Need help finding compatible ROM

Ok so I have US Cellular's version of the Samsung Galaxy SII Epic 4g Touch (SCH-R760).
Long story short I messed up my build.prop folder and am stuck in a bootloop. I'm trying to find the stock ROM to flash with ODIN for my model but cant find it because its an obscure model. Does anyone know where I can find the stock SCH-R760 ROM, or a ROM compatible with my phone?
I'd even be cool with a custom ROM like Cyanogenmod, as long as its able to be flashed via ODIN and is compatible with my phone. Thanks in advance!

here ya go

thank you so much! worked like a charm. i really appreciate the help. i made sure to save the rom files to my computer as well as performing a nandroid backup to prevent this from happening again. also, i was wondering if theres a stable ICS rom compatible for my phone yet. i searched around for it, but i dont trust my judgement.
If not ICS, what is a good souped-up fast custom ROM?

Can't go wrong with calk's E4GT EL29 ROM. http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1332837

do not flash any of the e4gt roms. even though our phones are similar, they're not an exact match. don't do it.

So then what custom roms CAN i flash?

Ones that are made for your phone, obviously. Not gonna find them here though. Your phone is new and on a smaller carrier so development is going to be slow. I'm sure if you give it some time there will be a few ROMs that pop up. Just enjoy the stock ROM for now- root it, debloat it, toss some tethering into the mix. You'll be fine.

That link I put up has all the custom stuff I could find for your phone. Mainly CM7, CM9, Miui and AOKP.

Thanks again guys. Sorry Root i didnt realize that was on that thread i shouldve read the whole thing. Im good for the time being. Metalhead ive done all that so far rooted, debloated tether installed, and minor build.prop tweaks. I appreciate all the responses!

So it would seem that my gps doesnt work now. Any suggestions? Maybe an update/zip that ibcan flash via cwm?

CM 11
I have an sch-r760 on Alltel. I am running dastin1015's Villuminati CM 11 for the D-710. It is running flawlessly. I have voice/text/mms/data all working.

Any D710 ROM will work

Cleaning up Custom Kernel flashes

Okay lets say im on stock everythings 100% stock and i want to flash a custom recovery kernel that has init.d support, custom boot ani support, and add blocking ect..... ok so i flash it lets say........then i lets say i revert back to my stock recovery and kernel......okay now here is the question.......is there anyway i can clean up what the custom kernel installs? Is there a need to clean up? I want to add my own tweaks so i dont want anything bumping code or have multiple code in my phone i want it nice and clean.
Thank you

Your question is confusing but bottom line if you want to start fresh do a clean installation.
Why anybody here would want a stock setup is beyond my comprehension.

Exactly my point i want it fresh and ill do my own thing but i need these custom recovery kernels to gain root or when i need to flash a zip in cwm so after im done kernel riding somebody else is work please take all the belonings with you brought with you when i flash you out. Its in view of my comprehension that these builds dont have a fresh way to gain root access for example like using one click root or an apk to root. they made them in the past before for us sgs2 users.

Use a pre-rooted Odin one click and you get root w/o recovery. There are rooted 1clicks all the way thru fi27. If u use a no-data version all your apps and settings will remain after flash.

Ok now I understand a little more what you want. I think you should spend more time reading and browsing the development sections for more info. I think Agat63 has been packaging stock kernels lately for those who prefer this.

lol yea.. theres plenty of ways. ifor one use mobile odin whenever i need to fllash a kernel.. you can switch between all the kernels you want and maintain root

[Q] Where's this Phone At?

Ok so I just got this D710 Epic 4G touch. With some of the info I have read I'm guessing that it's kinda easy to brick these if you use the wrong method to flash a rom if it's before the source release & I'm not sure about where this phone is at. It has the Leaked(FF02) ICS Rom & Stock Recovery on it. I am not sure when this was released.
What I want to do is put phone on a good stable stock rom that everything works to get a good base & nandroid backup. Then I want to go to a good stable ICS or JB rom for my daily driver. Can I just Odin a OTA Stock Debloated Rooted Rom back it up then go from there?
Right now this phone's radio will turn off for a few seconds at times. This morning my phone rang so I answered it that's when the phone's radio turned off so that made me hang up on a Customer when I answered the Phone=NOT GOOD
I want/need something that fully works. Like the GPS works & the radio don't turn off n all that jazz.

