Are you wanting to go back to stock el29 and unroot or what?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] disit:
Yeah trying to get back to stock rom, i just noticed i didn't have samsung kies installed on my pc could this be a reason its getting stuck?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] peanut1596:
Maybe. If Odin recognizes your phone then you should be good. Gimme a sec and I'll find the magical link to solve your issue.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] peanut1596:
Ok. Just do as this thread says and you should be ok.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
I think you can also use sfhub's one-click back to EL29 and use the autoroot tool to unroot.

Lol esoteric beat me to it. But that was my next link.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] disit:
Does that mean just download this http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1342728

and run the uninstall root?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Use the one-click method to get you back to EL29, since you're coming from an ICS ROM back to GB you should use the full rather than the no-data. One you've done that, then download and extract the autoroot tool and follow the prompts to get you to the unrooting. Make sure you have USB debugging turned on before using autoroot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] disit:
I've already tried using odin and the first method i tried is failing, so i can no longer turn the phone on, i can only get in download mode :\
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
When you plug the phone in while in Odin mode, are you getting the yellow highlighted box with COMxx in it to indicate the computer is recognizing your phone?

Another possible path is to pop out your sdcard, put it into the computer and load up some files that can be flashed via recovery (if you have recovery installed) then reinsert the card, hold power and volume up button to boot into recovery and flash a new build that way.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] disit:
I've been trying to use the one click option, my phone is recognized but it won't proceed to completetion, i guess it's bricked. Is there anything i can do?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] peanut1596:
So let me get this straight. You put your phone into Odin/download mode, start the one click, and it fails? Does Odin notice your phone while in Odin/download mode?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
I know this is getting frustrating for you, but have you tried other one-click downloads? EL26 or even any of the ICS ones just to get the phone back on?

I'll see if I can re-route sfhub over here, maybe he knows of something we aren't thinking to try.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] peanut1596:
Idk it sounds like he either had a bad download or possibly didn't put it into Odin mode or something. Just a thought I suppose.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] disit:
Okay thank you, it's recognizing it says [Com3] when i load it up i can't use any mode besides download mode it gives me a software issue if i hold power up and power button
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Okay if it is recognizing your phone then try downloading another one-click and using it, or even re-downloading the same one you already have.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] disit:
So even if my device is bricked it will load this, as long as odin recognizes it?

What's the best GPS app I could use with the EVO LTE? I used sprint nav on my OG Evo, and it sucked most of the time. If I didn't get a good data connection with my phone, it wouldn't work right.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] fifasarajevo:
i personally have always used google nav ....its perfect IMO :D
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kaw900r:
Sprint Navigation

I have the old app and just keep putting it back in. Telenav is garbage and they want money. Sprint Navigation gets me there everytime. Just my 2.5 cent...:cool:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kaos420:
I have copilot. That fc's a feq times. When launched works after that. Also have navigon tbat launches. But freezes when inputting directions. Both need to be updated for ics soon. I use gps daily for work.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] wvufan:
Google navigation is the best for directions with traffic knowledge, but sometimes you need maps/navigation without a data connection (on trip through WV coming across roadblock from accident, alternate routing without connection is important).

For this, I'd recommend getting NavFree USA. It has some interface bugs, but when you need maps and directions without a connection (in preparation for coming zombie apocalypse perhaps), you'll be glad you downloaded. Price (free) well worth keeping your brain safe.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
Sygic is fantastic, offline maps and turn-by-turn navigation. Google Navigation is great if you have a data connection, Sygic frees you up to not rely on the data for longer battery life.

For anything on foot, use Locus Pro. Heck, there's even a navigation feature, but not turn-by-turn.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] lacrossev:
I use Google navigation by default, ans sygic as my backup
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oducks:
I use Google Navigation when I need to get somewhere, for commute traffic I use Waze.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] regulator207:
Google nav

Gonto settings, then labs

Choose precache map area.

Go back to map and choose a selection

In the pop up that presents, there will be an option to cache. Click it.

Google now downloads 10 square miles around that point. I believe this can be used when you are without data connection.

Also, Google maps will have real offline support here in the coming weeks. http://www.theverge.com/2012/6/6/3068113/google-maps-offline-for-android-coming-soon
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] sanmanc:
Google navigation has not failed me yet but I do have data coverage everywhere I've gone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SilverZero:
I don't think that makes Navigation work offline as you still need a connection to calculate the route.

