Make sure you have all the flashable files you need on your SD Card before you install CWM3.

Deodexed Stock EB13 here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=963845

Genocide Kernel 0.2a (Childhood Poverty Edition) here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=961614

(You can instead use the Dual-FS kernel that Dameon posted elsewhere.)

If you use CWM3 to flash the deodexed ROM, you may end up stuck at the Samsung logo after it automatically reboots. This happened to me. I just yanked the battery, did a 3-finger salute, and then flashed Genocide (Oppressive Regime Edition) over the top of it.

No problems so far.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dnathan13:
The front page doesn't mention it, but it has been mentioned by me and others multiple times since then. Daemon will update the OP when he gets a chance, but he is currently working on other bigger items. The boot screen should have the android flashing with samsung, that is showing animations are possible. It sounds like you have a bad kernel, did you flash the dual kernel or the genocide kernel?
[Epic 4G Android Development] imwillzillla:
Doesn't matter what's been mentioned by you as we're to go by what the Original post says, not discussions during. The Original post put some of us in this situation where "Getting a deodexed version" doesn't help because it's stuck on the newer CWM and no matter what Kernel gets flashed it's still unstable. So we need something that can flash to fix the problem. There shouldn't be "Bigger items" When people are stuck on boot loop unstable hell because they did what HE told us to do.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Kikoshi:
you forgot to flash the Kernel thats compatible with EXT4

hm read your last post, then download the Deoexed zip file, and flash it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dnathan13:
I have nothing to do with making this and it says in the OP it is your choice so don't get mad. I am simply trying to be as helpful as possible. I am sorry you are in a bad situation, but there is always odin if that is your last resort. If your phone will boot it is possible to get into odin. check out the brick thread and you should be able to get back to stock eb13.
[Epic 4G Android Development] imwillzillla:
Dual Kernal and Genocide were flashed. Both give same results.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dnathan13:
you could always run the samsung exe if odin won't work, but if you get to download mode and have the drivers installed odin should work fine.

Do you mind listing the exact steps you followed so we can troubleshoot this some more?
[Epic 4G Android Development] imwillzillla:
Yes first let me apologize for getting snappy. I just been at this for a couple of hours now and I re read the posts in the previous pages to no avail. So I was getting frustrated because up until the last couple of posts. No one posted links to download anything particular. Either way I've tried so many different things i'm not sure if I could re do my steps. When in doubt just Odin I suppose. I just want to know the steps of what exactly to Odin, What to use to root, and then how to do this the correct way if it's not too much trouble.

Again my apologies I need to just remind myself that people are here to help and not to bicker. :)

IF "%ROOT%."=="." GOTO :Exploit
goto :[COLOR="Red"]Exploit[/COLOR]

Now I can't get past the Samsung logo loading screen.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
This is what worked for me:

1. Followed the thread below by Dameon87

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=963845

2. I used the EB13-stock-deodex.zip, not the EB13-stock-deodex-signed.zip

3. Then went to this thread by Dameon87 and followed his instructions

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=897612

4. MAKE sure to have the EB13-DUALFS-KERNEL.zip on your sd card before converting system to ext4. You will need it so that you don't get hung in the samsung screen

***This may not be the easiest way but it worked with no flaws for me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] imwillzillla:
Thank you I think i'm well on my way. I can easily understand frustration though. You have to first go to the Deodexed E13 page and complete that before coming back to this, but before that you have to go to Noobls CWM page and install that CWM before doing the Deodexed E13. So you start here, have to navigate and successfully install 2 different steps before even beginning here. And if you don't that's when the Samsung screen of doom hits lol. Oh and in between those steps you still have to download the Kernel. *bangs head on wall* Thanks again lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
I hope it works for you. I just followed both posts to a T by Dameon87 and all was good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
It is you....

flash a compatible kernel

deodex is not needed...

steps 2-5 are correct....

flash a compatible kernel

No...you can start right here........ see above....just run the bat for this and let it do its thing and then flash a compatible kernel...

Common problem I am seeing is people not flashing a compatible kernel after....
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
I was trying, but I couldn't get back into recovery after the one click rebooted...
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Did you get back to it....use the 3 finger method...
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
Or the 4 finger method which is easier.. cause you can do it why the phone is on,off or whatever. :p
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
Not for me I lost a finger doing the 4 finger method....muhahahahah....yea either way is fine....lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
Agreed. These are steps I followed:

1. odin DI18

2. root

3. flash EB13-stock-deodex.zip

4. downloaded EB13-DUALFS-KERNEL.zip to sd card

5. ran bat from Clockwork Mod version 3.0.0.5/6 -

6. flashed EB13-DUALFS-KERNEL.zip
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
Yeah - it completely froze me out. All I can get into is the download screen. No 3 finger, 4 finger, nothing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dnathan13:
I agree with the compatible kernel part, but Daemon already said he has seen that the odex version is causing some soft reboot problems so deodex is what he suggests. I believe he said this on page 25 or 26 I would find it, but i am at work.
[Epic 4G Android Development] dnathan13:
If you are totally blocked out start with odin at EB13 then follow the instructions you have seen on the last couple of pages. Deodex may not be required, but it has proven to be the least problematic... and don't forget the compatible kernel.
[Epic 4G Android Development] BeerChameleon:
sorry to hear that, :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
I can get both DI18 and EB13 on my phone. I can't root. This section is causing me issues. It skips the Exploit and goes to the Root section of the bat. But I just did an Odin to DI18. Both CWM versions do the same thing.

