I recently upgraded to 2.3.5 and would like to root my phone to remove crap apps. Is there a simple, one click method to make this happen?

Nope. One clicks don't work on 2.3.5. You need to use Odin to install CWM 5.027, then pull the battery before it boots, power up into CWM first then flash a custom GB ROM.

Why not just have him install the gb3.tar kernel instead of "pull the battery before it boots" much easy and less fearfull.

Does that have clockwork in it too? Usually I say uncheck reboot in Odin but then you still gotta pull the battery and pop it back in then boot to CWM. Didn't mean to be scary..lol!

No but it qbkings tutorial he says to flash the kernel first.... then flash Cwm just saying it would be less chance of error. Something in the stock kernel has a script that searches for cwm and causes it to delet after the first boot anyways.....

Exactly! And no worries about it overwriting recovery as long as you flash a custom gb rom (there is a mostly stock one if trying to stay stock) as the kernel will be included with the rom... don't let biggorn scare you... its not scary to pull the battery after odin ;-)

The Odin kernel trick worked like a charm. Thanks so much for the help, my Epic is now rooted and has superuser access. The primary intent of this project was to remove all of the crap-ware and now that that is accomplished I have to ask...now what? What other things should I look at to make it faster and better?
Thanks again.

Flashing a custom rom.... and a custom kernel.
Suggestions: legendary 2.2 and the samurai or shadow kernel
MarcusantRom revival v2..... just go through the android development forums to see which rom you'd like to use. Just be careful what your trying to download thought. If your Rom is BML or MTD then you have to download that type of kernel.

U don't even have to pull out the battery is instantly boots up into cwm that's what happened to me when I got my replacement that was already on ei22 I just connected to odin and flashed the latest cwm and had a rom already on my sd card so I just flashed the rom when it opened cwm for me
Its very easy and no worries and if it doesn't open cwm its not like your phone will brick or anything u just need to try again. To flash a kernel would be easy too

qbking77 has a 2 part video on it that is very step by step. just follow it and you will be fine. from what i remember just 1 extra fie to odin and you need a file on your sdcard. it was pretty gravy. have fun and mistakes are a short odin back to the beginning
edit.
haha forgot there was a second page..... use remember you can go from bml to bml, or bml to mtd, mtd to mtd type roms. YOU CAN NOT JUST FLASH FROM MTD TO BML!!! you must odin back to ec05 and make sure repartition is checked and use the victory pit. happy playing
just remember though... after reading the information on these forums, and you are still unsure or whatever... ask questions, ask questions , ask questions...
Well everything is running great but now Sprint is trying to upgrade my firmware to EL30. Will this do away with my new found rooting and can it be re-rooted if it does?

It will fail to update since your rooted you have to go completely stock to upgrade and once upgraded its the same root process with the exception of using a different kernel.

Not sure why but the .tar file is followed by a .md5 extention, so I just removed it and it became a .tar, just for others to know, thanks
the md5 extension is so you know it hasnt been messed with, and so you know the download is not corrupt...
odin flashes md5s and checks the downloads...
What would be the benefit of flashing this versus your other similar kernel? Sorry if this is a stupid question....
Thank you so much. This is perfect. Do have a question. Does this have a new version of cwm or the same one from yesterday? I ask cause the back soft button wasn't working and the storage mounts were reversed. Just checking to see if that has been fixed.

It is the same just without root and busybox. He made it for those of us that prefer having root controlled at the system level versus the kernel. You don't lose anything either way. If you use this you have to make sure you are running an already rooted rom. There is less conflict by doing this since most, if not all, roms are already rooted.

Once again thanks for you help. One last stupid question before I retire from stupidity, but how do I know which way I am rooted? I thought the only way to root was FROM the kernel. I ask because I'm specifically on midnight rom v2 and have no clue which way I'm rooted.
Is there any way someone could upload a mirror to a different site? I'm wanting to flash this but I'm at work and my company is blocking the site that the link is for. If you can that would be awesome if not, no big deal. I'll try and get it when I get home.
Edit: Nevermind. Managed to get it from my phone.
I can up it to megaupload if that helps Tiffany.

