[Q] Installing MIUI? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I seen that you have to flash EL26 Kernel before installing... My phone is EL29 so do I still flash the EL29 kernel that comes with MIUI? or which kernel do I flash? and I'm currently using Cyanogenmod ICS, is it safe to flash over that? I'm still new to this flashing process and I don't want to mess anything up! It's a lot more difficult than on HTC phones

To be safe just flash it. Also yes it is safe just MAKE SURE you wipe your data and wipe your cache. Also make sure you have a backup. Do that and you should be good to go.

[Q] ICS Recovery/Kernel mix match

We all know by now that trying to flash a ICS rom through an ICS recovery is a pretty quick way to brick your phone. The preferred way of going to ICS (At least AOSP based roms) is to go back to stock EL 26/9 CMW recovery and flash away.
Once you're on ICS, do you Odin a new recovery? EL26/9 or the latest kernel recovery combo?
The recovery and kernels are baked in together so there doesn't appear to be a way to use an older recovery with a newer kernel. (Correct me if I'm wrong).
Is anyone using the FC22 Rogue recovery? Is it safe for backup/restores at least?

If you were told not to install with it do you think you should restore with it... best thing is to not use a ics recovery for anything..don't even boot into it...they have bricked
Phones by doing multiple things..be safe and Odin a GB kernel boot into recovery and backup there and keep a ics kernel ...you can restore the backup of ics from GB and then flash the ics kernel back and then boot.

I have no idea how they function. That's why I asked. The process to flash a zip could be completely different than the process to restore. One could be totally capable while the other is not. I can't verify that the restore process is the same as the flash process or not. Can you?

It is basically saving your setup with everything like a ROM ... You can take a backup and make a ROM out of it easily ...it's just like flashing a ROM....but mostly it's the fact that Samsung moved the data partition just a little and if you wipe data on a ics it seems to damage the partition physically somehow because even a jtag write will not work .
I would advise anyone messing with ics to have insurance right now these are extremely experimental and can brick from multiple things . Be safe

[Q] AOKP Build 32 ICS 4.0.4 ISSUE

Hey all can't post in the rom's thread so here will have to do hope someone can answer this.
Got the rom working fine. The issue is A.) I lose CMW
why? and is there a guide for installing cmw standalone without flashing a kernel?
B.) gapps don't appear even though i def flashed them as OP said to.
Permutations tried so far:
- OP verbatim
- OP + F10AOKP kernal as recommended in OP
Thanks to any and all
using cwm with an ics kernel has been causing bricks. It happened to me once already had the have best buy replace my phone. Most devs aren't packing cwm with ics kernels for the time being this may change but for now its safer this way. When I need to flash something I use mobile Odin to flash back to el26 then I wipe cache flash what I need then flash an aosp kernel : ) and boot

Thanks for clearing that up for me! Also I figured out my gapps issue some trial and error led me to follow CM9's gapps link and that did the trick.
you lose your recovery because of two related reasons:
1) on this device (not sure if it applies to all samsung devices, though i think it does apply to most), kernel and recovery are packaged together and therefore always flashed at the same time. when you flash a kernel, you always lose whatever recovery you had before.
1.1) since you flashed aokp, which includes a kernel, you therefore lost your recovery because of reason 1. no big. next time you need to flash something over AOKP or make a nandroid, just odin el26 kernel which includes cwm (search for it, not gonna link it), and do your thing. just remember to reflash the ROM before rebooting cuz el26 is a gb kernel which wont work with aokp (because it's ICS).
Also you should read the first couple post in the thread....it explains what is what with the ROM and that it doesn't have cwm ...etc

Quick Question

So if i want to try an ICS rom. I just wipe a whole bunch of times then flash?
And if I want to go back I just Odin EL29 again? And wipe a bunch and then flash GB?

