I was just in your shoes recently. I was on stock EK02 + root. Decided to use blazerROM as my choice of ROM. I didn't get the OTA update yet, so I went ahead and ODIN the pre-rooted EL29 stock update. I just wanted to see if EL29 had any issues. I ran it for half a day and decided to stick with it. I backed up my contacts and SMS messages and Titanium backup of all my apps. I added CWM via the auto-root script from sfhub. From there, I made a nandroid back up (it saves to your external SD if you have one) and went ahead and flashed calks format all. then flashed blazer right after (stayed in the same menu). Everything is running great so far with no major issues. Once everything was running properly, I just restored my user apps (not system!) via titanium backup, my SMS messages, and contact list.

I also did the same steps for my wife's phone, but put calks rom on hers.

You won't regret flashing. Better battery life, more features, bloatware removed, ect. I don't think i'll be on stock anymore since we get the updates here on XDA faster than sprint pushes them out anyway.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
Thanks. I saw another one of your posts and was going to ask you to compare Blazer and Calks but I didn't want to be that guy! I'm just going to try them myself. That said, did you update your modem to EL29 before you moved to Blazer? I'm thinking of keeping EK02 since it works well for me and I've seen others say EL29 had problems.

@jasone4gt Thanks for the reminder on the back up. I've installed CWM, done the back up. Getting ready to flash Blazer now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tkemack:
You can jump back and forth with modems, so no biggie. If you're satisfied without then you know what they say, if it ain't broke....

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
Thanks everyone. Took the plunge and everything is great. Didn't update the modem. Installed CWM, did Nandroid and Titanium backups, flashed Calk's Erase All then flashed Blazer. Everything works great so far. It all looks great too. One minor thing. The signal strength indicator is grey color instead of blue like everything else. It's also blue in the screen cap in the second post. Is it supposed to be grey and do I have to flash a theme? Also, does anyone know what the screen density is? It looks a lot better than Stock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
Looking to do this as well. Can you tell me more about auto root? Completely new to the whole root and flash shindig.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
It's actually pretty easy. Just follow the instructions in the first thread in development to Auto root. Do step 1, download the e4gtauto-sfx.exe file and then run that. Select A to Root then C to install CWM. I'm not sure if you need to reboot your phone between A & C but to be safe, you might want to. Download the Blazer ROM and Calk's Erase All and copy that to your phone. Then boot into CWM by holding Up volume and Power while turning the phone on. Do the Nandroid back up in CWM. Then install Calk's then Blazer. That's it. You're done. There are a bunch of videos to help if you need it http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1268548
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tkemack:
It depends on what version he's on.

EL13 and up, he'll have to use the Odin package, also by sfhub. Then he would use the package you mentioned to run option C for CWM

Sent from my Blazing ET4G
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
Yup, I thought I mentioned that in my post but getting old I guess. If you're on EK02 or earlier, then you follow my instructions. If you're on EL13 or later, you have to do Odin. I don't know how to do that though since I've never done it as I was on EK02.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
Ok, run into a little problem. The hotspot hack worked fine right after flashing Blazer. I then did my restore from Titanium back up. Since that, the hot spot doesn't work. It says I'm not authorized. Did I restore something that undid the hack and is there a way to fix it besides doing a reset? Also, my signal strength indicator varied between grey and blue. Is that normal? And what is AOSP email? I installed it but it doesn't look any different than the Stock email. Thanks.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
Im on EL 29. Gonna use this how-to I think.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] frankquattrone:
Well, don't know if anyone cares but here are my thoughts on my experience. First off, I think Blazer looks a lot nicer than stock. I suppose you have to like blue. I still have no idea why but my signal strength indicator occasionally turns white. I think it's when either 4G or Wifi is on but it's minor. Sprint tethering works with both 4G and 3G. It seems like 4G disconnects every once in awhile. Sometimes it's the 4G (meaning Internet on the phone doesn't work either) and sometimes the PC hooked up loses Internet access. I mentioned in another thread, the tethering worked right after flashing but after I did a Titanium restore, it stopped working and I got an authorization error. Turns out turning off and on fixed that. I found out after reflashing that you can avoid this problem if you don't restore the data for Wifi Sharing and Wifi Sharing Manager apps. No problems with GPS (used maps and nav) or any other connectivity. Before reflashing, I tried out Madoggin's 13 homescreen from 12/4. I didn't use it long but it seemed to work fine. I just didn't like it because it installs a different theme (didn't like the notification icons) and it replaces the scrolling toggles on the status bar. In case you haven't discovered it, I found out that holding the toggles in Blazer will open up the settings page for that item, e.g. tap Wifi turns it on and off but hold Wifi and it'll open up Wifi settings. I still have no idea what AOSP email is. I installed it and it looked exactly like Stock. After reflashing, I didn't install AOSP email and it still didn't look any different. I guess the difference could be the notification because the one that comes with Blazer has a different envelope icon for new emails. Performance-wise, I haven't noticed anything really different. I thought Stock was a really smooth experience and Blazer seems no better or worse. Battery-wise, I have one data point. I have really bad signal at my office and I would lose 10% battery for every hour on Stock but with Blazer it was half that. Last thing which isn't related to Blazer per se but I had been looking forever for a music player widget. There was another post that mentioned that there is an app in the market called Galaxy S Music Widget that gives you the widget to control the default music player and it is awesome. I also tried Music Mod which I used with my old Streak. It seemed to work ok even though it says it's for Froyo only but it is a separate music player and doesn't work with the Samsung widget thingys on the lockscreen and the notification area. The upside is that it has a lot of different sized widgets. Hope that helps someone. In summary, Blazer's very cool and works great.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
Blazer v3.8 fixes this.

