Best way to update...

So I rooted a friend's evo about a year ago and it is running:
Android 2.2
Kernel 2.6.32.17-gee557fd [email protected] #15
It wants to update to System Upgrade 4.24.651.1 (109.22mb) FOTA update. It fails because it is rooted...
What is the best way to do this? Unroot and update? Or flash the rooted rom?

Hey,
you my friend need to post in the right section Q/A ask a mod to move it....
but the easiest would be to flash a custom rooted rom.
Oh and btw never update ota with root many bad things can happen.

Thanks! Is this something I can flash over what he has now? If so, I will have to backup his data, right? Also, I will do a nandroid backup just in case...

Back up the apps using titanium backup, wipe, flash, and re-install (user apps only) with titanium backup. There are other apps out there that will back up contacts and text messages separately, but I have personally always had the best luck with Titanium back-up when it comes to apps. To really give yourself a chance at minimal issues only restore the apps and not the data unless you really need to.

Unless told otherwise, always do a full wipe TWICE! I back up all of my apps before a flash.

Need help finding compatible ROM

Ok so I have US Cellular's version of the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic 4g Touch (SCH-R760).
Long story short I messed up my build.prop folder and am stuck in a bootloop. I'm trying to find the stock ROM to flash with ODIN for my model but cant find it because its an obscure model. Does anyone know where I can find the stock SCH-R760 ROM, or a ROM compatible with my phone?
I'd even be cool with a custom ROM like Cyanogenmod, as long as its able to be flashed via ODIN and is compatible with my phone. Thanks in advance!

http://teamuscellular.com/Forum/index.php?/topic/1525-stock-odin-files/
here ya go

thank you so much! worked like a charm. i really appreciate the help. i made sure to save the rom files to my computer as well as performing a nandroid backup to prevent this from happening again. also, i was wondering if theres a stable ICS rom compatible for my phone yet. i searched around for it, but i dont trust my judgement.
If not ICS, what is a good souped-up fast custom ROM?

Can't go wrong with calk's E4GT EL29 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332837

do not flash any of the e4gt roms. even though our phones are similar, they're not an exact match. don't do it.

So then what custom roms CAN i flash?

Ones that are made for your phone, obviously. Not gonna find them here though. Your phone is new and on a smaller carrier so development is going to be slow. I'm sure if you give it some time there will be a few ROMs that pop up. Just enjoy the stock ROM for now- root it, debloat it, toss some tethering into the mix. You'll be fine.

That link I put up has all the custom stuff I could find for your phone. Mainly CM7, CM9, Miui and AOKP.

Thanks again guys. Sorry Root i didnt realize that was on that thread i shouldve read the whole thing. Im good for the time being. Metalhead ive done all that so far rooted, debloated tether installed, and minor build.prop tweaks. I appreciate all the responses!

So it would seem that my gps doesnt work now. Any suggestions? Maybe an update/zip that ibcan flash via cwm?

CM 11
I have an sch-r760 on Alltel. I am running dastin1015's Villuminati CM 11 for the D-710. It is running flawlessly. I have voice/text/mms/data all working.

Any D710 ROM will work

Should i fix?

Currently, im running FD18 from way back when. Im on this because when i go into odin to try and go back to EL29, odin sends a message that is in like a chinese style language. When i click ok, the program auto closes.
Ive tried on multiple computers. Am i stuck or is there a way to at least get back to EL29 or to get the latest OTA?

Not enough info. What kernel you on? Safe recovery? Try flashing rom from recovery or updating kernel then flashing.

FD24 kernel.

You have an out dated, over seas version of Odin. Go to the dev section and in the sticky threads there are two posts .by sfhub. Find the version you are looking for in the Odin one click thread. Then go to the autoe4gt thread and download the auto root tool to obtain cwm. Read the entire OP in both threads. If you have any questions, pm me.

You need to extract Odin and Odin.ini from the zip first. It's looking for the ini file that it can't find, which is why you're getting the popup that you're getting.

Did you use ROM manger to back your ROM? And the 1979 that's the same thing I got when I back up my phone using the recovery. So that might be it. Another question how many time did you back up your gs3 ?

Dose the 1979 file like something like 1979-01-02.12-34 that's not right but something like that if then it might be that but since u use cwm . You have a file on your SD card called cwm which your back up file should be there . And I believe it is name after that number . . Just in case have a ROM zip ready .. restore that file if it work you good if it don't it well tell just read. Then go flash to the zip ROM you have then go find a stock ROM and flash over .. simple... good luck

If you brick your phone its not my problem.
Almost everything is broken. Do not ask for a fix. I did not mod or make this. This is just to get use to it.
Please give me some thanks
And seed.

Is this any better than it was on the Nexus 7 when it first came out? I haven't used it in a while, and most things were still unaccessible.

Double post?? This is already in "original android" thread.

So did I post it there or did someone else. I know someone else has this post but then don't have the links anymore.

It's posted in original development already.

Don't think it'll happen since nothing works in general yet. Its still a developer preview ROM.
