Stupid question but can Kies software be uninstalled and just keep the Samsung USB drivers, would that still work?

dja2k
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zedomax:
Could but better to use Kies for newer Samsung devices.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dja2k:
I meant why keep Kies installed if you don't plan on using it and only needed the Samsung drivers installed to use Odin.

Thanks for the guide you worthless pimple on the face of humanity. I couldn't soft brick or perma brick my new phone because the guide was too easy to follow.

You suck..... now I can't post...

"You're stupid guide bricked my new phone arsehole"
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
I am sorry to have given you an excuse to actually be productive with a device. I suggest you place it in a jell-o mold and freeze it as the one device you didn't brick - but then you'd have bricked it - thus fulfilling your original desire to brick. Now go pass one through your intestines.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Yet Again:
I'm not going to blame you for anything...I'm a retard, and WAY tired. I just flashed the root kernel over "phone" in Odin! Do you know where I can find the stock radio/modem to reflash it right? Anything you can do to help would be great!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
Updated the OP:

Stock Modem EG12.bin - flash this using PHONE in ODIN
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Yet Again:
LOL...I'm SOOO thrilled you used my post as the "Noteworthy Post" example. A grand tip to the rest of the community, DO NOT attempt flashing/modding/rooting/hacking (as an amateur) when you are semi-drunk and half asleep. And THANK YOU to the OP for supplying the stock Modem, although, the scare of almost bricking my phone sobered me up enough to use the search function on the forum.

End of story!

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] DjKurt:
So I have a possibly stupid noob question...

I recently purchased a E4GT to replace my POS refurbished EVO... (I loved my EVO but after cracking the screen and getting refurbished junk a couple times I couldn't take it anymore)

The phone is awesome, but I would love to root it. Coming from HTC though... I have no idea what I'm doing with Samsung.

My main question is, what is the point of ODIN??? Or more importantly, what is the advantage of using ODIN to root??? Are there advantages of not using ODIN to root???

I wasn't sure if there was a thread answering these questions, but I knew if I did a search for it, I would come up with a ridiculous number of posts so I figured I would just ask here... Thanks in advance for any help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jerdog:
ODIN is the software "leaked" by Samsung that is used to flash firmware manually. It is the only way to get a custom recovery on the device, meaning the only way to achieve root. But it's possible given that the bootloader isn't locked like HTC.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Think of ODIN as similar in function to fastboot for HTC.

ODIN is very nice to have because even if you have a bad flash, as long as you can get into ODIN download mode, you can reflash the phone and get it working.

There are 2 ways you can root the phone and add CWM:

1) you can use ODIN to flash a BootImg/zImage with CWM and a pre-rooted ROM

2) you can use the Auto Root sticky to root and then use it to install a BootImg/zImage with CWM

For #1, if you flash "unsigned" software in ODIN (like a BootImg/zImage/Kernel with CWM) then it will trigger a yellow triangle and increment an ODIN flash count. If you flash Official "signed" Samsung software then the triangle will go away and the flash count won't increase (but won't go back to zero either) To get the flash count back to zero you can use a USB jig.

For #2, it doesn't involve flashing through ODIN so it doesn't trigger the yellow triangle nor does it increment the flash count. Also it doesn't involve flashing a new rooted ROM onto your phone. It roots your existing running ROM so you are assured everything will work exactly the same after rooting as before rooting. You can choose to root separate from installing CWM and also go back and forth between different kernels very easily. You can even swap kernels without using a PC, doing it directly from your phone. There is also support to disable CIQ w/o needing a ROM flash.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LouRock:
Thank you very much for putting all of this in a easy to understand breakdown! Very much appreciated!! Just came over from the EVO 3D and have been reading up and soaking as much info as I can before attempting to modify my anything on my new Sammy. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EvoSideHustlAZ:
question.thanks for any help.

i messed up and flash the tar file in bootloader box instead of pda,now when i go into cwm it says unknown volume path.any suggestions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Can you still get in download mode? Volume down and power. If so, try flashing one of sfhub's full stock system restores. He has EG30, EK02, and EL29 I believe. I use the EG30 or EK02 to avoid yellow triangle and bootloader change then Odin a kernel

Don't mean to threadjack, but I'm just wondering which root mod you used on your tab? I've got a Bell GT-P7500M as well and I'm thinking I need the 4G one, however it seems as though the 4G one is made for Verizon units only.

