Hey if anyone was willing to help me. I'm on agat's recovery for FI27. I'm having trouble flashing roms. Is it the recovery or is it me. And if you guys would recommend a rom that lasts at least 10hrs. On stock battery that would be great. Preferably ics or jellybean.

Stock JB (rooted) worked for 10+ hrs for me with moderate calls and wi-fi.
What kind of trouble are you having with flashing ROMs? FI27 should be one of the more stable versions out there!

Yes same here currently running GA10 stock rooted. Battery lasts all day with normal use. For me thats at least 2 hours of screen time which can include games or nav. Also some light texting and calls and bluetooth audio.
Today I'm at 6 hours up, 70% left with 45 mins screen time.
Does it give you an error code or message?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
It says "status 7error" or "bad" but mostly "installation aborted" on multiple recoveries. Sorry it took so long to reply back. At the movies. And then grocery store.

Ok so i wasn't completely detailed with my last post. I've tried flashing pretty much all the jellybean roms available for this phone, with a fair amount of ics roms.
When i go to recovery i first do the wipes. Then i try to flash. Only kernels or recoveries successfully flash. is it a bad zip.
Ps. I have to download directly to my phone cause. I don't have enough patience for Centry Links 75kbps download speeds. If there's a problem with that. Feel free to let me know on anything I'm asking about. I'm open to any information. I've only been able to flash Lightweight v0.5 and after the aroma installer it gets stuck in bootloop. Sooooo annoying.

I usually get those errors when trying to flash from a stock kernel. try changing kernels and see if that helps. I've had good luck with FK 23 and EL26.

I have tried EL26. The Odin one-click method for FK23 does not read on my computer. It's weird. Ot always says error. Is there anyway to get the zip of FK23 and flaah that zip through a recovery.

Did you resolve your issue? Jelly bean is working for many on this phone, way better than ics ever could. So far as I know the only safe way to get jb is to do the one chick, QbKing head a video on YouTube with some helpful explications, look it up it may help you out.
And if you found a solution post back and share.

Hey sorry it took sooo long to respond back. I've been busy, had to go on an overnighter for scouts.
So what I did was download the Cm 10.1 ROM file and gapps. I followed Qbking's video on how to install. Worked perfectly. So now I know that it's just the ROM files that I have are bad zips.

Look for the EL29 restore thread. After the restore instructions are instructions and a link for the EL29 kernel repacked with CWM. Sorry xda app is fc'ng when I try to copy the link. Stay away from ROM manager and CWM touch recovery. If you're going to flash cm9 make sure you flash cm7 from Rootzwiki first to get the original CWM recovery.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Also, if coming back from ICS to GB use sfhub's EL29 restore method. It's the safest way to revert and you can restore a GB nandroid once you reinstall the repacked EL29 kernel.

I think your best bet would try and do a fresh re-flash of your current ROM (using Calkulin's format all) , or Odin to stock then see if the issue still occurs. Of course make a Nandroid Backup if you do.
thanks I'll try that but I'm thinking the cyanogenmod 9 alpha 3 first. Been waiting on that for a while

That's fine, I was just saying the current ROM in case you wanted to stay on it. Perfect time to give any other ROM a shot and start fresh.
Just be careful and read the instructions first.
I flash other roms all the time thats not the issue feom what i understand teying to flash different modems till u find the one that works best is the way to go i have flashed about 5 so gb modems seem to work better fyi u can use ics and gb modems on a ics rom but if u r on a gb rom u cant use ics modems

not entirely sure what is wrong with the new OTA but I have also have problems with the new update and when I took it to sprint, the tech said the same thing "you should root it". I told them I should but it's not my fault of hardware or software issues and after some talk (I know the guys at the store), they helped me get a replacement. Hopefully the replacement doesn't have any problems too.

The story is coming from Samsung directly. You think sprint is going quick to get jb out to us when we were the last to get ics? I'll be very surprised if they update us at all.
Sent from behind you.
a fix for what? If you don't like the ota run one of the fine, bug free ff18 based roms like blue kuban or goodness. Try cm9 or aokp you don't like those. The only reason you have a "buggy" ics build is because you choose to. That said we didn't see all of these complaints when people were running the ff18 leak, the only thing that has changed is the people running it... furthermore why are you posting on xda asking for a patch? Go to sprint users or sprint forums if that's all you're concerned with and want to complain, they'll listen to you there, I thought this was the place where we solved our own problems... not that I think there's anything wrong with ff18.... now flame away instead of spending the time to search and figure out why you're having the issues you're having when plenty of people are running ff18/ff18 based builds without difficulty or issue

I posted on xda because people seen to get answers and everything else before people find out. Im not asking a question for devs to fix it im asking the community in the xda q&a section. And it's for our phone correct? So that's why im in the xda forum asking the question.

if the modem is the problem don't flash the ics ones, stay on el29 modem or whatever works for you, you can use the older modems without issue on ics

I rooted using Framaroot and flashed Garwynn's+ agats recovery using mobile odin.
Fellow Virgin Mobile user here
As for my rom i'm still on stock TouchWiz although i do have Agat's Recovery installed. I'm looking around and trying to compare which ROM to flash, and so far i'm leaning towards ReVolt, or i might try and give the official CM 10.1 nightlies a go

I tried that one a few months ago and had GPS issues.
So far for me the most reliable custom ROM has been Dastin's WFTN and the official CM10.1 releases, though YMMV.
Even then I wound up flashing back to stock TouchWiz because of data speeds being faster on TouchWiz/GB28 than on any CM10/ICS or Gingerbread modem I tried.
Plus there were graphics corruption issues with GPS Test+ on every custom ROM I tried.
I seem to recall reading somewhere that it has to do with Mali driver issues, but I'm really not certain why.
As far as Virgin Mobile goes, I've been with them for 4 years come January and I'm not going to make it 5.
Locally, Sprint's network is crap and now that I have a real smartphone instead of a glorified music player like the Intercept, the connection problems are too glaring to overlook.
Come next January I'll probably have a used E4GT for sale cheap. :laugh:
I'm using the EG30 modem with Dirty Unicorns and my data speeds are a little better then when I was on GB28.
The speeds that I get from speedtest on non-JB modems are very close to the GB28 modem, but not quite as fast under ideal conditions.
This part I understand as the EvDO version connected to under 'About Phone>Status. is A:6 on all of the non-JB modems while it says A:7 or A:8 on GB28.
I could live with that, but the other speed issue is that no matter which modem I've tried, I get a pause during testing speeds about a quarter of the way through the DL test that looks like Mount Everest on the DL graph.
I have no idea if it's something unique to my phone, a glitch in CM, or something to do with Sprint's ****ty local network buildout, but it's easily reproducible on several different custom ROM/modem combinations.
But as I said in my first post, Your Mileage May Vary™.
Running cm10.2 on my titanium s2. Anyone have a link to that cm9 VM MMS fix?

I'm currently running Carbon Rom. I was on the official CM 10.1 nightlies until they were not longer nightly...more sporadic and if-y. So, I switched.

The first post in a ROM's thread is called the Original Post, or OP. Every rom OP has detailed instructions on how to install, or flash that particular ROM. Good luck, and just make sure you are flashing e4gt roms only, and since I see you are on VM, after you flash, Google how to change the mmsc url so you can send mms. Enjoy!
