I think I bought a bricked phone? ?? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I bought a phone from craigslist, the ad did say that the phone was stuck on firmware update failed, screen , I though well if I can get it to download mode then I can flash with odin. I got there and turned it on whent to download mode no problem. I get home hook it up to my pc put it in download mode and nothing, odin doesnt recognized it at all. My pc didnt make a sound. Then I tried with keys the emergency recovery tool. But nothing. Well its asking for recovery code. But my device not registered, cannot get to recovery mode eather. I looked and when the phone is in download mode, it sais, i900 modle, but its a d710 . Did someone flash the wrong stuff .. I don't really mind the loos. I knew it was a good possibility. But if you have any ideas for me I would appreciate it.

Wow my grammar sucked in that post. I can't even blame that one on being ESL. Lol. I meant I see much more. Haha.
Once I've gotten the hang of the intricacies of flashing on a Samsung device and the whole emmc lockup issue I'll start getting to work on some developing. Gotta see how different a Sammy device is from an HTC one. Also just finished up my first year of college so summer has officially started now.
Should be fun times here! Much more friendly from what I've seen compared the highly volatile and dangerous minefield known as the 3D forums lately. Boy has it gotten bad. Many devs have left xda too. Crazy stuff man.
私のEVO 3Dから送信される。

(please don't lock) just some food for thought.

figured i'd share this experience with my fellow epic users.
anyway tonight i made a quick run to the grocery store before it closed, mind all of you this is a 10 min trip to,grab and check out, and back home. as i get half way to the store i realized i forgot my phone and got irate. saying to myself "how could you forget that of all things" and honest to what ever greater power there is i stopped and almost went back home for it. and i really had to stop myself and say "what the **** are you doing? it's not even that serious."
i know some are gonna come with the cool story bro line. but i really took this as a sign that i need to lighten up on material things. i was really willing to risk getting my phone and skip grabbing some form of nourishment.
Watch the movie the transcendant man. Its on netflix. The main character has a crazy idea that computers will eventually shrink to the size of blood cells and we will become human hybrids of technology. Computers have already shrunk from taking up a whole room to sitting in our pockets in a short amount of time, so his idea makes sense.

Just Wanted to Say Thanks!!

Had to do some traveling for work, and landed in an airport with terrible SPRINT coverage on the modem that works best in my area. I had some emails that had to go out so I changed the modem and back in business in three minutes.
Now I'm sitting in my hotel room on Foxfi working and not on their pay-for-use internet service. Without all the help from everyone here, this travel day could have been disastrous and a lot more expensive.

That probably wouldn't be all that hard to put together.
I honestly have no idea what modem works the best in my part of Pittsburgh, but that is only because the tower by my house has known capacity issues. Apparantly Sprint knows about it and is going to fix it soon.
If i ever get speeds faster than my old dialup modem from the late 90s, I might be able to put something together. I am looking for a job at the moment and only have Internet on my phone for now to save money.

[Q] sph-d710 double brick

I got my fancy new sgs2 e4gt and immediately tried to flash cyanogenmod. Unfortunately, I didn't pay close enough attention to model numbers and ended up flashing the wrong kernel. Upon reboot, I could only get as far as the splash screen which now had the yellow triangle on it.
While trying to fix it, I still failed to watch the model numbers and ended up flashing another wrong kernel again. It was a bad day for me. This resulted in breaking the micro usb port. Nothing will recognize the phone anymore.
I apologize, but I don't remember which kernels they were. I did this back in December.
Furthermore, I can only get to two screens. The first is a screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." The other is the Odin download screen. I can't get into recovery or anything.
I've tried a variety of things (including a USB jig) but without USB and recovery I can't do too much. I'm thinking I might have to try JTag, but I wanted to see if anyone has any other ideas before I go there. Any thoughts?
Your not bricked, you just don't know how to read.
I suggest reading the development section of the Epic 4G Touch and then read some more.
Btw... wrong section, this is a question.

