Are you guys able to download the update of calkulin's Rom v2.5 I keep getting unsuccessful can you only download this from the pc

Flashed and it did not go well

Hello guys, i need help. i have flashed the 2.5 but my phone will not boot completely. i can see the boot animation run for about 20 sec, and then a black screen. the only thing i can do after that is to put the battery and boot into recovery or odin.

i did wipe everything before flashing.

and just to be sure i reflashed 2.1a that does work.

then i flashed the new rogue recovery kernel and the same thing happened.

any advice?

thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Use Firefox if you have it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
What version? I am getting the same issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
Thanks for the layman explanation, I am in same boat :)

So it sounds like EL13 is the way to go + Calk's 2.5 + Rogue kernel based off EL13 ?

Will do all those on a clean wipe, fresh install once Overstew updates his AWESOME ICS theme to be compatible with 2.5

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Nand'd, wiped cache & Dalvik, installed 2.5. Rebooted. Rebooted recovery, same wipe, flashed Rogue EL13. Rebooted recovery, same wipe, installed ICS 1.9.3 (theme).

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nemssn4cer:
nibrwr, these were my steps.

1. flashed 2.5 from CWM, wiped all cashes before the flash. outcome, phone will not get past the boot animation after 20 sec. then screen goes black and only thing i can do is pull the battery out and boot to recovery or odin.

2. i then flashed back to 2.1a that works fine.

3. downloaded the new modem and new rogue kernel.

4. installed the kernel. that worked, was able to boot to 2.1a fine.

5. tried to install 2.5 again same thing no joy.

have not tried to install the modem on 2.1a yet and then 2.5 yet
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Ok, I was trying to install the full ROM

where is the 2.5? I do not see the d/l link anywhere in OP...

EDIT: I found where Calk posted it a few pages back, searching is a beautiful thing....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] interpole00:
I had the same problem installing Calk's 2.5, but after reinstalling Rogue's EL1.1.2 kernel it worked. There might be a problem with the included kernel.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sdglenn:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
did you flash it in the same session as you flashed the rom?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
when did you reinstall the kernel? after the ROM flashed?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
hey, quit copying me!!:p:p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] interpole00:
I reinstalled Rogue EL 1.1.2 stock kernel right after the rom was installed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
This is what worked for me:

1)Flashed Calk's bare 2.5 rom

2)Rebooted (hung on splash screen)

3)Booted into download mode

4)Flashed the tar of Desperado (any kernel tar will do)

5)Bask in the 2.5 glory

If your interested in the "Desperado" tar, get it here- http://db.tt/ZMSjxziY
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
steady, do you think flashing it in CWM will do just as well?

All OSX here. no Odin..

thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Steady Hawkin:
If you can get into CWM then yes, I could not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Calkulin:
What launcher are you using?

Seen your response and was more bustin Wase's stones :D:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
have been using go launcher..

Never got to the point where I could specify launcher though..

Hawk suggested flashing a kernel AFTER the rom, so I am gonna try that now..he said he was able to boot installing Desperado after the rom flash, so I am gonna try that now..

thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nemssn4cer:
Ok i am back up and running, this is what i did.

1. went back to 2.1a

2. flashed the new modem

3. flashed 2.5.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] oddlou:
I installed and am running 2.5(full) by flashing 2.5 in recovery (Rogue-it's rad), rebooting recovery, flashing Rogue's stock EL13, then wiping cache and davlik. I already had EL13 modem flashed since yesterday.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
I was locking up during boot as well (after the boot animation) but was able to get back into CWM. Flashed Steady's EL13 with Rogue Recovery and rebooted. Locked up again. Rebooted into CWM a second time and reflashed Steady's EL13, phone booted up this time.

After I connected all my accounts, I went back into CWM and flashed Desperado. Everything is peachy keen now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yankele:
Not bad...!

Steady do you have a .zip of Desperado EL13 version of your kernel that we can flash in cwm?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
OK, go it to boot

flashed the rom, booted, got stuck at black screen, went to CWM, wiped cache/dav, then flashed stock EL13 kernel, then booted and phone booted right up..Looks like the kernel included in the full version might be bad..

gonna try desperado kernel once I get the phone setup..

Thanks to everyone who helped figure this out!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
they updated their thread with both a TAR and a flashable zip just in case

---------- Post added at 10:22 AM ---------- Previous post was at 10:20 AM ----------

it might be the zip itself as I dropped in the zImage from desperado from their thread and I still got the black screen.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
Did you get 2.5 running?

Sent from my SPH-D710
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdmtsx:
Do you know if its based off the EL13 kernel? Seems like its still based off EK02
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
They have stock kernel repaced with recovery which is based off of EL13, looks like desperado isn't EL13 based and might be causing the issues.

Just booted up now using stock EL13 + renegade kernel, using EK02 based kernel doesn't seem to be working
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
who wants to be the crash test dummy and flash desperado over their working 2.5?

I really like that kernel the best, but not sure it will work on EL13
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nibrwr:
I totally agree. EK02 + 2.5 = broke. Makes sense considering Calk said 2.5 is based on leaked EL13

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Pheno.menon:
Tempted to flash.. any idea if we'll have a fixed version soon though?

Transmission sent from my Galaxy S II with XDA Premium
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
You won't see a EL13 version of "Desperado" until Samsung releases the source code, which likely won't happen until the update is pushed live, IF it ever goes live. Something tells me that if we do see a NoCarrierIQ update pushed out, it will be a different version.

For a full EL13 system you have to use the stock kernel for now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Guys - Just use an app like 7zip, drop in the zImage from Renegade stock EL13 repack and you should be able to flash away and boot no issues. Just confirmed that, and added in the ICS theme into the same zip. Calk 2.5/EL13 Stock repack/ICS theme/Tiff's MMS theme all in one baby!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
I'm running Desperado on 2.5. Everything is smooth.

