Just flash the stock Virgin kernel or garwynn's kernel. You followed this guide for root right? I imagine you flashed a Sprint kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edtrud:
Yea, I fixed it. Found a GB28 ver. And restored it. Works good now. Only thing I cant figure out is that clockworkmod doesnt have an "Official" release for the epic. The recovery that is... any easy way to install it? Without having to do it with odin?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
Stay away from ROM Manager. If you want a custom kernel with a recovery, flash garwynn's Virgin kernel. Agat recovery is based off of clockworkmod recovery.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edtrud:
Something is not Working... I am trying to install a ROM and its giving me a "Status 7' Error

Tried 2 different ROMs same problem. ParanoidAndroid and Cyanonmod
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
The installation of those ROMs is being aborted because the updater-script is not finding a match for the device in the build.prop of your current ROM.

http://mobotechie.com/tips-tricks/h...ailed-error-in-recovery-easily-ultimate-guide

This can actually be a good thing, I'm not familiar with the Virgin variant of the Galaxy S2 but if it is not the SPH-D710 model, these ROMs could potentially brick your device. Not a blue light brick, but a brick in the sense that you will be boot looping at the animation or never booting past the splash screen.

Number one reason is the fact that the kernel for those ROMs is based heavily on the SPH-D710.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edtrud:
Hmm, thats interesting, I got those ROMs from here: http://xdaforums.com/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II/SPH-D710/ROMs

they are for the epic. I read that you first need EL29 before you install the ROM, could that be it?

the Guide: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KWofnXiNmUc
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edtrud:
Yea, that seemed to be the problem, needed to flash EL29, And now works like a charm. CyanogenMod 10.1 its a really clean ROM

one click rooting

I just manually updated to GB27 via usb to my laptop- all went well- now I'd like to root again with the one click- but there are 2 files there on repository- one is the exe file and the other tar ... which do I use for rooting my e4gt? and is there any issues I should be made aware of vs using qbking77 youtube method. ( his method may work= but i'm not seeing same info as he is-

no folder to create- I'm on windows 7- not getting new file option to create...:fingers-crossed:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
The exe is a one click odin package, open the file and click start.

The tar is basically what would be sent out OTA or OTW(Over The Wire) in this case when you use Kies to update the firmware. You need to have Odin then after opening Odin you need to click on PDA then select the rooted no data and then click start.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shortyred:
Anyone notice a gps issue with the one click method?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
The GPS issue has been around for some time.

For some users, using tweaks seems to resolve the issue. For myself and others having persistent GPS connection issues, we've had to resort to using this method:

Download GPS Status from the playstore. Enable GPS, launch the GPS Status app and see if it will acquire on it's own. If not, toggle GPS off/on and check GPS Status again. It may take a couple of tries, at least it does for me. Once it acquires a lock, you should be able to use your GPS app of choice without any more issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Shortyred:
Which gps status is it there are 2? Is it the one by mobiwia or mark pfluger?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tdunham:
I use the one by MobiWIA.

easy root for GB27 without using odin?

Some people assume that their explanation is CLEAR enough to merit leaving out details and other steps inbetween their instructions to easily confuse others.. and then come more questions..How, when, what and where..

So- In an effort to show an example- I havent seen any really easy, well explained methods for rooting the Epic4g Touch ( Sprints version of galaxy SII) . I have seen several posts..but none that struck me as really well explained. ) and always depending on odin( assuming its not mandatory) ( ie - too much summarizing, generalizing, and assuming that everyone else has the same operating system ( windows 8,7,xp, vista etc.) on their home pc which can derail the root attempt, process or worse- brick a phone due to failing in being able follow( missing/confusing) specific and detailed instructions. SO-

If their really is an easy root ( while its still worthwhile ) on this device, lets make it easier- and more fun for those who are able to, or willing to root their samsung phones...the E4GT. ( note) I have about 3 months till I choose a new phone- so I'm leaving my restored to stock GB27 to get some trade in value on this old horse...till the S4 gets into my hands. good luck!:cool:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
In response to your above statement - This is probably one of easiest, well informed (by posts that are easy to locate), helpful sections. Spoon feeding only gets you so far.

We're not here to hold hands.

A Senior Moderator said it best when he said this - (I've linked the post so you can read it in it's entirety.)

