Sprint Samsung Epic 4G - The Beast Is Here!

Recommended Posts

reinstall samsung drivers. then connect your phone to your computer. make sure usb debugging is turned on.

after connecting handset, make sure to turn on USB storage option on your handset.

Mr Dantool, Thanks a lot for your help, I have sucessfully installed syndicate rom and working fine. Without your kind help I would have not done this task

Once again thanking you for guidance. Will upadate the performance tomorrow.

official curtails on EB13... samsung pulled down updates from their site download page also.. its no longer available for download (see the screen shot).. though the link provided by Hetal is working....

so its better to stick to eclair DI18...

Its not fully restarting. When I checked uptime it showed 7hrs just aftr restart.. its something like restarting explorer in windows.

To check uptime, go to settimgs > about phone > status > up time (its last item in de list...)

As per conversation held with you, it needs to be on Reliance Local 001 prl, that means we can't use Truly Epic with EVDO prl loaded.

Can't get it, how can the prl cause the continuous reboot.

Dear Tarun

you can try evdo prl, i said local prl coz. as i do not have evdo activated i never used that prl.

prl has to be flashed coz. you said that you have that circle on top instead of signal bars , thats why a reliance prl has to be flashed.

freinds i am giving here the way i flashed the truly epic rom :

1. i downloaded : Odin Eb13 extended -> it will give you recovery preinstalled

http://www.multiupload.com/6ZCARWCFVU

2. i downloaded the rom from

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971105

Copied trulyEpic v3 to sdcard

3. Extracted the 1. to pc. started odin, put the phen in downloading mode and connected it to the pc using usb cable.

selected the .pit file in pit and extended.tar in the pda section , selected auto reboot and phone efs clear on the left and started flash.

4. after flash let the phone start, than put it on recovery pressing volume up,power and camera than imediate volume down,power and camera, the phone goes to clockworkmod recovery, wipe data/ cache and than flash the truly epic rom from sd card.

5. after the flash is completed reboot the phone.

and so now you on truly epic rom.

issues what i faced and how i solved them.

1. no signal so i flashed the rilance local 0001 prl.

2. phone started but data was not working so i used the the software provided to me by one of the guru : (thank you devAlap)

http://mobile5.in/forums/index.php?/topic/307-data-provisioning-ppp-and-evdo-configuration/

made a dumo file and flashed it.

and my data was working.

3. there are a few issues in the rom for that the patches are at

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=971105 post 2

after applying the patches you need to clean wipe again.

and you have a fully working truly epic without any issues at all.

sincere thanks to all the gurus who helped me in doing this.

i have been giving cyanogen mod a try and apart from its native quirks, no reboot issues at all... this is funny since its running the eb13 radio and no change to the prl either. this points more fingers then at the kernel... the answer could be in there somewhere... maybe the devs at xda could look into

Basically, EB13 needs another rom on it.... It won't work without it.... And is clear from various posts....