[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:

[Desire Android Development] 3f1f37:
Or the data++

Random noobs still pop up from time to time, nothing like a bRicked phone to give you a wake up call
[Desire Android Development] 3f1f37:
Even better bro, I was even on the official forum where its called "snack rom" because of the words dian xin. For some weird reason I couldn't download it from the official site.

Thanks
[Desire Android Development] gie62001:
not sure how much technical equipment you have lying around but if you had a cam and few minutes of spare time maybe you could upload the video. as i just put DX HOME launcher on my ICS tiny rom and its very nice, but not sure how deeply it is integrated into UI, what's kernel version? as from screenshots i can see its 3.0.8?

thank you
[Desire Android Development] Mr Hofs:
No hard feelings here, just asking a question....see the questionmark at the end of my post ;-)))))

[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:
could you make a conclusion and then i add it to OP ? so no one will go wrong just like you did
[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:
no , screenshots were taken from Nexus S with ICS version

others are still GB:(
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
Ok so this ROM is for STOCK hboot (i have 1GB ext3 partition)

Install like every other ROM Thats All
[Desire Android Development] backfromthestorm:
Isn't this just miui?
[Desire Android Development] danarama:

You said Gays

Its a cyanogenmod if u wait i just upload video
[Desire Android Development] ironman76:
Sorry Guys !!!!! Hahaha :-)
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
Most of what is different in this is user installable apk's. At least on the ICS version it is, havent tried the GB one.
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:

Ok here is video sorry for quality but im hurry
[Desire Android Development] EvertorN:
It looks pretty good. The only thing I dont like about this rom, is that the UI is'nt as fully integrated as in MIUI. You can still recognize some stock Android things, like progress bars, apps etc.
[Desire Android Development] lenny_kano:
I noticed that when I ported the ICS version as a test. Most of the apk's that aren't pure AOSP can be installed on any rom. So if you wanted you can use the contacts/launcher/whatever else from this in MIUI and have something different.

Only core system stuff like SystemUI won't work this way, as it's tied into the framework and would have to be signed with the platform key of the rom your using.
[Desire Android Development] suleman96:
Is the German Language included?
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
NO only English and Chinese
[Desire Android Development] blesal:
It looks great, it could put the Spanish language in next updates?
[Desire Android Development] CorradoSud:
Yep, it looks good but... How to select english?
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
What I did was press Menu select Settings (I know it by it's icon) then scroll down to the first icon with "A" (which normally for Language & keyboard), click the first option then I can select English.
[Desire Android Development] ali8383:
thanks i'll try it eight now :)

i hope its support arabic reading and writing
[Desire Android Development] jozef710i:
doesn support arabic.

This rom is only in English and Chinese
[Desire Android Development] ali8383:
great rom , thank you for this rom .

but its not android 4.0.3 :confused:

its 2.3.7 :p

anyway <<

i just install it on my s-on desire fat32 + 1024 mb ext3

this is some screenshot of my desire

in a second use its seems fast and stable :D

thanks and we r waiting for ICS update
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
So, not MIUI, or MIUI based? I know I saw it somewhere, but I just have to check. Looks, amazing. If not MIUI based, will try it :)
[Desire Android Development] ckpv5:
Not MIUI... it is CM based.

[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:
this and MIUI are all CM based-on , so ,let's say , they have same mum ...;)
[Desire Android Development] Hypercaine:
So, when can we expect global support? :)

I know that, what I meant to ask is, if it's not just another MIUI moddification, with different launcher :)
[Desire Android Development] Vinny1967:
Gave this a try yesterday but for some reason I couldn't select any gm networks so couldn't make any calls or even change date/time.It was almost like it didn't see my simcard.
[Desire Android Development] DrDee:
Been running this ROM for a couple of days. Flashed on stock hboot no problem.

Sort of like MIUI with an app drawer, which is good, the lack of app drawer is the main reason I don't use MIUI.

When in English you still find the odd things in Chinese so translation not 100%.

Overall a well thought out experience and a quite usable ROM, would be great to see some more effort go into it with new ROMs lacking a bit now on our antiquated Desires. LOL.
[Desire Android Development] flashjordan:
Ive tried this. I agree with what you say......I've went back to miui and downloaded dxhome from the market it the same launcher and its running perfect. Some of the stock apps are also available in the market.
[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:
:( i can't say , but we all hope it comes soon , because i live in Spain , it doesn't have my city as well
[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:
:( i have no idea about this , try reboot few times and manually have network selected/set
[Desire Android Development] qtwrk:
:p yes , some part of it still not fully translated , we hope it could get better
[Desire Android Development] DrDee:
Definitively the most exciting ROM I have tried in a while, but will probably go back to stock CM7 and use DXhome until the ROM is fully translated. Just wish I was clever enough to help in some way!

I really do look forward to some more progress on this ROM, reminds me of when MIUI was first being translated over :)

Hi qtwrk

Thanks for the bloody awesome rom :)

I checked few CPU clock apps and i think i am getting resonable battery life

I found few strings which were appearing in chinese language and will be happy to see in english as can not read chinese .

Basically I have selected the Indian languages as changed the by-default Driodsanfall font and now chinese language appearing as boxes and Indian languages are fine.. hope someone else will also confirm this as well.

I captured some of the screenshots, where I found chinese strings as I just explained it appears on my phone as boxes.

Hope this will help you to translate into English.

again Thumbs up for Rom