XDA is a developers site

XDA is a free forum you are ALLOWED to use. We could make it invite only

XDA is and always will be about the developers. And before you say without the users there would be no XDA, Bull****, who do you think used the stuff before normal people even knew what a smartphone was......wait for it.........other developers. People that could give good feedback with relavent info. Like Logcats and crash messages. Not just "dahhh this is broken, please fix". And even Maybe help fix what is broken.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:
If you're having a hard time understanding maybe rooting isn't for you. The OP is pretty clear and simple to me. I don't think anyone's assuming anything about their explanations but just trying to help direct people on how to root. Maybe only person here assuming is you, you're assuming it's our fault you don't understand what to do :what: :rolleyes:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] E4gt007:
No one is asking to hold any hands here bubba...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] E4gt007:
Panties in a bunch?

Obviously, my suggestions and observations have put some people into an emotional rollercoaster. So why not just go sing kumbayah to your neighbor, hold hands with each other...and take some prozac to calm down. I made no insults to anyone-intentionally- and if you cant take criticism. then go seek a therapist to unravel your emotional reaction to an objective comment. and get off your high horse,:highfive: Boss.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
If you are having trouble understanding the OP that I took time to write and organize to make it easier to understand, then maybe root is not for you. There have been over 15 thousand views on this thread since I first wrote it for early JB leaks and you are the first person that is having trouble with the way it was written.

Yes, this was written assuming you have Windows XP or greater. If you have anything lesser than that, it's time to get out of the stone age and under that rock you've been living under.

There have been many users that have successfully rooted using these three methods that still use these methods to root after restoring back to the original leaked tar file.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
What a way to make your initial suggestion personal after you got feed back that basically said "No one is going to shovel food in your mouth." (In case you didn't get my point the first two times)

But please continue to make it seem that you're being attacked for having an opinion. By all means.. :thumbup:

Have a great day and enjoy the sunlight! I know we are! :D:beer:

Tried to go from AOSP Wild for the Night to Stock GB27 through Odin. Stuck in reboot loop. What gives?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JamesEh408:
Could be a bad cable or bad download?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Salty10is:
Thanks for the reply! The Odin log showed everything going successfully. I'm trying to get everything back to stock. Any ideas for next steps?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JamesEh408:
I've seen Odin tell me that it was successful and then had issues. The culprit was almost always the cable.

Did it finally work for you? Are you back on stock now?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Salty10is:
Not yet, clicking reload on this thread hoping for an idea what to do next. Thinking of flashing rooted EL29 based on the "soft brick" FAQ here: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1953783 Would you do otherwise?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JamesEh408:
You could Odin to el29...if you have issues with that one they another cable or DL. If not you know its a bad DL.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Salty10is:
Tried EL29 with a different cable with same boot loop/soft brick result. Do you have other ideas I can try?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JamesEh408:
Wow what a trip...I have heard something before but never tried yet. While your phone is installing through Odin...unplug the wire in the middle of the process. Then go back into Odin mode and start over.

I have never done this nor am I recommending it, simply stating that I heard someone talking about it before. I guess a boot loop can't get much worse. :P

I am in no way an expert...let me see if I can get someone else to help on this. I am curious.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Salty10is:
Ah ha, figured it out. Followed the troubleshooting section here: http://www.android.gs/update-samsung-epic-4g-touch-official-android-4-1-2-jelly-bean/ and went into recovery and wiped cache and reset to factory then rebooted. Problem solved.

Thanks for lending me a hand! :good:

Problem with 4G & Wifi Constantly turning on

Greetings,

I am trying to trouble shoot a problem that I am having. I have rooted GB27 wit the Agat custom recovery. Somewhere along the way I have ended up with the problem of my 4G and wifi constantly turning on and off. It seems like sometimes when I turn off the wifi that it triggers turning on the 4g. Is there anything that I can do. I had previously conducted a factory reset, but that did not solve the problem. I would appreciate any suggestions.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] RayTrue04:

Can you link me to this kernel? I have the GB28 updated VM as well.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bilgerryan:
Clockwork doesn't have an official one for the E4GT cuz Samsung packaged the recovery with the kernel. Our awesome devs here have done that for us with their custom kernels. DO NOT TRY TO FLASH CLOCKWORK THRU ROM MANAGER YOU WILL BRICK YOUR PHONE.

[Galaxy S II General] pg_ice:
Thats right

this rom is amazing but there is ONE big problem and that is Battery Drain while the phone is in deep sleep!

you allways gets around 80% deep sleep and 20% at 200mhz CPU usage.

i have found what causes it and there is two apps running that eats power.

