Ok - my question is this - what roms will work on my VM SG2 - Model # SPH-D710VMUB - Android Version 4.1.2 - Software version GB28 ? Is it TW roms only ? Aosp ? Im just not sure - there are so many 4.2 based roms available but are any of them able to run on my phone - and if not, is there a easy explanation as to why ? Thank you !

Could be the mms.apk of that particular ROM doesn't support that option. Has it ever worked with phantom rom? I'm assuming you mean this(see screenshot)? Have you tried updating your ROM to another that may offer that option, say, a jb rom for example?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hshaik1980:
Thats exactly what I mean, not the msg icon on the middle but the scroll on the top on the notification panel where it says test.. It worked with starburst 1.95 rom. It works on this rom as well when the screen is unlocked, but when the screen is locked it doesn't work.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
All of the sprint roms will work with virgin mobile but you need to know how to correct the mms settings if you use mms and also make sure you use GB28 modem. I think it matters that you are on correct modem for your carrier.

I am on jellyverse and I see this. So you don't get this on GB27?

Epic 4g Touch

I recently bought an Epic 4g Touch with Gingerbread 2.3.6 on it stock, I rooted it using CWM 5.2.7 and I would like to install the Calkulin’s E4GT ROM. I've verified it's rooted in case that was the issue and I followed all the directions as far as using Calkulin's format all file prior to installing the rom. The installation beings but never actually finishes it just takes me back to the selection menu in CWM to reboot etc.. Any ideas? I tried another rom and it did the same thing, started installing but never finished.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Did you flash EL26 Stock kernel with CWM? Did you check MD5 for the rom zip?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Anthonygpace:
I searched all over the web and can't figure out how to do any of that. In fact odin just brought up errors when i tried to flash the kernel assuming I even did it right. Very lost right now.

Trouble with CM 10.1

I recently installed CM 10.1 Wild for the Night (05132013) on my Sprint Epic 4G Touch. I flashed it using AGAT Recovery (don't know if that's the official name). Everything went fine, I was also able to flash the Google apps, as well as the Android 4.2 keyboard. The only issue is that I can not get 3G data to work. Literally everything else on the ROM works fine. I don't know if I did something wrong or what. Any help would be appreciated.

What ROM did you come from? If it's jb you came from, chances are you're still on a jb modem. WFTN requires an ICS modem. Try flashing ICS modem and you should be good to go.

Okay, so does that mean I need to flash a ICS modem through Odin One-Click? Or can I just flash it in recovery? Or does it not matter?

Real quick question...sorry if this is dumb...but here goes...I've had history in the past of making backups and moving them to named folders so I know which they are..that seems to not play well whenever I move them...so my question is once I make a backup to SD card can I go into my clockwork folder and long click the nandroid and rename it? Will that mess it up? Just wondering...currently on latest beanstalk with fl24 and lz kernel

Thanks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] remotehugger:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fcjr77:
I just figured it out, you are right. I was using an agat recovery when I did the backup and now I am running CM 10 which I heard uses a different one. So how do I get back to stock to be able to take it to Sprint and get my new battery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
Flash EL29/FF18/FH13/FI27 odin one click unrooted. They are in rwilco's stock rom repo in dev forums.

Can't you just do what you did the first time and still use the prevail as a donor phone? I am not that familiar with what you are trying to do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
On the boost, I'm not much help since there is a whole process with haa passwords and all. If the donor esn is still valid, why not try a one click if the phone can get into Odin mode?

The cm10 recovery had been noted to use it's own backups. Meaning, if you backup with it, you have to restore from it. Not sure about restoring other backups.

I'd try and flash el26 or an Agat recovery and see if that succeeds. Or just do what Blues suggested.

Just to sidetrack you. Weren't folks flashing to the EL26 kernel just to backup and restore CM9 or AOKP a while back before they had safe recoveries too?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
I believe you're right. With cwm5 and cwm6 issues, it was hard to keep up. I don't venture in that arena much. Aocp has intrigued me and with cm beta 2 out now as well, I'm trying to catch up.

I did see however that Agats 6.2 thread had a comment about testing restores from prior kernels.

I think we're on the cusp of new issues not yet fully realized but personally, I haven't had any issue. But with that, I was on cwm5 when I restored back from aocp.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Was your prl/profile updated prior to flashing? If so, I wouldn't worry too much unless you're just having abysmal signal issues.

Were you using the el29 temp boot?

And on the GPS, did you try applying the jb tweaks by exit_only? Seeing good results in that thread.

