[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdisanza:
Reinstall Samsung Kies to your laptop or pc so the proper drivers are re-installed. Once complete with that install, plug your phone into the pc and put the phone into USB mode, hopefully the pc will recognize your phone and install the NEW DEVICE drivers after a few moments. Depending on your pc, sometimes it takes many seconds for your pc to recognize and bring up the drop down menu for the newly recognized drive. BE PATIENT. If the pc does recognize your phone, start Odin again. If Odin also see's your phone, which it now should, you should see a COM:# connection in the ID:COM box of Odin. Doesn't matter what COM # is, as long as something is there. You can now use Odin because it see's your phone. Once you start Odin flashing, make sure not to disconnect anything until you see the upper left GREEN PASS box in Odin. Once its GREEN with PASS in that box, you're finished. You can d/c your phone from the pc and the phone is probably rebooting anyway.

OFC, if your phone will not stay power'd up, all of the above is for nought. Wish I could be more helpful.

Keep in mind that I do not intend to insult intelligence but everyone has limits in experience and I always try to explain in the simplest way I can. No disrespect intended.

Good Luck!

Thanks for the reply,

How am i supposed to put the phone in usb mode when i cant boot it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdisanza:
That does create a problem, I would do some research on a USB Jig for your phone. Search at eBay for: Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch USB Jig

I'm not sure if this will help a phone that will not power up but it does have its uses for Root'd phone especially using Odin to flash and to remover that nasty YELLOW Triangle that comes from ROOT ROMS that are unsign'd.

Wish I could help you further.

Try to put in download mode if not try a jig ... If that fails it's sprint or jtag
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scribes:
It does power on, basically shows the sgs boot logo (black backgroud w/ white text) then goes dark, but its actually still on cause it gets hot.

I can get it into download mode and i can get it into the android recovery.

Theres gotta be a way to recover with an update.zip from the android recovery via the sd card........
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdisanza:
There you go, you have two of us saying about the same thing. Just make sure you get the correct JIG if you go that route. It's like $2.00 and arrives from China in like 2 weeks.

humm, an idling phone shouldn't get hot. That tells me you've got something going on. I think you just progress'd passed my pay grade my friend.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scribes:
Heres another thing, as i mentioned in my first post.

The boot logo says i-9100....

and this is a sprint phone, isnt it a d710?

So im gussing in my late night haze i screwed myself by loading an i9100 rom/bootloader/whatever the hell that is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdisanza:
Samsung calls it: I9100

Sprint calls it: SPH710

We call it: Epic 4G Touch
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scribes:
I see, so thats not the problem?

Im just gonna keep posting here while i mess with this incase i trigger someones mind for a fix.

(picture was here apparently i cannot post an external link yet. Was just a picture of device manager and odin sitting at SetupConnection)

The only way to get odin to see my phone, is if i open odin, put phone in download mode, plug phone in, then uninstall the com port via device manager, reinstall it. When i rescan for hardware changes, odin goes yellow as seen in the picture, i click start, then it sits at SetupConnection all day, so im guessing its losing the connection after it finds it.

My only solution here is via usb card i think, but i cant find a signed package. Cant someone just pull theirs from a stock phone? Why wouldnt that work?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdisanza:
Well, if you can get Odin to work, unroot to full stock with this:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scribes:
Right, getting odin to work is the real problem though i think.

Stuck at SetupConnection forever

This is super frustrating... going without a phone is impossible, work emails, texts, calls, ahhhh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scribes:
..and there is no way to completely reload the entire phone using an update.zip off the sd card, one that is signed?

I know i used to do that on my droid, and all though i know this is a totally different game, i still have android recovery, one would think it would be possible if the package was signed. unsigned ones just fail, but at least i can attempt to run them from there.

If someone can find a way to do that, and it works for my phone, i will paypal $50
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rdisanza:
Let me see what I can find for ya....

I have searched two different Forums for a flashable unroot to stock with NO luck. Everything I found requires Odin. Sorry Buddy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
Correct me if I'm wrong but isn't the i-9100 a whole different phone??? Looking at the specs and release date I would believe so. Sounds like he did an ics update for a phone that wasn't the Sph-d710 or something..

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
Have you tried just flashing a kernel only in Odin
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
You tried flashing ICS on your phone, didn't you? B/C I'm pretty sure that's why you are seeing I9100 while booting up. If that is the case, do a search here as there are multiple people who have done this, and none of them have been able to fix it.

Sorry, your only solution is exchange at Sprint if you can, or JTAG.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
help

does not mean he flashed ICS when you odin a kernel that is not signed ie with CWM you will get yellow triangle and it will say i9100 too ..... so does not mean he flashed ics ... if odin sees the phone on a com port he probably didnt .... try flashing a working kernel from our phone
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Scribes:
I did attempt to flash ICS. I could find where i got it, but it was supposedly for the Epic 4G touch, aka sprint sgs2 variant.

