I just installed the OTA ICS update this morning on my phone. After doing so, my phone lost its root access. Is there any way to get root again without reverting back to gingerbread?
I think you might be stuck without root...
I'll wait and see if someone has an alternative method of rooting this phone.

Download and run the SPH-D710.FF18_CL663858_ROOTED_NODATA-oc-sfx.exe
it will give you root back without changing anything else.
Download sfhub's FF18 + root now that it is confirmed to match OTA, put phone in download mode and flash from PC. Voila! OTA and root.
Thank you very much. I will try that.

you are all over it today. seen you post almost the same answer in three similer threads
If you start with a stock EL29 phone (non rooted), whats the best approach to take resulting in the smoothest best experience ? Is their a difference ?
1) EL29 -> OTA Update Zip -> Sfhub No Data + Root FF18
2) EL29 -> Sfhub No Data + Root FF18
3) EL29 -> OTA Update Zip -> Sfhub Reset Data + Root FF18
4) EL29 -> Sfhub Reset Data + Root FF18
Thanks !!

#1 and #2 would potentially cause issues if there was something lingering in /data. Depends how long you have had the phone, what apps you have installed, etc.
#1 and #3 are redundant as well, so you're down to #2 and #4.
If you want the "cleanest" installation #4 is the way to go. May require to reinstall apps and some data but at least you're on a clean slate.
really all you have to do is one click shub no data is that so hard

LOL, The No Data would be like the OTA, Both will cause some issues requiring data on some apps needing to be cleared. Like Swype. But no it isn't hard.
The FULL FF18 can be applied no matter what firmware you are on and nulls the need to do any wiping. Just backup your contacts, mms, call logs and if you have titanium backup backup the rest of your stuff too. Just apply.
It isn't hard, just trying to understand the complete picture and see what the realistic differences are..
Out of curiosity, how do you guys backup your contacts? I've always had the issue, where Google sync brings back lots of stuff and then a backup contact restore results in duplicates??

You can use AGATs FF18 kernel but I would double check with the rom dev as far as the updater binary being safe. I can only comment on flashing CM9 updates and wiping which are safe on safe kernels.

I had a rooted EL29 stock recovery yesterday morning. I then got the OTA update to ICS (FF18) but I found out today that I lost root. Since I am still on the stock recovery, is this going to work fine?
Flashing by Odin is still ok.

Is there a way to replace CWM with the stock recovery?
Also, is there a way to unroot?
I am currently on EC05 rooted with CWM purple but I'd like to unroot and remove CWM without having to reflash and spend hours reinstalling all my stuff.
Yes. I can't gve an exact guide right now, but you should delete superuser.apk and /system/xbin/su or /system/bin/su. Then find the stock recovery

I'd like to use the OTA GB whenever it arrives. I'm on stock EC05 except for root and CWM, so I think reflashing stock recovery should allow the OTA without losing my setup.
I refuse to have stock anything on my phone; I continue to wait patiently for a GB that is fully modded and hot rodded

I tried the above zip, but it caused my phone to hang on restarting; only odining something could get my phone back.
Like the above poster, all I have is a rooted stock EC03 (with no system apps removed whatsoever), and all I want is to update to EI22, either OTA or from the Google download, without losing my data. Does anyone know of another way to restore stock recovery to help make this possible?
Thanks much!
I wish I could do the same since I'm on stock rom + root. But since I'm already getting the OTA gingerbread prompt, I'm going to go ahead and try to ODIN to EC05 then upgrade to Gingerbread then root again.

That will certainly work. I did it and it worked fine. But I didn't want to lose my settings and data, and I'm not adept enough with Titanium Backup, so I didn't keep things that way. Still trying to find a way with keeping my settings/data...

