[Q] How the Hell Do I Root This Phone??? - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I have the Sprint Samsung Epic 4G Model SPH - D700 firmware is on 2.3.6.
I have tried several guides on this site and others for rooting this thing and NOTHING is working.
Can someone please explain how to root this thing?

I can link you the how to or I can remote root you via teamviewer?

Start by not asking questions in General forum.
Thank you.

Then you can google How to Root the Samsung Epic and several youtube videos will show up by qbking77. You can use either the EL30 or FC09 versions. All files needed are linked at the end of the video.

[Q] Looking for Stock 2.3.6, Root/CWM

Hello,
I hate to be the noob. I'm coming from the Skyrocket forum where there's a nice stickie with links to all the Root, CWM, and all the available roms & mods.
The Epic 4G forum has a lot of posts and threads and all I have rift now is my phone to browse which makes it harder to search but all I really need are links to the download mode op, the proper CWM version, and a stock, debloated 2.3.6 ROM threads.
I'm trying to help my girlfriend who has the 4G and its running like ****. I won't need any help actually gaining root and flashing given my learned experience with the Skyrocket.
Again, I apologize for being the noob and I'm hoping I wont get flamed too hard. Thanks for your time, your forum, the hard work you do for the 4G and hopefully, your brief effort.

Odin files for build FG01 sprint files

Does anyone have the odin files for the sprint GNexus build FG01? Haven't been able to find them anywhere. I did see a CWM version but looking for the actual odin files.
Wait a while... uploading the FH05 files which are the newest JELLY BEAN stock files by shabbypenguin

Thanks I had seen that post. But am holding off on putting Jelly Bean on the phone. was just trying to find the FG01 odin. It doesn't look like anyone has a copy of it. Of course I can go back to the FD02 release and upgrade from there.
Here is the Odin you requested. Is in the Sprint Gnex Dev thread.... I like to help instead of just scold, but search and thee shall find:thumbup:

Actually if you follow that link it doesn't exist. That's one of the reasons why I asked. got tired of following dead end links.
Pm me and I'll send ya a drop box link

[Q] How to Root my sgh-t999 with the latest update

I need to know how to root my Samsung sgh-t999 with the latest update to Jelly Bean.
Thanks

I suggest cf auto root. Read the whole post.
Easier step by step guides exist for a variety of rooting methods. I think this is the easiest. There are many posts and guides in this very forum.

If you follow directions it's very easy. Download root66, unzip it and flash using odin. You will have rooted jb

Cinci Bell SGH-T999
Greetings! I am a new SGH-T999 owner, not through T-Mobile but through Cincinnati Bell. My previous device is the Sprint GS3, which I Rooted, Flashed, etc extensively, so I have some familiarity with this stuff, but there are some differences between the 2 devices that I have questions about.
My new device is a Cincinnati Bell SG3 SGH-T999 with T999UVDLJA stock ROM:
Is it reasonable to believe this is a T-Mobile variant and I can follow procedures and use ROMs listed for SGH-T999? For example, any reason I can not use the autoroot or the root66 listed here?
Thanks in advance for your help!

You'd probably get a lot quicker answer if you searched the Q&A section or if you started you're own thread instead of taking over someone else's thread that hasnt been posted in for over a month.

[Q] S4 Drivers & Rooting

Hi all,
Hoping someone can confirm the following before I root the S4, thanks.
1. Will updating Samsung Kies on the desktop incorporate the up to date drivers for the phone.
2. Will the Motochopper rooting method by Dan Rosenberg work on the s4 on T-Mobile Uk?
3. Does the CWM method work or any other method, if so are there any links to this, thanks.
Enjoy the phone.
Rgds

Might help if this was posted in Q and A and not general....

This was asked and answer in the root thread. Questions do not belong here. You are in the wrong forum - this is for T-Mobile (US) devices ONLY, not the I9500 or I9505 (you have one of these).