Also, it sounds like Google's "new" offline feature is just making the precache feature that has been in Labs for over a year an official option. It won't enable offline navigation, at least not for route calculation.

I'm still going to give this one to Sygic.

Route 66

This app is great and is getting better. I love that while in your car dock ut uses your camera and outs a car if your choosing to follow on screen. Maps dont always have address im looking for but im sure that will be fixed with an update

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] rooterman:

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Albaholic:
Google Nav works without a data connection if you precache the map area that you will be in before hand. You will need to enable this feature in Labs first.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jjrausch:
Waze
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oducks:
Waze is by far the best for traffic updates, but can go 'round the way on directions at times.

Google Nav for when I really need to get there.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] ArcherMP:
I split my time between Google Nav and Waze.

More and more I find myself using Waze in conjunction with my in dash GPS.

Like previously stated Waze does send you in a round about way at times, but it does learn your route if you travel it a few times.

Waze also has a web map & a really cool map editor for the community. Avoiding the cops and traffic cams are a nice touch.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bitbearmi:
Google Nav just doesn't work in the Metro Detroit area. Large streets have "boulevards" down the middle and left turns are not allowed directly across the boulevard. You need to make a right turn and usually go 1/4 mile or so in the opposite direction to catch a turn-around. These are "affectionately" called "Michigan Left Turns". If you were from out of town and followed its directions, you'd turn left at the light and, at best be lucky, at worst get into a serious accident. Google Nav is the only Nav program that I've tried that doesn't know how to handle the turn-arounds.

I've tried Waze in the past and going to give it another go, but it also messed up directions pretty bad. I was going to the Cracker Barrel in Belleville, MI and it had me get off the freeway what should have been one exit early, drive all the way around Belleville Lake until I connected with the road that was two exits West on I-94. It had me cross back over the freeway, make a right and drive a mile down a side road. With the restaurant about 1/4" from the "correct" exit. A round-about loop that added about 10 miles to the drive that should have only been a one mile drive. Now you may ask why I did that when I knew it was doing something funny. I assumed it routed me that way to avoid construction or an accident or something, but, no... it was just dumb. :(

I'd really love to start trying out my phone to do the GPS thing, but nothing has been as reliable as my TomTom.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] oducks:
Waze is really working on improving their product and making useful additions.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] murf43143:
I agree, Google Maps / Google Nav are horrible when it comes to directions in Michigan due to the "Michigan Left", you would think Google would have taken into consideration how the whole state of Michigan makes turns.

Not only that, Michigan lefts save so much time I can't believe other states have no utilized the mathematics of the "Michigan Left" to save time / gas.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadowcman:
I was running AOKP for over a month and the notification pull down would work while on the lock screen with no problems at all. One day, it just stopped working and I have no idea why. I of course wiped the Dalvik cache and did a full reinstall and it still didn't work. I even switched over to Serendipity 9 and it also doesn't work on that ROM either. I've used the CM9 kernal and Fluxxi and it doesn't work on either. The weird thing is that if I restart my phone, the notification pull down will work ONCE after rebooting then stop working for all attempts after that. If it helps, I do not have my SIM card installed. I don't have any security set for my lockscreen. It's at the default slide unlock. Any ideas?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] MotoMudder77:
Im not on latest, on 6-7 still, and its working.

but it could be a fix from AOKP themselves, it could be a bug, tho I see it as a nice feature.

Or It could just be that you need to full wipe. Funny how you started a thread before doing that.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] shadowcman:
I did several full wipes and reinstalls of AOKP and Serendipity. I believe I solved the issue: The SIM card needs to be in the phone during the first boot and can be taken out after that. So far it's been working for an hour without any problems.

Hi!

With a program (RAM manager) I modified VM heap size to 128M, but now the phone does'nt start. I think there is some problem with the build.prop. CWM recovery working and download mode as well. CWM recovery can not see my external SD card.

If it is possible I don't want to reset the phone, because I need data from internal partition. How can I copy anything to internal partition? Is there a way to upload a correct build.prop via odin?

Thank you!!
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] arian009:
I don't have my S3 on me but someone could upload theirs for you!

Also don't try think but I think if you refalsh the same ROM without clearing data and factory reset nothing would be wiped clean. But not sure. I'm probably worng.

