Samsung Epic 4G Cookbook
Let me start off by saying I AM NOT TAKING CREDIT FOR CREATING THIS THREAD. BTHOMAS22X STARTED THIS THREAD AND MY INTENTIONS ARE TO KEEP THIS THREAD UPDATED. 03/20/2011 is the day I took this over so all the thanks comments in the post prior to this date are directed towards BThomas22x
I want to say thanks to theimpaler747 for giving me control of this thread and understanding the situation. We all know that BT has been deployed over to Japan to help in the relief efforts over there Lord knows they need it. On behalf of TeamViper we wish him a safe and healthy return. I wanted control of this thread because I would hate to see this thread go to waste. BThomas22x would not want this thread go to waste either. So I will do my best to update this thread as much as possible. So please direct all updates for releases to me via PM and not BThomas22x. Thank you. BThomas22x can have this thread back when he returns from Japan I have no problem with that. If he wants me to keep updating it I have no problem with keeping it updated for future reference for users. I'm all about helping, learning and teaching so that's my motivation behind everything I do on XDA.
The purpose behind this thread is to make it a one stop place for everyone to find what they need. If I miss something at first, I apologize, just leave me a PM and let me know what I missed, or leave a post in this thread and I will update it every so often. Unfortunately, I will not be able to keep up with this EVERY day, because I will be working on projects of my own, but I promise you that I will update it at least every couple days should there be new items to add.
This post will be a compilation of different ROMs, Kernels, Mods & Guides, Fixes and more. If there is something that is posted in this thread that does not work, please, let me know and I will remove it. This is not a "I have problems with this" thread. If you have an issue with something that is posted in this thread (i.e. something isn't working for you), contact the DEV of that particular modification as I will NOT be dealing with personal issues.
If you decide to do any of these modifications to your Samsung Epic 4G, you are choosing to do so at your own risk. I, nor any of the contributors to this post will be held responsible for anything you do to your phone. Unless your phone grows the ablity to print money, in which case, we are totally responsible for it, and you can kindly return all money to us lol.
IF YOU ARE A DEV, AND YOU HAVE UPDATES, PLEASE LEAVE ME A PM INCASE I DON'T SEE IT IN THE THREAD.
This post will have no particular order to the modifications, but they will be at least categorized for organization. If something is put into a category, and you believe it belongs in another category, let me know and I will update it accordingly. Without anything further...

I don't think that's the right answer either.
He isn't knocking your work... but having 10 excellent guides without the information all consolidated is worse than one good wiki.
I admit, things that try to be *this* comprehensive deserve to be in wiki form. You might make a really awesome, complete guide: but what happens the day you stop updating it? A wiki, on the other hand, would just turn into someone else's project.
By the way, Cyanogenmod is EB13 now.

You can also add MIUI

Perhaps not, but this is just an organized list, should people not update the wiki. Also, i never told anyone to stop using the wiki, so it'll be there as well should someone prefer that. Also, *IF* i did ever stop updating it, someone else would come along and do the same thing. That's the beauty of this, no one's feelings get hurt, cuz someone else can always do the same thing. I understand 100% what you mean about it, but at the same time, i find this a lot easier to understand than the wiki ....click a link and you're there. and it's more up to date. I saw the wiki, and saw that some of the ROM's that were still being represented, were being represented as past ROMS. Personally, i've seen my ROM on there as "ViperROM TRiNiTY 3.0.3" and i was already on build 4.0.2c... No one has to use this, and i encourage you to use the wiki if that's what you prefer. But also, thanks for the CMEB13 heads up.

[10-11-11][ROM] gingerbread-evo-deck [1.3][2.3.7 Stable] #Stablistic

Hey all. Been a while since my last release of s3vo for the evo which was sense based, but I really wanted to start learning android and have a better perspective of it. I decided to dig a bit more into compiling android. Started horsing around with github and learned to start compiling my own builds from aosp wih the help from cmsrc, evervolv, and a few others githubs. Since the release of gingerbread to aosp, i moved away from sense. There are things that i do miss about sense, but the usability of the phone without it is just unmatched imho. Many people use or have used cyanogenmod. IMHO is a great open source project that has some of the best devs out there. I have always been more into the 'vanilla' look opposed to the themed and aftermarket. Recently i have been compiling gingerbread for the evo and mt4g and have had nothing but the best reviews. Basically the reason why i am here. Wondering if there was any interest in a few of my builds. Main reason from moving away from CM6/7 (cyanogenmod), ADW launcher and the extra added bloat and themes. Currently as i look at my phone, my battery stats have me at 31 hours and counting with 15% left. So battery life as you can tell was one of my main concerns. Everything works!!!