1: Maps

2: Samsung Push Service

The easiest way is just to do a Force Stop on both then the problem is gone.

but i have not found what settings to use to stop them from running in deep sleep.

maybe someone can figure it out?

i want Google Maps but not Samsung Push Service

just killing Google Maps every time isnt right
[Galaxy S II General] neuropsychosis:
Would autostarts work?

This post was pulled out of my arse.
[Galaxy S II General] anshmiester78900:
Yeah me too facing the same thiing its mostly on 200mhz and the battery is dieing like hell

Edit i used titanium backup and froze both the apps :)
[Galaxy S II General] rickslick:
Hmm my battery life for today kinda idle usage but I tried with power saver mode on no visible decrease in performance too
[Galaxy S II General] GalaxyGusta:
Actually I don't get the Samsung one on mine only maps
[Galaxy S II General] pg_ice:
i have done some more testing but im not 100% sure what causes the drain.

it has nothing to do with Samsung Push Service that for sure.

i use Better Battery Stats instead of CPUSpy to see more details and the only app that woke up the phone was maps.

but only if Google Now was on :)

i think its has something to do with Google Now and "Location and Google search" under Location Services

something bugs it out.

just disable Google Now and untick "Location and Google search" and restart the phone

then you should have your deep sleep at 90% or more

now its cool :)

this is just 2minutes so the % will rise for a longer time..didnt have time to test longer

you should not have any alarm for the MAPS here

i had two of them before

this one is still there but causes no problem

Set Google Now to OFF and untick Location and Google search and restart

i hope they fix this

you shouldnt disable apps to get decent battery life
[Galaxy S II General] Alexanderss:
where is the google now settings to turn it off?
[Galaxy S II General] wicked245:
http://support.google.com/nexus/bin/answer.py?hl=en&answer=2669986
[Galaxy S II General] PantsDownJedi:
I have the push service frozen. I used autostarts on Maps and disabled it every place I found it. Everything location based still works fine, course and fine. The only bad thing is that once you use the Maps app, you have to go and kill it and kill it out of the cache and make sure its done quick enough that it doesn't respawn. I'll be really happy when holding down the back button kills it entirely. It might be worth making a widget for that now that I think of it. Also, as posted, turning off Google Now is needed since it opens Maps (I think; its been a while since I trialled it).
[Galaxy S II General] sergini:
It's a test version, it's for test purposes, if you decide to use it as your daily rom you must accept it's issues.

So, IMO this topic seems useless to me, a new version will be launched in a while.
[Galaxy S II General] neuropsychosis:
Its not worthless. This helps people isolate what causes the drain and perhaps come up with ways to fix it.

This post was pulled out of my arse.
[Galaxy S II General] pg_ice:
nah its the real deal remember
[Galaxy S II General] Gutslit:
new version of this leak?are you saying?;)
[Galaxy S II General] mizuuu:
Have the same problem with deepsleep. I'm using original stock odexed rom and battery drain in deep sleep is around 1% per hour which is too much. On my previous rom I've used - MIUI ICS it was around 1% per 8 hours! This is a big difference and something is wrong with it. What's strange on this situation is that CPU spy shows 99% in deepsleep overnight, therefore there should be no big drain. Has anybody encoutered such problems? Just check the battery level when you go sleep and check in the morning by how many % it droppped... Besides this, the rom is almost perfect. Very smooth and stable.

UPDATE: After turning location services off, the battery in deep sleep is superb. No drain anymore. Not sure if it is because of that but now it works great. The best rom ever, even in beta stage! Looking forward for official.

[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Croak:
It's a personal thing as to how much light bleed you can tolerate, and some light bleed is going to occur on almost any LCD panel.

Good news is, it's not a condition that gets worse (usually) so what you have now is all you'll have. And it sometimes diminishes as the hardware is "broken in" (but don't get your hopes up).

In other words, if you have to go looking for it, chances are you can live with it. If it's not bothering you now, it's not likely to bother you more in the future. If it DOES bother you, RMA it, as it's likely to keep bothering you.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vertron:
That's why.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] byock1:
wow, mine has no light bleed at all. That's pretty bad.
[Nexus 10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeBuck:
As croak says its a very personal thing, and i guess its a matter of how you use it, Personally I use tablets alot whilst travelling, normally overnight, and play movies etc, which means dark surroundings and dark backgrounds which then shows any obvious light bleed and it sticks out.

If you just use it during the day with bright colourful backgrounds etc then as long as the bleed isn't really bad then you'll be fine.

so far i've only found 2 tablets with no light bleed, the Acer A510 and the Sony Xperia Tablet S, unfortunately both had other issues, the the Sony waterproof tablet not being waterproof for example lol.
