[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilestoad:
So I bought a bad esn epic and a boost phone and successfully cloned the boost phone to the bad esn epic. So I have two epics right now (one for each ear?). As you can see in my other completely unanswered post :-) I was debating whether or not to sell the new one.

I've decided to stay with sprint for a bit longer but I want to keep the replacement phone they sent me in the box. Unopened that is!

My original epic has a busted battery connector which I have bent a bit so it will stay on as long as I don't jar it, so I can read data off of it with CDMA workshop etc. The busted battery thingy is why Sprint replaced it for some cash of course.

So I want to clone my epic over to the bad esn epic. I can't figure out what I'm missing, I cant get the 3g to work (I haven't even tried the 4g). I'm sorta following the epic to boost instructions but I must be missing something.

Is this just copying the thing over in CDMA workshop?

Help please?? Pretty please? With sprinkles on top?

(I have to beg 'cause no one answered my other q :-) )

super-grassy-ass in advance. I hope..............

dude it's my sprint account to my sprint account and my epic to my epic. Just like my epic to my boost account from my boost phone.

Hey, if you are an admin, then just close the thread.

If you are not an admin, why are you offering responses that don't have anything to do with my question?

If you're correct the proper people will handle it. In the meantime perhaps you could troll another thread.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane6374:
There are threads about flashing your phone to a different carrier, that's allowed. Cloning esn's just isn't. I think there was a thread in q&a within the past week or so.

Another useful response, eh? I did do a search, but of course it's possible I missed the thread you're talking about.Thanks for adding posts to the thread though, that should generate some help for me. Or for you :-)

You're right, you win. I'll leave your thread now.

Why would you post this instead of just going away? Are you one of those thread trolls that also needs the last word?? I'm having trouble figuring out any of your motivations here except verbosity.

And while I stand by my comments, I apparently got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning. :-(
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shane6374:
Actually, the way I see it by both my thread count, and thanks count, I clearly present some value to the Epic forum. You on the other hand, decide you want to flame back at someone when they are just nicely informing you of the forum rules, like a good member of the forum would. There was nothing mean or trollish about my first post in this thread.

Wow, I see you changed your OP. Guess something I said must have been right.

Hello I've been experimenting with some custom roms on a HTC Thunderbolt. The friend that owns it said he had a backup stock original rom that came with the phone, but all of sudden does not have it anymore. I am wondering if there is a way I can get the original stock Froyo 2.2 ROM that came with the Thunderbolt. Or even better the stock OTA Gingerbread 2.3 update that came in last week. I've found some stock roms online, but they all turned out to be invalid. Any help is appreciated. Thanks.

Here is one stock rom that I found:

PG05IMG_Mecha_VERIZON_WWE_1.70.605.0_Radio_1.39.00.0627r_NV_8k_1.41_9K_1.64_release_200422_signed.zip

but all the downloads of this file turn out be to invalid.
[General Questions and Answers] scotty1223:
do you want to unroot? or do you want a rooted stock rom?

if you want to stay rooted,flash one of these in recovery:

froyo 1.70.605.0

gingerbread 2.11.605.3

RUUs if you want to unroot:

froyo 1.70.605.0 (note this is a .exe file)

gingerbread 2.11.605.3 this is a pg05img(install in hboot)

i checked the last 2 downloads and they are working fine. :)

When i go into recovery 4ext recovery touch is whats available, current rom:unknown. Im fairly new so i would greatly appreciate any help, I like this phone alot and would hate to use something else. I dont care if after everything is said and done its still rooted or not.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] flucks:
I just got my S2 today to replace my aging Captivate. I didn't read very well and ended up putting CMW 5.x instead of the 4.x needed for CM7, so I kept getting permission errors when trying to install cm7. I am currently running Cognition right now and wanted to go back to CM7 (what I was running on my captivate)

I have a feeling I am going to be told that the only way to go back is with the [Heimdall][Odin][Stock+Root]UCKH7 Stock kernel way. The problem is, I don't have access to a Linux machine at the moment. If there is a way to go from Cog to CM7, any help would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
The return to stock packages SHOULD work in Odin too.

