NOTE:
All previous versions that I have worked on will no longer be supported.
Support for this thread will be as time allows, which may not be much.
We've done what we wanted to - leave the E4GT with some very good stuff.

Thats great stuff. Great job garwynn thanks to all whom worked hard on them. Will test sprint variant now for you.

So it is working nice. Loaded per Mobil odin...re started crisp.
Have opened all 60+ apps and fooled round. Started just fine. Wifi sync is fast...3g working. I don't have 4g so can't test. So far its awesome. :beer: :thumbup:

Ditto on the post above..reboot and rec all apps even pd..

4g connected, then disconnected. I went into settings, scanned and then it connected. Went to window at got 8mb down, 2mb up. Gps locked to within 10 ft.

I should also give fair notice... with JB out and it being the final release (from notes I have read) these will be my last foray into E4GT development. I will continue my work on GN2 and am planning on hitting the GS4/GN3 hard this year.
The goal will be to leave the E4GT with the best possible based on what we have... and now with JB we have a lot!

Just curious. Did Samsung remove the line of code that triggers the emmc bug in the ICS kernels?

Their official patch is in now. A little different in coding but same result as we were already doing... disabling secure erase/trim. Just done by eMMC ID now.

Just tested moving apps to sd via Titanium Backup. On stock kernel it would cause apps to disappear but I'm happy to say that all apps are in tact. Great work Garwynn!

Any chance someone can upload a mirror of the tar? The main link is blocked at my work... :S
Otherwise, I'll just have to wait 8 hours! lol

Just to confirm because I have been away from the E4GT forums for a while this is a SAFE JB recovery?
Thanks to Garwynn and Agat you guys rock

Will this give the damn triangle? By stock.. do you mean like the one pulled from a stock device?
by stock i mean compiled from source, and the triangle is just there until you load a custom bootanimation....

shouldnt it be under kernal, not under build number?
no, kernel version is the linux kernel version... which is displayed correctly, though a bit strange looking. the build number is just provided traditionally by a rom, or kernel, or whatever...

I've used up all my thanks for the day on the 2 of you but thanks again. Been waiting on this.
Edit: Well I just flashed so haven't really got to test but my signal and down/upload speeds are WAY better!!!! Another thing I just noticed. I just got a news notification from Sprint Zone which is the first time I've ever gotten something from it since I've rooted.
I flashed this and then flashed back to stock (pulled) and now wifi will not connect.. how do I get back to stock (pulled) with working wifi?
Will be flashing this as soon as I get home.

OK so, I was poking around the EVO 4G forum (I like to check in on my old flashing buddies every once in a while) and seen this ROM that I thought was sick! Its a tablet/phone crossover type thing with CM9.

So.. is there just not enough interest in keeping a tabUI/hybrid rom current??
When AoKPm5 fell off the dev table, I was a little bummed, then PA was ported, and I felt like there was some promissing hope that we would be able to keep the development cruising along for the tabUI/hybrids..
Well.. maybe its just a matter of having the source for the ICS kernel for the E4GT, but with the "source" already floating around.. I'm thinking that the kernel source wasn't the hybrid answer.. I hope I am wrong here though..
Maybe if we have enough voice to say the hybrid roms are still wanted, the development will continue.. :/

ONLY reason why Slim nTrim lost tab UI was cause the Dev who did tab UI stopped working on it, otherwise it would still be there. But Slim n Trim 2.0 has it still
pop into irc and check out my aokp builds. they have it.. and i usually build a new one every day.. of not more than one..

Hey Chris, I've been avoiding TWRP cause I thought it had a more "heavy" process to replace your recovery from TWRP. Is all that is needed to restore back to a backup with agat or cwr recoveries would be to just go back to stock first with a one-click or something? Or is that even needed?
This is the only thing keeping me from testing anything with TWRP.

i dont understand the question? if you flash a rom with twrp you will have twrp, if you flash one with cwm you will have cwm.. its no different, just a different gui.. you dont have to go back to stock. or anything like that

I just thought I had read before that the only way to not run into issues after using TWRP was to go back to stock and then reinstall rom or backup after getting back to stock first.
If you don't have to do that and just factory reset is done from within FF18 (TWRP, CWR or Agats), then my concerns were mute at this point and I should have no problems going back and forth.
I am assuming that you are saying the latter is correct.
Edit: so if the latter is true, then I can flash kernels with different recoveries and they will overwrite eachother no problem? Does mobile Odin work the same if you have TWRP recovery?
The onther thing is that I didn't realize is that you helped or built TWRP, if that is the case, I would feel very comfortable using it, and I also didnt realize you built an FF18/CWR kernel.. I will have to grab that too..

yes i helped Dees_troy with twrp for this device, and I continue to help work on it, I consider it to be a great recovery...
I include it in my AOKP builds.. it includes safety features implemented and designed by Dees_troy and myself..
Those same safety features have been implemented in CM9 alpha6 and recent nightlies as well, so they are also safe.. which means those CWM versions are safe.
Any recovery made by me, Dees_troy, or TeamEpic since the release of TWRP would be considered safe..

