4g reboots - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Has anyone figured out why phone reboots after having 4g on for maybe at least 30 mins?? I dont think its kernel related, never got reboot using frankenstein rom with fe16 kernel but any other rom with same kernel and boom, reboots like a mutt!!! Dont member getting them with an aosp rom either

First things first... What rom are you running?

known bug on TW ICS leaks. Fix? None. Aosp roms dont suffer from this. I suppose once roms are built from source then there may be a fix

Ive been getting random reboots since gingerbread but dont member roms..in ics i never got a reboot usin frankenstein rom and i do use alot of 4g thats how i member

I've never had this problem and I've went thru a few ics leaks. But then again all I do is sfhub's one-clicks and stay stock. That must suck, I honestly can't see me on sprints slow 3g if I had that issue. I'll go crazy without my 4g :banghead:

Ok well the random reboot if gotten simply from not doing a clean flash. Redownload and start fresh flash. It should stop. And its not just ics leaks it has happened since GB for thia same reason.

Are you using the app? I get a timeout even with wifi or 4g connected then it reloads on its own. That fb app is a mess.. You would think with all that money they have they'll at least hire a good developer to give us a decent app!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA

Yeah the app sucks specially when u combine it with sprints .070 KBps 3g speeds!

I am pretty sure this problem is caused by the hacked hotspot app.
Anyone having reboots running a rom that DOESN'T have the hacked hotspot?
Or try wifi tether?
I have mainly run sfhub's one clicks also and have never had an unexpected reboot.
But, i just use wifi tether and not the sprint hotspot

Going out on a limb....
Dl-ing weird euro-porn by the TB?
I also havent heard of radio related rebooting before, and Ive used almost every ICS rom thats dropped on 2 different E4GTs AND have done horrible, horrible things to my net settings trying to perfect my connectivity. I have used 4g daily for testing and have 3g going strong at an average of 1.5Mbps or so.
Im with guy-whos-name-I-cant-remember-now in thinking you have some element you arent accounting for. You have anything in mmcblk0p12? It would not be cleared by any popular wipe script. Neither would wimax settings....
Reprovision, reset DSA and call it a day. If you still random-reboot, kernel panic due to any number of things.

Had it on every ics leak...no problems with cm9 and aokp. I'm on 4g 10 hours a day, so it kinda of sucks when it happens...oh well, it'll get fixed eventually.

Love Hate relationship. Return it?

I absolutely LOVE everything about this phone EXCEPT the LOS issues!!
I've only had it for 5 days now and experienced 3 LOS!
Since I'm still within 14 days, should I return it? thinking of getting the Photon instead.
From personal experience I'd say hang on to it and try flashing some of the newer releases to see if it doesn't improve the LOS issue.

I know you are asking because apparently you need the help of others to make up your mind... (sorry I am a smartass) But quick question what rom are you on cuz buddy LOS is a thing of the past up in herrrre... And that PHoton are you serious would you trade in your S clase Benz for a C Class Benz....
Root that sucka and flashing one of the stock EL29 roms or do the upgrage on your phone for the complete stock version... Oh yea and if you gonna ask where the roms are then maybe you should return your phone...LOL (smartass again)
exactly, flash something different (I'd recommend calks) and that issue goes away :O

Doesn't even need to flash roms, root, and all that. Just OTA to EL29 and it should get rid of the issue.
Hey playya like the benz analogy, I was thinkin the same thing about the photon swap.
Yea update your phone dawg LoS was fixed officially in december
If you have Los on EK02+ get a replacement

I'm on EL29 version 2.3.6 running fully stock since there was no reason to go custom until now.
and thanks for all the help so far. looks like I'll either update to latest stock version or go custom.

I think almost everyone on this forum experienced frequent LOS until Sprint issued a firmware update that fixed it. I haven't experienced LOS since and it would happen to me several times a day. Update your firmware and you should see this go away. (my recommendation is to go with Calk's non-ICS firmware since it's probably the most stable at the moment)

Sounds like you need to get your phone replaced. The loss of service was fixed with ek02. el29 was the update after ek02 and it's the most recent update. You shouldn't be having any problems.
And you're flat out insane if you step down to a photon.

