Hello all:
I'm a noob here so forgive me if I've missed something somewhere else.
I am on a stock EL29 rom and I'm rooted. I haven't done the ICS OTA update, but I would like to try ICS. The OTA notification keeps bugging the **** out of me. So, Here are my questions:
1) How do I flash ICS on a rooted GB EL29? Do I have to unroot first and then do the OTA update? If not, what and where are the correct procedures?
2) When I boot to CWM, it shows a Team Rouge logo and the menus aren't exactly the same as the menus I see in various demo videos. How can I get a "stock" CWM and flash it over the Team Rouge CWM? I downloaded ROM Manager and tried that, but the phone still boots to the Team rouge CWM.
3) Should I just forget flashing ICS altogether and just flash a new ROM/Theme on EL29 instead? If so...what's a great ROM to flash?
4) Any other suggestions y'all might have
I have Android version 2.3.6
Baseband version S.D710.10.S.EL29
Kernel Version: 2.6.35.7-SPH-D710.EL29-CL852097
Build Number: GINGERBREAD.EL29
Hardware Version: D710.010
Thanks in advance....
Steve
Ok so do you want ics rooted? If so you can find a one click in the stickies and if not and you just want the ota you will have to unroot because you can not have a custom recovery and update ota

Yes, I want ICS rooted. But if I do the one click, can I do it over top of a rooted EL29? I've also heard that I have to have a certain CWM to do the flash to ICS. Is that true?
I also want the ability to back the other way.
I'm just really worried about bricking the phone....I've read enough on here to be abundantly cautious....
Just do the one click and then flash agats kernal via computer after(QBking77 has a video on YouTube showing how to do it).

You can flash a direct boot cwm from mobile odin that is safe. Then from there flash whatever ics rom you want. No emmc brick risk.... also that will keep the yellow triangle off if its not there already

If u wanted to go back you could do the mobile odin flash then restore the nandroid.

I would even say give the JB AOSP a run. Battery life is great, has a couple cyamogenmod components, and is really really smooth. Last build today really made this phone a daily driver for me. Flash the same as ICS cyanogemod but make sure to flash jellybean gapps right after the ROM.

Thanks Dante...I was reading about that Rom earlier. From what I've heard, the battery life sucks on the stock ICS, so if this one has great battery life, that definitely would go a long way to recommend this rom.
Thanks again!
CM9 battery life is great. I havnt tried that AOSP JB but I haven't found one that was stable enough for a daily driver... I'll wait a month or two before JB on the e4gt.

Hi, I am not new to rooting and custom ROMs but it has been a while and the forum has so many roms that it is hard to decide which is the most stable.
Would you guys please recommend to me the best/most stable/most customizable(cyanogen) AOSP rom for this phone? Basically I'd want the best CM9 rom and hopefully CM10 once its stable.
Thanks

I have not seen a consistent explanation about the difference between the Android and original development forums.
I have not tried AOKP. That particular version you linked is no longer being developed. There is a newer Jelly Bean build here:

1. I believe the difference between the to sections is that Original development is for AOSP based roms while android development is for roms based of stock or leaked firmware. That being said i dont think that many people understand that when they post and it has been kind of a Cluster f.
2. Are you currently on the OTA? you will need to odin a kernel that has a working recovery with it. If youre going to another rom right away it may be easiest to odin EL26 cwm, then load into recovery and flash because this will install the kernel/recovery packaged in the rom.
3. Ive used AOKP some and its pretty nice but i am one that likes to stay with a rom that still has activity. That way if i have problem there may be a chance that it is going to get fixed. But if you are ok with a few problems here and there go ahead and test out CM10 or sbrissens AOSP.

1. Yeah I was going towards that conclusion but I dont think people understand it either.
2. I already flashed CM9. I used the mobile odin method in this link: http://e4gtcm.blogspot.com/p/cm9-install-guide.html
I flashed the kernel and I got stuck on recovery and couldnt get back to my regular rom. I was just wanting to get a recovery then I mounted the storage and put CM9 and gapps and flashed away. Now im running CM9 and its flawless.
3. Can you link me sbrissens AOSP? Thanks!

Hi Everyone,
I was searching through the threads looking for the official stock Telus T989DTLUMC4 firmware update. I was able to find the Odin flashable version of the update but I was not able to find one that is flashable through recovery. So, I decided to make one and share with everyone here in the community.
This is the official Telus T989DTLUMC4 firmware downloaded from the SamMobile website. I have rooted, installed busybox, zipaligned and deodexed. I am currently running it on my T989D Telus Galaxy S 2 right now and it's running great.
I don't intend to add any additional tweaks/mods to this ROM. It is meant strictly for people that want the official TLUMC4 release but don't want to have to flash via odin and reroot.
Also, if any dev's or chefs want to use this as a base for their ROM please feel free to do so, you do not need to PM me to ask for permission. However, I do ask if you choose to use this base in your ROM please give me a thanks/thumbs up in the OP.
INSTALL INSTRUCTIONS (If followed exactly as below you should not have any issues)
- You must be rooted and have TWRP 2.4.4.0 custom recovery installed
- Download and place the Infamous Cache Wipe and Infamous Super Wipe scripts from http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2235141 on either your internal or external SD Card. This will be needed for later. Thanks to @Jamison904 @thederekjay and Team Infamous for this fantastic tool.
- Reboot into TWRP 2.4.4.0 recovery and create a nandroid backup (Always do this step before flashing any ROM)
- Go to Wipe, Advanced Wipe and select Data, System,Cache and Dalvik (then swipe to wipe)
- Press the home button and select the Infamous Super Wipe Script
- Click on add another zip file and choose Infamous Cache Wipe
- Click on add another zip file and choose TelusT989DTLUMC4RootedDeodexed.zip
- Swipe to install all 3 files
- Reboot (First boot may take approx 5mins, be patient)
- Wait 10mins after first boot and allow phone to sit (do not log into your account)
- Reboot again and setup your account
- Enjoy

