Hold down the little pin next to the camera. Also wait for awhile and eventually itll go into download mode. Make sure you keep the battery out when trying to go into download mode.

Also, did you have repartition checked? Only auto reboot should be selected unless your coming from mtd.

DUDE THERES NO BUTTON THERE!!!!!!!?!?@!?!$#%^?

:rolleyes:

To the OP:

Did you try leaving the battery out and having plugged into the back of the desktop *if of course its a desktop* and tried to go into download mode using the pc as its power source? Is it a nonstock cable that you used?. Its more than likely because you didn't have a non-stock cable or yours was bad and need a new one. Odin shouldn't take but 5 minutes top..... mine does it around 3:30 minutes..if it seems like its hangs then redo it pull the plug and start over. Usually factoryfs.rfs takes the longest around 2minutes.

I think he is talking about on the back of the phone it looks like there is a small recessed button under the left of the camera lens

First get a better cable, that's why the data wouldn't transfer. 2nd take out the battery and sd card, with Odin up on the computer connect the New USB cable and quickly put it into download mode and Odin away. At this point include the PIT and check repartition. You will need to put the battery back in after it succeeds and tries to boot. For mor tips sea+ch the Development forum for "How to recover a semi-bricked epic" there is a whole thread on it.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcole2424:
No luck on any of the suggestions above. Phone will not power up at all.

I removed battery and SD card, and plugged into usb cable with Odin open on computer and tried powering up phone into Download Mode (#1 + pwr), nothing (also tried holding #1 + pwr for a couple minutes patiently).

I have had a nightmare trying to find a usb cable and usb port on my computer that work together. No this is not the stock Samsung cable. I am using a cable that has worked for me in the past, but often times a cable/port that works one day won't work the next. So you are probably right in that my original issue getting Odin to download to phone last night may have been a cable problem, however my current problem is simply that the phone seems to be nothing more than a paper weight right now. Just won't power up at all.

And no, I didn't have repartition checked. Phone only had been rooted and CMW, no MTD.

Thank you all for your help, and eagerly awaiting additional suggestions? :o

Umm yeah man bad idea leaving it alone :( looks like its time to visit the morgue.... search online to see if someone will restore a solid brick its possible especialy if you cannt use a jig to get into download mode

There are people who will hook up their pc to the main chip on the phone and restore it that way.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jcole2424:
Pardon my ignorance, I'm learning... But what is a jig?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Its basically a an ohm resister and a usb port you can google it "download mode jig

You can acutally make a homemade one google will find a how to also ;)..... this will "jump" you into DLmode and be able to odin.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] flastnoles11:
Try holding 1 and power button and sliding the battery in and out until download mode boots... it has worked for numerous people in your position...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Yes, exactly this^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

It is like the phone goes into some kind of coma and popping the battery in and out while trying to get into download mode is CPR.

COMPLETELY forgot about that thanks flast ;)

I'm no pro a bringin epics back from the dead but in his condition I believe the phone is completely dead. I've done this to my phone on several different occasions just to get my phone replaced lol. My good friend works for a sprint repair center and he said that most times pulling the usb during odin will kill the device. I'm not tring to be pessamistic as I really hope you fix it but from what your saying then its VERY VERY unlikely! Especially if you hit repartition and then pulled the cord... if you don't belive me then try it and let me know how it goes lol
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] KennyG123:
Probably 4 out of 5 of these bricks caused by a failed Odin have come back to life by popping the battery in and out and trying to get into download mode. I can count the number that I have seen never come back on my hands. Some people give up to soon, others found leaving it overnight and trying again has worked. But a lot have been revived. Also he did not have repartition checked so has an even better chance.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HumanXv2:
When you try to put in download mode without the battery are you holding the buttons down while plugging the cable in? If not then do it that way

Man this sucks if any of the aforementioned methods dont work it sounds like you are going to have th make a JTAG to unbrick your phone i found this on the capitvate forums a while back been keeping it around just in case but you can give it a try. i have never had to try any of these methods so if you do let us know how it goes

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?p=15330252#post15330252

if nothing else you can always try to take it to sprint and act like you have no idea what happened and dont mention anything about rooting and take your sd card out cause it contains root files

hope you get this worked out bud :(
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ÜBER™:
Okay then take apart your phone and please take a picture of your non exisitent magical reset button.....there is no button never has been never will be..... people think there is because they usualy left their battery out long enough for the phone to lose charge.

