It means you can't get OTA's, does not mean you won't get annoying notifications if Sprint reads your build.prop and sees you are not on the latest. So no, you cannot remain on EL30 CleanGB and get the FC09 update. You will need to edit the file or flash an FC09 ROM.

Thanks.

Kenny has been doing his best to moderate threads prior to his moderator abilities for months. I've done my best to answer questions and quell arguments since I've joined, but it takes the patience of a saint to stick with it like he has.

Once more, Use the Search feature. If it doesn't work, use Google Search to scour XDA. Isn't Google how you all ended up here at one point in time, anyway? :D More specifically, if you've worked your way up the requisite post number to be in a development thread, you should know what's acceptable to post and ask.

To anyone STILL looking:

If you are not on FC09, you will get consistent notifications to update. AND If you are not running your phone as Sprint intended, a.k.a. on a custom rom, then this update WILL FAIL. Samsprint built in a new updater that we cannot yet stop. Editing your build.prop to read FC09 is the only way to stop it besides updating to FC09.

Perhaps some of us should make that our signature? Nonetheless, this is a currently non-updated thread about CleanGB EL30. Please keep it on track with questions regarding that. Concerns over Sprint updates belong in the Q&A.

TL;DR? Let me sum up. FC09 update will fail. Have to edit build.prop. Stop asking here.

Thanks Kenny and thanks Random for being on top of ALL this. It does take a little back reading to find the FC09 edits, and I'm thankful they were reposted. Really do hope that the Toad can find time for an update with the FC09 build in there. There is a reason SO many people find his ROM so agreeable.

Extended FC09 testing

Hey everybody!

Now that we've had some time to try FC09 with CleanGBv1.1.2... does anybody have any extended FC09 observations he/she would like to share?

I haven't done more than a few days of testing with FC09 at one time, so I don't have any groundbreaking thoughts/ideas on the topic.

--SN
[Epic 4G Android Development] orlzzt:
You mean... you tried EB's FC09 kernel with CleanGB 1.1.2?
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Yeah, that still doesn't make CleanGB FC09, nor does the modem update. But it should work fine. You will still need to edit build.prop to not get update notifications.
[Epic 4G Android Development] benjamins_2002:
I cannot find "build.prob" in the file.

Is it "ro.build.version.incremental=EL30" that I need to change?
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
Everywhere you see el30 change it to fc09... 5 spots I believe
[Epic 4G Android Development] jigabop:
this should prevent your phone from receiving the update notification:

download the terminal emulator app

open terminal emulator

type the following into the terminal:

su

remount rw

sed -i 's/SPH-D700-user 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD EL30 release-keys/SPH-D700-user 2.3.6 GINGERBREAD FC09 release-keys/g' /system/build.prop

sed -i 's/sprint\/SPH-D700\/SPH-D700:2.3.6\/GINGERBREAD\/EL30:user\/release-keys/sprint\/SPH-D700\/SPH-D700:2.3.6\/GINGERBREAD\/FC09:user\/release-keys/g' /system/build.prop

remount ro

you can also update your modem to the FC09 modem by downloading here: http://d-h.st/kAt and putting it in the phone slot of ODIN

thanks to qbking77

**NOTE**

you can't just update the modem and expect update notifications to go away. The commands above WILL stop the notifications. The modem is just for if you want to run the latest version of the modem drivers, but the modem alone will not stop the notifications. You must run the commands or manually edit your build.prop file to get notifications to stop. The commands above edit specific lines in the build.prob via command line. just type exactly as is in there and it will work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Frostacious:
That's way more in-depth and I thank you since I've recently started having the same problem.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jbadboy2007:
I'm only creating awareness here. If you google " samsung epic stop el30 notifications" the first result is flast noles thread here on xda with instructions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
I find it a lot less complicated to just edit the build.prop with root explorer and reboot, but that long adb method will work too. Whichever you prefer, the result is the same. Thanks for that.
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
Thread Cleaned.

And Sadie, TPR has been using the FC09 kernel since we asked Earthbound to make it for The Peeple and it has worked great. There are not any major differences between the EL30 kernel source and the FC09 kernel source so it should work as well as putting the Samurai kernel on EL30...as usual some phones with like it and some won't. Have you had any issues? It is mixing FC09 kernel on an EL30 ROM but as stated not a major change in source.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SadieNibblesworth:
Hey Kenny!

I would say "thank you" for clearing the flame war off of here, but I thought it was pretty entertaining. I mean, you gotta let haters hate! LOL!

I tried pretty much every Samurai kernel through the 3.0.1 release (when there was the -+, +-. --. ++ distinction, remember that?)... and found that a stock version of Nubernel's kernel worked well up until CleanGB 1.0 (aka version 19, I believe).