Will that wipe your phone. I'm in the same boat & I don't want to lose everything again.
Pardon my ignorance but I'm still on stock rooted GB from sfhub original cwm flash. I have yet to take the plunge to ics because I don't want to flash to el26 to go to ics and all of this to prevent bricking my phone.* I thought I read once the official kernal is released this bug will not exist and this will not be necessary. I was just waiting for the official release to upgrade. It appears now that has / will be released today.
I have never used odin before but this looks like I don't have to worry about bricking my phone with it correct? I see that sfhub has a one click odin of FF18 with root. If I just want to upgrade I can just use the no data? If I want to start clean I guess I should factory reset then flash full data.?
My phone drives me insane with the phantom SMS bug that I still have.* Sometimes I have to reboot to find that I'm missing txt messages amd then the battery level just plunges. I also have a hard time getting a GPS lock. I'm hoping this update helps.

That is correct you can use the one-click to update and it's known to be safe. just don't unplug the cable until the phone reboots. also have you thought about upgrading your modem? there are flashable zips. I'm running the FF18 modem and its working better than the stock EL29 modem. I wanted to wait for the upgrade, but i went ahead and flashed an ICS rom yesterday.
Now that the source is released does this mean the emmc bug is to be removed and it will be safer to flash more ics / asop roms?

You can ODIN FF18 over anything on the phone. The No Data package will be just like the OTA except for root. But if you can stand to back some stuff up you will have a lot less trouble with a full wipe. OTA users themselves experience a minimum of a hassle and a maximum of hair pulling and doing no data will be the same. Easiest problem is needing to clear data for swype to get that to work but random reboots can be another issue if taking the OTA or doing a No Data odin from there to here.

Okay well I'm coming from calkulins 3.0 e4gt rom and debating if i want to go to ICS or wait it out. Not entirely sure at this point. Thought about it but I don't know. I'm running rogue kernel with FF18 modem. Its been okay battery sucks. What do you suggest about going to ICS?
I'm not happy with the ICS update. I've lost FoxFi and now Bluetooth isn't connecting to my car radio. I'd like go back to Gingerbread and not root so I can play nice with the security stuff at work. Would these be the ROMs I'd use. Additionally, I'd like to preserve my data if that's possible. Thanks for the help gang.

I couldn't get foxfi to work on ICS either. You have to use "Wi-Fi Tether" instead. There's a thread around here somewhere with the DL link and how to configure it properly.
Can't help you with bluetooth I'm afraid, never much had a problem myself.
As far as downgrading versions goes, I wouldn't recommend doing it with the preserve user data option. Tried it once myself, bugs everywhere, ended up doing factory reset. Backup your contacts, sms logs, and applications and you should be good.
Hope I helped

You have to wipe your phone completely if you want to go back to gingerbread. Unless you made a nandroid before you accepted the update.

He wants NO ROOT.
He wants to downgrade to Gingerbread NO ROOT.
[You need Samsung Drivers if you have Kies installed you have it already]
So first download this EK02 Full Restore NO ROOT One Click ODIN Use the reset user data version.
Double click the EK02 you downloaded it will extract the ODIN OC execute it (no admin necessary but if you want run it as admin)
Then Put you E4GT on Download Mode (Power off and then Vol Down+Power then Vol Up to confirm)
Then connect the usb cable and Start flashing.
The boot up and OTA Update to EL29 will be waiting for you on settings about phone update phone.
It will nag you to update to ff18. You can one click Odin el29, put gunslinger kernel/recovery on, flash the no notify of ics update, Odin regular recovery for el29, then unroot with autoroot. I could do all that in less time than it takes to stock flash ek02 then let the el29 ota download and install.
Is there a downgrade one click WITH root?

Several different options with the questions you're asking. Without knowing your end goal, it's a guessing game.
And I guess i should say - back up any data, files etc prior to making changes unless you don't care about losing what's on your phone. Sync your contacts, save your messages, etc, etc, etc.
You can use the rooted ff18 (reset data) and then use the autoroot package to unroot if you want to be on ICS and don't care about trace files or folders being left.
If you want to go back completely stock, no root, and clean up your storage - Use the EK02, Rest Data, One Click. Don't apply the OTA update to EL29 just yet, do a factory reset and option to format USB, restart and let the OTA process take you all the way to FF18.
Yes, either way, with one clicks, it is safe to do from FH13. Do NOT perform a factory reset until you're back on GB.

