid once you reinstall the repacked EL29 kernel.

Be very careful when you come back from ICS to a non ICS rom. Many bricks have occurred! Read the instructions good.
Good choice on ditching the photon and coming to the good side!

If you are just starting out I highly recommend that you follow qbking77's work he will help you with his video tutorials. I owe that man my life lol.

Just got mine today -- had my NS4G stolen last week and had the option to switch, so I did.
I just need to get away from Touchwiz. As far away from Touchwiz as possible. May throw AOKP on as I'm familiar (used it on NS4G and also on GT10.1).
Any other suggestions?

When did it become a jerk move by telling you to do some reading when it comes to serious modifications to your phone?

Welcome to the E4GT family! Just a couple things to know 1) Stay away from ROM Manager 2) Stay away from CWM Touch or any temp recoveries 3) Be very careful when using an ICS recovery (for now atleast til all the kinks are fixed) such as Rogue Repacks. Have fun!

Rom manager great for flash if used to boot into cwm recovery when using a steady repacked kernel. Never wipe data or reset in recovery when using an ics recovery. Use calks zip to wipe. Partitions changed in ICS and you will brick your phone

Ya I agree with you. This is my only device and if I were to brick it I would be F**ked and my wife would KILL ME while i was sleeping. I thought i would at least put the option out there. I want to do my part to enhance development is all my intention is. I think the risk is Low to moderate in terms of actually bricking a device but I always expect the worse and hope for the best. Like I said I would rather be 100% honest then Lie and someone god forbid brick there device. If no one wants to take the risk I will have no choice but to suck it up and risk my own death at the hands of my wife. Lord help me

That to me is an unaswerable question. Its like asking what undys should I wear today to your buddies. Not really a question anyone but yourself could answer lol.
Ok im teasing don't hate me lol. I guess what I mean to say is what ever rom feels that meets your needs.
I have flashed over 5 roms in the last 3 weeks and I finally found one that fits me. DS Rev.7.

I so agree with you bro.... the devs are just doing all of this for free. Which ever any of us use is just icing on their cake. To them it just means that their knowledge has paid off.
Too many choices out there to make one single decision. Carry 1-2-3-8 roms in ur card. Choose a diff one everyday of the week. And one day it will make its mark that the one your using will meet all your needs. Until then........ PLEASE!!!!! Read instructions and follow devs install guides. Their there for a reason. Don't be one of the many that post treads about how they didn't research and ended up with a paperweight.
Thats my .02¢
Sent from my SGH-T989 using xda app-developers app
I don't mean to sound politically incorrect here. But I don't think devs do this for us at all. If I had the talents to dev my main reason for developing would be my own personal gains in being able to improve the experience with that shiny new device I've been wanting. Then after I would upload my work for anyone else if they wish. Hopefully cash in some sweet donations if my work is THAT good. But I will never ever believe that devs do it "for us". All devs are hackers. And hackers all hack for the same reasons. Personal gain and attention. Just my 2 cents.

Agat recovery

Hey if anyone was willing to help me. I'm on agat's recovery for FI27. I'm having trouble flashing roms. Is it the recovery or is it me. And if you guys would recommend a rom that lasts at least 10hrs. On stock battery that would be great. Preferably ics or jellybean.

Stock JB (rooted) worked for 10+ hrs for me with moderate calls and wi-fi.
What kind of trouble are you having with flashing ROMs? FI27 should be one of the more stable versions out there!

Yes same here currently running GA10 stock rooted. Battery lasts all day with normal use. For me thats at least 2 hours of screen time which can include games or nav. Also some light texting and calls and bluetooth audio.
Today I'm at 6 hours up, 70% left with 45 mins screen time.
Does it give you an error code or message?

It says "status 7error" or "bad" but mostly "installation aborted" on multiple recoveries. Sorry it took so long to reply back. At the movies. And then grocery store.

Ok so i wasn't completely detailed with my last post. I've tried flashing pretty much all the jellybean roms available for this phone, with a fair amount of ics roms.
When i go to recovery i first do the wipes. Then i try to flash. Only kernels or recoveries successfully flash. is it a bad zip.
Ps. I have to download directly to my phone cause. I don't have enough patience for Centry Links 75kbps download speeds. If there's a problem with that. Feel free to let me know on anything I'm asking about. I'm open to any information. I've only been able to flash Lightweight v0.5 and after the aroma installer it gets stuck in bootloop. Sooooo annoying.

I usually get those errors when trying to flash from a stock kernel. try changing kernels and see if that helps. I've had good luck with FK 23 and EL26.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I have tried EL26. The Odin one-click method for FK23 does not read on my computer. It's weird. Ot always says error. Is there anyway to get the zip of FK23 and flaah that zip through a recovery.

Did you resolve your issue? Jelly bean is working for many on this phone, way better than ics ever could. So far as I know the only safe way to get jb is to do the one chick, QbKing head a video on YouTube with some helpful explications, look it up it may help you out.
And if you found a solution post back and share.

Hey sorry it took sooo long to respond back. I've been busy, had to go on an overnighter for scouts.
So what I did was download the Cm 10.1 ROM file and gapps. I followed Qbking's video on how to install. Worked perfectly. So now I know that it's just the ROM files that I have are bad zips.