So I read an article about Tribler which is a decentralized bit torrent program. It doesn't use any type of central server but utilizes peoples computers for tracking the torrent.

So my question is, what do you guys think about start using it for sharing the ROMs and such for the phones? With all the big file sharing companies shutting down the sharing function, this could be a good way of quickly share the files. It will be heavy duty at first but the more people that jump on it we could get files out there quickly.

Any way. The website for it is http://tribler.org/ It may just shoot you straight over to the download site. I don't mind utilizing some of my bandwidth to share the files.

Read more about Tribler at their wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tribler
[Vibrant General] ndwgs:
Great Idea... but, would it tie up my slow@ss 3MbpsDwn/1.5MbpsUp net?

:eek:
[Vibrant General] swehes:
You would probably be able to pick how much bandwidth you can dedicate to the upload. All regular bit torrent clients I know of allows for that. So you can say you want to allow for it to use.
[Vibrant General] jamesd86:
I do enough downloading off file lockers(zevera.com ftw) that if I started hosting torrent downloads I'd probably have fbi at the door.
[Vibrant General] supernugget:
Tribler - definately the way to go! I'm in.

Let me know how I can help.

Why not just upload it to pirate bay or something?

Demandarin posted this earlier in answer to a person having WiFi (edit: actually shutdown) issues.

I tried it, removed Chrome app cache, data, and then uninstalled Chrome.

Tried a few SpeedTests outside at WiFi marginal location about 45 feet away from router. (I get almost 11 Mbps inside, 30 feet or so from router.)

With Chrome installed, about 2 Mbps.

Uninstalled Chrome, about 4 Mbps.

How about you?

EDIT: SORRY, I messed up, although the post was by Demandarin, the OP (curly9) of the thread "most recent wifi bluetooth update" actually had a problem about Prime shutting off. Sorry for the confusion.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I'll bet my life that Chrome has no impact on WiFi. Using the Speedtest app is really not the best way to test speeds. Since you're going outside of your home network, there are MANY outside variables that will impact your results, and you are not going to get consistent results.

If you really want to get a true measure of your WiFi, the best thing to do is to download a large file from a PC on your home network to your tablet and watch the speed.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ride525:
Sounds good. Could you outline the steps to "download" a large file from PC to tablet. What software to use, etc., I would guess on tablet to do this?

Thanks for your help.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
You have a few options. I have an FTP server set up on my home PC with free software called "Filezilla." I then use an app called "ANDftp" to connect to it from my tablet and download files. I used a 1 GB movie file and watched the speed.

Another way you can go is to download a free app called "ES Explorer." It gives you a few options to connect to PCs on your network and download files. One of them, SAMBA, is based on basic windows file sharing, so if you enable windows file sharing, you should be able to see your shared folders using ES File Explorer. I'm not sure if that app shows you download speed like ANDftp does though.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I posted that to a wifi issue..lol. maybe i did. I saw people with drain issues or screen wake issues say had problems when they installed chrome. Then they uninstalled chrome n issues went away.rebooting also. While it is very weird n far fetched, too much coincidence with that app just being installed n new issues people were having. And this was even before the latest update came out. I saw someone, I think NYJedi, first post on wondering if chrome was causing issues. If I have the person incorrect, my bust. But it was someone. Then I just followed the trend of people uninstalling it.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MRCANNADY:
Why is Chrome being blamed for everything from Wifi issues, lockups etc?? Too many newbs making threads on this site now, you hear one person state a stupid opinion and then we get hundreds of post claiming the same stupid thing. Chrome is not a Kernel people, its an app, it will not nterfere with yur wifi, its not the cause of lockups(this was happening BEFORE chrome was released) etc. However, I heard that touching the Prime's screen often will cause a buildup of fingerprints..Oh nooo, Asus has really screwed up NOW!!

