Update is launching today!

The latest update for the Epic Touch is launching today(12/7). Some people are already getting the OTA.

The first member who gets the update please post it
Thanks

That's the best news I've heard since earlier....(facepalm)
The bummer is we already have it so until there's a .tar we will still have the modem issue

I think jmejiaa from the other thread has received the update. I have already asked him to post the update.

So if you are on a custom ROM, will the update push / prompt? Or do you have to go back to stock?
Does it matter if the custom ROM is EG30 or EK02 based?

Oh no, I don't have it. Sorry if it seemed like I did.
I'd be glad to grab the update if I am pointed towards some instructions on how to do that. My phone is not rooted it that matters.

You won't get an OTA on a custom ROM

Question: I'm rooted and on Calkulin's Rom. Should I accept OTA update when I receive it?
Does this Unroot or brick my phone?

Will I still get the update even if I did the qbking manual update? 100% stock not rooted.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

I think the bottom line is, if you have anything but stock EG30 on your phone (ROM, kernel and modem) the update will download but the install will fail. I doubt it will brick your phone as the update probably does version checks before it starts the install process.
Same goes for people with the EG31 modem. You folks will have to wait for a TAR leak.

theres no proof of that eg31 was provided by a sprint tester so that would mean his phone wouldnt take the ota either? we will just have to wait and see! but you do have to be on a stock not rooted phone and currently the only way to get back to completely stocl is with the eg31 tar

So im guessing a factory restore odin of eg30 is in order.

Yea we'll just have to wait it out then and stick w/ stock kernels for now. So far i haven't gotten a single LOS since flashing it. It's def a bummer tho, I wanna go back to those fancy kernels.

Should we bounty up a [EL30]+[ROOT]+[CWM]+[ODIN]

We really need a single stock flash that pre-roots with CWM and the latest modem. Anyone know if this is being worked?... or if it ever will?

Doubt it its not hard to odin el30 and root it. Just more steps but elimnates what 2-3minutes top...
I'd do it myself but have no idea how to xD
Not sure a file dump would be sufficient

Can't happen at the moment (well the modem anways). They have not released a full tar for the modem yet... which is why we only have delta flashable modems...

It doesn't flash a modem... only a rom... the only way to get the el30 modem is to flash it in cwm... and to answer you fully, I consider it a rom... it doesn't contain a modem... odin the ec05 modem and then odin that rom... guess what, you're still on the ec05 modem... that's what I consider it...

EL30 Odin package sans modem. Should be good enough for now. You just need to Odin the EC05 modem, found here. Then flash this delta to update to EL30 modem, found here.
3 steps isn't that bad to get to current stock, given the fact we don't have that official .tar file.

You are in the wrong place. You should post this on Samsung's website. You can have this after Samsung relases a tar. All the money in the world won't get it here.

I got the impression from the OP that what he/she wants is a pre-rooted stock ODIN tar. Can that be done without the modem?

Yes without the modem, not a problem. Toadlife already gave us a stock tar without the modem. It would probably be easy for him to make a prerooted version.

Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of prerooted EL30 (with modem) + cwm + root. But a 2 step wouldnt be bad... if all one had to do is flash the delta right after odining the rooted EL30 with CWM.

Hit up Toadlife to throw a recovery and superuser into the tar he made then put a link to the modems thread in the OP with it.

You have to use odin to root... search for qbking videos on how to root the epic on gingerbread... or find the ec05.tar and use the one click root.... then upgrade cwm to 5.0.2.7 and flash away...

If you wanna preroot, download a stock tar and download a recovery bin for cwm then put that in the tar and boot to recovery and flash a superuser zip
Sent from my GT-P7510 using XDA

Or you can Odin in an EC05 prerooted tar, flash CWM5 and flash your ROM of choice. Here is one:

FH23 one click

Hey guys I installed FH23 on top of my FH13 using the one click. If there is an OTA will I be able to get it? Thanks

As long as your stock you will be able to receive OTAs down the road. but you'll lose root.

I thought stock meant that it had to have been released officially from Sprint... Do the leaks count?

No, doesnt have to be official. Leaks are just that stock Leaked versions. They just not released. You can still receive OTAs. And yes they do count.

No you can stay on el29. And if you have SuperSU there is a permanent unroot option.

Thanks so much man

quickest way to go back to stock

My friend is currently running cm10 on her phone and has asked me to make it stock again. She wants root gone completely as well as cwm. What would be the easiest way to unroot this device. If anyone has a thread that can point me in the right direction it would be much appreciated. I knew how to do it when it was gb but i haven't messed with this device since then and she is on jb now and I am not sure what I need to do or where the gs2 is actually at with stock kernels. SO much going on i cant keep up anymore haha.

Just Odin back to a stock rom. There is a sticky thread with everything you need in development.

I'm getting ready to revert my phone to stock, but I haven't used Odin for a while. The one click file has a .7z extension. Will it need to be unzipped with 7zip before using Odin?

Yes unzip it and open the odin package included within.

If you want an .EXE instead, here's the one click for current version (FI27).

Quick question...need answer asap. Helping out cousin who has to go back to sprint store b4 8pm.
He has to go back to stock unrooted for sprint to replace his phone. My question is, will flashing the stock odin tar for FI27 replace the recovery also? If not, is it any way to get back the stock recovery?
