[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] usncpg45:
I was noticing after some testing using the PA Rom that my 4G speeds were noticeably slower. I had never really tested them before while I was running the Stock Rom, so I didn't have a baseline to go off of, thus I didn't really know what kind of speeds to expect from Boost/Sprint.

So on the PA Rom with the FI27 modem, I would average between 500-800kbps download speeds over 3G. With 4G, the average was about 1.5-2mbps.

To test, I went back to the Stock Rom, unrooted, and was getting close to 1.5mbps down on 3G and 7-10mbps on 4G.

After rooting, the data speeds were painfully slow. About 50kbps down on 3G and 200kbps down on 4G! Ouch..

I read on here, that custom kernels will destroy Data speeds..I can confirm this.. lol

So I flashed this kernel from SexTape(much thanks) over at SXTP Developers: SXTP_Agat_BSTFI22-v0.1.0.zip WHICH, fixed all my borked data speeds.

This kernel comes with the custom recovery from Agat63(thanks for all your hard work Bro!) so if you're running the Stock FI22 Rom, all you have to do is flash this and SuperUser, and you're ROOTED.

Only thing is, my Baseband and Bulid Number now show up as FL24, not FI22. But don't really care, as long as my phone is stable and running as fast over the mobile data network as it is now.

Thanks to Sextape and Agat63 for their work on this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
If everything else is showing FL24 - which is the current Boost build - you may want the FL24 kernel + repack. Has a few more tweaks than the stock FI22... not to mention the Exynos exploit patched:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] usncpg45:
Garwynn,

This is what I'm showing now under About Phone. Is this correct or do you think I need the FL24 repack.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Have to check but think that kernel is fi22 compile as I didn't remove the dirty flag.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] usncpg45:
I flashed the FL24 v2.0 you linked to.. My data speeds were WAY lower than what i was getting with the FI22 v1.0 kernel repack.

I flashed back this morning because I use my Nexus 7 tethered to my SGS2 at work and wouldn't be able to tolerate low data speeds.lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dwayneiztheshyt:
So I downloaded the FI22 kernel pack and installed but my phone wouldn't boot. Is there any particular instructions I need to follow or does this kernel not work for this particular ROM? I'm currently using cm10.1
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
You need an AOSP kernel

Hey All,

I am really having some trouble rooting my boot mobile galaxy s2. I updated to FL24 without even realizing it and that easy root method has been patched. I tried other methods but i cannot get windows to recognize my phone to use ODIN, so ive been trying to use my MacBook with Heimdall, but i am not sure how it works.. Can someone please help me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Download the FL24 + Agat's recovery kernel:

...and this file:

Flash the kernel in Odin or Mobile Odin, then the zip in Agat's recovery.

Boom! Re-rooted!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mindstate:
I was never rooted before this. This is my first attempt at rooting my device will your link still work? And i cannot flash via ODIN because my windows will not recognize my phone, i am trying to figure out how to use Heimdall on my mac, do i just flash the same file in heimdall?

I think i figured out how to install via heimdall, i must extract the .tar and i end up with a zImage, then i use cli to flash heimdall: heimdall flash --kernel zImage

I will let you know my results, thanks garwynn.

edit: worked like a charm. device is rooted now :D thanks a bunch dude. that really helped out
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] usncpg45:
Garwynn, has anyone had any luck getting Google Now working with this ROM? If it's deodexed, we should just be able to flash it over right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
No one had reported even trying... at least that I have heard.

Data not working

I bought a Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch from boost and activated it yesterday. I installed CWM using Odin to root it and didn't make a backup because it wasn't rooted yet nor did I have much of anything installed on it. After flashing I got a boot loop. I fixed this by flashing a sprint rom on the phone. From here I installed WILD-FOR-THE-NIGHT-01142013-v2-d710.zip (a working cm10.1 rom). Everything works except the data, I don't get an icon for 4G or 3G, I'm not sure if 4G for sure doesn't work because I don't know for sure if I have coverage in my area as this was my first 4G phone. I've come to suspect that it's the kernel that I have installed but I'm not sure which one I need.

Does anyone know where I can find a good guide to Root this phone. I have the same, Galaxy s2 with 4.1.2

Go Here and you'll find Boost builds pre rooted.. [STOCK ROMS][CWM][ODIN] Stock ROM Repository - Find/Download Them All Here (SPH-D710)

Try flashing the modem listed by the OP if you haven't done so.WFTN won't work with a JB modem. Terry flashing an ICS modem and you should be good to go.

How do I get CWM on SPH-D710BST

Hi everyone,

Seeing that there isn't an official CWM recovery for the D710BST which CWM do I use? Do I use the Epic 4g Touch recovery (recovery-clockwork-touch-5.8.1.5-epic4gtouch.zip) :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
NO! In order to get recovery you need to flash a kernel. Our recovery is tied in with the kernel. Get out of rom manager before you brick your phone. Rom manager is not for this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zeyoner:
Well it's a good thing I didn't and asked before I did. So any recommendations?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jdsingle76:
GB27 kernels will work for Boost variants. But Garwynn has a Boost kernel with Agat's recovery. That's what I use as my dd. Here's the link.

