[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Yup

The most reputable groups that offer jtag advertise it as a debricking service or unbricking. Its not impossible to brick the epic, its just a brick isn't something one can't recover from :-)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Oh its possible, albeit very very unlikely.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
I thought you can use the usb dongle?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Dchibro:
USB jigs don't do squat if you repartition your phone with the wrong PIT file, or flash your bootloader with something like, say uummm, the leaked ICS TAR file for the I9100.

This phone CAN be "bricked", it's just not overly easy to do.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Never forget about people suffering from temporary, or permanent, loss of common sense.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Ah okay, well I remember them saying that someone found a way to make it so the vibrant could never be bricked and they were working on making it work with all devices
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
Yea still won't help us ..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
The unbrickable mod. I remember that from the Epic forum. There have been several people that have gotten to the point of jtag or bust. Things are happening so fast lately but it happened to a friend of mine who knows what he's doing so it can absolutely happen to those who ask "what is Odin?" Or say "OK I can't wait to flash this tar in recovery!" I am just hanging back and trying to keep those who are flashing everything on the right path
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] parkslope:
I agree. I don't know why anyone would complain about this. Each build means one step closer to official release.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
It's not so much complaining as it's every 2 days new RDF which is good that shows work is being done. But not every release needs to be leaked I think is what some of us are saying. These are still Alpha builds pretty much it's nice to see work being done but we don't need every single one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
Who ever posts the next leak create a new ID..I'm thinking Bubby324 would be a good one to post it from ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Blasphemy!

We do need every single build leaked!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
I'm still trying to figure out the diff between 17 & 21 ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
Why did you make this thread? There's already one that keeps us up to date, maybe not as fast but we have a thread by kc_exactly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Qwallace70129:
Same here...

sent from either my E4GT or my OG Epic...either way I'm on CM9
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
21-17= 4

duhhhhh
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
Feels smoother to me. And I think they fixed the wacky signal bar issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
Well I for 1 wouldn't of known if it got buried in the fb21 thread. If anything that's the one to go

Ahh nevermind it was updated late
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
Smoother could be placebo effect. Still lags compared to el 29. Bars are fine, just less of them now. I think that's the catch with the bars
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] HaiKaiDo:
Thats incorrect. theres currently and issue with clockwork mod (specially the touch variant it seems) that fails to wipe or completely wipe the data partition and upon rebooting the phone is completely bricked to the point where not only does the usb jig not work but the only course of action is a jtag. someone else probably stated this as well, but i figured id say it again so more people know about the CWM issue (whatever it may be)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
Could be why it gives me no issues since I flash caluk wipe all et4g before I do the manual wipes. When I first went to fb9 I used tcwm to make nandroid and flash fb9 today I used ROM manager to boot into recovery to make a nandroid then flashed back into my tcwm made nandroid to get my GPS lock then flashed back. Which by the way actually fixed my gps. My phone is fine thank God. Maybe it's the zip that wipes it clean not sure!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
And just to make it more clear the issue from reading more about it seams to happen to the people that use the TEMP touch recovery. People that have used something like the Hitman version that Steady put together have had about Zero issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
That's what I've been saying it's the touch recovery stuff. Cwm, ROM manager boot into recovery work fine. Yet I get yelled at when I suggest it. I read the bricked thread forward and backward
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] locoboi187:
I'm sorry about my comment before to the OP. Out of it lately
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Its not the touch recovery but the TEMP touch recovery that is flashed on top of the ICS kernel. That is what causes the problem.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] T.C.P:
actually. I believe it is the touch temp recovery, cause i use rom manager, and flash sgs2 recovery when im testing new cm9, or ics, or miuiv4 builds, and never messed up on me
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smtolman:
LOL

I'm loving how everyone is complaining about how unstable these ROMs are, when im running the blended dark ICS FB21 by mijj as a DD with an el29 modem with NO problems. CWM is working fine for me. enjoy your TW GB tho, ill be over here eatin up the ice cream :cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
The clarification on the temp Touch Recovery is important info. I hope I thanked everyone accordingly
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SuperSwagSauce:
You're one of the few. Don't be rude please..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] digweed4me:

Hahaha how is the battery life?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
That's what I said TCP. U.might have read my post wrong.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Specialksg1:
Lol I know you have good reasons and all. And I'm not questioning those reasons ... But how many test builds are you sitting on right now??? What I wouldn't give for twenty minutes with your hard drive!! Lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AwesomeTurtle:
I laughed and then farted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TX2000:
That is why when I jump from gb to ics and back I always Odin
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] smoothone:
He's right though. Most people here are clueless and don't know what they are doing and I also get SICK of reading all these ridiculous complaints. I had no problems except for the obvious well documented bugs that the ICS leaks have. They are easily a daily for most users.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
No reason not to be a daily working 100% feature wise. Just some lag, occasional fc, and less than stellar battery life
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cidica:
While that is true for some it's not always true for others. Granted I had very little problems with the builds but in the end I'd rather have GB for right now as other problems are being worked out. As for flashing though I've never really had ANY problems flashing ICS builds but I'm one to actually read for a few minutes first vs jumping head strong into things.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
I had cam issues, exchange calendar issues, and GPS issues, but I was able to fix them all thx to other members and google of course.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] satur9ine:
So is there any hope for FB24 to be released to the masses?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Aganar:
So I've been considering rooting my phone, but have been hesitant since we might be getting an ICS OTA update any week now. I was hoping to allay some of these fears by backing up the device before rooting...only to discover that it seems every backup app requires root. This is a lovely little catch 22 that makes me all the more hesitant to root.

Are there any other options?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Roman Otterstedt:
Well, I think that titanium backup not need the root. (I didnt remember exactly because when I installed it my phone had been rooted before).

You can backup data, settings, app, etc, etc, etc.

There are some phones that have an app that makes backups.

Why dont you try to root your phone? There are a lot of incredibles things that you can do having it rooted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ja5oN:
Titanium backup definitely requires root...

Are you looking to strictly back-up your apps, or something like a nandroid backup?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gharlane00:
Removing root from an otherwise fully stock install is very simple. Root then do a full Nandroid backup and then do whatever you want. If you want to get the OTA at some point simply restore the Nandroid then unroot and you are good to go.

Within a day of the OTA coming out there will be a rooted stock ROM available anyway so not really sure what the issue is.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
Mybackup works without root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] skandranon314:
I surely wouldn't count on a ics ota anytime soon. Coming from the og epic I can tell you for sure that sprint + Samsung = don't hold your breath for a ota, even if it has been promised. Go ahead and root. Add has been stated mybackup will work without root. I suggest trying calks ROM, rock solid stable and great battery life.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
doesn't sfhub have an autoroot package for el29 that preserves data?and its not the root that makes ota fail. its the addition of cwm in the kernel as ota needs stock recovery to update. what you could do is use the auto root and backup using titanium backup. then if you want a nandroid also you can flash a rogue kernel. like gunslinger. nandroid. then flash the stock kernel from calkulins thread that has the el29 rom in it. not his normal one. I will link to it when I get home

here is the place you can grab an el29 stock kernel with no clockworkmod.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1429243

here is where you will find an autoroot for your rom. choose the one that preserves data.

You need to boot into TWRP and #1 you could try factory reset. Or #2 you could restore your system restore point and redownload and flash again.
[LG Optimus 2x] Scougar:
OK, so far in an attempt to get a better signal in my office, I have bought two different external antenna types to get a signal. I bought them as I wasn't sure what the heck the connector type is. (For those that don't know, there is an external antenna connector directly below the MicroSD slot, covered by a black sticker).

I have bought an MMCX aerial: Does not fit, connector too small

I have bought an Motorola V3i antenna as the connectors look the same: But it's too short to reach into the port on the O2X :-( I cannot find out what this connector type is however!

So... next I was going to try a CRC-9 antenna for it... but it's getting expensive lol. So.. does anyone know for SURE what the connector type is I need please?
[LG Optimus 2x] TrymHansen:
I'd think your best bet is to take a close look at the service manual
[LG Optimus 2x] Scougar:
Downloading. Its the same connector with the tapered insulator as the V3i and the TG01. I just can't find the name of the connector to get something that will fit it!

