[Q] semi-broken epic, clone to bad esn epic?

So I bought a bad esn epic and a boost phone and successfully cloned the boost phone to the bad esn epic. So I have two epics right now (one for each ear?). As you can see in my other completely unanswered post I was debating whether or not to sell the new one.
I've decided to stay with sprint for a bit longer but I want to keep the replacement phone they sent me in the box. Unopened that is!
My original epic has a busted battery connector which I have bent a bit so it will stay on as long as I don't jar it, so I can read data off of it with CDMA workshop etc. The busted battery thingy is why Sprint replaced it for some cash of course.
So I want to clone my epic over to the bad esn epic. I can't figure out what I'm missing, I cant get the 3g to work (I haven't even tried the 4g). I'm sorta following the epic to boost instructions but I must be missing something.
Is this just copying the thing over in CDMA workshop?
Help please?? Pretty please? With sprinkles on top?
(I have to beg 'cause no one answered my other q )
super-grassy-ass in advance. I hope..............

Can't talk about that in here. It's against the forum rules.

Doesn't matter, it's still about cloning an esn.

Hey, if you are an admin, then just close the thread.
If you are not an admin, why are you offering responses that don't have anything to do with my question?
If you're correct the proper people will handle it. In the meantime perhaps you could troll another thread.
There are threads about flashing your phone to a different carrier, that's allowed. Cloning esn's just isn't. I think there was a thread in q&a within the past week or so.

Another useful response, eh? I did do a search, but of course it's possible I missed the thread you're talking about.Thanks for adding posts to the thread though, that should generate some help for me. Or for you

I'm not trying to be a ****, just letting you know what the rules are before an admin gets involved in the thread.

And your telling me that would help how, exactly? You may not be trying but I think you are succeeding. Do you police your neighborhood and make citizen's arrests as well? You may be right but wtf?
You're right, you win. I'll leave your thread now.

Why would you post this instead of just going away? Are you one of those thread trolls that also needs the last word?? I'm having trouble figuring out any of your motivations here except verbosity.
And while I stand by my comments, I apparently got out of the wrong side of the bed this morning. :-(

Actually, the way I see it by both my thread count, and thanks count, I clearly present some value to the Epic forum. You on the other hand, decide you want to flame back at someone when they are just nicely informing you of the forum rules, like a good member of the forum would. There was nothing mean or trollish about my first post in this thread.
Wow, I see you changed your OP. Guess something I said must have been right.
No esn cloning. Please, instead of fighting with one of our arguably best themers, ask somewhere else. A quick google search pulls up the info you want. You obviously have not exhausted all your resources before asking here.
Here's a useful response.
We don't allow discussion of esn closing.

How to flash Galaxy s2

I bought a phone for my mom for christmas and when I tried to activate it the sprint rep told me that the the phone is still activated on another account. So now Im trying to sell it for someone who needs it for Metro or Boost. But people are charging $60+ to flash it. Now , Im already going to lose money , I just dont want to lose more by flashing it for $60. Anyone know how to flash it or if theres anything I can still do to this phone to activate it on Sprint.

#1 there is a lot of info in the general section if you search. How-To's and such.
#2 this is the dev section. Please ask/PM a mod to move it into the Q&A. *beat me to it*

How about this guy's guide?...http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2073003
just youtube qbking77, all answers you need should be there.
Post it on Craigslist without flashing to metro. I'm sure someone that can flash it themselves might want it. Some retail stores,whom flash to metro, also buy phones.

That's why you don't buy phones from crack heads.

Google Chris41g Boost Epic 4G and you'll find a guide to Boost.
Works on this phone and will work for other carriers as well if you know the missing pieces.

[Q] Contact list sorting issue and bluetooth pairing

I have a Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch. My contact list is synced to the phone in Last Name, First Name order from the computer , but when I pair the device to my vehicle, it appears First name, Last name.
The vehicle does not have a bluetooth option to sort the list in reverse order.
The device stores the list in a file called 'vnd.sec.contact.phone'
My question is this......When the device sends the file over to the vehicle (or any other device to which it is paired), is it always in the order sorted, or is it defaulted to First name, Last name????

While your question is general enough that any answer given here might apply to you, you have posted this question in the wrong forum.
This post is currently in the forum for the GT-I9100, a GSM phone that does not even work on Sprint's CDMA network.
The Epic 4G Touch variant of the Galaxy SII has its own forum at http://forum.xda-developers.com/forumdisplay.php?f=1281
And sorry, I do not know the answer to your question. But I'd venture a guess that it is an issue with your vehicle's software not having the option to sort your contact list as you want to. Not really an issue with Android, or the Epic 4G Touch.
Need to move thread

Ok, sorry. Sprint calls the device Galaxy SII Epic 4G Touch so I put it in that forum.
Can you please switch it over to the correct forum?
Thank you.
PS: BMW says it is not the software, Sprint says it doesn't know, and Samsung......well they blame it on Google OS. Try getting in touch with a live person at Google who will help you.
That's why I come here.

No.... you didn't. You put it in the Galaxy S II I9100 forum. This is NOT the Epic 4G Touch forum. I provided a link to the Epic 4G Touch forum above in post 2. You can report it to moderators to move the thread by clicking the /!\ symbol next to your first post.

Let's make sure we're talking about the same thing. From what I understand you saying, you're saying you have your contact list sorted in your phone by last name, right? But when you sync your phone to your car, the car's software will not sort by last name when viewing your contact list on your car's screen? Is that right? And there is no option in your car's screen to sort your contacts by last name? Or is it that the names are sorted in last name order, but display them as firstname lastname?
Please ask moderator to move it and the issue I have no idea

I haven't ranted in a while but this time it's due..
I really don't get you.. You start threads all over so there is no excuse for you not knowing that Questions go in Q&A. You must know the rules (at least somewhat) because you harped on Garwynn and I for going off topic.
It's people like you that tick me off. And I hope you don't come back with a reply like "I'm just a kid" since we have 13 year olds here who are developers.
You have started threads and people tell you to use the search function and you would have found your answer. Hell, you don't even look outside of the E4GT Section.. Just like your question on deodexing.
You've asked for help, I tried to advise on other issues and you completely ignore what I or any other very helpful replies you've had.
So to answer your question, here's the last spoon I give you. Congratulations, you've made the second person I've used the ignore button on.
Figure it out from here..
i searched the topic and cant find it. btw i meant to post in the Q&A. sorry about that. also im sorry about not listening to your advice on the GC01 thread. there was just no other way to explain it. and i would like a mod to please move this thread to Q&A.

Yes it can be done. It will require some foot work and very heavy reading on your end.
All the info you need to do it can be found (directly or indirectly) in this thread.
