thanks works good :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
can a mod please sticky this..Its very essential to rooting our phones..

Thnaks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
updated with newest repacked stock kernel...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
I just rerooted my phone...for some odd reason, following the steps..After i flash .Bat file from FlashzImage folder...I cant boot into recovery..it just sits at Galaxy screen..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Did you try to root your phone using this method? If so, This does not give you clock work or root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
no, I flashed another kernel that included root and cwr before flashing pulled stock as instructed..then ran .bat file following the rest of the procedure..after that I couldnt boot into cwr
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
when did you download??
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
like 15-20 minutes ago chris
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
try odining the stock repack and see what happens
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
Did it, now the triangle came back :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
well i knew that, but does cwm boot?

if it does, then redownload the triangle method and do it again...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire118:
still no luck, unfortunately..followed same procedure but flashing the repack as the root kernel..then flashed the pulled stock from post..ran .bat...still no boot
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] billykent1972:
That worked! Thank you so much!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Flash a different kernel with root, try flashing the Lostkernel first then following instructions
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deho24:
I am having the same issue with CWM

I was rooted with LoST Kernel and running Star StarBurst Stable 10.22.11 when I used this method to get rid of the triangle. The method got rid of the triangle but now I can't get into CWM recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] LukeLeBron:
where do i get one of the "$2 jigs" to reset my odin counter? or how do i make one? xD
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Snazarian:
Check Ebay...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Did you try quick boot or adb or terminal to try and get into recovery?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] deho24:
I used Odin to flash eg30Plus-1.1.0.0.tar.md5. Made sure that I had root. Used Odin again to flash acs-eb30-stock-kernel-pulled. Then ran the Installer .bat with the zImage I pulled from stable_epic_starburst_10.22.11_v1.8.zip. Then I did a data factory wipe, Storage/Mount system format, and wiped both caches. Flashed stable_epic_starburst_10.22.11_v1.8. I restored all my apps and data with Titanium Backup and everything has been working perfectly. Thanks for the help.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zurginator:
If I use this method, can I get it to the point where I can swap out the phone through warranty?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Just use the stock rom or stock pulled kernels zimage and you will be on stock
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
No, this method 'gets rid of the yellow triangle'

You need to restore to stock method.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
They can use this method to flash the stock kernel and not have any yellow triangle so that it doesn't appear to have been modified
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
I hear ya but from what I have been seeing the warranty people dont even care. In fact I know some people who have gotten warranty replacement Evos with the Bootloader unlocked...lol.

Remember its not illegal to root your phone.... I understand not wanting any problems though
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sader2202:
Just use a jig, does the same thing with all that mess.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
You are right but problem is you just cant go to Best Buy and get one if you need this done right away. Honestly this is only a 5 minute procedure and then you can flash zips all day. Don't get it twisted I ordered a jig but just in case I need it for anything else...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
For sure, I have also heard the opposite end
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alwaysbelieve1:
Why wouldn't I want to just use a $2 jig every time since it's not gonna ever hurt anything? Just plug in and BAM... Done.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] alwaysbelieve1:
And why would you "NEED" this done right away do you say?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] playya:
OK thought this would be rather obvious but since my Boys are getting whooped I have time. If someone flashes a kernel today and is anal retentive like so many are who flash phones and just does not want to see that hideous triangle they can use this method. It you need to bring your phone in real quick and don't have time to wait a week or a month for a jig. I mean there are reasons even if you don't think so. Your opinion is OK with me to each his own my friend

It's all about convenience
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
maybe you do want to.. im not about telling you what you want, and I dont care... I just put some knowledge out there.

If you don't wanna use it, why would be in my thread posting? just dont use it..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I just got my jig. What are the steps to removing triangle?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
There are no steps with a jig

Can't get my phone in USB debugging mode

I've made it through the first two steps. I've flashed a rooted kernel and the stock kernel successfully. I've downloaded the zImage files, but I can't get my phone to go go into USB debugging mode. My PC sees it in storage mode whether I have USB Debugging checked or not. I've got the Samsung drivers and Kies installed and everything seems to be ok there. Any ideas on what I need to do to get into debugging mode? Thanks in advance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Are you trying to run the 'run bat' option to start the process?