However - codeworkx's CWM 5.x should work for installing CM7. It doesn't make sense to me that his CWM kernel wouldn't be able to install his CM7 release. Were you trying to install the I9100 variant of CM7???
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] flucks:
Hmmm I9100 shows up on the boot screen. I am guessing I screwed something up. I was installed the I777 CM7 but it kept giving me permission errors and wouldn't install. It says signature verification failed.

So just install those two files through Odin and that should revert it back to stock?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jivy26:
Where you using Rom Manager to flash CM7? Also you can flash to stock using Odin and entropy's files :o
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Entropy512:
I9100 will always show on the splash screen if you are running a custom kernel

As far as I can tell it's something in the bootloader, not the kernel itself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] flucks:
I think I have really messed something up. It won't let me install any zips after I used odin to install SGH-I777_ClockworkMod-Recovery_X.X.X.X.tar as the PDA. It keeps giving me the signature verification error. I am starting to miss my Captivate a little bit.

Edit: Ok, now I have gone to getting an "error status 7" when installing CM7 from recovery. It will abort the install every time. It's nightly #73.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] flucks:
Sorry for the double post. I came to find out that I am just an idiot. I was trying to install the wrong S2's CM7. Let this be a lesson. Read instructions. Thanks for your help guys.

Nightly 73!?? There is no nightly 73 for at&t i777, actually there r no nightlys AT ALL for this phone yet, r u in right xda section??

[Fascinate Accessories] chopper the dog:
So after reading about vibrant users having success with using the epic touch 4g battery. I figured I'd order one up. Why? Well both of my batteries are a year old and I can tell they have degraded over time. And this one is 300mAh MOAR!!!! than the stock 1500mAh battery that came with this device.

http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=28506

The new battery is just about 1/64th of an inch thicker than the fascinate stock battery but it still works with the stock battery cover. Just into the first full charge and I can tell a difference already with screen on time at an hour with 84% left. Where normally after an hour of screen from a full charge I would be at 70%. The one thing I notice though is the battery does not charge in my spare charger that I got from vzw a year ago. It must have the same hardware check that the phone does. But since I'm running an mtd rom it charges fine in the device since the hardware check is not included within mtd kernel source.

***TOUCH WIZ USERS*** The fascinate has a hardware check that will only allow for the use of "vzw" specific batteries. So before you order one confirm that your current custom kernel has the hardware check disabled and that you can use/charge 3rd party batteries.

good day.
[Fascinate Accessories] phillip_viado:
how do you check for the hardware disable. im running on the GeeWiz 2.0 Alpha EI20
[Fascinate Accessories] bobloblaw1:
Ask whoever compiled your kernel.
[Fascinate Accessories] OhioYJ:
I've been using the Epic 1500 mah batteries for a long time now. I was getting them off eBay for $2 a piece including shipping brand new out of China. Just ordered 2 more this morning, although they've gone up to ~$4 each with shipping. I use two external aftermarket chargers as well, so I rarely ever charge them in the phone. That's why I've never understood the battery life worry, I just carry a spare battery. (Have 7 now, but we have two fascinates in the house)
[Fascinate Accessories] chopper the dog:
errr right.... But the battery in the the op is from the sgsII line and not the original sgs variants. The fact that the epic sgsII came stock with 1800mAh is what I was interested in.

