[HOW TO] GA10 STOCK Rooted from FL16 STOCK Rooted - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Can any of us resist trying the next ROM leaked from Samsung when it can be done without losing root or generating that annoying yellow triangle every time you reboot? Not me!
Thanks to SexTape, Agat & Leaderbuilder, I went from FL16 to GA10 quickly & painlessly by doing the following using Mobile ODIN Pro:
Installed the GA10 Modem from my SD card.
Rebooted and saw that GA10 modem works fine with FL16 ROM.
Installed GA10 ROM
After the auto reboot, went through the usual setup of my Gmail account & app restoring.
Tested WiFi, BlueTooth, several apps including Beautiful Widgets which installs on SD card. All fine.
Used Quick Reboot app (free at PlayStore) to reboot into CWM and as expected, it was the stock 3e.
Rebooted and used Mobile ODIN to install Agat's FL16 v0.3.2 recovery after making sure I had a checkmark in the box to clean the Davlik Cache during the install process.
SUCCESS!
Rebooted into ROM then rebooted into Agat's recovery, made a backup & rebooted into GA10.
Bottom line; Agat's FL16 0.3.2 recovery appears to work perfectly with GA10 Stock ROM
AND by following the steps above, I did NOT lose Root or make the yellow triangle appear!
Glenn
P.S. Here are some additional install details provided by Leaderbuilder:
When you grab the GA10 modem and the .tar file make sure you've extracted the ROM tar from the zip file! It should be approx. 886MB.
Place both on you external SD card.
Boot into a current CWM recovery (I'm assuming Agat's FL16 repack) and flash the modem. Then reboot.
Now open Mobile Odin and scroll down to 'Open File' and select the CODE_SPH-D710.GA10_818252_REV00_user_low_ship.tar.md5 file.
Make sure you 'enable everroot' and 'inject super user' checked too! Use Mobile ODIN Pro Version and you should have no issues.
You will be told that the 'following partitions have been set:
Kernel, system, data, cache, param, modem, hidden.
Then choose to 'flash the firmware' let it check the MD5sum too.
After checking it will reboot and flash the ROM
Remember Mobile Odin does not flash modems; that is why you have to do it first/separately.

Sweet thank you

Yes, your rom and modem are now GA10 but your kernel is now FL16.

Moved to more appropriate General section.

You know, one other thing I noticed is that Mobile Odin can't repartition or flash bootloaders.
So I still have to recommend going to the PC at least once in a while to flash.
Also, the point is valid - without flashing the kernel you're not getting all of the GA10 benefits.
For example, the Exynos exploit patch is in the kernel.
Easier is to do my rooting method for one clicks:
1) Flash stock kernel
2) Flash Agat's repack and then apply subusybox.zip
(Can post link again if needed)
3) Flash back to stock kernel

Going from EF02 Plus to ACS 1.1.2

I want to make sure I have the correct steps before I switch.
1. MyRootBackup, Titanium back up, nandroid backup
2. Copy SFR 1.1.2, Journaling on, rfs2ext4, vision kernel, and theme to zip card
3. boot to d/l mode
4. Odin EC05 modem
5. boot to cwm 3.1.0.1
6. wipe everything 3 times
Now this is where I am not sure of the chain of events I should follow.
7. Convert to ext4
8. flash kernal
9. flash rom
10. reboot to make sure all is good
11. reboot to cwm
12. flash journaling on and theme
13. reboot should be good to go?
I recently moved from midnight EE03 back to 5.3 EC05
copied ROM to sd card
i odin'd back to ec05 stock.
booted to get gps lock
one click rooted with 3.0.2.5
booted to cwm (auto ext4)
when finished flashed ec05 rom
i prefer to start @ step 1 to be sure everything is cleared and reset.
Make sure you have cwm3.1.0.1. Installed.
1)Flash the rom (the rom converts to ext 4)
2) flash a kernel (make sure the kernel supports ext4
3) boot the phone
4) reboot into recovery
5) flash the theme.
No need to odin inless you want the ec05 modem

Sweet thanks was hoping you would see this and give me a answer. Thought I saw something in OP of ACS 1.1.2 that had to be EC05. I have 3.1.0.1 already. I have tendency to over complicate things.
Again Thanks!
It has been confirmed the newer and older modems work

What is the difference between flashing from a TAR file using Odin and Clockwork Mod?

