[Q] Going completely back to stock from CleanGB - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I just want to verify this before I flash my wife's phone back to stock.
I put an older CleanGB EI22 based rom back in Dec 2011 and the phone is having issues so I want to go back to unrooted stock.
Is this what I use (EL30) Official EL30 Stock Tar: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1501424
Also, is the latest OTA version from Sprint. I don't have an EPIC 4G, so I haven't been following what the latest is.
thanks!

or is FC09 the latest official tar

okay QBking77 to the rescue: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QTQ6Rn0FBSk
props!

EL30 or FC09 will work for you. FC09 is the latest official but has not reached everyone for the OTA yet. It is a 6 week long release.

Eb13

Ok, so I have a MAJOR problem. Before the eb13 froyo update came out, I tried to get dk28 on my phone. As of current, my baseband is dk28 but my build is di18. I got my wifes epic to the eb13 from the manual update cause I didn't screw with her phone. But because my baseband is still dk28, I'm guessing atleast, I can't run the manual update to eb13 to complete. I don't remember what I did or I could just retrace my steps and go back to di18 for my epic. Could someone help me get back to di18 for my epic, the easiest way please, I'm kinda an idiot. Id really like to get the official froyo on my phone. Thank you in advance!

Don't bother Odining to DI18, just use the EB13 odin and you will start fresh with the Froyo build

be careful from odining the new modem alone and make sure you have a nandroid backup, i ran into system uid is unstable and got unlimited force closes, then nandroid restored then i had the new modem.

Ec05 update

I am running eb13 with genocide kernal how do I get to the new ec05 and should I? Also is there a way to get the new sprint ID on eb13?
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
If you want the EC05 update you will need to Odin back to DI18 and it should begin to download from there OTA. You can also use Odin to push EC05 to your phone. But in order to do this you will need to Odin back to DI18 first then odin again to EC05. I haven't seen Sprint ID available for EB13. I went ahead and went back to DI18 and then Odined to EC05 just to check it out and Sprint ID was on there but i wasn't really impressed. It had a few kind of cool features, but that is just my opinion.
Hope that helps.

I'm still on EB13 too. Not because I can't go to EC05, but I'm waiting for the ACS ROM for EC05. I want EXT4 and in order to do that, you have to flash directly to a ROM after it formats EXT4 and CWM3. Once their ROM is available, I'll be making the switch. Until then, no reason to go anywhere IMHO.

[Q] is ek02 radios required to flash a ek02 rom?

Quick question on how to get to EL30?

Hi guys,
I'm running a rooted nightly CM7 build, and it's really great, however I've heard some really good things about the EL30.
I have two questions.
1. How can I get from my current build to EL30? Do I need to odin? If so can I get some links on what I need to do.
2. I forgot :S.
Thanks
Steps:
1. Find odin 1.85 it should be in the restore a bricked epic forum as well as the ec05.tar
2. Use the instructions and odin back to stock ec05, once on ec05 get on wifi and mess around till the prompt to update to ei22 comes up and install it.
3. Once on ei22 ill link you the update.zip you can flash in the stock recovery and you'll be good to go.

What possible goods things have you heard about EL30 that you don't have on CM7?

[Q] No service after flashing to CleanGB, CWM 5.0.2.7 from 2.1 DI18

I thought this phone was on 2.3, but it was on 2.1 (or 2.2) DI18. I updated CWM to 5.0.2.7 and then flashed CleanGB MTD.
When I reboot, I cannot get service, and airplane mode switches really fast between on and off.
I believe it may be the modem, so I am trying to upgrade the modem from DI18 to EC05 so I can update to EL30. However, the current DI18 to ECO5 flashable zip I have is giving me an error (Status 7).
Aside from from the modem, any other thoughts on how to fix it?
Thanks.

You can just flash a modem through odin . I think the newest official tar is el30 so here it is : EL30 Modem.tar place this in the PDA box in odin make sure nothing but auto-reboot is checked and hit start. Make sure you have a trusty cable and not a stock one. You could also need to update your prl as well as your profile so do that wait a minute or so and reboot the phone. You can do this in the about phone section where it says updates or something similar.. i dont know cuz im on cm9
It could also be a bad download of CleanGb so you can always try redownloading and reflashing that.

I would say coming from Eclair, he might want to stick to official 2.3 Touchwiz for awhile rather than go to AOSP ROMs.
Hm
No matter what you choose to flash, I would of Odin'd the latest Official Tar, and then done a profile update, prl update, etc. THEN Flash the rom/poison of your choice. IF you do end up going to whatever MTD rom, there's an EL30 SD Temp flashable build on Epic CM9 Blog that can let you update your profile on MTD Roms that support kexec, which I think most, if not all, do by now. That way you can update your profile, prl, etc without having to Odin back. Glad to hear that a modem update fixed it!

What do you recommend? I was looking at CM9, but it seems too unstable.

Its not unstable at all its come a LONG way since alpha. I personally run aokp 31 with my samurai kernel because aokp has more options than cm9. But both are equal in stablilty =].
