Best would be to try and flash custom rom with generally have the hotshot hack.

silent_god 121 Report post Posted May 27, 2013 Refer my problem above in post # 431, still no solution is in sight. In fact other problems also have cropped up, like phone restarting without any intervention. Some application which used to run smoothly earlier, now getting force closed. Batter draining ultra fast & many other issues. So, as per the post below I guess, I will have to revert back on 2.3 Or find the odin file of the version that you were on and flash that I have found a nice simplified process here Samsung Galaxy S2 Epic 4G Touch SPH-D710: Flashing stock Android 2.3.6 Gingerbread EL29 firmwareI have following questions for expert members. Request you to reply/share knowledge in order to take informed action. 1) Does this reverting back (flashing original stock rom on GB) will affect my other phone (basic) functions like voice/sms/evdo ? It shouldn't happen that once I flash it everything is gone (like happens in factory reset option in HTC Rhyme), phone looses its ability to connect with network. 2) In case of a problem (loss of network connection) with step no 1 above, is there any easy method to get network / evdo back on the phone with some simple setting on phone or some software ( I mean without sending the handset back to seller). 3) File name mentioned in above link is "SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED-oc-sfx.exe", does it mean that the stock rom with room access will be installed ? Since, there is some file on internet available for non-root access. NOTE : Complete RISK of doing this is on ME only, so DON'T worry for the reply part, as all responsibility lies with me. Taking risk without knowing anything is far more dangerous than knowing beforehand.. Hope, to get help as usual from this forum.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It shouldn't happen that once I flash it everything is gone (like happens in factory reset option in HTC Rhyme), phone looses its ability to connect with network. Depends, some times radio provisioning is resetted some times not, but it should not bother you right now. 2) In case of a problem (loss of network connection) with step no 1 above, is there any easy method to get network / evdo back on the phone with some simple setting on phone or some software ( I mean without sending the handset back to seller). HETAL has posted links for FLASHPHONE software somewhere on forum. It is capable to flashing all network parameters automatically. Incl profile unlock, PRL, AKEY, EVDO and PPP parameters. You need your own MIN number though 3) File name mentioned in above link is "SPH-D710.EL29_CL852097_ROOTED-oc-sfx.exe", does it mean that the stock rom with room access will be installed ? Since, there is some file on internet available for non-root access. Root or no root what difference does it make? ROOT will help you restoring back up easily. If you have root then you can install WIFI tether and use it. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

joshm 818 Report post Posted May 29, 2013 (edited) Download the one click rooted full restore odin version and flash that. You should be good. If that doesn't help you may have to install a custom rom to the structure right. Its most probably a kernel issue so reflashed will help you, please make sure that the md5 is correct. One can also flash just stock kernel as well to get it right, but I wouldn't recommend that, it's better to just flash the safer stock rom which generally fixes the partition as well as boot loader and modem in one go. http://www.rimweb.in/forums/index.php?/topic/34621-Update-your-Sprint-Samsung-Epic-4G-Touch-D-710-To-The-Latest-Official,-Leaked-and-Custom-ROM#entry289173 sent from my NOTE II, yupp size does matter.

Flashed stock GB (2.3.6) without any problem with #434 & some 'moral' boosters from rimweb members. Followed process given in link givein in post #434 & things have happened exactly the way it should. Phone has reverted back to it's original stock rom condition. 1) Entire process took less than 20 minutes & without any error message. 2) Data backup was taken, but no data was wiped off. Only contacts/sms/call history was wiped. It was resotred using "Super Back up" on google play. 3) I had removed external SD card in order to avoid formatting, but, this process has not done any formatting of memory it seems. 4) Voice / sms / data / evdo everything works file. Wifi Hotspot is working. NOW, I would like to know how to stop this phone from downloading latest OS upgrade OTA (whenever connected to 3g or wifi) & then keep on insisting me for install ? Got your pm just now as well. See on this version you will have to root and flash wifi hack to get it working. Best would be to try and flash custom rom with generally have the hotshot hack.

Since, whenever, phone connects to network, it will auto start downloading latest OS updated in back ground & start troubling me to install. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
joshm 818 Report post Posted June 2, 2013 (edited) There is a apk that updates, I don't remember the name, all you need is stop or freeze or uninstall that using titanium backup, but of course you need to be rooted for that no matter what. sent from my NOTE II, yupp size does matter.

silent_god 121 Report post Posted November 11, 2013 How to Stop OTA update for E4GT. When, I got this E4GT, it was on 2.3.6, later on it got OTA updates & went to ICS, with that I had horrible experience of battery drain. Then, again I changed to stock ROM to 2.3.6, again it updated to OTA (yes, it asks your permission to update & we have an option to press "Later", but there is a high chance of accidentally pressing Yes & it updates). Again same battery drain problem started. then, I upgraded to Jelly Bean through PC, but problem of battery was identical as in ICS. Hence, I changed it back to GB 2.3.6 & this time disabled OTA updates by following. process is very simple & mentioned @ length here http://goo.gl/WajFrU However, in simple words, it is copying a file FOTAKill.apk into /system/app folder. Phone has to be rooted for this. File is available here, whereas system/app folder can be accessed by ES explorer. in ES explorer, you have to ensure "Mount R/W" in root explorer. Other owner of this handset may have different experience with these OS, so can't say if this is a general problem. FOTAKill.apk 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ashishsethi 55 Report post Posted January 16, 2014 My computer runs on Windows XP. Few days back, my software guy re-formatted Win XP on my comp. Whenever I connect my Samsung Epic Touch 4G via USB to the computer now, it opens up the MTP Media Player window. Also, the phone does not show as a drive in My Computer. Before the XP formatting, I used to get the SPH-D710 drive with options to open the SD as well as External SD cards as soon as I connected the phone to the comp via USB. I think I have checked all the settings, but I'm not able to get around it. Maybe I'm missing something. Please help. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
