[Galaxy Tab Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] golgofrinch:
Its fixed!

Ok I stayed up to about midnight last night but I got it working. Ill try to explain what I found so that it may help someone else down the road.

Mistakes:

> I tried to flash the ROM with the wrong phone type. I did not select one that worked with I800. * lesson learned

> The battery was almost dead when I tried to do this. I figured it was just copying a couple of files over and I would be fine. Because of my mistake I had no battery to fix it.

> I was plugging it in a non powered USB port on my PC (front one). I plugged it in a back powered plug which gave me enough juice.

> I took it apart and pulled the battery (didnt help)

> Used Odin to do the initial flash. Verizon I800 requires Heimdall.

What I did to fix it:

1. Just by chance I plugged it in a back powered port and it gave it enough power to stay up. Before that I had it sitting on a non-powered USB port and the battery went completely dead. It appeared to be a completely bricked because it would no longer turn on.

2. Once it was charged up enough it then connected to my PC and I heard the USB connect sound (Win 7). That clued me into the fact I could attempt to fix it.

3. jt1134 mentioned to use Heimdall close PC screen. I tried to do that but it gave the libusb -12 error.

4. I used the Unbrick your Verizon Tab guide written by chaos67731 and found that I needed to install the USB driver from Heimdall - "zadig"

5. Zadig did not list the phone as "Android USB device", but there was only 1 device on the USB list from Zadig that I could not account for - listed as generic USB. On a gamble I installed the driver for that; it worked.

6. Once the driver was installed I was able to "Close PC Screen" in Heimdall.

7. I was able to boot it up after this and do a factory wipe and restore within the tab.

8. Working perfectly now.

So lessons learned:

- Not all Tabs use same files be VERY sure you have the exact flash for your phone.

- Do any flashing with a full battery

- No need to pull it apart

- Heimdall is preferred for I800.

Hope this helps someone in the future. Thanks for all the help from the pros here.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhxkinMassacre:
so my upgrade is due in about a month for my og evo and was thinking about this phone because i played with it in a sprint store and really liked it except for the touchwiz part... so just wondering if there are any sense roms on this phone or if its even possible... i know there was one for the nexus s 4g. if not, no big deal because i'll probably be running ics anyway but just curious haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
there are no sense roms for this. and being a longtime user of HTC, I thought I would miss sense as well.

did not. not one bit. I actually prefer TW at this point, far closer to aosp, in most ways, cleaner.

of course there are sense "themes" for alternate launchers you could use, if you really needed it...

and with ICS around the corner, well we'll have CM9, AOKP, MIUI4... plenty of better options than Anything sense based.

and again, frankly, still like running stock ROMs on this phone. after all the crap I heard about how "bad" TW is/was, I expected to change it quick. but TBH I can't understand what they were talking about. clean. responsive, light on resources (compared to sense)... to each his own though, right? ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhxkinMassacre:
alright thanks haha. its just after 2 years sense has kinda made a place for itself in my heart so idk haha. btw any news on the sgsIII? i heard a few rumors but figured this forum would know more about it :) like any news on a release date or a definite shape or look of the phone for sprint? don't want to buy a device and have it already be outdated like 2 months later haha
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingdazy:
LOL, i know what you mean. I gave up on that race. I ended up hesitating on everything, because of reading rumor of "the newest thing, right around the corner". ;) I am just committed to buying a new device every year, find something awesome, run it into the ground. ;-)

and this phone is AWESOME. seriously. fast as ****, brilliant screen, SO much internal storage and RAM, I can't make this phone fail.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PhxkinMassacre:
haha alright. thanks for the info. if nothing else better comes out in a month, this is at the top of my list :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 4redstars:
There is usually never a point to wait but this time there is a case to wait. Sprint well be starting to sell lte phones around midyear that will support their new lte network. Being this close to that there is no reason to grab a Wimax phone.

Formerly Tuffgong4 on xda
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Robbzilla:
What he said. There ate a few nice phones on the horizon that should really compete with the E4GT, plus have LTE
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] drksilenc:
tbh i would wait for an lte phone at this point. this phone is 6 months old now and if the og evo is still kicking i would hold out for an lte one.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ma$etas:
I would wait too if that evo is still good..

This phone is awesome but i would wait for an LTE phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I wouldn't wait for LTE, Sprint is having their own issues with the rollout which was expected to be limited coverage anyhow for the first 1-2 years. 4g might be spotty but in a good area its crazy fast and its my understanding that phones wont have both 4g/wimax and lte. This means that unless you are in a lte area your new lte phone will only really have 3g and wifi. Just get the best phone out when your contract is up. I got this phone last month and believe its the best phone out right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] wase4711:
Agree completely; there is no way there will be much Sprint LTE before the end of this year, and, then, it will only be in their major cities, if at all.

I would jump all over this phone ASAP, since its the best Android phone out there, bar none..and, if you look around, there are some good deals..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jocelyn:
I'd save the upgrade and buy a gently used E4GT for $100 more. I realize there are places that offer the E4GT as an upgrade for less than $200, but that isn't an option for sero users like myself. Anyway lol, I've gone from the og Evo, to the 3vo, to the E4GT just a few days ago, and this thing is Big and Beautiful! I highly recommend switching :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] GReddySetGO:
I came from the OG EVO 4G as well. A world of a difference and I love it! I hadn't been using Sense on my EVO for the last half a year cuz I've been using ADW anyway. There are so many good launchers out there and ICS is awesome in itself, I'm sure you won't miss Sense at all.

