[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I respect your personal experience but the fact is that plenty of forum members, and members of Sprint forums etc etc, have reported the LOS issue while completely stock...even the Sprint salesperson that was selling me the phone acknowledge that the LOS issue is why he went back to his 3D.

I have yet to root this phone and have had LOS happen 3 times in the first 15 hours of having this phone.

[Getting to the point where I may have to get a different phone. As much as I love the design/screen/performance, it's useless with this issue]

It's conceivable that LOS's cause is not the exact same across all phones.

It's possible that by returning your specific phone to stock it reflashed the kernel/modem and corrected it for some reason.

I don't know.

But too many have reported LOS with stock phones, it's not rooting.

And there's no way that Sprint/Samsung is going to acknowledge that there is a problem with their device that is

caused

by rooting.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
Just to be clear, I didn't return my original phone back to stock as I do not believe that fixes the issue. I exchanged my device for another one.

I am not calling anyone a liar here but I do believe a lot of people are considering their phone stock if they rooted and then put the stock kernel back. This is obviously not the same as an untouched stock device.

I have also seen a lot of posts considering not being able to connect to the internet or receive a being considered the LOS bug. That is not the same.

If people are in fact getting an LOS on an untouched stock phone, it is definitley less frequant then people that have rooted.

As far as Samsung and Sprint actually acknowledging the issue, I will believe it when I see an update to address it. Until then they are just telling people what they want to hear. We should know better then to trust anything those people tell us. I do hope they release a so called fix because I will then be willing to root my phone but, until then I am staying stock.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Couple of things:

1) The fact that you exchanged the device and now aren't having the issue is furthering my point.

2) I have been around here and around computers long enough to know the difference between rooted and not rooted and service issues and this LOS issue.

3) You have no evidence to prove that people who are rooted are more likely to suffer from LOS.

4) http://community.sprint.com/baw/message/339779

A little less emotion, a little more reading.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eyecon82:
Dude...im not rooted and have seen this circle a few times....mostly its just crappy 3g speeds if not any and my bars showing good service
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
1) Yeah but I never saw an LOS on my first device either before I rooted it. Once rooted it, LOS popped up the next day.

3) I think the one thing that has been posted over and over in these forums is that once people rooted they started to see this issue for the first time or it became a lot more frequesnt after rooting. That is not my opinion but based on what others have been posting here.

For those using a phone that has not been rooted at all, it kind of sucks to have this issue. When we root we understand we can mess things up but when a device is untouched an issue like this is not acceptable.

4) Sorry, to me this is not official.......
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I'm willing to bet you that the first thing that most of the people that come to these forums do when they buy a device is root it.

It wouldn't surprise me if most people root the device within 6 hours of getting it.

My first LOS wasn't until about 7 hours after getting the device.

LOS is an intermittent issue.

Some people don't see it more than once a day, some once a week, some every hour.

Between how likely it is that the first thing an xda member does is root the device and the fact that LOS is an intermittent issue... it shouldn't surprise you that more people that are rooted are reporting the issue after rooting on these forums.

However, correlation does not imply causation.

Not to be rude but that's about as official as it's going to get and making a comment like that just makes you look like a troll.

Sprint has it in their system listed as a known issue.

Call Asurion and have them look in the system, they can confirm it for you. [Waits for conspiracy comment from someone]

Just because it's not plastered all over Engadget [**** I'm surprised it's not, those Apple/Verizon lovers should be eating this up] doesn't mean it isn't official.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
Sorry, Sprint is not going to admit that the issue is a known issue to deceive it's customers.

That servers no purpose.

If there was an ulterior motive... as you seem to try to implicate... they would NOT be admitting the issue.

The only reason I said what you said could be perceived as "troll like" is because it is about as official as you'll see for any other admission of a problem of this nature.

And I also told you of a way of confirming via a third party.

If all Sprint does is lie, which is what you seem to be trying to imply, then why are you giving your money to someone you don't trust anyway?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
lol, to not further our argument I will just leave it at this....When it comes to business, who can you really trust. Bottom line is someone is going to get your money so you have to choose who it will be. There is no fair play when it comes to business, you just have to choose the lesser of all evils that works for you.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mattykinsx:
I can honestly say that if I was so mistrustful of a company that I didn't believe they acknowledge an issue that they flat out acknowledge...well I wouldn't be doing business with that company.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HotInEER:
I am not rooted and have the issue, sometimes I can't make calls at all or receive them and my wifes and daughters Evos are fine, and my other daughters Evo Shift....no issues either. No data in lots of places either.

