USeing Mobile odin on FI22 or FI27 kernels, is it possible - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I just found out mobile odin doesn't like FI22 or FI27. My guess is, since those are both ICS versions that mobile odin doesn't like ICS at all, but I could be wrong.
I want use mobile odin to flash agats kernel FK23(jb) from the current FI27 Agats recovery I am now, so I can flash a nandroid backup back, but with odin not working I cannot use mobile odin that way.
Mobile odin it says "Device Model not supported (or detected - check root)"
Any ideas?
Any help is appreciated.

Those are .exe files... They won't work on mobile odin right???
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Mobile Odin says some exe files may work. There's an EG30 factory ROM available, use that and flash EL29. Check the wiki for EG30 Odin.

Then just install the CWM kernel and you are good to go!
Fyi - If you don't like the yellow triangle on boot I'd use Mobile Odin to flash the CWM.

Just an FYI, installing CWM via the Auto Root package in the development sticky also would not trigger the yellow triangle.
Only flashing a kernel/recovery not signed by Samsung using regular ODIN will trigger the yellow triangle.
But wut if I don't have a computer and just want to use mobile odin

What are you trying to accomplish? There's a factory EG30 Tar file for Mobile Odin. It's not rooted but will get you to factory and you can update to EL29 via OTA. If you want to Odin and keep root you'll have to find a rooted ROM tar in one of sfhub's threads. At worst, you'll have to extract individual packets from the exe files or find an individual file in the resource section.

Install EL29 rogue repack with mobile odin. Then flash calkulins rooted EL29 and EL29 modem from CWM.

Alternatively, couldn't he just install the EL29 rogue repack with mobile odin, then restore a GB nandroid if he has one? This would keep him from having to install another rom altogether, and get him back to previous setup

Sure, if there is a nandroid backup that would be quickest to restore rom and user data. Still need to flash the modem as above.

Isn't modem completely independent of ROM and kernel though, so that wouldn't be necessary, unless he really wanted everything back to EL29?

It just depends what you want to restore to. You can run an EL29 ROM with a different modem. If someone says they want to restore back to a previous version, unless they mention otherwise, I give them instructions to restore modem, kernel, and ROM.

Can i use mobile Odin from ics to go back to gb?

Yes, Odin one of sfhub's one-click packages. I went from FC22 back to EL29 with no complications whatsoever.
Oh hell, missed the mobile Odin part. I still believe you can but you have to flash the modem separately, however please wait for a response from someone who actually has mobile Odin experience. Sorry about the miss.
No problem, anyone know if it is safe to do?

Yes, that is correct, mobile odin will flash the oneclick.exe files.
It won't flash cdma modems, but that is a generic issue not related to odin oneclick.
I may very well be wrong here, if so please let me know...
From my understanding it was only the ICS recovery (due to lack of kernel source) and touch recovery (due to being crappy) that were bricking phones.
For every leak I tried, i simply used mobile odin to flash rogue el29. then restored my backup...am I risking a brick with this method?

Using mobile Odin?

OK I have been flashing since the day of the samsung moment, and back in those days it was strictly adb, PC based Odin, and custom recoveries. The options were limited and it made you a pro at flashing because the routine was always the same. Fast forward to now with the e4gt not only have our options grown but included the emmc bug threat flashing for this bad boy can at time be convoluted. What I'm wondering is with mobile Odin I'm not confident on whether or not it is safe to say flash directly from the fk23 leak to the fl04 leak without first flashing a different kernel or some other prepatory step. Is mobile Odin exactly like the PC version where its cool to flash away?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk 2
I do not think so. I read something about Mobile Odin not flashing modem's. Where as, Desktop Odin does it all. But none the less. Mobile Odin is still a great option. I use it daily to flash to a safe recovery/kernel, when I want to boot into recovery.
Mobile Odin does not trigger the counter or the yellow triangle.

Flash el29 or el26 kernel thru Mobil odin and then restore your backup or flash the rom u prefer. Make sure you flash the modem too at the time of flashing.

+1 to mobile Odin
Your issue could be one of two things (assuming you have the correct drivers) either the version of Odin you're trying to use is outdated or your usb cable/port may not be functioning properly.
Just to verify, you're powering your phone off, holding power and volume down to enter download mode and selecting the option to flash a custom binary correct?
If yes, try another cable if you have one, or another usb port on your PC to rule out those factors. The yellow com port should light up letting you know you're connected.
Also try a newer version of Odin if you're not already running it.
If all else fails, mobile Odin is definitely worth the money:thumbup::beer:

You use it flash a safe recovery tar file then use that recovery to flash your new ROM and stock kernel.

If you're looking for stock unrooted gb08 you can use the full Tar file, but if you want a rooted custom ROM you need to flash a zip

[Q] No 3g or pic messaging or swype

So i have a epic 4gt. Ive tried a few different roms 4.2.2 and everyone i try i don't get any 3g, no swipe, and cant send or receive pic mail through mms, and also volume seems to be way lower then stock. Idk if i did something wrong? idk pls help thanks so much. I personally don't think its a rom...im leaning more towards my phone...its kinda rare that all roms i try are the same.
@firechickenmatt
Make sure that you have a ICS modem, unfortunately on AOSP, the volume is low, and the AOSP keyboard does have gesture typing, but it doesn't come with the swipe keyboard

And if you bounce back between AOSP, CM, and Tw, make sure you change modems according to the dev's instructions. Data won't work on jb roms with ics modems, same as it won't work on aosp and cm with a jb modem.

Settings/about phone/baseband version. Should be able to take it from there
Sent from my SPH-D710BST using xda premium
Yea, the JB update has a jb modem (GB27), ICS modems (FI27, FL24....etc,etc,) don't worry, if you go to rwilco12's android repository, they have all the modems, and there categorised by type, ( GB,ICS and JB)
OK well went back to stock for a while...but same thing happening lol I can't win...every time I turn off WiFi no signal (3g)...and I'm guessing I have jb modem hence the gb27

That's because you can't flash modems using Mobile Odin on our device. You'll have to flash a custom kernel using mobile Odin and then flash the jb modem in cwm.

You cannot use mobile odin to flash modems. You'll have to download a zip and flash via cwm (recovery). :thumbup:

brain fart it hit me right after i hit send. but i still need a suggestion on a kernel that will work. again i'm doing everything modin odin since i have no USB functionality.
i've never used CWM but i have read about it i have rooted every phone i have own, sticking mostly to stock roms for compatibility issues since i kept reading about this and that not working in this rom or that rom. but things have gotten so much better. i'm ready to explore. i'm running stock ICS and want to get some JB action on my SG2 epic touch. then again i may just upgrade to the SG4 and have the port fixed put it to stock and ebay it

I think I mentioned this to you before. You can't use Mobile Odin to flash modems. It won't work. Are you on a stock jelly bean rom? Stock ics rom? If you are on fl24 rom, use fl24 modem. If you are on gb28 rom, you have to use jb modem. If your usb doesn't work, flash a custom recovery with mobile Odin, boot into recovery, and flash modems that way. Just ensure you have a stock kernel(or custom) of the same build you currently have on your phone in zip format saved to your phone before flashing custom recovery.
