If you download the files from the link i have posted on prior page for odin the modem.tar and pit file which should be labled victory_8 are all ready to be placed into the proper odin blocks. Follow the instructions on that link and it should work great. You do not have to extract the modem.tar you simply place it into the phone block in the Odin program the pit file into the pit block and the tar into the PDA block but read the post i posted on different ways to install these files cause i had failures also just like most people have and the steps i did worked. Also john i got those same errors your getting with sucess 0 failure 0 when i used Odin version 1.3 Odin 1.6 worked great but i used the specified files that i posted in my previous post from the link i posted here it is again. if you get a hash error thats when you take the MD5 off the end of the file before placing it into the odin PDA block and you wont get that error again.

[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I keep getting stuck at Setup Connection..
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Ok, so DONT extract then?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
Extract the original odin zip file after download when you open the new odin folder thats created inside you should see these files

1.Android Creative Syndicate

2.Modem.tar

3.Odin3+v1.61

4.Victory_8G_100528.pit

open the odin file first then place the victory file into the pit block and the that dk28 file i said to download from that link i posted in the PDA block then uncheck the f.restart box and click start

if you get error saying hash error unplug phone close odin and reopen Odin.. then take the md5 off the end of your dk28 file and place it back into the PDA block and that same pit file into the pit block and click start.

if that works unplug phone close odin and then reopen odin and plug phone in... then place that modem .tar into the phone block and click start...

you should be good to go hopefully then do that one click root i posted in my previous post that had the turtorial
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
I have tried every combination and get stuck at Setup Connection every time
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
@swp 22...I've tried everthing and am stuck at the same spot.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
you do have coorect drivers right???? always double check that one i had that error also until installed proper drivers
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
You mentioned adb driver earlier? I know my Samsung drivers are good.
[Epic 4G Android Development] JohnCorleone:
Maybe I am missing something here. I cant see anything else being the problem
[Epic 4G Android Development] asapelectric:
Odin3 +v 1.6 and dk28 tar file into the pda spot, only. download mode, connect phone, wait for odin to sense com in the corner, and when it does,press start. That's what I do, hope to help. Debugging checked, too.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
Yes the adb driver is the driver that let's programs reconize your phone. It is very possible to have drivers that will let you reconize your sd card and makes u think your correct ones are installed. I had this problem also I was able to se my sd card with drivers that windows found but it did not load my adb driver so odin would see the com port but couldn't connect to my phone... also I had an issue where some how my phone lost the internal settings to where when I plugged the phone in it would not prompt windows to even attempt the install of the drivers that came with the phone when I bought it. To fix it I did a factory data reset and then used odin to put the dk28 stock file back on. Once I did that and I plugged the phone into my computer it did the correct driver search which included the adb interface driver. You might have lost it like I did due to flashing roms.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Webinator:
Apps to the sd card

So I was reading and you cant run the ap2sd card and the governor killer or it goes into reboot lock. So since the governor killer is baked into apocalypse you can't get you apps to run on the sd card?
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
a2sd isn't even approved to run on 4.0.2 yet. So if you're worried about compatibility/problems at all, I'd steer clear until we get the official go-ahead.
[Epic 4G Android Development] Donut42:
I'm having an issue flashing this onto my phone.

I install the DK28 modem and PIT on my phone successfully. Clear the cache and dalvik cache a few times. I flash part 1 and part 2 of the rom successfully, but when I flash part 3 I get an error saying "Failure at line 12" and it aborts the installation. I can't get any farther than that. Afterward I have to reflash my phone to stock and start from the beginning again.

Any ideas on what my problem is?
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Do you have any other micro USB cables other than the sammy one? Maybe from an old pre or something?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
when flashing 3 your version of clock work mod does say 2.5.1.2 right? And you did root the phone correct after you put the stock dk28 on correct? I also posted a tuturial couple pages back on how to flash the newest version from a stock set up read that and it will probably help you because i got same error your getting and worked around it sucessfully.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
Very strange message im getting... I tried to install that barnicle tether and it installed fine due to someone posting that it worked on this newest version. Well it did install fine and when i hit start to begin tether it says root access is needed for this program to run... I definitly know my phones rooted and i have the super user icon in my app drawer. very very strange
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Donut, after flashing part 1, are you going into the advanced, then reboot recovery and see ver. 2.5.1.2 at the top of clockwork?
[Epic 4G Android Development] jwhisl:
Ok, I must be doing something wrong here. I've followed the install directions to the t and it works fine for 4.0.2a. If I go back to CWM and try to install 4.0.2b, my epic installs it, reboots, then gets stuck in android setup with force close loop. I've tried and had to odin back to stock 3 times. Is there anything specifically that needs to be done for it to work?:confused:
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Are you making sure you are in the moded clockwork?
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnsep:
Hi Guys, I'd like to flash this rom utilizing the EXT4 feature.