Swyped from my Samsung Galaxy SII EPIC 4g Touch on XDA Premium!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Don Qua:
My 2 cents: My wife and I each bought the Samsung Epic Touch 4G. Neither were rooted. Hers is just fine. Mine started losing signal, occasionally roamed to Verizon and finally wouldn't budge from a circle with a line through it no matter where I went. We live in a 4G area and that worked fine on both phones. I'm now back to my rooted HTC Hero. Rooting has nothing to do with this, Samsung/Sprint released this phone to the public before it was ripe and to my mind should bear full responsibility for the LOS fiasco.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] eman3316@optonline.net:
This is not the LOS bug though as when you see a circle with a line and must reboot the phone to get any type of service back.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
Quite possibly!

I will be traveling up north this weekend, so will be in and out of roaming, and finally roaming on Cellular One once I'm at my destination... With the Moment, I always had great reception and data speeds (Sprint actually has a 3G roaming agreement for the area). We will see how the ET does. If I can't get roaming data up there, Sprint will be hearing from me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dalmus:
Okay, so I'm up in Lakewood, Wisconsin, and after some trouble, got my data working. I had the dreaded triangle for about an hour, claiming my roaming settings were preventing data connectivity.

I had to uncheck and recheck BOTH the roaming and roam guard options before data came back.

Now I'm getting 1.2 mbs 3G speeds... I'm about 10 miles from Lakewood itself, and in a heavily forested area.

Also, interestingly, looking at my usage data, event though my phone indicates that I'm roaming, Sprint is seeing all my data usage (I streamed a 90 minutes movie from Netflix) as on-network. Netmonitor indicates I'm roaming on Cellcom... I wish I could get these data speeds on a native Sprint network!
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
i'm not sure if this has been discussed, so far i haven't seen mention of it, but has anyone else noticed that the Friend Stream app force closes immediately when trying to view a photo on Facebook? i have experienced this on pretty much every Rom i have tried...... anyway, here is a logcat of the force close taking plac, in case this hasn't been discussed yet, and in case anyone might be able to fix it... (wish i could lol). or if there is a fix i can do on my phone myself.....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Ah ok, thanks for taking a look. I actually have never restored anything with Titanium, and i was thinking that the reason it is popping up in the log was because right before making the force close happen, i had defrosted the alogcat app lol, because i don't want it to run all the time. So i defrosted it with Titanium and went straight to Friend Stream. Could that be why Titanium showed up there? I think the force close happens on fresh installs after wiping....
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Undeadk9:
Titanium is causing something to go hey wire. I didnt see any other errors.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Ok, thank you for looking, i'll see if i can fix it, perhaps by eliminating Titanium Backup.

Is anyone else having this problem?
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Undeadk9:
You also need to flash my security Patch If your using romanbb rom cause htclogger is in your logcat. Not a good idea.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
I figured out the issue! It was the friggin HTC Gallery that i had uninstalled in favor of Quickpic..... DOH! Freind Stream uses the HTC Gallery to open pics, which is actually pretty cool, because you then have all the options to share, etc. More and more i am realizing that you just can't mess with Sense, it's all so interwoven.

Thanks Undead for the help and sorry for the waste of time.
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] Undeadk9:
I didnt relize you Deleted stuff. When you Remove stuff that stuff wont show in a logcat. :P
[T-Mobile myTouch 4G Slide] yogi2010:
Ah yeah, my bad, i been deleting the stock gallery from my phones for so long, it didn't occur to me it could be an issue. I guess Sense is a different animal.... it's been pretty much all CM on my G2 :D, so i thought i'd get a feel for Sense for once.

[HTC Desire S] avensakias:
My phone is unbranded , unrooted & stock using ROM 1.47.401.4.

I have downloaded the latest ota 2.10.401.4 and in that zip there was a firmware zip in it.

i renamed the firmware zip to pg88img.zip and put it in my phone's sd root.

After the reboot of the phone has updated the firmware BUT thats all.

If i reboot the phone stucks on the HTC logo but also i can go to the bootloader options if on the reboot i hold down the volume button.

Is there any way to restore the phone?

I try to flash the stock rom but nothing.

Can anybody help please??

Resolution:

If anyone has the same problem and has hboot-2.00.0002 & S-ON you have to unlock the bootloader via htcdev.com site following all the steps and flash the EXT4 Recovery via FASTBOOT and NOT ADB.!!

Then go to recovery and flash any custom rom.
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
You can't boot because of new hboot. Have u s-off device ?
[HTC Desire S] avensakias:
No the phone is s-on and up on the screen it says LOCKED.

Never saw LOCKED before.

