That's odd...

Ok, I turned the phone off for a min and restarted... It had me downgrade to EF02 as well.... ...

HOLY ****!!!! Now it keeps prompting me to update to EF10 from EF02.. LOL... I think I should just start over... lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] DexterDawg:
Whoa.. installed the EF10 OTA, reboot, then got an OTA message to go from EF10 to EF02 !?!?!?!?

edit: Sorry should have refreshed my browser
[Epic 4G Android Development] dcowboys2184:
same here ... double fail!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
Everything was fine i went to download only checked reboot and put cwm into phhone spot said it passed turned on phone no service didnt even know my phone number and went to recovery its normal recovery not CWM WTF??? What do i do now?

Even hardware version says unkown
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
Sounds like that would make your version official then, no?
[Epic 4G Android Development] xopher.hunter:
I gues I'm gonna wait on the ota, anyone try the no CIQ zip on the swiss cheese thread?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
Does it force it or prompt it? I wonder if anyone can root the EF10 and or snatch the whole ROM??
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
I guess so huh? lol

It's running ok now that I cancel update check... :D

Speedtest results in 2385 down 304 up.... I'm inside the house... :D
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
EF02 or EF10? Damn sounds like I'm going to have a long night ahead when I get home LOL My gf isnt going to be happy LOL
[Epic 4G Android Development] pissinguoff247:
I'm also getting the wacky "Downgrade" upgrade request - it wants me to go from EF10 to EF2. EF that!
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
It prompts the updates... It's running fine now.. fully functional and rooted... Found my Daily!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
trying to download this on my phone and it's not working out too well. can't find the download link on samfirmware. can anybody point me in the right direction?
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
DL located in OP, first file..
[Epic 4G Android Development] shadowlink217:
It seems that you can't update the firmware anymore. Could someone with the EF10 modem upload it?

EDIT: Just tried the update again and it worked.
[Epic 4G Android Development] formula84:
Is the baseband the modem?
[Epic 4G Android Development] rufflez2010:
Can't, phone won't turn on to odin
[Epic 4G Android Development] digiblur:
Try a different PC and/or cable if ODIN is messing up. I picked up 4 or 5 nice thick usb cables from Monoprice several months ago. Even has the little magnet attached to cable for noise reduction...can't remember proper name of it. Sammy cable sucks and is only good for charging.
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
Yes sir, that is correct...
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
It won't let you update to EF10?
[Epic 4G Android Development] smark72:
Not even into download mode??
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aryantes:
Gotta say I lol'ed at this one. :)

Anyone on 4G test if Wifi-Tether 3.0 crashes or not?

That would be crazy super awesome if it worked flawlessly on this update.

Can't wait to try it but at work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
I know, but my phone doesn't like downloading from hotfile apparently. I have to download the rar from my phone, my work computer blocks it (yes, I am too impatient to wait until I get home, lol).

Is there another download link, like direct from samfirmware, or is that the only one?
[Epic 4G Android Development] magoo5289:
Yeah, appears the EF10 OTA upgrade seriously borked my phone. Unable to get service. I have reflashed just the modem.bin and the tar file again (twice) and it will not come back up and operational. Going back to EB13 to see if that even works.
[Epic 4G Android Development] stud_muffler:
try different browser.

Miren worked for me.

:cool:
[Epic 4G Android Development] rufflez2010:
Nope, was able to odin the EF02 tar, but when I went to flash the recovery, I got the MD5 sum error, then converted it to just .tar and it flash... then phone wouldn't turn on.
[Epic 4G Android Development] formula84:
So the EF10 update is just the modem right not the rom it checks and is ready so quick.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
+1 I have had this issue in the past with cables too

[Epic 4G Android Development] Ron_91:
Lol @ all these guys ****ing up their phones.

Maybe you should wait until a reputable dev makes a rom for us. If you mess up your phone its your fault for using an untested leak.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Wizard Knight:
sweet, thank you so much. this is the same file that you get if you download from the hotfile link? it's got a different file name.
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
Try downloading from dolphin browser on your phone.. It's located in market and its free...
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
I think the key is to stay away from the OTA if you are playing with this.
[Epic 4G Android Development] galland1:
Some odd behavior here. Reloaded my old stock rooted nandroid backup. Phone prompted OTA EF10 update. I let it load. Then it rechecked and wnated to load EF02. I canceled out on that one. Phone is now running froyo.eco5 build with EF10 baseband. Firmware 2.2.1
[Epic 4G Android Development] smark72:
Personally I would wait til tonight or tomorrow. Something all in one will pop up, where you wont have to flash all that crap separately. Pull the battery from the phone, connect the usb and then try to put into download mode.
[Epic 4G Android Development] FrameCityJackal:
My phone just perma-bricked....damn

