[Q] Samsung epic Bricked after Rom Flash

Hi Guys i kinda new to Phones but not a complete noob,
Now i know what many of you are thinking "this has already been resolved" true but i think my case is a little different. I had flashed the Frozen syndicate ROM like 3 weeks ago a new version came out i made a stupid mistake and BAM i was bricked no problem i went to Odin and Flashed back to stock. But now every time i try to flash any rom at all it gets bricked and it will just stay at the Samsung Screen and wont do nothing after and everytime i have to flash back to stock . Can you guys help?

WELL TRY THIS from stock rom..
1. GOTO RECOVERY
2. wipe data,cache, dalvik cache, sd ext
3. partition sd card
4. repair sd ext
5. download the uploaded file and flash
6, it will format total system
7. turn on usb ms toggle and copy rom file to sd card
8. turn of usb..
6. flash rom..
7, it will work
(MAKE SURE U USE A ROM MEANT FOR UR DEVICE)

YES!! i went step by step and when i flashed the file you gave me it stayed at the samsung screen .. it seems it does that if i flash anything at all form CWM

Your problem is most likely an outdated version of CWM. Update to version 3.0.1.0 via ROM Manager.

NOW THIS IS BAD..!
BY THE WAY I FOUND MANY PEOPLE HAVING PROBLEMS with CWM..
use modified recovery.img from drellisdee..
link:-> http://www.mediafire.com/file/uf752h...-1.1.0.img.zip
now this problem is complicated!
CAN U GO BACK TO STOCK?
THEN I WILL TELL U HOW TO INSTALL THE ABOVE AND U CAN GIVE IT A SHOT!

I am at stock i flash stock through Odin and it gets unbricked then i re root a recover my Rom

listen dont worry..
if u have adb shell installed in ur pc then fine..
else this will be an additional burden 4 u..
now b patient and read this 1st..
http://lgoptimusonep500.blogspot.com/2011/01/installing-custom-recovery-on-lg.html
install this recovery... then repeat the steps i told u..
(ALL THE ABOVE SHOULD B DONE AFTER REVERTING BACK TO STOCK ROM)

I dont have abd shell Where can i download it

I DID IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! aaaaaannndd it still doesn't work man this is crap

I Figured something out its when ever i try to flash something with EXT4 is when it bricks?? it that helpful in any way

well the info u gave me may b helpful because some custom roms do not support EXT4..
so i would advice to double check if rom supports ext4 or not?
LEFT WITH ONLY 3 THINGS NOW
1. post in the developers section and ask him
2. try using another rom
3. dont do ext 4.. jus partition sd, sd ext repair, ext2 to ext 3 (say 4 example the rom i am using right now doesnot support ext4!!)
do this and lemme know..

have you flashed the stock rom? i think you have to flash it first and then if you want to use custom rom flash CWM again then flash the custom..

NO problem. It happens to me a lot of times. All you gotta do is flash a four package file like XXKPI (2.3.4). And then flash any custom rom of your choice. Simple as that. Cheers :laugh:

Just be carefully in the future, dont overclock ur fit at 844mhz. i think ~800 its fine.

E : cant mount system

install cwm using odin and do not overclock ur phone to more than 801 Mhz or else it will crash randomly

you have to format your sd card bro, format all (also sd ext if you have and merge partition)..but you have to back up before bro..
just format with your phone.
if it doesn't work, try to change your sd card..
based on my experience...
hahaha

Hi mate, did you solve it?
Don't worry, as long as you have recovery mode and download mode you have good chances for happy-end
Maybe you're too far from stock now with all your kernels etc, so something is not compatible.
Best you can do IMO is to flash via Odin3_v1.87 any stock ROM for your region (there are many tutorials for using Odin if you never did it) if after unzipping only one single big file appears, choose it under PDA (don't check re-partition), set you Tab into download mode and flash it. If several files are there, each belongs under its section. (in that case if you are not sure how, just quote my post and ask again, I will answer you)
After that you can root the stock ROM, install CWM recovery and flash whatever you wish

Mate, I'm bit short ov experience with the Tab as it didn't make me yet so many problems like my phone did. If you can't revive it, just send it to Samsung service.
It isn't at all especially increddible idea but it won't cost too much and should definitely help.....