Good luck
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] member68:
Just reflash your ROM without wiping. That'll overwrite the modified build.prop file.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dhham:
amazing! I'm having similar issues myself! I modified build.prop and overwrote it and now the phone will boot to the 'Samsung Galaxy S III' screen and stop.

Does anyone have the OEM ROM? Or at least a nandroid backup of it? I have CWM and recovery working as well just like the OP and it sounds like getting that ROM or nandroid would solve both our problems (sorry for the hijack OP)

*** edit ***

apologies to the OP and the forum, I have the sprint L710 and the i9300 rom won't help ...
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bbyf16:
hi guys, just wanted a general consensus from you guys regarding the galaxy nexus build quality and i'll explain why. I spend a lot of time travelling and do end up staying in places for months at a time. I'm currently planning on going to india for the next 6-8 months and would be travelling in between as well. Now, since samsung doesn't sell the nexus in india, it would not be covered under warranty as well.

I personally haven't used a phone warranty to the best of my memory and as is the human mind, now thats all I can think about. I've been using a blackberry for nearly 12 years and i'm used to reliability and phones that stand up to some abuse and not fail on me. If I was to buy the nexus, would I be looking at anything failing in the first year? is it known to have certain faults etc? And if it does, is it relatively fixable? I have no qualms about opening up a phone and replacing parts if need be, but i'm not going to start soldering things.

So basically, my question is, is the nexus a problem phone (is there anything I should look for when buying the piece), and if its a real pain, should I just get another android phone? and if so, which one? as much as I would like to get the s3, I can't justify spending that much money and I thought of getting the galaxy note but doesn't seem sensible considering the new update is coming out in sept/oct? Basically my requirements are: reliable phone, best user interface with quick os updates (reason for nexus phones), should have nfc, front facing cam, very good pic quality with no shutter lag, preferably already on ICS, and a phone with worldwide warranty as I do travel a lot, and I think most importantly, it should be future proof for the next year (it should run apps with no lag or difficulty, should be able to multi-task, etc) with very good battery life (more than a day).

thanks for the help guys!
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] Mach3.2:
Hmmm, you come to a Galaxy Nexus forum to ask whether to buy a nexus:o

Worldwide warranty, Nexus don't have that.

If you want the front camera to do video calls over UMTS(Not data), the Gnex can't do it, can only use skype or similar programmes.

And to add on, the Nexus have only been released for 5 Months, don't really have any major hardware issues as far as i know.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] codesplice:
What he said. I truly hope you didn't come to the Galaxy Nexus forum hoping to be talked out of buying this fantastic phone.

That said, it is a truly fantastic phone. You can't find a better one for the money right now, though you're not going to find a worldwide warranty.

I got mine as a early fathers day gift and I'm so happy I got it soon. Best phone I have had.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] bbyf16:
Well, any video calls I would be making would be through skype. I figured this would be the best place to see if the phone has any major hardware gripes. :)

I'm currently considering buying the phone from gsmnation for $440 plus an additional $50 for worldwide 1 year warranty.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] theking_13:

[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] zeke1988:
not worth it. Galaxy S3.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] AppsRUs:
Wait for the GS3 to be released so you can better compare the two.

I think it really comes down to a few things:

1. Vanilla Android vs. Skinned (HTC Sense, MotoBlur, TouchWiz)

2. Hardware

3. Individual software features

For a pure Android 4.0 ICS experience, you will get that with the [GSM] version of the phone. The Verizon LTE version (the one I have) has been through a series of 'episodes' that have soured the community a bit. It isn't as powerful as the GSM version, nor do we get updated as much. In fact, Google dropped it from their developer's list a few months back. So with that said, if you're on Verizon I wouldn't bother. Is it a good fun? Its great, but it could have been better had Verizon not tampered with it.

On hardware, the phone is a few months old, but its still pretty impressive for hardware. The GS3 will have some upgrades under the hood, but not by much. My phone is fast and does what it needs to do. Could it be better? Yes, but it works.

Concerning individual software features, I think the GS3 beats the Nexus here. While I am personally not a fan of all the gimmicky features, others find them to be quite impressive. There's definitely more offered on the GS3 in that department, but if you don't care about S-Voice, S-Dial (I think that's what it is called), and some of the other stuff, then the Nexus will do you just fine.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] joshnichols189:
You do not understand the circumstances regarding Google and Verizon. It isn't updated less, it is just updated slower. It isn't less powerful, they have the same specs.