Flashed in CWM.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
ok, I thought that desperado wasn't el13 "friendly"?

EDIT:

Well you were right; to appears once you have set up the rom fully, you can flash Desperado with no issues..Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gti151:
This all sounds great.. I get the first part about the zImage for the kernel but what do I put in there from the ICS theme etc. to repackage Calk 2.5?

DISCLAIMER: I didn't search at all
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zachslavin:
This is crazy! I'm on 2.0.1a and had about 68% battery left when a few minutes later I like at my phone and the red notification light is on but no notifications and my battery is at 20%. After a reboot the light stays on and now my battery percentage if creeping UP one percent at a time. Two reboots and light is still on. ?????????
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HondaCop:
Did you try deleting batterystats and doing a battery calibration?

Not yet, I will when I get home. Probably just wipe it and flash 2.5 and then calibrate. Super strange though, never have had any problems on Calk's Roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HondaCop:
Yeah give it a shot, most likely that's the issue.

Doesn't 2.5 come with Desperado already?!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] N00dle:
Does anyone have a different mirror for the full 2.5? The hotfile link get's almost done and then fails and the MU mirror just times out before even starting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
@Calk - I also noticed that the baseband for this was EG31, now I flashed EL13 stock kernel, but does your 2.5 Full flash the baseband?

You just need to drag the images from the drawable-hdpi in the res folder from the theme of choice into the appropriate folder in Calk's ROM zip. You will want to at least copy over the following to get the majority look and feel of the ROM and then you can copy over additional things like browser etc etc:

Framework - Framework-res.apk and the Touchwiz one (don't remember what its called)

System/App - Contacts, MMS, Settings, SystemUI
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
Does it? I thought it came with the Rogue Stock Repacked kernel.. I was having boot issues when i flashed so I'm not sure which kernel comes on it stock. Can anyone confirm?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigdog2040x:
I think im in love with Calk :D ...been using your roms since the Samsung moment! Just changed my modem to EL13 after having the slowest connection speeds I ever experienced with EK02!! Now i'm moving thru... Will download 2.5 when I get home.

Does anyone have a rooted rom I could odin so I can nandroid back?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duce HD2:
Don't mean to answer for Calk, but your baseband is your modem. Unless you flash a different one separately it will remain the same.

Bada Bing Bada Boom!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
Try odining just a kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anastrophe:
it's been pointed out elsewhere that the battery in the E4GT does not have externally accessible calibration logic. you can delete battstats all you want, it won't change the battery calibration.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Post 4302 to be exact

No worries, I am almost positive that I flashed EL13 so it was weird to see that, maybe that was part of the reason for the black screens?

I've come to this ROM from ViperRom. All of the savings in battery life was what enticed me to come over. I've always heard of Calkulin from my EVO days, but never tried his Rom due to me jumping off of the HTC bandwagon and going over to Sammy phones. I wanted more power. I liked ViperRom, but enjoy long battery life. I have themed this with the Nothing but the honey theme. It is great. I've always wanted to use TW and with that theme I have achieved it. I use everything stock. I have LOS checker and Superfreeze installed as well. -100 UV is great! My battery lasts for a long time and I owe it all you you Calkulin. Great Rom and all of my problems I sorted out myself. Can't wait for a new version. I should've been on your bandwagon a long time ago...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] toprock23:
Can anyone else confirm the stability of -100UV? I'm tempted to flash that one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rast4man:
Nice man. I'm familiar with your work so I'm excited to flash and try this out. I'll report back how it goes.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jermzz:
Every phone is different. If 100 random freezes or reboots, try 50. If not you could always go more. I personally start from 1200, set max cpu speed to whatever speed I wanna test, min to 200, performance profile and do back to back quadrant runs. If it passes 5 bump it down. Retest til it freezes the bump it up 25mv. Then repeat for every mhz.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:

Not every phone will support that high of a uv. Some cant handle -50. But i assure the script is correct. Flash and findout.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Tiffany84:
Actually using the power button to select something in the newest cwm still works you just have to enable it every time you boot into recovery. Atleast that's how its been for me. If you boot into recovery, start pressing the volume down button over and over, like ten or fifteen times and you'll see it say something like power button enabled. Then you'll be able to use the power button to select stuff.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Great ROM and even better with Tiff's nothin but the honey theme. But the only thing I would like to see...maybe in the next update, would be the lockscreen mod. If not, no biggie...it's just a real cool feature to have.

Keep up the good work Cal.

Question for everyone on 2.5:

How do you get your wallpaper to scroll? I no longer have the option to scroll my wallpaper into multiple panels. My homescreen only shows a static image, and my lockscreen stretches the image. Same wallpapers I had before flashing. Pretty Odd.

Other than that, everything is running sweet on 2.5. Calk's roms are the only roms I have even bothered to consistently flash on my E4GT.

*edit* 2.5 flashed ok for me actually.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
This is great. I had already completely wiped phone, flashed deodexed/rooted EL13/modem, and AIO mod, installed all my apps, and restored all settings. Then I find this ROM got updated and I figured I'd give just flashing it with only wiping cache and dalvik. It worked fine. The only thing I had to do was re-add my beautiful home weather widget and flash the mod again. Loving that CIQ was never in the base.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] redram38:
Flashed 2.5 and cannot get it to boot up. I have to pull the battery go back into recovery and try flashing again. I will try re-downloading and see what happens. I wiped everything before the flash.

What radio is meant to be used with the EL13 kernels? I'm still on EK02... do I need to upgrade that?