Is there any way to S-OFF now with the new hboot ??
[HTC Desire S] proxuser:
It says locked but nothin is locked. Try to flash 4ext recovery over adb. Should work I think. Instructions in general forum .
[HTC Desire S] avensakias:
Thanks.

i'll try and see whats going to happen.
[HTC Desire S] chris5s:
Which update did you download? There are a couple available - odexed & deodexed.

Maybe worth trying which ever one you didn't download the first time?

Also are you giving it plenty of time to load? First boot from a fresh install always takes a long time.

Don't worry, you don't have a brick :D

Waiting for stock RUU 2.10.401.4

If anybody else can help me please do.

Thanks.
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
That would be a choice, but I would say you'll be better of to use xtc-clip to gain s-off, after this everything is possible or just give it back for warranty and let them repair it,

because it's still s-on, but just to know, what else where in the zip?

Could it be that you forgot something, have you tried a factory reset?
[HTC Desire S] avensakias:
Do you know if I can get it from Greece.?

Does xtc clip works on hboot-2.00.0002.?
[HTC Desire S] Tectas:
Xtc-clip works with every version on every HTC device.

Go to a second hand handy shop that also does repairs and stuff like this maybe they get one, I s-offed mine this way for €20^^

In that zip file there was another zip file called Firmware.zip.

I renamed the firmware.zip to pg88img.zip and i put it in the root of my sd card.

I rebooted holding the volume down button and the phone went to bootloader mode found the pg88img.zip and flashed it.

Is there any way to flash the OTA via fastboot since over adb i get the message device not found..???
[HTC Desire S] chris5s:
Do you have a "recovery" option in the fastboot menu? If so try to go to this menu and see if adb recognises it then. But you have probably tried this already, right.

With adb, when you type 'adb devices', your phone is not shown, correct?

I'm not sure about getting S-off with the new hboot, I did mine with the old hboot.

You could try to download the deodexed rom on this page and flash that, but you need to get into recovery first.

Sorry, not much help I'm afraid.

Did you try to install these fastboot drivers?
[HTC Desire S] avensakias:
Unfortunately i have tried everything so far but didn't work.

The xtc clip maybe is the only way.. Or if the s-off solution of revolution will support in future my hboot and do it that way.

I also noticed that when i tried to flash the stock rom i had 1.47.401.4 and was stuck on the HTC logo the update software said that i had rom 11.10.401.4.!!!!!

Since i flashed the original fota why the version said 11.10.401.4 and not 2.10.401.4??

WTF IS GOING ON.??
[HTC Desire S] chris5s:
Well, I still don't think you have a brick - you can get into the bootloader, you just need your pc to recognise it via USB.

Have you tried flashing the previous hboot version you had? To enable revolutionary s-off?

Also have a look around the general Android forums, there are some very experienced peeps there who may be able to help.

You should ask this question on the XTC phone tools forum to raskal to be 100% sure that this new version is covered (see link on the XTC in my sig)

and as @tectas has said, there is still a possibility that you are still able to return under warranty and allow them to resolve it for you..

sorry unable to assist with confidence.

EDIT: see this thread that I created a while back that contains another link within it to lots of XTC owners around the world within it, but I'd confirm that the new HBOOT is covered before you run XTC http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1076937&highlight=xtc

3. to wait till someone leakes the stock signed ruu 2.10.401.4

[HTC Desire S] lousou76:
Guys I have a similar problem,

I have unlocked and rooted my HTC Desire S without using the clip.

It was S-off and working fine.

I have installed CWM recovery and backup up the phone.

One day the phone stuck and I tried the factory reset from the first menu

(keeping volume - button pressed and choosing factory reset).

This froze up the phone.

The phone now works having S-off and the cwm recovery works as well.

The thing is it produces error when trying to restore backup saying it does not find the /cache partition.

The greek vodafone company refused repair in warranty and asks for 160 eur!!!

This is a company phone and there are a million android application requiring root access to run.

There is no way we pay those money.

They will fix the phone using software but they try to charge a motherboard.

Only to make money.

They will only make us change company.

Do you have any idea how I can repair it?

Thank you.
[HTC Desire S] amidabuddha:
Try to format your cache from Recovery. Or restore a backup if you have one. More info in my signature
[HTC Desire S] lousou76:
I did and it just gets stuck in CWM formating or restoring.
[HTC Desire S] lousou76:
well, as far as i understand I have a damaged partition table and because I used revolutionary I do not have a compatible boot loader to restore original sw.

The phone stucks on htc logo and adb shell shows missing commands.

I will have the phone back from the service in a few days to be able to check if it is a hw error of fried chip.

Thank you very much for the help, I will update with the info to suggest.

I think there is away to repartition internal mem with fastboot and change sizes isn'nt? I dn,t understand why it happened though.
