Exactly! And no worries about it overwriting recovery as long as you flash a custom gb rom (there is a mostly stock one if trying to stay stock) as the kernel will be included with the rom... don't let biggorn scare you... its not scary to pull the battery after odin ;-)

There are videos in the General subforum. Search for qbking77's videos in the stickies in the top and there is also a thread with videos on How to root the OTA EI22 or Google update.

Just odin the kernel 3gb and go from there. U don't really need to pull battery, unless ur phone or odin hangs for awhile

Success

The Odin kernel trick worked like a charm. Thanks so much for the help, my Epic is now rooted and has superuser access. The primary intent of this project was to remove all of the crap-ware and now that that is accomplished I have to ask...now what? What other things should I look at to make it faster and better?

Thanks again.

Flashing a custom rom.... and a custom kernel.

Suggestions: legendary 2.2 and the samurai or shadow kernel

MarcusantRom revival v2..... just go through the android development forums to see which rom you'd like to use. Just be careful what your trying to download thought. If your Rom is BML or MTD then you have to download that type of kernel.

U don't even have to pull out the battery is instantly boots up into cwm that's what happened to me when I got my replacement that was already on ei22 I just connected to odin and flashed the latest cwm and had a rom already on my sd card so I just flashed the rom when it opened cwm for me

Its very easy and no worries and if it doesn't open cwm its not like your phone will brick or anything u just need to try again. To flash a kernel would be easy too

qbking77 has a 2 part video on it that is very step by step. just follow it and you will be fine. from what i remember just 1 extra fie to odin and you need a file on your sdcard. it was pretty gravy. have fun and mistakes are a short odin back to the beginning

edit.

haha forgot there was a second page..... use remember you can go from bml to bml, or bml to mtd, mtd to mtd type roms. YOU CAN NOT JUST FLASH FROM MTD TO BML!!! you must odin back to ec05 and make sure repartition is checked and use the victory pit. happy playing

Well everything is running great but now Sprint is trying to upgrade my firmware to EL30. Will this do away with my new found rooting and can it be re-rooted if it does?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
It will fail to update since your rooted you have to go completely stock to upgrade and once upgraded its the same root process with the exception of using a different kernel.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] di14:
You can root EL30 the same way you root EI22.

Every time i reboot my Nexus S i9023 my recovery will be restored by the original recovery.

I've unlocked the phone with fastboot, i've installed ClockWorkMod 5.0.2.0 but when i reboot my phone i lose my recovery :(

why?

i'm using the stock rom with root!
[Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldblue910:
If you have root, then use a file manager like Root Explorer and go into the /system/etc folder and rename install-recovery.sh to install-recovery.sh.bak. Once that's done, flash Clockwork again and it won't get overwritten anymore.

Anyone has solution ?
[Kindle Fire General] Nicholas8681:
I have been following the development of cm9 on kindle fire and I look forward to a stable release. What I found out today is that some of the apps I'm interested in installing once ics is available require a certain screen size. (larger than 7inch) Does the android market allow me to buy and then manually install apps outside of the market? And if it does will the app just run or will I be able to hack something so it will? I'm specifically looking at adobe ideas, Sketchbook pro, and the other adobe apps. I appreciate any ideas/suggestions.

wow that was easy THANK YOU, to bad it is a outdated version but it is WAY better then NOT HAVING one. THANK YOU for the link have it installed now.

Now does anyone know how to fix the issue of it not showing up in market. I am guessing it has to do with the phone being bought overseas. again thank you.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] eksasol:
Depends on the firmware/ location your phone came from some apps might not be available to that area. Try flashing a different firmware.

With custom roms the CSC might not match your phone, so you can't purchase from Market even though you can

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] tek310:
So I used to have the i777 and swapped to the skyrocket for the big screen and LTE but have been disappointed ever since switch

Phone calls sound muffled and static filled on both ends of call.

Graphics are not as.vibrant

Music quality and suffered as well.

I use my phone for a couple reasons.

1. Music

2. Internet

3. Customization

Internet is beast mode with LTE

But music quality call quailty and graphics are not to standards.

There are no good ROMs like "UnNamed" for the i777

No good kernals. To fix these handicap's

What's the word. Thinking about ditching skyrocket and going.back to 777
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] GalaxySkyrocket500:
You have 4 posts and come on a Skyrocket forum and bash the phone...

