Hey guys. I have a friend that has an Epic 4G Touch and we're trying to get him set up with this ROM and it says that Rogue Recovery should not be used.
However, I have a few questions. First of all, where can you find a non-Rogue recovery (CWM only) for EL26? I have scoured the internet looking.
Second, what's the difference between CWM Rogue and just plain CWM? Is there one?
If it helps, we have an unrooted E4GT with EL26. (I have a Desire HD so I'm unfamiliar with all this complicated Odin stuff.)
Thanks so much in advance for your help. You guys are awesome!

Umm in that thread you linked to, at the very beginning of the Install Instructions there is a live link to the EL26 with cwm recovery.
Usually these threads include files/links to everything you need but you need to read them thoroughly from top to bottom, read the follow up comments and then re-read the OP before you even dream of installing a custom ROM you are unfamiliar with. Also if you have questions ask them before you flash, not after you've borked your phone. Usually it's best to ask questions about a ROM in the thread for the ROM or look in the general forum to see if there is a discussion thread for it, and there is one for AOKP.

Good luck and happy flashing!

1. There is none, that was the last official CWM recovery made for this phone
2. Rogue recovery had gingerbread source code so flashing between and GB roms was easy...ICS source code hasn't been released since there isn't an official build yet
If you're going to flash a stock based rom, the recovery doesn't matter as much. However anything AOKP/AOSP should always be done from el26 until TCP releases his source kernel.

Wow...that's embarrassing. I guess I should have taken a closer look.
And I actually can't post on the development threads just yet. That's why I posted here in the Q&A threads.
In any case, thanks so much for your help! It is much appreciated.
What if I have EL29? Can I still use the EL26 kernel?
Okay, a bit of an oversight on my part. The phone is completely updated so it has EL 29. Can I still flash the EL26 kernel with CWM without problems? I would assume yes, but I don't want any problems.

As long as you flash the kernel you need for the ROM u want, ur fine. For example, if you are on AOKP there is an fd26 kernel made just for it....after you load the ROM, you clear cache and dalvik then flash the kernel and boot.
If you want to flash any add-ons, you go back to el26 via Odin and flash; just ensure you flash a kernel with the same process as above before reboot (wipe cache/dalvik, kernel, reboot).
Link for AOSP/AOKP kernels is below

Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
@MoHi96...See my last post, same thing really. Kernel el26 should be used to flash, once ready to run your ROM your kernel should be flashed last to support it. GB kernels will not support Android 4.0 and up.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
I assume this should all be done in CWM with this order, for example: Flash Milestone 5. Wipe then choose the EL26 kernel and flash?

Try Q&A next time bud...Now that we have that out of the way, just use Odin or Mobile Odin to flash one of the repacked kernels w/CWM. The button combo will then work.

ROM Manager works fine for me, including booting to a CWM recovery that is not the same as the one packed with the kernel.
As for the OP, easiest thing to do to get CWM is to flash a stock kernel that has been repacked with CWM which you will need to do through ODIN.
rom manager works, but not with a stock kernel, must have a kernel with CWM or variant recovery.. and it only fakeflashes not actual flash the recovery..

What is is about the stock recovery that prevents properly booting to the version of CWM installed by ROM Manager? Does it not support the redirection Koush? I know his version actually installs CWM to somewhere besides the kernel partition.

rommanager doesnt install a recovery at all, it fakeflashes recovery, so you have to have a cwm compatible recovery first anyway..
Can someone explain how to install custom kernel want to instal Ktoonz Kernel running free gs3 rom V 2.O can it be installed via Aroma installer.
Don't know. But you have not searched at all .....
You can install it by downliading the zip file then going into recovery and flashing it. Then wipe cache dalvik and fix permissions then reboot and you are done .

If I flash a kernel it's usually after the Rom.
Think about it your going to flash a custom kernel, then flash a Rom (most come with a preinstalled kernel). That'll over write your custom kernel.
Like its been said make sure your doing tw to tw and aosp to aosp.

You have things a bit mixed up. If you are doing a ROM and Kernel the ROM should go first.
From your Custom Recovery (rooted phone with Clockwork Mod recovery or TWRP)
Flash the ROM
Then the Kernel
Make sure to always clear both Dalvik-Cache and Cache after a ROM or Kernel flash
Then restart
When clearing the Dalvik-Cache and Cache your phone will take extra time on the first boot, and on my Sprint TW SGS3 4.1.1 Stock+Root it says "optimizing Apps" on the first reboot after having the Caches cleared.
Big thing you had mixed up was flashing the ROM after the kernel.. That will just overwrite the Kernel you wanted to do *Grin*..
As others mentioned, make sure you Keep TW (TouchWiz) with TW, and AOSP (AOKP) with AOSP (CM10/10.1) for the ROM and Kernel's to match or you will have issues (boot loops, random crashes, and other mixed results).
I'm using ktoonz kernel right now, was using AGAT kernel prior, both have been very nice.
Happy Flashing
Frre GS3 is TW JB rom. I was asking when to flash beacause I did flash after rom. Do I have to flash immediately after ROM is installed??? Trying it now will report back results thanks to all for thei input

