Hi all, I finally switched to ICS FD24. I was previously on EL29 with different modems as they came out. By the way thanks to everyone who produced these leaks and guides I appreciate them a lot.

When I was on EL29 I had the Sprint Hotspot hack. I've seen in other ICS ROMs that they have the hack baked in. Where do I find it if I want to add it to stock rooted ICS?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
When the NS4G came out, most people on the OG Epic said it wasnt an upgrade because it had a lesser camera and same internals but honestly I still have fun on it every night up to this day. Like Sextape said, all the source code is there. I still get nightlies for the same ROMs the GNex does. I like having one phone I go nuts flashing on and one that runs great as is. That doesn't mean I made my decision but I can't fault anyone that gets it. Maybe I don't see it as cut and dry because I have 2 lines and even if I get the GNex I could still get the S3. Fortunately my upgrade isn't til June 1st so I can make a rational decision when those specs come out

Hey all again,

So I was playing with FD24 and found that samsung may have changed the Videos app. I don't know if this is in all the ICSs or not. When I try to watch a mkv file is says it can not play. If I try to watch an avi is stutters like crazy. If I use BSplayer everything works fine. When I was on EL29 I had no problems running any media file.

Any ideas?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
We kind of lost darchstar too. He switched to the at&t skyrocket. He is still doing some deving for the epic touch but not as much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krisI0N:
We have 8Mp (obviously =D), seems like a downgrade ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
Its a downgrade in my opinion. At least on sprint. We have a better rear camera and a better front facing camera (2mp vs 1.3mp on the g nexus). We have 4g wimax and g nexus wont get lte support until at least the end of the year in most areas. But the g nexus will have a much better custom rom scene which might be worth at least to me. However I am staying with the e4gt because I have my e4gt on virgin mobile and you cant flash the g nexus to other cdma carriers.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] clshores:
So now that we have the OTA available how long does it typically take to get source? Once source is available there will be a huge outpouring of ICS builds from many fine developers.It is about to get interesting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Fendulon:
Well we have some people (Including Calkulin) saying that this is not the OFFICIAL OTA, but rather OTA releases like this have existed for every single leak we have seen, but this is the first OTA leak we have been given, so this isn't necessarly a final OTA. From what I have read though, we should actually have source BEFORE the OTA is delivered to E4GT owners via the Sprint Network.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
Actually, I think Calkulin said we they make OTA's for all the updates and he can't confirm this is the final.

And if it isn't, I am sure there are people here that still appreciate it. There is no denying this is the best version we have seen yet. I have been told by 2 people at Sprint that they think this is the final but they are still testing it. If they find a bug you all will know. It will be obvious when we see another RDF.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Eric1985:
Hey guys hopefully this isnt a dumb question. I just got a replacement recently and I knew or wished ICS was coming soon so I never rooted again from my previous one just stayed stock but if we do this manual update and its NOT the official one or if there is a bug and have to get it thru OTA how would we undo it and go back to GB? Just plug in ur phone and delete it it from the SD card? Also its probably common sense Im just going brain dead tonight if its not the final build and say the real one comes out in a week or whatever can we still do the OTA while on this or would we have to go back to GB 2.3.6?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
This may or may not end up being the official OTA. I'm sure you'll see the leak for the official ICS release before it hits the OTA servers, but you won't know at the time it first goes out (and neither will Sprint) for sure it is the OTA as there might be things broken that need to be fixed.

Once Samsung posts the source, then you know they are commited and you can be confident the most recent leaked release will become the official release.

They never just put something out and immediately put up source and call it "official" There is always some period they wait to make sure they don't have a major issue. It is costly to put out a bad OTA release as people start complaining to Sprint and using up support and retail staff resources.

---------- Post added at 07:50 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:45 PM ----------

The ICS OTAs will be based on the last official release, which is EL29.

If you flash this and they decide it will be the official release then you are fine. If they find issues and need to do more releases, then they will again be based upon EL29, so you would need to downgrade back to EL29 if you wanted to apply the *OTA*.

However, I'm sure we'll have the official release in ODIN or CWM format, in which case you wouldn't need to go back to EL29.

For example the FD24 ODIN OneClick can flash on top of any version:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1618724

There will be something similar available for whichever ends up being the official release.

If you need to go back to EL29 after flashing an ICS release, one of the easiest ways is to flash the Full version of the EL29 ODIN OneClick.

Thanks so much sfhub! The only thing other than all the stuff you mentioned is if I have to go back to EL29/GB/2.3.6 ha do I delete it from my SD card then recovery and select factory reset or how do I go back

As I mentioned before, just flash this:

You don't need to delete anything from your sdcard. Those updates will not be installed unless you manually select them to be installed.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Samsung looks like they will be sticking with a non scrolling wallpaper to stick with endless scrolling across the home screens. Therefore, their wallpaper picker sets 480x800 images. I doubt they will do anything to accommodate the stock ics launcher, but I could be wrong.

Try quick pic from the market to set wallpaper on stock ics based launchers.

That's not the case anymore. Download the ROM manager app and flash last est verion. When it prompts you to pick your phone choose sgs2 not e4gt. Then reboot into recovery. The only fault is that you can't access your external SD. But you can make a backup and restore through internal.