If you see the usb debug icon on the top left of your screen...you're good to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boneman1:
That's my problem. I'm not getting the debug icon on the phone after I check the debug box and connect to the PC.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
Try rebooting both phone and computer.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
This was my next advice...:cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] boneman1:
Can't Get E4GT in USB Debugging Mode

I've tried rebooting everything and started from scratch in the process with no luck. I finally just flashed back to the stock kernel and ROM. I may give it another try tonight.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
What rom are you running? Calk removed displaying the debugging icon in his rom
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tpike:
man as much as this phone is similar to the OG epic, there are a TON of differences. People NEED to read everything before they jump in. very thankful for your work Chris and for this contribution. cant wait to get set up and start contributing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
Hey tpike! Good to see you. When did you jump on board? This is an awesome fix for that yellow thingy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
does anyone know the steps on how to do this for linux? i got rid of it using my friends pc with windows, but i flashed the rogue kernel with heimdall and the yellow triangle came back. not sure if id have to install adb to do this. would be greatly appreciated.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tpike:
got my touch yesterday...it was a deal i couldnt turn down. sprint corporate is literally giving the phones away. this will make a good spare ;)

didnt know you left. when are we gonna get together and make a rom Rounsy222?

RE the fix, im curious to know if it makes the phone return ready? we need someone with the guts to take theirs back to the store.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
I think having the yellow triangle missing is good enough for the "expert's" at sprint
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tpike:
you willing to give it a try? :)

i was nearly flagged on my epic when i took it in for service. he noticed my custom bootani and told me i better leave and not come back until i was stock or the techs would flag us.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
No issues with my phone but if there were i would have no issues
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] greatlakesghost:
Lol maybe when work subsides some. I left a week after release of this phone but stuck around the old haunt to help out in a of few of ck’s threads.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chris41g:
you can just unzip the archive, then copy the files, minus the bat, to your phone. i forget which directory, but probably /data/local/.. you can verify by looking in the bat where i pushed them

the use adb shell or terminal app and run

su

chmod 777 filename (where filename is all the files you pushed)

sh ./install.sh (or whatever i called the sh file)

sorry for the lack of info, im at work and frankly dont remember
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] paranoid android85:
do i have to flash the stock kernel still?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rickyq12:
Bubby's stock pulled kernel...yes, you do have to flash it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MaliceOmega:
flashed earlier and it worked flawlessly. flashed different things bout 5 or 6 times just to make sure it was good. great work dude. thank you
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Alex1x:
Trying to get rid of the Yellow Triangle, please some noob help please...

I'm rooted with StarBurst Rom.

I'm on a Mac

I rooted via Heimdall

Your help would be MUCH appreciated (sorry, I'm a noob and I will follow instructions step by step =)

Much thanks in advance...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tpike:
Do you have a virtual pc on your mac? Looks like the op helps you out from there.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MaliceOmega:
The step by step instructions are in the OP. Just skip the first ones if your already rooted. Just flash bubbys kernel then dload Chris' flashzimage, unzip and press the installer or install.bat file inside. It's pretty straightforward. And remember backup backup backup, just in case lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asbjörn:
Worked like a charm!

Thanks Chris! This worked beautifully and exactly the way you laid it out!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Gorguts:
Help!

I can't get the batch installer to see my device. Drivers are insatlled, android sdk is installed, java. What am I missing? On a side note did anyone make a ROM or kernel that has the triangle fix baked in?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
gps sucks on this phone. Its not bad if you reboot the phone and use it but if u don't reboot the phone for a while it wont lock. Anyone else have this problem? Also has anyone found a dialer code where we can change some things on GPS? I know the original epic we could change settings by using a dialer code. Thanks.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] chunology:
I've never had GPS problems on my phone and I use it almost daily. Locks in seconds and keeps decent track of my location. Perhaps your unit is defective?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Maybe its pretty awful. This dialer code ##gpsclrx# has helped it. It resets the gps. It still sucks. Do you have agps on as well?