I've just tried out the phone's Satnav feature while in the car, after only 5 minutes the phone gets quite warm, I haven't used it long enough for it to get any hotter.

Is this normal and is it likely to harm the phone?

All electronics create heat when you work them hard. If the phone gets too hot it will shut itself down.

[Xoom Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] StrifeSoldierVII:
Ditto to the post above. As long as it's charging, I wouldn't mind leaving the screen on for a number of hours if I was at home. Although if I wasn't using it for anything I wouldn't be leaving the screen on, but it has a dual core processor, it's meant to take a heavy work load without heating issues or anything like that.

Well I like many of you on here are experancing horrendious data speeds and I don't seem to see any pattern to why some people have the problem and some people are just blazing along, so I am strongly considering taking the phone back to best buy and exchanging it for another E4GT tonight to see if that helps the problem.

Has anyone else tried to exchange their phone for another because of this problem? If so did it help or do you still have the same problem?

Also will Best Buy even let me bring mine in and exchange it for another on the spot over something like this? They said they have a couple in stock.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SAShady:
They may be back-hauling the network. Some days my data flies, some days its utterly useless.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] nickfuzz:
For what it's worth, I just got off the phone with a sprint tech rep and received an e-ticket to take my E4GT in for repair. He said they would try to "manually calibrate" the radio to get a better signal. He said that sometimes new phones are calibrated months before release and that new phones may not be calibrated properly when changes are made to the tower system. The rep said they were back-hauling their towers for a "multi-mode" setup or something, and my E4GT may not be calibrated for the recent changes. We will see. My data speeds aren't terrible, but they are a whole lot worse than my 1 year old Epic 4g. I will report back after the "manual calibration." Overall, though, loving the upgrade ...

I have tested nearly every day in culver city between 5-6AM so there should be minimal traffic at that time and I've tested later in the day and it doesn't seem to cause any significant different in speed so this isn't due to the heavy population of Los Angeles but lack of infrastructure. I've also tested on a regular basis the offices I visit.

On 3G

In Culver City near the intersection of 2 major highways - 200-400k down - 100-200k down.

In Westwood - 300-450k down - 100-200k up

In Brentwood - 300-450k down - 100-200k up

After two days of wondering why my Nook Color was freezing on reboot and going through multiple refreshes etc, I narrowed it down to Beautiful Widgets. It would only happen with the sd card inserted.

Anyone else have freezing issues?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] SCWells72:
This sounds very similar to what I experience when I'm running any ROM with a .32 kernel (pretty much any CM7 after 7.0.3 and MIUI). I definitely know it's at least partially related to mounting/scanning the SD card on initial boot, and I suspect that Beautiful Widgets is also involved, though I could swear it's also happened at least a few times when I replace Beautiful Widgets with Fancy Widgets and/or remove the SD card during boot.

If you can figure out how to work around it, PLEASE post your solution. It's for this exact reason that I've kept my Nook on 7.0.3.
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zires:
I'm on nightly 200 no solution yet. I didn't buy beautiful widgets so it's okay. I just use stock news and weather now.

I have BW paid and have not had any issues on Nightly 177 and Nightly 122.

However, I do suspect the more widgets running the faster the battery drain. With BW on, it seems to keep on occasion the sleeping CPU to clock up to 300/600 and then down again when I don't use the Nook looking at CPU Spy.

[Nook Color Themes and Apps] zires:
I'm thinking that it was because of the themes running from the card. Do you have themes running from internal?
[Nook Color Themes and Apps] Yoinx:
I'm running CM7 Nightly 198 (havent updated in the last few days) off internal. BW works fine for me off internal.

As was suggested... It could just be a result of running it off SD. A lot of things seem to have issues off the SD card.

I'm pretty sure on my Nook the app is installed to internal memory while the themes are on the SD card. Maybe you have a faulty SD card?

It's because you're using a stock ROM. I believe there's a service (though I can't for the life of me remember what it's called) that can detect if you're tethering or not. Custom ROMs remove the service so they can't tell.