Just curious, if someone has flashed chris' previous kernel, what benefit is there supposed to be? Is it not the same stock kernel with some tweaks? Especially if you're concerned with losing root. Not singling anyone out, just curious as to the rationale.

Because kernels that have forced copying of root & busybox cause issues when you start using complete custom ROMs because they overwrite files that are already included. Plus if your including a custom recovery, what the point of including root, etc when the user can now flash what they want?
Also, Chris, the recovery you have included in this won't mount the internal storage or even make a backup to it or recover, it only wants to use the external sd card and since I don't use one because of the delay it causes coming from sleep, I can't do anything except test flash stuff
I flashed this around noon and once my phone rebooted, I updated my 'profile' under 'about phone'. Everything seemed fine, an hour later...I had a LOS, rebooted and got it back, an hour later, same thing...LOS. Rebooted and I updated the profile again, it's fine for now.
Do we have to update profile every time we do a reboot??
Didn't have any issues when in stock.
Searched and searched. Bought a used in great shape epic for my son for christmas and I wanted to set it up on cleanGB like I have mine and the wifes set up (very stable an fast). I odined it back to stocj ec05 and when it prompted to update it failed. So I tried the update.zip for ei22 thru recovery and it also failed. I've seen a thread here for the same problem but I couldn't find the thread. If some one could point me in the rite direction to get it to ei22 I would greatly appreciate it.
I have everything saved on my pc to root and apply all the fixes (gps,keyboard) and to root I just need to get the phone to that point first.
Thanks

You could odin in the recovery (ACS or CWM) while on EC05, then flash the EC05 to EI22 Modem zip file (somewhere in thee dev forum), then flash CleanGB.
Edit: I am pretty sure that the only reason you want the OTA update is to get the EI22 modem.

Mine won't update from EC05 either. I have to go back to DG27 which I got from the wiki thread.

did it update rite to EI22 that why or did it go thru the other updates first?
Forgive me for this question but why would you even want to wait on the OTA update if you are just going to flash an EI22 ROM over it? With EC05 (and backwards) you could even do the 1-click root method and not even mess with Odin.
Am I missing something with the OTA update? Is there concern with the EC05toEI22.zip? I used it to get to the EI22 modem and it was quick and painless.

So you were able to get to EC05? If so, flash CWM recovery from Odin and try the 3 finger boot. Or actually, it doesnt matter if you got EC05 loaded or not, just Odin CWM and boot into recovery and flash CleanGB from there.

I'm on stock EL29. I want cwm so I can have a nandroid of this stock rooted rom for easy downgrade and going back to stock. Through about an hour of reading and having about 20 tabs open, I have narrowed the options and methods and this's or that's and whatnot to number 3 from here http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1474023 Can someone please correct me if I'm wrong.
I have tried to flash CWM through RM. Says successful, but when I boot to recovery, it goes to Andy and the triangle. When I use vol up + power to go to recovery, it takes me to stock 3e.
This phone is on EL29, straight from the box, with root.
Thanks for any response guys.

Reboots usually about 10+ times a day. During calls etc. Any way to remedy this?
Note: it doesn't restart from the very beginning it freezes, goes black then boots up the lock screen all media connects are restarted etc.
From the limited amount of research I've done the zedomax method for rooted is no longer used? (Currently I get the yellow exclamation point at reboot).
What do I need to do (in lame mans terms) to get my phone back to normal?
TIA!
Easiest way is to one click Odin. I'm not sure which your on. I'm assuming GB. So you can one click Odin to stock el29+ root. Or if you want one click Odin to FF18 or FH13 to upgrade to ICS. And if your on ICS you can use triangle away to get rid of yellow triangle on the splash screen.