It really depends on the ROM you are flashing but in essence, yes that should cover you in most cases.
Once you've selected a specific ROM I'd recommend looking at the detailed instructions that are almost always in the OP.
To get back to GB I'd just use one of sfhub's one-click options.
If you have additional questions let me know, I've flashed just about every ICS ROM out there now.
Personal recommendation? Any of Team Nocturnal's ROMs kick butt!
Personally I only use el26 with official cwm to go back to gb. I just mobile odin the kernel and wipe data/factory reset, wipe cache/dalvick and flash rom. It is the safest recovery to use. El29 has rogue repack which can brick your phone when coming from ics. Ne safe and only use el26 with cwm.

OK sweet. Thanks guys. Just don't want to brick. I've already flashed a bunch of gb roms, I wanna try ics now.
Also, all ICS kernels with cwm are rogue repacks. They can flash roms,but are not recommended. Just mobile odin ro he el26 I posted above to switch between roms to be safe.
Edit: when you mobile odin el26 on an ics recovery as soon as screen goes off hold power+volume up to go to recovery as ics roms won't boot up with gb kernels.

Going from aokp to stock f118

So my question is this, but I don't play with this phone too much last Time I did I flashed aokp build 38 in the instructions it made me flash a modem/kernel thru Oden or it wouldn't work. I want to go to one of the stock f118 roms but there is nothing in the instructions on flashing a different kernel or anything, but so my question is all I have to do is flash thru recovery...? Cause I remember one time I tried to just flash a touchwiz rom and it wouldn't boot so I had to restore it back to aokp I don't want to do that again can anyone point me in the right direction?
Sent from my Nexus 7 using Tapatalk 2
Best method:
Odin or mobile Odin el26 safe cwm kernel/recovery
Wipe & install whatever rom you want
Modem is totally separate and won't change unless you flash another
Before you boot ur new rom, flash whatever kernel you're going to use.....if the rom comes with one, and most do, ur set...but if you want a different one just wipe cache/dalvik and flash the kernel before you boot in the same flash session as your rom
Example:el26/wipe/flash rom/flash gapps if using an aosp rom/wipe cache & dalvik/flash kernel/reboot

If you want to flash TW based ROMS you can use AGATs recovery, if you want to go back to AOSP, AOKP, CM you need to flash chris41g CWM EL26 recovery and go from there

[Q] Confused On How To Install A Recovery

I have been looking around for about an hour or two trying to find a solid tutorial on how to install a custom recovery to install new Roms. I flashed my phone onto Virgin Mobile on FH13. It seems to me that there is more than meets the eye to installing a recovery on this phone. I really don't want to mess anything up at all. Could anyone guide me the right way as to how I can get CWM on my phone? I appreciate any help you can give me. Thanks!
Recovery is packed into the kernel on this phone. Flash a kernel tar through ODIN if you want, it will trigger the yellow triangle though. If your already rooted you could use Mobile ODIN. If you already have some form of custom recovery and are just trying to switch up you can flash the kernel zip in recovery.
rwilco has pretty much every kernel for every purpose but since your on stock you will either want a repacked stock or custom tw kernel - http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com/?dir=Kernels/Recovery Kernels/ICS
If your unfamiliar then keep asking questions. Our phone has a bug in its eMMC firmware triggered during format operations on the stock kernel as of Android 4.0. The specifics are detailed but all you really need to know is grab a kernel with a safe recovery, or even going as far as AGAT's custom kernel which has more work around in place to prevent a factory reset or rom install from turning your phone into a super brick.

Also new to the e4gt, im currently rooted on fh13.
say i want to flash paranoidandroid, which kernel (which includes recovery?) would you recommend?
also this is either flashed from odin (pc) or can be done through mobile odin?
then once kernel is flashed, i can then reboot into recovery, wipe and flash rom/gapps?
sorry for all the questions, just want to make sure!

