Hello xda, I have a big problem. Ok, I was flashing my epic 4g touch to boost. I have already flashed my epic 4g to boost, and I tried to use the epic 4g thats flashed to boost as a donor phone. Ok here is the problem, I made mistake and read the NV item numbers from the epic 4g and plugged in my touch and wrote them to my phone. Mind you im not talking about the 4 NV numbers thats necessary to write to phone. What ever NV item I wrote, changedy baseband to d700 el29. Now I know how to flash a modem to get it back to d710, but it also changed my hardware to d700. So if anyone can send me a batch file eith the correct NV numbers that I can rewrite to my phone and get it back to d710 hardware, I will be very thankful. Thanks in advance, all of you devs, are truly epic..... PS, I have my epic 4g touch on boost now, I went back an used the incognito, but 3g not working. Could it be I wrote the wrong set of NV numbers to my phone???
Help please i need nv item numbers!!!!

I have a sprint epic that is on a different service. My problem is its running 2.1. I would like to get it up to 2.2 if possible. or is it safe to one click root?
I do not wanna screw up my service.
(Not sure if i can mention the service its on because some forums don't allow it)
Roms generally don't affect service, unless you flash the wrong modem. 2 things: look at syndicate rom frozen 1.1.0 in the development section and learn how odin works then you will be a much happier epic user. Whatever you do GET OFF 2.1 !!!!

so i can pretty much do the one click root and just dont mess with the modem by flashing anything different and it should be safe to flash those rom?
Mines on boost... you can change the modem np.. and the rom, they don't affect most service settings except mms settings. For tha I recommend apn back up and restore from the market

unfortunately, that is a subject that cannot be discussed on XDA
Is there a way I can use cdma workshop or qpst to change my sprint banner? Well its not sprint its says "acs" because its SFR 1.2.. any nudges in the right direction without having to completely re install a rom?
Note: I'm talking about the "Sprint", or "ACS" depending on your rom, displayed in the pull down menu and in the phone information under the settings menu.

To my understandings, that will just change the network name on the lockscreen, not the pulldown itself
Thanks for the advice.. I'm not really into the whole decompile recompile thing.. it seems risky and since I'm unning unlimited boost I'm not trying to reload my rom. I appreciate any advice, if I find an easier method (I hope so) I'll def inform via this post.

Its a line change deep in the framework. To be able to change it you would have to decompile the framework and change the line back to sprint. If you don't want to go that route then try flashing a theme that is not built on there framework.

I have some totally noob questions about this all and the reality is that I've been wondering. What are the differences between the epic 4g touch and the gs2 on other carriers? When searching the xda forums do I need to be careful about whether certain ROMs are for the epic or another carrier phone? Ive had some problems with my flashing. The starburst RoM bricked my phone for awhile until I was able to find a stock image to restore from. I had backed up right before I flashed but for some reason it didn't finish and I didn't realize so when I went to backup from this starburst rom that put my phone in a continual boot loop I was screwed. I think my phone wont ever be able to go back to new like the day I bought it. Any ideas?
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Im kinda new to this too but i believe this section is for sprint epic touch 4g. Any roms here are for epic touch 4g and they will work. You probably messed up the steps wrong that cuz to bricked ur fone. I flashed few roms work fine included the one u mentioned. Just a lil reminder backup be4 u if flash anythings!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Treat other GS2's as different phones i.e. those roms will not be compatible with the Epic 4G Touch. Stick to the Epic Touch forums for roms/kernels/images, etc.
has anyone successfully performed a wimax backup for the Samsung epic. I know I know you dont need to backup up rsa keys and things like that,but I still would like to backup wimax img so I can see if I can play around with the image to get it to another device. Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would like to do the process through the phone. I have term emu and connectbot. As I stated before any help would be greatly appreciated!!!!!!!!!!!
(SIDE NOTE)If you also have any info on restoring image for different 4g devices sprint offers, I would like assistance with that as well,and i also tried different wimax procedures that was threads such as evo,nexus s, etc, current settings do not work for wimax backup for samsung epic
No responses??????????
It doesn't exist, it probability hard coded and not on the NAND, that the wonders of Samsung
I wish WiMax settings could be adjusted on Nexus like on ET4G.

I think you can edit the MAC address on ET4G with Launcher Pro activities or is that only an Epic thing?

You can? I would have to give it a try on epic touch
still haven't tried launcher pro and wimax editing,still waiting on friend to come with phone

Has anyone tried pulling the app from an E4g and running it on an E4gt? It would be nice to get this working but since wimax is 40 miles away, I'm not in a real hurry.

hey incredibly smart people here,
i bought a d710 off craigslist to replace my ailing evo 4g. when i went to activate it, it didnt do hands free, so we attempted the manual program - when we ##72786# and entered the MSL given by sprint, i get a MODEM EXCEPTION OCCURS then a yes tap box. I also have baseband unknown and hardware unknown. i have tried the Gingerbread flash back to stock rom for people with issues, i have forwarded to the GA10 Stock JB rom, when i ## to program and enter the MSL it brings up the scrtn instead of the error, but there is nothing there, if i hit menu, doesnt do anything. im just frankly perplexed by it all. the hardware works great aside from activation. anyone have any other ideas before i sell it as a phone for metro or whatever, unflashable?
thanks guys!
Never buy phones from cl. Too many chances that your getting somebodys borked phone.
If you can't try it out before you buy it, don't buy it.
Nobody buys a car online and has it delivered by ups, no! You meet and road test the car before you buy it.
Get a refund if you can.
Good luck.

yes, thank you for the lesson. ive bought many before and always had good luck after checking the esn. Anyone have any advice that pertains to my actual phone problem?
Use the EL29 one click and try everything from there.
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1433101
Sounds like it was on aosp rom or something. Just use a oneclick full restore and you should be good to go. Fyi FL24 is latest ota from sprint. Its ics.

Or do as also suggested and try FL24 but I'd think that a gb one click would have the same result.

Long shot but I'm curious - Does the phone work, besides not being activated?
If it does, I'm wondering if you can't do a getprop ril.MSL with adb and seeing if the MSL is correct.
Seeing a lot of posts with the issue, but from CM builds, but no real fix. Unless I'm overlooking it.
Yes the phone works, had it On WiFi and everything works except getting it to activate bc of the no baseband . Can you send me a link to how to do the stuff you're talking about?

Sure. If you're on an ics or jb build, use the following link. If you're on a gb build, its less work. Let us know which build you have.
Here's the link for ics and jb:

Check in Settings->About Phone->Status and write down the Dec MEID.
Then open the back cover and see if it matches.
My guess is that it doesn't.

ok im home to work on the phone agian, i did a GB one-click before i left this morning. I just went into about settings and i got FC, so i cant even see the dec. im going to try the ics oneclick and see what that leaves me with.
ok i did the f24 flash, and it lets me get into the phone info, it says meid and msl as uknown. Ive attached the serial number to my samsung profile and it says it was built in november 2012. its just so perplexing.

OK, first things first then. Take that Dec MEID and check with Sprint to make sure they have the same one. As long as they do and you're okay to activate under that MEID you'll need to reprogram the phone to put that back in. PM me for the details on how to do that.
More than likely the person hosed their EFS data and thought it was borked - deciding to sell instead of fixing it.
