DISCLAIMER:
The whole point of putting out Heimdall packages is to make flashing safer, faster and easier but please use some common sense and read before you wildly click on stuff. No one listed in this OP nor myself, God, Satan or any other being (Supreme deity or not) is responsible for what you do with these files. If you brick something, you did it, so man up and own your mistakes (and hopefully learn from them).
Epic Heimdall Packages:
The title should be self explanatory. Use these with Heimdall to flash your Epic back to stock or to flash CWM recovery. Do NOT re-partition unless you have an absolute good reason to (Like coming back from MTD and you know EXACTLY what you are doing). 99% of the time you will NOT need to re-partition.
Thanks to:
Nubecoder for putting these packages together
Drockstar and Rodderik for putting the purple CWM 3.1.0.1 together
Rodderik for hosting the devphone.org (Primary site and file mirror)
All I did was xfer some files and host the unlimited download server (files.devphone.org).

Now everyone can stop using Odin!!!
NOTE:: The EI22 package does not include the ei22 modem.
Also, there are no bootloaders in these packages, so I do not think you should ever re-partition with these.

I never could get heimdal to recognize the epic when plugged into my imac although I haven't tried with lion. Supposedly this there was a secondary boot loader bug that got fixed on most galaxy s variants with froyo but we epic owners never got it. Works great on my PC though.

So I'm running the deodexed "mostly stock" rom, and need to bring phone in for repair. Sorry, but I can't find a ton of info on Heimdall, and I just want to get stock rom and bootloader back on there before I get it fixed and get a new phone next month.

The bootloaders are not contained in these packages.
I doubt your bootloaders have been changed though, to my understanding they haven't changed in a while (or ever).
The only other thing would be the modem...
I need to add the EC05 modem to the EI22 package, so it is a nice and easy to flash the delta update zip in cwm to get updated.

Thank you for this. I finally got around to un-rooting / returning my wife's phone to stock. Now I can take it into the Sprint store. This should be the default method to return rooted phone to stock in the wiki, as it is quite easy if you follow the Heimdall instructions.
Can this be used to go back to BML from MTD instead of Odin? I'm guessing not since we can't repartition but wanted to make sure.

So after a bit of work I was able to decrypt the encrypted file from the fus.samsungmobile.com site. The result? The stock zip able to be flashed to your device to put it on UVKD1.
Mostly I did this because of people who may have problems with Kies Mini to update to UVKD1 (like I did, took forever to get drivers etc and kies to behave).
Again this is completely stock! Nothing done to it. I did use Kies Mini to apply this update automatically, but again it's the unencrypted zip that gets flashed to your phone.
As always, I'm not responsible for bricking your device etc. etc.
I imagine this can be used via ODIN to update your device, but again I haven't gone through this process.
As I have not tested this method personally, I cannot guarantee anything. Just wanted to provide the STOCK Zip without the encryption on it.
Anyone more knowledgeable about this please feel free to interject.

only thing I noticed was that the pattern lockscreen now has the emergency button at the bottom centered below the pattern. It's fairly smooth, seems like mostly bug fixes based on the release notes.
I'd really be curious to find out what the OTA url is for this, but not sure anyone here is going to get the OTA, cause we're probably all rooted or that and KC1 won't.
However, if anyone does wanna logcat and then get the OTA eventually that would be cool.

I see Kaik541 has a thread in Dev section for an ODIN version of KF1
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=14782572&postcount=1
This is for those who want to flash and root from using the tar files.
I personally always remove my external memory and sim card before using odin. It is not needed as people will obviously post and neither is doing master clear. I do these steps just to make sure I eliminate any possible issues that can occur during flashing.
1) Download Firmware from http://www.samfirmware.com/WEBPROTECT-samsungusa.htm
2) Flash back to stock JF6 w/ odin one-click and did a master clear.
3) Flash Gingerbread KF1 using Odin (see image attached)
4) Flash fugu kernel http://forum.xda-developers.com/show....php?t=1010141 (I attached the zImage-root.tar to post if link does not work)
In the first post look for and select the download link in step 2: (credit to nikademus)
How to use:
1: Flash the stock rom
2: Download the image for Heimdall or for Odin
3: Flash it with either Odin or Heimdall
4: Boot once, it will install root and crash/shutdown (it is preferred to let the phone connected to usb so it does not loop boot)
5: Reflash the original kernel
5) Flash stock kernel (attached kernelKF1.7z) credit to lownox for helping me on that
6) Settings>Applications> enable Unknown Sources (AT&T finally got something right)
7) Install busybox from market
8) ENJOY!

I think the intention behind this is great, but I do worry that including PST, Heimdall, and two different builds of Odin is going to lead to more confusion, not less, for new people. You'd be better off just including one build of Odin and Heimdall, I think.
I'm not sure why people even use PST, as it's just needlessly complicated.

Some people use PST and seem to get it to work better then Odin. I myself have never used it. The 2 version of Odin are for future and retro builds that some of the devs use.

