Ics to gb - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Is this possible because i m not sure if I'm understanding this whole from thing with this phone. Have been reading up for few days and confuse all because of this emmc thing. I am coming from the evo and have done everything I could change and became great at doing whatever I wanted to it but now I feel I'm one foot in the door on this phone and more I read the more the door is slamming on my foot.
I'm having bad battery drain on cw9 ics though I love the from but when I rooted my phone and kept stock gb I was surprised and liked the battery drain more than my evo.
So is it possible to go back. From what I read I'm getting mixed opinions about reversing back. Thanks

Either use sfhubs el29 Odin one click or just Odin the el26 cwm kernel, calks format all, then flash a gb rom and you're good.

Not to hijack the thread but I have a question. I just rooted my phone and flashed CWM just like qbkings77 video. If I want to put Blu Kaban on my phone I just flash it like in qbkings77 video right? I should have no issues since I'm freshly rooted. Now if for some reason I have to go back to GB I can just use sfhubs one click odin EL29 that I used when I first rooted my phone right? I'm super paranoid about this. Also how do I know if I'm using a GB recovery and not an ICS recovery?

Since it plays right into the OP I think its not really a hijack... To answer both questions, the el29 one click that was suggested above is both the easy and safe method.

Best Recommended Rom/Kernel For The Epic 4G Touch?

I have rooted phones in the past and loved it. Looking to root my new galaxy s2 epic 4g touch for sprint. Would like to get the best and easiest instructions as well as the best rom/kernel combination. Would like something that is stable and doesn't have too many bugs. Please help yall!

Best rom, by far is strongsteves odexed. Chris's EL26kernel is baked in: (I have 2 E4GT's. One is always running strongsteve)

Use sfhubs one touch root (look in the devs section). This will get you up and rooted, then choose option c to install a custom recovery. As far as a ROM solution, I am going to have to respectfully disagree with the previous post. Calk's e4gt ROM, ver 2.8.1. Seems to be the most stable and popular ROM around here. That is where I would start.

I second that. I prefer calk's with the desperado kernel.
I will have to respectfully disagree with the last two posts. This isn't a popularity contest, it's about the most reliable rom. Have either of you tried strongsteves? I'm running calks latest on my 2nd E4GT. Odex plainly runs smoother without any tweaks. The battery life is far better as well. Don't take what I'm saying the wrong way. I like calks and always have. That being said, strongsteve is just all around a better rom

+1 on Blazer.
3.8 should be out today.
Everyone will have a different opinion on roms etc, so I'll try to just state facts.
Calk's rom is very nice. In fact a lot of roms are created using his as a base. That speaks for itself. He's also very responsive, concise, and very well respected.
The same can be said about PhantomHacker's roms. He has his own Starburst rom - very oem'ish, one of the first custom roms out (but I think Unnamed has taken the lead in this category) and also the Blazer series roms (based off of Calks rom too)
Again, he's very responsive, well respected, and writes well.
That being said, there are many other Super custom roms, with crazy fonts, icons, etc. Too crazy for myself.
StrongSteve's rom should be solid too.
Bottom line, make a backup of something solid, and try out anything you find appealing. Check out the screenshots in the OP for many of them. Don't be scared. Ask Questions- but read the threads first. If you just don't like one, go back to the backup I was talking about.
Welcome buddy!!!! Have fun and be nice to everyone. (not that you weren't)
I've tried a few different ROMS but Blazer has been solid for me and my use..and I understand with the newest update the battery is suppose to be better but you should try them out and see what works for you and your use of the phone.

What do you mean it is not cwm recovery? Then what is it?
Listen, get the autoroot kit, follow instructions and choose option c and then option e. You should now have ek02 rom/kernel with cwm. Then reboot into cwm recovery by holding the volume up button and the power button at the same time. From there, flash whatever rom you want.
I'm on EL29 and it didn't work, my phone never connected with the auto root, I tried it several times. The only option for EL29 is L or M and I tried L with the latest auto root and it said it would connect, so I tried the other and that at least got me to the other screen, but it never connected

[Q] FF18 ICS back to GB

I've been running the FF18 ICS leak for weeks now. I used SFHUBs one click method. My battery life hasn't been the best so was thinking about just going back to stock GB with root. I've read about using the EL26 one click. Is this the best method or is EL29 okay? I was considering taking my phone into Sprint for a replacement due to my battery life not being the best even when I was on GB. Thanks for your time.
EL29 one click. EL26 is the kernel people go back to for flashing ics roms or flashing from ics to gb. Full odin flashes are safe regardless you will be overwriting everything, this is unlike flashing from cwm in this instance.
Thanks Rain.

Typically Its safe to go to EL26 and then back upto EL29 if thats what you want.
Dont know if you are rooted or not, there are couple tweaked EL29 ROMs out there that have the best battery and performance.
I hear you, that thought has crossed my mind as I have tried several FF18 custom ROMs. I am now on Universe FF18 ROM and I am really happy with it. Just my two cents.
I left ICS f for the same reason. I use the EL29 with clockwork auto boot tar in mobile Odin. Works well. you right into recovery to flash GB or ICS. EL26 seems to be the method most use

If your using desktop ODIN you can go straight to EL29. There is zero point to going to an earlier version if all your going to do is flash EL29 anyways. However without a desktop present that is of course not an option.
You should use EL26 if your going back to GB without ODIN. As always if your going to another ICS rom you should use EL26 CWM or a safe ics kernel when available.
Full ODIN tars can be applied over any version safely. Pre rooted one clicks are included just be sure to use the full version never do a no data going backwards, but if u do just factory reset (of on gingerbread).