---------- Post added 11th February 2012 at 12:03 AM ---------- Previous post was 10th February 2012 at 11:58 PM ----------

I am pretty surprised if you did start this rumor, you should know better :eek:

All it takes is one post like that to create a mass hysteria and another 30 threads on the subject. I would personally send you a check for $10.00 if it is confirmed that Chrome has caused these issues. I'm really starting to believe that we are having a surge in first-time android users..while some complaints are justified, others are just mind-boggling!
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] nyijedi:
I did make a post about Chrome in relation to an overnight lockup, but not in relation to WiFi. In my situation, I had had ZERO lockups since installing ICS the first day it was released. I then installed Chrome the day it was released, and that night, I had my first ever lockup, where I woke up and my Prime would not turn on (had to use the reset pinhole). This happened the night before installing the .13 update, so the only thing that changed for me between installing ICS and getting my first and only lockup was the installation of Chrome. Could this have been a coincidence? Sure, but I'm not sure that it was, and I thought it was worth mentioning.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] rand4ll:
An app can cause lockups when being used and if it has background services those can cause wakelocks that will destroy battery life. However I totally agree with you about the wifi issue...lol
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] demandarin:
I didn't start the rumor..lmao I've seen several others post on it before I even said anything about it. The numbers were adding up and too much coincidence with installing app then issues. Then uninstalling then issues go away. I just followed the trend of uninstalling it. Plus a badly coded app or whatever can cause device to act funny so that's nothing new.

Yeah, this was what I saw you say but I've seen several others post similar situations. I wasn't trying to say you started it. I just noticed your post first. Then seen several other people post same thing basically.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] MRCANNADY:
lol! Yes I know, but I was stating that the lockup issue started for most people before Chrome was released. I don't think it would only cause lockup issues for some if the app was not working correctly with ICS ;)

---------- Post added at 12:36 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:33 AM ----------

I think it was just people feeling like "well if he says the cause is *X* than the cause must be *X* because I have that app too. That's like me saying that the google market is causing wifi issues, and everyone agreeing because the have the market installed also :) Please don's scare our new members, we must teach them the ways of the force :)
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] scooper:
But you can't deny the facts that some uninstalled Chrome and the issues they had after installing Chrome went away. Hmm, sound familiar with some OS...Windows? :D
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] Ride525:
Sorry, I confused things a bit...

SORRY, I messed up, although the post was by Demandarin, the OP (curly9) of the thread "most recent wifi bluetooth update" actually had a problem about Prime shutting off. Sorry for the confusion.

Another person also posted (photogf4) also posted positive results.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] kristovaher:
Well..

I have no problems with Chrome on .11 nor do I have any problems with Chrome on my Galaxy Nexus. I've used it as the main browser since it was released on both devices.

Chrome does impact your battery life a little if you use sync, since it has background services related to synchronizing the browser, but the impact is minimal based on my experience so far. When I had WiFi on and the screen off my battery went down 3% in four hours. When I had WiFi off and screen off, the drain was just 1% in four hours. No crashes, no sleep of death issues.

If Chrome causes issues in .13 then it is because of something ASUS did and not something Google has done with Chrome Beta, because it's totally fine for me on .11.

too late now...lmao. people think I started that as a fix for wifi..lmfao

Make sure when you get it you give us specifics like are you LTE or GSM and if you can see how it fits with the extended battery (if you are lte.)

Fits perfect. It'll fit both the GSM and LTE models.

Just buy the case. I have had mine for 3 days now and I think it is the best case I've had. Real quality feel with good protection. And the strap makes it so easy to get the phone out of the case.

I have a Sena Ultraslim as well, but the Crumena is much better! The only thing is that it is a little bit wider compared to the Ultraslim, so the phone will feel a little larger. But I dont mind, the overall feel is really good. Smells fresh leather too =)

In the official site of SGP Crumena I read that there is a magnet in the pouch. What is it for? Could a magnet near a smartphone damage it?

its a small magnet to stick that small clip onto the case, which is used to pull the phone out. not a very strong magnet, dont think it will cause any problems

Black certainly looks sweet, I noticed that you insert the phone the other way around, any reason? Other than easier access to USB and head phone jack

Can you take a picture of the inside of the case? I am interested in how the release mechanism works. Thanks!

that is the normal way, so that wen u pull the tab you can quickly check for led notifications and like you said, charge the phone while it is in the case.

sure, taken with nexus camera this time lol:
