I was in love with EG31 for a while, but, EL16 ended up being better in the long run... EL26 didn't impress me so I didn't keep it for more than a couple hours... But given all of the positive responses I'm flashed it and I'm going to "let it settle" for a few days.
... I'm skeptical that "letting it settle" has any effect, but, it seemed to for EL16. Anyone that has any technical explanation (for or against) would be awesome.

I may be crazy... it could all be in my head or just some luck with the GPS process, but since I put on the EL26 stock rom, kernal, and modem (then rooted) it seems like GPS is much better. Satelites synced in few seconds when outside.
Anyone else? I have not applied any of the GPS fix to the stock EL26 yet, may not need too. Have not done any type of testing other than just using navigation and noticing the faster GPS connection (from GPS being completely off too btw).

The gps app is gps status found in the market.
As far as el26 modem for me it was worse. I used it for 2 days and my speeds were half of what el13 was. I was having worse service and some ghost Los where it just wouldn't connect. Still liking calkulins 2.7 but had to revert my modem back to el13.
I wish Sprint would release an OTA update for this already.

I'm currently running blazer 4.1 with fc07 modem and gunslinger kernel. No matter what Rom I use, gb or ics, as well as testing with different modems, my gps will lock the first couple times but after coming out of a long sleep it won't lock at all. I've tried gps status with no luck, as well as tried the el29 gps fix when I was running that modem. The only thing that seems to work is booting into recovery and clearing cache and dalvik. This will get my gps to lock until my phone goes into another long sleep, then back to nothing. Does anyone know of any other fixes I could try?
Sent from my Blazing fast Epic 4G Touch
Have you cleared AGPS? Also try using a different kernel.
I've tried every combination of everything. I just reboot and that never fails to work. A little annoying, but, no big deal.
I figured it was just a bug in the ICS leaks. Mine also does the same.
Yes, I've reset agps and downloaded through gps status but nothing helps. I'll try a different kernel next, but even when I was on the ics roms and using the stock kernels it would do the same thing.

I had gps lock issues too, but after trying most modems I found one that doesn't seem to have any problems. Make sure you update your profile and prl after flashing modems /kernels

Sounds like u might just have a hardware problem and need a new phone. My first phones GPS was awful and wouldn't lock and my replacement is perfect. Trust me Samsung phones are all different. My epic touch is different than yours and so on. Take it to sprint and get another one.

Never had a problem with a lock on any GB Roms with any kernel or Modem...Ever since I flashed ICS Roms tho...is when it started...None of the (GPS) programs to improve locking would work...The last two leaks for ICS which would be FC06 and FCO7 I've been gettin locks...So its not a hardware problem...One sure way to get it to work is to restore a GB Rom with EL29 get a lock leave GPS Open boot into Recovery and restore a Nandroid Backup for the ICS Rom you were on...Open GPS and you will lock... this worked every time...But now since the last two leaks of the two previous ones I mentioned I haven't had a problem...So its either the Modem or the Kernel...I expect the Modem...The problem is on here a lot of people haven't had locking issues with GPS whether they are on ICS or GB...(Go Figure...)

My GPS worked at one time, but not at all since ICS, and MAYBE the last two revisions of GB. Tried every trick in the book, even goong back to old modems. Hoping this is addressed on software soon, or I may turn the phone in. Not a dealbreaker, but a huge PITA, I do use it somewhat often. Then there's the principle of a defective product.

I have GPS issues on my stock EL29. It was working previously but then I installed the ICS leaks and my GPS stopped working. Went back to complete stock and its still not working. Bummer.
After doing a full wipe and install of the stock rooted el29 tar, I finally got gps to lock successfully multiple times. I left gps locked and flashed blazer 4.1 and all is still good. Do you think its safe to do an advanced restore of data in recovery or should I just restore everything manually?

rebooting after flashing
I'm having a similar issue. I'm coming from KT's slim rom 3.1 to GB27 rooted stock. When it started booting in the middle of the flash - right from download - I knew there was an issue. I tried flashing stock rooted EL29. I tried the EL29 modem, and EL26 CWM direct-boot kernel. I successfully flashed back to slim after a few hours and multiple random reboots, but when I got back into it, it rebooted again constantly! I was looking at the charging animation for a few seconds, then the boot animation, then the charging animation again. That's when I decided that the power button is probably stuck. I did a search and found this. I took the phone completely apart and used tweezers to gently squeeze the metal around the power button. So far, it's working, but I anticipate another random reboot any moment. If you all have any other suggestions, let me know.
Okay. I just got back from Sprint. they tested the battery first, and it is definitely bad. This is a common issue which I am being told has to do with bad official firmware. secondly, the tech installed a "buffer" under the power button, which seems to have resolved the random reboots. Time to get a new battery on Amazon.

The battery issues have nothing to do with bad firmware. It is fully hardware related. They packed 1800mah into a 1500mah battery and to do so had to thin out the cell walls. Heating and cooling makes the cells expand and contract and ultimately making them fail over time, causing the battery to go bad. It has nothing to do with firmware. It is bound to happen to anyone with the E4GT.

Exactly right. Heat is the worst culprit for killing these batteries. Cutting the cell walls to the bsre minimum safety standards was a poor design by Samsung trying to keep the phone as thin as possible while still getting the biggest battery they could squeeze in there.

Graydiggy, the sprint tech was probably referring to ICS, when he said bad firmware .
EK is right, heat is the worst enemy of a battery. That's why you want your phone to be in open ventilated area when charging.

Well, I'm still getting random reboots. It only started happening after I went from AOSP back to TW, and it's happened to me once before on a previous E4GT. It's FUBAR now and going back to AOSP ain't gonna fix it. Is the random rebooting caused by the bad battery? Is the battery bad because of ICS and GB TW, or just the Odin flashing?

I have to disagree. Samsung Kies has the ability to backup all user data including text messages, contacts, all internal SD data, and more. Then you can restore your data after performing the official update.
Why Samsung has released two separate update methods is a mystery to me, I guess Kies downloads the official tar during the update process and that other method includes the tar in a simple exe installer similar to our one-clicks.

Try rest- installing your modem, go to Rwilcos's repository, find Jb roms get a GB08 one click modem and GB27 one click modem download both, extract the GB08 and install. Test your 4g, if it solves the issue test for a while then flash gb27 and see how that goes.

No. I have never drop the phone. I tried again today and once 4g connected, the phone was responsive; but once I saw the arrows light up for data going in or out, it freezes right away at that point.
I think I figured out what caused the freeze. I think it was avast security. After I uninstalled it, 4G was working again. Then when I reinstalled, 4G freezed again. So I uninstalled and it's working again.
Now why would you install something like that on your phone?

For protection. lol. Mainly for the anti-theft feature. I finally have 4G working again. Avast was the problem all this time and I even mentioned it in my first post that 4G stopped working after I updated avast.