No, you don't have to install the custom kernel right after flashing the ROM, you _could_ flash FreeGS3 v2 (for example), and run it for a while and then reboot into recovery whenever you feel like trying a different kernel and flash say AGAT kernel, wipe the Dalvik-Cache and Cache, then restart to give the new kernel a try.
Fun times!
Finally it worked dont know what I was doing wrong??? But thanks to all

Hey guys, I just broke my galaxy nexus (fell in the pool) and a buddy gave me his old E4GT to use.
I did my research around this forum and found a ton of different things.
What I've done so far:
Wiped the phone and rooted using odin for FL24 which is the stock ICS build on the phone.
What I want to do:
Flash CWM recovery
Flash a Stable rom
I've been reading about a few unstable kernel issues around the forum and I'm a bit confused.
I would really appreciate the help with this Thanks
You should know that in order to flash a ROM, you need to flash a safe gb kernel, EL29 directboot or EL26 CWM,do you know about the emmc bug?
Since I dont see a specific question, check this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953783

There are a ton of really stable builds in android development, and most have cwm built in. Jellyverse is a kick a** ROM, but doesn't have cwm, but it's easy enough to flash that after you load the ROM. Good luck.

Well if you're looking for a stable ICS ROM, I can definately recommend the Blue Kuban FL24/FI27 ROM. All you need to do is boot into a safe kernel (http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/tools.html), then boot into it (MAKE SURE YOU ARE ROOTED AND HAVE FILES ON YOUR PHONE, FAILURE TO DO SO WILL PUT YOU IN BOOTLOOP), then wipe data/factory reset, and then flash the rom (if you want the Blu Kuban ROM, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625535). And you should be :good: to go.

*Note* After you flash the rom using the EL29 Directboot (which is needed to be flashed either through Desktop Odin or Mobile Odin), the ROM will automatically install a safe recovery after the ROM flash.

Re-post you're question in the Q and A section at the top of the page.. and I will be happy to help you get cwm recovery and explain flashing custom roms ( in general )
One click exe's are odin style tools you can use to flash a kernel, rom, recovery, etc, without needing to use the full odin tool. All you need to do, is boot your phone into download mode, connect the phone into your computer, and hit the volume up button. After those steps are complete, you can click "start" in the one click exe. It will flash the file for you, without requiring you to make sure that the proper options are checked in an odin tool.

The issue may be because the different roms you mention use different recoveries. Try this method:
1. Click restore for whatever rom you want to restore
2. Once it restores, don't reboot phone yet
3. Click the advanced tab
4. Choose reboot recovery ( this installs the correct recovery for the rom you want to restore)
5. Restore desired Rom once again after recovery boot ( this time it will allow rom to be restored on proper recovery)
6. Reboot phone
Edit: Also, you will need to reflash correct modem after install. This can be done after you restore rom, prior to rebooting phone
So I tried what u mentioned above,still didn't work. It won't flash any ROM that is jelly bean. Only gingerbread or ICS. I read somewhere that my recovery needs to be updated so I tried that also and still no cigar for flashing jelly bean.

Do you have insurance? Try to flash the ICS no root one click then try to upgrade via OTA or Kies... If that doesn't work take it in and say you want a new device cuz you can't use JB.
Tried stock no root restore sprint and vm and all it does is boot loop as it does with any jelly bean rom. There's gotta be a way to fix it with out having to get a new phone.

u need to wipe cache partition and wipe dalvik cache then run format script flash rom and then modem and then reboot

If you mean DU 4.3..
Make sure first you're on an ICS modem...if not. Flash it in recovery on the tw ROM you're on now so you can update prl/profile..If you need a cwm recovery for the stock ROM you're on..Look in rwilco12 repo for a custom kernel with cwm for you're build..
This is how I flashed it..
Boot to cwm on current ROM...
Wipe data,cache,dalvik cache and format system
Flash DU 4.3...wait
When it's done...Don't Reboot..Go to advanced and pick reboot recovery
When new recovery comes up....do the wipes again
Now flash DU 4.3 again
Reboot when its done..
Let it settle for a few ...
Boot to cwm
Flash gapps...reboot..
Enjoy...:good:
Thanks. I'll give it a try when I have time in the near future.
The issue that I'm having is that recovery won't flash anything and just gives me an error every time. Is there a way to upgrade the recovery without switching modems?
Mobile Odin, PC Odin... You probably have the stock kernel, which won't flash anything.

What modem are you using? That might be your issue.

I've tried different scenarios of installing a different Virgin Mobile modems after doing a full wipe/cash/etc. I've also tried doing a stock install of JB (after trying a stock VM ICS) before i wiped and installed DU 4.3. I read somewhere that 3G and 4G for Virgin doesn't work on the new DU 4.3.
