flash stock/remove odin count

couldnt find a thread for this question although ive seen it before so sorry for re-post?
my phones been turning off randomly and i dont know why. im running fd05w/root and thats it. i do have a battery saver but i dont think thats the issue.
i wanna take it into sprint but want to make sure iam completely "clean" with my firmware etc..
soo how how/what is latest version of stock for e4gt? and how to get rid of the odin count..mines at like 3 or 4
EL29 is the latest stock. There is the triangle away app that works on ICS. USB Jig on an old bootloader is the normal way.
But random rebooting can happen with the leaks especially roms installed without full wiping. Had one the other day but it was regular on some of the roms i didn't install the way i should have.
If you had a USB jig the easiest way to do it is use sfhubs ODIN one click go back to EK02. Use the USB jig and then OTA update to EL29 which will leave you on a stock unrooted EL29. Factory reset for good measure. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1409634
Might be the long way of doing it but it would be very proper.
You can oneclick odin to a stock rooted EL29 and i believe use the autorooter to unroot but id play with EL29 before returning your phone. If there is nothing wrong with your phone you run the risk of getting a refurb thats worse than what you have. They're all refurbs.

I wouldn't deal with it if its bad. Id flash EL29 rooted from one click and make sure my phone was fine for a day or so and then probably flash back to FD05 see how it is. The worst reboot problems I ever had was when i upgraded from Calks 1.3 to 1.3a using ICS CWM like i shouldnt have been. A clean reflash fixed it for me but other people said they had issues. I have only noticed one reboot on FD05 so far i was in the middle of doing something. But other situations it was every hour or once a day.
If you need something to backup contacts, messages and call logs superbackup works great.

The ONLY way you should go back from ICS to GB is through ODIN. So EL29 One Click and then howver you wish to get CWM but sfhubs auto rooter will do it for you. If you prefer to go back to calk's 3.0 you can then flash it from cwm and be back where you were.
But if you flashed from Calk's 3.0 to FD05 without erasing data just so you know thats a potential problem for alot of things. Old settings aren't great. Always format all if flashing an ics rom or use the data erasing odin's if going that way.
back to gb
I have ics blend xplod mini currently flashed,so the only safe way to go back to a el 29 gb is to directly Odin back to it?
Using calk format all then flashing a gb rom is setting myself up to fail?

Off the top of my head i cant remember if its garunteed fail but pretty sure it is.
Youve already been warned by steady to NOT flash any rom with ICS recovery repacks. Despite many of us having success others have ended up with permanent bricks. Im not at home to look for you but best i remember ics to gb is odin safe cwm fail.
Yes the safest way is to Odin one click touch back to EL29. then wipe all cashes. Don't cwm back to el29. It might work. But it might brick.
Search triangle away apk. It reset my flash count and removed yellow triangle at start up.

There is a known issue with several of the FC and FD sites leaks in relation to 4G. Nobody has quite figured out the reason for it but 4G is the cause. Try running without 4G or on an older version of Android to see if the resets are software related our hardware. Maybe save yourself the trip and extra work.
Goods luck either way!

[Q] Installing ICS? Restoring to GB?

OK! I am so scared to be flashing an ICS rom but I want to take the plunge now, I am on Calkuins E4GT 2.9.2 rom and want to flash AOKP, what must I do before I flash? I also want to know what I have to do to restore back to this rom say if I don't like ICS?
Can you please include the links to anything I need? Thanks

Make a nandroid backup. Then Odin the stock EL26 build with CWM recovery. From there you can go to AOKP. And use Calkulin's Format All to do the wiping if you use CWM to flash anything.
First off, read this so you know what mistakes not to make:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1525495
Here's the link for EL26:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1416477
And for AOKP:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1514665
If you don't like ICS and want to revert back to what you had just Odin One-Click EL26 again, use the Auto Root Package to install CWM and restore the nandroid in recovery. If you do any wiping in recovery mode use Calkulin's Format All. It's much safer than manually wiping.
The link for the AOKP build has a really good how-to included with it. Takes you step by step through it.
Okay I have a question? Why do we have to Odin back to el26? why not EL29? Just wondering thats all...

Ya it has CWM5 on it that's be shown to be the safest to flash over to ICS. A lot of people ended up with bricked phones to discover that, lol.
I've flashed many times from EL29. It's flashing back that kills it. Wrong partition or something. Going forward is fine. Use Calk's Format all. And try not to restore data. It sometimes breaks things.
I think the issue is that you want to be using a certain version of CWM, and not any other recoveries like Rogue builds (no offense). That being said, I have flashed ICS from EL29 plenty of times. Get Mobile Odin Lite and our flash kernel from XDA (only available from XDA). Get the CWM EL26 kernel that everyone is using. Mobile Odin the kernel and hold the power button and up volume on reboot. It isn't much different or take much longer than rebooting into recovery.

