Do you want to run a custom EC05 ROM?
I have read that people have used the OneClickRoot with EC05 and it worked fine.
If you want to run a custom rom; I would use Odin to put the EB13 Extended on your phone (it has CWM and Root and EXT4 set to go).
Then apply one of the awesome EC05 ROMS; you can run wiFi tether using them.
I also wanted to upgrade but was worried about having the ability to upgrade custom roms. When you do the update to 2.2... you hae to reroot, I'm runnin ec05 and havet had a singal problem yet. Flashed syndicate frozen and love it.
Wired tether doesn't work but that's lame anyways. Just plug usb cable in, and hit charging.
Wifi tether works great. EVEN with 4g!!
The guys that put this rom together are awesome.
Definatly worth trying. Recap....
Download, if you haven't already, the drivers for samsung onto your 'pooter and install.
Download cwm3 and install. So easy to do. Just read the frum in development section.
Download rom...

im ready to root this thing.... someone said there is a root method is this true?
If you already have root, or rooted before flashing that, then it will run. The only problem I had with flashing the new froyo is that there was no way to do wireless tether, nothing would run.

Alright guys, a few more rookie questions from this kid and I'll stop bothering the piss out of you
First off, I've recently rooted, and I have a few questions. I'm running a stock rom, and I rooted using the one click root but other than that, I haven't done anything major to my phone because I'm sort of lost in the process on a few things.
So, number one, I keep reading about the new update, I think it was DI18 or something to that effect? What I'm curious to know is, am I going to get these updates OTA with root, and, if so, will it remove root or am I fine as long as I have a stock rom? I just need to know if I need to avoid updating the phone OTA or not worry about it.
Also, I wanted to know how to get a netfiltered enabled kernel. i've been trying to use Wireless-Tether and I don't get any errors, just no UL or DL numbers and it doesn't do anything to my computer.
I posted a few threads ago that I am completely new to Android and such and have been running WinMo for the last 4 or 5 years. I'm trying to get used to all of this and after running with my HTC Raphael for the last year and a half I'm finally upgrading and this is a whole new world.
Any and all help would be greatly appreciated, and thanks to everyone in the community! I really appreciate all of it. Oh, and for the record, I've looked around for a few hours on the net trying to figure out these things but I can't seem to find any answers. It seems like all of this is common knowledge for everyone else, but I've been running with Android for less than 2 weeks now. Thanks all.
Dig Life!

I seem to be having the same problem you are with wireless tethering. So if you figure out a fix please let me know.
We don't need a special kernel for wireless tether. Wirelss tether for android pre15 works fine for me. Ota updates will remove root, but so far it seems our same root method is fine with 2.2.1 updates (dk28) .

Isn't it true though that some custom kernels don't support tethering? For example, I run Andromeda DI18 and when I try to tether it says its not supported by my kernel.
Well, not sure. The only ones I have run are mix up and fluff. Both worked for me.

Ok, following instructions on theunlockr.com, I rooted using superoneclick v1.9.1. No problem there, was pretty easy. I backed up everything with mybackup app from the market, and am looking to see what these custom roms are all about. From the same site they have instructions to load a custom rom on your android phone using ROM Manager from the market. While researching that app a bit, I've seen a few posts saying not to use that app on the Epic cause it doesn't always work right. Granted most of the posts I seen were a couple months old, so maybe the app updates since then fixed that. But, also in their instructions, they never said anything about having to do the modem, or partition from rfs to ext. The Viper Trinity rom I was going to flash says "EXT4-RFS DK28 Dual" so I assume it will work with either file system. I'm sot sure which I have. I do know I'm on Froyo EC05 curently. Could I just put the zip in my sd root and flash with rom manager or do I need to get that odin program and do the three button reboot and all that? Do I have to somehow get DK28 on my phone, will it work with EC05? Thanks for your patients. Any info is greatly appreciated.
Don't use a DK28 ROM.
You need to flash the Rom through Clockworkmod, but I don't recommend any DK28 Rom's they are EXTREMELY outdated (based on a Froyo leak from December). Go into the development section and download the newest One Click Root and use that to properly re-root your phone.