I am on Calks Rom running ICS and am having a few issues.

1. I keep getting a FI27 Software Update reminder. I am able to clear it out of my notifications but 5-10 mins it's back again. It will interrupt whatever it is I am doing at the moment.

I've been told to freeze it via Ti Backup. I have the paid Pro version and under 'Backup/Restore' it's blank.

Should I be worried?

2. Is there a separate current radio I can download? My gps can never find my current location, rendering the turn by turn feature useless since I can't use it.

Any thoughts?

Should I try the temporary boot to EL29?

I believe yu can just no spaces or periods "."... I think theres an app that lets yu rename them as well and it's alil better for this since it tells you that yu cant use periods and corrects the spaces i think not sure.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BluesRulez:
The file names will tell you if its rooted or not.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
Bt, in order to "find" the backup, cwm looks in the clockworkmod/backup folder. If you move them from there, it will not locate them when you get "restore" Also, that is correct that you can go to your cwm/backup file and rename them, just make sure it is all one continuous stream, no spaces. Periods, dashes, are ok, because cwm actually uses both, labeled like 2013-04-28.17.17.29. I move them from internal cwm/backup folder to external cwm/backup all the time, but that's where cwm looks for them, only, so don't move them anywhere else and expect to find it and use it in recovery :) Enjoy

The one-clicks here are rooted, hence the name root/stock. Rwilco12.com has VM's latest jb unrooted build(GB28). And no, you do not need to chi back to ICS to return it since the jb release is official.

SG's Sense 5 Theme...

Noob question so posting here,

I would like to replace Apex with Nova in SG's theme, but nothing else. I had a quick look at the files in the v4 zip, and wanted to know if it'd be possible to drop in Nova apk for and delete the Apex apk. If I changed the permissions for Nova, would it work?

Something tells me the answer is no, but figured I'd ask.

Thanks in advance.

Best,

Mike

Yes you can. Just drop it in system/app and delete APEX and you'll be fine.

PC Connection Issue

I cannot get my phone to connect to my computer; when plugged in it will begin to charge but my computer will not recognize it. I am currently running reVolt however the problem seems to have started after flashing Wild for the Night. I have tried mounting USB storage, but it only gives me an option to "unmount the sd card from [my] pc". I have also enabled USB debugging under the developer options, but it still won't connect. It also won't connect when in download mode meaning I can't flash back to EL29 and start over.

new roaming LOS with unique symptom

I have been running a March 2013 release of WILD FOR THE NIGHT since it came out, with no serious problems. When I took the phone to Japan, I enabled international roaming (voice+text only) and got texts going through for at least an hour or so. When I checked the phone the next day, however, my network type was UNKNOWN.

Here's where it gets interesting. I still had a valid number for the signal dBm (-73 to -85ish), but I could no longer open the "Mobile Network" setting menu; it would just give me the "A unknown error has occurred in com.android.phone" with report/quit buttons. Texts and phone calls stop working.

So I flipped out and flashed it back to el29 stock using e4gt after trying a bunch of Nandroid backups and versions of WILD FOR THE NIGHT, with full wipes in between. I can't update the PRL from here it seems, so at this point it's 22095. This works. No LOS, no problem, except that it's the bloated stock ROM, and I don't want to use it.

I didn't give up here, so here are some steps to reproduce (again, and again, and again). If anyone has feedback about what steps are irrelevant or whether or not logcat can catch all of this, let me know and I will do it.

Flash to el29 using gui Odin

Use e4gt to get back to el26 kernel as recommended by Beanstalk dev

wipe, wipe, wipe

Install BeanStalk1.225-20130521-d710.zip through CWM 5.0.2.7

Install slim gapps

Reboot

Skip through google account setup

Go straight to mobile network settings

Enjoy com.android.phone error

At this point, the network is "International," the mobile network is CDMA - EvDo rev. A:6, and my baseband is el29. Texting works, but for how long, I don't know, and I'm afraid to turn it off, reboot, or restore any of my crap with it like this.

So my question is, what's the right way to get my phone set up so it stops acting shifty with the network settings and connects properly?

I will update with more tomorrow if this is the right place to post to, and if anyone wants to see the same with WILD FOR THE NIGHT (actually this one was worse like I said, no network at all) instead of Beanstalk, as well as PAC, since I want to get one of these three working. If you want logcat let me know too.

Our phone does not support international roaming. If you are planning to use this phone permanently over there, it will need to be flashed to a different carrier.
