Congrats man on the new phone. No the rooting process I'd going to be different on the epic. Sfhub has created a one touch root method that is definitely the most user friendly, and is highly recommended.

Here is a link to sfhub's auto root. Def the best method.

Welcome to the tribe....... Sfhub's one touch root method definitely way to go.

Great choice man on a phone but forget the way you thought with the Evo in some cases and do hardcore reading up on your new phone prior to doing anything since it will save the million and one questions you may ask. Check out the wiki section as well for some great tips. Enjoy and welcome aboard - just do me a favor and read read and then read some more

Thank you....I do like the thinness of the phone compared to my evo.....it is pretty large though!
I am VERY familar with rooting and restoring roms on my evo, I think I did it about 100+ times.
It was pretty simple, download Unrevoked and bam! I am looking at Odin and Sfhub's one touch root method.....so...One of them should be fine.
I dont understand what the modems are used for. Do most ROMS come with them? I understand that they are used to communicate with Carrier towers...but is the higher version always better? What are they compared to on an Evo, if at all.
Thanks!

qbking77 videos show you how to root and everything you need. He's a great guy.

IMO the best method to root then install cwm is to.flash rooted el29 with the Odin method than use the one click to install cwm. Thats how I did it at least.

Yeah, I just got mine last night and this is what I plan on doing at work today. Mine is on el29 so as I understand it I would want to flash rooted el29 then install cwm in autoroot. Once I've had it for a few days I'll probably start testing out third party roms but I have a weird thing where I like to run stock(ish) for a little bit just so I get to know the phone and know what "baseline" performs like. Also, I already like this phone stock more than the Evo with Sense. Touchwiz seems much less intrusive and overly glossy. Only little annoyance I have is that when I did OTA update to el29 I lost scrolling wallpaper so I may jump to calkulins rom just to get that back.

please don't flash the international ics rom either..... *drops mic and walks away*

Ive had my Epic 4g Touch for a couple of days now. Im coming from the Evo 3D. Touchwiz sucks compared to sense but this phone feels more powerful and smooth. Evo 3D also has a bigger dev support here in xda. Hopefully this changes considering this is a relatively new phone. I love the big screen on this phone and how thin it is. Im keeping it untill HTC comes out with at 4.5+ inch phone. Go to youtube and looks for qbkimg77 videos on this phone. They are very helpful.

First of all unrevoked is only for HTC devices in the Dev section you will find the Auto root its quite simple not as Unrevoked but quite helpful, then I would recomend you to run stock with root a couple of days and start with Calkulin's ROM, UnNamed, and other stockish roms with goodies and then flash everything you like as kernels(Rogue Hitman, LosKernel,etc) Modems(EG30, EK02, EL29, etc) of course rooted and other ROMs (CM7, CM9, etc) and always have a backup and Odin installed in your computed

Finally Got This Phone

I used my upgrade from my Nexus S 4g and decided to come over the the S2 on Sprint. I intend to play with this phone till my wife upgrade is in August which she will take the S2 in hopes that I will get the S3 by then.
Been reading up on these posts on here and I think I got it but wanted to make sure.
1. I need to Odin to get root with el29?
2. Never flash, wipe, reset data in ICS CWM?
3. Is it me or are there no Kernels like AirKernel for this phone?
4. I plan to go with CNA as I had on my Nexus. Love that rom anything you would like to share about this rom?
Any advice on the questions would be great and to be honest I really only post here and there but I'm always on here. Been here since the release of the Evo 4G.
Thanks.

Thanks and it awesome to be a part of the S2 community. WOW.
Really feels welcome here......

You're sure to get help now, getting all pissy that someone didn't help you at 5:30 on a Sunday morning. Good luck

Wow, congrats to the E4GT community. You just enrolled another winner to the team.
How come no one rolled out the red carpet within the first few hours of this thread?
Glad I moved onto another phone, you guys really suck here
OP, you should get a GN. After my first post there, I was sent a 4 course meal from my favorite restaurant.

xda same as always...
Stoked to be here though.
Sort of asking for help, those are things that I've read up on. Just kind of a ice breaker more then anything.

Welcome to the party and congrats on the new phone.
The only question I can answer is #1, which is yes, to get an easy start just Odin sfhub's one-click EL29 for root, then read, read, read in the development section for all the goodies available.
Happy flashing and remember, if you brick your phone it's all on you.