A daily driver stock JB ROM will be leaked at some point today. Rooted versions also in the works. Keep an eye out for FK23 threads.

Also the radio problem looks like the eg30 radio. There was massive loss of signal on that one. Try something more updated. Like fi27 modem.

Thanks
:good: Alright thank you guys.
So I can flash what ever rom I want using the one click odin method? Like this Stock rooted rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1721229

I personally would look for fI27 but yes. And one click is always recommend if your not 100 percent sure of what your doing.

I plan to do this tomorrow, help please?

Hey guys, i would like to know how to pick the right kernel for a specific Rom.
My goal is to Root and flash my Galaxy nexus (4.3 Stock) Running on the Videotron.com Carrier (I would suppose its GSM, i have a simcard) with paranoid android, and franco kernel.
My questions are as follows,
1- Are Franco kernel and paranoid android compatible?
2- Will it really help me on Ram and Battery life.
3- Can someone please explain to me how to pick the right firmware, the right kernel, and google apps version.
This is my 3rd android phone, and i always needed help with this, but i would like to learn it myself. (i am not a pc noob, i just never played with phones)
This is my phone right now

By the way, i am willing to donate when it gets done.

1. You have to use the correct version of any kernel that matches your OS version. So if you are on 4.3 use any 4.3 kernel.
2. Custom kernels usually help with battery life but you will have to try many different kernels to see which is best for you.
3. Like I said in answer no. 1 everything should match the OS you are on. If you are on 4.3 then you will need to use a kernel that is for 4.3 and gapps that are for 4.3, if you on 4.2.2 then use 4.2.2 kernel/gapps.
PS- I am not sure what you mean by "donating when it gets done" but feel free to donate to our great devs

Hi,
I have a GNex from videotron. Rooted it 20 minutes after getting it from videotron store
Yes, it's a gsm. The model is maguro.
I was on paranoidandroid 3 weeks ago and it really cool.
You need to download their rom from the dev section. There is a link to download gapps in the same thread.
If you want to keep it simple, no need to flash any kernel. Stock PA kernel is fine.
Happy flashing

Sprint S3 stock without root will not take OTA

So, I was approached by someone asking me to take a stab at repairing their phone. They have a Sprint SGS3, and the owner is, well, less than versed in reading through XDA and determining exactly what steps they've taken to modify their phone.
Suffice it to say, I have a bit of a diagnostic challenge on my hands.
Their story is that they rooted and installed a custom ROM on their phone, and has apparently spent the last week or so fighting with their device to return to stock. I've been told that the ROM is stock, and the recovery is also stock. They apparently want to return to stock and take the KitKat OTA, and have nothing to do with rooting. Though, House says, "everybody lies". I'm assuming there's something else I should be looking at to check whether or not they're deliberately omitting a step they took, or perhaps something they didn't realize/forgot they did.
I have yet to get the device in my hands, but when I do, what should I be looking for, exactly? I haven't modified many Samsung phones in the past, mostly just HTC devices, so I'm not sure what I'm looking for. Poking around the forum, I see some mentions of a Flash Counter and ODIN and some other utilities, but I'm not sure what I should really be using to try to fix the phone. I'd also like to maintain the ability to root their ROM in the future if possible, just in case the owner goes back on their root-bashing.
Thanks for reading! If you guys ever need a hand with an HTC device, I'd be more than glad to give you a hand there. :laugh:

If they're on a stock ROM, you could hook it up to Samsung Kies and do a "firmware upgrade and initialization" under the Tools menu. That should restore a completely wiped stock ROM w/ stock recovery, as well.

The bootloader will still read at modified status, and if your acquaintance's phone has Knox on it, I wouldn't try the flash counter reset.
