[Q] simple instructions needed - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

For me there is information overload going through these forums and googling. Here is what I would like to do. I would like flash added CWM as a recovery and flash to CyanogenMod 11 - Android 4.4.1 - Kit-Kat. How do I get there from my current setup.
Phone Sprint Epic 4g - sph-d710
1. I used the one click flash to GB using the odin tool.
2. Baseband S>D710.10 S.GB27
3. Kernel Version [email protected] #3 SMP PREEMPT Fri Mar
4. Build Number: JZO54K.SPH-D710.GB27
I've read that I need to have ICS modem. If I download ICS modem will it work with my current installation? Will it lock up my phone? What is the easiest way to accomplish cwm recovery and CyanogenMod 11? Is there a one click solution out there? How do I upgrade to cwm so I can get a backup of my current installation before flashing?

[Q] E4GT Flashing question

Hey this may sound like a silly question but seeing as i am a new comer to the world of the Epic 4g Touch (previously live in the world of the OG Evo) some of this is a little new to me.
current set up is as follows
baseband version s:d710.10 s.el29
kernal version: 2.6.35.14-rogue_et-1
4.1+
build number : calculins.e4gt.rom.v3.0
i was looking at installing the super galaxy rom but wanted to know if it is safe to flash a rom that is based off of ff11 when im currently on el29.
again only reason i ask is because i could not find mention of this in the op for that rom.
that and i never really had to worry about sow many different builds when i was on my OG Evo. any help would be greatly appreciated.

You have to flash the el26 kernel then copy the rom to your internal or external sd then you are all set just flash the rom in cwm.

ah, thank you for the fast reply man.
and the kernal can also be flashed in cwm just like i used to do on the OG Evo? or would it have to be done through ODIN?
Yes it is safe. Youre baseband aka modem can be different from your kernal or rom base (super galaxy rom is based on FF11 stock rom). Just be extra careful flashing ICS roms so read up before doing anything.
And you don't need to go back to EL26 before you flash. Just use a custom recovery and flash Calk's Format All instead of wiping using the recovery. You don't need to do the extra work of going back to el26.

I believe you can flash1 any rom as long as its for the I900 and not from another company.there isnt a problem flashing down from 4.1.2 to 4.1.1, howwver I remember reading that say if u flashed to a romm that was 4.2.2 and u would need to do additional stuff in order to downgrade properly.. lab rats rom is a good rom just be sure sure before you flash anything to make a nandroid back up. Im currently running virtue (a). I love it and have been running it for awhile and thinking of trying a new rom..
Hope this helped.
The advice that I give is to just relax and take your time in reading before rom'ing. Now that you're rooted you can do all kinds of stuff to make your phone run better. Do a search for "root" in Google play apps. It will show you apps that only work on rooted phones. Also read read read the threads in all the note 2 forums. Rooted, rom'd and themed my s3. Rooted the wife's note 2. It's still stock and she loves it. BUT DO NOT FLASH A ROM THAT IS NOT MADE FOE YOIR VERSION OF PHONE OR PHONE CARRIER!
Enjoy

[Q] Need Help! Returning Custom 4.3 Rom to stock!

Hello,
I am having many issues and bugs like copy and pasting not working, not being able to text pictures or post pictures to fb, with my Galaxy S3. It is running a custom "Stock mod" rom. I want to re-install everything back to completely STOCK and start fresh like the day i got it... however i cant seem to find a way to do this with 4.3. Can someone please guide me in the right direction to getting either an extremely stable samsung stock themed rom or just the official Samsung 4.3 or higher rom. I just want my phone to function normally again. So sick of bugs and glitches.
Below are the stats for my phone:
Custom bootloader: TWRP v2.6.3.1

You need to update recovery. I'd say the best bet is twrp 2.6.1.0. Though I haven't flashed my s2 in awhile....maybe a newer version is better? Last I checked 2.6.1.0 was best.
Then the newer ROMs should flash fine.
Make sure to follow the ROM flash instructions to the letter.
I'd say nandroid first....but you'd have to flash twrp first, then do it. But I'd have Odin and a stock 4.1.2 image ready just in case. In fact....I'd Odin 4.1.2 first. Then flash twrp and root. Nandroid backup after. Then flash ROMs.
Read up good though....I'm not there, so I don't warranty this advice. Lol.
Good luck.

have you tried rebooting it- maybe clear cache in recovery

Lost Touchwiz Rom. CyanogenMod Not working out for me.

I need help in installing the factory Touchwiz ROM for my Galaxy SIII. I don't know where to get it and I don't know which one I need.
The reason is because CyanogenMod is not working correctly with my FreedomPop (Sprint) network. I can't update PRL or profile. The camera app doesn't work either, because it constantly crashes and I have to reboot the phone. Various other issues, but those stand out as priority. Any help would be greatly appreciated, thanks!
Here's my phones specs:
Current CM version: 11-20150222-NIGHTLY-d2lte
SPH-L710
Android version: 4.4.4
Baseband version: L710VPUDND8

If you don't have a touchwiz backup, go to the Android development section and download a rom to flash. You can get either the stock or Wicked X roms there. They will let you update PRL and profile.
@ivpre Thanks for the response! Any suggestion which version to get? Would the latest one work? Reason I'm asking is I used to have a Verizon Galaxy SIII and once you took the update, it locked the bootloader. Is this something I should be concerned about?

One you upgrade to a firmware with Knox you can't revert back to one without it. Not a problem for most folks. I currently use ND8 bootloader with NDC modem. I hear NJ2 has a fair performance boost tho.

You are probably good since you were running CM. But to run the latest TouchWiz, you need to be on ND8 or NJ2. If not on either of those, read the stuff below.
MAKE UP A NANDROID BAKCUP OF YOUR CURRENT SET UP
To update to NJ2: http://www.sammobile.com/firmwares/d...10SPRDNJ2_SPR/
Flash a recovery via ODIN, it is the program you used in the above step: http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=2201860
There is also TWRP somewhere, but even though Philz isn't being developed, I haven' t had any issues with it. But if you want to recover your previous setup, it is probably best to use the same recovery as before.
The latest WickedX or Wicked S5 should work just fine. If you are unsure of your current firmware, I would just follow the directions above. Then you can flash a rom or root.