Have you tried T-Mobile stock ROM on your telus phone? I was thinking to set up a T-Mobile ROM for my bf to flash but if the telus one is better and less bloated I'll give this one a try.
Can someone that have tried both tell which is better. I own the T-Mobile version and have only tried the ROM from Jamison.

I actually just downloaded the stock firmware for the Tmobile version today, was going to build a Stock, rooted, deodexed version for the TMo guys and gals as well. When it's up I guess you can give this one and the TMo one a try and see which you like best. Typically Telus has less bloat but also doesn't have wifi calling.

Do you think it would be a bad idea to do a dirty flash to upgrade from the official Telus ICS ROM to this? I installed CWM to change radios but am still running the stock ROM. Sounds like a bad idea but I thought I might as well check here

I would not recommend dirty flashing from ICS to JB. Make a backup first of your current ICS stock ROM and then do a full clean wipe and install.

It's not any more complicated. Don't worry about odex and stuff. Just stay in the development threads here and flash what you like. Not trying to be mean here but these types of threads are not necessary. Just make a nandroid and flash away and see what best fits your needs. Each rom is subject to opinion. I use slimfast and have had no issues with it.

I keep asking questions, and you give me other replies rather than answers... If might be straightforward and easy for you. and maybe screwing around with a $350 phone is no issue for you.. but me.. not so much.
"In theory you should be fine if you do dirty flash from another 4.3 rom such as DN3 v1.0 or SN10
We recommend TWRP 2.6.3.1 to flash this rom.
You need 4.3 boot loader.
Have both TWRP and latest CWM on your external SD Card along with Ditto Note 3.1.1
Flash TWRP 2.6.3.1, go into Wipe and slide to do the Factory Reset."
This is not straight forward to me.. since I have no idea if I have a 4.3 bootloader - says I HAVE TO HAVE ONE.
TWRP is at 2.7 now .. is there a reason he says to use 2.6.3.1??? on a rom that was updated 3 days ago??
These are the things that bother me.. I am not interested in bricking my phone.
If you dont want to help.. fine, But explanations for the terms used above are not coming up in searches, unless I want to read a ton of threads.. so I thought someone might answer for me.

If that's what the developer says to use then use it. I would say he knows why to use 2.6.3.1 but that's not really important. Samsung phones are very hard to brick if you follow the directions. I'm no expert dude, all I do is follow the directions in the OP. If you do that you will be fine. What were you running prior to slim fast? If you're not sure you have the bootloader you can just flash it again.

Hey how's going guys,
I currently am using Insane Hybrid touchwiz 4.4.4 custom rom and wanted to know if it was really worth upgrading to a 5.01 rom..
Any answers are highly appreciated
If you don't work or go to school and you have most of the day to fiddle around with your phone trying to keep it running properly while trying to make a call or send a message, then it might be worth trying.
Otherwise wait for the official carrier update to drop and for devs to get "official" firmware to work with, by then all the bugs should be worked out.

What rom? I see no specific rom mention in this thread, so you will have to be a bit more clear than that.
If you mean going from 4.4.4 to 5.0.2, then of course you wont do a dirty flash. NEVER dirty flash when upgrading to new versions like you can with ordinary dailies or weeklies of the same version.
In this thread speak about GPE 5.01 Rom. Is very clear, and my question is: if a dirty flash is not good, can you tell how is the way to do it? As I sed, Instruction about this Rom are not clear at all. It is not my first time flashing Roms, but I do not know everything about it. I just want to make sure my phone is out of problems. If you can help me, Thanks.If not, Thanks any way. Not everybody answer questions here on xda.

Hey man, like I said earlier I don't think its worth it, but if your really craving it you should go here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?p=60109056
and read about what people are posting as they go through the install process.
Instructions are very clear.
Full Wipe - Factory reset or wipe data reset with custom recovery.
Flash Rom - Whether Odin or custom recovery.
Reboot - After flashing reboot.
Step into thread with simple " Need help flashing" and someone will help you.

For the link I gave you You need to be on latest firmware update for your model phone and that would be NK2 kitkat.
The rom offered in the link you posted is an older version of the one I referred you to in development.
Follow the link I gave you and look in you tube for "flashing GPE rom for Tmobile S4" someone probably has a video guide you can follow or use as a reference.

Ok Thanks!!!