Ive looked over the forums and the FAQs many times and haven't found definitive answers for a few questions/concerns.

To start: I am fairly new to flashing the Epic, but not flashing in general. I have already upgraded to the DK28 modem, and currently am running a previous version of Bonsai ROM.

I'd like to flash 4.0.2a and Im made to understand that CWR v.2.5.1.0 will do this just fine. However I thought I read previously that EXT4 is only available through CWR v3.

If Im reading the install instructions correctly I just run the 4 part zips in CWR and I should be all set on my EXT4? Is part 2 the CWR upgrade? Sorry for the noobish questions but I wanted to be sure Im doing everything right before I make myself a very expensive paperweight.
[Epic 4G Android Development] MeetFace:
To be honest, instead of trying to figure out if it works from this point or that, I would just start from ground-zero. There are a couple posts out there that explain that. I'm going to guess you'll save time, instead of mixing up your phone with different ROMs.

Your call, but you could follow one of those guides and be done with it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jwhisl:
I think I am.That's where I'm supposed to scroll down to advanced and select reboot recovery, right?
[Epic 4G Android Development] DAVenom:
Yea u need to get the pre-15 for it to work(i think)

Link:http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/

download and install and should work fine

Hope that helps
[Epic 4G Android Development] deciple:
I've noticed that if you flash a rom that has it pre installed or if you restore apps & data, that you have to uninstall and reinstall it and it will reinstall binaries ask for su and run without kink. Try that and see if it works.

Sent from my spot on the earth.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ficjay:
That's what happened to me when modem didnt Odin in correctly. You may wish to do that step over. Hope it helps:o

edit: sorry for the repeat to already answered question. I was working my way thru the forum starting at page one and was so excited to see an easy one that I could answer that I posted before seeing that I had been done. lol
[Epic 4G Android Development] ficjay:
What I did a couple of days ago to fix this is

a. download Terminal emulator from market

b. enter su

c. then /system/bin/sensorcalibutil_yamaha

follow directions for orientation.Took me a couple of times because I held phone wrong for lining up horizontal but is immediate on orientation now.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SpicyBurrito:
So I feel like an idiot..

But I'm following the instructions from the FAQ as they seem more detailed and I get to the part where I have to unroot my phone. I tried to do that and I can't unroot. The only thing I did was make a backup in clockwork just in case.

Also, how do I backup my apps so I can reinstall them when I put in this rom? Or did clockwork already do that? Sorry for the stupid questions.
[Epic 4G Android Development] makipsee:
hey BT or any of the other devs on here think u can figure out the line needed in the build.prop (or what every else is needed) that turns off the 270 rotation?
[Epic 4G Android Development] myphoneisepic:
idk where the "you need to unroot your phone " stuff got started, i've never "unrooted" my phone, ever to my knowledge and i generally have less issues than most others do who mess with these roms..

also, my back up pro seems to be popular for backing up and restoring apps, i personally use titanium backup pro , they do the same thing from what i hear
[Epic 4G Android Development] bighuta:
Apologies in advance if this has been answered already, but then what's the [Move to SD card] option in the Manage Applications section in settings? Isn't that Apps 2 SD?
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenny782:
Been using it all day but it's been telling me the battery is at 0% for the last 4 hours.

Is this some kind of problem with my phone?

I've seen posts about "calibrating" the battery, is that something that could help.

Thanks guys,

Kenny
[Epic 4G Android Development] Paiyne:
I'm not sure why, but that is the same trick that SniperKill posted and I had previously tried, but this time it worked! I don't know what the difference was but Thanks for the help!
[Epic 4G Android Development] bampf846:
If you downloaded the oneclickroot uninstaller, just go to where you unzipped it, plug your phone in to the computer (while the phone is on and has USB debugging on**), and double-click the run.bat in the uninstaller's folder. If this doesn't work, you can try to go through the process skipping this step. I only put it in because others have mentioned a problem with it and I wanted to make what was written go through a process that had the least chance of ending up with any issues.