My Razr Maxx supported PAN in the bluetooth menu without a "subscription".

Now trying to enable it on my new HD, I get a pop up that tells me call Verizon to enable the "subscription".

My phone always show battery as 100%, from past 1 month, i tried alot of things as-

1) Reset phone to factory setting.

2) Rom change - been on atleast 6 different roms

3) Battery Calibration ( used many calibration apps)

4) Tried diffrent Firmware also like XXJVT, XXJW4, XXJVU

5) Bought a new battery ( and this also shows 100%, so clearly its a phone problem not battery)

Searched and tried every possibility, I hope someone could help to fix this.

Thanks.

[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] madkel:
I thought I would bring attention to the Seeder app that has become quite popular as of late (see the link below), and to also see if any one has used the Seeder app on their RAZR HD and what their experiences with it have been.

In my experience, although the phone is still blazing fast on its own, I did notice less lag when returning back to the home screen (sometimes it would have to redraw... Could be placebo) and while browsing the web using Chrome (definitely not placebo). As for battery life, I have not noticed any decrease at all while having it active. I am using a rooted RAZR MAXX HD with stock ROM.

How have everyone else's experiences been with lag and battery life while using Seeder?

I tried it out on my atrix HD and it seemed better at first but then started lagging badly.

[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] madkel:
Hmm that's interesting. I haven't noticed any increase in lag while using it. Like I said earlier, the RAZR HD is already fast as it is, but it did help with Chrome and Maps.

I tested it on my old Droid X and it had a much more pronounced effect with that device. Probably will help older devices more so than the newer ones - especially on older Android OSs.
[RAZR HD Themes and Apps] Youngunn2008:
I changed my oom settings for ram usage cuz I was running low to like 50 mb or less all the time. That and I gave seeder another shot and all is lag free now.

I was experiencing screen redraw issues with the stock launcher. I had switched to Nova Launcher to address this issue and was happy with the elimination of the screen redraws.

Upon reading about Seeder I decided to give it a try with the stock launcher. No more redraws. I didn't change anything else, and can only conclude Seeder fixed this issue for me.

Hey I have an unlocked boot loader, stock 4.2.1 ROM but running ktoonz kernel. In order to get the next update will I have to re flash the stock kernel, recovery, and re-lock my bootloader? I'm really only familiar with Samsung galaxy devices where you can just ODIN everything
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldblue910:
You will need the stock kernel and your /system partition must be completely unmodified. Bootloader state and recovery don't matter. After accepting an update you will lose your custom recovery and root, so you will have to reflash but that's no big deal.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jms122589:

Please help!!!
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldblue910:
You have to flash both system and boot, plus do a full data and cache wipe. As long as you do that and you don't let root apps modify files on your /system partition, the update should install fine. Also, keep in mind that when you get the OTA notification on your phone, you cannot just select "Restart and Install" if you have ClockworkMod recovery. OTAs will only auto flash if you have stock recovery. If you're using ClockworkMod recovery, you'll have to pull the OTA file out of your /cache folder and put it on internal storage somewhere, then flash it manually in ClockworkMod.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jms122589:
OK so am I flashing the boot image and system image through fastboot? If so how do I do that? If not...how do I flash them?
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldblue910:
Correct. Just extract system.img and boot.img from the package you download, then plug your tablet into USB, boot it into the bootloader, and do the following two commands:

fastboot flash boot boot.img

fastboot flash system system.img

If you want to wipe data, also do:

fastboot erase cache

fastboot erase userdata

That'll get you back to complete stock.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Jms122589:
OK so were am I extracting these files to? Root of mysd card, desktop, etc? Thanks a bunch for your help btw I'm just not experienced at all with flashing outside of recovery or odin

Extract them to your desktop somewhere, then do fastboot from the command prompt.

I did all that you said but didn't understand this 'As long as you do that and you don't let root apps modify files on your /system partition' then i tried to update manually and it did again showed me an error like this:
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] oldblue910:
Did you use the JOP40C factory images downloaded from the Google website somewhat recently? That error is caused when you flash the original set of JOP40C images released when the Nexus 10 first came out. There was a bug in them that Google fixed. They posted new images. You can download them at http://developers.google.com/android/nexus/images or http://www.randomphantasmagoria.com/firmware/nexus-10/mantaray.

Also, what I mean about root apps modifying /system files...so there are a lot of root apps out there that make tweaks to your system...stuff like making changes to your GPS config files for quicker lock-on, you yourself going in and deleting unwanted apps out of /system/app, you or an app making changes to build.prop, installing busybox in the wrong place and having it overwrite system commands with its own...things like that. If you or any app make any change whatsoever to any file anywhere on /system, an OTA will fail every time. It checks the hash of each and every file before applying the update and if a single one of them doesn't match what it expects, the OTA will fail. So just keep that in mind.

But that error you're getting about set_perm is most definitely caused by using the original, bad set of images that Google put out there. Download them again, try again and you should be in business.

I notice it happens to me if I get the screen wet at all.
