billamib 3 Report post Posted July 27, 2012 @billamib the Kexec method is not easy as you think it is, unless you are a dev. the easiest way i solved my problem is i rebooted to download mode and i flashed relevant modem.bin ( this not only replaces your stock modem.bin but also resets PRL NVram and NAM settings. after doing this i was able to get my EPIC back to normal. http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1079097 --> Kexec method to by pass bootloader. i have used it a couple of times..to update prl..i still have it in my sdcard to use if need arises..and it is really simple,,only that the os,since hosted on the sdcard,is slow...and btw i am not a dev.. just follow instructions in this link http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1464791 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Install a custom recovery CWM or TWRP using odin..download jelly bean rom from here http://forum.xda-dev...d.php?t=1741978 and flash from recovery..But i would suggest try ICS for now..jb still has some bugs.wait till everything gets fixed... fyi why are you still using eh06 modem???it is "antique"..go for fc09 or the newest fc19..

skarim123 2 Report post Posted August 9, 2012 I am using epic touch, while I am on call suddenly signal bars goes completely zero and show up no signal icon.In next few seconds signal is there, in between I had to disconnect the call. I have recently did a factory reset, and flashed evdo nv items as it wasnt working. Have I missed anything else. Is that creating the signal issue ?

billamib 3 Report post Posted August 16, 2012 i got somewhere that all the SAMOLED Galaxy S phones have the same display.but in ebay all listings include the Epic digitizer(front panel) too. so maybe it is very tricky to remove the lcd from the digitizer.do it in a official service centre paying some money. btw how much is the cost of the i500 display at rcom??

csmart 472 Report post Posted August 16, 2012 I assume that i500 will easier to get compare to Epic. I think it should be cheaper. I will be visiting authorised service centre and update the same. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
