I had this issue on 32 bit Windows 7 before installing SDK. driver finder looks for drivers and just sits there. click on SDK Setup.exe in the android-sdk-windows folder. I forget exactly how but pretty much follow the prompts and download the SDK platforms and Google APIs and documentation. You pretty much just need the ones related to 2.1 and probably 2.2 and relative APIs but if its easier to get everything then just do that, install it all and when you hook up your Epic it should recognize now, provided USB debugging is enabled on the device.

Hey i have vista and i was using the 64 bit, should i try to use the 32 bit instead... and do you have the site where i could download the proper sdk software because on the one i downloaded i dont see the SDK Setup.exe file that your talking about

Ran this today, once I finally found the darn drivers (if you cant, search this thread for them there are some mirrors) it worked smoothly on the first run.

thanks!

After running the run.bat nothing happens. It just sits there and command prompt doesn't do ****. I installed the drivers properly and everything. Am I missing something?

Can anyone help? When I run the run.bat, I get this:

I am having the same problem.... I have tried 2 different programs and have rebooted still not broadcasting.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Ok I flashed v2.2.5 over my older v2.2.4 and now when I go to cmd and type adb shell followed by su, it hangs for a sec and then says permission denied. I also cannot use the one click to flash CWM anymore probably because of the su permissions. I have a funny problem with CWM ... if I try to do anything through ROM Manager, it launches stock android recovery. If I shut down and power up holding vol down+power+camera, I am in CWM recovery, but again, if I use the reboot recovery option in there, I'll go into stock android recovery. What is going on? Did I do something wrong, or is this normal behavior? I'm wondering if I should go back to v2.2.4.

Am I not rooted anymore? Superuser seems to work so I assume I am but I'm not sure.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
Turn your phone on and unlock it, then try to su again. It will ask you for permission once. Hit allow and you'll be good to go after that (it won't ask again).

Superuser basically makes sure that you have to personally allow/deny an app to get root access.
[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Ahh that did it, thanks. I didn't see superuser asking for root permissions before since my phone was locked. As always, appreciate it Firon.

Hi guys I just fixed my unrecognized problem as well. So here is something else to try. I had been using a micro usb cable of my own and it would not work until i used the cord it came with. So if you are having problems try a different micro usb cable in a different port.

In the meantime I adb push to /sdcard then chmod the file then busybox mv it to /system or /etc - is this okay?

Still trying to figure out why Wireless tether isnt working ? Doesnt seem to be broadcasting the ssid , no packets in or out either ... rooted with the one click 2.2.5 with no problems ... I have superuser , rom manager and titanium bakup intstalled , no issues . Anyone else having this issue ?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Masterface7:
Hi, Can you refresh the drivers in the original post. Also Do I still have to do something with adb? or has that been included in the 1 click install. If I have to do something why is that not included in the first post? When I run the run.bat file I get device not found, which seems pretty common, but i haven't read any solution to it yet.

I guess the adb drivers are supposed to auto install? but when they dont there isnt much you can do?

My phone does work fine as a mass storage device.
[Epic 4G Android Development] WhiteRasta:
i got device not found when i first tried , i wasnt using the usb cable that came with the epic , therfor it wouldnt allow me to mount the device on the pc , i switched cables and in the shell you can type "adb devices" and see if its mounted . If it doesnt show up there its not going to work . I follwed the steps and everything worked fine for the 2.2.5 root .

[Epic 4G Android Development] nimaim:
Second link is the 64 bit drivers :) First link is the official Samsung one for x86. I have the usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64.zip installed on Win7 64-bit and they work great. This is the order I install the drivers in:

1) Install usb_drivers_GalaxyS_x64.zip

2) Install PDANet just to get the generic Samsung USB driver (I've had great luck with this one) ... also if you uninstall PDANet, the driver should still be there. Easytether works as well, just pick one or the other.

3) Should be good to go :)

If something doesn't work, wipe ALL things related to Samsung (driver, apps, etc.) and start from scratch. The phone is picky with these drivers but if you play around with them enough, you'll get it.

[Epic 4G Android Development] nikeairj:
I dont think this works for people who upgraded to stock DI18 ROM. :(

It set the ADB device status to 'offline' every time I run the script. I verified that the status was 'device' once I ran the 'adb devices' command before running the script. I installed a terminal emulator app and tried to run

ls -l /data/local/tmp

It says operation is not permitted. I guess the DI18 update fixed the exploit.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Firon:
I'm using it right now on stock DI18. :P

do ls -l on /data and paste the line for local. Does the dir even exist for you?

if it does, do ls -l -R /data/local
[Epic 4G Android Development] nikeairj:
This is what I get:

$ls -l /data
opendir failed, Permission denied

Yes, /data exists. I see it listed when running "ls /"

it uses the following permission:

drwxrwx--x system system

Running "ls -l -R /data/local" gave me the same permission error.

This one installs busybox properly so you can actually use all the commands normally (grep, cp, mv, and so on). No need to type 'busybox cp' anymore.

You can also just do this yourself after remounting system as rw by typing busybox --install -s /system/xbin
