[Q] how to install epic drivers with a custom rom - Epic 4G General

i installed the samsung epic usb drivers on my old computer, rooted my phone, flashed a custom rom and then i got rid of my old computer.
i tryed to install the epic usb drivers to my new computer and all seemed well but my phone isn't recognized in odin.
is there a way to flash back to stock that anyone knows about?

Have you tried using different USB cords? The stock cord sucks. I use my wife's evo cord and it works awesome. Odin is really the only way to flash back to completely stock and to get that custom rom off of your phone. Good luck

[Q] Samsung Fascinate USB issues

Hey guys, I just made the move from Blackberry to the Fascinate from Verizon, it is stock with the DI01. I am familiar with rooting using ADB etc and I have been doing it for a few friends. My issue is when I plug the Fascinate via usb I get a CD-Drive icon with a few software like Samsung_Mobile_USB_Driver and TooLauncher_Bootstrap and when I mount SD I get the same CD-Drive icon with error message windows can't access this disc. Also ADB shell also reports Device not found with USB Debugging and Allow mock locations enable.
The SD settings is set to Mass storage and I have the Samsung driver installed.
Can anybody point me how to get the SD mounted as a storage disk so I can have access to it?
Thanks allot guys
Can you post what OS you are using for clarification?
The issue I had with this was I didn't realize I had to authorize the mount from the pulldown up top when I plugged it in. You probably did that, but just in case.
Swyped w/ XDA App. When in doubt, mumble.
Im on Win 7 x64 with Samsung USB x64 driver install.
The funny thing I had another Fascinate in just last week and I was able to connect and mount the SD card as a disk drive just fine.
Any tought?
Try restarting your phone with the USB cable plugged into your computer and usb debugging turned on.
Here are some posts by people with the same issue:

Well I finally got the computer to recognize the sdcard, but I had to flash the d101 odin files a bunch of times and start over. But after awhile on DJ05 the same problem happens again. I tried to check to make sure the sd was recognized after each step I took, but it seemed it seemed to have stop working overnight and now is just not recognized at all or as my cd-rom (drivers show 'samsung cd-rom usb device', though the sdcard is still working on the phone

I got mine to work again. Although I'm not exactly sure why it worked. But I un-installed and re-installed the samsung usb drivers and then later when I restarted my phone with the usb plugged in (and usb debug on) the computer started loading up the drivers correctly while the phone booted and it has worked since then.

Basically you have to restarted the phone with the usb plugged in.
After than that the problems was gone.

I am not totaly sure that the connection issue is related to DJ05, or full DIO1 package. After running into the problems with the debug connection, I was not able to root because of the connection issue.
Luckily, I saved off a rom manager backup od my DJ05 after rooting it the first go around, as it seems as though something of DJ05 stays around, and breaks all my DI01 roms.
What I ended up doing, to get back up and running is as follows;
I formatted the SD card just in case that had a problem. Put my rom manager backups back on their, and then I flashed back the DI01 package to get me back to the factory radio. Then I flashed clockwork, I then copied update.zip from the clockwork thread to the root of the sd card, and booted into recovery. Next I restored my DJ05 backup that already had root, and then back into recovery and flashed the DJ05 radio, and Kernel.
I am now back up and running. Not sure on the debug connection, I will have to some things.
Thanks,
Chris

Don't know if anybody ever told you this!
You're the man, it works, I have access the SD card via USB.
Thanks ALLOT bro.
none of the above methods work for me. All trouble began when i installed DJ05. I used the **87284 through dialer to confirm its on USB mode. Now i don't have debugging and sdcard mount failure.
Under windows 7 x64 device manager other devices got loads of question marks on Data Interface.
I was looking at other post for EVO4G

The fastboot option is only available on HTC models i guess.
I was wondering about a fix for fascinate through Odin.
I would just suggest trying the different odin files for dj01 modem, system, recovery until you get a combination that gets the usb working again. The first time I used odin it worked great, then the second time it didn't work and I just kept doing it until it did. Then once I went to dj05 and flashed anything using clockwork the USB would go back to not being recognized but a restart w/ the phone plugged in fixes it.
Downloaded latest files & instructions from irc samsung-fascinate channel. it used to mount as CDROM earlier. That is gone now. Still shows question marks under Data Interface win7 x64. Tried various combinations. Went back to stock now.
However the baseband modem is DI01 and build number is DH12. Similar issue reported by http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=854704.
In search of DH12 baseband modem now. Hoping this will fix the issue i'm having. I've got a nandroid backup but that does not restore the baseband modem to DH12.

