Ok, my phone was getting low on battery and started going haywire. I charged and reflashed the rom but now my phone wont sync with my comp after trying numerous things. It was the truly epic rebirth rom.
Any idea what might have happened? I tred different usb cables, rebooting drivers but nothing. The phone still charges but no syncing. Is there a internal driver in the phone that syncs the phone that might have been corrupted?
BTW I posted this to impalers747 Q/A thread but we seemed to be stumped to. Thanks for tryin yogi and impaler747 but I figure more people might see this if I make a thread and someone might of had a similar issue.
Odin back to DK28 and reflash the ROM. There might be another way, but that is what I would do.

When you put your phone in download mode, Odin doesn't see it? (Not trying to sound sarcastic, just making sure I get where you are at)

I haven't done this, but you should be able to use CW to flash your phone back to the stock ROM and then go from there. Here is a link for an older thread that discussed it and has links to the stock ROM. I am hoping you can get into CW, and if you can you should be able to flash from your sd card

You still should be able to. I think this would fix your problem. And you can always use CW to get back to a rooted DK28 instead of using one click root. Or, if you haven't already tried, you could wipe and try a different ROM. The sync could just be a DK28 issue and a different ROM might have what makes it work.

Hopefully you nandroid your device?
I had a problem with connecting my device to my laptop. My laptop would never see my phone but odin was still able to see it with some playing around. This happened to me on di18. In order for me to get back to dk28 I had to odin the extended tar so I had root and everything.
Before trying to odin I cleaned out the micro usb port on the phone with a q-tip tabed in rubing achole. I even switched to my girls blackberry charger. I no longer have issues even when using my samsung cable but I try to use either my evo or her blackberry cable. Before doing any of this I suggest uninstalling and re-installing the proper drivers.

Ill try and clean it out but even odin wont read it but the damn thing still charges. I even went to sprint to check it out on there comp but im guessing they didnt have the drivers installed as most of them didnt have too much knowledge on rooting and flashing.
i tried reinstalling drivers about 5 times lol
quick question 4 u guys before i take the plunge on stocking back the epic.

based on post 9 I would just
1: flash the dk18 modem?
2: then flash the stock rom?
3. remove cwm?
does that make sense?
I mean I would want to keep cwm till the end just incase something goes haywire and I can restore
all aborted? hmm it says that it can not install due to the ext4 script

What ext4 script? Stock di18 and stock dk28 don't have ext4. So if you are on plain jane dk28, then you aren't on ext4. And if you are going to di18, you aren't converting to ext4.
I had ext4 script otherwise i wouldnt been able to install those new roms before the update. Im not sure what to do from here now since I'm back to stock backup and rom manager doesnt work for ****

Stuck! For some God forsaken reason, when my phone is in DL mode Odin or any computer that i tried will read the phone. I have tried different drivers thats been posted in this forum along with different settings like turning on/off developer mode before going to DL mode.
So I cant use Odin to update my modem on my phone.... is there a file that i can roll back to the DI18? I use the update.zip from DI18>DK28 and hoping that i can revert that way and go get EC05 through CWM.
This doesn't belong in development, hopefully impaler will be here to move it soon.
We need more info to be able to help, like:
What OS is the computer running?
Do you have the Samsung drivers installed?

I have the same problem myself.
DK28 is an unsupported build. The update script posted above won't work.
In DK28 USB communication died and as such Odin is not an option. The only option as far as I know is to flash a FULL ROM which has a DI18 modem as part of the ROM using CWM. You will just have to put the file on the SD card manually using a PC since USB is not an option.
After you go to DI18 just follow the regular steps to go from DI18 -> EC05 (may need multiple steps with EB13 intermediate step)
I haven't gotten around to doing this myself yet, still stuck on DK28.

so flash a rom that have a di18 rom and hope for the best?
it seems that i have that i cannot find a rom that is supported with cwr 3.0+ to flash back to di18 =(
There is no reason DK28 should have effected being able to use Odin at all as LiberatorUSA has suggested, as many here running custom roms have more than likely run a version of DK28 at one time, and the only way to update the modem from DK28 is through Odin. And while you can flash a different rom through CWM (such as those based on DI18, EB13, or even EC05), you will still need to use Odin to update the modem. If you really think DK28 is to blame, then you can flash to an EC05 rom (such as SRF 1.1.0, as it supports CWM3) and then try to re-Odin from there.
Here are some basic things to try, as I don't see them listed in what you have done... Have you tried using every usb port on your computer? Are you using the stock usb cable? Have you tried other cables? Completely uninstall all previous drivers before trying to install different drivers. Open your device manager and connect your phone in DL mode, watching to see what devices appear, then manually attempt to uninstall those specific devices.
Download the epic drivers direct from Samsung. The first time connecting may take up to 15 minutes as there are some parts that Windows 7 seems to want to find on the net. After all drivers report installed then put your phone in download mode (hold 1 key while booting on) start Odin then plug your phone in. A COM number should show up on the computer screen. If this doesn't work try another data cable.

