[Q] ics to gb - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Ok. I tried blu kuban and now want to go back to gb. Have Odin plus roms but definitely want to tread carefully.
I am on el29 baseband which I then added rogue recovery and flashed to
Fd10 blu kuban rom
Fd26 kernel - which I am guessing installed with blu.
Now to go back....? Just use Odin and flash back? To el26? To el29? Does it matter?

Odin the el26 kernel and flash your gb rom of choice after doing a full wipe.

Been reading for a while now. Apparently, the baseband is the modem version. So I'm on el29 and downloaded a few of the newer ones. I am not sure however on flashing the kernel. Same method as modem? Gonna be using Odin for both.

Just Odin the el26 cwm kernel, calks format all and then flash a gb rom or do a restore from there.

Question on EK02?

So anyone that has flashed EG31 cannot flash anything from EK02 at the moment?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
yes. Just wait till the official release/leak.
You will be able to flash once we get an offiicial tar.

Kernel or ROM, yes. Modem, no
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
You cannot flash the ek02 MODEM update. You can flash the kernel and ROM. The easiest way to do that at this point is flash Calk's EK02 rom over in the dev section. This will give you everything except the modem.
Just to be clear, you are not waiting for the OTA. The full OTA has been extracted and posted. You are waiting for the tar, which comes around the time of the OTA usually. The tar is given to the Sprint technicians and one of them usually leaks it here. The OTA modifies files, it doesn't install a new modem or system, it modifies the one you have. if you don't have the files it is attempting to modify, the update fails.
Think of the OTA as a windows update and think of the tar as the windows installation cd.

F15 stock what should I use to flash to get cwm again

Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
What do you mean by can again???
I meant cwm based kernel I can't remover what I used on the other DC build I had stock
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
Well if you're looking just to get CWM you can flash Steady's latest the FC07 repack.
http://db.tt/QXBYSiX5
If you're wanting to use CWM to flash a ROM then you should probably use his FB21 (rev 2). There are some bugs Steady is working on and he suggests not using the latest ones for ROM flashing.

Try on a completely stock rom like one of sfhubs Odin in clicks. Or it could just be sprint for now.

Do i just mobile odin the el26/CWM Kernel and then flash shfubs el26 stock rom?

No go to his fe22 odin one click thread and use that to go to stock twiz. From there update prl/profile. Then you can go ahead and mobile Odin the el26 cwm kernel and ref lash to whatever rom.

I had that same problem on Frankenstein's last night. No matter what I tried they wouldn't update so I ended up going back to Calk's ROM. And I really liked Frankenstein's ROM and wish I could of stayed on it longer.

You can still flash a GB kernel even though you have a ICS ROM installed. It won't boot the phone completely(it'll freeze on the Samsung Galaxy SII screen on startup). But you can still get into recovery and download modes. That's the benefit right there. You don't need to flash all that though. Which ROM do you want to be on? The part about using Odin to go to FE22 and then go to EL26 has an extra step in it. You really don't need to flash the FE22 before going to EL26.

Ya some of them have CWM or a different custom recovery. What ROM is it that you want to install? What I mean is you don't need to flash to multiple other kernels/ROMs before eventually going to whichever ROM you want.
Go to the dev section and find sfhubs fe22 Odin one click and flash your phone with that. The reason you do this is so you will be on a stock rom where you can update prl and profile. After you do this, using Odin (with only auto reboot checked in top right corner), flash the el26 cwm kernel. Boot into recovery and from here you can flash back to Frankenstein or blazer whatever you want. You will need a computer.
So...
1. Fe22 Odin one click
2. Boot into fe22 stock rom and update prl/profile
3. Odin the el26 cwm kernel
4. Flash whatever new rom you want.

Doesn't need to be fe22, but needs to be stock touchwiz or close to so you can update prl/profile and that rom will let you do so. No problem, I'm ways here to help.

Question for flashing ICS on EL29

I just rooted my ET4G and I am wanting to install CM9 but i am sort of comfused. Am I still supposed to flash EL26 kernel via odin before I do!? Or do I just straight download and flash ROM + Gapps? With this kernel/recovery... I installed team rouge CWM that the guide shows any help thatnks!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Yes odin/mobile odin to el26+cwm. El29 has rogue repack recovery which can brick when flashing to or from ICS. EL26+cwm was the last kernel to have official cwm recovery.
Here's a link to stockcwm-el26.tar.md5: http://db.tt/0QJkleJR

Yes, but when you flash a new rom the kernel is replaced with whatever kernel is included in the rom. So you will have to reflash the el26cwm kernel every time before switching to a new rom. ICS roms won't boot with the kernel, so when switching from ICS to ICS or ICS to GB you will have to hold power+volume up as soon as phone starts to reboot to get into recovery.
Sent on HyDrA with S Voice using Tapatalk 2
I would also suggest having the rom/gapps/kernel you want to flash already downloaded and on your phone before going to el26cwm kernel once your on any ICS ROM.

Agat has a repacked kernel with custom recovery/cwm that works. Look for the thread in the dev section and FOLLOW THE INSTALL GUIDE. Oh and read through the whole thread too. I installed from the external sd card via mobile odin and had no issues what so ever

many have said to use this AGAT FI27 Kernel from source which has CWM
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1767421
latest is version 0.6.8 . theres a tar and zip file use the tar for Odin. You could mobile odin as well
But you should do what you want to do in recovery and then either Odin or Flash in that recovery STOCK Kernel FK23 for best results.