Vibrant not charging

So here's my problem, my vibrant stopped charging the other day. I need to flash back to stock 2.1 in order to get a replacement. Since my usb port isn't working I need a cwm version of stock 2.1, I searched and to no avail. Does anyone have any suggestions?
I think you can find a nandroid backup in the development forum....restore that in. recovery...then while you are still in recovery...flash the stock kernel as well because nandroid doesn't restore the kernel...after done just do a factory reset and your good to go. You can find the files by doing a simple search for jfd nandroid in the development forum...
You could flash stock ka6 2.2 froyo...but you can't trust tmobile workers to know that official 2.2 is released via kies. They might day that the phone was hacked and the warranty is now void
Please remember to hit thanks if I helped.

Is it the USB port, or is it the cable? My Samsung provided cable was bad. I thought it was the phone. When I switched to a higher quality Blackberry cable, everything charged great again.

I got the cable problem too. Luckily I had bought two backup cables, unfortunately shorter, but that made the difference.

I've totally messed up, Please help!

I have a problem now, I Tried to install MIUI ROM 1.5.20 from the oficial page using AIO Vibrant Toolbox 2.5, following step by step, but when it finished the phone started to restart constantly, I tried to restore with the backup I've made, but now It freezes at start with the logo SAMSUNG and VIBRANT.
I can´t enter to the recovery menu, what can I do? please help me =(
You can't restore your old 2.2 backup when you're on a cm7 kernel. You'll have to Odin to stock, flash your previous rom then flash your backup.
But how can I do that, with odin? how I use that? The only screen I see in the phone is VIBRANT Samsung, pressing the three buttons isn't working... =(
You need to get to download mode, not recovery one. To get to that just take off your battery then put it back in while holding the volume buttons and plugging the USB cable from your pc to your vibrant.
More on that and how to use Odin here

remove battery
connect USB cable to computer and your phone still without the battery
press both volume keys and keep them pressed
insert battery
phone is in download mode
use odin to go back to stock
that isn't working too, It looks like it freezes just after starting, the only difference is when it is turned off, and I plug the usb cable, it shows the little circle but freezed too..
=(
I´m in the downloading mode noW!!! i will try to fix it...
update******
I'm downloading the drivers, can you recommend me a rom to install? or both a custom rom and a stock one plz?
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=991267
The link above is for the Vibrant Bible. Get stock rom before flashing a custom rom.
I always go back to stock 2.1 then install custom rom.
I'll try that, any suggestion stable for a rom with froyo and above plz?

Bionix is always a good choice, and so is trigger. But just to be clear, you *MUST* Odin back to jfd and only jfd to get everything working properly. Then go about installing the specific rom you choose.

[Q] Help with flashing back to stock/unrooting.

Hello, I am in need of help. could someone please give me the original stock rom for the Nexus 7 (2012) I have recently used cm installer to install cyanogenmod. However, it has recently caused some issues with charging/syncing. I can only charge the device when off, and it won't show as connected on the computer. Also, how do I flash stock from device, since I can't connect to a computer? I would like to automatically unroot after flashing original stock rom, if possible. Kinda like a factory reset.

If you cannot use a computer, you cannot revert to total stock. However, you can try TeamAndroid's ROMs found on GooManager which are exact replicas of stock. Good luck.

Can't you download a flashable ROM from XDA and flash that zip?

Deleted os , computer cant see phone, last ditch effort.

So I moved onto a new phone once I screwed up my phone a couple months ago, but if I can save it in a way that would be cool. Basically right now it has no os and no backup, but I can still go to twrp. I had issues with the usb being recognized to my computer even when the phone worked, I don't believe I can get my computer to see my phone, even though it charges though it. Doesn't help that the usb port is loose. So I just wanna see if there is any way I can get my computer to see my phone to get it running again.
hav u tried changing the usb port on the phone and or use different cable or pc!!!

Like try to take the phone apart and replace it? No, I did try various cord on two pcs, no dice.
You will have to ADB Fastboot and then flash a ROM
what about a USB otg drive? load up OS files and flash from TWRP
I suppose that is the last thing to try, I'll order one today.
If you can get your 6P to recognize a USB-OTG device after mounting OTG in TWRP then you can save a ROM and GAPPS to your OTG device and flash it from TWRP.

Update
So I got my otg-usb was able to see the storage device in recovery. However I was having trouble flashing a rom, well more specifically I couldn't flash a vendor img. But eventually I installed the latest twrp, and was able to install a vendor img and rom, and I was able to get it running I'm so happy!! Thank you for the otg suggestion,I thought this phone was a paper weight.