odin failed tried to restart BAM wont turn on

no ones fault but mine
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
It did that to me the first attempt but I turned the phone off for a good min or two and when I powered it back on it worked fine on EF10....
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
Has anyone tried odining to a completely stock EE03 and see if it prompts an OTA update? I'm just wondering why an update would be prompted when from my understanding, Sprint releases them a little at a time. Is it at all possible that there is a true official GB waiting but because we are all rooted and rommed we arent getting it?
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
Yes... I wouldn't know about ready so quick though... I went through a mini panic attack when my service was unavailable... But all is fine now after I powered it on again... Just cancel update prompts if they come up again... Also take into mind, that many are bricking there phones... I came out ok.. But it is your fault if you decide to do anything to you phone outside of warranty...

I feel for you guys with the undesired outcomes. that sucks donkey nuts.. I wish you guys the best of luck..
[Epic 4G Android Development] magoo5289:
Thanks for the advice. finally got it to go back to EF02 happily, baseband version is now showing properly, and yes I can confirm the EF10 OTA update has been pulled.

EDIT - Nevermind it said none was available but now it is saying it is.
[Epic 4G Android Development] noobnl:
because acs/konane modified build.prop and a few other files
[Epic 4G Android Development] johnbarry3434:
I would try and pull the battery and leave it out for like 15 seconds, then see if you can get into download mode.
[Epic 4G Android Development] formula84:
Are you staying on EF10 Modem? I am have already and its working fine so far, wondering if I should leave it or ODIN back... I am still under warranty so I might just leave it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] viper786:
When I ODIN EF02 everything works fine. As soon as I ODIN CWM, I get no signal and Airplane mode stays toggled on and wont toggle off. Tried 3 times and on 2 different computers. Any Ideas?
[Epic 4G Android Development] noobnl:
put the tar in pda
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
Odin the EC05 Modem.

As for my summary. ROM is very stable, some rooted apps don't work ie: ShootMe. Still playing around with it. GPS works, so this is definitely my new daily driver. Phone calls also work. Although my 3G speeds are cut in half and my maximum DL via WiFi was 25Kbps but now it's 5.5K max. I haven't tried the EF10 Modem, but I am interested in seeing results.
[Epic 4G Android Development] mattallica76:
Did you put CWM in the phone slot?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jchice2:
ShootMe is working for me. As usually, "your mileage may vary" may apply.
[Epic 4G Android Development] FrameCityJackal:
Did that, headed off to sprint right now, hopefully the whole system is wiped of custom firmware and I get a replacement on the spot...
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
I'll try reinstalling it, then. :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] Overstew:
Shootme works now and my 3g is back up to speed. :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] jchice2:
I did an install directly from the Market instead of restoring from a backup, maybe that was it. As we have seen, some users have issue some don't, kinda stinks when there can be inconsistent results across the board! Yikes! :)
[Epic 4G Android Development] rufflez2010:
I'll try it, but I went for a run after I bricked it to clear my frustration, and no go. I have the battery out now. Apparently, I can't even activate my hero in the meantime due to needing to change my plan? I have the day off, may go to the Sprint store to see how much a replacement will cost.
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
Netflix devicecheck disabled - confirmed working on EF10. :D .. YMMV!!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
For those experiencing some issues using Odin in the phone slot try the pda slot. As for the EF10 do the update before the recovery. They shouldn't interfere either way but its better safe then sorry. As for the recovery i Odin flashed it through the pda slot maybe some people are experiencing issues with the phone slot. So just a heads up.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rufflez2010:
Holy F... Phone went into download mode.

FYI, I flashed everything through PDA slot originally. I believe the issue was with me leaving Re-Partition checked while trying to flash the recovery.

And it failed the Odin... Screen turned yellow at factoryrfs

Got it to go into download mode one more time... looks like the 3rd time was the charm. Booted into GB! I think I'll wait a bit on root/recovery for a tad, I wanna check out this build.
[Epic 4G Android Development] haas599:
Is audio out through USB working?
[Epic 4G Android Development] omair2005:
I'm eagerly looking forward for a custom rom/source!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dulanic:
So far ODINed. Uncheck F. Reset Time. Put pit in pit, tar in PDA. Flashed perfectly then checked for software upgrade and got the updated EF10 and then right after that it tried to put me back to EF02 again lol so I cancelled that. Will be rooting next.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SpicyBurrito:
So I tested this for a little bit. Didn't get the OTA like everyone else did, but maybe that's because I only used it for an hour. It is an improvement from the last build except for the modem, which for my phone, sucked. It also felt a little less smooth, or maybe that's because I'm used to SRF and Bonsai so much.