I'd definitely suggest Call's E4GT rom its one of the better ones out there, i havent had any issues with LoS but i did just get my phone in december. But for sure keep this phone !

Yea, I would try flashing Calk's EL29. It should solve the LOS issues while improving the phone in mutliple other areas as well.
If that doesn't work, just take ot back to Sprint and replace it with another one. I would highly recommend staying with this phone though, not the Photon.

I was initially going to flash to Calks ROM anyway but this phone was pretty awesome out of the box until the LOS issue.
I think it's safe to say Im keeping this phone since there seems to be a fix for LOS

Exactly my thought... OP, as you are on EL29 you should not be experiencing LOS. Are you sure what you are experiencing is actually LOS, and not just poor Sprint service?
I'm not an expert flasher but the devs here have made it so simple I've been able to play around with several of the ICS releases but I always return to sfhub's stock-rooted EL29 and get amazing performance out of it.

I believe so. It says something to the effect of no service and roaming charges will be applied. So i'm assuming thats LOS.

If your phone is up to date I wouldn't flash anything on it. Just take it to a store and get it replaced. The LOS issue has been fixed. Unless your counting the ghost LOS problem. I had that one until I switched to EL29.

Gps issues

I'm currently running blazer 4.1 with fc07 modem and gunslinger kernel. No matter what Rom I use, gb or ics, as well as testing with different modems, my gps will lock the first couple times but after coming out of a long sleep it won't lock at all. I've tried gps status with no luck, as well as tried the el29 gps fix when I was running that modem. The only thing that seems to work is booting into recovery and clearing cache and dalvik. This will get my gps to lock until my phone goes into another long sleep, then back to nothing. Does anyone know of any other fixes I could try?
Sent from my Blazing fast Epic 4G Touch
Have you cleared AGPS? Also try using a different kernel.
I've tried every combination of everything. I just reboot and that never fails to work. A little annoying, but, no big deal.
I figured it was just a bug in the ICS leaks. Mine also does the same.
Yes, I've reset agps and downloaded through gps status but nothing helps. I'll try a different kernel next, but even when I was on the ics roms and using the stock kernels it would do the same thing.
Sent from my Blazing fast Epic 4G Touch
I had gps lock issues too, but after trying most modems I found one that doesn't seem to have any problems. Make sure you update your profile and prl after flashing modems /kernels

Sounds like u might just have a hardware problem and need a new phone. My first phones GPS was awful and wouldn't lock and my replacement is perfect. Trust me Samsung phones are all different. My epic touch is different than yours and so on. Take it to sprint and get another one.

Never had a problem with a lock on any GB Roms with any kernel or Modem...Ever since I flashed ICS Roms tho...is when it started...None of the (GPS) programs to improve locking would work...The last two leaks for ICS which would be FC06 and FCO7 I've been gettin locks...So its not a hardware problem...One sure way to get it to work is to restore a GB Rom with EL29 get a lock leave GPS Open boot into Recovery and restore a Nandroid Backup for the ICS Rom you were on...Open GPS and you will lock... this worked every time...But now since the last two leaks of the two previous ones I mentioned I haven't had a problem...So its either the Modem or the Kernel...I expect the Modem...The problem is on here a lot of people haven't had locking issues with GPS whether they are on ICS or GB...(Go Figure...)

My GPS worked at one time, but not at all since ICS, and MAYBE the last two revisions of GB. Tried every trick in the book, even goong back to old modems. Hoping this is addressed on software soon, or I may turn the phone in. Not a dealbreaker, but a huge PITA, I do use it somewhat often. Then there's the principle of a defective product.

I also thought it is not a big deal until I took the bike at 11:30 pm for a ride and (I know this sounds dumb) but I got lost and when I tried to reboot, the battery decreased suddenly from 50 something to only 7%.

I have GPS issues on my stock EL29. It was working previously but then I installed the ICS leaks and my GPS stopped working. Went back to complete stock and its still not working. Bummer.
After doing a full wipe and install of the stock rooted el29 tar, I finally got gps to lock successfully multiple times. I left gps locked and flashed blazer 4.1 and all is still good. Do you think its safe to do an advanced restore of data in recovery or should I just restore everything manually?