Flash the rom in TWRP then before exiting TWRP flash Messi's permissive kernel. It takes about 10 minutes to boot and some features won't work (wifi, hot-spot, camera and VOLTE). Hope this helps.

I've gotten version 2 and 3 to boot on my J7, but the same issues showed in both releases. And yes you have to flash the kernel. Slight differences in the J700F/M/H and our T variant. This is why the Enigma Rom and CM13 (or any other kernel specific build) will never flash and boot without some internal tweaking.

Try this. Take your external SD card and put it in your tablet. Go to Messi's thread for the max kernel in J7T development and download the boot.img not the boot.tar.md5. Finish the download then extract the zip in your external SD card. Put your SD card in your phone, boot into TWRP. Now mount system, cache, art/dalvik, data and internal storage (you may need to format data to access data) now wipe them. Don't wipe your external SD card, so make sure it's not mounted in TWRP. After the wipe mount your external SD, flash the rom, then flash boot.img and tick Boot not recovery before the flash. Reboot and wait. Let me know if it helped man.

If you download the boot.img you won't need Odin. But I prefer flashing tars personally, your choice. It should boot for you bro.

Hey thanks bro I finally got it I figured out what I was doing wrong I never flashed the boot img and is the wifi not working on V2

Yeah thanks for everu8amd what else roms have you tried and will I have to always flash that kernel when I try to install a roms on this phone or was that only for the note roms

Wi-Fi fix , you just need to get the files from the stock ROM in system,etc. And delete all the files in note 7 folder and put the ones you copy from the stock ROM in that same folder you just delete the Wi-Fi files out of
And Reboot I reboot to recovery and advance wipe click dalvic and cliche

[ROM] MoKee [71.2] OFFICIAL HIMAUL[5-01-17]

Hello Guys i recently i found an official supported rom for hima ul on mokee webiste would like to share it here.The rom is based on android 7.1.2 It is fully stable and can be used as a daily driver
UPDATE: 2017-5-1
Rom has been updated to nougat
Download
IF YOU HAVE STATUS 6 OR 7 ERROR IN TWRP NOTE: open the downloaded rom zip and open the following file located in
x.zip/META-INF/com/google/android/update-script
and remove the following line to avoid errors in TWRP
"Assert(hima.verify_sbl1("1.2.50.1.36") == "1");"
happy flashing :good:

I tried this rom and loved it. But after some weeks my phone only show black screen and does not reboot. Don't know if mokee causes the failure. Or if it was a hardware issue. I think the second.
I got a brandnew m9 phone and use another nougat rom.
And yes. Mokee 60.1 is Android 6 and cam works.

MoKee is one great rom,i was using it and it is sooo stable and u can always count on updates regulary,when i get born of sense,i use this rom.

Nice that here on XDA is a mokee thread in m9 section. The rom deserves its own thread.

please share some screenshots of the rom so i can update the thread @dsg2003 @Boskoel03

So it's marshmallow?

Same here. I used it some time ago. So I cannot show screenshots.
Give it a try. Make a nandroid backup before, so you can switch back easily, if you don't like mokee.
Advice for you: I had to make changes in updater script before flashing. Without that, twrp gets error by me. Look in Slim7 Rom thread. There is described how to change updater script. You have to delete some words in it.

You have to try. Perhaps you must not change anything.
Some users have to make changes.
The updater-script is located in /META-INF/com/google/android/updater-script. Look at Slim7 Thread here on xda. There are posting to that.

I did not had to add or remove anything to flash this rom,think it is not for all phone models like that,do some research about it before u post to op...

can anybody share the screenshots of this rom ??

Alright so I tried flashing this ROM without modifying the zip and got the ERROR 7 message. I removed the line mentioned in the first post and still cannot get the ROM to install, same error. Any ideas? My model is himauhl
