Root [ACS] [HOW TO] Root, Flash Roms/Kernels/Themes, CWM, and update! (48 videos) 6/27/11

Added to Epic 4G guide in main section!


As a reminder to all, anytime you think a thread is worthy of being in the guide, shoot a member of the staff a PM and let us know!
 
I am rooted using CW3 from EC05. I wanted to get familiar with Odin and take my phone back to stock EC05 (so that I know I can). I have Odin installed and have the .pit file (s1_odin_20100512.pit), but am having issue with the .tar file. I downloaded it (EC05_DXC.tar.rar), but there is no option to extract it to get the tar.md5 file.

From what I gather from the video and the links, I can go back to stock EC05 and don't have to go to EB13 or DI18? Anyway, any help on the the .tar file issue would be great.

**Sorry, tried 7zip and worked fine
 
Short video on how to follow the path to delete/reset battery.bin ?
 
My boss's friend had me root his EPIC when he bought it months ago. It's been nagging him to update OTA and he wants the newest update + root. Your guides are perfect! Thanks!

I am used to flashing and modding my EVO, but when it comes to the EPIC I'm a noob.
 
ok so i finally took the plunge and rooted and i gotta say i love it and i wouldnt have been able to without these videos... so thank you. so that being said im rooted now with syndicaterom frozen and nothing is actually wrong but i cant install the program monitor. i used root explorer to find the apk for it and clicked it when asked to install i hit yes. it didnt give me any error message or anything just said application not installed. any ideas? (also sorry if this is posted in the wrong place)

I was actually going to make a video soon to show you how to do this! You need to copy the apk and then go to the system folder in root explorer, then go to the app folder inside the system folder and paste it in there... You're good to go! Glad you liked them!
 
New video everyone! Let me know what you think!

Also, thank you EVERYONE for your support, I have gotten so much feedback it's crazy and I really appreciate it. Keep the suggestions coming!
 
Wow. Just wow. For those of us "kinda savvy" but hesitant to actually taking the plunge, this is the bomb. Seeing is believing and these videos are really well done to show just how easy this can be done. Thanks!!