Low 4G Speed On ICS Roms

Okay so here is my story.
I have had this phone since it was first released. I have rooted my phone successfully and I have been using custom rom's since gingerbread.
Whenever I install ICS roms, the 4G will always fall to <100kbps on the speed test app. When I go back to gingerbread the 4G speeds are normal.
I've tried about 20 different ICS modems and kernels on various ICS roms and I get the same results.
Just today I went to the Sprint store and got my phone replaced thinking maybe I just had a bad phone. I just installed another ICS ROM and I'm getting the same Bull**** 4G speeds... WTF (I'm tight)
Any advice, tips, ideas, or am I just a duncebat?

I get that same problem. And it gets stranger still. I pay for 30Mbps internet at home. If I speed test on my computer, I get 30, or damn close to it. But when I speed test on my phone, I get a whopping 10. Since wimax is wifi, I am guessing that its a problem in the modem related to wifi. Anyone else experiencing this?

[DISCUSSION] FG20 Build

This is a thread to discuss the FG20 build for the Boost Mobile version for our phone.
As to my knowledge there are no issues running it on our Epic 4G Touch without of course a simple APN fix to get MMS.
What we've noticed is that its a more polished version of FF18 and what we should have essentially gotten for our phone.
I would like to know your experiences on FG20 and how it's running for you.
And note any bugs you notice please!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
Everything seems fine, some (but fewer than FF18) apps FC on me. The multitask bug is still there, I haven't tested if the exchange bug is still there. Battery life seems a bit sketchy, but better than FF18's. This is near 92-95% percent of what our ICS update should have been in the first place.

I not sure to try the full ROM because I only flash the modem and can't even make a good call 95% of calls drop on me and the people I tell to call me they all went directly to my Voice mail.

I'm not sure what you're questioning, but I'll try to be more specific. After trying the FG20 ROM/Modem and realizing that it had no roaming option, I first reverted to a backup of FF18 ROM, keeping the FG20 Modem. But FF18 has an annoying WiFi issue where it often disconnects while in sleep mode. So I then restored old reliable a.k.a Blazer 4.1 ROM which doesn't have any issues whatsoever, or at least any that bothered me. The modem itself, whether EL29, FF18 or FG20, all performed about the same regardless of ROM type, so as of yet, there is no reason to go back to an earlier version than FG20.
Bottom line, when I mentioned WiFi issues, they had nothing to do with modems..... I think.
I am still trying to figure out what makes these builds so different.

If you're in the northern/north eastern part of the US some of your problem may be due to sandy and the associated storms up there. There was a lot of infrastructure damage to the networks of all carriers up there, but with sprints infrastructure being overloaded already the damage puts even more strain on the remaining parts of the network that are functional from users being offloaded from damaged/downed towers to ones that are functioning. They were saying there would be network outages and slower speeds/increased dropped/missed calls from Minnesota east as far south as Missouri thru north Carolina. They are working on getting it back up currently and they are going ahead and doing the NV and LTE deployment instead of just patching up the damaged old towers.

What Kernel are you on? If you're not running a stock kernel, 4g speeds get borked. I got 8mpbs down on stock, then would flash a JB rom and wouldn't break 1mpbs -- it would stick right around 650kpbs. Then I could flash right back to stock and speeds would be back up. I'd try flashing back to stock and see if that's it. If so, the only other kernel that I've found that doesn't break 4g is AGATS FI27 stock repack.

Soo i tried exactly wat you said...switched to AGats fi27 and i also changed my modem to fi27
then i updated prl and profile and now im gettting 10 mbs down and 2.5up
kinda wierd that fi25 was that horrible....im running blazer rom ics but all is fine now just have a yellow triangle in the middle during boot
but i can live with it for now until i actually feel like fixing my phone with a new rom and theme lol but thank you
It is so odd how source built kernels destroy data speeds. Don't make since. Its true. That's why blazer ROM always ran stock and it runs great

I personally found using FI03 kernel did better for me. Might have to retest again

You can use the triangle away app in the play store. All the triangle means is that a custom kernel has been flashed, doesn't mean that there's anything wrong with the phone.

Funny. I tried it and my DL speeds topped out at 600kbps then restored my nan and went right back up to 9mbps. Weird.
