[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] employee:
I installed JDK and the Android SDK on this Windows XP 32bit system.

Copied the busybox, rage, root, su and Superuser.apk files into the platform-tools folder.

Connect the MT4G to the computer via USB.

The MT4G mounts as "G:\" on this Windows XP system.

Made sure USB debugging is enabled.

In the Command Prompt window:

C:\android-sdk\platform-tools> adb push su /sdcard/su

error: device not found

What did I do wrong?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Did you run "HTCDrivers.exe"? It's found on your SD card.

You should check out this this thread. It has an excellent write-up on setting up ADB as well as a much smaller installation file that makes the entire SDK unnecessary.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ditchmagnet:
Can you access the contents of the SD card in windows explorer? If so you need to right click the G: and "eject". Now try it.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] employee:
No, I did not install the "HTCDrivers.exe"

When I connected the MT4G to the XP system initially, it did not prompt me to do so.

Still I was able to view the G drive with Windows Explorer.

Anyway, I did install the "HTCDrivers.exe" and that took care of the "error: device not found" message. Don't see that anymore.

But now ...

...\platform-tools> adb push su /sdcard/su

failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
I don't recognize that command. "su" is used to initiate root access in ADB shell, but you don't 'push' su to the phone to get that root access. What exactly are you trying to do?
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] employee:
I am trying to follow these instructions:

http://wiki.cyanogenmod.com/index.php?title=TMobile_myTouch_4G:_Full_Update_Guide

I have already installed the Android SDK.

So ...

failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied

... means I am stuck at step 6 under "Gaining Temporary Root Access".
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] employee:
Well, apparently after you connect the USB cable to XP and phone - you must select "Charging" on phone.

Once I did that it did not display the "failed to copy 'su' to '/sdcard/su': Permission denied" anymore and I am able to complete those adb commands.
[myTouch 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TeeJay3800:
Glad you figured it out.

Hi Guys,

A friend has just released a beta version of my new android app Outbreak! The Zombie Apocalypse. I'd really appreciate if people could check out (If you're interested of course) and give me some feedback. This is only a beta version so I do anticpate some problems, but I need to get some real world testing done.

The idea of the game is that there are zombies and clean users. Zombies can infect clean users, and clean users have to try and survive. Once you are infected you can then spread the infection. Users are displayed in a map view as either clean or infected, and the game is location based, so real world locations are used. So your location affects how you play the game and spread the infection.

I would love your feedback.
[Android Apps and Games] oeN:
nice game :)

Dude this is soooooo OLD! had this 2 months ago, uninstalled cuz there are only Zombies left in NYC. BOR-RING!

Alright , so i have had the issue ..since froyo came about really , that i can not text my girlfriend . Only number in my entire contacts list that simply will not get texts when i send them to her . As a work around i have been using google voice .

Then came EC01 . BOOM! She starts getting my texts . Awesome right ? Kinda.... I go to apply my WP7 Revolution theme on top EC01 , and while the theme works ... she no longer receives my texts . So then i try another EB01 theme and get the same results . It works but no texts to her and only her .

THEN , i say .. maybe its because these themes are technically for EB01 . So i install gunnermike's new EC01 theme . BOOM! Texts work again to her . No offense to gunnermike , but i want to run my own theme ... so i reapply my theme , after ripping gunnermike's Mms.apk , and put it in my theme just for testing purposes . No dice .

So its obviously in something other than the Mms.apk that is causing this garbage . I even took the stock EC01 Mms.apk and put it in my theme ... and others as well just for testing .

Does anyone know what could effect this ? What could cause someone not to get my messages other than Mms.apk ? I have no idea what route to take now . Thanks .
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] gunnermike:
Um. Port your theme to ec01. I used sbrissens 6 lock framework and such. You obviously know how.
[Fascinate Themes and Apps] gunnermike:
Oh. No offence taken. I like my themes too. I mean who dosent run their own theme?

Great info! I recently installed the newest SyndicateROM 1.1.0 on my Epic and the only trouble I had was with the included Twilight 1.1.0 kernel. My phone kept freezing and I would have to pull the battery to reboot.

This is an issue that has been documented with the ROM and is said to be caused by the kernel and its adjustments to voltage and overclocking, not all phones handle this well.

To fix the issue I flashed the Twilight 1.0.4 kernel, as suggested by k0nane, and I am about a day into testing without any freezing issues. The only problem is that the Twilight 1.0.4 kernel has a known issue with video recording and it does not work.