I have tried it in multiple computers and the odin do recognize the phone untill i go to DL mode, i Dl the drivers directly from samsung and it did took awhile to find the drivers. It recognize the device until i go to DL mode, I have used my samsung cable , my wifes htc evo cable and my mom's droid x cable. All the same result, i spent the whole day trying to figure it out. I had a fresh install of winxp and win7 on two different laptops.
I installed the DK28 through a CWM, i have been having odin problems since day one and not just this time.

meh might just get a refurb from sprint later on. or get a new phone all together. I cant find a solution w/ or w/o odin >_<
Hi, im on the DK28 version of froyo, i cant update to ec05 because the phone will no longer mount to any pc, i have tried multiple pc's and multiple cords and cannot get the phone to mount.
When i try to flash the an update.zip other than the dk28 version i get errors. The phone used to have root but when i reflashed DK28 thinking it would fix the sd card issue, i lost root. I cant 0ne click it, i cant odin a rom. It left the Superuser application behind (Which I cant uninstall). Also I tried a wipe data/factory. When i try updating to EC05 i was getting an error 2. Basically im completely stuck on DK28.
At the very least i need to get the superuser application off the phone so i can return it since i believe the mounting issue is a hardware failure.
Does anyone have an update.zip that will not give me a signature error? Or have something i can try to get this fixed enough to return it to sprint.

Unfortunatly ive tried 3 different cables as well as different computers and different usb ports on each one of them. What i need is a Non-pc involved solution for this. I can live without mounting the phone to the pc, if i could just get upgraded to Sprints official EC05 rom. I know it has its problems, but at least it wont lock me out of ota like DK28 has, and then i can at least take the phone bak to the store at my liesure.
Have you tried removing and reinserting the SD card? When you 3 finger the phone you only get stock recovery? Does the charge light come on with the data cable in the USB port?

yes to both. odin does not see the phone. Im certain that its a hardware problem at this point, which is why im looking for an update zip i can manually put on the card that will let me flash ec05 on to the phone and erase super user. at the very least i want to remove super user.

I thought the sd cards won't mount? If they do then it will have to be a signed update zip that doesn't check for the stock apps and previous modem version.

Im Sorry i should have clarified this. The phone can see the SD cards just fine..Internally. But when i connect a cable (any cable, i have 4) to the pc (any pc, i tried on 3 dif pc's one xp, two windows 7), i cannot see the cards from the PC, odin does not see the phone, etc, basically interfacing between the 2 is nil. I am currently taking the micro sd card out of the phone, putting it into a usb adaptor and copying files to it from the pc that way, then returning the card to the phone in order to try to update it. My problem is, i need a Rom that will update without trying to verify the signature since it thinks my phone is rooted, even though it isnt anymore. At this point i wouldnt even mind a wipe since i did that yesterday anyway, just going back to DK28 Stock. Problem with Dk28 is it doesnt allow the OTA of Ec05 to come in.

Look further in the thread to see if someone put up a signed version. Amend2edify will create a signed zip, it may convert the one you downloaded. I found that thread by googling "update.zip for dk28 samsung epic" there were a lot more results I didn't check out.

Ok, I have win7 and cannot root with my comp. I spent weeks trying to get it to work, and I gave up. At the time, I had an older machine with XP, and was able to root my phone via that older machine. Since then I have moved and that comp is in storage.
I'm getting all kinds of errors and the phone keeps shutting off constantly (currently running srf) and I have tried to wipe and reinstall many many times.
Being that my comp doesn't see my phone (only sometimes it sees it for storage, but that only happens WITHOUT debugging, and even then is hit or miss. I use wireless ftp for file transfers) I can't Odin and I can't root. I tried the "no computer" roots before, but it would never work, and I always had to use my older computer with XP.
Is there a ReRFS WITH root? I've searched and can't find one. I'd like to go back to stock w/ root so I can start flashing roms from scratch.
Sounds like the cable but wierd it works on old but not new I have heard that sometimes only certain usb ports on a computer will work something about being attached to the board or something So if using the stock cable replace that with something like a blackberry one and maybe try a different usb port on the computer

Does that kernel actually root the epic? If so, I could flash the ReRFS and then flash that for root ect.
I think so.

I was angry at my current rom which was on MTD so i decided just to you the old samsung "phone flash utility" (Epic4G_FroyoUpgrade_EB13.exe) that was uploaded on their site like a year ago to go back to stock. well i think since the phone was MTD it didnt work and now its stock at the connect cable screen, is there anything i can do?
I am running CleanGB MTD. The first time I tried to install it I had a bad download & needed to redo it from scratch. I used the Samsung EB13 Windows Installer utility to restore my phone back to stock & had no problems at all. It was up & running on MTD just had a few errors that I did not have time to fix that morning & I ran it for a few days after restoring with the utility, rooting, & restoring my backup. But now I'm enjoying the MTD goodness.....
Can you get back into download mode?
If so I would get a different USB cable & try running the installer again.

from what ive been reading on the threads, i believe you can just odin back, and back sure you have reboot and re-partition checked marked.
I found out what the problem was. I should have known this because this happened to me once before. I was using my front USB ports. Front ports on most pc's are only 1.0 and you need to use the back 2.0 ones to work. Most people think its cable issues but its usually just USB port. This samsung utility is a complete gem! screw odin. thanks for the response!!!