Been running DaG'S 0.3 kernel for 7 weeks..no problems..

Go with your precious 777 .. it really is better because all the internet huggers say it is.. i mean it has really cool roms and since all of our roms suck and the phone just sucks.. I have had this phone for almost 2 months now.. no issues that you are saying, but I am a grown man and don't play games and stress over " not enough roms" out.. Life does go on.

One more note on the kernel's.. with my "bad" kernel as you say.. I always get 4000+ quadrant.. 6800 Antu with a stock rom overclock, but that is with my horrible Snapdragon proc. The Almighty 777 is far superior to mine:rolleyes:

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
Had a chance to test the two side by sode again yesterday. locations where call quality was an issue on the skyrocket they were equally present on the org. "bars" appeared that the org had a much better signal full compared to 2 on the sr....a quick check with a signal meter app showed signal strength was actually about 10% stronger on the skyrocket.

Everything ran faster/smoother or equal on every real world test i put the phones through.

Blacks were deeper on the org...colors more saturated. could really only see the difference with the phones side by side touching each other

In the end ....I am in a strong lte market and the LTE is plenty enough for me to be happy with the skyrocket.

As mentioned

You either have a bad phone, are being over critical, or you are drinking the kool aid

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] dvandam:
What do you all mean by "The Audio Sucks?" Seems to be okay for me, but then again 99% of the time I use the audio is with headphones. Doesn't sound any better or worse than my Nexus One did. The speaker audio doesn't seem to sound that bad either, being a bit better than the N1.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
Lol...they are all over the webs

I have no interest in tracking them down for ya.

Its the yamaha sound chip in this phone that many blame if I recall correctly

I however believe it is software related. on a few roms its litterally 10 times better.

Keep in mind "the audio sucks" ...on the stock rom. the sound is severely distorted and just plain nasty

I too, have a low post count. However I'm on XDA almost daily since July '10 (finally "joined in Oct '10). That doesn't make us idiots, BUT the low post count does make people suspect. You gotta earn your respect so to speak....

Anyways, I come from the Captivate and after comparing both OGS2 and the Skyrocket side by side, I ended up paying the extra for the Skyrocket.

I ran about every ROM available for the Captivate and I gotta say the stock rooted SR is head and shoulders better than any ROM on the SGS Captivate (im talking FUNCTION and leaving the wallpapers and flashy stuff out of it). I haven't seen any of the issues the OP is complaining about. Sound and call quality has been outstanding. The screen is great, it sometimes seems a bit washed out compared to the Voodoo compatible kernels on the SGS. I'm sure some kernels will show up (they may already be out there - I'm still stock) that will make the screen "pop". Remember how much better voodoo color made the amoled screen on the first Gen SGS?

This phone is truly a great device. But remember - nothing is perfect. If it was, we'd never need an upgrade.

Enjoy your SR and remember what we all had 3-4 years ago.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II Skyrocket SGH-I727] 00mred00:
Somewhere in the threads you guys must have missed that I have two skyrockets and absolutely love them...but they like any other phone are far from perfect.

I "lol" at the fact that someone can post their thoughts as the op did, get the bandwagon treatment...only for other skyrocket owners to start their own kool aid stand :p

After 5 phones we finally got two with no extremely noticeable defects and we are happy. I had the opportunity to test both galaxy units many days prior to release, and had the opportunity to do so again yesterday and I am still extremely happy with the decision I made to keep the skyrockets.

I have actually had 0 call quality issues. That was one of my customers. the audio issue i refer to is line out audio distortion...which is pretty much gone after flashing quickwiz or a number of roms that I have tried.

In other news we went ahead and tested a third phone in the area that had voice calling issues. the inspire had the same results as the two galaxy phones.

So...solution? that dude needs to move :D

Agreed on this. The i777 screen and call quality is worlds better.

I've exchanged 4 different skyrockets for the problems you talk about....its not just you.

Don't mind the people who troll you for not having posts - the only reason they have high counts is because they love to troll others posts. It's pretty obvious once you've been in this forum a while. There are a few that I'd love to add to an ignore list if it were possible.