Let me say that the performance increase from installing SyndicateROM and ext4 are well worth the trouble.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catalyst Shift:
Have you tried the vision kernel? That might fix your freezing without breaking video recording.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeNoM vZ:
is your brightness at 100%??? what was the difference between standard and fully loaded again??
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catalyst Shift:
What does the brightness have to do with anything? And for the differences, here's from the SyndicateROM thread:
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] VeNoM vZ:
The brightness for battery life.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catalyst Shift:
No, brightness is not at 100%. I generally use 0-25%, though I'll kick it to 100% when viewing photos or when I'm outside. Even with the lower brightness setting, I'd always have to recharge in the afternoon. I'm still doing a lot of testing for ways of having the battery last longer, today is longest it's ever gone for. I'll be adding more information when I feel like I've got a solid way of having it all setup.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k0nane:
OP, could you add the freezes and "terrible battery life" solutions? Namely, flash the kernel in the second post or VisionKernel. It's the most annoying one to answer multiple times daily. ;)

Thanks much for this! Hopefully people read it. ;)
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catalyst Shift:
I want to get the battery situation on my phone sorted out before adding it to the list. I was having pretty bad battery life, but switching to standard and removing gallery has made my phone last all day for the first time ever. I want to do some experiments between setcpu options, juicedefender and the vision kernel to see what works best. Hopefully by this weekend I'll have a more detailed idea as to how to get better battery life.

But for now, anyone having battery issues my current setup is using ACS standard and replacing gallery with quickpic. This has doubled my battery life.

Hey wassup everyone, first time writer long time viewer, and first let me say thanks to all the great people that have provided us with great roms for the epic and the syndicate team as well, Im currently using a Epic 4G with sindicate rom freeze 1.1.0 and i must say its awesome, aside from my battery dying really quickly when im runing it at 1.3ghz its actually great, usually i end up operatig it at 800mhz to actually save some battery life last me for 3 days at a time, and when i have it pluged in or show off my awesome epic i raise it back upto 1.3ghz, big difference cuz when i raise it up there my battery drains rather quickly like 3 percent a minute or so.....

well anyways now that, thats says, I have CWM 3..0.5 with syndicaterom twilight 1.1.0 and ive been sucessful at loading custom boot animation, but one thing is that im having trouble is loading the animation with sound? any idea onhow i can od that?, what are the steps, cuz so far ive been using root explorer to transfer and change bootanimation to load up on my screen, but i have no idea where to put the sound or how to even get it to load with the bootanimation any one have any ideas? please help, i do all his trought my phone, put the bootanimation on my sd and work from there and trasfer it to the system/media, most bootanimation that do have sound on them say to put it on the system/custimization/resources but i look every where and the syndicate rom doesnt have that archieve just the system/media, how can i load the sound into my boot? and how can i change the power off animation as wll?

Just tested Vision kernel 1.1 and ran into countless issues. My phone would not open camera, gallery, or music apps. And after that debacle I didnt even bother to find out if any other apps were misbehaving.

The first sign of trouble came when I installed a fresh version of SyndicateROM 1.1.0 and then flashed Vision kernel 1.1. The phone booted-up fine but when I went to shut down it immediately froze and I had to pull the battery.

Im going to stay on Twilight 1.0.4 kernel for a while until I find something else.

I have tested Twilight 1.0.4 kernel for about a day or two and have not had any problems so far. I even overclocked with SetCPU to 1.2GHz without any issues.

I would be more than happy to contribute my experiences if this gets up and running. PM me with any updates to the "SyndicateROM [TSG] WiKi"

[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Nolyrics2:
Please elaborate on the steps that you took to install the ROM and CWM.

What version of CWM are you running?

What modem do you have installed (...DK28, EB13, EC05)?

Have you transfered the SyndicateROM 1.1.0 onto your SD card before you installed CWM?

Did you wipe data, cache, and dalvik cache at least three times each before installing the .zip?

Your phone most likely is not bricked, that is a very hard to task to achieve. Worst case scenario you may have to do a clean wipe with odin and flash the stock ROM to start the process over. We can try to help you with any issues you may have but in the mean time try searching to the forum to find answers to these questions.

Fix permissions in CWM/etc.

