hello,
i first rooted the epic 4g eclair with one click root and then i rooted it to clockwork 3.0.0.5. after that i installed the new viperrom, but in the rom, the airplane mode keeps turning ON and OFF.
i have tried different roms like moonlight, etc. but the same problem.
is there a way to solve this problem ??
is there a way to go back to rfs from ext4 ??
please help
rahul
first, we gotta figure out what the problem is. my guess is you're not on the DK28 modem.
go to settings > about phone and post what it says for Baseband version. The last 4 letters should be DK28. if its not, you'll have to check development for posts on how to get the DK28 modem, i think you can flash it by itself in ODIN or there might even be an update.zip for just the modem now, not sure.
once you do that, i'd reflash the ROM, then see where you're at. if you already have the DK28 modem, you might want to either re-ODIN the whole DK28 rel.tar or maybe even go back to DI18, your call.
thanks. i finally managed to flash back to DI18 using odin. that was a relif. thans again
You probably just needed to do a fresh flash before you flashed froyo did you odin the modem and pit file? That's not airplane mode flashing on and off it was just your phone not able to get a signal from the tower proper.

Hey guys, check it out. I just figured out how to get into clockwork recovery, and assuming and going about flashing a rom just like I would on my evo, I go ahead and download a rom for the epic, flash it, and it works fine. So it loads up like normal after a flash n reboot, and it kept saying no service... so I was like... uh... weird.. so I booted back into clockwork and tried nand back to the backup I did before flashing anything, of course... but I started getting an error saying it couldn't open recovery.log and now it freezes restoring at saying "lost+found" .... so I pull the batter, and now it just automatically revolts to clockwork all the time, and trying to boot the system normally... I'm not using CWM 3+.. rather the older 2.xx ... any ideas?
It's hard to understand your writing. I think the best thing you can do is use Odin to flash back to stock and start over. You didn't say what version of android you were on but if it's dk28 did you flash the modem?
What rom did you flash? I take it you were on stock di18 before?
Flashing a rom based on one of the leaked froyo builds without also flashing a modem could cause the initial problem.
And nandroid doesn't backup or restore the kernel, so using that to restore still leaves you with the kernel of the rom you flashed before, which can cause problems across build versions.
You're best bet is to odin back to di18 and start again.

Thanks a bunch, I know I re-read my post and was like.. man I wasnt descriptive at all... LOL, but I checked out this Odin, and TBH i have NO idea what all this stuff is for the Epic, only doing it to fix the booboo I did on my g/f's phone I have the Evo so its totally different stuff almost... Anyways im back to stock, now I need to read up before screwing around again .
Hey guys,
so i am having a bit of an issue. I did a search and didnt find anything as far as this problem.
So here is the problem, i am not getting ANY audio or haptic feedback on my epic. I came from the stock eb13 i made a backup of it in CWM before the ext4. I rooted using Dameons on click root EB13 with cwm 2.5. I then flashed Bonsai 3.0. I had some problems with that so i went back to stock DK27 with Odin. I used Odin to then update the kernal and go back to stock EB 13 using noobln's files for going back to stock. I was fine until I flashed the kernal patch for video lag on the camera and tried to install the Hulu patch. I have restored twice now to my backup from before ext4 yet the phone is still rooted.
could the kernal be in conflict with the stock EB13? If it is still the kernal with EXT4?
I am also getting a window that says my internet connection isnt working but it will load everything.
Would doing a full wipe and and Odin back to stock EB13 get rid of this?
everything else is working flawlessly except for sound and haptic feedback.
Can anyone tell me what files I should use in order tio just odin back to eb13? I am afraid I may hav mixed up the pit file and the tar. May be why I am having issues as well?