E4GT Jelly Bean?

I understand the E4GT just got ICS, and, according to many people, it is filled with bugs. But would making an Android 4.1 Jelly Bean ROM be too terribly hard? As I understand, the reason making the ICS ROMs was so difficult was because it was a massive upgrade that completely skipped one step in between. Hence why the update took so long in the first place. But since Jelly Bean is just a few enhancements over ICS, would it be difficult to port a Jelly Bean build over to the E4GT? Just a thought I had jumbling around in the ol' noodle lol Thank you for any answers or responses

To correct your understanding, ICS ROMs (as in TouchWiz) weren't difficult to make at all. It was ROMS like AOKP, CM9, etc that were more difficult. It was mainly due to not having kernel source for ICS. There are already some developers working on porting Jelly Bean over, you'll just have to wait a little bit more.

My battery life has seemed extensively better than with el29. That's not to say I didn't have satisfactory battery life prior to ff18. I seem to get maybe 12 or 13 hours out of ff18 whereas I would only get 10 or so with el29. Then again, I'm also constantly tweaking my running tasks and such so my battery life generally is much longer than many of my friends lol but yes I have seen some major improvements all across the board with ICS, as well as some bugs here and there.

I manually updated to ff18 from the post by sfhub including what he said was the exact same build as the OTA update. The process used odin to flash the build onto my phone. Upon recieving the update, after a day of use I had some debilitating lag and hanging all over the place. So I was curious as to what wiping the cache and such would do. I went into the stock recovery (not CWM) and did a wipe data/factory reset, then wipe dalvik cache, then I did a reboot from stock recovery. Since then, the only bugs I have noticed are the task manager aesthetic bug, and a few hang ups here and there. However, battery life hasn't been an issue, I haven't had issues with wifi or force closing, and overall it has been an enjoyable experience. I still use the ff18 build daily.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Don't do a factory reset with the stock recovery. That bricked a lot of phones. Even the OTA FF18 stock kernel was released with this bug. Use one of Agat63's new kernels or Calkulins format all zip. No bricks reported with either of those methods.
ICS Battery life.
I haven't tried factory reseting or wiping cache, but I know personally my battery life went to $hit when I tried any and all ICS leaks. I get far superior battery life out of el29 gingerbread with MIUI on my S2. Only way I think I'll update to ICS is if Jellybean comes out to put over top of it.
For what it's worth, when I first rooted my E4GT back in May I had terrible battery life as well. It has come a long way. There are lots of ROM's to choose from but the Blu Kuban (you have to enjoy the theme) has been excellent with battery life. I had 24 hrs yesterday with email, voice, some messaging and web. Attached is a screen shot showing what I have as of now. Of course there are apps that drain the phone but they did that on GB as well. I have not regretted ICS at all.

I'm not calling you a liar by any means, but I've done it twice now with no ill effects. It is completely possible though and if so I am lucky to have not bricked my phone. All I know is after I did it the hang ups and such from ff18 lessened significantly. Thank you for the warning though.

I dont get how you all are having issues with ICS Ive used ROMs from Venum, and other members of Team Venum. Using Dazed's Wicked Sensation 1.5 now. Great battery life, plenty fast for me. I did change the Kernel and modem to FF02 though. seems to work best for my phone. Ive used Blend, Blu Kuban, Anakonda, Boa, ICE, AOKP, CM9, Frankenstein's ego. Never had an issue with any of them. Well... except for not flashing AOKP right a couple times. Got it figured out fairly quickly Even running Placebo tweaks and havent had issues at all. One thing or another may not work on one ROM or another. but always found a work around for them. Im just learning all this stuff though. Havent really gotten in to the meat an potatos of it all yet. But Im learning.
Anyways... long answer just to say I Love ICS. Cant wait to try Jellybean.

To diagnose, flash back to stock GB27 or if you want root, flash back to stock rooted GB27.
After that, install all your apps like normal and wait a few days to see it battery life gets any better.
If it doesn't, I assume you have a bad battery. I know from experience. My stock samsung battery died even faster than that on all roms I tried and finally I had to replace it.
Let me know what happens! Good luck!

Look under original development. Revolt ROM has the Blasphemy kernel built in.

Chrome wouldnt let me download Revolt, said it was malicous (Hasnt done it for any other rom) but might just be my chrome being difficult. Anything FLxx based was giving me crap for battery life at best. I test with GB as earlier suggested and that was fine. Right now im running The Blu Kuban with the EL29 baseband, and thats been treating me good. I can easily pull a days usage on it.
Now i have a question. The Blu Kuban is 4.0.4 and its thread says its FL24 based. Why then did EL29 baseband from the GB Rom i had previously stick??
