The new safe clockworkmod recovery - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

if I am on an ics rom, I am currently on the blue kuban. And I am running the safe clockworkmod can I nandroid back to gingerbread?

You can. But even tho it is safe per say. I've never tired it. I would use the EL26 direct boot kernel then restore your GB nandroid

Is the direct boot kernel in the kernel repository?

Yes it is. I can't link atm I'm on my phone. The new agat kernel does have the command line that causes the bricks disabled. But like I said I haven't tried it yet so that's why I suggested you use the direct boot kernel

I already have the new safe cwm kernel installed. With the safe binaries.

Then you should be good to go. (and same here. Flashed it as soon as it came out)

I safely just flashed back to gingerbread, from blue cuban. and I even nandroided back after a full wipe. PERFECT!

Both it and Agat's worked fine for me. Have flashed back and forth many times using each kernel.

Good to know that this can be done safely.
I'm thinking about switching back to Calkulin's GB 3.0 b/c Kakaotalk keeps on crashing on the Blu Kuban.

I had no mms or internet on Blu Kuban...Not 100 % if it was rom- but when I went back to Blend 3.0 GB - everything was fine. Now on Goodness ICS- no issues at all.(edit- mms send menu has gray on black menu-but works despite hard to see until colors fixed) But anyway- where did you find this cwm version? just an update on Google play mkt or elsewhere? It would be nice to have for future purposes..

Need help getting a Epic to run smooth......

So I rooted my boys epic and installed the ACS Frozen rom, everything seemed to be fast as hell for about a week but all the stock rom lag has returned..... so my question is what kinda setup are you guys using to keep a very smooth and fully functional setup going? I seed you don't have any AOSP roms that seem to be functioning at this time so what can I do to get this thing running like an AOSP rom? Thanks guys!

Ok, right after flashing the ROM did you flash the journal on zip? Also, are you/he rebooting once a day. If yes to both, try booting to recovery and wipe Cache partition and Dalvik cacke 3x and reboot.

Journal on zip ensures stability in case your battery dies or you drop the phone and the battery pops out. You can get bombarded with force closes or data corruption. Usually lag can occur from the cache filling up. That's why I recommended wiping it. Here is the journal on zip. Just boot to recovery and flash. You might as well wipe the cache and Dalvik to see if that fixes the lag also. So, wipe those and flash this zip...

If you are on SRF 1.2 with journal on and a Genocide kernel, you are using a really good Froyo setup. You can always grab the ACS Updater app from the Market and try one of the many good themes. The Gingerbread ROMs are all based off of the leak as we don't have the official yet but many people are having good results. Oh, almost forgot....there is a flashable add on Hotspot hack so you can use the Hotspot for free!!! it is in the Development section. Make sure you use the one specifically for SRF though

Other than that this rom is refreshing

I'm assuming from reading the original post, it says it has Kobridge's init.d scripts baked in, so the KERNAL included in the ROM must already have that ability for those to work...
Anyone feel free to correct me.

I'm sure this probably isn't your first time using odex me, but just in case, I remember it seems to take forever to complete. Like hit ok on reboot and odex.. Go make a sandwich (preferable a deluxe), come back to the phone and (depending on how many apps you have installed) eat the sandwich and you might get done eating before it's done... Forever,

Yeah I've used it several other times and it does take forever, but usually during reboots (thought I bricked on my first use). This time it just hung on the app screen saying it was going to reboot and I hadn't loaded any apps yet.
Made a sandwich during my nand reload though lol

Lol.. Good one.
I have had that happen to me one time as well. It turned out that the KERNAL I was trying to use it with didn't have init.d support. I'm not saying that is the case here, but generally (unless you're odex me app goes bad sitting on your SD card waiting for its next use) I don't believe the app is ROM specific. Build maybe(FE07/FE10 etc...)? I don't know.

flashed this earlier today from the stock unlocked plus kernel (coming from agat63's tfe10 rom), and upon rebooting i got an error stating lbe privacy guard couldn't start because it didn't have root access. then i tried loading up rom toolbox, and it too was borked.
so i went ahead and wiped data/cache and re-flashed the rom, but still i had no root. i wiped data again and flashed back to tfe10 and i was back in business.
bad download or rom not compatible with flashing from fe10 unlocked recovery?

Yes I'd recommend that also. it's considered a safe recovery.
ok, on Agat's recovery, I think it came with my blazer rom. Looks like a crest in the bg I think. Also, on a somewhat unrelated issue, if I used better battery stats and find that power management service is keeping my phone from deep sleep, is that as easy as an uninstall or freeze in titanium backup or would I have to manually patch the ROM?

Not sure if i am the only one but...

ever since i rooted and flashed nard rom, my rogers splash screen goes from the normal red to a dark blue....no matter what i do it wont ever stay red....ive tried flashing the stock rogers kernel....any suggestions?
Mine did it too when I flashed ICS roms. I kind of like it. Mine stars red then goes blue after a few sec. It stays blue on reboots but goes back to red for a few sec if I do a power down.
I can tell you when I flashed back to Inc3ption it went back to only red.

I was on Rogers GB initially. Then went to one click which removed rogers and put at&t at the boot. Then i'd NardROM for quite a while and now i'm running LiteROM, but both of these have a samsung logo followed by galaxy s boot screen. I'm amazed you guys still have the rogers logo . Also i've flashed the alpha bults by dman which changes the boot animation to the cool CM9. Haven't seem the rogers logo since flashing the one click ICS.
Never flashed the 1 click.I actually flashed the cwm ICS stock. Flaky USB makes me afraid to flash the 1 click. ICS is working fine with this method I wonder what is different doing it this way. Oh and I got to keep my cwm 5.0 this way.

What is the difference between the cwm5 and 6 bc I haven't been able to find much of one. Is there a benefit to using one or the other?
CWM 5 volume keys up and down to navigate and power button to select. CWM 6 touch controlled. I have 5 and I am quite happy with it. Some people love 6. Guess it's a matter of preference. Since 5 is working for me I saw no need to try 6.

Are you interested in trouble shooting or are you to the point that you're set to jump back to ICS?
If you are interested in trying to figure out your issues; we'd need to know which FK23 you used to start. You said you were stock/unrooted so I'd assume you used the .tar file with Odin, but I don't want to assume.
Like third son, I use Fk23 as my dd and have, so far, had a great experience to my delight. I used the intial .tar with pc Odin.
I would start from scratch. Sounds like you got a flacky install.
I guess I can try again... I followed the youtube video from qbking77 so whatever the video used is what I used lol
I mean I like this update but to buggy for me
So ill give it one more try. Any other way to try it would be great

OP - Try this link. (I'm am not saying it's better than _dan's, Mattix's, garwynns / nor am I saying unrooted is better than rooted. I'm saying this is the build that's my DD and has been great for me.)
Be advised to backup everything important from your phone prior. Read everything and take your time. I know you were busy but don't rush.
If you have any questions, I'm sure there are a ton of people willing to answer.

No, you don't have to reflash ICS. When you get home and if you have questions before hand, just ask.
Everything you mentioned works fine for me. Except apps disappearing from homepage, I got that too. Unless you move them to the internal sd it will keep happening. Hopefully that's fixed with FL04.. I have way too much apps and need as much on external as possible.

If you have the modem flashed already, don't worry about that one. Look on "about phone" to find out. The rooted one click will give you both kernel and rom. Are you familiar with how to do that? Not being a wise guy....just asking....
