Default [Q] I don't think it's bricked; you tell me...

Performed rooted ROM steps [epictouch4groot.com], everything worked fine except WiFi. So of course, had to keep going.

Rolled back to stock ROM, still the same: Everything worked but WiFi.

Kept tinkering: Calkulin wipe, then Starburst...Now hangs at Boot Screen (displays 'Samsung GALAXY SII' for infinity.) I've wiped data/cache, wiped Dalvik, (several times). I can still push ROMs via SDCard and Odin (stock rom, back to Starburst, and even one with CWM5) but with same result.

What's next?

Thanks anyone for your help.

If WiFi doesn't work even after an odin reset, it might be a hardware issue. :/ best bet is to odin back to stock EG30 and take it to sprint.

Actually hang on, did you odin EVERYTHING (modem, kernel, rom) back to stock or just the rom? And is it no wifi or stuck on bootscreen after the odin?

and, check your router at home, to make sure thats not the problem...unless of course your wifi doesn't work anywhere else too.

That's exactly what mine was doing as well (quick scan, then shuts off), but now it will not boot at all. So original problem was no wifi; now it will not boot at all (but I can still flash it via Odin or Recovery Mode.)

When you ask, "did you odin EVERYTHING (modem, kernel, rom) back to stock or just the rom?"

Not sure, I guess just the kernel. I've been flashing only this file to get it to stock: acs-eb30-stock-kernel-pulled.tar What else would I need to do to completely re-stock it?

Thanks for the help all.

Got it fixed. Performed a FULL stock wipe via odin. Phone is back to pre-sprint update, but wifi is working.

Edit: To perform the full stock wipe, go here: forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1383678
