[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Joker1716:
Got a phone on eBay cheap that being said I did some things that normally shouldn't be done but the devices are so similar that it worked overall I wouldn't try if its your only phone I like the d710 so I did some digging and trying I don't think there is a ROM I have not flashed on here that is available I've even ported some have four d710s all together first time I tried this I got it to work but USB fried I guess from i9100 old bootloader the second time u was even less careful from my d710 cm11 running ROM I installed a kernel flasher I backed up the kernel I got a i9100 lollipop rom ,aosp kernel from rwilco12 I believe just started using it actually but changing the updater script asserts to match the d710 even the whole script pasted in works (except for the write boot part ) changing the device names on the build prop to match and changing libril. Whatever to libril40 like the d710 path zipped and flashed lollipop on d710 if the screen sleeps it restarts system ui so i changed sleep display setting to thirty minutes update supersu zip got me rooted no WiFi Bluetooth works though SD works but ext SD does not so I had to Bluetooth a lot of apps to the phone storage the file manager works to install the package installer works and installs apks fully rooted kernel flashed rebooted restored my backup and back on d710 I have also flashed a i9100 kernel and recovery the d710 recovery will flash a i9100 Kitkat compatible recovery but the i9100 recovery will only flash i9100 ROMs so went from d710 recovery flashed i9100 recovery and installed any i9100 lollipop ROM I have found the problems with WiFi is present in all but to the point it force closes the system ui it does not do that in the earlier method (but the earlier method can only be done with aosp I have tried and its always an endless bootloop of installing apps starting updating contacts and reboot to do it all over) as long as the screen does not sleep and the WiFi isn't messed with the ROM is stable on the d710 installed supersu zip to root installed all my root apps messed around full root flashed d710 kernel reboot wipe restore and back to d710 both methods worked for me installing with the i9100 caused more problems than just changing stuff but it works both ways I have been successfully other ways as well thething is the WiFi does not work the buttons are not mapped I mean there is no hard home key on d710 so it dont work the search key is the settings key and the back key is the back key the home key does Nada and the menu key does Nada the Bluetooth works the mobile data and calling do not but everything else I have tested on it does what can I do to fix this being that it works very well on the d710 looks amazing setting the DPI lower makes it look even more elegant its an obsolete phone I know but it still got a whole lot of life in it thanks to everyone at xda not my first phone not my only phone I'm a self learned guy and that was only possible with xda I went from what the hell is rooting? To this I am not trying to offend anyone with my chopping up of their ROMs to make them work they are the bosses I just want to be able to use those ROMs on my device and they function great dev phone its almost indestructible jig Odin stock or jig Odin custom I have been successful in flashing either through Odin installing through the phone popping battery out when done jig Odin aosp kernel reboot recovery update super and booted if anyone else have an interest in seeing lollipop on this phone it can be done
