Dead radio feature in EF02 - Epic 4G General

Okay I haven't seen this one mentioned yet.
While loading the Market I switched WiFi on (3g is dialup slow here and I had forgotten to turn it on before launching the Market), screen instantly goes black. 3 seconds later I get the off and charging screen, it hard crashed.
Start the phone back up... no service... in status everything is changed to "unknown"... phone number, PRL, MSID, MEID, everything says Unknown.
Reboot, no change.
Boot to CWM and do full data/cache/dalvik wipe, no change
Boot back into phone and try cycling through data and airplane modes... problem. Airplane mode won't turn off... at all. If you use the power button to get to the switch, the airplane mode button just doesn't do anything.
If you use the settings menu to wireless menu, "Airplane Mode" is checked off. If you uncheck it, it says "Enabling wireless connections" and greys out, then remains like that until you leave the screen. When you return it is checked again.
Awesome.

Nother new thread that coulve been avoided...

Another thread instantly **** in. The bug thread is a ****ing mess, this is a warning.

Confirmed that this happened to me too,same exact symptoms.

Its not a "****ing" mess since everyone is posting their bugs there and if it does make you happy, go ahead and hit that report button. Im pretty sure youre wee wee wont grow...

I did thanks.
Again, this isn't as much a bug, it is a warning that there is an unrecoverable problem... and it is a mess, but then again they all are. Sorry I broke your new thread for the forum limit for the day, some **** is more important than people that don't like slow buttons.
Again thanks for thread crapping, good show!

Not a problem kiddo, did it grow some? I bet you got pubes and all! Using profanity and all, I bet you it makes you feel like a big boy!
Whos a big boy? Whos a big boy? You are! Yes you are!

What are you 14?

So now we do the age thing... does it matter?

Just go away, you aren't helping anyone.

Neither are you, I found out, were actually doing the opposite of helping, me trolling your thread that shoulve been typed in an already existing thread and you giving more work for mods by posting the before mentioned thread.

what was your baseband?

Well high five then. Now go away. I'm sure there are MANY other completely useless posts for you to complain about.

I am running EC05 on it now to see if the problem reoccurs.

Nah, this ones pretty cool, Ill just piggyback it then.
*High fives* Awesome to the MAX!

I've had someting similar happen on EE03, 4 or 5 times. Once I couldn't get the radio back at all and had to odin a new one. Haven't updated to the nw stuff yet, but it doesn't look promising.

You're right, he shouldn't have done that, but you should be the bigger person and let him no you are offended in an appropriate way rather than making the situation worse. Reporting him to the moderators would have been a better response.
I apologize for trying to be the forum police.

Have any app can screen off?

I want to replace power button (standby / screen off) .
It can't or don't have any app , isn't it???
I'm sorry, but could you clarify what you're asking?
He wants an application that can be used to turn the screen off/put the phone to sleep. To "replace" the power button.

Carlos Graves from phonedog was showing off cyanogen a month or so ago and he had some sorta program that could power down your phone and such. I might be wrong though. If your phone is rooted, I could look it up for you.

Sure, i'd be glad to help. It will take me a little bit to find it though. I might be mistaken though but i'll report back whatever I can find.
Thanks, man.
I hope you find what you thought you saw, but I really doubt it was such an app, though. We have this other thread going on ( http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=653209 ), and nobody seems to have heard of such a function currently available.
Shame though, as it turns out that alot of people is having major problems with their power buttons.
Well I found what I was looking for but it wasn't what I thought it was. I'm extremely sorry.
The program I thought turned off the phone is called "quick boot" but that just helps your phone boot into recovery and such. It can also reboot your phone which is a plus. It can be seen here

at 40 seconds into the video. Sorry about that.
No problem, that's what I thought. (See my last post.)

ok this is an easy fix but 2 things to this..
#1 that video is only for FLOOR MODELS.. so you either got a stolen phone or a floor model
#2 goto applications.. find mytouch demo, force stop.
it will start up again after you reboot/turn phone off you'll have to do it all over again..
i suggest you root it and flash to eugene's mrslide final or myroot 4
I had this same problem..
good way to detect if it was stolen, when you press on either side of the battery door where you hold it in your palm it squeeks they ripped it outta the display
Paid 180 + my fked up BlackBerry 8520f or it..
sooo yeah i knew it was stolen when i took it to a ROOTER and he said its not a STOCK applications for fresh outta box

Really? Battery case squeaking means its stolen? My phone is less than 2 months old and has done this from day one, got it brand new in the box. Ignorance in your post as a "att tech" please continue to post only on what you know to be true. But yes he could have gotten a floor model, or one that was destin for it but they grabbed the wrong box.