Hey,
Similar issue to OP but I'll be specific. I had FF18, not rooted, and used ODIN (for the first time I might add) to upgrade to FH13. Now I'm having issues and just want to revert to FF18. How can I accomplish this? I might add, I didn't get FF18 OTA, I went to qbking's instructions to update it manually. Easiest way to get back?
Thanks.

If you are just looking to go back quickly, and don't care if you have root or not, just use the FF18 Reset Data One Click from Sfhub. (Some say using the No Data within ICS to ICS isn't an issue, but I always reset data to avoid any issues that may arise..)
If you want to go back completely stock, no root, I'd recommend the post above yours starting back at EK02. Just the easiest in my mind, although others have different steps. Less user actions needed that way, just longer in the automatic process...

Takes me probably an hour for total reset. If I want the phone to be pure stock. I don't try to rush. Bad things happen then. And yes, its an incremental update process. Some people stop and don't chose the ff18 update and use the notification killer. (if you don't have a great connection, then this wouldn't be the ideal way.)
I would say that the one click would be the same regardless of current build. (I don't use cm builds) Its suggested to go into recovery and wipe all by some prior.
I usually pause on el29 and do a factory reset. That's just the way I do it.

From the limited amount of research I've done the zedomax method for rooted is no longer used? (Currently I get the yellow exclamation point at reboot).
What do I need to do (in lame mans terms) to get my phone back to normal?

Easiest way is to one click Odin. I'm not sure which your on. I'm assuming GB. So you can one click Odin to stock el29+ root. Or if you want one click Odin to FF18 or FH13 to upgrade to ICS. And if your on ICS you can use triangle away to get rid of yellow triangle on the splash screen.

Using ZedoMax kernel is your problem from the get go. Even Zedomax would have a good laugh at that. Its an OLD OLD kernel.
EG30 and EK02 can be rooted via usb with the zerg exploit and sfhubs auto root made that easy. Easiest way with EL29 or the newer ICS firmwares as well is just to flash a prerooted one click. But you can always odin a kernel with custom recovery and flash super user.

Use Heimdall to flash tars then. Grab the one for FH13 if you want the latest official ICS or EL29 if you want the last GB out. Sfhubs one click threads have a second post with the tars as for FH13 dunno how Garwynn and rwilco have their stuff arranged.

If so copy Calks rom onto your phone, if you don't still have it there.
Download the EL29 zip file to your phone from http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com...y Kernels/GB/Rogue Recovery/Stock Repacks/ZIP.
Instll that zip from recovery and reboot back into recovery.
Install Calks Rom again.
You should be fixed now.
If you prefer to go with FH13 (ICS):
Download the AGAT_v0.5.4.zip file to your phone from http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com...y Kernels/ICS/Agats Source Built Recovery/ZIP
Copy this file to your phone http://d-h.st/Txi
Install the FH13 Rom from recovery.
Instll the AGAT_v0.5.4.zip while still in recovery.
You should be fixed on FH13 now.
If you want the Modem you can download the FH13 modem zip from here and flash it from recovery. http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com/ModemSite/?dir=MODEMS/ICS/ZIP

Thanks for being my hero. Everything works (so far). And after some trial and error even the wireless tether works. Now if I could just get my iPad to link to my wifi I'd be golden...
Thanks again!

No problem. I am partial to the Sprint hotspot hack myself. In the dev section by rejulus22.

Bump.
Different issue:
1. I keep getting a FI27 Software Update reminder. I am able to clear it out of my notifications but 5-10 mins it's back again. It will interrupt whatever it is I am doing at the moment.
2. Is there a separate current radio I can download? My gps can never find my current location, rendering the turn by turn feature useless since I can't use it.
Any thoughts?
TIA

The link given earlier to download the modems contains the FI27 modem. You could flash that and it may get rid of the update reminder.

Use titanium backup freeze system updates. Then go to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik.