This phone is a ton faster than the EVO and the screen is amazing. My EVO would take a few minutes to fully start up, the S2 takes <30 sec. You will love it, I'm sure!

---------- Post added at 02:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:12 PM ----------

+1 on buying privately instead of upgrading if possible...

In the past 4 months I have bought 3 S2's (one I just bought yesterday), all of them I paid $400 max for. And these phones were brand spanking new, still sealed in the box. If you look for a lightly used one, I'm sure you can get one for around the $300 range.

I had a fortunate situation though cuz my EVO broke on my, so Sprint replaced it with a new one. I sold that one on eBay for $260, so my out of pocket expense wasn't too bad. I love not being under contract, plus it leaves you the option should the Sprint network change and something totally awesome comes out and you wanna be locked in again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Yo massacre id recommed the et4g i came from evo too lte is having so many issues rolling out on sprint who knows when it will be ready especially now that the fcc either has or is trying to block lightsquared for the gps interference issues which is gonna do some real damage to sprint both finacially and in their ability to obtain the hardware and support they are gonna need, and with wimax continuing to be supported atleast until 2015 if you are currently in a 4g area you will be able to use it til your up for an upgrade again vs you could wait for lte and it wont be available in your area right away or not at all if lte happens as planned right now it looks like anything other than test markets are being delayed for now

I have been hearing that BS about 4G/LTE for 2 years now...when a customer asks me when it's coming I just state that I have no idea, best plce to stay current with all of that is www dot clear dot com and keep checking the coverage map in your area.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] gedster314:
I would wait for LTE too. I do second buying a used one but good luck finding an E4GT for $100, $200 is more likely. If you want Sense wait for a new HTC phone.

Sammys feel cheaper and are scratch magnets. Appearance wise, I think HTCs hold up better. I'm not a TW fan and I'm not Sense fan either. I like it simple and have used Launcherpro with Fancy Widgets for the sense style clock and the 5 day forecast. Been doing that for all my HTC, LG and Samsung phones. Since I'm now on a an ICS rom, I'm trying Nova Launcher.

The E4GT is the best phone I have owned but it is getting old and the new cycle bigger, badder and faster is about to start. Don't lock yourself into last year's phone with a wasted upgrade.

Just to let you know: The SDHC lets the device also read FAT32 formatted SDXC cards (e.g.64 GB). It even reads more than one partition (I have 2 on my Android) and mounts both of them (32k Cluster size used).

Not sure how well the performance will be when managing data there - but reading a large music collection should be ok :)

I have a question regarding a lost gsm phone. If a phone is reported lost or stolen. Can that person use the phone ? I know they will block the sim but will the phone be blocked too?
[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
They usually block the phone by IMEI so it becomes useless. It's also hard (and illegal) to sell.
[General Questions and Answers] Dataslycer:
if you have sim locked your sim card, they will not be able to use any of your services (calling, texting, data) but they can just take it out and use one of their own sim cards.

Seekdroid has helped me tremendously, an essential app for tracking down and locating people who have booked it down the road with your device while using one hand to hold up their pants
[General Questions and Answers] PakAttack1994:
For the most part, you're screwed. They can just take your sim card out, put theirs in and they can use it. Only GSM carrier I've heard where they can actually block the person from using a lost or stolen phone is T-Mobile.
[General Questions and Answers] Archer:
It depends where you are. In the UK all service providers will block the phone when it's reported missing or stolen.
[General Questions and Answers] nofroyo:
in the usa, tmobile is my carrier
[General Questions and Answers] PakAttack1994:
report it lost and stolen, the next person won't be able to use it on T-Mobile or Simple Mobilicity I think, they can unlock it and use it on AT&T though.

I think OTA will arrive first, but I'm looking more forward to CM9!
[HTC Amaze 4G] Double0EK:
CM9 for me. Although I can't wait for ICS, I can wait for a stable CM9 build. Unless another developers releases a nice ICS Sense build till CM9 becomes a daily driver.
[HTC Amaze 4G] rasstar:
CM9 will probably never become stable and I have not even bothered to root the phone since all I needed it for was tethering. Luckily the phone can be be tethered without the need for root.

Are you just a cynic, or do you have some kind of proof to back your meaningless statement?

I believe we will see an OTA update before we see CM9 for the Amaze. I've been a fan of CM for a while, and hope I'm wrong. Just my 2cents. :D :D
[HTC Amaze 4G] rasstar:
I get tethering without paying. All I had to do was change some apn setting on the phone and use the tether app.

Very interesting. Never had the opportunity to use AOKP before.

Initial impressions for those that are curious:

Rom seems to run pretty smooth. Was cool seeing everything this rom is capable of.

Data and Phone network aren't working atm

GPS also isn't working.

Wifi works, but the browser crashes. I was only able to test by connection to market.

Rom Control (the AOKP specific settings) seems to crash with most settings.

There's some other visual oddities, but nothing severe.

Cm9 and cm7 "customize" the settings app too. Along with 90% of other custom roms. Rom control has nothing to do with the settings app. It is its own app built from the ground up in source.

Aokp has included nova launcher since it was in beta. The developers of the launcher allowed us to include it. Nova launcher is way better then stock. Stock launcher is completely stock ics aosp launcher.

I run every g2x aokp build before you guys even see them. I do clean installs every time. And have never had a problem with settings or launcher apps