The Samurai kernel that was the *most* stable for me was version 2.0.6... which was yanked from the forums when 2.0.8 came out, and I can't for the life of me figure out why. The only thing I do that would require any sort of kernel oversight is that I underclock regularly to 600MHz or 800MHz.

Do you find that the new Samurai versions are more stable than the CleanGB kernel now? I haven't been keeping up or testing with new kernels for more than a month.

--SN
[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
The only thing I can say for sure besides being built from FC09, the MTD version is as stable as any other kernel I have ever used. And yes I remember the craziness that was Samurai and I too found 2.06 the best. Then I moved to shadowkernel after that because my phone didn't like all that + and - stuff. But I asked EB to cut back on all the crazy speed tweaks as I wanted the most stable kernel I could get for my ROM.
[Epic 4G Android Development] wolfen1086:
So far Shadow has been the most stable on mine with either BML or MTD
[Epic 4G Android Development] Devtodi:
My wife's phone is getting update notifications. How can I stop this? Running stock kernel and FC09 modem. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SadieNibblesworth:

I actually re-read my post and have to call myself out for an ultra-mega-n00b violation.

[Epic 4G Android Development] evilsock:
is the modem included in this rom oe do i need to odin that?

edit.....crap, i saw. damn i wish i could just odin the modem and then flash this rom,

is it to much to ask why someone cant make a el30 modem flashable in odin? im not asking someone to, id just like to know whats preventing it
[Epic 4G Android Development] flastnoles11:
No the modem is not included, you will retain the same as you had before you flashed the rom... and if you want ei22 or el30 modem there is no odin flashable tar yet only way to get them is to flash in cwm...

Lockscreen...Slide to...

I love the lockscreen with the slide to unlock on the left and the sound on/off on the right. I use the sound on/off all the time.

However, it seems to me that the sound on/off icons are switched.

For instance, the slide to unlock, show a picture of an unlocked lock, which means that if I want to unlock, I slide it. That is, when the phone is locked we see the slide to unlock it. We slide the action we want.

It's backwards on the sound slide. When the sound is on, we see the speaker meaning sound is on. And that if I want to turn the sound off, I slide the speaker. Instead, to be consistent with the unlock slide, we should slide the vibrating phone slide to turn the sound off.

Maybe I'm just being picky, but it bugs me that they are different. OCD?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jigabop:
did you open a terminal and type in the commands I posted? if not, that's why...

you can't "just" update the modem. I just said you can also update the modem if you want to run the latest modem as it does not effect the rom in any negative way.

You have to type those commands via a terminal if you want the notifications to stop...

or download that build.prop they posted and overwrite the one you have with it..

[Epic 4G Android Development] mbellot:
I started with CleanGB but moved have been really happy with the Connection Optimizer built into FC09 on TPR - it has added hours to my usable battery life.

Combined with some wireless tweaks for the router I found in a CM9 thread I'm getting fabulous battery life (today I'm at 89% after 7 hours).

CleanGB is a fantastic ROM, but TPR is just a bit better IMHO.
[Epic 4G Android Development] XXCoder:
Yeah even if cleangb never updates again I'll stay with it, unless cm9 gets around same stability and battery life.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Frostacious:
Battery life is better than beta 2 and the same if you consider always having sync on all the time since I have yet to find a option to disable it. The only thing you need is a good task killer and honestly batteries great. Charged all night used all day from 8am till now 11:42pm battery at 2%. Now that's great for me and cleangb only got me about two hours more which to me not that important unless on vacation cause GPS eats up the battery.

Anyone else start getting the Sprint FC09 Update notification? I didn't receive it for the longest time (running CleanGB MTD) and then out of the blue last week got the "update is downloaded and ready to install... phone will restart"

So I did the usual; let the phone restart, pulled battery, power on. No more problems.

Fast forward about ten days "update is downloaded and ready to install.... phone will restart"

Anyone else?

[Epic 4G Android Development] KennyG123:
To answer Orllzt question, you have to start with stock FC09 deodexed ROM, add themed files, add all the mods such as hotspot, lockscreen, volume down/silent step, and whichever else you want, as well as power menu, then update the kernel to FC09 source, realize Samsung mislabelled the LED calls, fix that, add root in there, test the heck out of it all, and viola!

I tried using Astro File Manager to change "EL30" to "FC09" but AFM force closes every time I try to save the changes. And I don't want to spend $4 for Root Explorer when the chances of me ever using it again are almost nil. I tried the other one you mentioned "FS Explorer" or something like that. I absolutely could not find the system files. It would only show me what was on the SD card.
