Epic 4G ROM on Nexus S 4G - Nexus S Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hardware is identical except that NS4G has the NFC and no flip keyboard.
I bet if you flash one of their ROMs and then Netarchy's kernel it'll work just fine.
What do you think?

No... dear lord... just no

I posted over at the Epic forum and they got ours to work on the Epic. But it doesn't just work out of the box. There are some things which need to be moded.

oh you guys are so smart with those comments

Can u post the rom for epic 4g. Ill do it
Uncle Jimmy says hello

No, it's not a matter of doing it. This was a question to someone who could answer it. Obviously the two you've seen were not technically oriented to be able to even have a guess.
The answer to this, if you follow the link I posted from the epic forum, is that some minor adjustments need to be made to the ROM it'self before it can be successfully flashed following with a kernel. If you don't, you'll get an error in the recovery or at best the phone will boot but not have all the functions.
So the guys from the Epic forum answered my question and they are happy I brought it up because they'll have a pure GB ROM on their phone with all the new stuff included.
Makes me wish I got the Epic. At least there, my questions would have been answered better.

wow first, they can boot a stock aosp rom because they have a .35 cm7 kernel, we on the other hand dont have a .32 kernel, or a .35 touchwiz kernel. and yes most of the rom.. should work (save for anything to do with radio) on the epic (again with the correct kernel) and most of the people there are happy because any thoughts of gingerbread give them giggles. they have a gb rom already, its cm7 and its halfway working, but it wont be because of teh nexus s 4g. its because they have some of teh best devs working on it. the reason why their rom wont work is because touchwiz is heavily integrated into it, we dont have the support for that (yet, who knows what someone may try to port over) prime example look at the sense rom and tell me how many of those things are working? the epic is as close to the nexus s 4g as it is to the motorola razr. they share the same radio and chipset and a few other random parts and pieces how the ril is used is completely different, how the gps is run is totally different.
how's that for an answer? if you wanna swap to the epic i know plenty of guys that are in the epic irc channel that would gladly trade with you.

Thank you. That was better than the other post.

[Resolved] Question about ported Eris roms

Sent from my Eris using XDA App
Really...??? No-one can help me with this simple question? Thats dissapointing Ive since done a little research on porting but i still dont know the answer to my above question. So again, the sprint and hero ROM ports on jCases "Known Eris ROMs, Hacks and Patches" thread, can i flash those and still use my phone on verizon or is it the otherway around..? Flash and use phone with sprint instead of verizon? I JUST WANT TO FLASH THESE ROMS!!! They look better then some of the 2.1 sense based ROMs and I'm NOT ready for Froyo yet, but before i flash i must have this question answered!!! I dont want to mess ANYTHING up to do with the actual carrieirs. please help

There's a thread on how to dump your current phone in the dev forums - it's 2-3 pages down, was a hot item 3 weeks ago when Rogers released the Infuse.
but honestly - there are existing dumps of both Froyo variants (look at the Ultimate Unbrick) threads and of the Rogers Gingerbread release

[SHOCKED] Even i9001 has already build their cyanogenmod! Where is the i9003 one?

Any one has witness this? Mr. Netchip from i9001 forum has already build their cyanogenmod test build today! Where is i9003 one?
(I am not blaming anyone, I would make my very effort in helping any of us who would like to make our phone better, our phone must gain the thing that other have also!)
Things we ought to do to make our phone better:
Cyanogenmod 7 (Can wait until the Final release come up)
MIUI (Somehow we are requesting, but still waiting...)
TV-out (Researching is in progress, but we have to get a more update source for doing it. Gaining other developers support is also very important. May be some developer from Motorola Milestone or LG optimus black can help.)
A complete stable enough kernel, can be overclocked to 1.2 Ghz or more and with some more features. (I believe our phone has enough top-level developer to do this. But the most important things is we must wait for a better and updated stock kernel. I think Samsung will release its forth stable GingerBread ROM in the upcoming days. Probably an Asia ROM.)
I fell confident to our phone because our phone has a potential to be better. We have to gain more support from some other place. I suggest we can co-operate with developers from LG optimus black, they have their oc kernel too. But stable. We have many similarities, both have a chipset TI OMAP 3630, same display resolution, both have open source kernel, also waiting for porting cyanogenmod, miui etc.
Well, talked so much about LG optimus black. At last I hope everyone in i9003 can help together to fight for a better future for our phone...
---------- Post added at 06:56 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:55 PM ----------
Also, one more thing we should fight for:
Tell everybody in the world, i9003 is different from i9000! We should have a different forum!!!

