Get your MSL number and then dial ##gpsclrx#
See if that gets your gps working again.

It is the 6 digit number that identifies your phone and is used to activate it and reprogram it. I assume you are rooted. Download connectbot from the market. Choose Samsung Epic and local then type this exactly with MSL in caps with the hardware keyboard
getprop ril.MSL
Your 6 digit number will appear on the screen.

Try this, it may fix all your problems with the phone:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1226074&highlight=clear+modem
Have you tried using the gps status app to clear the a-gps state and download the assistance data? In the app press menu>tools>manage a-gps state>reset. Then menu>tools>manage a-gps state>download.
Did you happen to run the pm disable com.samsung script? If so you will have to re-enable it in order to update prl by typing pm enable com.samsung in root explorer after typing su.
Glad to find this thread, i haven't seen some of these other suggestions yet.

That happens to me when I use the car charger. Rapid chargers will cause this.

Is it the one that came with the phone? Do you have any syncs enabled? Low signal? Which ROM and modem?

I tried searching and could not find anything related, although it may be buried, but what exactly does the "USB Charging" toggle do in the ##DATA# menu? it can be toggled in either "View" or "Edit" mode. Thank You.
no idea but I wondered about that too

That's your MSL code. It is device specific, so someone else's password will not work on your phone. There are a few threads on here about obtaining your MSL. I personally, just called sprint, and asked for it. If they ask why, just say you are having problems after the update, and want to do a factory reset.

***I think you need the stock Kernel or else you might get a bootloop
The MSL can be found by downloading "terminal emulator" and typing "getprop ril.MSL" It is case sensitive.
From there, go to the phone, and type ##72786# , at the SCRTN screen select yes, let the phone reboot, let the activation go through its thing NOT TOUCHING THE SCREEN unless it tells you to. Let it do a reboot again.

Try this and when you reboot it will run through activation and the phone will try to update the prl and profile.

I've been able to update my profile and prl with Starburst ROM. First time I did it was when I started experiencing LOS issues.

I fixed it by flashing a new ROM and wiping all the data!
Someone please help! I don't know what to do!
Nevermind, I think I fixed it!
I fixed it by changing the band to GSM Preferred/GSM ALL but now I only get E. Any way I can get back 4g?
Change it back to automatic or Odin kl1 modem from rootzwiki team kang post.

I changed it to auto, and i'm getting signal. Time to check if 4g. Thanks.
EDIT: It shows signal, but Im not getting any. Can't send text or browse web. Time to odin modem.
I flashed it, and I went to settings and looked at the network mode: It was GSM only. I changed it to auto mode. It seems to still get and send texts, and I looked at band selection with the dialer code, and there wasn't a star besides anything. I think it might've worked, but I still only get e.
By flashed I mean odined. Lol

I had same issue and this is how I fixed it.
disable data connection and switch your phone off, remove the back cover and remove sim card completely. Then re-insert sim card and turn your phone back on and it should ask you to re-enable data connection once it boots up.
let me know if this helps

I did this, but it didn't ask me to turn it back on, so I turned it on manually, and still only E.

Other phones receive 3G? Perhaps T-Mobile is servicing your area? This has happened to me but I had no control over it.

Here's what I did that messed with my 3G
I flashed skyrocket roms.
So what I did was wipe everything. Go to mounts and storage and format system. Then flash Juggernaut or any other rom you desire. Then you're done

First try GPS status. Get it from the market. Once you open, hit menu, tools, manage a-GPS, reset. Then go back to manage a-gps, and hit download. wait for a gps sat lock

If you decide on trying the gps fix you will need to do it through the temp bml cwm5.

Just tried this on build 29. Got 0/2 fix/sats. Haven't had to use GPS for anything in a while, but yeah, its not working very well. I tried navigation also, and it just sits on searching for GPS.

Got 11 out of 11 satellites and fix to 3 ft! The CIA can find me easily now! I installed the gps fix on CleanGB before CM9 or AOKP and it seems to have stuck. If you can't get it working you may have to go the Odin route, make sure it works, leave it on, root and flash AOKP.

You need to do it on mtd and.mount system first. CM9/AOKP already use these gps drivers so there is no point.

Change it on GB or ICS TW and flash back to an AoSP rom, its stored in NVRAM so it is persistent across flashes, I changed it a long time ago, and have flashed multiple times since and mine is still nulled. Also if you use the newest 3g turbocharger script that supports cdma that is one of the changes made on all settings for it. Just find the script in the v6 thread and run it in script manager if you don't wanna flash back and forth its a quick way to change it. After several tests I've seen same to drastically improved results with the new cdma enabled version of the script. Haven't seen any negative effects at all either the speeds only improve by .1mbps to a few kbps or improve around 700-800kbps. I'm currently getting 1.1-1.7mbps peak and 2-2.8mbps off peak since going to fd24 modem and running the turbocharger