Sent From My Evo Killer!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] darkfire79:
I have the same issue. Its worse when I use something like juicedefender that enables GPS as needed. Thw first lock, like you said, is quick, but down hill from there.

Same issues I had with gps from moment to epic and now this. Why Samsung?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kasper19:
well at least you get the first lock. it takes forever for me to get my first lock. Possibly 5+ minutes. Heck, I drove out of the city yesterday with google maps open and gps on. It never got a lock until I reached my destination. Talk about useless!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] exploited789:
Soo glad im not the only person with this issue. Came from the Evo and the GPS on thie phone is horrible. The only way I get it to lock is using GPS toolbox and clearing the GPS data then downloading the AGPS assistance and letting it lock. Then I can open maps/navigator.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] linzgeneral:
You are lucky. That gives me hope that mine might be defective because it is off by at least a half mile. i will try to exchange today.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jirafabo:
I use my GPS anywhere from 2-10 times a day. I use it for my business when I'm heading to new customers' places and I also do some geocaching and mountain biking in my spare time. The GPS on the Touch has yet to give me any problems at all. Just my experience. I usually get a lock within 5 seconds down to about 3 meters. I came from the OG Epic as well, so I know what crappy GPS can be like.

But the LOS issue only effects some so I'm sure there can be a GPS bug that only effects some too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mplsdunk:
mine doesn't work either. debating on trying to exchange it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mmark27:
Apparently, some are reporting that if you disable "encryption" of the SD card, this frees up the GPS. This may not be everyone's savior because I don't have mine encrypted and "very occasionally" get GPS issues.

The other way I've rectified a momentary loss of GPS is by using the GPS status by Chartcross. When in there, go to Menu, settings, update AGPS. Works like a charm. 85% of the time, I get a lock within 2-5 seconds max. Sometimes it just doesn't want to see the sky very well.....so I update AGPS
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Bigjim1488:
Sometimes mine take a bit to lock. I'll usually just toggle the GPS off then back on and it locks quick.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ElAguila:
I guess I am going to have to take mine in. None of these fixes work for me including the gpsclrx command from the other thread. The best I ever got was 1 in view and 0 in use after 10 minutes of scanning.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
I know rebooting the phone clears out the GPS cache. My phones GPS is okay for the first like 24 hours but if don't reboot it after that I have nothing. Might start trying some apps.

GPS sucks horribly!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jirafabo:
I'm not sure what aGPS is? Where would I check that? I do have gps status installed but haven't had to use it. I used to reset aGPS in that app all the time on my og epic.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Its the use wireless networks under location and security. Maybe its not called agps though. So do u have that checked? Thanks bro.

it shouldn't, try to get it replaced. you will not regret it. the processor in this phone is smokin'. makes my OG Epic feel like a snail. other than a few software bugs with the messaging app, i have enjoyed this phone very much.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Megatr0n.:
GPS has been great on my Galaxy S2 compared to the iPhone 3GS I came from. It finds my location almost instantly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] s14tam:
Gps on this phone for me has sucked. Tried different roms, but has not helped. Takes forever to get lock and re-lock. On my hd2, i used to get lock almost instantly.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jfenton57:
Mine just sh*t the proverbial bed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kanyewest:
I downloaded gps status and toolbox from the market and i now get gps locked in 5 seconds.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] babbit:
I hate to say it, but this is the worst performing GPS phone I've ever had. Its even worse than my old epic 4g. Luckily it doesn't affect me too much since I don't need GPS much, and rebooting is super quick, so I just reboot the phone ever time I want GPS. It's not ideal, but at least there is a work around. At least I don't have he LOS issue because that seems like a bigger deal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kasper19:
Just received my replacement ET4G and I have to say, GPS is night and day from the previous one. Locks almost immediately after seeing a couple of satellites. Basically it turned out to be the same exact thing as lattisimo

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
I've gotta admit that this phone has been near perfection for me...not a single thing that I couldn't work around to make things absolutely perfect for me...