1. I rooted just fine without Odin.
2. Yes it's also recommended you do that with most roms overall to avoid technical difficulties later on.
3. Idk what airkernel is, but there seems to be a limited choice if kernels for ginger.
4. CNA? Don't think I've seen a ROM called that around here but what do I know? I'm just a newbie...

You just have to have thicker skin over here, people may seem a little harsh at times (me included) but at the core of their comments you typically find the truth you needed. If you read around enough you'll see there are a lot of good people in this community. I'd suggest you start with the thread below to see what I mean.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1572184
Most important of all, just follow the #1 rule of thumb for the internet, don't take things personally and you'll be just fine.
Oh, also, don't expect anyone here to a)kiss your butt (well maybe iSaint j/k lol), b)hold your hand or c)pat you on your wee little noggin when you f*ck up because you didn't read and ended up bricking your phone. That is all.

Everybody moved to the Evo One. This place is a ghost town now.

Coming from a Evo then a Nexus S 4G I can't believe the trouble ones has to go through flashing roms that are ICS.
Odin is easy so that is nice but still. Seems like a lot of effort.
This phone is sweet. I just got to wait till I actually have time from work, kids and family so I can sit down and root this think and flash away.
Excited.

I can honestly say if it weren't for Odin and sfhub's one-click goodies I would probably still just be an observer on this forum. But he made it easy and then I learned to flash recovery and in doing so was able to start flashing Calkulin's custom ROMs. Although that's as far as I've gotten for now it's a long way from where I began and I'm excited for what's around the corner.

Once the source is released and official ota's are out im sure all the kinks will be ironed out. Development for ICS is still early for this phone. Using Odin isnt that bad, you can still flash a rom in about five minutes.

It may seem a bit overwhelming at first but it really is incredibly easy. Just make sure your CWM is stock (just flash CM7 or GB Miui), and then you should have no issues flashing ICS.

mobile Odin is your friend guys. as quick as a reboot.

Coming from an Evo and kind of lost......

Hello everyone I recently bought this touch off of craigslist and am utterly confused on the root process, flashing roms, etc...... First off it was already rooted and using CWM recovery. I found this out after I figured out how to boot into recovery on my new to me phone lol. With the Evo there were some growing pains but I figured it out pretty fast and was flashing like crazy in a couple of days. It's seems this phone is a whole new beast. Im living it so far but I need to know exactly what im up against since I see the phrase "brick your phone way too much already". I've read some threads already but can't quite wrap my mind around it yet so im reaching out, and yes I plan to do a while lot of reading just like I did with the OG Evo. That's not an option right now since my lil sister has been in the ICU in the hospital and I've been spending every waking hour there. Anyway I would just like to know where I stand with the room that is presently on the phone already and what I can do if I wanted to flash something else. Anyway thx for any help given and to those who will surely tell me to read, read, read I will, will, will lol.

Thx for responding and I will def check that out. I would just like to know what the previous owner did to root the phone if you could look at the screen shoot and give me an ideal. I asked him but he said someone rooted it for him and he didn't have much info. I also asked him off he was on XDA and he said no but he browsed an epic 4g forum but I didn't press him since I knew I could just come here and find out ask I needed to know. Anyway thx for that info.

Whoops, accidentally hit the thanks button
Anyway it was most likely originally rooted using the EL29 one click found here:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101
This just installed stock firmware (gingerbread build) on the phone that was rooted. From there he probably upgraded to ics using the recovery built in with the EL26 kernel. Most recoveries are safe to use now, just make sure you thoroughly read the OP.
There was also an exploit through which it could have been rooted, but that was patched long ago.

Thank you for that info. One other question. Is there something I have to flash to be able to enable usb storage so I can move files btw my phone and pc/mac? I read in one of the thread that Samsung removed this feature at some point.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

Look in the android development section. It appears you have the Universe rom from several versions back. I would recommend starting off stock rooted for learning purposes. We have a 1 click method for this and you can learn more from the development section and the qbking videos. FI27 is the most recent build number. I have not tried it yet. Last build I ran was FI03.
After you flash a stock rooted rom you will need to flash a kernel. I always used agats kernel and consider it safe. Good luck and read, read, read before you jump into anything.

Thx for all the help I have since flashed Agat recovery with stock FH13 rom and Universe 2.3 and am now on the way to fully exploring my phone.

Sounds like you are on the right track. I dont think I ever tried Universe rom. I have mostly been on Aosp based roms the past few months.