I'll be sticking with Bonsai for now, but I can see this being used as a daily driver, even without it being customized(Although it'd be nice).
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Was EF10 just a baseband update or is there a full EF10 in the works by Samsprint and we are just "lucky" to be able to update baseband OTA?
[Epic 4G Android Development] steviee7:
theres no prompt to update to ef10 you need to go to settings about phone update firmware and ef10 will come out, its just the modem not everything.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Willo13B:
Edit: wrong reply
[Epic 4G Android Development] noobnl:
i think it a baseband update only
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
Let me just say when i used this for like 20 mins its was faster than ACS

Ive used ACS since i got my epic nothing else, and this was blazing smooth

Ex. you click something bam!!!!!! it opens no lag at all
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
So this would probably mean that EF02 is the 'official' release SamSprint is coming out with, no?

I guess we won't know for a few more days yet, but hopefully some of the resident devs are already working on this "just in case".
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
Are you talking about EF02 or a Bonsai ROM?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MaxPatlick:
welp everything was working great until i went and hosed everything up trying to use cwm to restore my settings/apps.. I've used up my lunch hour for nothing and now i have no phone until after 6 :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] Willo13B:
The EF10 radio isnt working well for me...reverted back to the EF02 radio and its all good.

EF10 radio working well for you guys?
[Epic 4G Android Development] poit:
I almost bricked because when I tried to odin CWM I didn't notice that loading the pit file turned on repartition! As soon as I hit start I realized it but it was too late. Of course it repartitioned the phone and installed nothing but recovery. Fortunately it would still go into download mode, (1 key plus power) so I could reodin EF02, then reodin CWM with repartition turned OFF!

so far looks good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
That's what I was leaning towards ... it's a leak yes, but seems as though Samsprint will release EF02 and let users upgrade baseband OTA when it comes time for official release. I haven't heard of any other update in the works from them.
[Epic 4G Android Development] res1n:
Completely flawless. This may be probably my first post, but this was my first time ever really tinkering with my Epic.

For those who have no idea how to install the tar / odin I used this as an install guide. ( use common sense )

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1052813

Just thought I'd share because I read every page of this thread and someone suggested putting the tar under "Phone" mine actually wouldn't allow that, but putting it under PDA worked perfectly. Just be sure to delete .md5 from the end.

I can adb some screenshots if anybody is interested, signal strength has improved dramatically and the overall OS performance is much more snappier.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XxLostSoulxX:
I said This (This thread so EF02) LOL

I'm back on ACS because i like stability and i had issued with ODIN.

I don't plan getting back intill there's a rom
[Epic 4G Android Development] cornaljoe:
I'm in the same boat. Heading to the Sprint store now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] warrior420:
I seem to be stuck in Airplane mode... restarted a few times too.

EDIT: wanted to say that the first boot i had service fine. Just after i rebooted it was gone. And still is.... :(

EDIT2: I Odin'd EC05 modem and now i have service.... gunna check for updates.

EDIT3: i forced it to check for updates and it said that there were no updates
[Epic 4G Android Development] rufflez2010:
Just got the notification to upgrade to EF10 first time I tried. I'm connected to an airave at home. Mine is still virgin, just benchmark apps installed right now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aryantes:
I just finished flashing.

Had problems at first with Odin.

I had UNCHECKED re-partition and this was causing my flash to hang at factoryrfs.

Did this twice, had to pull battery and try again.

PS. for those of you who can't boot after a bad flash, make sure your USB cable is unplugged as sometimes you can't get into download mode with it plugged in.

I left re-partition and auto-rebooted checked and then flashed the PIT and the TAR, which was in the PDA slot.

I don't know what the PIT file is, but it seems like re-partition checkbox might be needed if flashing PIT? Probably also depends on what file system you are coming from, as I came from RFS DK18 (old crap I know haha but was testing MobileAP)

I'm now booted up to EF02 and it seems to be running fine with root.

I installed Wifi tether 3.0 pre14 but it still crashes when 4g is enabled. boo.

running EF02 modem, getting 3-4mbps on 4G which seems about right for my location at the moment.

Haven't done anything except try to tether.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lldolendi:
Ditto! Fully functional EF02 with EF10 modem and working Netflix!
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Screen on is only in cm7 just so you know. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] nutswillkillme:
I literally just went through everything you just went through.......... wow. I was just about in my car and I decided to pull the battery for a few minutes and try again...

whew....... careful with the re-partition and recovery.

Make sure it is UNCHECKED otherwise prepare to wipe poop from your underwear.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aryantes:
I think we are finding a correlation here somewhere....

for instance, if you are currently on RFS, leave it CHECKED.