Lol...you bandit, I was just going to drop that link
Anyhow, all those videos are up to date.....watch'em!!!!
cool, thanks. I will watch that. Are there any roms you might recommend? I just seen viper quite a bit, also cyanogen seems to get mentioned a lot. Obviously performance is the main concern. Battery life, over clocked, tether, no bloat, etc. But something with nice features too. Curb appeal I guess you could say.
No as far as re-rooting, should I un-root with the program I used to root, or will the rooter you linked me to just overwrite/re-root what was already done?
Click the link in my signature.
The other popular choices are Bonsai (can't link, easy to find), midNIGHT (dev section), and Viper EB13 (dev section).
Op: paragraphs are your friend...

Also don't use ROM manager, it does not play well with the Epic.
Awesome! Thank you for the link to the videos. Everything worked with no problems at all.
Tried Midnight, and now currently running Syndicate Fully Loaded. I had flashed the Emotionless Beast theme over Midnight, and will probably put it over Syndicate today. Pretty nice theme. Viper looks pretty sweet but I guess its not ec05 ready yet, and in the video he said Cyanogen isn't quite done yet.
I watched the vid about flashing the Vision kernel and overclocking it. Would that be better than the Twilight kernel that Syndicate comes with?
Midnight is the most stable tom right now... when acs out our their bnext version, that'll be the best rom. By stable I mean tom working without a lot of reflashing an random freezes

I was runnings myms 2.2 with clockworkmod and I went back to stock by downloading the stock rom and when I go to update it says no updates available.
I'm wondering if maybe I didn't install a new stock rom or something is wrong.
You can just get a rooted version of the update from this site if you do the ota you will lose root.

When I heard it was out, I flashed back to the stock rom, and checked for it, but it said my system was up to date. After about a day, though, it asked me if I wanted to update to the new version. Which unfortunately wouldn't install for me. Which is fine, I like CM7 better than sense anyways.
If you haven't seen it yet, just wait a bit, it'll probably show up.

Please find a way to accept the ota! That way I can laugh at you when you are no longer able to root your phone. Why do people feel the need to unroot for an ota????

Don't take this the wrong way but I don't care about modding or hacking, stock android is just fine to me. I never tethered nor have I used anything that is a benefit of rooting. I just want a phone to be a phone.
It's not that serious to me, I kinda have other things a bit more important than changing roms and so forth.
Stock Android is perfectly fine to me.
geez, your making this harder than it has to be. you are already rooted. just download the rooted rom and be done with it. you will still be running a stock rom even though your rooted. if you do absolutely nothing with root u can still download and install the rooted stock rom and use it

Then just download and flash the rooted stock rom by xHausx. Done.
It has all the stock apps and stuff. No mods or themes. No one said you need to.do all that stuff if you root. Rooting just gives you the option to do so.
I wanted to root just to get rid of some sprint apps. Then I switched my rom but no other hacking for me.
Evo HW 003
MIUI 1.5.20 with Tiamat 4.0.3 sbc
Cut Corners theme

When Google releases ice cream sandwich and htc doesn't update the EVO you will wish you were rooted.

odin eh03 gb then root it. no need for ed05 or ota update...follow section 4 then section 5 of my guide.
is there anything good about the update??? what was new with it??? minus messing up rooting??
Stock eh03 gingerbread is alot faster than stock ed05 Froyo imo...cant comment on anything else because I have not ran stock eh03 longer than 20min, that was just to see If I could flash cm7 from it.
ok thank you
I used odin to root my phone after verizons update.
Just Odin the stock EH03 package and then flash SuperClean v3.05 in cwm and you'll have all the rooted, deodexed, debinged and debloated Gingerbread glory that you can stand! It has caused me to fall in love with my Fascinate all over again!
Can someone please tell me where to download the ROM's other than Multiupload.
Download time there for me says it is over 3 hours.
Looks like I got the OTA during the night and my Fascinate is stuck in recovery now.
Since I am hosed anyway I want to finally make the jump and start flashing some ROM's.
If I can ever get a download link that works
Thanks,

Look in the development section. Here is a link to Superclean to get you started.
Also multi upload is just a list of links where to download.