the i9001 build doesnt work!!
and fyi,they dont even have cwm!!!
Right! i9001 has CM7? I think we need to take a giant leap and port cm7! Let's see what happens! Ther reason why our phon eis not populare is because many people are going for a S or S2 with a cost of only some extra bucks! Our phone is only populare in Asia-Pacific region! We also need experienced Developers! Each and every i9003 XDA user is learning developement! (Which is a very very very good thing!) And , hence, we can soon make our phone better!
Cm7 for i9003!
All developers unite! !!!
A call to arms! !
Sent from my gt-I9003 with A.I. Type
+1
we would build an developers group with i9003 1st, to start...
and i hope others who have much income can do have a donation for this group so that they can buy a beer..
I have an idea. I will be downloading cm7 for i9000. I can see the structure of the file and I can try porting it! I would suggest everybody to download a CWM flashable zip and try this thing out. Also, I will not be availabel until 26th due to some personal reasons. The first thing I begin to do in the morning of September 26th will be to work on the structure and the port. I think, I can run CM7 on a stock CWM kernal! Let's wait and watch! Just wait......And Watch! ;-;
That sounds great!
@ rohan
rohan i really appreciate ur efforts. But galaxy s has complete different file structure & modified kernal than galaxy sl.
I said again & again & still saying that plz dont discuss by creating threads only. Instead of this plz contact cynogen mod developers & convince them to work for us. I really observed one thing that many people on our forum just want thing without any effort. By just writing here that we want CM7 not a single developer will look into ur thread even. If we approach other super developer and literally beg them to help us then @ least they will start to think upon our request. It may be successful or not but at least outer world will come to know the potential & spirit we all people have for our phone.

The dev who's working on the cm7 thing for the i9001 , 'netchip', does NOT own the phone and He's currently got a kernel for sgs2 (which he uses) too..
So i think we should ask him to help us with porting the cyanogen mod to our phone.. What say ??

Galaxy Ace got cm7
i9003 deserves cm7
even my old samsung galaxy i5700 got cm7 :/
I tried attempting in doing what I can to get CM7 looked into, problem lies in, Even if we get 90% into completing it, Without a hacked/broken down kernel, there's no way we can enjoy the benefits.
I have seen 2 GT-I9003 installed in http://stats.cyanogenmod.com/.

[Q] Samsung 46 Bricked (no power nothing)

ok i bricked my phone.
how can i undo it. nothing happens. tried following links nothing.
help thank you.
Possibly the worst first post ever. We should have a "best of" list somewhere on this site. Kinda like Craigslist does.
@OP With the amount of info you provided I can tell you nothing.
LOL...
Hi TX
how did you brick your phone?
Did you odin it a Vibrant ROM instead of SGS 4G?
We really need more info.
See if you can get into download mode (yellow triangle) by pressing both volume keys as you plug phone to computer (you will need to install Samsung drivers first)
sent from me
Is your phone really a GALAXY S 4G or do you have an EPIC 4G like the other guy or an GALAXY S, or any of the other models that people think are this phone and then flash the wrong stuff to it.
together orienh
Its a Samsung Galaxy 4g by tmobile. i flashed the vibrant stuff on there which when i download the tom it did not say it was for vibrant,.
I used Odin to do it with.
i been trying to get it into down load mode since i done bricked it. looks like i might end up buying one of those usb jig to force it.
I ave flashed phone in the past but mostly blackberry's to different carriers.
so as a noob i F**cked up on my personal phone which i have a back up which is not a big deal. all i wanted to do was upgrade from fryo to ice-cream or something better.
Sucks that as of now not given the opertunity to up date software.
thanks

"What time is it?"
I typically run something close to Team Acid's CM9. Recently it has been with Hefe Kernel of Darkness, the auto-brightness mods, and I build with TWRP (since I have come to prefer it over Clockwork recovery). I like AOKP for some of its features as well, and find the two perform similarly for me.
Right now I'm running CM9 mainly because of the work on the Aries kernel I'm doing. Team Acid needs to get it running on one ROM solidly before seeing if there are ROM-related things that also need to be resolved.

