Flashed the dead horse kernel then BAM

I flashed the test 23 zip from eugine. After that every.thing was wiped from sd. Then I can't instal any apps because the tom memory shows o.ombs. Then I tried flashing a stock kernel and guess what? Still nothing is recognized and now I cant data reset my phone becajse all the wipes fail and cant aaccesse cwm anymore, I get an error with orange writing? Anyone know what the problem is? I have.bionix v installed.

ya...
eguene's test kernels ruined my phone as well. odin back to stock, start backing up your data(like i'm just starting to do ) and don't use his kernels anymore lol

My application storage also turned to 0 but after i odin to stock it works now. Did you load the .pit file?

They are all there in supercurio's thread. Take three seconds to find it instead of asking to be spoon fed. Additionally, the kernel is for TESTING purposes. If you don't even know how to Odin a kernel or find a tar format kernel then you shouldn't be flashing test kernels. Learn how to take care of yourself or don't flash test kernels.

Continuum stock rom image

Does a stock rom image for the continuum exist that can be flashed with Odin and not CWM? I dont think my phone is bricked cause I can get into the download and recovery screens. I just cant do anything from the recovery screen its stuck.
Im either gonna fix this or smash this phone to pieces. Any help would be appreciated.
Thanks

Lol, chill... I'll go on my computer now and share the link with you xP
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA Premium App

Ok so I might not smash it but boy is this frustrating.
Thanks for your help lol =)))

Ive done some extensive searching and I havent found a single stock continuum rom for odin anywhere. So if you could create one or point me in the direction of where I could download one I would appreciate that.

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=967165
Check that out.... Flash with Odin.. Then find (in the Continuum Android Development section) the DL17 update zip, and put that on your sdcard (named update.zip)...
Then you should be good to go...
However, i highly suggest you getting CWM working... Recovering is a lot easier with it... If you are having difficulty go log onto the IRC (http://webchat.freenode.net/) with the #Samsung-Continuum and i will help you out

You are my effin hero... All I needed was the kernel and it fired right up. Ill be keeping these files close cause Im sure Ill need them again.
Thank you!!!!
Justin

Lmao, no problem man.. haha.. Thank imnuts too for all of his development
BTW: If you stop by the IRC i will help you get cwm up and working.. Then you can flash themes, make backups, and flash my awesome Softkey Modifications

Any idea why I cant access data? Im on the phone with verizon but still no luck..
Also cant access the sd card from my pc and wifi on the phone will not connect..
Verizon is stumped they told me to take it back to the store for a replacement..
What a long day lol =)
Also voice service works I can make calls and send/receive text messages just no data. No 3g indicator.

Nevermind I got it figured out.. Everything is running normally with the DL17 clean rom.
Thanks again

I need to do a warranty replacement with my Vibrant but its running CM7

Ok so i know how to unroot a normal device but from what i understand CM7 changes the whole file system so I was wondering whether i can just unroot it the way I do normal roms or if i have to do something special in order to unroot since its CM7.
any help is GREATLY appreciated

Just Odin back to stock. Some people advise to check repartition ,but personally from experience it doesn't matter if you do or not.

Can the Sprint Samsung Epic 4g on gingerbread 2.3.6 be rooted?
Hello to anyone who knows about rooting. I work in medicne so I can figure out anything with the human body but not with rooting my Samsung epic on gingerbread 2.3.6. I have tried different developers, different sites, and read till I went crazy. The lingo gets old. It would be like me talking to the common public about the interpetation of hemodynamic readings and congestive heart failure. Anyhow, I rooted my epic 4g before it automatically upgraded to gingerbread...then it froze...I researched and unbricked it with a program everyone said did not work...but it worked to unbrick my phone even though it was supposed to root my phone...it just reset it to where it was usable again. When I try to go to certain websites for rooting files to download...they seem to be missing...hmmmm. So again, can the samsung epic 4g on gingerbread 2.3.6 be rooted? If it can, please direct me to some site...so far...I have tried about 5 different sites...no luck. It is also very hard to find anything specific on gingerbread 2.3.6 on rooting...alot of info. on the other versions.

there is a thread that tells you a 3 step method. if you wanna flash another rom then here is what I did. Download the rom you want and put on the sd card. download odin if you do not already have it. download cwm-5.0.2.7-epic4g.tar.md5. open odin uncheck every thing even reboot. then click pda put the cwm.tar into the pda. make sure your phone is in download mode. by holding the #1 button on the keyboard and the power button. plug the phone in to the usb. a yellow com box should pop up. hit start it shouldn't take long but it will complete and the phone will still be on. unplug your phone and take the battery out. put the battery back and turn on using the 3 finger method. ( vol. down, camera and power button) then wipe data, wipe cache, go into advance and wipe dalvik. press the back button click then click install zip from sdcard. click choose zip from sd card and then choose your rom and install that should be all. if you want to stay stock and just be rooted you need to download superuser.zip the link is found in the first video. you do the first part the same but instead of wiping every thing you go start into install zip and then choose the super user zip. reboot your system. then you have to go into the root explorer and delete a file but I cant remember the file name. but then you turn your phone off and then you have to odin cwm again. then you will be rooted. i will edit this when i can remember the file name unless some one beats me to the punch. i hope this helps if not pm me and i will try to help i am going to be flashing back to stock and re rooting to day so..

Thanks...I will try it again.

It's on what Samsung gave it, 2.1 Eclair, and it's slow as hell. Right now, it powers off following boot, not sure why, but I looked into Odin-ing, lots of dead links, and Windows 7 in Parallels doesn't detect it in Downloading....

I suggest reading the forum. There are some different themes, mods and tweaked roms for each build level. Some are complete other not so much so reading is essential so you don't brick your phone.
Here is a good place to start. the Odin file here downloads and is what I use. Some of the links are broken if they are ask and someone should be able to fix the link or get you the file directly. (I have folders dedicated to the two builds I have worked from either ec09 or eg04).
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1316769
and another in case you ever decide to take the leap to eg04, the program here is essential for changing softkeys.