Hello,
I was going to try out a near stock root but it requires clockwork mod. The only overwrite of my previous stock was using Odin and a tar file.
Can someone help me out and explain why or if there is much a difference between a tar overwrite and using CWM?
Also can you just install CWM on the stock and then flash it?
tar files are what ODIN uses to flash your phone. ODIN is an application that runs on your PC and communicates with your phone over the USB cable using ODIN protocol. ODIN can pretty much flash anything on your phone, so just saying you used ODIN to flash your phone doesn't tell folks trying to answer your question anything useful. You need to tell use which tar file you flashed.
CWM is a recovery program that runs on your phone. It takes signed zip files and installs them. It can also flash things like kernel and ROM, and with some versions of the kernel can flash full modems as well. It can't flash as much as ODIN can, but it can flash most of what you would find useful.
If you started from stock, you can root your phone and install CWM using the Auto Root thread in my signature.
I've been using sfhub's scripts for the last few weeks. Highly recommended and well documented.

Thanks. The file I think I ran before was acs-eg30-stock-kernel-pulled.tar. My phone got the OTA update to 2.3.6 and I'd like to root it again so I can tether again. I was going to install Calkulin's Stock Rooted EL13 Rom as I think that will enable to me to tether again.

That would root you but you would need to root your current version first and install CWM (you would have lost root after the EK02 OTA upgrade) before you could install that.
If you want a complete EL13 system, my suggestion is you use Titanium to backup your user data, then ODIN the FULL EL13 rooted system. This will give you EL13 Modem, Kernel, and ROM (pre-rooted) in a single operation.
[ODIN][TAR] SPH-D710.EL13_CL806482 (EL13 Modem/Kernel/ROM - Full Restore - Rooted)
Then restore your data.
There is also a "NoData" version of the ODIN tar file, which is the same as above, but doesn't reset your User Data (meaning you keep your existing User Data). I would suggest the latter for folks who know what they are doing because you may need to clear dalvik-cache and possibly android market data.
The full install that resets your user data is a "cleaner" install but both will work.
You'll be rooted after installing that. If you want CWM, just use the Auto Root thread:
[ROOT][NCIQ][EG30/EG31/EK02] Auto root your existing stock ROM (w/o ODIN/ROM Flash)
and choose Option C to install EL13+CWM.
Thanks - I'll try to do that today.

Just so I'm sure I know what you think would be best for me, I should pretty much do this http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1394332 and then I won't need to do the CWM thing?

Given where you are currently at and considering you want to end up with a rooted el13, that would be the fewest steps.
So far no real issues. I did have the marketplace issue which is mentioned in the thread and clearing it took care of it. I've only played with my phone for about 30 minutes since flashing but I should know more by tomorrow.
Thanks for your help.
After using this one for a day, I'd probably recommend not using it quite yet. I've had lots of dropped calls, inability to use the internet on a regular basis and GPS seems way off. I've been using my phone for a few months now and haven't had this kind of bad luck in the past even with my previous rooted version of this phone worked great. While it was certainly easy, I don't think this version of the ROM is ready yet.
I'm sure the person who created it knows 1000 times more about android than I do but this one has problem with voice/data that needs a little work still so I'd hold off on it until that is tweaked. Or it could be that Sprint is having some serious issues with their network in Connecticut.

