I had to sign out of Google voice on my old device first. Then setup Google voice on the amaze, and this got rid of the error for me.
[HTC Amaze 4G] musky:

Signing out of voice on my old device won't work becase it was stolen. Are there any other work arounds?

Polaris office is giving me a notification telling me I don't have enough ram to open files larger than about 20 mb...how do I resolve this?

Also ezpdf is giving me an error telling me all the files i have on my transformer are corrupt...?

Anyone else having this error?
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spidey01:
Just a WAG here but sounds like you have a problem with your tf or your files. If the files are local from e.g. a sd or usb, and not downloaded: then I would try doing a wipe. If it persists, probably RMA.

If it's a fike you got over WiFi or Bluetooth or 3G or w/e, make checksums to prove the files are correct; also test known goid files.
[Eee Pad Transformer Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] slotstik04:
I tried the files over Documents to go and it worked fine, which really confuses me. The PDF's also work on Repligo PDF reader. So i'm wondering if there is something wrong with Polaris on my TF? If so how do i rectify that? I've done a complete wipe to no prevail :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
PLEASE READ THIS FULLY BEFORE CONTINUING!

looks like all the modem.bin files out there are the eg12 version (as i flashed to fix my phone also)

and my mom's has the eg30.

on further inspection this creates a problem, even after returning to stock and resetting everything if you plug your phone into kies the eg12 version gives a "this version of the device cannot be upgraded" while the eg30 says "this device is up to date" (both were hacked and returned to stock to check this)

At the moment there is no way to get eg30 back (will update post when found)

EDIT

Let it be known if you flash eg12 at the moment you cannot go back. you most likely will not be able to get a new modem until sprint/sammy release an update. whenever that may be.

Some people are saying the eg12 modem is causing the phone not to wake from sleep to answer calls. at the moment from what i can tell this is a small percentage of the total number of people who have installed eg12. this issue may or may not be caused by the eg12 modem on it's own. but we cannot jump to conclusions and really do not have nearly enough data on the issue.

that being said I and many others do not have an issue with the phone waking from sleep either on or off the charger.

but it would probably help others if we could collect enough data to be sure.

So if you have an issue with your phone sleeping please post in this thread.

include at least: (these are mine)

baseband: EG12

Kernel: 2.6.35.8-lostkernelexp+

Build: Starburst 10.22.11

how often does this problem occur: NEVER

if we can get at least this much info together we can get a better picture of what's going on and take it from there.

PLEASE do not go complaining in the [guide] thread that is for instructions on how to flash not for phone issues.

also posts 53/54/63 may help

probably wouldn't hurt to read through the thread either.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Perhaps the EG12 modem is why my phone is not waking to take calls. :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
mine was doing that for a little while also but reflashing the stock-eg30 filesystem and kernel seemed to fix it and i havn't had it happen again even after all the roms and kernels i've been throwing at it lately. so you may give that a try. could have just been the dead spots in my house though so ??

I'm betting the first time sprint/samsung release an update for the modem we'll be able to hijack it. but until then i was hoping for a solution to see if it helped my weak signal in parts of my house.

just a note the modem.bin gets flashed to....

--- Entry #9 ---

Unused: No

Partition Type: 2 (EXT4)

Partition Identifier: 9 (mmcblk0p8)

Partition Flags: 0 (R)

Unknown 1: 0

Partition Block Size: 720896

Partition Block Count: 32768

Filename: modem.bin

i'm rusty at this anyone think...

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/backup/modem.bin bs=720896"

made a 16mb file ..... seems right. now i just need a test or two then to see if i can find a way to borrow moms phone again :)

EDIT

Knew it couldn't be that easy. :( when flashed back to phone gives version unknown and no signal at all . BLAH.

maybe someone will chip in with what i'm doing wrong. or samsung has some wackness with this partition that i don't know how to deal with and it's not possible this way.

edit bs=4096 doesn't help
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I went back to stock, no root and all. Even did a factory reset and made is to hands free activation again. I ended up restoring a nandroid from a while back, the kernel is zedomax V3, I have the min cpu freq at 400 and it will wake to receive calls just before the caller is sent to voicemail, lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
you may give the latest lostkernel a shot and see if that helps.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kaddaj:
I'm currently on the latest lostkernel build stable 1.0.2.0 and it still will not wake for a phone call unless it's asleep on the charger :( I also flashed the modem on the sticky about a week ago. I have great reception where I live (San Francisco) and I've just tested it five times. It doesn't wake when called unplugged. Minimum cpu is 200-500 asleep. I'm going to odin back to completely stock to do more testing.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
Maybe try the non experimental build without overclocking?