Kernels cannot cause that. It's that simple.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] mercerma:
I used the one step root process I found here to install CWM 2.5.1.0. I then downloaded the ROM, copied it to my SDcard, then used CWM to install the zip from my sdcard.

I don't know what modem I have, is there a way to check with my phone in it's current state?

I installed CWM previous to transferring the rom to my sd card

I did not the first time, but per instructions on the page where I downloaded the ROM, I reformatted my sd card, redownloaded the ROM, wiped everything 3x's and tried to reinstall. Same result. I keep getting the error on just about everything I do that states "E:Can't open /cash/recovery/log"

And thank you for your advise, any more would be greatly appriciated. I did search the forum, but there is so much information, hard to find what I really want, especially as a novice. I plan to not be a novice for long thanks to xda!
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] NT_Prototype:
I could probably answer that question, im still a noob, but from what i know u need to install CWM version 3.0.5/6 in order for u to run does roms, thats why ure having trouble flashing it, since Syndicate roms are EXT4 Base Roms anything lower then CWM3 wont support since they are RFS files, go here and follow the steps

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=976194

download the CWM3 and root it again, u can run the CWM Root over the previous 1 so dont worry, i did it that way and i had no problems what so ever, as to check to see what modem u had, go to settings, about phone, under base band version check to see if the last 4 letters says EB13, or DK28, or if u have the ECO5 which is the newest stock base update that came out.

Also its best to know if ure phone is from stock, or if u updated from any of the first 2 version updates, EB or DK, if u where like me that waited for the update and stayed at Eclair then updated when the ECO5 OTA came out then u should be fine....

Just incase u are from a update of EB or DK here is the link for does 2 versions of CWM3

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=897612

if im wrong then someone please correct me im still a noob learning.

EDIT: just noticed that u said ure phone is messed at that point, umm u can try to do a factory reset then restart ure phone see if that fixes the problem, then try follow the steps above, if that doesnt work, u will have to download odin, which is also in that link and reflash back to stock, everything is there so if u follow does instrunctions u wont have a problem.....its actually pretty easy.....

as for u having trouble having the pc not recornizing it, i dont know what to tell u, i had that same problem and i had to take it to sprints service so they would fix the problem i had......my phone still worked but i couldnt update or have my pc recognize it....but in ure case, if that doesnt work, ure only option is odin, if odin doesnt recognize it, take it to a sprint service provider make sure u got insurance so they can do a firmware wipe clean update, and pray that ure warranty isnt void for going throught all that trouble....i had the end luck of the deal where my phone unrooted itself after i accidentally deleted the idlogo. unless their is another way then somoene please correct me

pull out the battery, and try again with the 3 finger salute, volume down key+camera button+power on button, try to do another factory reset if not, then ure best option is to try to find a rom that supports rfs, flash it and see if that does work, , other then that, im out of ideas, ive done all i can....if all fails odin dont work, a rom that supports ure cwm version 2.5 doesnt work, and ure pc dont recognize it, then best option is sprint service. once thats done, this time get the right CWM and do a clean flash of this rom syndicate wth twilight 1.1.0

I have tried resetting permissions through CWM before when I was running into similar issues on a different kernel (cont remember which one at the moment may have been Twilight 1.1.0) but it seemed to make the phone worse. When I ran permissions fix then booted the phone many critical service would force close, including Android service, Launcher Pro and other necessary processes. I couldnt do anything with the phone and I had to odin the stock ROM back in.

Resetting permissions is a great troubleshooting/fix if you are having difficulty with applications but it did not fix my specific issue. There may have been other problems such as data corruption or just a bad flash.

I have not tried the permissions fix for Vision 1.1 kernel yet and I have reverted back to Twilight 1.0.4 kernel for the time being.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kevbentz:
This rom is not compatible with CWM 2.5, you must use CWM3.

CWM 2.5 is for RFS ROMS and CWM3 is for EXT4 ROMS.

You should ODIN back to stock, copy the ROM to your phone, One-Click Root CWM3, flash ROM, flash Modem.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Catalyst Shift:
It sounds like you haven't used Odin before, do you have the drivers for your phone installed? Also, do you know to hold down the 1 key on the keyboard to boot into download mode to work with Odin? I'll update the first post with hotkeys, but you should be able to get into download mode and restore your phone to stock in Odin. The main rooting thread has info on how to use it. Then make sure you use the newer version of CWM before applying this ROM.
