(Q)Can I flash from ics to gb? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Ics to gb through mobile Odin by flashing el26? Or do I have to do it through my computer everytime by odining back to el29 which is what I usually do. Thanks!

Yea all you have to do is Odin/Mobile Odin the el26 cwm kernel and boot into recovery. Then flash whatever you want from there.

If I am on an ICS rom, would i have to do anything before using the mobile ODIN?

you can restore a nandroid backup from el26 but if you are restoring an ics rom you have to wipe cache and dalvik cache and flash an ics kernel after you restore you backup.

Flashing ics then flashing back to gb

So from my understanding if I were to use sbhub fe10 odin flash I wouldn't need el26 with cwm right ? And lets say that if I were to wanna flash back to gb then I would either use cwm el26 kernel or odin the el29 full restore right ? I feel like I'm missing something...thanks in advance guys
Nvm this thread...sorry about the post

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?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
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.

Did you try booting into recovery, wipe cache and dalvik, reboot, then try to update again?

Best way to go from CM9 nightly to Mijjaz Blend Goodness

Can i just use calks format all with the included recovery in the cm9 nightly? Then just install blend, or will i run into problems doing it this way? Any ideas would be helpful thanks.
If its chris41 safe CWM recovery you can. If not just mobile odin el26 kernel and flash from there

As long as you are on a safe kernel/ recovery whick blu kuban comes with kuban kernel is safe. You can wipe and flash to calks rom.

What??? Ok what kernel are you on? If you on a safe kernel your just adding extra steps.
If you want. Odin or mobile odin el29 direct boot kernel.
Then wipe everything (calkulin's format all zip)
Flash rom
Reboot