Works perfectly for me. Running 1.2b with SZ kernel. The only minor issue so far is battery indicator. When charging, the light turns green at 90% (I am aware that is still charging =))

[KERNEL][SENSE][HTC STOCK] Stock Sense 2.3.3 Kernel

This is the stock kernel split out of the 4.24.651.1 STOCK release. Untouched, unmodified, unmolested
THIS KERNEL IS FOR STOCK HTC SENSE 2.3.3 GINGERBREAD ONLY. I am NOT a developer, just someone who wants to give back and knows how to split a BOOT.IMG to get the zImage out of it.
Note: Some custom kernels include 'extras' in their zips that may make going back to stock impossible. Always nandroid if you have an install you don't want to lose. Also, Don't forget to wipe cache/dalvik after flashing.
Download:
Stock kernel (unmodified) can now be found in the Kernel Manager app. Free/Paid versions on the Market. Wireless N version will not appear in the app as it isn't pure stock and thus not supported by anyone but yourself.
HTC KERNEL from 4.24.651.1 Release:
- 4.24.651.1 %100 STOCK (Kernel Manager mirror)
- 4.24.651.1 %100 STOCK (Mediafire mirror)
- 4.24.651.1 %100 STOCK (MultiUpload mirror)
HTC KERNEL + Wireless N from 4.24.651.1 Release:
- 4.24.651.1 %100 STOCK + Wireless N kernel module (Kernel Manager mirror)
- 4.24.651.1 %100 STOCK + Wireless N kernel module (Mediafire mirror)

Note: You probably won't need these. At least not until we get a source for custom kernels.
These are stock kernels ripped out of the 4.22.651.2 and 4.24.651.1 STOCK releases. There is nothing fancy here. Decided to make this thread to make it easier to find. I did make these zips myself, but I believe there are others out there already.
Needs testing, I don't have an EVO right now. Thus, I'm bored so I made these. Should flash in any recovery.

Thanks. I saw that earlier. I'll add notice to the original post.
thanks Op. nice to have this to go back while we test new custom kernels.
Thanks man. I actually need this now lol! btw are you the same guy that started github.com?
No problem. And no relation to github.com ... that would be cool, however.
While I'm at it:
Please direct any and all donations / thanks / lulz to TeamWin members. These guys (among others) do the real dev work around these parts.
Going to re-upload, seems that some recoveries are giving errors. I'm going to update the update binary and script, this should fix it. You will have to redownload later on. I've changed the filenames so you can tell.
edit: fixed zips done uploading, links updated. I apologize.

Clicking the links is taking me to a MediaFire error page.
EDIT: Hmmm must've had a cached version, because now the OP looks completely different, and I'm willing to bet the links work. I guess you were still working on updating when I posted. Sorry!
Yes indeed, I did a total rehaul of the OP, and uploaded new files that now flash fine (at least on my EVO).
Installed stock 4.24.651.1 ROM, flashed Lithid-CM's kernel, verified it was installed (had smartass governor and such). Rebooted, Flashed my stock kernel & wiped, rebooted and verified the stock kernel was installed from the Menu | About Phone | Software Information screen.
Should all be well now, sorry for any confusion
I have rooted stock 4.24.651.1, do I need to download the stock kernel? Also will this allow hdmwin to work?
You really had time to put in NO WIRELESS N FOR YOU! c'mon now! lol Nice.
When the last froyo release came out a lot of people were getting the best battery life out of the stock kernel. Immediately after the source was released there appeared a stock kernel with SBC patched into it, and then I believe another stock kernel with SBC and HDMwIn support.
If one of our amazing devs could do that with the latest stock gingerbread kernel (with wireless N support of course), we'd have a fully functional, stable, sort of safe alternative until they have the time to create their masterpiece custom kernels. I believe that would put many a smile on many a face. Just a thought...damn, I wish I knew how to do it.
Thank you for your time.
If someone creates a stock SBC kernel (with or without Wireless N) I'd be happy to add it here with their permission and with credit to them. I'm not a coder by a longshot, just a tinkerer, so I really can't help with that.
On another note, the stock (not Wireless N) kernel can now be found in the Kernel Manager app for easier flashing. I won't add the Wireless N one because I don't want to or have the time to support it. I really don't 'support' any of these kernels because that is HTC's job, but I am happy to help answer questions on them the best that I can. I also don't have access to an "N" access point.
Enjoy, and thanks for the comments.
P.S. and yea I added the "No Wireless N For you!" just as a reassurance that you had the correct zip.