I am a network and systems admin, i should have known better. I jumped the gun and got ahead of myself. I have rooted and put roms on the og droid, and the droid x, samsung is a different beast all together.

However, i went in to sprint the day after i did this, they looked at it, no insurance, no replacement warranty, they didnt ask me anything, and THEY determined it was a factory defect :rolleyes: , they had me sign a sheet that said "After researching found phone to be a factory defect and the solution from SPRINT is to replace the phone. $37.41, and 22 hours later i had a brand new SGS2 in my hand.

They hadnt sent my phone in yet. I honestly am not sure if they are going to be able to tell if i did anything to it or not, i may have just hosed the bootloader enough that odin wont connect, so they probably will have to use something like jtag in house to reflash it, or replace the chip or whatever they do. Even so, if they do see that i was messing with it, and say it voided my warranty, i have a signed receipt showing my payment and agreeing to pay for the replacement at $37.41, and that THEY determined the flaw. My brother in law is a lawyer, so i asked him, because i was curious if they would look at my phone at the service center or hub or whatever, and determine it was my fault. He assured me they could try, but it would all fall back to the employee who had me sign the agreement, so even if they dont like what i did, they are beyond doing anything about it.

I doubt they will even notice it, im sure they will try to boot it, then just flash it or however they do it.

Either way, im not worried anymore.

So...someone wanna point my idiot ass to an actual good rom, with a good method, that works for my phone? lol. I cant stand touchwiz, huge icons and cant replace them ....wtf is that all about.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Epix4G:
no ICS

THERE IS NO ICS LEAK OR ANYTHING SO FAR FOR THIS PHONE ..... they have a pulled one they are working on but nothing leaked ... You can flash the one for SGS2 but it will brick your phone as like 30 people on here will testify .... please be careful people only roms on our dev area
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] beezar:
ok, you're right, forgot about that. I used odin all of one time, then now just use exclusively CWM due to the bad stories I see here with people messing things up with Odin.

To OP: glad you got it worked out

FLASH AT YOUR OWN RISK

Here is a full ROM that can be installed through CWM (or Rogue Recovery) of the IML77. I took a system dump of my install and deodexed and rooted. Flash at your own risk. I'm not responsible if this breaks your system. I did test this on my own Xoom. I flashed back to stock after already being on ICS then installed the ROM. You'll most likely have to clear your data/cache. This rom will also update your bootloader.

Update: 1/21/2012

Edit: I believe I've fixed the issue with root. I've tested it several times and each time root is working for me. With the version of SuperUser that's on it you may not get prompted when an app is requesting root. Not really sure why it doesn't.

You should not have to revert back to stock.

[Xoom Android Development] ashwanikoul:
can it be installed to MZ601

and if through cmw then how to do it,

place it as update.zip or install as we do eos or cm9kang

can it be installed via sd card
[Xoom Android Development] razorbladex401:
Updated package....root is working and package will update your bootloader. No need to install any of the gapp's packages that are floating around. I've only tested this on the US version of the Xoom. Make sure you backup your current app's or rom.
[Xoom Android Development] soleado2003:
I've installed the first version (without root) and im not able to connect to ad hoc wifi networks. Is there any way to do that?

also i would like to know if i can root it without flashing the new rom.

thank you.

Not sure about ad-hoc but you should be able to root it using the universal root.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
When my phone is fully charged or has 70 or 60% remaining battery it seems to drain as normal, around 2-5% over a 10 hour or so period...

However, I've noticed once the battery decreases below 50% it drains FAST, why?

Anyone else noticed this? Test it for yourselves, monitor the TIME it takes to decrease from 100 to 50% and then from 50% to 0.

Yesterday I forgot my phone in the car whilst going to work. It was turned on however it was sitting all day in the car.

Once I returned from work I was shocked to find the phone would not turn on.

At first I thought there was a problem or some kind of fault. Once I plugged in the charger it started to charge, the battery cut and the phone automatically turned off!

I remember the phone had around 48% battery remaining, no wifi or 3g or data turned on. It was simply idling...

So the question is HOW can the battery drain from 48% to 0% over a 10 hour period without being used???

Should my battery of been ANYTHING over 50% it would only lose a few percent...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] boubou2k:
Same thing for me. (Samsung Galaxy Note N7000 - stock Android 2.3.6)

Battery slowly decreases from 100% to ~50% and then ~2x faster.

I charged the note on my computer and then switched to the charger (at ~60% of charge).

I'm no expert of battery charging etc. but just remembered my iPhone 3GS discharging faster when charged on the computer than with the charger.

If it's the same for the note, some cells could discharge faster because charged on the computer.

Can someone confirm this (or not) ?