good day.
[Fascinate Accessories] OhioYJ:
Yeah I realize that, my point was even though that battery is cheaper than the OEM battery for our phone, the battery I mentioned is still a fraction of each. At $3.70 a battery I can have a lot of 1500 mah batteries to one 1800 mah batteries. Although I may have to check eBay and see if I can find the new 1800 ones dirt cheap too.
[Fascinate Accessories] saps:
Nice info chopper
[Fascinate Accessories] TCStehle:
Thanks for the great info. Just ordered one for my Fascinate running MIUI/Glitch. The additional 20% in battery capacity will definitely be welcome.
[Fascinate Accessories] japin:
I too just ordered one, I need the extra battery, I eat it up at work and then dont have enuf left for the night time. I love my phone and I always seem to need to do something on it.
[Fascinate Accessories] chopper the dog:
Very pleased so far. I wanted to give a couple charge cycles and time to settle in. But it almost feels like them good ole DJ05 days of yesteryear in the battery department with this thing. I had ALOT of downtime today at work and hammered the device (found a sweet disc golf game and logged about 1 1/2 just on that :p ) today and just watched the battery level trickle down. And even did some maps with gps today (who knew there are like 4 sheridan rd's on the north side of chicago that run e/w and n/s) cause we got lost.

Background of my current set up:

Pool Party 1.4.1 (mtd rom) which includes jt0912 kernel within rom.

I sync gmail and have fancy widgets update every hour. Twitter is done via a colorize widget that I have set to manually update when I feel like it. The rest of the screen time is reading emails and xda and rootz apps with some surfing in between gaming. My screen brightness setting is always at 45%. Oh yeah forgot, 25 minutes of talk as well.

would have been nice if this battery came stock a year ago.

good day.
[Fascinate Accessories] neh4pres:
Ohhh the dj05 days.. I miss those much. Used to listen to music all day at work, 8 hours of media server running and some web surfing and would get home and still have 80% battery left.. Wish someone knew why that service release sipped the juices so slowly..

I got the new Epic Touch 4G battery yesterday. I charged it to 100% with the phone off, rebooted into recovery and cleared Batt Stats. Today I'm going to let the phone run down to almost nothing before charging again. Any other suggestions for maximizing battery life?

Also, Chopper I noticed your Cell Standby is much lower than mine, I'm at 24% and my Display is at 14% with only 1h 25m time on. Any suggestions on improving/reducing Cell Standby battery usage?

I'm running MIUI 1.9.16, the last Glitch kernel, and the EC09 radio.

Thanks.

Well, shoot. Was gonna post a big hullabaloo about finding this battery in the Vibrant forums, and I've been beaten to the punch. Oh well. Here's what I was gonna write. Er... copy and paste?

Hello there, Fascinate people! Visitor from the Vibrant forums here. We found and tested an 1800mah battery that, while intended for the Epic Touch 4G, fits and works perfectly in the Galaxy S and all it's variants. I've personally tested it in a Samsung Fascinate and a Samsung Vibrant. The Fascinate was a tighter fit than the Vibrant, but the battery door closed just fine.

I've personally tested the battery over the past week and it lasts significantly longer than the default 1500mah battery (I'm a relatively new Vibrant user, so my battery is only a couple months old). The math seems to match up with the 1800mah claim. To be clear, this isn't as surprising as it would be if this were a random Chinese ebay battery. This battery is made by Samsung for the Epic Touch 4G. It's noticeably thicker than the stock Galaxy S battery, but not so thick that the battery door on the Vibrant and Fascinate won't close completely.

The battery can be found here:

http://www.mobilecityonline.com/wireless/store/productdetail.asp?productid=28506

I spent quite a bit of time trying to find the best 3rd party battery for my phone, and lo and behold, the best one comes from Samsung itself.

If you'd like to read more than just my humble opinion, here is a link to the thread started in the Vibrant forum:

I have two of those.chargers, never used the USB port though. Mine did not come with cables though, you can use.the stock one if you wanted. I've bought 8 batteries out of Hong Kong, all OEM Samsung batteries, never had an issue or problem. Just got 2 in the mail today actually. If you have an external charger and multiple batteries there really isn't much of a reason to plug your phone in on a regular basis anyways.
[Fascinate Accessories] jordanzink:
can you link me to the ones that you buy? I just ordered the naztech one but i can return it if its a huge cost/efficiency difference
[Fascinate Accessories] OhioYJ:
I buy the 1500 mah Epic batteries, not the 1800 mah mentioned here. I was getting them for $2 each, these last ones where $3.70 each shipped. I now have 8 (two fascinates) and I just rotate through them keeping a spare one in my pocket.