My phone already has root. Everything else is stock. 4.0.4, build FH13, with no custom recoveries.
I don't understand what you mean in your second paragraph with "repacked stock" or "custom tw kernel".
I am completely lost as to where I should be going. My plan is to install this rom: http://goo.im/devs/Shabbypenguin/E4GT-Nightlies
How would I go around to getting this on my phone?
Also, what about this rom: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1810315
I am not sure which rom runs the fastest and most efficient. There are so many kernels for so many things, I have absolutely no idea which kernel to flash and how to flash it.
EDIT: So I have done some more reading up and I THINK I can starting to understand some of it. I assume the steps are to:
1. Install Mobile Odin Lite on my phone.
2. Flash the EL26 kernel on Odin Lite. Link to kernel: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1662295 (first kernel on the page)
3. This part I am kinda lost. Not sure if that kernel installed a new recovery or not. I assume I just reboot and go into recovery.
4. Nandroid a backup of my ICS stock that is on now? Can I even go back to this stock backup after putting on a new Rom? Which kernel would I need to install backup of stock?
5. Wipe data, dalvic, and install new Rom using instruction it came with. My problem is I want to run this Rom: http://goo.im/devs/Shabbypenguin/E4GT-Nightlies and it has no instructions. I assume you just wipe data and dalvic?
6. flash Rom, then flash Gapp? It doesn't have a link for any of the Gapps, so either I have to find a link to download Gapp or that rom already comes with it? Not sure.
7. Reboot into new Rom? Not sure if I missed a step or not.
Another question I have is with the kernels. Can I just leave it on the EL26 kernel for daily use of the phone? Say I want to install maybe cm10 next, do I just keep it on EL26?
Sorry for the spam of questions. I like to be 100% certain.
Best bet if your trying to install CM9 is to go to the EL26 CWM kernel as all of the AOSP rom instructions dictate. Using the EL26 kernel means your phone will only boot to Download and Recovery as it will only boot gingerbread roms.
Download the nightly you want to the device and then flash the EL26 CWM kernel in Mobile ODIN. After its all over with you might need to battery pull if you messed up booting into recovery and then boot into recovery (power + vol up). Install the rom. Install gapps. Wipe cache/dalvik but as I will recommend below you should just backup everything and a full wipe.
You can nandroid if you want but it will be making a copy of the ICS rom you have with the EL26 kernel on it so it is literally a restore to the point your starting from not where you were just before that. Its still a good idea if your afraid of losing things. I would use Super Backup from the market to backup your Contacts, Call Logs and MMS. Wipe cache and dalvik and all that. But realisticly you should backup your apps and data if you have Titanium Backup and start fresh just factory reset after your on CM9. Restore your apps with data (no system data) after that. A clean install will present the least of issues, even the Samsung updates from one rom to another are not without issues.
You can not boot anything but gingerbread with EL26 and once you install a rom you will be on the kernel with that rom. So you will have a Linux 3 android kernel with cwm 6 if you go with a CM9 nightly. From there you can flash the next nightly or the next beta etc. Older stuff will not flash from your new setup as AOSP roms have switched to a new device name in the build.prop.
As far as gapps here it is - http://goo.im/gapps/gapps-ics-20120429-signed.zip and don't forget to put this on the device ahead of time or you will have to mount usb and transfer using the pc in recovery.

Ah, I read it twice and now it makes more sense. I have a pretty good idea of what to do now.
Put rom and gapp on phone, install EL26, backup, full wipe, flash rom and gapp, rom will install new kernel for me, then just reboot.
Last question, I just want to make sure. What exactly is a full wipe on this phone. I have done plenty of full wipes on the evo 4g. I am just asking because I hear some people have problems when they do a full wipe.
I really appreciate your help. Thank you!
Sorry if I jumbled everything together in my post by the I was running out the door. But this Hurricanne has stopped that and I regret not taking my time.
Well what I mean is a factory reset which formats /Cache and /Data. When you install the rom its going to format /System prior to writing the new firmware/rom. /Data has all your user apps, their data and your information etc. This does not wipe the Internal SD or the External SD though at times a line saying it was does come up in CWM.
Just don't do a Factory reset on the stock kernel you are on now, its fine on EL26 its fine on the kernels that come with the CM9 nightlies. Super Backup apparently does app's now too. I have never used it since I have Titanium Backup Pro but figured its also worth mentioning.
A note on turning back. As I said before if you flash the EL26 CWM kernel you wont be able to boot the ICS rom installed on the phone. At that point to go back instead of forward you can flash the FH13 kernel in desktop ODIN or the zip in CWM and you will have the FH13 kernel instead of EL26 and be back where you were. But once you flash the EL26 CWM kernel your goal at that point is flashing your rom of choice in CWM and not things like booting the phone.
You should be "okay" coming from a dirty install just wiping cache. But you may never know if a problem your having is the rom or some left over data unless you go clean and factory reset. Its a choice and its also a choice you can make later as you can always reset later. I would back up anything important first before doing any of this. Not so much a worry about bricking, as just about any normal situation will be recoverable, but more so to the point of if you have to wipe the phone and start from scratch.