Using ZedoMax kernel is your problem from the get go. Even Zedomax would have a good laugh at that. Its an OLD OLD kernel.
EG30 and EK02 can be rooted via usb with the zerg exploit and sfhubs auto root made that easy. Easiest way with EL29 or the newer ICS firmwares as well is just to flash a prerooted one click. But you can always odin a kernel with custom recovery and flash super user.

Use Heimdall to flash tars then. Grab the one for FH13 if you want the latest official ICS or EL29 if you want the last GB out. Sfhubs one click threads have a second post with the tars as for FH13 dunno how Garwynn and rwilco have their stuff arranged.

You have CWM recovery right?
If so copy Calks rom onto your phone, if you don't still have it there.
Download the EL29 zip file to your phone from http://rwilco12.androidfilehost.com...y Kernels/GB/Rogue Recovery/Stock Repacks/ZIP.
Instll that zip from recovery and reboot back into recovery.

Thanks again!

No problem. I am partial to the Sprint hotspot hack myself. In the dev section by rejulus22.

Bump.
Different issue:
1. I keep getting a FI27 Software Update reminder. I am able to clear it out of my notifications but 5-10 mins it's back again. It will interrupt whatever it is I am doing at the moment.
2. Is there a separate current radio I can download? My gps can never find my current location, rendering the turn by turn feature useless since I can't use it.
Any thoughts?
TIA

The link given earlier to download the modems contains the FI27 modem. You could flash that and it may get rid of the update reminder.

Use titanium backup freeze system updates. Then go to recovery and wipe cache and dalvik.

What this guy said. Didn't think about that.
Ok I know i am supposed to read the Faqs and tutorials. But after wading through pages of content I have come out more confused than going in.
Basically all I want to do is get a new ROM (Cyanogenmod?) onto my phone in order to fix my stock ICS's broken bluetooth functionality, battery drain and overall performance. I loved this phone as GB but it has become the worst pile of stinky poo since ICS came along. My baseband ver is Fl24.
Now I have no clue where to begin. What's an Odin count? Kernels, modems?
Any help will be greatly appreciated.
If you don't want to read then go watch some of qbking77 videos

**Not responsible for anything that happens to your device.
You're on stock unrooted right? First go to the android development for this phone go to the modems thread and find the one click FL24 rooted. Next make sure you have drivers installed on your computer and put your phone into download mode(While the phone is off power+volume down until you see the screen) and connect it to your computer. After that extract the one click and connect your phone which is now in download mode. Let it run and its should say success.
Ok now your rooted now to flashing the ROM.
Download mobile Odin from the play store(it costs but theres a free version on xda somewhere just Google it) Get the paid version if you woukd like to donate because of all of his hard work. Next download the el26 kernel(the repack with clockwork mod) and put it on the root of your SD. Finally download the version of cm9 you want and put it onto the root of your SD card.
Installing the ROM(You're almost done )
Open mobile Odin and when it asks you for the xda download just hit cancel. Now hit kernel and select the el26 kernal. Make sure you have 50% battery do all the safety precautions and then flash it. Take the battery out of your phone. Reboot to recovery(power and volume up) press volume up and volume down back to back a couple of times to make the power button work. Now wipe data, cache, and dalvick cache. Finally flash the ROM and reeboot.

I think there is also a one-click el26 with CWM floating around in the Android Development section. I've used it with success. YMMV.
Thanks for the walkthrough!
Those qbking77 videos helped alot. After 2 hours of research I have finally managed to get Wild for the Night onto my phone. Only difference is, I used the EL29 Directboot kernel. Not sure if I used the correct ver but hey it worked.

Regarding the EL29 Directboot kernel...is this the only way to flash for the TW ROMs that don't have custom recovery then reinstall the original kernel (GB08 in my case)?

Yep. You can also use an Agats Repack for JB to flash the kernel.
