DISCLAIMER ​

Alright I'd like to just make a few statements. First off, just like with the new leaks of ICS we do not have source for these Jelly Bean Leaks yet. There is no way for us to compile a kernel from source. Agat63 has made a repacked kernel, but he does not have his own E4gT to TEST with. Hopefully Adam Outler will be able to get the information he needs to try and help us get the bootloader unlocked on this device... Until such time everyone has to try and be understanding that this can effect a few things such as bootanimation support (kernel), cwm support (kernel); it can also effect certain system apps such as the framework-res.apk and the SystemUI.apk. BECAUSE OF THIS..I am NOT including cwm recovery to this ROM and once you flash this rom you will be on a STOCK kernel/recovery and will lose CWM. it is VERY IMPORTANT that you follow the directions below to a "T". If you end up in a boot loop I will NOT help you if you did NOT read the directions. This ROM is solid as hell but can be a HUGE headache if you don't know what you are doing, or don't follow directions well. IF you are a newbie on this forum and arent fully comfortable flashing yet, this ROM is not for you. IF you don't know the difference between a CWM kernel and a STOCK kernel or how to use ODIN/ MOBILE ODIN... then move along....

BEFORE anything.. Make SURE you have the following items on your external sd card :

a) a CWM or ICS CWM recovery tar IN CASE OF A BOOT LOOP... even down the road.. you could flash some toggles and end up in a boot loop. ..Get any of the kernels you need here at Rwilco's kernel repository HERE..

b) Agats FK23 repacked CWM kernel tar or zip... preferably both found HERE..

c) the FK23 modem.tar/zip in case you need to reinstall your modem and a ICS/GB modem.zip/tar in case you need to restore or would like to go back to gb or ics. (jb and ics/gb modems are specific to thier respective platforms) download any of the E4gT modems at Rwilco's Modem repository found HERE

d) PC ODIN (if you are at home near your PC) but I reccommend you have MOBILE ODIN/ MOBILE ODIN FLASH KERNEL for your device

e) JB Black Bean with Jelly zip and The JB Black Theme Keeper/Appz fix zip.

f)ALWAYS MAKE A NANDROID BACK UP... YOU WILL BE SORRY IF YOU DON'T. and in this case I suggest that you have your internal and external sd cards backed up to your pc prior to flashing JB builds for now.

How To Perform a Successful Nandroid Back Up and Restore Using Mobile Odin And Agats FK23 CWM repack on these Jelly Bean Leaks​

I've had a LOT of confusion as to how to do this and several people saying they will wait to get in on this jelly goodness cause they're nervous about a backup. I've done this SUCCESSFULLY over 50 times and no problems yet... not a single bootloop and kept all my mods. So, This is how you can perform a successful nandroid back up and restore to your Jelly Bean Rom.. This is ONLY for Jelly Bean and Not if you are running ICS or GB.

To Create a Nandroid Back Up on Jelly Bean

1.WHILE YOU ARE RUNNING JELLY BEAN... Mobile odin Agat's Repacked FK23 kernel to obtain a JB recovery.

2.Select Back UP/ and Restore. - Back up

3. Let it run the back up and reboot. Rename to something that lets you know that its a JB back-up.

To Create a Restore Back to JellyBean

After making a Jelly Bean Backup, Lets say you want to go back to ICS or you want to flash another Jelly Bean Leak, But you're just LOVIN the way you have it set up on this JB Black Bean and kinda leary about flashing something else without a back up of this sweet set up? Here's how to do it...

1. Get to a ICS or GB kernel with either Mobile Odin, PC Odin, or CWM zip.

2. After Wiping everthing, flash your ROM or flash your ICS restore point. Reboot phone as normal. Run your Rom..now back to JELLYBEAN.

3.WHILE YOU ARE RUNNING ICS...TO RESTORE..

a)boot into ICS recovery

b) wipe cashe, dalvik cashe, Factory Data Reset..

c) flash Either STOCK JB or THEMED .. JB Black Bean with Jelly ROM

d) when ROM finishes flashing reboot.. but no need to sign into Google.. we're about to do a restore.. Just click No to all of Google's questions, give them your name.. and hit finish. Now go to your "my files" in the app drawer, select ext. sd... navigate to where you have the Mobile Odin and Mobile Odin Flash kernel and install both. Then go back to the app drawer and open Mobile Odin. Select Kernel and navigate to where you have Agats FK23.tar or zip and flash it with Mobile Odin. reboot.

e)boot into JB recovery. go to backup/restore. -restore - select your JB restore point - yes ... let the restore run.... reboot.

You Just did a Successful Back Up and Restore on Jelly Bean without losing recovery ... for very long. Now if you feel the need but its not necessary, you can re flash the STOCK JB FK23 kernel.

While you are on JB.. Make SURE you are on the same CWM Agat FK23 JB kernel that you made the BackUp and do your Restore.Basically.

2.Select install zip from sd: Navigate to where you downloaded the JB Black Bean with Jelly zip and select, -- install zip? 'YES'