That clarified a lot, thanks.
So I did it all. I did a factory reset from the new kernel. did dalvic also. I installed the new rom and gapp. Problem is that once I reboot, it shows the Galaxy SII screen, then goes into a black screen. I can't turn it back on again, so I remove the battery and it can restart. Does the same thing though. I followed your instruction and http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/cm9-install-guide.html
What did I do wrong? I am worried I messed up my phone completely.
EDIT: So I went back into recovery and it was now a new version of CWM. I did everything over again; factory reset, cache, dalvic, and it is doing the same thing. Boots up "Galaxy SII" screen, then a black screen. It seems to still be on in the black screen seeing that it doesn't "turn" on again. I can hold if for 15 second or so for it to reset and does the same thing. Why is there a black screen?
Sorry for not checking back. Your probably freaking right now lol but relax your at a good point everything is fine.
Either a bad download or the nightly you went with happens to be a baddy. I am still on 10/20 I was gonna flash 10/28 today but the weather is screwing with me. goo.im seems pretty slow today.
Download another, battery pull and hold vol up + power until it hits recovery then go into mounts and mount usb storage hook a usb cable to the pc and copy over another build. I would say try 10/20 just because it works pretty good but that won't stop another bad download in which case you have to try try again.
Worst case from here we can just odin you back to stock rooted FH13 or your choice of other. Your phone is fine from what you have told me so far. I can upload one of the builds I have if you think ti would help any.

Phew! I was pretty positive that I could still get back to something working, just my paranoid self was getting tense. I got 10/28. I guess I will do 10/20. Do you know what the other updates have? I would hate to install something that isn't working its most efficient.
Again, thank you so much. You were of great help! Good luck with the weather issue. Hope you're safe!
I stopped following chris's experimentals so i am not sure what the most recent focuses have been. The Nightlies have whatever code was commited. They are built automatically and can range from very stable to not booting at all. I dont have any of the links on me but someone can get it to you. Reading commits is not exactly 100% user friendly especially if your not a developer. But they often have clues. I would follow the CM9 Beta thread and the CM9 User Support Threads - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1874374 and http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1720771
I used to DL nightlies from work over 3g or 4g all the time and would get a bad dl and end up in situations where even my experienced self felt like I couldn't fix it till I got home and always got the phone running within an hour without the assistance of a near by pc.
I am uploading 10/20 to my server just in case its in Chicago so if your away from the weather it should be unaffected for the most part. Glad its not in NY anymore.

Good evening all. I hope this is the right forum to post my question about recovery for my e4g touch. I recently rooted my phone and my phone is currently on the fi27 build. Is there a recovery i can put on there now to go ahead and start flashing ruins, or will i have to wait for qbkng77 to post his video on you tube on putting cwm recovery on fi27 rooted e4g touch? Thanks in advance for the help!

I assume you do the same thing as I did. Get the EL26 kernel and flash it with Mobile Odin. I would wait on someone else to confirm that though.
Another really quick question. I want to overclock my phone. I tried using setcpu and the overclocker it came with. It only goes to a max of 1200 but I know it can go higher. I am guessing I need another kernel. What kernel can I use?

You either need a kernel with built in over clock support(you'd see the CPU slider go up to 1400-1600 automatically if it was). Or a kernel that supports over locking in tegrak, which you "load over clock module" with in tegrak.
Both Kuban kernel and some of Agats kernels have built in support, mine you need to use tegrak as I have not added built in yet
You can get them all in rwilco's (awesome) kernel repository stickied in development
