[Q] Epic 4g stucked in download mode.

Hi! I've tried to update mi epic to 2.3.4 with the eh06 leak, when i start the process with odin, got stucked on setting up connection, after a few minutes a unplug the cable and try to reboot my epic, wont boot and only can get into download mode i've tried on different usb ports, different cables, different roms, and nothing always get stucked at the beggining of the process, i really don't know what to do now i don't wanna pay to someone for doing what i know i can do! if anyone of you can help me, i'll be very grateful with you! thanks.

Just keep trying. maybe try a newer version of odin. Mine did that a few times, I just closed odin and tried again every time

Yeah, keep trying. I have better luck with a fully charged battery. I have had Odin freeze several times in the past 2 weeks as well.

Take out your battery, leave it out for 30 seconds, then with it still out, go to download mode and odin. If that doesn't work try a different cable and/or usb port.

Follow Z's advice and go into download mode with no battery. The usb cable will power the phone. Then Odin from there.

My phone sort of died on me today. Odin refused to flash, so I used Heimdall, and that fixed it up.

i will try this at night! what steps do you follow? thanks!

I followed the steps here:

Were you using the phone slot for the tar file or pda? Think a complete tar needs to go into the pda slot. Correct me if I'm wrong.

Are you using an international GS2?
No.
Then why the heck would you flash an international rom?

well i was think they were all the same

If the past threads are any indication your pretty much out of luck.

Try using Odin to go back to full stock if you can get into download mode. I think that's your only hope
Sent from my Nexus S 4G using Tapatalk

I think only mobile odin might be able to help you as you cannot see the device n your computer. If you can get the APK for mobile odin which can be found on XDA, put it on you sd card an install, then get an stock odin Rom and run it from your phone.
Can you also edit your title of this thread, it is pretty deceiving...
Hopefully this method works for you.

Yes I agree quite a few people have done this and lets not have anyone else get themselves caught up like you did. Please change the title and edit out your first post stating what happened to you... Good Luck

You're lucky it even booted and that it is not completely FUBARed. Since you can't connect to odin, as stated, try mobile ODIN.

Yup, Mobile Odin is the only option if you can't connect to PC
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

i hear that the bluetooth is the only radio that works. so. get the mobile odin apk, bluetooth transfer that over and hopefully you have a ODIN rom on there already cuz, frankly, it will be an insane pain in the ass to transfer one over bluetooth.
I guess a kernel/recovery would be easier and get your usb connected...
good luck.

well it look like im have to Bluetooth everything in a min imma put a video of the damage i have done to myself

Just to add more salt to the OP's wound: lulz.
Listen to the guys who are telling you to flash back through mobile ODIN, that's probably the only way you're going to get back to a normal working state on your phone.

IMO there are two hurdles with Mobile ODIN:
1) I believe it requires root, which you wouldn't have after flashing the stock Intl software
2) If this phone isn't being recognized even when it can be booted to ODIN D/L mode, then the USB support in the bootloader is already messed up. I don't believe Mobile ODIN can flash the bootloader
Hopefully I'm wrong and you can get it working.

Flash a kernel with clockwork on mobile odin... And then flash everything u need

There is a Guy on the forums that can jTag it. Should work, but i do believe his services come with a fee.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

I did the same thing to my phone
Sorry to be the person with the worst news that you really dont want to hear but
the phone is toast......there is only one option that can help you .....JTAG this is a service that fixes this for 50 bucks they will reflash the system back to it and get it working again mobile odin wont work because when you flashed the rom it took out the root so mobile wont work only way is 1 jtag service or if your lucky like i was send it back(within warranty period) and say it was a bad flash of an ota update that came through .......hope this helps but i have did this and everything you could think is not gonna work only what i just told you trust me it pissed me off so bad that i didn't read the post before i flashed it

Really sorry to hear.
This could be why manufacturers want to lock the bootloader so this doesn't happen.
You wouldn't think someone who would attempt this would be this foolish...

Do a battery pull. What were you flashing on top of what, from which recovery? Try wiping cache/format.

It might help people to know what you were doing just before this happened.
Were you flashing something (what?) via Odin, recovery, cwm touch recovery?
If you were in the middle of flashing a modem I don't believe you should try a battery pull but if you were flashing a ROM and got stuck on reboot then I think it's safe (I did it earlier today but wait for more informed responses from people who know more).

I was flashing CM9 over an older version. Is there a way to go back to stock and then go from the start? Using Odin?

Pull battery and try again...or 3 button recovery and factory reset...
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium

Still staying in that Screen. What i can do is go into recovery mode. Is there anything I can do from recovery mode?

yes i can get into odin mode

If you can go into Odin mode then flash one of sfhub's one click packages.
edit: I'm not familiar with cm9 builds at all, maybe you should check with one of the devs as to whether it's safe to odin a one click over cm9, just to be on the safe side.

Before you resort to a battery pull, especially if Odin never recognized your phone (no COMxx showed up in the Odin screen) you can hold down the power button on your phone and reboot.
I don't know that one (battery pull) or the other (power cycle) is better but I always try to power cycle my phone before I resort to pulling the battery, if for no other reason than preserving the life of my battery cover (those little clips wouldn't be hard to break).

Btw having i9100 doesn't necessarily mean someone flashed the international version of the software. I don't know the reasoning behind it but when I have the yellow triangle show up it is almost always accompanied by the i9100 text.

thank you so much for your help. won't do this again when i am tired.

Rooting P930

Ive had this phone for about a week and it came with software version bell 20e on ICS. My WiFi worked but was only able to get gsm data speed.(below 3g). I tried flashing many ROMs but my WiFi wouldn't work on any of them (only on the ICS Rom the phone came with). Then I tried 2 unbrick method to try and flash a new baseband/firmware (not sure which is which)... the first one gave me the original Korean ROM with all the Korean apps(I believe it was 18f kdz). The second one gave me the att ROM (10f kdz). The Korean one gave me WiFi and data but I could not root (tries superoneclick a million times and also tried manual cmd method). The att one gave no WiFi and I haven't tried the data.
My main goal is to be rooted so I can flash cm 10 or 10.1 with at least 3g data and WiFi. I actually really like this phone but all these road bumps are making me want to settle with my old phone optimus 2x. Can anyone help me please? The phone came from China I believe. My carrier is fido in Canada.

FINALLY, I'm rooted. I had to change some things around in the Path Variable string, then i tried Superoneclick first try rooted. Now Installing CMW and flashing roms, I assume i just download Rom Manager from the play store and flash cmw like that right?
So.. Is my phone bricked completely? I tried using cmd to flash 2.3.5 ATT stock.. when i typed in the first code (dd if=/sdcard/boot.img of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p8) to put boot.img from sdcard to phone, it said that there was no space. However the other codes worked just fine. Then when i turned off the phone to try and put it in recovery mode as the guide instructed my phone screen remains off. Is my phone dead?

Ouch not a good sign. You will know by this hold down volume up and plug into the computer if it goes into download mode you are good but if the screen stays off and the computer gives you an error it is dead and will need to be sent off for repair. Good luck.
