SGSII Roms? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Hi everyone. I am just curious, can we flash roms from SGSII development or do we have to only use E4GT roms?
Thanks,
Hard Harry

No don't flash any sgs2 rom's they have diff radios. It will sft brick and the only way to get out is Jtag or go to sprint and insurance claim.

Only ET4G ROM's.

Just stick to anything in this section and you'll be fine. GSII ROMs that are GSM based will hard brick, not soft brick your phone.

Thanks everyone for the timely response.

Wrong.. As a matter of fact some SGS2 roms will even bootup. Buuut no calls,text,data etcetc. But hey Bluetooth works on most though. LoL.
Sorry Skylla hadto correct ya. But you are correct about flashing only from this section.

You're very welcome.

Yeah definitely a no no. Heard of people accidentally doing this and totally bricked their device.

This is NOT intended to be an insult...
If you need to ask this, you shouldn't be rooting. Read through the stickies in dev and general then move forward.
If you mess up, getting back to working can be a true pain in the d*ck

Xlite rom killed my phone

I don't know why, but the xlite rom has killed my phone.
NO POWER WHATSOEVER.
I plugged it in to the wall and a I get a red LED for about a minute, and then it goes away.
This is my FIRST DAY w/ the GS3.

Why dont you tell me? Its obviously not the rom, a rom definitely wouldnt break your phone, or everyone who flashed it would be bricked like you are. So that only leaves one other thing that it could be and thats that you messed it up somehow

I watched the installation. It went thru the custom clockwork mod looking install, gave me a success, and said it would reboot. And now nothing.
HOW AM I NOT TO THINK THAT IT'S THE ROM?

Hey . I ma not a geek but i think you can charge thé phone or flash whit flashtool a official rom ! Can you get on tour phone fastboot ? If yes your phone have chance to wake up

I'll clue you in on the problem....xlite is a rom for the international galaxy siii and you are in a forum dedicated to the AT&T version. One would deduce that you flashed the wrong rom on your phone. My suggestion is to read, read, read before you flash anything else if you are able to unbrick your phone.

Dude, everyone else flashed it with no problem at all. If you had a problem, its YOUR fault. This is why devs have to put a disclaimer with there roms, cuz stupid people mess up there phones and blame it on the devs work. They arent the ones who did something wrong to your phone. They provide the ROM, they cant help it if you dont know how to use it

Keep it civil, name calling is inappropriate. You made mistake, it happens. Just pm a mod and have them move this thread to q&a, hopefully you can get your answer from more civil people...good luck.

I'm not sure how you installed it, but i don't think i've ever installed a custom ROM and it automatically rebooted...
Not to mention as someone else already stated, you seem to have flashed an International ROM on a USA S3....

Hows the battery life ?
Haven't had to charge the phone since I performed the mod. I think this mod writes to /mnt/sdcard/new folder...which in turn does absolutely nothing besides enable immortal battery tweak.
Will this trip my flash counter?
I hadn't thought of that until you mentioned it. I just checked and unfortunately it does trip the counter. Before the mod I was at 0, and now it reads over 9000, and no longer samsung official... If attempted make sure you grab a copy of Triangle Away.
This bricked my phone :silly:

[ROM]Wicked Sensations Port[DATA WORKING]

Look at the original thread by dazednconfused for features and stuff here
I seriously hope I didnt upload the wrong file...
I think I got it right
Any testers?
Also: I got permission a long time ago from most of team venum to port, so once this is fixed, I'm gonna port a LOT of roms by them...
What works:
data
calls
launcher
wifi
bluetooth
power menu
everything else except for some
What doesnt work:
Settings app
changelog:
10-26: fixed power menu

It's all good with me. Maybe somebody can help with the data issue. If you get it working let me know. Maybe add a huge thanks from me to Dustinb17 for sharing a lot of his blue Cobalt images with me to get the original rom put together. Nice job on what you have so far man.

International version has leaked 4.3, can we get it ported?

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2468042
DO NOT FLASH this rom as I do not know if it will go perfectly or catch your phone on fire. I take no responsibility for your actions.
With that said, here it is 4.3 for the N7100 and I was hoping that a developer would be able to port it. Judging from the discussion I have been reading Knox is included and causes some problems with root but you can disable Knox from your app manager. Anyone with porting experience care to weigh in?
