[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] yahknow1:
Hey, my E4GT has a couple dings on the body right next to the glass. Judging from the OP's pictures, it looks feasible to replace that part with new? My question, to anyone who may know is: Would it be worth fixing the phone before I sell it? I'm guessing, as it stands now, the phone's in "fair" condition (as Swappa.com would classify) and probably get easy $200. Now if I replaced the body the phone would be worth an EASY $250...Is this a worthwhile thing to do?

Thanks

OK--1st post EVER in a forum, so I feel like I'm gonna get layed into,

but here goes:

Just got Epic Touch two days ago and felt I needed root so I downloaded

and used the EL29 Odin one-click method of flashing the stock rooted ROM.

This was yesterday. No problems. Took 15 minutes. I installed some apps,

then I installed ROM Manager And tried to use it to install CW, but I'm not sure if that was successful, as I tried to do a couple of NAND backups from within the GUI

of ROM Manager and failed both times, going to the stock android recovery screen.

I think I pulled the battery both times.

Then I installed Widget Locker, was playing around with that for a bit, took

a photo and tried to attach it to a text response, then the phone locked while

I was sending that. Pulled battery, wont get past Samsung startup screen.

Looked around a bit, decided to try and reflash using the one-click method.

I get:

<ID:0/006> Added!!

<OSM> Enter CS for MD5..

<OSM> Check MD5.. Do not unplug the cable..

<OSM> Please wait..

<OSM> Checking MD5 finished Sucessfully..

<ID:0/006> Get PIT for mapping..

<ID:0/006> Firmware update start..

<ID:0/006> recovery.bin

every time. BTW, I cannot access anything with VolUP+power buttons.

I've tried different combos of that, always Samsung boot screen hang.

I can get into Odin, and Odin sees my device. but never has the device indicated

that anything is happening. No progress bar.

Also, I have tried the two USB cables that i have in all the ports of my computer,

but I do not have another handy.

So I poked around and found this:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1492771

which suggested I individually flash ROM, kernel, and modem.

none of that has worked, either.

Flashing the modem does get a green progress bar(in Odin, not on the device),

but then it hangs at--

...and a hang.

So....... haven't foud anything else adressing this. Lotta stuff out there about

careless ICS/CWM brickers, but I didn't do anything fancy, did I?

Just stock rooted, 5 hours of use and blammo.

Thanks for the assistance.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
Are you using Kies or the full Samsung driver suite? Also, have you tried (with the phone still unplugged) running the one-click odin on the pc, getting into odin mode on the phone and THEN plugging the phone in?

Edit: If you need them, the samsung drivers are here:

http://org.downloadcenter.samsung.c...342248/Sprint_d710_USB_Driver_v1_3_2360_0.exe

Please remove kies prior to installing them. In any case, you should probably uninstall what you have now and install the driver suite if it's still not working, then reboot the pc and try again. Sometimes the drivers aren't working correctly and require a reinstall.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rocket321:
I was gonna suggest a pc reboot as well, often times that helps when Odin hangs on me.

Once you get recovered I'd suggest not using cwm manager to install a custom recovery, instead get one from these forums which is specifically for the epic touch.

The original epic had a method of reaching download mode with the battery removed, not sure if that's an option here maybe someone can give the procedure.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I think what Rocket meant to say is not use Rom Manager any more.

RE:

I have BOTH installed...but Kies I only installed midway (i.e. this morning)

through troubleshooting. nonetheless i will uninstall/reboot/reinstall/reboot

with these guys. Which is better?

And YES, EVERY time i've tried something with either EL29 oneclick or 1.85 regular Odin, I have always started Odin first, and then plugged the phone in.

If I plug the phone in before putting it in download mode, it just displays an empty battery charging icon, and cannot be turned off except by removing battery.

I HAVE rebooted, several times, though perhaps the driver/drivers are an issue.

I have to go out of town tonight so I'll try some more tomorrow and repost.

Pep talk, though: If it goes into download mode, there's a 99.9 percent chance that I can recover it, right?