Universe rom is neat. I would suggest checking out blazer, calkulins or re-calk, and blu kuban. Those have been some of my favorites.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

If you plan on checking out Kuban,I recommend the link in my sig. The flash procedure also works for many other roms, but until you are really comfortable I would always follow the op directions in whatever ROM you choose to flash. You picked a good phone with a great community. Lots of very helpful people here, even though we lost quite a few to the s3.

I have an OG EVO and my wife has the E4GT. I rooted it yesterday afternoon in about 15 minutes' time. Definitely not the same as rooting the EVO. While it's different, I think it swayed me towards going with the SGS III when my upgrade comes up next month. Looking forward to playing with the E4GT some more-if the wife lets me :angel:

I hear you, I never even played with an E4GT before I bought it I just saw how great the S3 looked and felt in the sprint store and loved it. Since I refuse to sign a new 2 year contract I always stay at least a model behind and just go to craigslist.

htc phones and samsung are quite different i had an evo and it takes me twice as long to root it compared to samsung. but samsung seems easier to brick.

Virgin Mobile US Jelly Bean official update, GB28.

Have any VM US users installed the official update from Kies for their "Samsung Galaxy II" (Epic 4G Touch) yet? Have you had any problems? Has anything improved? The two problems that I read about so far are:
- Google Now closing quickly. Seems there is a fix by clearing cache or reset.
- BT not stable for some audio devices.
How is your battery life, has it improved, I read one report on the Sprint device that it did.
Please let me know of your experience with the official VM Jelly Bean, id GB28 US update from Kies, good or bad, thanks.

Hi wizard, this thread is about the official Samsung update via Kies. I am not sure about VM-specific ROMs as I am not rooted.
Currently on stock ICS, Virgin has visual voice mail but it only seems to work sometimes for me. I am not sure how it will work on JB or if it will even exist on the official JB. I am pretty sure some vendor-specific features like Sprint ID and Virgin Mobile ID are lost in the official JB release.

I guess I miss understood the thread. The title implied there was a E4gT with a Virgin Mobile GB28 based rom in existence.
I am looking for a phone.apk, that used the non-visual voice mail system, which is comparable with the E4GT. I was hopping I might be able to get it from this rom.

Are you unfamiliar with the One Clicks?
The name is accurate...One click.
If it takes you more than 5 minutes to read how to click a button once, you may want to stay on the stock rom.

Synergy r484

Kinda new to the xda still trying to figure out rules. Kudos to the synergy guys tried a couple different roms and I'm addicted to this rom and is features. Just flanged the r484 and am support happy the mms issue wad fixed. Multi Window flawless. No problems with cameras. The only thing I have had issues with is reception 4g/3g. It seemed more stable with r433. Using ziggy and used custom install with pre selected synergy recs. If this post is on the wrong spot mod please fix. If someone has an answer for me greatly appreciated

Have you tried changing your modem ? Or going to a different ROM and updating prl and profile ?

Changing modem? Haven't heard that one yet. If you could elaborate on that one that would help. As for prl and profile I'll try that but I didn't have the issue with the previous build. Should I just try flashing stock and update? Then reflash. My area hasn't changed. Stock and previous r434 build I had very constant and strong 4g everywhere. With the r484 it can't make up its mind between 3g/4g. Thanks Daniel for the info

You change your modem through Odin. Been a while since I've done it (on HTC for a while there when my Epic broke it's charge port) but as I recall you put the phone in download mode, put them modem in the 'Phone' field after downloading it to your computer, and fire away. Do check the instructions first, I'm going off of memory from six months ago.... Some radios work better with some phones than others. Depends on your device.

In CWM or TWRP recovery, he can flash new modem in .zip format from this thread- http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1787677
FOLLOW DIRECTIONS CLOSELY, FLASHING MODEM WRONG CAN BRICK YOUR DEVICE!!

That's probably (read:is) easier than Odin.

Thanks for the input guys. Very appreciated. I'll try that the next time I'm at the home computer and let you know.

I s-offed an Evo3D.... that was fun. I got it right the first time by some luck....
Odin is *much* easier than HTC.

I know right. I hate how the only way to root the newer HTC devices is by doing sketchy wire tricks.

Dunno about the ET4G, but my Epic was fairly easy to root. But the GS3 was much easier. My wife's Photon Q was about the same as the GS3.

I had an HTC but never played with it due to watching a friend ruin multiples of them. So I never attempted. Had my gs3 for three days before I rooted and started modding. For never doing this before and having mediocre comp skills this was fairly simple. Just want to make sure I cover my bases before doing something wrong.