Mine seems to wake on calls both on and off the charger but you never know.

Wish we could figure out a way to get a eg30modem.bin as that may be part of the problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dee_zee:
my original was EG30

tried to root, but messed up my phone, then i managed to unroot back, now i have the EG12 version.

same thing here, Kies can't update the firmware version.

first time here, thank you so much for you guys hardwork, i was able to get my phone working again! :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I am beginning to think that modem.bin is bad for our devices!!!

Many who have flashed it are not getting calls while the phone is sleeping...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dee_zee:
what do you mean "sleep mode"... means when cell screen is locked?

I just called my cell from office, cell phone responses after two rings(from office phone), then another 3 rings(from office) to enter the voice mail mode.

Update: I just noticed I have the same problem after flashed....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Sleep mode is a couple minutes after screen goes off, phone not connected to USB or charger. All I know is while I am in sleep mode my calls do not come through. This is something that started around the time I flashes that modem.bin I bet many others are having the same issue but just don't know it yet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ptfdmedic:
The modem.bin isn't bad it's just an older build. The modem. Zip should probably be pulled so that this doesn't continue to spread. We're screwed until we get an official tar. Then the modem can be updated. The OTA probably won't fix it cause the upgrade path is EG30 to whatever the new build is.

We'll have to odin the modem. Bin most likely. Mine works fine. Occasional problems but not much. We just need the tar.....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
I was going to suggest using the modem.bin from this thread, which I thought was EG30:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1284602

But then I downloaded the one from the sticky, ran a checksum and discovered both came out the same. This is the same one on ACS. So apparently all the modem.bin's are EG12?

MD5: 7725e312721878079db180407e9364c1
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
You have the EG30 modem.bin?

If you have the EG12 try something, make sure nothing is running then manually turn off screen. Wait about 2 minutes then call your device....

if it happens to ring, try it again. Mine will ring sometimes, it will ring about a half a ring before the caller gets shot to voicemail.

This is the one I used, it is RG12. If you look around the forum people are noticing they are not getting call while screen is off. If it isnt this modem.bin then what can it be? Going back to stock does not resolve the issue either. I had my device 3 weeks now and this started arounf the time I odin'd the modem.bin as someone claimed it as a fix for LOS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ptfdmedic:
I have the EG12. I have experienced that a few times but rarely. I've been on this modem since week one. I just didn't realize it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] IA-32e:
My old Android's alarm wouldn't go off if the clock was set to below 400Mhz. Definitely try setting the clock higher and see if that works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Tried all kernels, higher clocks, everything in the book, lol. Could just be a defective device, but I am leaning towards the modem.bin. Only because all was well beforehand.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dee_zee:
yes, you are right. I tested couple of times, unless with data cable attached to charger/PC, it won't ring.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I took my phone to sprint this morning because I hadn't put 2 and 2 together yet. They ordered me a new one (backordered too!). However if we can get the EG30 somehow I will just cancel the replacement. Anybody with EG30 and the knowledge care to pull it for us?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iconpro:
I agree with Cordell12, i think its the modem.bin file that is causing our phone to not ring while idle/sleep mode without being connected to a computer/charger. Mine started happening when i flashed the modem.bin file about a week ago. Sprint service center couldnt figure out the problem when i brought it in, so they're replacing it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Did they order you one? I was told they are backordered :( Might take a few days...