I'm not reffering to the normal Squeak I'm refering to a LOUD ass squeek as if someone pulled it off almost the to point that the battery case seems to not the fit phone at all..
Please keep your flaming rude posts to a minimum and consider the fact that what one person may be posting isn't always what you are thinking.. they are talking about
Video = floor model
The demo video is only for floor demo models, so it could be stolen but the first batch of store demo's shipped to stores were not labeled demo like normal. Because of this, it is possible for a demo to have been legitimately sold if the rep did not boot up the phone.

nexus and walmart

ive found something very odd. im not really looking for an answer,just sharing.unless you know whats going on.for the past few weeks my wife has told me that when she goes to walmart on sunday morning,her time jumps ahead on her nexus.this is an unrooted device running 2.2.1.naturally i was skeptic.until this morning.i went with her.when we started our grocery shopping she asked to see my nexus.then she asked to see my watch.then she showed me her nexus and it was ahead by one hour.when we got the groceries loaded in car i checked it again and all was back to normal.i then checked all settings and nothing is abnormal.i havent a clue on this.
Bermuda triangle!?
The N1 has determined that it takes approximately one hour to shop at Wal Mart, therefore it is trying within its limit of influence to make you exit the horrid place.

It is the Wall Mart 'Always rolling back' effort. In the real world, your wife did not go shopping, she did not spend one hour there. These are not the droids you are looking for.
since i know where you are located... you are located near a diff time zone. your wifes nexus probably picks up the other timezone, in walmart, and switches accordingly. thats my 2 cents.
Wal-Mart is so big it has dual time zone?
crap man! You are supposed to use a space after a period.

Ok, now that we have something readable... it sounds like you are connecting to a tower that has it's clock wrong. I believe each tower has it's own clock that updates your device. That way each device isn't going out over the main network to get time and other things.

I believe that there is a WIFI box or Cell tower that was moved from a different timezone. Nothing you can do about it.

[Q] Samsung epic 4g completely locked out

Ok it might be on here already but.... i dont know how many times or different ways i can vary my words in hopes of a different response.
I have the 'epic' of course galaxyS 4g from sprint. Im completely locked out. I left i at a buddy's house and they got drunk and were playing with it. Worst of all i forgot my password so i'm in a bit of a bind here. I've tried each and every way to get to the bootloader i can think of and it's too the point i just want to break it in a trillion pieces but! i dont want to loose the money i spent on this aledged investment. Help please!!!!
Hopefully u have a recent nandroid or beat it out of your buddy

Just take it into a Sprint store. They will help you. Why haven't you called them yet? Of course they're going to verify that you own it, so if that's an issue, GOOD LUCK.....of course you should turn it in to sprint so they can return it to its owner.
Seems a little odd that a Sprint customer having such an issue with their phone wouldn't have tried them first. You have 2 posts, so one could deduce that you don't follow the forum.

Of course, we do thank you for understanding who the leader of smartphone forums are. And since you stated that you've asked the question several times previously, and only have 2 posts, I assume this isn't your first forum you've visited with such an issue.
I had someone once who couldn't 'remember' "their" laptops boot password, and based on the fact they had to ask, I didn't think for one second about not mentioning that wiping the bios would do it. The story then changed to 'oh I just bought it from a pawn shop', but having dealt with pawn shops before, one would already know that they're not going to take in a machine with even the OS password'd, let alone the BOOT!

Ha, NOT locking your phone makes you end up like this guy! If you have a lock, no matter how talented of a drunk one may be, they're not getting past your 'lock'.
Now an unlocked phone can have one put onto it, as stated by the OP
You might as well just reset the wipe the phone. That is exactly what Sprint will tell you to do. Or try to request your gmail password.

I would jump in, but I had to cut my home internet for financial reasons. I have the CDMA version so the current ROMs weren't of use to me yet. I feel kinda useless right now, lol. I might be able to go to an unlimited plan (another $15 a month) instead of my current 10GB. Just setting up my new phone (and wife's) used most of my data. I'll figure something out. Thanks for laying so much groundwork bro.

I hear you. I had to do the same thing being laid off for a while, waiting for a call from my union hall to go back to work. Also why I haven't acquired another E4 for testing, and can't have my phone down so I don't miss a call. If it wasn't for my unlimited plan with boost, I wouldn't be doing much right now. I can build a ROM way faster than I can upload it. Sometimes I go to a near by coffee shop and have a cup or 2 and make use of the free WiFi.