If you are currently on EXT4, leave it UNCHECKED.

can anyone confirm? This is just my speculation.

For me, I was coming from an RFS rom, and could NOT flash successfully until I CHECKED it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jchice2:
I left "re-partition" checked and had no issue. I remember seeing it checked after I clicked start and panicked for a second until it completed. Anyone else left it checked and had no issue??
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
Don't forget to post CRT confirmed working!!! :D

You can get it from ACS original post Swiss cheese... :D

YMMV!!!
[Epic 4G Android Development] jchice2:
I was running RFS in my case
[Epic 4G Android Development] tony45x220:
Call me un informed but I thought the CRT on and off animations were a standard gingerbread feature along with the overscroll animations as well?
[Epic 4G Android Development] nutswillkillme:
I was on RFS, and I left it checked and just about had a new paperweight. I was on EE03. So I'm not sure if that's the exact issue. But left it checked when I did the ef02, then unchecked it just now for the cwm. It's going so far so good. I'll post if it goes haywire, but it's booting now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jchice2:
Did you have to flash the CIQ Removal for CRT to work??
[Epic 4G Android Development] Aryantes:
Ahhh oh well haha.

Seems like something a dev could answer easily heh.

I'm tethered right now with the wifi tether 3.0 test2 version that is floating around. We'll see if my 4g connection holds.
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Samsung disables them lol... if no one gets to the screen off animation tonight ill do it if I can get the framework from this rom... but I can't do overscroll glow :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] hayzooos:
But you also had mentioned Bonsai in the statement as well, I was just looking for clarification, thanks.

[Epic 4G Android Development] xopher.hunter:
I can't imagine how busy you must be after this dropped, I can't wait til you port your badass red theme to this TIA
[Epic 4G Android Development] poit:
I think you can leave re-partition on IF you are flashing a full system tar. But if you leave it on when flashing just CWM, then the partitions are wiped and nothing is flashed except CWM so NO BOOT. You should be able to reflash a system in Odin even though the phone won't boot by pressing 1 and power to get into download mode again. I know from experience. :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] warrior420:
So, which modem is the best so far? I lost service after this flash (stuck in airplane mode), so I put EC05 Modem and now it works. But i wanna try to get the new good one working. the force update says its up to date already... :-/ Can anyone just post the modem?

BTW, the modem is the GPS too right? Because I'm not getting anything for GPS with this configuration with this modem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Willo13B:
do not try to do the FOTA to EF10 with the phone plugged in! the update will fail and you will end up with no radio (easily fixed with odin)

i've reproduced it twice now...
[Epic 4G Android Development] deano0714:
Anyone who's running this rom and is rooted with cwm make a backup on cwm and give it to marcusiant.... this will speed up development a little for him... please, I know you guys want that screen off and overscroll. ;)
[Epic 4G Android Development] z31k:
NO, just flashed through CWM... Works like a charm..
[Epic 4G Android Development] poit:
Just installed screen off and overscroll from ACS-EE03 and it seems to work fine.
[Epic 4G Android Development] CapsLockKey:
So put me in the group that updated firmware and now stuck with with a prompt to update everytime I reboot.

Well any updates to the framework will be broken i wouldn't do that... its better to use the latest one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] EddyBalls:
So far no one's said anything about the camera?.....
[Epic 4G Android Development] formula84:
Just hit cancel thats what i do, how many time do you reboot? Should not be that big of a deal.
[Epic 4G Android Development] CapsLockKey:
Have to cancel and toggle airplane and data network modes to get my data radio to work. Probably just going to reOdin once I get home and stay away from Upgrade Firmware.

OOPS. since there's no way to undo this I guess I'll live with it till I have time re-odin.
[Epic 4G Android Development] thegameksk:
I was having signal problems so I turned my phone off and pulled the battery. When I turned it on I was getting the usual welcome to android (I wasnt aware about the OTA upgrade till reading this). Now my home screens look like a new uncracked epic but under phone info it still says im running midnight 5.2 and none of my apps work. I keep getting errors and fc's. How can I go about fixing my phone? Thanks

[Epic 4G Android Development] jfharden:
I was just about to post this. Battery still sucks, but no worse than EC05.
[Epic 4G Android Development] insanity213:
That blue overscroll mod just changed the orange overscroll to blue. If you flash the ACS mod 1st then the blue after that it might work. But as previously mentioned the existing overscroll and CRT mods are based on old frameworks and may break whatever was fixed in the frameworks between EE03 and EF02.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MikeyLee:
I've been on EE03 and had some killer battery life.

Also just wondering if anyone has tried this all in one Odin deal yet and if it works??