Back to topic

I just read that modem.bin is on a partition that we can't access. we can flash to it but not pull from it. I was looking for adb pull /sdcard/modem.bin type command when I found that posted in a another forum. Not sure how true it is, but if so this sucks! That modem.bin needs to be pulled from downloading. I pm'd OP in a thread where it is posted so well see.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
If there is a way to pull it from a none rooted device (since I'm not rooted atm and I have EG30) let me know and I'll see what I can do about pulling it for devs.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I messaged k0nane and asked the same question. I tried "adb shell pull modem.bin /sdcard/modem.bin" I get a error "pull not found" :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
check post 3 i did try and pull the modem.bin from an eg30 device and get the proper size modem.bin file but it comes out unusable. believe samsung has somehow prevented us from pulling a working copy unless i'm doing it wrong.

may just be a matter of waiting until an update is released.

i tried

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/backup/modem.bin"

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/backup/modem.bin bs=4096"

adb shell su -c "dd if=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8 of=/sdcard/backup/modem.bin bs=720896"

in all cases i get a 16mb modem.bin file that looks good but gives version unknown and no signal

maybe its possible to trick kies into thinking either our devices have an upgrade available and installing it or maybe trick it into recovering a bad flash? may be as simple as changing the registry setting in windows even but.....???

or maybe a sprint/samsung employee has access and will leak us one (hey i can hope can't i)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I dont think you were doing it wrong, I read on SDXdevelopers that we can not pull the modem, but flash to the modem, partition that is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
that would make sense

thought it was odd how partition flag for modem partition is set to 0=UNASSIGNED

then our only real hope would be to wait on the first released modem update or a leak from sammy/sprint.

of course we could also hope there is a magician out there that could pull it somehow but from what i see thats unlikely.

hope i'm wrong and someone is a genius.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Is your device not ringing while its sleeping? Try something will you, clear memory/ram then manually turn screen off. Wait about 2 minutes and call your device from another line. A couple of us who flashed this EG12 have devices that do not ring while sleeping, pretty sure its due to this EG12 modem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
mine seems to wake itself and ring. even after clearing memory.

was testing this last night also.

sometimes it takes a few rings before my screen show up though.

tried on both stock eg30 system and kernel

and starburst 1.7 with latest lost stable (not experimental)

so no over/underclock in either case.

i wonder i'm not currently in a 4g area does this continue to happen on both 3g and 4g for y'all?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Both areas, 3g at the house and 4g at sprint store. I have tried every rom/kernel combo I can put together to fix this issue, lol. My wife was pissed cause I was messing with phone/pc from the minute I got home to the morning hours! Glad your not effected like some of us seem to be, I just dont see any other cause of this though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
yea i have no doubt the eg12 modem.bin could be causing issues. just curious if it's just the modem.bin by itself or some combination of factors. either way i would still feel better with the proper eg30 modem :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dee_zee:
+1 on this.

I have no double the EG12 modem.bin version caused the wake-up on sleep issue(while not charging).

this wake-up on sleep and LoS(Loss of Service or Loss of Signal) are different issues, completely unrelated. I think EG12 modem caused the wake-up issues, the original samsung software caused the "LoS Known issue"(based on Sprint).

I remembered when I first got my phone on 9/27/2011, unrooted, I had LoS couples of times(instead of bar signal sign, it was a 0 with the almost horizontal line in it), i have to reboot to get signal back again. back then, it is EG30 modem.bin version. I don't remember I had the wake-up on call issue.

I guess this LoS issues caused by unstable original samsung kernel release.

After I flashed back using bobby323's "pulled" kernal, no more LoS issues(so far, for 4 days), but wake up on call issues comes out...but this time with EG12 modem.bin version.

I also noticed most people have the EG30 don't this wake-up issues. looks from this youtube video, he has EG30 bin(I am a new user, forum won't let me use the outside video links):

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1296348

Since local sprint couldn't resolve the issue, I called samsung, they agreed to let me to send them back. Hope they can fix it(by using the EG30 modem.bin).
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lafester:
call them back and have them just release the damn firmware lol.

pretty sad that we do not have the stock firmware to flash if we need it.

it's just eg12 renamed.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
thanks guys.

i can also doubly confirm that these are the same files.

also just for giggles flashed my phone with a edited .bin that forces it to version unknown then the supposed eg30 still comes back as eg12.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I took my device to sprint before I realized what was causing it not to ring while in deep sleep. Anyway, today I received a replacement (new) and I will NOT flash another modem.bin! lol

edit...these EG12 bin need to be taken off the forums, or a warning posted!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
glad to hear you got your problem solved.

agree we need to make it known that all modem.bins at the moment are eg12 and there is no eg30 currently. would say take them all down but some people will actually need the eg12 for any number of reasons.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
I've been using eg12 modem.bin for a month (probably longer, since about a week after release) without any of these issues you guys claim to be having. I wrote a guide to help people fix their phones if they accidentally flash over phone instead of pda on odin here

Look at the dates between the first post and a post that wasn't mine. 24 days. For 24 days people flashed that modem (an EG12 modem) to fix their phones and NO ONE reported ANY problems.