...except the GPS...

Even the NS4G was better, and that thing was perfect in every way except every way that involved any type of radio, GPS included.

However, that is a silver lining to me. I'm a well experienced social engineer. This GPS problem will turn this ET4G into a Nexus Prime. It still sucks that Samsung still manages to boff this up...likely the same issue with the NP too, but, time will tell.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iBustCh3rries:
I'm coming from a Samsung galaxy S vibrant on T-Mobile... I don't know if any of you here are familiar with that phone, but I'm just happy having a phone that can see gypsy's in the sky let alone lock on them!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mister2quick:
I'm having an issue with GPS as well. Had the OG Epic, which had horrible GPS quality, then switched to the Nexus S, which was on-point, and now I'm worse off than the OG Epic...

It will get a satellite but loose sat connectivity like 6 times when going to my destination... Going to try the gpsclrx and I have cache cleaner scheduled to go every 12 hours (trick I learned from OG Epic)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
I came from the Moment... I hadn't had a working GPS for over a year!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Smoked600:
Mine gps will only lock if I use wireless networks with the gps, and with that its usually about 40 meters off and takes about a minute to lock

My current combination of cyanogenmatt, sonygenmod with fserve kernel has decent battery but 3g seems to remove every bit of juice in any rom..was wondering if by any way 3g drain could be removed at least slightly reduced

Thanks in advance !
[Optimus One, P500, V General] deetailed:
3G is a battery eater, that's a given in any smartphone. Your options are:

- turn data off when you're not using;

- use only 2G unless you're downloading; or

- get a battery-saving app from Market to smartly turn data on and off in intervals
[Optimus One, P500, V General] sweetpotatoz:

[Upgrading, Modifying and Unlocking] bodyb:
Ive searched, and searched and havent come up with a solution to my issue.

I get to step 12 in the HTCdev unlock method, input

"fastboot flash unlocktoken Unlock_code.bin"

It then kinda begins the process, but doesn't ever get to "writting flash" (to my understanding its supposed to write the code, and tell you its writting the code)

I then have to unplug the phone, and ofcourse then I get the response failed (too many links)

Ive flashed ruu 2.08, which my 3D already was, tried to unlock again, and get the same results??

Ive seen this problem posted on numerous sites, all over youtube comments, just about everywhere (if you search hard enough). Does anyone have any insight as to what my issue could possibly be?

**Ive flashed many phones, and other equipment before, so I at all do not consider myself a newbie**

If anymore info is needed, lmk and Ill get it to you.

I know someone out there has an answer. Everything is up to date, I even reinstalled drivers, downloaded "rootevo3dnew" folder, still the same issue.

OK, so we had this on the OG Epic, anyone compiling a list of stuff safe to freeze or delete? I finally rooted and theres the old obvious ones, but theres a lot thats new... just wondering if this was already in the works.

Also, funny story, almost bricked my phone... after using Odin a couple thousand times, almost loaded an Epic 4g GB leak... damn Odin, installed a new copy in my new ET folder, it defaulted to the last folder when I went to choose the .tar (for my old epic) and I nearly flashed it! Close one!

Anyways, so ive had this baby like 3 weeks and ive got to say, I dont think I have seen the LOS thing at all... Ive seen no bars plenty, but no (/) thingy... is this issue that random?

OK back on my own topic... already running latest Midnight (thanks as usual Rob!), but theres still some stuff that looks like it wants to be deleted... maybe a treat ( ;) ) in General with an ongoing list of what can be killed off and whats a no-no?