WOW REALLY? That "unhelpful" link is Samsungs stock firmware repository. Click link, Register, click firmware, search device number, DL firmware for ODIN. How does it feel having your hand held like a little kid?
you know, it snot-nosed stuck-up kids like you that make us not want to help people. first, you post this thread with absolutely no helpful information on what you did to your phone. second, it's obvious you didn't search before you posted, otherwise you wouldn't have posted this thread. third, when people were being helpful and i mean very helpful (most would just point and laugh or flame at you for posting this thread), you don't even thank them. and finally after someone basically held your hand and gave you probably the most helpful link in regards to which rom to flash with odin, you go and disrespect him. but i can also see that maybe there is a little sense in your head cause you actually did use the search feature of this forum and found something helpful also. but that's only "one thing positive for you. hopefully you will learn something from this though. and now i'm going to quote something from someone you may know...

Good evening everyone,
Ok i wanted to clear something up for one.
I did research out my wazoo before posting this.
i posted plain and simple what my phone was doing.
Did not think you had say hey i have a zebra phone. My phone got bricked. yes my fault. i did more research found nothing that's why i posted the basic info thinking someone would say try this.
Ok for the ones who tried to help me thanks but i have gotten one rude person who replied originally. after i posted.
to the guy who posted the link for sammobile now all you did was posted a link thanks but on your side you could have told me register first to get what i need. but you did not so when i went to that link it looked like a place for viriusis, my Virus scanner went off so i posted what i posted, after i seen your post after i post i did what you said and ok some reason all was good. now before anyone replied back, i still did me research and found someone with something helpful not using Odin the link i posted and i said thanks to that person on there thread. I have never flashed an android phone before. i have done blackberries from carrier to carrier sprint to cricket.
For those who were helpful and not rude to me Thank you.
And report me go ahead fine. i am just now getting home from work to reply back to this and say thanks for who have helped.
Have a great day.
That is all.
I don't see anything in this thread worthy of reporting.....what's so horrible here?
What I see is some reading to deeply into things....but nothing said or done againsts any xda rules....other than some non vulgar name calling which was actually done by someone who is doing the reporting.
Sorry but this is sad.
Way to treat a new Guy!.....
@OP
The guy who posted the link for Sammobile is the same guy who "rudely" replied to you. That guy is me. If you think that reply was rude so be it. You provided ZERO useful info. Still haven't. I'm glad you got your phone back up and running. Please stay on stock until you decide to take the time and learn a few things.
OK first off, you need a new virus scanner. That website literally how we got gingerbread on this phone until it was official October last year.
Or you have a bad site open in another tab.
You should have at least looked around the website.
2. One of the first stickies in the general section is the DON'T FLASH ANY VIBRANT ROM thread. It is NOT the same phone.
3. This phone is called the SGH- T959V for future reference.
4. Next time you post, don't blame the guy that helps you.
@hechoen. Just for reference. The website only has leaked firmware up to KI1. You have to go to sampro.pl for KJ6. (It is in polish, and you need an account.(use google chrome for a translator))

It's being worked on. The Galaxy S3 (d2) and the Victory (goghspr) are similar, but not exactly the same. The display is different, and there are not any other devices I can find with the same display as the goghspr. WIFI is not the same, BT is not the same, etc. There is already a booting CM-10 for the goghspr, but I stopped work on it to move to CM-10.1. The link you provided is to the post of a guy I'm also working with, g60madman. Give us time. I'm working on the kernel when I can (I'm disabled and have a new painful injury to deal with). The apexqtmo guys have been very helpful and are allowing me to dig through their work to get some stuff for the goghspr/goghvmu kernel. I already have cm-10.1 building, but it won't boot until I get the drivers ported. Create thread with the device name and show the generation of interest as often as possible. I've already requested a dedicated forum, but there needs to be a real NEED for it before we can get it. Cheers and out!

Thanks for the support. There is not a forum on XDA for this device. There are two on androidforums. I have ported cwm and twrp and have released a faster kernel and some other junk too. I think others have some stuff there too. Hit my github link and you'll see some repos and forks for other guys basing off my work. g60madman just patched our kernel up and he's setting up for cm-10.1 for the goghvmo. Again, take a look.

Maybe this will help:
http://www.oudhitsquad.com/android/Samsung/SPH-L300/Mod/recovery/TWRP-2.5.tar
Remember, uncheck auto-reboot. Once flash is finished, pull USB cable and battery. Replace battery and boot directly into recovery using VOLUP+POWER until blue letters are seen in upper left corner. Release buttons. That should get you going. Use goomanager to update to TWRP 2.6
