Cannot find correct files to root E4GT D710 in ODIN... (ICS 4.0.4) see screeshot...

Hi I am a long time user and developer for windows mobile devices (WM5/WM6), and have switched over to android for many years now... but just now am having the time to explore cooking with android, using ADK, rooting androids, etc... So i thought id wait on doing anything serious with my SIII and note2, and for now im working on my epic touch 4g.... I have most of all the software i need for windows and for the actual process of flashing, rooting, cooking, etc, but I CANNOT FIND THE CORRECT FILES TO USE IN ODIN TO ROOT MY DEVICE. AND I AM NOT SURE THE BEST WAY TO TELL WHICH VERSIONS OF RADIOS/ROMS/KERNELS/BL'S ARE INTERCHANGEABLE AS WELL.... BELOW IS A LIST OF ALL OF MY DEVICES HW/FW VERSIONS FOR REFERECE... (RUNNING ICS 4.0.4). COULD SOMEONE WITH MORE ANDROID EXPERIENCE PLEASE CHIME IN AND LET ME KNOW WHICH FILES I NEED TO USE IN ODIN TO ROOT THIS EPIC TOUGH 4G FOR ICS 4.0.4? id appreciate any help bc im anxious to check out some roms and start on cooking a few myself... thanks.

(btw i have tried two files so far but once they were flashed it gave me the yellow triangle and displayed as a gti900 model, and never went past splash screen... although the forum suggested they would work
I realize this seems elementary (especially being that I was quite proficient when I used to build WM roms, but android is a different animal and I want to start off right since i plan to start cooking again.... Sorry if this is silly to some, but it wouls really help me out... thanks
thank you all for any advice to help me get goin on this again, i miss doin this!!!

You might wanna ask a mod to move this to the Q&A section before the ib4tl folks start in on ya...
Yea, like posted above you can use a full restore rooted odin or one_click to get root. Assuming you didn't bone the phone with the files you tried.

Yes, i think your right, if the mods wanna move this to Q&A, please feel free to do so... dont wanna get anyone strted on that rant, lol... but no everything ive tried so far has just put me down temporarily and ive been able to reflash stock ICS from samsung using the .tar file in ODIN, thank god! i just cant seem to find the one that works right..

Yes you can update it...... But you will lose root.

I need to clear some thing for you, rooting does not give you access to download apps free from Google Play. So you should remember that also. I am saying this because you said so-

Oh and please don't post links to cracked apps or wares sites. Mods are very strict about this. If you are unhappy with stock ICS, just go to the development section and check out some custom ROMs. And please be patient - JB is coming in May.

For that, you have to flash a pre rooted rom using flash tool.... If you are planning on upgrading to ICS firmware, no need of flashing pre - rooted rom.. Every ICS firmware on Xperia S can be rooted easily (1 minute work).. So update you phone using PC companion or flashtool and then root it...

Root is completely different from jailbreak...
There is no jailbreak for Android...
In Android JB means 'Jelly Bean' aka android 4.1

-No theres no reason to tick repartition unless you're flashing a 3 part firmware.
-im pretty sure it doesnt have to be carrier locked
-jb update for us was a disaster :/
You thought pretty wrong. Many people left xda because of the community :/

Nice one, JB, is running smooth and quick, after reading about a ram hack on this site , which has increased my max ram to 624mb instead of
a mere 482mb I was left with after updating to JB, so for now I shall play with this until I get bored then it will be time to bite the bullet and come into the light and join the ever growing community that believe in freedom.... thanks for your help Teddytsen

Custom ROM AXES ROM v.1 (Android nougat) on Modem Android Oreo???

Friends (My A520W) I have a doubt because when I installed a Custom ROM Android 7 on the modem in Android 8 I'm going the IMEI?
There is some way to recover the IMEI in that Custom ROM
There is some way to work like this or it is impossible????'
Why is the IMEI broken?

your phone is dead. samsung will reject it.
offline store will ask you to throw your phone away.
but i, i will pay for your phone. us$10?

You need to flash android Nougat bootloader and modem. Those two versions need to be the same as the android version. There is a guide in the guides section that can help you. Also, you can't install earlier version of bootloader and modem if those are the newest versions right now. If that is the case, you can install an 8.1 custom ROM and it should be fine.