I have no idea on HDMI. If it's part of what HTC offers, then that is what you get. If you have a ROM installed, you already have a kernel installed. A kernel is required to boot the phone, and thus is part of the stock ROM.
ok i switch kernels to Evo 4g Freedom-v0.8.5 Kernel and my phone wasn't able to recognize it was connected to the computer anymore... so I thought to fix this I would go to the latest stock kernel except this didn't work either... what should I do?

Its more devs didn't want to take out ciq from leaks cuz its so time consuming and then there's another leak 2 weeks later... it was don on ee03 it think.

Do a stock theme first (probably easier that way)
Just add the tweaks and mods first while keeping the regular look (w/ overscroll and off animation though) so then you can add the themed version later.
That way people will have the option to flash a slimmed down version of EH17 with the freedom of adding their own themes or tweaks to it.
Just a suggestion (I like stock, lol. Would be great to see a ROM that's stock but with mods and tweaks and no bloatware all in one ROM)
Please keep up the GREAT work!!!

Epic GB kernel sources! (11/22/11 EI22 keyfix kernel)

11/22/11 Update: Added "reboot bml8 recovery" patch for ROM Manager suppport.
11/8/11 Update: Updated keyfix kernel with the EI22 initramfs. Also, Samsung has placed the previous official (and now labeled EI22) source tarball on their opensource site.
10/24/11 Update: It appears that Samsung has removed the "official" Epic GB source tarball from their website. I've mirrored it for anyone interested in the original release. For anyone actually looking to build with the sources, you're probably better off using Rodderik's GitHub
10/19/11 Update: As everyone's found out by now, Samsung released official Epic GB sources last night. There's not that many changes to our device in the official source tree compared to the previous, but a few appear to be subtlely important (see abbreviated deltas). It still needs some work to get into a buildable state, but it does appear to work great on EH17!
I've updated most of my patches for GB, conveniently packaged together. I've also uploaded a new EH17 kernel that works on stock (rfs) EH17 ROMs and includes the keyboard fixes with optimized values, along with userdebug and kexec support. Feel free to give it a try.
Meanwhile Rodderik is updating his GitHub repo to include all these patches for folks to clone from, stay tuned.
Happy hacking!
So apparently when Samsung released the kernel sources to the Mesmerize's Gingerbread update a month-and-a-half ago, that source tree contained almost-buildable kernel sources for our device as well.
I've patched the sources (removed modemctl definition, added tfsr driver, compile right camera driver) to build for the Epic. I've also built a custom EH17 kernel combining these sources with the EH17 initramfs. It's essentially stock EH17 with ro.debugging=1, adbd always-spawning during recovery, and testkey signature verification. I'll get to porting over some other patches (like the dropped key fix) soon.
As for compatibility with EH17, the source tree itself appears to have been checked out on 8/30 and looks to include everything EH17 does. I ran "strings Image | sort -u" on both kernels to make sure there weren't any obvious strings/symbol differences between them. The ones that remain appear to be minor, but legitimate fixes.
Thanks to jt1134 & Rodderik for pointing out that the Mesmerize source released contained Epic code, and Tortel & ugothakd for testing.
GitHub repo, thanks Rodderik!
To build:
Grab SCH-I500_USCC_Opensource_Update3.zip SPH-D700_GB_Opensource.zip from opensource.samsung.com, extract.
Run "make mrproper" to get rid of atlas (Mesmerize) config junk.
Patch to complete Epic support.
Build with EH17 initramfs as usual, use victory_8G_defconfig for kernel configuration.
Mirror links:
Official GB sources: SPH-D700_GB_Opensource.zip (originally posted on opensource.samsung.com, since removed.)
Epic GB source patches: kernel-GB-3a-patches.tar.gz
Source-compiled, keyboard fix EI22 kernel: kernel-GB-3a.tar.md5
(URLs for Mesmerize tree patches removed, although they're still valid.)
Flashed this yesterday(11/13). Working good so far.