Thanks for the replies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
It sounds like you're ok but Kies needs to go, it conflicts with the regular drivers and causes issues using odin. Goood luck and let us know how it goes.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] al_b:
make sure the samsung drivers are on you PC/Laptop. make sure your computer sees your phone. I have read that sometimes trying different USB ports and cables can be helpful as well when using Odin. hope this helps.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iguai:
OK--- uninstalled Kies and reinstalled Samsung drivers and restarted and such.

Tried oneclick and still getting stuck at recovery bin.

Tried all three usb ports.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dante32278:
You're likely bricked. Sorry. Rom Manager has been bad for almost all Samsung phones.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] VECTUS:
Allow your phone to charge for SEVERAL hours.

Follow this guide to the letter: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1274337

Flash this rom which has root: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1703406

If you follow this correctly and your phone does not boot. You are bricked.

Sounds like somehow you reversed the modem or rom and flashed them between the phone and pda (which I hope you didn't because you are bricked if you did... but its good in away because you can take it back and say look what I woke to...).

Let us know if it works...

Edit- and if it does boot, don't ever try to install cwm with rom manager on this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iguai:
No dice. I am, however, going to give it one more try on a friends computer this evening. That's my last throw though, I think, unless I get some fresh inspiration.

I'll report back tomorrow.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iguai:
OK---I gave it everything, and no dice.

This phone was bricked.

I believe using ROMManager to try and install CWM f'd some things,

and perhaps when I was trying to do individual flashes

in Odin I flashed a modem in PDA.

Thanks for all responses.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] davidcv5:
Tried everything and nothing

So I wasn't trying anything crazy with my phone, left it charging, and went to check the time and it was off, tried turning it on and nothing.

I was running CM10 Beta 2... so I went into recovery mode, tried to run do wipe factory reset, wipe dalvik, wipe cache, flash the CM10 again, and it was getting stuck.

Mounted usb on pc and tried to save some files to flash the full tar through odin, in the middle of that copy it failed, so I tried to odin the tar anyway and it was getting stucked.

Tried flashing modem separately - stuck on Wait 2 mintues...

Tried flashing kernel separately - stuck on NAND Write Start!!

Tried flashing rom - stuck

Tried flashing pit file - stuck

Tried one click - stuck

The thing is that I can't just say to samsung service that I didn't do anything to the phone, because when you try to boot in recovery it shows CWM 6..., but only one line, it doesn't really load cwm.

So even if I use a usb jig to reset odin counter, they'll notice I had done some stuff to the phone, even when I wasn't really doing anything when it crashed.

Any new way to fix the phone? I don't have insurance or anything, so I might be pretty much screwed :(

Anything else I could do? Thank you very much!

*WARNING!* I Am Not Responsible For Anything That Happens To Your Phone *WARNING!*

At the beginning I used Odin3 v. 1.85 to flash the T-Mobile ICS 4.0.3 stock ROM, since I had the hang issue I decided to try another method.

Here are what I did to fix the Shutdown/Restart hangs:

0-A backup on the external SD card (Backup all user apps+system data) in Titanium Pro

1-Fully charged the phone

2-Installed the stock ROM T989UVKL1 (Android 2.3.6) through Odin3 v. 1.85

3-Wiped cache & wiped data/factory reset twice in recovery mode

4-Upgraded to stock ROM ICS 4.0.3 via Kies windows version, it took about 30 mins to completed

5-Rooted the SGH-T989

6-A restore missing apps with data via Titanium Pro

I also froze the following apps via Titanium Pro:

411 & More

Asphalt

Blio eBooks

Bonus Apps

My Galaxy SII is connected to SimpleMobile and I have nothing to complain about this new ROM;

vibrates like a 7.3 earthquake, shutdown & restart works without any issue, fast 4G Internet, good radio signal, gps locks quickly, good compass, good battery life, no echo, camera back & front work fine, bluetooth OK, WiFi OK.

100% working.

:)This stock ROM is very good and has a lot of features.[:)

This is labeled as a "HOW TO" post and the last time I checked that was allowed in the "Development" section.

Fixing permissions is not always working with the hang on stock 4.0.3..READ!!

I really wish everyone @ XDA would be more appreciative to the time taken to try and help as a majority of us do NOTHING to contribute!!

