***I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE FOR ANYTHING THAT HAPPENS TO YOUR PHONE!!!****

Ok, thanks to some anonymous friends there is finally an full odin package for the samsung stratosphere (i405)

This is eh2...I have been told the current build running on phones is ei2, so......what does this mean?

It could mean that the stratosphere launched with eh2 and had a quick bug fix ota to ei2, or this was a testing build that was never released :shrugs:

If it was an mr1 ota, then in theory flashing this package, then going into manually push the ota in settings -> about phone should work fine.

having said that, I wouldn't recommend flashing this just for the heck of it...however if you hard brick you may not have another option.

(if anyone knows the answers to the eh2/ei2 situation id appreciate it)

package contains: kernel, stock recovery, bootloader, secondary bootloader, param, cache, dbdata, movinand, cdma radio, and lte radio

flash in odin, or remove the .md5 label from the file and open the package with 7zip and remove the individual components. You can then flash them with heimdall, or remove what files you dont want flashed.

did you get the phone at release or after?

im still seeing if i can get ei2, but at least u have some safety net now

[knightcrusader]

I got it on release day. I was waiting for this phone ever since I seen the first images leaked out back in June. :-)

Yeah, I wonder what eh2 is. I don't think we're ready for an mr yet so my best guess is about the same, pre-release.

If I only flash the stock recovery, will that wipe out the custom recovery? Since I've put it on, my phone's been $#!^. Daily bootloops get old really freaking fast, especially while getting laughed at by iPhone fans...

Here is a post that has a newer build. I would use this one before going back in time.

I was actually thinking the other way, just getting rid of the custom recovery. But you might be right, using the customized ROM might get things back on track.

i need to erase the current recovery and use the stock one can someone tell me how i can do this!