Honestly OP there are stickys and instructions in every thread on how to do these things safely and (no offense) but if those were not enough and you still had to make a thread to ask again.... Maybe just maybe you should chill till they come up with a solid no problems method. I believe MeWarning gave you a lot of info as well as a few others.
Also they say to use EL26 but it seems that all recoveries EL29 and lower can be used with out issue. I would follow what the masses are doing though and not question too much especially if you are afraid....IMHO
Cut and dry as long as you flash and do everything you need too out of a GB kernel and CWM you will be ok..

I wouldnt use an el29 rogue repack to flash any aosp ics roms, might be safe for TW ics but aosp all recommend el26+cwm5 because that was the last build with stock cwm actually baked into the kernel and is the safest for flashing aosp ics. Mobile Odin and el26+cwm are 2 good items to keep on your SD card for flashing ics its quick and easy and doesn't take much longer to flash using that method than just booting to baked in recovery to flash

can you go from ics back to el29 basically can i use SPH-D710.EG30_CL435734-OneClick to go back
my friend from sprint said there is a lot of problems with ics thanks larry
also do you trust rooting ics with the possibly of bricking and all that noncense
last quest when u deroot or root whats the difference about el29 eg30 little confused
thanks
ooppps what does ota mean im new at this lol so el 29 is the gingerbread which is the 2nd newest from ics eg30 is old then// dont use that right
last quest i saw that there is roms that say FF18 FE22 WHAT DOES ALL OF THEM MEAN WHICH ROMS DO U USE
I SED TO USE ALL CALKULINS ROMS BUR A LITTLE CONFUESED WITH THE DIFF LETTERS NOW
ROM ] Calkulin's E4GT 2 v1.6 [ ICS l FE22 l Tweaked l Battery Saver Script
Yes you can do the one click with no issues. As far as the ICS issues, what are you referring to? Been running M'ICS for two weeks and no issues other than the visual issue with long press home to clear running apps.
El29 came after eg30. EL29 is the official GB update. (Correct me if I'm wrong)
All in all, I'm loving ICS. The stock kernel/android recovery has the potential to possibly brick your phone. But they have safe kernels out now. Its all up to you on what you want to do. Just make sure you enjoy your phone.

Wrong one click. Look for sfhub's el29 rooted one click. You wont need to be in recovery for one click, but download mode instead. Need to hold vol down + power. Press up when prompted. Open oneclick on computer, plug in usb, hit start on odin, voila. Back to el29.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
The one click FF18 is the ICS build. If you want GB you need EL29. Wipe cache doesn't unroot. There is a process to unroot or Odin el29 no root. The no data means it won't wipe your data. Be careful it can cause issues. Use a back up app to save your current apps.
In the sticky for this section there is a wiki on rom/kernels/modems. Click on roms. It has the link for el29 full or no data.

WHAT DOES ALL OF THEM MEAN I KNOW FF18 IS ICS WHAT ARE THE OTHER STUFF
FF18! FF02! FE21, FE16, FE14, FE10, FE07, FD24, EL29, EL26, EG30, EK02
those are leaked builds of ICS. From after el29 GB to before FF18 ICS. To back up apps use titanium back up or my back up pro (in the market) OTA = over the air. if you want try another ICS rom. Most are stable. Just one click back to el29 and flash new ICS from there. I trust the devs here. They produce quality work. for you flash agats63 kernel with safe recovery. Then from there you can try the best ICS rom for what you want/need.

dude I'm not trying to be rude but I've seen two of your threads now and you reallly should spend some time reading before messing around with this phone as there is the potential to brick. I have a thread called welcome to the e4gt stickied in general, you may want to start there as it address a lot of the things you've been asking about. Sfhubs posts about his Odin one clicks will also clear a lot up... should you have more questions use the "search this forum" option to look for what it is you need help with, chances are there's already a thread about it..... lastly I wouldn't avoid ff18 just because someone anecdotally told you there are issues with it, with exception of a few very post happy negitive nancys around here the vast majority of us who have been using ff18 or ff18 based builds since the leak well over a month ago have not had issues with it

[Q] Installed unrooted fk09 and went back to ff18 need help!

Yesterday I tried out the stock leak of fk09 I liked it allot but the one issue I had was i could not make phone calls. Therefore I found the below link and went back to the unrooted FF18
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
Now that im on FF18 everything works fine but I have not been prompted to updated OTA to F127 Anyone know why?
Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks
minusbfold
It can take up to 72 hours (saw this from multiple users) for the OTA to hit back on the latest. Besides, who's to say they don't have their source down for maintenance, maybe they're on holiday.. A lot of variables..
Did you happen to try Kies to update?
Why not just go here and get the latest. Your choice of rooted/unrooted as well. Won't be anything different than accepting the OTA.. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1903252