I'm gessing you are trying to get back into "recovery" so hold down vol up + home key + power You will see samsung . Continue holding. It will come go away then come back. When you see samsung the second time. let go of all three buttons. It will finish by booting into recovery. From there use the kernel .zip file that you saved to your sdcard and flash. All set, you now have the kernel of your choosing.
Great idea. You should include the charge PIT file as well.
Alright, after taking a look at the vibrant forums, i noticed that they have CWM3 flashable modems, so it must be possible.
I extracted the tar file of an EC05 Modem and of course, all that's inside is the .bin file. I extracted a modem from the vibrant's 'old' cwm3 flashable files. I also found a batch operation that makes update zip files flashable via cwm3. with some guesswork and a little luck, I created two EC05 Modems, the first is my attempt, and the second is with a few extra files that i think are responsible for modems installing via cwm exclusively. Anyway, I'll keep you guys posted on my success. (hopefully not brick) If all goes well, I want to create CWM Flashables of all of our modems. wish me luck.
Edit: No dice with the ones I made.. Still looking for a way.
This would make it a lot easier to switch modems. Hopefully you can figure it out and not brick your phone! Thanks.
Greater men have tried, flashing modems us usually done with bmlwrite or redbend_ua. But they don't work for us...modem is always corrupted or something. But, if you get this working, I shall eat my words lol

What is your method? I've tried it all...if you can pm me cwm flashables are easy
sent from my miui-ified epic
The thoughts were to actually flash a modem you needed source. When EC05 first came out some ROMs would update your modem from DK28 or EB13. This why all the leaked ROMs had to be Odin'd. It would be awesome if you found a method that worked on the Epic for those who can't get their phone to connect on the computer.
I just want to say Good Luck, and we're all counting on you!

I found a cwm deodexed eg22 zip on my desktop. Its setup slightly different from Deca's deodex cwm or other cwm roms I've seen. Its very blunt and straightforward with eg22 modem bin in it. I thought if there was a way to eliminate factoryfs with the flash still going through, it'd be around 30mb cwm flash, however I do not kno what is dispensable in the files. I'm thinking dummy files or somehow omitting most of the flash except the modem?
You should be able to delete all but the modem and the flash script right? Did not know there was any ROM that successfully flashed a GB modem.

They wrote the software that applies the delta, as well as the software that generates the delta... It's their proprietary format, do they have all of the specs because they created them...

ok i see since it has been so long since all the rogers development started people dont really remember about all the rainbow problems and how they were fixed and how the fix needs source code.
we now have bootloaders available in leaks from samsung. they are needed with the stock kernels that come in the leaks to avoid rainbow garbage. i am providing the bootloaders to be flashed in heimdall without having to flash a whole rom.
i would like to make this explicitly clear that if this bricks your phone i am not to blame. there is a significant risk when flashing bootloaders! though the infuse seems to have safety measures i strongly recommend only flashing once. and if your phone becomes a brick you will need to solder things to the phone to fix it via j-tag or adam outlers unbrickable mod. be cautious! dont flash boot.bin without sbl.bin, dont flash sbl.bin without boot.bin, dont mix up the partitions, and if the phone bricks i dont want to know about it unless you want to pay me to fix it!
heimdall package

odin package (untested)
http://www.multiupload.com.... REMOVED May be failing to flash. very dangerous situation...
bootloaders for heimdall to be added through the "flash" tab (unzip first! ibl/pbl-boot.bin, sbl-sbl.bin)

good luck!
Thanks for posting this. Hopefully it will help out with leak questions that tend to get asked over and over again.

Yeah. Thanks for posting, Dani.
do you know if there its any difference in bootloaders amongst different gingerbread leaks?
I have been running the first leaked gingerbread's bootloaders since Prezkit gave them to us and have had zero issues. I think it was kk1? I've been taking an "if it ain't broke" stance. its going good!

there is difs. but I couldn't tell you what. I saw posts by Linux bozo who did binary diferencials but I don't see any difference.
I know the bootloaders have a counter for customer kernels. if you flash the parameters.ifs from the ultimate unbrick it resets it. I also know they changed the galaxy s 2 bootloaders so it was harder to reset the counter so don't expect to be able to reset it when the official update comes along. I also have been using the "if it ain't broke " theory and honestly don't remember which I am using. the packages here are uckk3. if people can test if the counter can still be reset by flashing param.ifs let me know. ill post older bootloaders if it can't otherwise I can't think of any reason to pick one over another.
If i am flashing the bootloaders via odin does the .tar file go in the pda slot. thank you for this.

yes. that's how I would do it. the PDA slot seems to be automatic as far as partition sorting. the phone slot is for modems but if a modem is included in a package for the PDA slot it flashes just fine. the bootloaders are in the PDA packages normally so that's how I would do it.
please report results because I don't run windows and did not test that package.
I will report back once i get around to flashing the bootloaders. Thanks again for this.

I've been using the UCKJ2 bootloaders since they came out with no issues.

don't select repartition, no need for a pit, the rom shouldn't matter, the file should go in the PDA slot. remember I haven't tested it in Odin. I don't run windows and have little interest in using Odin for anything. phone needs to be in download mode just like flahong a rom. it should only take a second or two to flash. good luck
Cool i should be able to figure this out. Thanks for the quick response.
It didn't work. I had auto restart, f.reset and the PDA slot checked after i opened the file in the PDA slot and after clicking start it just sat at setup for 45 min until i gave up and flashed back to stock. I had to pull the cord while in download mode and the screen turned black with green dots so i had to flash blindly. I tried it twice and the same thing. Has anyone else tried this?

I have a bunch of downloads but nobody reported anything at all till now.
ill pull the Odin version for now. try it in heimdall. its not any harder to use.
Can you post an odin package.
I had an Odin package. I got a few downloads, didn't get any people thanking for it, didn't get any positive feedback that it worked and had one user report problems, see the last couple posts. I pulled the file for lack of evidence that it worked. I don't run windows and prefer heimdall so I haven't tested it in Odin. sorry but I suggest you either flash an entire rom leak then flash a non secure kernel through Odin ( any custom kernel should do also flashing back to stock should also do just fine) and then flash a rom or learn heimdall which works on windows as well as Mac and Linux. I would have done a oneclick package but it still requires the installation of the heimdall back end and I figured it was really no harder to just use the heimdall package system.
any chance of relink thats not at multiupload?
edit: disregard, found a workaround. might be useful in future tho.
