You guys that we are being used as Samsung's test dummies? I'm sure these "leaks" are used for testing purposes before they are circulated in full. But I guess we are collectively more than happy to be the test dummies :)

I am running calks latest FB27 stock rooted release and the big thing that I have noticed is when trying to set up the face unlock the screen where it captures your face is all green and so is the lock screen portion where it tries to recognize my face.....it worked flawlessly on previous builds....anyone else having this issue????

Hey, dumb question, but has there been any forward motion on getting Ad Hoc working in WiFi for ICS? That's all that's keeping me from using this as a daily driver. (I reverse tether at work due to crappy signal there)

I'm getting a fail when trying to Odin rogue_ET-recovery-1.2.1-FB21-rc0.tar

What's causing this please?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dubs.law:
I installed this cuz I wanted to give it a try and play with ICS finally. My problem is two-fold. My windows computer is currently busted and I'm not completely familiar with command line heimdall operation. I figured out heimdall enough to install the FB21 stock kernel/rogue repack. thinking that would give me a custom recovery, it didn't.

I now want to go back to my nandroid, but am afraid that if i flash cwm through rom manager and then restore my nandroid, I might brick my phone. True?

Without a windows computer and Besides figuring out OS X command line using heimdall or its stupid frontend, is there any other way i can restore my nandroid?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
You can use mobile odin from tje market.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beserker15:
Download rogue EL29 kernel. Flash it with stock recovery (power offf, hold volume + and power while booting up) and select flash update from external sd card (obviously you would need an external sd card). Then just install the zip.

Alternatively you can also use mobile odin to flash the kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
That kernel not gonna work force closed lots of android core application just wait for steady to repack new recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dubs.law:
wouldn't there be a problem flashing a GB kernel on an ICS ROM?

I think i'm going to give mobile odin a try to flash the stock rooted el29 rom/kernel/modem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 3volution:
Alright, thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] m_reyna_16:
somebody posted a green background while on face unlock, this happened to me when i flashed the fb21 kernel.... does anybody have an odin of the stock kernel so that i can go back to it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
If u guys wanna go back to your previous nandroid this is how i did it(several times all the leaks of fb )

U can use stock recovery to flash kernel repack from external sd only.

Only ics kernel repack no gb kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JOEOZUNA4U:
i was having problems with wifi disconnecting every 10 mins.. i rebooted my phone with wifi turned on and so far i havent lost wifi for the past 4 hrs... it must be my lucky day :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
Flashing gb kernel on ics gives u blue light of death.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beserker15:
The only problem with flashing a GB kernel on an ICS rom is that the rom itself won't boot up. Once I flash rogue's EL29 using stock recovery, I just hold vol up and power to enter rogue's recovery and nandroid back from there.

I have a quick question. Last night it was asked if you could flash this through stock recovery. John_Corleone said no. I am sure he said no for a reason. So, if you read this I would love your input too.

Well, I tried it. It work and I got root. So, it appears to be possible. Is there a reason why you shouldn't do it? Other than not being about to clear dalvik cache. Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mimis_69:
Whoa, battery life is shocking.

Had my phone on airplane mode for more than 4 hours and just got home right now.

I sent two text messages and made three phone calls. Wonder what's devouring my battery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_hubbard:
Most of the issues people are running into are bricking your phone while 1)running an ICS ROM of any type and 2)using a CWM-based recovery at the same time.

The CWM-repacks are all using CWM that came from GB. sfhub mentioned somewhere that he thinks the /data partition has moved/changed on ICS and that using a GB-based CWM to wipe/flash/etc is what may be causing these problems.

EDIT: BTW, what part of KC are you?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
How did you flash the ROM in a non CWM recovery? I am very curious as to what exact steps you took and your previous setup. Are you referring to the recovery with the Android guy holding a cube or something? When i advise against something its because it wasnt in OP's directions. I would love it if we can flash from stock recovery...very curious
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdcarter67:
i think this might be the best battery life i have ever had with ANY ROM. I fully charged the battery and removed the battery for 5 minutes, then replaced the battery and turned the phone on. My stock battery only charges to 99%, so i've gone 1h 25m without dropping a single %. Right now i'm @ 98% & 1h 47m. Running all FB27.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
John, it will only flash off the external sd card.

I was on stock FB27. I just booted into recovery. Ya, the android guy one. The stock recovery. I wiped cache. I clicked the rom and just let it do its thing.

And it worked. I had super user and everything.

And to the KC question.

I live in Briarcliff if you know where that is. Just north of the downtown airport.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smoothone:
I am sure you didn't flash this through stock recovery. You might think it was stock recovery but I bet you anything it was not. Please elaborate as to your steps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smoothone:
So you were on stock FB 27 and flashed SB 27 again?

I like this ROM. best battery life for ICS rom so far for me. My only complaint so far is that the notification sounds and sounds in general are not as loud as GB roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
Ya. Stock to stock rooted. I was being lazy and didnt feel like getting out of bed to odin a custom recovery. I wanted root to get my apps off of backup. I said what the heck, I have insurance.

I am going to try again. If I am not back in 10 call insurance for me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
No he flashed superuser .zip to get root.

I flashed steady ics kernel with stock recovery so many times to get back to gb from ics but note not everything u flash will be successful.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
No, I flashed the whole rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Thats why I advise sticking to directions in OP. I am definately surprised flashing from stock recovery but I wont recommend it because it may confuse the nOObs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:
You were in fb 27 and u flashed deoxed rooted fb 27 by caulkulin fro stock recovery right.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lafester:
yeah i've flashed a few through stock recovery. probably just a glitch with the test builds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JOEOZUNA4U:
people are saying they can flash the ICS theme through stock recovery
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smoothone:
I thought stock recovery on most any phone would check to see if it was a legit update.zip file. Guess that's not the case, interesting. I think it might just be the case with HTC phones.

Whats the number to sprint insurance?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
Quick initial things I noticed ...

- The nice homescreen transition animation in Touchwiz is gone.

- Scrolling wallpaper isn't working again (was working with the "Live wallpapers" and "Wallpapers" categories)

- 3G Speed is the same for me as it was on FB21, but it's always good for me

- The error message about "Not enough room on Home Screen" still pops up when installing a new App, even when there is room

- Receiving a Sprint VVM notification still causes a FC

Going to go outside and check out GPS in a minute. So far, I almost feel like this build is a step backwards lol. The only way I'll change this view is if my WiFi auto-reconnects when I come back to my office, and if Bluetooth will connect to my car.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
Sorry you feel that way. Only thing I've seen wrong is the missing tw transitions. I have scrolling wallpapers, much faster 3g, and I'm not getting your last two errors.