Now you guys claim that the modem.bin causes the phone to sleep and now I'm up to my ass in your rumors and impossible to prove theories.

So much as one of you literally said "don't flash anything from this guide, it could cause problems" with a link coming here. 24 days and no one has any issues, MODEM.BIN EG12 IS FREAKING SAFE AND STABLE. 24 days and over 100 downloads with no complaints means that the modem.bin ain't the problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
Rather than getting huffy and puffy shouldn't we be entertaining the idea that we obviously have some sort of issue, whether its in your posted modem or not, something is bugging out. Perhaps it is a combination of things, one of them being the EG12, I know for a fact that my calls were coming through just fine before the flash on the EG12 modem.bin.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
Oh I'm not denying that there's a problem, I'm telling you for a fact that the dozens of people who've used the modem.bin from my guide (an eg12 modem) have not been experiencing the issues that you guys have been. I don't even mind investigating the problem. What I mind is people going onto my guide (which has been complaint and problem free for over 3 weeks) and telling my users that my guide is causing problems when it isn't. Again, over 20 comments in the last 36-48 hours because of THIS THREAD. With zero comments before this thread. How about taking that into consideration? Dozens of happy users vs a few of you in a Q&A thread.

No logs

No legitimate comparisons

For all we know you have a funky copy of Google Voice installed. Each of the custom roms have their own issues. There's dozens of apps we all use that could've been installed wrong or corrupted somehow. There's dozens of different answers than the modem.bin file. This is considering that I use it and have no problems and none of the people in the IRC channel who've used it have had any problems and no one who's downloaded it from my thread have had any problems.

You could've gotten a bad download. Maybe you should re-download the modem.bin and install it again.

Seriously, dozens of issues and you guys come to this conclusion because you're all running the same modem? You all own the same phone with the same version of gingerbread and touchwiz with at least 20-30 of the same apps. Considering we only have a few roms right now and that one is way more popular than the rest (starburst), there's a chance most of you are running the same damn rom or kernel. You all have a LOT more in common than just the same modem/baseband.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lafester:
Not sure where all this hostility is coming from. If you are saying these 'dozens of people' have all tested and verified that their phones wake up for calls then maybe you have something but I doubt this is the case.

The facts are that several people flashed this modem and now their phones will not wake up for calls. The baseband version has changed and kies says this version cannot be updated. The eg30 modem pulled from phones is identical to the eg12 modem (where did this file come from anyway?).

Obviously there is another piece to this puzzle that needs to be found.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sfhub:
Could someone post the method use to pull the modem from a working phone?

What is the source of the EG12 modem.bin? Did EG12 come from a pre-release ROM or a development phone?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] vikramjatt11:
umm, I flashed the modem.bin from ur guide to fix LOS.

1. I still get LOS

2. I AM having this issue as well now, I am unable to receive phone calls randomly, even when the other phone is RIGHT NEXT TO MY PHONE.

So yes, there is a problem in your .bin
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mjcollum:
AbsolutZeroGI

Firstly we are all extremely appreciative of all the work you have put in for us. Your guide is especially useful in this case.

when i started this thread i had no idea about phones not waking from sleep.

and if people would read the posts for every person that says they have this problem one says they don't.

I for one do not have the problem of the phone not walking. Mine seems to wake for calls just fine. and i flashed the eg12 around oct 1st. so almost a month.

the only reason i started this thread was to see if anyone had access to eg30 so i might be able to return my phone completely stock.

i believe we can resolve this issue without it becoming a huge deal though.

so i will edit my orig post. hopefully people will read that before going farther.

and your right we don't have nearly enough data to condemn the eg12.bin

but i still believe the only reason to install the eg12 is if you somehow manage to flash over the modem partition.

i don't think at this point just in the interest of playing it safe that people should be flashing eg12 for no reason.

out of curiosity (since I do not have this problem) has anyone reported cases of the phone not ringing while on eg30?

If you'd like to redirect anyone with the wake issue back here i'll do my best to sort em out for you. then maybe we can figure out the real culprit.
