More updates...

Thanks for that addtional info. I will get rid of my version of ODIN 3.09.

So... I am doing all of this on a "practice" phone - one that is spare and not currently connected to Sprint. It appears that what I did may have wiped the /EFS folder and no, I don't think I backed it up. I didn't back up anything on this phone because it was just a practice phone (the kind of mistake you only make once). So, my phone does not display an IMEI (MEID).

Do you think that restoring a stock image and starting over will help me restore my NV_DATA.BIN info? I have another one of these phones (currently active), but I'm guessing that I cannot just steal the NV_DATA.BIN file from that phone and edit the contents to change the IMEI and MAC Address, etc. That would be too easy.

Is there any way to do a new gen of the NV_DATA info? I will try ODIN back to stock tonight when I'm home, but in the mean time if anyone has any suggestions let me know.

This is quite a learning process. I'm getting much more familiar with how these things work now, so that can only be good.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianN_Cols_OH:
New issues - need help with CM 10.1...

OK, I've made progress and learned a lot. Essentially restored the bricked phone by going back to stock. Then, I started my process again.

- Used ODIN to flash rooted kernel with CM 5.0.2.7

- Flashed Cyanogenmod 10.1.3

- Flashed correct Gapps (dated 8/12 I think)

Software great, but modem not working. So, then I found the forum for the NS4G modem patches. I've tried several and I did get one to work. But, the latest version of CM 10.1 has SU built-in. When I do the modem repair, it breaks my SU root.

I've tried the nitest kernal (by the way, I like the TWRP recovery better than CM - it). I've tried several of the modem patches.

Do I need to go back to a certain stable version of CM 10? What order to I need to apply things?

Here's what I have on the phone at the moment. It has SU/root but no modem.

- Android 4.2.2

- 3.0.79-JB42-nitest-nr kernel

- CM 10.1-20130526-NIGHTLY-epicmtd (although I've tried several other builds)

I was sooooooo close. Please help? How do I get my modem working AND keep my SU/root?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
ROM is not dependent on modem. Modem is dependent on kernel patches though.

Be sure you have a compatible kernel for your modem, whether NS4G or Epic modem. Are you using Odin or recovery to flash your modem? I've read in the NS4G modem thread a while ago, that users had to flash the modem multiple times to get it to stick. I'd suggest keep flashing and checking.

Here is SuperSU v1.69 download link. Place on SD card and flash in recovery once you get modem working.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianN_Cols_OH:
Modem issues...

Thanks for the response. Am I wrong, or are there kernel patches that are part of the CM 10.1 install? So, I do understand what you are saying - that the ROM itself shouldn't break the modem. However, I believe there were some kernel patches in the CM install - maybe I'm totally wrong?

When I did have one of the modem patches working, I tried to separately download SuperSU, but it didn't seem to work. I really liked seeing the SU functionality built in to the ROM (it is available right from the settings menu near the developer options). Is it actually part of the kernel or part of the ROM? When it was broken, it was as if I still had root access but couldn't use it because there wasn't an SU manager. So, I don't know that root was broken so much as the SU piece that seems to manage it.

In any event, I suspect you are right about needing ODIN for the modem. So, what file should I flash as the "modem" in ODIN? I think that is the next thing I should try as I was only doing the modem patch via recovery before.

Also, is there a tuturiol somewhere that would help me understand the entire Android file system? I am a developer by trade, but I'm not super-experienced in the Linux (and Unix) realm. I would like to read up on things like

- how the storage is partitioned

- what files are part of the kernal

- what files are part of the modem

- what files are part of the ROM

- what files are part of the recovery platform

I'm guessing I won't find a CONFIG.SYS and AUTOEXEC.BAT - LOL. :)

Thanks so much for replying - I'm still learning and hopefully I'll be able to give back to others once I become an expert. I apologize as I am probably asking questions that have been answered, however I've really poured through several forums and there are so many posts that I may have missed just what I needed. Once I've mastered this phone I may move on to my daughter's GS2 and maybe think about a GS3 or GS4 in the future...
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianN_Cols_OH:
More info...

OK, after some further reading, I believe what I need to try next is to load a new modem.bin file using ODIN. I would use "Phone" (not "PDA").

I think I downloaded 2 different modem versions that hopefully have what I need. I can't check them at the moment, but will try one of those tonight. if you have any suggestions as to which modem to use, please let me know (my kernel version is shown previously).

I also found some good info on the Android file system and I understand a little better how the paritions work for kernel, system, storage, cache...

Also, what is this JB Big Mem fix that I've seen in some of the patches?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianN_Cols_OH:
Modem.bin

Actually, the 2 modem/radio files I have are zip files and there is no modem.bin file inside. What exactly do I flash with ODIN?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Yes, use the Phone slot for flashing the modem.bin.

As for the kernel patches, there are swap files that you can flash in recovery that will use the proper blobs for your preferred modem type. Typically, roms will state in the thread title if they are NS4G or not. Always assume the ROM is Epic modem.

BigMem is for capturing video from the camera app.

Give me about 2 hours. I'll reupload all modem files to my devhost account, located in my signature.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BrianN_Cols_OH:
Thanks!

Great, thanks so much. I will look for the modem files a little later.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nikon120:
Ok, all Epic modems and NS4G modems are reuploaded. I also included the swap files for each. Everything with (Flashable) means to be flashed within recovery. Those swap files are the blob changes I mentioned earlier. This way you can swap modems using recovery, rather than relying on Odin.

Everything in the Odin folder can be placed in the phone slot and flashed as-is. (No need to extract the .bin file from the archive.)

As for the built-in root manager in CM, I'd try reflashing the rom first, and then messing with the modem.
[Moto X Q&A] SensationNation:
Hello. I just ordered a Moto X from Motomaker and am expecting it to arrive Friday. However, I'd like to move some of my app data, like my game progress, from my old phone. My GSII which I am retiring is rooted and I have Titanium Backup. Can I copy and paste the data files from one to another? Also, could Helium work as another method of data transfer? I heard mixed reviews of it working on Motorola devices. I will probably end up rooting it, but I would like to know if I could wait or have to do it right away for TB.

[Nexus 5 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Vincent Law:
All devices throttle. It's just a matter of how hot the devices get in general.

That said, even with some decent gaming I haven't had the phone get terribly hot.

It does throttle in games but not as bad as N4. I play first race in Asphalt 8 fine and the second race half way gets choppy. Seems like need to root and some custom kernel magic.

then installed Carbon,

That sucks for sure, I was having the exact same problem as well. No matter what aosp based rom I used I kept getting the same message. Here is what worked for me, although I have no idea if the first step does anything lol.

1) dl, wipe, and flash a good stock based rom like Optimus v4.6. Update prl/profile and activate phone.

2)now dl, wipe, and flash to the latest nightly of CyanogenMod. At this point you will still get the message. Turn off data. Go into manage apps. Force stop dialer and clear cache and data, then do the same for phone.

Now while still under all app click the menu button and select reset app preferences.

3) do not turn data on yet. Now restart into recovery. Wipe/format cache and delvik.

4) now reboot phone as normal. Let your phone do it thing. You can now turn data back on!

I have no idea why this worked for me nore do I take credit for coming up with this. I can't remember where I found it on-line.

I hope this works for you as well as it did for me.