:CheckRoot
FOR /F "tokens=*" %%i in ('adb shell id ^| find "uid=0"') do SET ROOT=%%i
IF "%ROOT%."=="." GOTO :Exploit
goto :Root
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
Forcing 2.5.5 to run the exploit got me rooted on DI18. Applying the deodexed update now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JOLTnPEST:
Edit

(why cant we delete our own posts ) :(
[Epic 4G Android Development] || Acer ||:
Okay I have a couple of questions to ask before doing anything.

1. I can be on stock EB13 no root (yet) and do all of this, right?

2. 3. Now double click run.bat in the folder you unzipped. (If you are on linux ./run.sh from the folder)

4. Wait for everything to happen.

5. Use the THREE BUTTON METHOD to get to CWM3.

6. Flash the Default Stock Dual FS kernel For EB13: http://efragtv.com/android/EB13-DUALFS-KERNEL.zip

7. Enjoy CWM 3.0.0.5/6

Between 4-5, does the rooting reboot your phone, and you're expected to turn off the phone again and then do the three finger method?

3. Between 6-7, does it reboot the phone automatically or does it just reboot CWM, and then you're allowed to just reboot the phone.

4. You don't need to flash any ROM, right?

5. Anyone got a video? =P

P.S. I assume you don't have to wipe anything? (even cache and all)

Sorry for all the questions, but I usually end up bricking my phone a lot so I want to make sure I do everything right. A video would be pretty nice if that's possible for anyone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
Okay - I've got the Deodexed stock running with CWM 2.5.1.0. How do I get CWM 3.0.0.5/6 installed? I run the bat but it gives me the same messages as before and does nothing...
[Epic 4G Android Development] nubsors:
So I am not trying to insult anyone or start a flame war. All I was pointing out is that there is obviously steps missing from the instructions because I started out with a completely stock version of EB13, followed the instructions here exactly and my phone was essentially useless.

Now, if some of those additional instructions were found through out the thread, that is great, but the OP should update the instructions to include the new information, to prevent further confusion, right?

I think it's kind of unfair to expect a person to read through numerous pages of irrelevant information just on the off chance that you may come across information that could pertain to your exact situation. I find this to be especially true when the topic description says EB13, not EB13 Deodexed or some other variant of. Anyway, just my two cents, I solved my problem by using the Samsung flash utility and decided to refrain from rooting until a more comprehensive method is available.
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
try running the run bat again if it didn't work the first time. make sure that you have the kernel on the sd card before so that you can flash once you have cwm3
[Epic 4G Android Development] ptfdmedic:
Thanks Dameon got the redirector working....
[Epic 4G Android Development] Gorguts:
Anybody getting the weird flickering mini vertical android logo overtop the 4g and galaxy s boot screens?
[Epic 4G Android Development] TheBurgh:
yes. this is normal
[Epic 4G Android Development] flyers2114:
I agree.....my point was is that it works right from the instructions that Daemon posted.......a lot of people were not flashing the kernel....
[Epic 4G Android Development] jct522:
I got CWM 3.0.0.5 installed perfectly but when i went to flash the kernel that was included in the OP the phone went into a boot loop when i tried restarting it. So i odined back to DI18 and then flashed the update back to EB18. Now im back to converting everything back to EXT4 on CWM3. What are we supposed to do with this kernel that is just going in a boot loop?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dameon87:
If people bothered to read the OP, then they would see that flashing the kernel, along with the download has been there all along.
[Epic 4G Android Development] rikk0:
i got the boot loop also. going back to stock eb13
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
Still no love. I can force CWM to run by changing the bat file, but won't boot past Samsung logo or go back into recovery.
[Epic 4G Android Development] InfDaMarvel:
4. MAKE sure to have the EB13-DUALFS-KERNEL.zip on your sd card before converting system to ext4. You will need it so that you don't get hung in the samsung screen

I Might have not done this. Ignore me.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Sean Hicks:
Post Ext4 Restore?

I was wondering if its possible to do a advanded-data restore after a succesful transition to eb13+cwm3+ext4? NOTE-the data backup i mean to restore is ext4 from the current bonsia.

Thanks!

I can't think of any reason that won't work.