Right, after looking at the manual, I believe it to be an MS-156 series connector of some description (It's listed at MS-156C). (see page 239 in the service manual). See here for a description: h t t p://www.digikey.com/Web%20Export/Supplier%20Content/Hirose_26/PDF/hirose-MS156C07018W.pdf?redirected=1

It's likely just a test connector, but if I can use it for an external antenna like on the V3i, that would be fantastic.

EDIT: here is a very good reference: h t t p://www.hirose.co.jp/cataloge_hp/e35801678.pdf

The adaptors are massive though as it's intended as a test terminal, which is odd that they made an official external aerial for the Moto V3i with this connector in that case.

The most readily available adaptor is at least £24 euro's from a spanish website. What I might do is order a CRC9 connector, and see if I can file down the ends, to expose the centre wire and get that to fit.
[LG Optimus 2x] Thorbear:
this was really interesting to read (as i'm thinking about doing the same thing)

hope you find a good solution!
[LG Optimus 2x] Scougar:
I get paid soon, so I'll order the CRC9 pigtail as an experiment to see if I can get it to fit. £24 (Plus whatever they want to deliver to the UK) is a lot to pay for a tiny cable, so if I can find a much cheaper method I'll give it a go :-)

Once I found out the connector was MS-156, you can see loads of posts on different forums of people who have gone through exactly the same process as me lol. Annoyingly, they never update their posts to say what happened :(

[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Hello, I am s-on (by accident) and hboot 1.23 and i cant flash any new firmware so no ics for me. The only solution is for revolutionary to support it which it doesn't. Could ANYBODY please tell me if there are any plans whatsoever that revolutionary will be updated? Sorry is this offends the devs of it, i'm not purposefully asking for an ETA, i'm just desperate:(.
[HTC Sensation] xdviper:
Why don't you use htcdev.com?
[HTC Sensation] Akatosh:
Because that doesn't give s-off it only unlocks the bootloader.
[HTC Sensation] fr0zenblood75:
I'd like to know this too for when the update comes.
[HTC Sensation] V1k70r:
Why don't you just use an official Gingerbread RUU? It downgrades the bootloader to 1.18 on which you can use Revolutionary.
[HTC Sensation] matt95:
They won't... I am sure of this... They haven't got any reason to upgrade... They have s-offed yet so no more work for them here
[HTC Sensation] MrCheesecake:
I do think they'll add support for the new hboot when they can, especially since alot of sensations will upgrade ota or possibly come with the new hboot out of the box in the future.
[HTC Sensation] Jonny:
We have an S-OFF 1.27.1100 hboot so that sort of proves that they are updating it doesn't it? ;)
[HTC Sensation] MrCheesecake:
For some reason when I updated to the leaked ICS RUU I was still unlocked and S-off, whereas my girlfriends phone went back to being locked, though still S-off. Both with Hboot 1.27.0000. A bit off topic I know, but I can't figure out why... :confused:

Just flash any firmware package like mike1986's or baadnewz's ones from the respective threads and it will give you both the unlocked bootloader

I use google for my contacts as well. The only issue is the contact photos are low rez and blurry. This has been true since Android was out. Seems to be an Android bug they are not willing to fix. I'm not sure if ICS fixes this.

google

google is very reliable in my experience. i have changed roms three to four times in a day before, and my contacts restore completely every time, and fast, too. i would say stick with google as it is the easiest and requires no third party apps or services to be installed. simply sign in, and BOOM
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ninja_rancher:
I recently took the the plunge and flashed my first non-stock ROM. Went with turl's CM9 Kang (v8). I noticed that the mounts are different than stock in regards to the internal storage and my external card. I understand that using emmc for internal and sdcard for external is more "proper", but it now appears that every app that wants to write data is writing out to my external card. Presumably because /mnt/sdcard was the internal storage on stock, but now is not. I noticed a setting under Storage->Storage Configuration called 'Use internal storage'. I found some mention of it in the dev thread, but would like to know what this does. Does it simply flip the mounts so that apps will write data to the internal storage? I would have liked to have just my music, videos, documents, etc. on the external and all the app data internal...otherwise that 11GB is pretty much going to waste? And, yes, I could just try changing the setting (currently off) and rebooting, but I'm not really interested in my apps resetting all their external data again. Looking for enlightenment. As always, thanks in advance.
