From reading the Development section, I was wondering is FI27 the LATEST Official ICS ROM?? Also does this rom work well if I have an Epic Touch flashed to METROPCS?

FI27 is current and will likely be the final official ICS build. It will work but you may need to change your MMSC URL back after flashing. (Assuming it doesn't have separate APN information)

Hi,
I have been having some serious LOS & general crappy radio reception. Before I jump ship to the Evo 4G LTE, I would like to revert to whatever the latest 'official' rom & official modem just for testing purposes.
I am using CM9 beta 3, FE22 modem & kernel. I want to try CM9 Beta 5 but I am having too many problems that could be phone related, or just rom/modem related.
I love CM9, but the phone is not as usable with data LOS being a frequent problem for me.
Thanks,
Rich
EL29
That's the official gingerbread release. Everything newer are leaks.
Hey this may sound like a silly question but seeing as i am a new comer to the world of the Epic 4g Touch (previously live in the world of the OG Evo) some of this is a little new to me.
current set up is as follows
baseband version s:d710.10 s.el29
kernal version: 2.6.35.14-rogue_et-1
4.1+
build number : calculins.e4gt.rom.v3.0
i was looking at installing the super galaxy rom but wanted to know if it is safe to flash a rom that is based off of ff11 when im currently on el29.
again only reason i ask is because i could not find mention of this in the op for that rom.
that and i never really had to worry about sow many different builds when i was on my OG Evo. any help would be greatly appreciated.

You have to flash the el26 kernel then copy the rom to your internal or external sd then you are all set just flash the rom in cwm.

ah, thank you for the fast reply man.
and the kernal can also be flashed in cwm just like i used to do on the OG Evo? or would it have to be done through ODIN?
Yes it is safe. Youre baseband aka modem can be different from your kernal or rom base (super galaxy rom is based on FF11 stock rom). Just be extra careful flashing ICS roms so read up before doing anything.
And you don't need to go back to EL26 before you flash. Just use a custom recovery and flash Calk's Format All instead of wiping using the recovery. You don't need to do the extra work of going back to el26.
i just got the samsung sg3 and out of the box comes with LI3 which i understand as the newest modem out for sprint. i was wondering if rom builds were dependent on the type of modem you have as well. i guess my biggest question is if i can flash the CM10 nightly builds even though i have LI3 or do i need to go to a older modem such as LG8? Thanks

You can use LI3, LG8, LJ7.......just about ANY modem/baseband you want........they are all independent of the ROM. It's one of those YMMV things so see how it works with LI3.....maybe in your area you get ROCKING reception using that modem.....if not, then try another one.
Just switched one of my phones to TMobile GS3. The phone is already rooted running baseband T999UVDLJC. Is this the latest modem available for our phones? Does this also mean I can only flash ROMS that state T999UVDLJC in the thread title?

LJC is the latest build version
Yes, your modem is up to date.
No, you don't HAVE to flash ROMs that state LJC because the LJC ROM threads are normally based off stock TW. You can go with an AOSP ROM running on later android builds so long as you flash ROMs specifically only for the T999 (d2tmo).
So if you like TW look for LJC based ROM threads. If you want the latest and greatest android builds go with an AOSP ROM.

Thanks for the clarification on this!
Hi guys, I got my glide sent over from the u.s (I'm in the u.k) a few months ago, it was already rooted for me, and as such, I'm wondering what rom and kernal I'm using?
The details I can retreive are:
Android ver 4.0.4
Baseband : I927RUXKJ5
Kernal : 3.1.10-I927UCLG9-CL970642
Build. : IMM67D
Does this give anyone any clues?
Is this the stock ota ics update from at&t?
The phone is a rojers one.
Stock kernal?
Just wondering as was thinking about flashing the litekernal, and not sure if it would work ok with the rom I am using, as this rom is very stable..
Btw cwm is installed etc..
Thanks..
James.

Correct, that's the UCLG9 Samsung stock rom with stock kernel and you should have no problems installing the ICS version of litekernel.