To the OP: I'm glad I could give you your first "Thanks" even if your post was meaningless to me. You took your time and gave easy instructions...Thanks for contributing to the community
[T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-T989] Vlad83:
There is nothing new here. This is an elaborate way of posting wipe, flash, repeat. If one were to use the darkside wipe (already a sticky) before flashing there wouldn't be any problems. This is completely unnecessary and waste of time.

Here are the instructions:

1. Darkside wipe

2. (Optional) Flash ICS radio

3. Flash ROM

4. (Optional) Use Darkside cache wipe to wipe cache/dalvic if necessary (do not use recovery)

Spending 5 mins here would result in these findings

[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] dragon57:
The SD card reader for the TF101 works great on the Prime.
[Asus  Eee Pad Transformer Prime] CharliesTheMan:
Yeap the Asus dock is a wonderful card reader, also did you know that the Prime has a built in slot for a micro SD card already? I'm not sure what they're trying to do, but if a micro would work it will be an easy solution.

The transformer prime dock would be a rather big present for someone else, but if it's that kind of someone else, it will change their life. It's a full keyboard with a touchpad mouse, has full size SD card slot and USB slot which allows you to use external drives. It doubles as a case also kind of, it makes the prime fold up like a netbook.

I shoot a Canon DSLR camera that uses an SD card. While I'm out shooting I can take the card out of the camera and view the pics fullsize on the screen and also copy the files from the SD card to my external hard drive which is connected via USB.
[TG01 General] dmnmsc:
Hi everyone. The question is easy:

What's your battery life with 3G/data connection ON?

(I've installed WP Miro's ROM on my Toshiba TG01 and my battery life is about 7-8 hours without so much use and I would like know if this is normal!)

Thanks for your answer!
[TG01 General] gaiolo:
I don´t use my TG01 because of that!
[TG01 General] gaiolo:
Hi,

Last weekend I decide to upgrade my battery.

The candidate: one battery from a Samsung I780.

Some soldering and she works.

Yesterday I have a full working day with no battery problem!

But, better than battery autonomy, was the reliabity: no hangs, no crash, it looks like a "new" phone.
[TG01 General] dmnmsc:
Hey! Samsung I780 battery works on TG01? Correct me if I'm wrong but it's 1480mAh, isn't it? I've Mugen Power 1300mAh and my battery life is about 8-10 hours, no more. With 1480 it works all day?

And... what do you mean with "some soldering"?

Thank you so much!!
[TG01 General] gaiolo:
Hi!

First I don´t use 3G.

I don´t know the capacity of the original I780 battery.

But with "original", and other ebay battery for the TG01 (i think cameron ***** with 1100mAh), the autonomy of the TG01, was a no go for me (car bluethoot; some calls, and emails).

I try soldering the original and the cameron, work for some time, but when the batterys was near 30%, the TG01 don´t work well (sometimes she freezes, only soft reset with power on button).

I reach the conclusion that the cameron, was the problem.

So I try with I780.

Like I reported yesterday, I had on Monday 4:25 of use with 50%.

Tuesday I had 4H35 with 30% (but I made more calls).

Today with 1h00 of use the battery is a 90%.

(I use a cab for that, the name is uptime.cab (if you want to search and install).

4 Emails accounts, with refresh every 1 hour.

With original the battery was dead about 2h00 ....

What you need, for use a I780 battery:

I780 battery; some wire (in my case I use form a old network cable) and a Rubber case (the original case obviously will not fit), and soldering.....

If you want, reply here in some hours, and when I reach home I can share some photos (to remind me).
[TG01 General] dmnmsc:
It would be nice to see some pictures. I'll be waiting!
[TG01 General] gaiolo:
Hi,

Here come some photos (sorry about quality)

Hi!

Thank you for the pictures. This is like Mugen Power 2600mAh Extended Replacement Battery but cheaper :D

If someday I try it, I will tell you!
[TG01 General] gaiolo:
Ok!

Some tip, (sorry about "language problem"); use a flexible wire, and not "hard" like I did.

This weekend, I try the autonomy with 3G and share it next Monday.