Small update. Wiped the phone and flashed the viper kernal and rom. Still have the same issue. I must say though I like. The viper teams rom.
Ok so I was looking over some things and it turns out that Odin did not load the PIT file when I tried to go back to EB13. Would this cause this issue?
So I did a full factory reset to stock EB13. No luck, still having the problem. Maybe its a hardware issue then. I unrooted it andd Odined back to stock, and nothing.
This is frustrating.
I tried to post this on the actual thread about this Update, but I was not allowed because I had not posted 10 times previously.
Anyway, I am new to rooting Android phones….new to android phones for that matter. I have had the Samsung Epic 4G for about a month. I have been looking into rooting the phone, finally decided to go for it. I downloaded the filre for Clockwork Mod version 3.0.0.5/6 - UPDATED FOR EB13 from this site. After doing one run of that bat file and getting stuck on the startup screen, I realized I needed to find a compatible ROM and Kernel and install them before rebooting.
I reset the phone to default settings, using the info on http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=909384 and then I used the kernel
from the original update thread, Default Stock Dual FS kernel For EB13, and the Bonzai ROM from their website. This time, the install worked properly, and when my phone rebooted, the firmware is listed as Bonsai/Kernel_v4.01. So I wanted to backup and uninstall some Samsung Bloatware from the phone,and as I understand it, the Titanium Backup is the best way to do it. Well, I installed it, and it has consistently said the program could not acquire root status. I clicked on the “problems” icon, got busybox and upgraded superuse, and that did not effect anything. I even reflashed the Bonzai Rom, but the end result is the same, I am still getting that same message. Since I have replaced my Rom and have installed Superuser, I have to assume I have rooted the phone, so what could be the problem here? The app SetCPU also says I do not have Root Access. So I am not sure what to do at this point.
Sounds like a failed root:
Root again with the oneclick 3.0.0.6, power off, 3 finger boot and ext4 will be put on automatically. After ext4 installs install bonsai before rebooting.

Is there a difference between onclick 3.0.0.6 and the one in the thread http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=897612,which is labelled 3.0.0.5/6? Because, if not, that is pretty much what I have done already.
Same one.
I would odin to eb13, odin ec05 modem, root, boot to recovery and allow ext4, flash bonsai 4.0.1. Can't remember if 4.0.1 adds ec05 modem during flash, but if it does you can skip the ec05 odin (sorrry, but my mind has been on 4.1.0 for the last week).
The odin process will get rid of the kernel you currently have. Flashing the rom doesn't do anything to the kernel. The odin process will give you a nice clean slate to workv with. If your phone wants to do an ec05 OTA update during this process please tell it later and don't do it.

This exact thing happened to me after trying everything from the EC05 OTA. Just run the bat file again on the phone...nothing else and it will work fine.
Hi All,
I'm sorry to start a new thread but I've been looking around for hours and I haven't slept (delirious as a result). Here's my situation:
I was on DK28, put on the one click root, and I got SU just fine. I rebooted to tried to flash an update (probably wouldn't have worked anyway) and it stopped and converted to ext4 (I think that's what happened). Since then I haven't been able to get it to boot up past the Samsung logo. My goal is EC05/Syndicate Frozen Rom 1.1.0. I figure I should use Odin for something, but it doesn't work! My drivers were fine for USB (storage/debugging) but not Download Mode. What do I do? Can I set up the connection I need for Odin through CWM?
Thanks
EDIT: is it safe to wipe everything and install a stock DI18 from a zip?

After the EXT4 conversion you needed to flash the SRF BEFORE you rebooted. If the ROM is still on your sd card, 3 finger into Clockwork and flash the ROM. If that does not work then it is best to Odin back to stock and try again, whether it is DI18, EB13 or EC05.
If you did let it convert to EXT4 then you cannot install DI18 from a zip because it is an RFS ROM.
Thanks for the fast reply, I didn't flash the SRF because I was at DK28, and now, as you said I can't flash DI18. Can I still flash SRF? If not, do you know how to resolve the USB problem with Odin?

So you grabbed CWM 3.0.0.6, rooted then booted into Clockwork, it converted you to EXT4 and then you rebooted without flashing SRF, correct? You should be able to flash it then Odin in the EC05 modem.
As far as Odin, try different USB ports, try a different cable. Each time it fails, pull the battery then go back into download mode and try again. Also reboot the computer fresh. I assume your drivers are good.
I'll try that. How do I flash the EC05 modem? Flash EC05 in Odin, Flash SRF in Odin?

The EC05 modem is with Odin, the SRF flashes in Clockwork Mod (3 finger salute).
Heading out so won't be able to get back to you until later. You can always do the modem later.