[Epic 4G Android Development] Sean Hicks:
Ok, thanks. After spending the day with odin and pathetic bandwidth...im not up for anymore question marks. Ha
[Epic 4G Android Development] spf2722:
I just flashed the stock EB .tar file in odin. Everyhthing installed fine after clicking run.bat, phone restarted, I shut it down, booted into CWM, it converted files but it was different than on DK28, it backed up and then restored. I flashed dual boot EB13 kernal, and am hung up on "S" loading screen with android flashing vertically. I have read all pages and don't see what I am missing. Back on stock now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Dameon87:
OP updated. If you cannot follow directions, then don't bother posting further in the thread please.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tonysohn:
Okay, just finished advanced restore - data, which was from Bonsai ROM. I haven't found any problem, yet. Just make sure you have both the Deodexed EB13 stock ROM + EXT4 Kernel (I used Genocide 0.2a) on your SD card before you begin the process. The Deodexed EB13 stock ROM, by the way, seems to only replace/remove the relevant system files. My custom-installed font was still there when I rebooted the phone.
[Epic 4G Android Development] bjhill2112:
Finally got it installed using a different computer...
[Epic 4G Android Development] hyken:
Hope I don't get flamed for this question!

In the following instruction, is the file (EB13) that some of us downloaded directly from Samsung the same as the OTA update?

8. IF YOU ARE ON AN ODEXED ROM (DEFAULT OTA) THEN YOU NEED TO REFLASH A ROM AFTER THE CONVERSION!!!!!!! ODEXED ROMS DO NOT GET RESTORED PROPERLY!

Hope this doesn't piss any advanced users off too much.

Thanks, Ken.
[Epic 4G Android Development] tonysohn:
I won't flame you for that question :D

Yes, the file downloaded from Samsung are "Odexed".

Sorry if this is the wrong place for this but. And it might be a little of topic. But I download the samsung update.zip. and then flashed cwm2.5. I recovered one of my backups that is a ext4 only. Everything is working fine and I think I am using the eb13's modem. Here what my info says

Firmware 2.2.1

Baseband ver. S:D700.0.5s.EB13

Kernel ver. 2.6.32.9

Build # frankenstein froyo 2.2.1 vd25xxx

Hardware d700.0.5

Hope this helps in someway. Lol. I should probably go to ext4 thou the quad scores are at 1100
[Epic 4G Android Development] Esteway.619:
I just want to make sure I'm doing this right I do the 1 click root cwm3 boot into recovery let it do its thing then flash the kernal. Then reboot? I don't have to flash a rom right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] TabascoJoe:
Why after the new flash am I seeing the Android splash screen? Will this be fixed in a new one click build. I ask because with the older versions rooting the phone just worked, why now do we need so many steps... Not really a "one click" anymore.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ryno502:
Just so I understand this correctly, I can use this with the stock EB13 rom, correct? I no longer need to flash a ROM like on DK28?
[Epic 4G Android Development] hyken:
This might be helpful to some of you NOOB's like me:

You must be running official EB13 for the following link.

You will also have to register to see link info.

Make sure you pay attention to step 1 in part two! You have to flash the deodex EB13 before proceeding with step two!

Good luck,

[Epic 4G Android Development] spf2722:
So I have flashed this a bunch of times and no success. I am on stock ROM EB13, installed one click, started clockwork, it backed up with no errors, I flashed a deodexed rom from sd card, and it restarted before I could flash the dual kernal. Screen vibrates three times repeadetly and stays on the "s" screen. I know Dameon was getting mad about people not following directions, but I don't see what I am missing.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smark72:
I need a little help. Is anyoneelse having problems with google maps? I cannot get it to open after running cwm3 ext4 one click root. It just keeps loading and when I go to exit out is says this application requires a working data connection and then force coses shortly after. I have a working data connction. I tried clearing data from the application an aslo tried clearing internal and sd cache. I am not sure what else to do. Everything else seems to be working fine. Any suggestions would be appreciated.
[Epic 4G Android Development] smark72:
I was having the same problem. This is what I did and it is now working.

1. Odin to stock eb13

2.root using one click 2.5.5

3.flash deodexed version right over the stock odexed version

4. Make sure you have dual kernel on sd card

5. Check usb debugging and connect phone to pc

6. Run one click cwm3/ext4

7 after it runs phone should reboot on its own

8. Power phone off and 3 finger to cwm3, phone will then back up and restore and come back to the main cwm screen

9. Flash dual kernel and reboot phone.

Hope the above works for you.

This really does work:

http://forum.androidcentral.com/epic-4g-rooting-roms-hacks/62079-root-samsung-epic-4g-official-froyo-eb13-w-optional-ext4.html

Start in EB13 from Sprint or Samsung

then root 2.55

then flash deodex EB13 from recovery(2.55) (3 finger from boot)

then root 3.06

then turn off, 3 finger into recovery...let it EXT4 for 4-6 minutes

then flash dualFS kernel BEFORE getting out of recovery.

then reboot

Done!

Worked 1st time for me after many other sequences.

***You have to flash the deodexed EB13 after rooting 2.55 but before 3.06***

Worked for me after several other sequences which were wrong. The confusion for me was the deodexed EB13 flash and when to do it.

This may help some and others will shake their heads, makes no difference to me. So long as it might help a few...that's cool.