How did you charge your phone ?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Anishmirza:
Same thing happnd with me, and charging my phone thru electric charger..
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
So it seems this behaviour happens to several other Note users, why?

It's a problem knowing that having around 50% left in your battery will struggle to make it through the day with little to no use...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] roxxy:
Have you people set the wifi to turn of while the screen is off? This is unnoticeable in the daily use, but increase the batterytime massively. The setting for this is hidden, you have to push menubutton while in the wifi-settings.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Here I thought I was only imagining things about the battery life dropping faster once it has reached 49% or less.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
Haha, nice to know I'm not the ONLY one facing this bug...

I can only hope Ice Cream Sandwich solves this battery drain issue.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
Hmm, i think i have the same problem, but i'm not sure. Will get back to this thread when i've investigated a little bit.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jawiz:
This may be a typical samsung issue.

I remember when i had the spica , the battery percentage lining in kernel was totally wrong. I think its done on purpose so you would feel like you have more battery life. 75 % of the battery drains slow. And the rest 25 super fast. Can be fixed within kernel.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bassarnis:
I believe its just a placebo effect. Battery usage always depends on so many factors its a pain to even consider starting looking for the issue.

Being on stock KK5 not rooted, i cannot report the same. I only see "fast battery drain" at the last 4-5%. If you feel its an issue, could you post the firmware version you are on and the battery stats graph just for reference?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
Placebo or not its something I can definitely feel on my Galaxy Note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] Bassarnis:
When you get the chance, could you post the battery stats graph please? what we should see is a (lets say) 30 degrees angle and at about halfway it gets steeper.

I know its quite hard to demonstrate the issue, but if you lets say use wifi to browse the first 50% in text only sites and then visit youtube for the last 50%, it won't help the test.

A nice way to test it would be to charge it to 100%, then load up a long movie and repeat playing it till the battery is 2-3%. Then post the results.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] JulyDerek:
When the Wifi is disconnected, the 3G scanning will get on. Isn't that defeating the purpose?
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] brooon:
Hey there! :)

I would suggest to load the battery 100%, plug it out, go into recovery and wipe battery stats.

I have to admit that I don´t know exactly what this workaround does, but I read about it in another forum...and it worked for me, my battery status is much more accurate now!

I'm back. I've had the Diagnosis app running for the past hour, and i got some interesting results.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] boubou2k:
---Wiping battery stats does not help---, a full charge automatically causes battery stats reset.

I full charged mine with the electric charger after fully discharging it without turning it on.

This time i didn't notice any change in discharge speed between 100%-50% and 50%-0%.

Last time I charged the phone it was not fully discharged. Charged it from 30% to 50% then 50% to 75% on the computer, and 75% to 100% using electric charger.

It's just a supposition, but maybe doing several partial charges while using the phone makes the battery % information inaccurate (wrong battery stats?).

[Edit]In this case, wiping battery stats should show accurate battery %. [/Edit]
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] jeromepearce:
I had a similar problem, and I think it is to do with some incorrect scaling or measurement.

I was down to 28%, and it seemed to be draining fast even though I was not using it. I rebooted (I love how quick that is after my Arc was so slow). On restart it was at 17% ! The usage graph just did an instant drop.

I also had another occasion where it remained at 100% for 2 1/5 hours of use.

I assume some calibration issues caused the meter to read the battery wrong. I am turning off on the w/e overnight (when I do not need the alarm) to see if a slow (180 mA) charge while off will help. I may even get a decent alarm clock so I can turn the phone off at nights and charge. I spend too much time in the morning checking my email and reading news!
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] EarlZ:
What is more consistent on mine is that when the battery drops to 9% or less the loss is like 1% per ~10-15% and this is with wifi/3g off, phone locked.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
I'm back again. I've had some serious battery drain the last couple of days, but i noticed that Auto Sync was enabled. Once i deactivated it it got much better. Pulled the phone from the charger 9 hours ago and i'm at 90% battery left. I've sent some SMS, a few calls and that's about it, but it doesn't drain while it's in standby now, so i'm happy with it.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kanej2006:
Wait till it drops to 50% and lower then carefully monitor the battery drain with little to no use.

Let us know your results...

My Note had 50% battery a couple of hours ago, has not been used and is already 42%

I doubt it was last another day & if it does it will be in it's 20's...

However, if my Note was anything over 50% it would drain nice and slow...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] smarda7a:
and i thought i was crazy:p

i'm having this problem since i left the CM9 officials

tried PA, Asylum, Liquid, ALBA and Cassie's all the same

vary in battery drain from 100 to 50 but after that like the other guys here

loosing 5% per hour maybe...

before with my normal use(screen time on: 2-2.30 hours/day) i could charge the phone before two days & recharge it again at the same time today

now i need to charge it every day....