Glad I could help. Enjoy the way your phone was meant to work.
When I tried to switch from ACS EI22 4 to 5 my phone force close looped because of some issue with launcher pro. I went to reflash the rom from CWM and ever since my phone won't properly load roms from CWM. When the phone has a custom rom it boots right to CWM when I power them up only to freeze again when I try to boot the rom from recovery.
I have Odined to stock EC05, and one click flashed CWM. I have flashed pre-rooted EC05 roms. I Odined to EI22 & EC05 modem Tar and went on to install ACS recovery over CWM.
I have Odined multiple times on multiple stock roms and custom roms. The problem persists. Once I'm in recovery (I've tried 3 versions) and I click "reboot" the phone locks with a black screen with the home buttons on or an image of the clockwork logo (depending on which version I'm trying).
The strange thing is, all of the stock roms work just fine and I was able to install EI22 from OTA with no problems. But who wants that icky CIQ? or Sprint nascar/football/bloatware? Yuck!
I've had some limited success with simple pre-rooted deodex etc roms I flash from Odin, but sometimes recovery loads when I power up the phone. And sprint keeps wanting to force the update on me.
Does anyone have any suggestions? I've tried everything I can think of and have searched, to no avail, for a solution.
Does anyone think this is a hardware issue? One of the kernels I tried on ACS 5 was a beta.
If so, how should I go about getting it fixed since it is under warranty. I do have accidental damage coverage.
Most likely not hardware related. I say that because you said you can run stock just fine.
I would try the new CWM5 just released and see if the problem is still there.

That's what I thought and why I continued to Odin and one-click root different types of CWM and ACS recovery.
I'm going to see if the repair store nearby can run a diagnostic. Otherwise I'm going to stay away from any modifications that require me to use CWM for anything since I was able to Odin a custom rom (but it was EC05).
Hopefully Samsung will release the EI22 modem tar and someone will release a pre-rooted version that I can Odin.
I tried odin flashing different recoveries yesterday. Odin gave them a pass but they wouldn't boot from the 3 finger salute (like they didn't install).
I've never tried to install CWM this way so I'm not sure if you need to be rooted before hand or you need a specific kernel.

So it goes back into stock recovery with 3 finger? Easiest fix is Odin in a prerooted EC05 ROM tar like EC05plus then flash a Gingerbread ROM then flash the modem delta.

Yes it goes into stock recovery. Unfortunately flashing in CWM has been the problem that lead me to flashing CWM through Odin. For more detail see the original post. Whenever I try to flash something through CWM the recovery has problems and it fails to load the rom that is installed.
I'm trying as many alternatives to pinpoint the problem. I'm going to try switching SD cards and see if the problem resulted from some kind of data corruption there. Should have an update on that sometime tonight.
If I can't figure out and fix the problem I'll be at the mercy of sprint or if I want root I'll have to wait for a pre-rooted EI22 rom complete with modem tarball so I can odin that.
I saw the OP but didn't see where you Odin'd a prerooted EC05 ROM like EC05plus. Then flash a GB ROM right after. Just 2 steps. Then if you want the modem one more step to flash the delta. It's worth a shot?

I can't flash from CWM no matter how CWM gets on my phone. I tried exactly what you said. My original post says I Odined multiple stock and custom roms. I didn't get around to CWM flashing on a different card tonight, finals got me busy busy.
Enjoy your turkey day!

Thanks, you too.
So if Odining the EC05Plus ROM didn't get you a working 3 finger salute CWM, then maybe you should try ROM Manager and downloading CWM 5.X.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1357655
It must be a hardware problem. I can odin a rom with CWM and it will boot fine. However if I ever try to open CWM the rom will never load again as the phone boots to recovery and get's stuck there.
I confirmed this by Odin flashing and then going into clockwork and not even flashing anything and it got stuck. Flashing in CWM will actually install things as I can change CWM within CWM but I still get stuck when trying to load the rom.
So the only way for me to enjoy a rooted phone is to refrain from CWM recovery.
I went back to a EH17 odined pre-rooted rom. When EI22 gets a modem tar hopefully someone will make a pre-rooted, deodexed, zipaligned odin tar (and if I'm lucky, CiQ will be removed).
Otherwise I'd like to get a replacement but explaining the problem to sprint is kind of a catch 22 since the issue only appears when I load a custom recovery.
How about flashing CWM 5.027 and downloading ROM Manager and installing 5.027 through that as well. Rom Manager actually downloads the CWM 5 and keeps it packed on your sd card and installs it everytime you use it. It allows ROM Manager to be able to update the CWM whenever a new version comes out.