So my friend gave me his phone to see if I could fix it. It loops in CWM and won't get out of it and I can't connect with odin to it. (My phone connects just fine.) This is the only other thing I can think of. Anyone else got other ideas?
---------- Post added at 01:25 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:08 PM ----------
Well tried it and phone still not discovered by the PC. I am at a loss at what to do. I know my friend tried to install some type of rom to it and didn't make a backup. It boots in to CWM non-stop and I can flash zips but it never leaves that loop even after the flashes. I can boot into Download mode but the phone won't be recognized. Tried both Odin and this. The phone is getting charged through the cable though which confuses me even more. Any help?!
Anyone have any ideas?! I am at a loss at what to do!

Uninstall and reinstall the drivers. Then also try Odin with the battery and phone plugged in. Make sure you use a better cable than stock.
I was running the ICS leaked release and decided to try another ROM. I think my mistake was that I didn't flash a custom recovery like Rogue's and just threw the ROM on my SD, went into the stock recovery that came with the ICS leaked ROM, ran Calkulin's wipe and flashed the ROM.
The phone won't boot up. I can get into Download Mode but I don't know where I can download a stock tar to flash in ODIN 1.85. If I try and go to the stock recovery it doesn't work.
Any help would be appreciated.
***EDIT***
It's still stuck at the data.img portion of the process (end process). It's probably not going far from there.
I can't get into the stock recovery but it does allow the download mode still.

In the dev threads look for sfhubs oneclick el29. Download it and follow instructions. It will be fine.

Then use autoroot to get cwm back.

I tried that earlier and it didn't work. I deleted all the files and will try it again. When I tried the steps it just hung at waiting for connection or something to that effect.

That really sound like you don't have the drivers quite right. When you open the regular odin, and your phone is in download mode, does a yellow box on odin show up? If not its the drivers.

Yes. It shows COM port I in yellow which is a good thing because it recognizes something is connected.

Then the one click should work just fine. Make sure you follow his instructions to the T. Also on his page he has some drivers, you should install those, it uninstall or over write the old ones. Just to be sure.

Thanks. It looks like it's working now. It's installing right now and then we shall see but I'm pretty sure it'll work. I'll leave it stock for now until ICS comes out. I'm so buy working on my new car that I barely have time to geek out anymore on my phone.
Don't try to flash anything with stock recovery ...it has to be officially signed by Samsung ...won't work

It didn't work. Last night I went to run the EL29 Restore - Rooted and it got stuck on the data.img portion. The progress bar on the phone and computer just hung there. I disconnected the cable and went to bed (after 1.5 hours of it just sitting there stuck).
I'm trying it again today and lets see if it gets stuck.
I'm reflashing EL29 over the FB21 (w/e the leaked version of ICS was) I had. Is that the issue?
Sorry but I think your bricked. There is a "Stuck at Data.img" thread here in q&a.
The issue still isn't repairable.
The way you went about getting stuck here is a little different tho. So hopefully I'm wrong.
Good luck
Are you stuck in a bootloop? If so, do you get any further than the Samsung splash screen?
Try re-flashing the ICS leak. I read somewhere that it could be a filesystem issue with switching to and from GB. If that doesn't work, maybe you'll have better luck with using ODIN as opposed to the one-click method. You'll find the tars here-

In most cases you'll be flashing them in PDA, but read everything closely, and follow the steps.
If you have insurance, I almost suggest going to Sprint while it still seems there's no evidence you've been flashing (yellow triangle), as they'll likely just replace it for you.
If none of that works, then it sounds like a rare problem that happened to mine a few months ago. This was the only thread I found at that time, but it was for AT&T's GSII.

I ended up getting a new one, but I would love to finally find a solution since I still have it. Pretty much the only thing I haven't tried is a JTAG service.

If I turn on the phone I get a screen that says
"Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again."
I don't get to the point where it even shows me a Samsung logo; just straight to that screen.
When I go into Download Mode I see
ODIN MODE
Product Name: SPH-D710
Custom Binary DOwnload: No
Current Binary: Samsung Official
Here's the thread caspersfi mentioned. I'm reading through it myself now.

I'm reading it now. I want to add that it was CWM touch that messed up my phone because I had flashed that before attempting to flash another ROM since ICS build came with the default factory recovery. So I'm guessing my file system is corrupt. I'll keep reading through the thread. (I skipped to the last couple of pages.
Hey so can you still get into download mode? I ran into the same problem where it kept getting stuck in odin. Try a different usb cable and a different port. Odin is very fussy with usb cables. When I had the trouble I was using a Logitech usb cable. Switched to the one that came with my phone and it worked like a charm.

I'm using the one that came with the phone and I tried different ports. I don't have another cable to use but I doubt that will help me out. Thanks for the suggestions though.

I didnt think it was possible that a simple cable swap would help me when I was in the exact same position as you either but it sure did. What could it hurt to just try a different cable? I am sure you could borrow one from a friend just to try it. According to qbking77 samsung cables are pretty bad when it comes to using odin.