IMHO I don't find Tablet UI on a phone useful or desirable, why a tablet UI on a small screen when you can enjoy it at its fullest on a Tablet. Just my opinion no pun intended to anyone. There is a reason to it not being enabled on a phone trust me.

I know some do not like it, but I personally think it looks better smaller, and compact. I do not find it difficult to read as some have described. There are many was to increase font size and still use the compact UI. I don't need to increase however as I like the size it is .. and even though most of the development for that mod has slowed, some roms still have it incorporated to use if desired. I myself have an excellent backup of AoKPm5 with the modded system apps so that everything works perfect.. but its stuck with FF02 as the latest kernel, I haven't tried the latest AoKP kernels with it yet.. maybe m5 will still work with TI, dees_troy & Chris's kernel but I'm not sure..
But anyways, my point is as with most every mod and customization we have for this device, ppl use what they like cause of personal preference and what they like.
You are more that free to not like the tUI mod, but there are still some that like it..

First time flashing in this new age

Hey all, long time lurk, first actual post here though. I used to jump rom to rom back when I had the original Droid on VZW, but that was so long ago, at least in terms of Android Development anyhow. So ffwd to today, I've had my E4GT now for perhaps 2 months, and I've already rooted it, flashed a Team Rouge Recovery to it (cause it was the latest I think), and am on a stock GB EL29 Rom, and I think an EL26 Kernel.
Now, I know that things have complicated so much more since the last time I was savy doing all this, so I'm vague and still learning about all the different things that can be switched in and out, here and there. But I've been too caught up with all of the recent ICS issues that were presented with the leaks and the actual release. I've since found a rom that I'm comfortable with, AOKP 7-13 , but I'm not trying to mess anything up despite having done nothing but read for the past month and a half about what to do and not to do. One thing I am absolutely sure about is that I came into this scene at a horrible time lol, things have been changing as I read them!!
Now! With this rom, is it completely nessasary to use this specific recovery, CWM5? And, is this the recovery in question? If not, please point me in the correct direction.
And "the normal route" that is mentioned in the first information post in that AOKP thread, would that be the flashing of an ICS rom from a GB rom to prevent the emmc problem that was happening, even though such this rom has that feature removed (at least if I read it correctly)
I'm not stupid nor am I completely horrible at following directions, but after feeling like getting the run around just by attempting to piece together information from different sources, it would really just put my mind at ease, and stop the headaches lol, if someone whom this wasn't so...new to could provide me an outline to follow, or at least do this, don't do that pointers.
I know this is long, and thanks for reading. I'm just hoping to get back into the scene, I hate being anxious and not know, <-- ie. my current state

Okay, first of all, AOKP already comes with a recovery (TWRP). However, if you would rather use clockworkmod then you can use this: http://tinyurl.com/7ysnylg Also, in any case where you want to flash a different ICS ROM, I suggest you use el26 CWM.
I'm aware of the TWRP that is included with the AOKP rom (listen to me, slinging around slang like a pro, lol) I only felt I needed to use CWM5 because it specified it in the instal instructions for the rom.
I would assume that I would need the CWM just for switching ICS's in the future, if that does turn out to be what I'll be doing, seeing as how ICS looks like it'll be nothing but improvements from here on oot.

Ooooh I get you! yes its best and suggested to flash any new ics rom from el29 stockrooted
Odin el29 stock rooted
Then flash el26 cwm kernel
Reboot to recovery then flash the ics rom
If your already on an ics rom MY method is to always Odin el29 stockrooted

also if I helped you in anyway, Lets have some manners and hit the thanks!
Righteo, that helps some. Now I just gotta back everything up. I made my original backup once I first rooted, I shouldn't need to make additional, right? You can find rooted, stock GB roms to go back to...right? Lol its late...I need another doobie :cyclops:
EDIT:
Actually, I'm already halfway through that. I am at el29, stock rooted. And I have the el26 kernel. I just need the CWM recovery, then the actual piece de resistance, the rom. Right Krazy?

I was actually in a similar situation as you. I came from flashing on the HTC Hero(which is running AOKP at the moment, and I'm soon going to flash the new Jellybean rom that was just released for it), and that phone is completely different from the E4GT. Although i didn't start flashing from GB, I started on ICS.
I actually went from FF18 Stock Rooted to AOKP milestone 6 Friday the 13th using Agat's recovery from source, and it's a safe recovery, without problems. I am now loving AOKP

The yellow triangle is Samsung way of telling the techs an unofficial kernel was flashed to the phone. People use a jig or if your on ICS you can use triangle away to reset the binary counter.

Thanks. I am looking to flash for the first time on this phone also, just got it a week ago. I came from the Vibrant which was so much more simple. Another question if you don't mind. I am on the now running stock OTA ICS. Do I just need to Odin a safe kernel then flash which ever ROM I choose or are the ICS kernels that are built from source now safe to flash from?
The kernels built from the source are safe. Agats kernel with recovery. You can flash that kernel being on stock FF18 and flash from there.
Edit: the agats kernel I have is for TW roms. So just do some research on what kernels you can use. (Cm9 and AOKP use different kernels.)