Please use this > http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2191954 and stay away from mods until you understand how things work. Well at least if you don't want to full brick you device.
The key to everything is... READ. :good:
Maybe you should try one of these!

They don't brick as easy, and also try posting in the proper section like questions & answers, help & troubleshooting.

Welcome to xda-developers forum, marcsimusMaximus! This is a great forum with great, helpful people (and amazing developers), but sometimes people seem a bit cranky, immature, and so bored with their lives that they have to clutter threads with a bunch of nattering nonsense. As was previously stated, you do need to read the forum rules and post correctly, as well as pay more attention to the wealth of information already posted regarding flashing and avoiding various pitfalls.
Good luck!

I got my fancy new sgs2 e4gt and immediately tried to flash cyanogenmod. Unfortunately, I didn't pay close enough attention to model numbers and ended up flashing the wrong kernel. Upon reboot, I could only get as far as the splash screen which now had the yellow triangle on it.
While trying to fix it, I still failed to watch the model numbers and ended up flashing another wrong kernel again. It was a bad day for me. This resulted in breaking the micro usb port. Nothing will recognize the phone anymore.
I apologize, but I don't remember which kernels they were. I did this back in December.
Furthermore, I can only get to two screens. The first is a screen that says "Firmware upgrade encountered an issue. Please select recovery mode in Kies & try again." The other is the Odin download screen. I can't get into recovery or anything.
I've tried a variety of things (including a USB jig) but without USB and recovery I can't do too much. I'm thinking I might have to try JTag, but I wanted to see if anyone has any other ideas before I go there. Any thoughts?

Wow cm10 that's heavy!
How similar is the Fascinate to the Captivate? Looking for a stable upgrade for a slightly used Cap that my son wants to flash to boost.
Your input and wisdom will be greatly appreciated.

Its almost exactly the same. Just different bloatware because of different providers.

Yeah, all the original Galaxy S phones should have CM10.1 nightlies. These phones just won't die.

They were and still are great devices. The Galaxy S lines are what made Samsung so huge in the Android scene.

I am proud to say.. I converted my GF from crApple to the GS4

After about an hour in Best Buy and their new "Samsung" section... my GF will be buying the GS4 this summer (her upgrade is in June) and will be switching after being an iPhone/iPad/iPod (etc) user for 2+ years. HOORAY ANDROID!

Don't get your hopes up too high. Women change their minds like they change clothes before a party. " This summer" could be a few weeks or months and who knows.
Makes perfect sense

Why do you care which phone your wife is using. You should let her use whatever phone she likes, not trying to "convert" her. It's a phone, not a relIgion.

I don't think he cares... I think he's saying it would be nice to see her use something else besides an apple product.

BINGGGOO! Plus she's always complaining how slow her phone is, how it's always freezing, always draining the battery from 100%-0% within 5 hours, and a bunch more things. Will be nice to see her with a great phone and not a stupid crApple phone! Plus now we can do this if ya catch my drift

No. Your comment was "thats nice no offense but who cares" aka you should've probably kept your mouth shut and just moved onto the next thread if had nothing relevant to the convo.
There's a lot of wives on their husbands accounts today...
Congrats. When we went phone shopping I told my wife I would only buy her a phone if she left her iPhone and got the S3. Lol two days after we got are phones she gave her iPhone away and never looked back. She loves the NFC and ease of picture sharing.

LOL. I remember this thread I saw once and that said something like "Someone please help me, I'm logged into my husbands account and I saw that another member was sending him pictures through PM, what can I do?"
And everyone was like "Get marriage counseling." until a mod closed the thread haha
I don't see why you call it crApple. I personally like iPhones. They are just boring. They are good for people who want something simple, or don't have the time to customize. Sure, apple likes to squeeze every cent out in some places. But when you think about it, up till the iPhone 5, every apple product used the same charger. Everything was synced through iTunes. I love using iTunes. I wish android and apple would work together so I could sync using iTunes. You don't need to convert her if she likes it.