Sniperkill is the one that mentioned this. He (?) said that sometimes if you have a rooted phone and the ROM that you are installing has root built-in it can cause issues...that the two roots don't always play nice with each other. So, since I was trying to type up a process with the least chance of an error happening in the end, I included this step.
[Epic 4G Android Development] beejmeister:
I've been so happy with this ROM that I haven't even been on here to check for the next version. This ROM continues to be sweet...

No need to reboot, very very very rare FCs (not the ROM's fault anyway), stays quick.

Take your time Team Viper. While I'm quite a Flashaholic I've not even been tempted to go try other ROMs from other Chefs.

On another satisfaction note, I was sitting at a bar last night having a beer and playing Angry Birds when the guy next to me commented that my screen was beautiful (the colors and such) and was jealous... I asked him what he had for a phone and he showed me his iPhone 4....

Cheers!

Ive been having a issues since i rooted my phone, my 4G doesnt work at all. When i bring the drop down notification bar with Wi-Fi, Bluetooth, GPS, Silent, 4G, and i click "4G" it doesnt show it trying to connect or do anything it just says "On.." under the 4G button. Any thoughts?
[Epic 4G Android Development] bhines57:
Sorry if I missed this somewhere in the thread, but I'm having LagFix issues. I've downloaded the file and it comes through as a Zip instead of an APK. If I unzip the file, I get a bunch of ther files, but none are marked with ".apk".

Did I miss something? I'm a noob... please go easy on me!
[Epic 4G Android Development] strauss0829:
Another issue that isnt major I noticed is that when I hit call the call doesnt ring for like 10 secs and i gotta redial lol other then that and the lockscreen flawless
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenny782:
I've noticed installs from the market stalling sometimes.

The downloads work but the install doesn't.

Once I cancel and start once or twice it will work.

Not the end of the world since it will install eventually
[Epic 4G Android Development] lv2bll:
Before you rooted did you read every faq and guide to help you get things started?

Tell me exactl where you are and what you did before these problems.
[Epic 4G Android Development] lv2bll:
the market download thing you encountered has been happening for me since october. It might be a cache problem or market data issue. I also have juice defender on and that might cut data off before the dl is finished....
[Epic 4G Android Development] kenny782:
hmm, it didn't start on me until i started the 2.2 roms

But i've only had my phone for 2 weeks tops

[Epic 4G Android Development] hotrodguitarist:
ok, I've tried odin with dk28, I've tried redownloading the files, I can not get my clockworkmod to say 2.5.1.2 so I cant get past the advance - reboot recovery step.... please help
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
did you flash the file that says ( first ) that one is the new clock work mod so the other files can be installed

also i posted a set up from stock couple pages back that might help..... i installed hell version first before attmepting the new versions
[Epic 4G Android Development] Donut42:
I'm going to redownload and reinstall it again. Having not installed it my clockwork says 2.5.1.0 atm
[Epic 4G Android Development] hotrodguitarist:
yea, I've flashed the first file and it says completed but never shows .5 any idea what page # your posts are on? If not I'll hunt them down after work, but I've gone through so many pages last night and today that its driving me nuts
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
about 5 pages back its a pretty big post hope it works for ya
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
After you flash the first file, scroll down to advance and select it, the scroll to reboot recovery and select it. It should boot you into clockwork 2.5.1.2. Don't reboot in between steps.
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnsep:
This is a dumb question, but are you wiping you caches, personal info, and dalvik cache before flashing?

Also after you flash part 1, are you rebooting your phone? You should not be. Choose the go back option, then advance, then reboot recovery and your clockwork should read the correct version.
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
its suppossed to say that if you flash the file that says first then go to advanced and click reboot recovery it should say 2.5.1.2 now at the top and the bottom then proceed to install file 2 3 and 4 all while in 2.5.1.2 then do reboot system
[Epic 4G Android Development] Donut42:
I have wiped all you listed there. However, after installing part 1 I didn't check the clockwork version. I will do so next time and post the results. Thank you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jwhisl:
Ok, I was in 2.5.1.2 and got the 4 normal files to install booted properly. I walked through setup and signed into gmail. What do I need to do now to get 4.0.2b installed and working>
[Epic 4G Android Development] Donut42:
OK I have flashed part 1 and selected Reboot Recovery. Unfortunately it is the normal android recovery
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
Go back into clockwork, click the flash first file, scroll down to advanced, select it then reboot recovery. Make sure you are in 2.5.1.2 then select file from SD card, then choose file and flash it.
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
is anyone having the setup wizard force closing issues on 4.0.2b? 2nd time i let my phone battery die overnight, wake up, put in fresh battery, power up and setup wizrard force closes over and over... can't do anything at all. have to odin back to stock, etc. etc.

