Please do not ask for a better rom. It is against the forum rules.
Check this intro guide for ur device:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1761666
Am sure u will find answers there.
I have also asked the mods to move ur thread to the correct section. Hopefully, someone with ur device will help u out there.

In order to flash a new rom you will need a custom recovery/kernel.
This can be done using mobile odin, find the kernel you wish to use, download the tar and zip files for it.
Open mobile odin and select the kernel slot, navigate to your kernel and select the tar file (zips will not be displayed in mobile odin).
Scroll down to flash firmware and allow the phone to reboot.
Now find your desired rom and download it.
Once you're ready to flash you need to enter recovery mode (vol up + power simultaneously until it reboots to recovery screen) there is also an app called Quick Boot in the play store that will boot into recovery mode (free and paid versions available)
Once in recovery, navigate to your desired rom and flash.
Be warned, some if not most roms available include the stock kernel, so you will need to reflash the kernel using the zip you downloaded earlier.
DO NOT flash any mods, tweaks, etc in the same session as your rom, kernels are fine, but anything else and you're asking for trouble.
Hope this helps answer your questons:good:

Thank you so much for taking ur time to give me that information
i really do appreciate it.

Could be lagging because your ROM needs to be reset... try factory resetting... and yes your pretty up to date... but fc09 is the latest actually... you could just flash an fc09 rom if your rooted and have a custom recovery...
Also please place questions in Q&A thanks =]

lol, i guess what i mean is there a way that the update can be loaded from the SDcard, and is there a link where i can download the update to my sd card???
that how i installed my last update
Freezing does not mean a new update... FC09 is a very minor change.

Hello everyone i wanted to know if my phone has the latest version available. my phone has been acting up lately so i was thinking why not reup with the newest available.
Yes. That is the last and final stock update for the Epic 4G.

recovery unable to flash zip files

I recently got a Samsung Epic 4G Touch and immediately flashed the system to ICS, using SFHub's stock rooted FF18.
Phone works great with that rom. But I was trying to apply Kobridge's tweak pack and discovered that recovery is not letting me install .zip files.
I reboot into recovery fine, and can choose "apply update from sd card .zip" fine. I can navigate to the file fine. When I select it though, it immediately switches to an android bot lying down, with its hood open and a red triangle above it.
I then have to pull the battery to re-boot the phone. It boots into normal startup fine, but the tweak has not been applied.
I tried several versions, and other zips, and it doesn't seem to want to let me install anything that way.
Ideas? I'd rather not have to put CWM on the phone or a different rom on the phone just yet.
That is because the install update zips are for official sprint/Samsung upgrades. To flash those you need CWM.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app
You're going to need CWM or another custom recovery to flash anything on your phone
Now I feel like an idiot. I thought the version I got had a working recovery in it, but you're right - it didn't.
I installed Agat's and it's working fine now.
Thanks for the help!
No problem. Your not an idiot. It's alittle confusing sometimes.

No problem and I agree. You're not an idiot. It's also better to ask questions than it is to end up with a very expensive paperweight because you tried to figure things out on your own like some of us have done.

This is the E4GT forum. You need to head over to the S4 forum, specifically the OP for Hyperdrive.

Even though you're in the wrong forum... It sounds like a bad download, try redownloading the ROM.

Go post your question in the Q&A section.. Here
You are actually using rom manager with twrp? Lol what?
Uninstall ROM Manager...its absolutely useless if your using TWRP. You'll need to reinstall TWRP recovery. If you don't know how to then follow the link below.

+1 ROM Manager and TWRP do not play nice together. If your recovery doesn't work now, download the latest Odin TWRP version and flash it with Odin. Then try rebooting into recovery and you should be OK.
You don't need ROM manager. You can really eff yourself if you are running TWRP as your recovery and try doing stuff with that app.
You can flash TWRP with the Goo Manager app in the Play Store...

But yeah, only use one at a time. CWM Touch (sk8erwitskil's version) or TWRP. BUT NEVER BOTH!
Or actually sk8rs recovery because its from koush but modded. Rom manager sucks.. If you use rom manager, you are DEFinetly NOOB.. cant hang with the big boys/slim girls and use your actual phone.
Thank you for your contribution to the t989 development.

Install ROM E4GT FL24

Hello all....
yesterday I rooted my phone with this video
http://www.qbking77.com/development/root-the-samsung-epic-4g-touch.html
originally have stock FL24 ICS 4.0.4
Now i want install a ROM.... but what is better..??
and how i can do...?
also I can install CyanogenMod with FL24 ??
Regards...
Yes you can install CyanogenMod over FL24 4.0.4 ICS. However you need to read the CM threads.
To start you need a safe recovery such as EL26CWM or the EL29Directboot and a PC that you can use Odin to flash the recovery. Direct boot does exactly what it says, once it has been flashed successfully it will boot into recovery. EL26 you will need to hold volume up + power until you see recovery.
Then wipe data/factory reset. Install zip from SD card, select the location it was downloaded to. Select the ROM, and select yes. Now flash the appropriate Gapps. Reboot and profit!
Now that I've done my part, BTW this is a question and all questions belong in the Q&A section. This is the wrong section for questions. Prepare your diddly hole cause the fire has been lit underneath it.

sometimes frezze the phone and I need to restart ....
any solution?
I think your solution would be to spend some time reading through these sections, reading the stickies and all followup posts 1st.
Then reading through the OP of the ROM you wish/are trying to use and then read through all the followon postst there.
The rate you're going you are going to paperweight your device.
Then maybe try the search button.
Seriously there is a TON of information out here.
Also note that just about everything in here comes with caveats, warnings and other provisos and your mileage may vary. The devs and contributors here are fantastic and really provide a whole lot of support but I know they get tired of seeing the same questions asked over and over ad naseum.
Good luck.

New user E4GT , need some help.

Hey guys, I just broke my galaxy nexus (fell in the pool) and a buddy gave me his old E4GT to use.
I did my research around this forum and found a ton of different things.
What I've done so far:
Wiped the phone and rooted using odin for FL24 which is the stock ICS build on the phone.
What I want to do:
Flash CWM recovery
Flash a Stable rom
I've been reading about a few unstable kernel issues around the forum and I'm a bit confused.
I would really appreciate the help with this Thanks
You should know that in order to flash a ROM, you need to flash a safe gb kernel, EL29 directboot or EL26 CWM,do you know about the emmc bug?
Since I dont see a specific question, check this thread - http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1953783

There are a ton of really stable builds in android development, and most have cwm built in. Jellyverse is a kick a** ROM, but doesn't have cwm, but it's easy enough to flash that after you load the ROM. Good luck.

ROM
Well if you're looking for a stable ICS ROM, I can definately recommend the Blue Kuban FL24/FI27 ROM. All you need to do is boot into a safe kernel (http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/tools.html), then boot into it (MAKE SURE YOU ARE ROOTED AND HAVE FILES ON YOUR PHONE, FAILURE TO DO SO WILL PUT YOU IN BOOTLOOP), then wipe data/factory reset, and then flash the rom (if you want the Blu Kuban ROM, here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1625535). And you should be :good: to go.

*Note* After you flash the rom using the EL29 Directboot (which is needed to be flashed either through Desktop Odin or Mobile Odin), the ROM will automatically install a safe recovery after the ROM flash.
Thanks for the link to the newbie thread (missed it) also thanks for clarifying on the EL29! Right now I'm installing JellyVerse