[ROM][ODIN][TAR]SPH-D710 FH23 (FH23 Modem/Kernel/ROM - Full Restore - Unrooted)

First off, a huge thanks to sextape for this latest FH23 leak!
Thanks also goes to sfhub (for teaching me how to create Odin One-Click.exe files and creating the original thread I'm using as a template for this one), Garwynn for jumping in and helping me with all of these, Agat63 (for helping me get the hang of what sfhub started teaching me), chris41g (for hosting all my work here and with the Modem and Kernel Repositories), and to everyone else in our community who makes this possible!
This Odin One-Click.exe contains the Stock FH23 Kernel, Modem and ROM for the Samsung Epic 4G Touch. They have all been reported as working. I do not have the release notes though so flash and see what has changed.
There has been no change to the ROM from the initial leak. This ROM is NOT rooted. If you would like a rooted version please visit this thread by Garwynn.
This will NOT trigger the Yellow Triangle NOR will it increment the ODIN flash count.
I have provided two versions, one that resets your whole phone to the stock FH23 experience, similar to a factory restore. The other is a No Data version, which is also the stock FH23 but doesn't overwrite your User Data.
Instructions - Thanks to sfhub!
1) Backup anything important and Disable any PINs.
During this process your phone's software will be returned to the Stock setup. All system data will be lost.
To be safe, it is best to archive your backup off your phone, ie on your PC or Dropbox.
1) Install Samsung USB/Android drivers (if necessary). [USB/Android]
2) Download the FH23 Stock ROM.
FH23 Full Stock ROM One-Click.exe (Reset user data)
FH23 Full Stock ROM No Data One-Click.exe (Preserve User Data - do NOT use if downgrading versions)
3) Unzip ROM using 7zip.
4) Start ODIN One-Click.
Navigate to the location where the FH13_Unrooted_Stock_Rom.exe was saved.
Double click on FH13_Unrooted_Stock_Rom.exe. *On Vista or newer, you may need to right-click on the file and Run as Administrator.
5) Place phone in Download Mode.
Power down phone.
Wait for capacitative button lights to turn off.
Simultaneously Press and Hold [Power]+[Volume Down] until confirmation screen appears.
Press [Volume Up] to enter Download mode.
6) Connect USB cable to PC and phone.
Odin should show a yellow COM port in the second column. If you do not see a yellow COM port, you may need to run the ODIN One-Click as Administrator and/or unplug/plugin the USB cable after starting ODIN One-Click.
7) Start ODIN flash process.
Press [Start].
8) Complete - PASS!
Status should change to green PASS! At this point your phone should automatically reboot.
Android Instructions
Download and install ZArchiver on your phone. Use it to unpack the ODIN OneClick 7zip self-extracting exe file (long press on the 7zip exe. Select "Open As Archive". Select the One-Click.exe and then select Extract). Use Mobile ODIN to Open File the SPH-D710.FH23_CL1057614_REV02_user_low_ship-UNROOTED.exe. FYI - Modem might not flash consistently with Mobile Odin
The boot process will take slightly longer than usual during which time you'll see the 4G logo screen.
For NoData install:
- If you are getting random force closes, wipe cache/dalvik-cache
- If you have troubles with Android Market, clear data from menu->applications->all->market->clear data
- If you have troubles booting into Android, perform factory reset in ICS using the ODIN OneClick Factory Reset tool. Do NOT perform factory resets using stock recovery or privacy->reset, at least until you read about the EMMC superbrick/lockup bug and understand what the trigger points are and what you are exposing yourself to.

How about the unrooted NODATA once click?
Were there issues with FH23 that would make me want to wait until 28 leaks?
So how is this ROM? Did they finally fix the scrolling issue? Lol.

Unrooted finished uploading this morning. I just have been swamped with work and haven't had a chance to update the OP. Sorry!
FH23 seems pretty stable. Don't know if we'll be seeing FH28 but even if we do I'd say give 23 a shot.

Silly question I've had for your one clicks.. Thanks, they are great btw!!
So, I notice the recovery won't have "wipe dalvik", do I need to flash with a different recovery for this, if so is any specific one recommended as I know they will flash over the entire kernel.

The way the one-clicks work you don't need to worry about Dalvik cache or Recovery or anything. The one-click actually takes the full partition file and basically erases the original (from your phone) and pushes its partition data into the empty space left behind.
If after flashing a stock ROM you prefer to have a custom recovery you should check out my one-click kernels over at the Kernel Repo.
Feel free to send me a PM or anything if you have any questions.

Thanks! Will do, I'm coming back on the Stock ROMS after being on CM for a while, due to it still not being 100%.
I really haven't needed to wipe the cache but since you mentioned it in theinstructions I was looking for it...
Thanks for the continued support(And all the other devs/modders doing this for fun).

[Q] Phone Won't Boot Into CWM Recovery

So, I have flashed CWM Recovery and CWM Touch Recovery onto my Epic 4G Touch. Rom Manager says both are installed. However, when I boot into recovery, I get the stock recovery. I've searched and searched and all I have found are people who aren't pushing the right buttons and others with junk answers that are no help at all, like instructions on how to flash the recovery.
Even if I reflash using Rom Manager or any other recovery installer, it boots to the stock recovery. It's as if any changes to the file system are being completely ignored.
The weird thing is, if I flash StockCWM-EL26 or rogue_ET-recovery-1.2.2-FB27-rc0 using Odin/Mobile Odin and get to whichever one I flashed once, then either the phone won't boot at all or subsequent reboots result in the stock recovery once again.
To reiterate, I have *no* problem booting the phone and I have *no* problem getting to recovery... it's the wrong recovery, but still.
Oh, and I'm using HyDrA ROM.

As I said, it either works once and never again or never at all no matter what I use to flash it.
Venum's Hydra rom? Wow, talk about a flash back..
Anyway, have you tried the el26 kernel one click?
No, but I don't imagine it would be any different than the Odin flash.
At any rate, I have an addendum. Flashing Rogue 1.2.2, the one that works - I can't get 1.5.0 to work at all (no boot, no recovery, only download mode), doesn't magically disappear, but it doesn't mount my external SD card and I can't open System Settings/Storage - I just can't win.
Would you mind listing the steps of flashing and items being flashed?
Only reason a custom won't stick is that you're flashing something behind it. In my mind at least..
First Time
<Download Mode>
Flash EL26 CWM Recovery - Phone no longer boots to OS. Can only get to CWM Recovery or Download Mode.
<Recovery Mode>
Wipe.
Flash HyDrA twice as per instructions.
Flash GApps.
Flash Multi-DPI Play Market while I'm at it.
Reboot.
Setup ROM.
Attempt to get to Recovery - got stock recovery.
Decided to try again without wiping. Same results.
Decided to try something:
<Download Mode>
Flash EL26 CWM Recovery - Phone no longer boots to OS. Can only get to CWM Recovery or Download Mode.
<Recovery Mode>
Made a NAND backup of /system and /data.
Flash HyDrA twice as per instructions.
Flash CWM Touch Recovery - Recovery takes effect immediately.
Restore the NAND backups.
Reboot.
Attempt to get to Recovery - got stock recovery.
Another thing:
<Download Mode>
Flash Rogue recovery.
Reboot.
Attempt to get to Recovery - got Rogue recovery - So far so good.
Flash CWM Touch Recovery - Recovery takes effect immediately.
Reboot.
Attempt to get to Recovery - got Rogue recovery - Interesting, but I can only access the external SD card from Recovery.
Flashed back to EL26.
Reinstalled HyDrA.
Restored the NAND backups.
(The Touch Recovery version is 5.8.1.5).
ROM Manager
Attempt to flash either CWM Recovery or CWM Touch Recovery.
Reboot.
Attempt to get to Recovery - got stock recovery.
Here is a list of my apps if you want that, too.
https://www.dropbox.com/s/k67l6mb294ruyug/apps-list.txt
I'm hesitant on trying anything else because it's a pain to restore it if I can't boot to the OS.
Just went back to Venums thread.
:edit: Briefly reading the thread, you'll need to have and AOSP kernel to run the Rom, so no, EL26 will not work.
:2d edit: This is out of the second post in that thread. - *If you are restoring a nandroid that you backed up via the above process, you will need to wipe cache and dalvik, then flash an AOSP ICS kernel or the ROM wont boot because it is backed up with the EL26 kernel. Then reboot.
Hydra comes with FD26 kernel. As per the OP.
I don't know, and haven't tested, if Hydra will run with EL26 cwm. But you need to add that to the last step.
But that's why you're going back to stock. It's part of the package.
Please, please, please; STOP using Rom Manager to flash a recovery.
I see a AOSP/TWRP repack by Times Infinity in the Kernel Repo that you could try, But I have not read the Hydra thread to see if Venum had tested this prior to discontinuing support.