Netflux suggested powering down manually at least once, to kind of set everything in place, so i'm gonna try that this time, even tho i thought i did it last time. any ideas? maybe just never let the battery die? maybe it's a bug in the ROM?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Donut42:
I have found your tutorial from earlier SWP22. I will follow it to the letter and post results.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
What type sync are you attempting? The choices should be charging/ debugging/ or mass storage

yogi, I have been experiencing this same thing. I'm on my 4th try now and when I try to flash the 1st file to get to the modded cw I get

Opening update package...

[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
yeah, i had that too. but i think i went to reboot recovery, then flash first again... and it worked. can't remember exactly, but i tried again and it worked...

hopefully we won't have to do this everytime our battery dies, lol. i'm not sure if it happens every time or not.
[Epic 4G Android Development] SladeNoctis:
BT i hope that the next version will be a single rom, cause for some reason i have no problem with the 4 flash method but for some reason after it was done and i tried to flash part b the recovery wont reboot to the modded cw. So i tried the modd 3.0.0.5 cw and it completely rejected it.

[Epic 4G Android Development] sjc924:
If you are running ViperROM 4.0.1 or above it is baked in and you don't need the download, assuming you are talking about the VIPERmod Governer Killer...
[Epic 4G Android Development] lorenza:
I've had the "B" version since the first day and thought I had the perfect thing going and for the most part it is however I found two things recently. Wi Fi tether which has already been addressed in this forum and the other is I cannot send pictures via SMS (handcent). Don't know if that's been addressed yet but figured I would mention it so maybe one you viper guys can take a look-see. Like I said, this ROM is near perfection, all you need to do is fine tuning, no major changes necessary. Good work from all of you.
[Epic 4G Android Development] sweepingzero:
Pics through regular smsworks fine fo me
[Epic 4G Android Development] lorenza:
Standard messaging does not send pics for me either; damn
[Epic 4G Android Development] lorenza:
Well it appears that I spoke out of turn. It appears that it's just me not sending pics via SMS so, disregard the SOS :-)
[Epic 4G Android Development] Donut42:
It seems that no matter what I do I cannot get this damn thing to install on my phone. I followed all instructions to the letter but my phone just will not accept this damn thing :( Looks like I'll have to use a different one.
[Epic 4G Android Development] cerebralzulu:
I know this is way out, but are you still using the samsung cable? I think someone asked you but don't remember seeing your response. They are notorious for poor performance.
[Epic 4G Android Development] jemarent:
wifi tether

Barnacle Tether installs and launches fine, but then as soon as i go to connect with another device, it fails. I've tried to reinstall it and still no luck. The client connects and then instantly fails. The app does have root access according to superuser. Any suggestions?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
Dont give up brother we will get your through it your phones no different then ours theres just a step missing. Did you use the files that i listed in my post from that link i provided to put your phone back to dk28 stock? then once that was done you then used that root file i provided and ran it and only selected number option for root only right? then from there you wiped your sd car from the phone using the phone menue? then you flashed 4.0 hell version and booted the phone up right? then from there you wiped your sd card again and booted into clock work and flashed the (a) version following BT instructions right? Then powered the phone up wipe your sd card again and try the (B) version.. what part are you exzactly stuck at with the process i listed above?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
same issue here dont sweat it its not your phone and your phone is rooted.... we will just have to wait for BT to do the main fix for it
[Epic 4G Android Development] yogi2010:
other things that seem to help are: formatting your sd card before flashing 4.0.2, and flashiing 4.0.1 first. have you tried those?
[Epic 4G Android Development] swp22:
On a side note..... has anyone else noticed that the mini info ram usage is extreamly low mine hovers around 65 to 120 which is good but if you go into task manager it still says im using like 208mb out of 303 which is what it said when my phone was stock......

John are able to boot into clockwork and do a factory data reset if so try that first if you havnt yet and then try the Odin

Also i dont know if people know this but i posted in my earlier one that ODIN hates the reset button always unplug phone and close ODIN fully and re-run the program and then plug phone in.. Also if your using windows 7 right click on the Odin program and click run as administrator... crossing fingers for ya man