Ideally there would be one Samsung Android kernel source tree that would contain code for our device as well as all their others. However, I've been checking somewhat recently and code for Epic never appered in the GT-I9000 sources (which have been updated recently) nor in the Stratosphere ones.
It didn't occur to me to check the Mesmerize sources sooner, but as the only US device with an official GB release (still?) it shouldn't have been much of a surprise. It's also worth nothing that there appears to be GB sources for the Indulge in there as well. I'm not sure of their buildability though.
GREAT work mkasick.... everyone be SURE to thank him!
SWEET !!!
Exciting! Do the cm7 guys know about this, or is already used in the build we have?

I'm not sure, JT helped Decad3nce with CM 7 though and they both hacked the EH17 kernel to work for this. So hopefully it's something Decad3nce can use.
He said he was moving so he probably won't be back until tomorrow.

I believe JT was the one who discovered the Mesmerize sources were pertinent to us. He might've been able to compile something, but at least Rodderik was stuck on the missing tfsr driver without the right debugging bits.
I discovered this worked somewhat haphazardly when Rodderik mentioned the Mesmerize sources to me. They booted the first time with EH17 on SD, but wouldn't boot from flash. Since I was able to get it to boot off SD, debugging was a good deal easier.
In any event, it's a drop-in replacement for the current kernel used by the Epic CM7 build, so I'm sure they'll make good use of it sooner or later.
Actually what I'm curious about is if the reboot problems still persist with this. I haven't had one yet, but they haven't been a problem with stock EH17 on my device either.

[INFO][REF][TUE, 22/01/14] The G1 Oracle

The G1 Oracle​
Some of us decided to start a new thread like Royalknight6190's ROM Bible, because that hasn't been updated since Feb. 2011. However, as demkantor pointed out, the ROM Bible is pretty up to date up until Froyo, so there's not much point just reposting stuff. Therefore, although I have gone down as far as Eclair, I've only added new, relevant ROMs. Please PM me if I have missed out a ROM, this needs to be kept up-to-date
Credits: Don't know how we're gonna sort credits out, over the years there'll be tonnes of people we want to thank!

Oh no, really, doesn't matter at all, I'm trying to get a mod to give demkantor a post under the OP anyway, so we can move stuff around then.
On a general note to everyone, do people want versions of Android in ascending or descending order? i.e. ascending (from cupcake through to Jelly bean) or descending (from Jelly bean down to cupcake)?
I say newest first, as people probably want to see what's newest right away. Also the older stuff is all linked in the rom bible

What d'you mean by "older stuff"? Also, I'll thank you tomorrow because apparently I'm limited to 8 thanks per day.
Looks like I got some left!
the rom bible is realy complete up to early 2011 or so, since then most roms have been froyo and up, actualy the rom bible probably has everything ecliar and older so if we start with the latest people can have the all in one place for roms that have never been listed before. As we get time we can link it all!

OK, stickied this one. Need to get one of the admins to resolve an issue with the second post, copied the first post like normal to make a second one but for some reason the system is swapping them. Edit: Just read the rest of the thread and realized you ended up wanting a different arrangement there, sorry. OK, let me see if I can fix that up and put something by demkantor in the right place. Actually demkantor mentioned a cleanup as well there, so maybe consider what you want and then self report the thread and let us know.

Definitely!
It's hard to find the newest roms, not that there are many anymore. They tend to get buried by posts to old roms.
Maybe starting up that site again would be a good idea?
It'll be a lot more flexible than this :|
If you think so, we have two choices on how to do it:
1. phpbb (authorship will get awkward, since original devs arent around to post their roms)
2. html (will be the most flexible, but also most difficult )
and *sigh*
3. Me and my friend (a php coder) code a web platform for this specific purpose. This is by far the best way, but will take the most time and effort.
I see what you mean, this is proving difficult to make more widely editable. Also sorry for the gaps, I haven't had much time to work on this.
Hey thanks bro for mentioning me!
To clear up some info, the ezgb linaro kernel is built by me for cm9, and is just the ezgb 1.5.3 ics kernel built with linaro. I had further plans for it, but I've had very little free time recently.
The 1.5.3 kernel is built by me from anddisa's git without code changes. His code was just ezterrys latest kernel plus some patches needed on ics. I just compiled and posted.

Ahh thanks for info. The ezgb linaro doesn't boot for me by the way, so I always have to use the normal ezgb 1.5.3 for ICS, which works fine. 2078 radio.