From what I'm gathering from his OP, he wants to have a custom after flashing Hydra.. Gonna have to be an AOSP repack to run with a custom. I didn't really gather that until he listed the flashing steps he's doing.

Right. And I would have no problem just reflashing EL26 /w CWM if it would actually boot into the OS.

Yeah, anything that's not an AOSP kernel/recovery isn't gonna work. So, if Time's aosp repack doesn't work, you'll have to run the included kernel.

Odin wouldn't install it, if that makes a difference. It's not that the install failed and I had to start over, again.
Well, since my touch isn't my daily use phone at the moment, I'll test that setup tonight.
I decided to try the One-Click of the FF18 v2 kernel and it flashed successfully.
However, as with Rogue, I only have no external SD card and no access to Settings/Storage. TWRP is pretty, but if I can't use my SD card, I'd rather use the stock kernel.

However, as with Rogue, I only have no external SD card and no access to Settings/Storage. TWRP is pretty, but if I can't use my SD card, I'd rather use the stock kernel.

My apologies on not getting back with you on this last night.
But the SD issue is also seen on the repacks with JB. Depending on when and how FF18 v2 was built (without source at the time?) could be similar to the issues with current repacks.
I'd have to refer those issues/questions to Agat or Garwynn..

[ROM][ZIP]Stock Rooted Deodexed/Odexed FL24 with SuperSU/Busybox 1.20.2

Just like the hotspot mod I am sure you don't need FL24 but for the sake of continuity I am providing it. Will do Tar files later on.
First of all a huge thanks to Sextape for the FL24 release. Thanks to Calkulin for use of the install script. Thanks to Chainfire for SuperSU. Thanks to Mattix724 for the install instructions which I tweaked slightly.
Flash or Odin this to get Deodexed/Odexed stock FL24 with latest root (SuperSU), su binary and Busybox 1.20.2. These Do Not include a kernel. The Odin Tars include everything else.
There is a version for no data wipe and data wipe. Make sure you don't get them mixed up.
All of the zips wipe cache and dalvik for you so no need to do that separately.
I am not responsible for anything that happens to your phone. You do this at your own risk.
Also note that if you are using Agat's FH13 or FH23 stock repacks, do not flash the data wipe zips. It will not boot. For some reason those kernels can't be wiped or factory reset.
This is an Ice Cream Sandwich Rom. As I stated earlier it does not include a kernel. So if you are coming from a Rom that isn't ICS you need to first install a Touchwiz based safe kernel. Like Agat's source kernel. So copy the ICS kernel to your phone. Boot into your recovery. Flash the ICS kernel and then flash this Rom. Or if you are using Odin just Odin the ICS kernel and Rom back to back.

Thank you sir! Appreciate it.
You should get yourself one of those Recognized Contributor titles for all the work you've done.
I'd try getting mine but I gotta wait until a small infraction rolls off my account in about 2 weeks.

About a year or so ago I was PM'd in on some discussions about the Dev section. So right after that I thought I would go ahead and submit my Recognized Developer request since I was included in the talks. I was denied :crying: . Didn't realize there was a contributor option but after that I didn't really care anymore. Just kept on doing what I do.