I have done a ton reading, just stuck in the old ways of my old phone and simplicity of flashing on it. It was all a little confusing because even some of the updated ROM threads still say flash back to EL26 first, which is also a TW kernel isn't it? But then I read in another place it is safe to use Agats kernel built from source and so on. I was a little shocked at considerably less custom ROM options on this phone compared to the Vibrant. Granted the Vibrant has been around longer, but there were so many more options at the start which kind of leads me to think it is just that much more work to do that on this phone. By no means is this a negative remark toward any developer, just sort of expected a lot more because it is a nice phone. I was looking to flash the Platinum version of this rom http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1712362 since I love the color red. But, thanks for help. I really appreciate it when someone actually gives an answer to a question instead of bash people new to a phone.

The yellow triangle is Samsung way of telling the techs an unofficial kernel was flashed to the phone. People use a jig or if your on ICS you can use triangle away to reset the binary counter.

And if I remember right, doesn't it only trigger if you flash an unofficial kernel through desktop Odin only? I know the Auto Root Package won't trigger it, and neither will Mobile Odin.

Your correct only desktop triggers the yellow triangle.
Also just my steps to flashing roms 4 the e4gt
1. odin stock el29 rooted
2. flash the el26 cwm kernel (I provided on a few post back)
3. boot into recovery!
Flash what ever you want!
If you want to flash something else repeat those step! As you venture on you will get the hang of things! I hope!

I can vouch for AOKP M6. I have had two problems, both have fixed themselves(with time for the rom to settle in). Haven't tried Paranoid Android or CM9 yet. And I don't plan on it, as AOKP has everything I want in a rom.

I had all these on the Vibrant, but non are as stable as they were on the vibrant (as least by what I have read). AOKP would probably be my first choice because I am very familiar with Romanbb's work since he had a Vibrant at one time and is one of the best dev's.

Paranoid is a great ROM but some things are just a little to small for my tastes. But if I had a Galaxy Note then Paranoid would be the one for sure. But still my question wasn't answered, not getting smart, just looking for an answer...Do I need to flash back to EL26 or 29 before flashing an ICS ROM, or can I use the new safe kernels built from source? I think I need to be held by the hand on my first one.

You should be good from one of the safe kernels from source. I used Agat's recovery from source to flash AOKP from stock FF18 with no problems, did the normal factory reset instead of one of those format all zips. Not a problem with it. It should be safe to do as many factory resets/data wipes as you want from what I understand.

The agats kernel is safe. Flashed two ICS roms already. If you like red, check out the hooligan rom by MaNuFaN721. Themed red.

The Hercules 4.1.2 leak has not been leaked. So far all kernels and ROMs that claim to be 4.1.2 official are based off Skyrocket. Until we get our leak Skyrocket is our only hope.

[MOD] OpenPDroid for existing ROMS {CM AOKP AOSP and derivatives}

First of all
THIS IS NOT MY WORK! I am simply using the tools made by the hard work of others and applying the updates to the frame work for the E4GT. This thread is simply meant for convenience so others can add OpenPDroid to their roms without having to download all the tools and applying the changes themselves. If you want to Thank me for this work, then please visit the people who made these tools and donate to them or thank them. They deserve the credit. I only deserve credit for using CPU cycles on my laptop and posting the results here.
Tools used and credit to their work:
Auto Patcher Thanks to mateorod and others!
PDroid Manager Thanks to FFU5y!
OpenPDroid Thanks to FFU5y!
PDroid frameword Thanks to CollegeDev!
PDroid App Thanks to svyat!
I'm sure there are others involved in PDroid and if I missed you, let me know.
What is this thread?
I've wanted to use PDroid for a while now and found it difficult to add it to my rom since there were no maintainers for the e4gt that included in their framework. So what I am doing is providing a service to e4gt users to be able to apply the framework changes to their ROMs easily. Just download an flash rather directly from your phone.
What is PDroid?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=36678558&postcount=1
This is NOT for TW!
Instructions:
Download the framework patch for your specific rom/version. These are ROM/VERSION SPECIFIC!
Download the 'restore' patch incase you want to remove it (btw, reflashing your rom does the same thing but this only restores the parts that changed which is nice) These are ROM/VERSION SPECIFIC!
Download the PDroid Manager App
Flash the update in CWM/TWRP
Install the app
Manage your privacy and Donate to your developers!
ROM UPDATES
Attached to this thread, you will find the zips. There are TWO per ROM per VERSION (one for update and one for restore). I will try to keep up on the latest updates.
If there are requests, let me know. No Promises because the utilities fail on some roms but I will surely try. Also if you need an older/newer version of one of the supplied roms, I can create it.
NOTE: The patching utilities do not work on all ROMs yet but as I have failures I am trying to work with the auto patcher team to correct. Important: These only make changes to the system partition meaning that the worst case, you can always just reflash your rom to remove it but there is a restore provided so you dont need to do that.

Cool stuff, something i would try after we get source.
I'm running jb AOKP on my G210.1 and I love the smooth flow, speed and light feel you get from the build. :thumbup:
Good find!:thumbup:
I see it clearly on the post header, but maybe a warning about not using on stock or touchwiz roms may help the noobs. Just a mention. :thumbup:
