Hey sfhub, it sounds like there are some partitioning errors from what I'm reading. I'm wondering if this can maybe help: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=754805

It's a flashable in cwm, but it could possibly be reworked or something. I'm not sure if it is compatible with our phones though, I'm just trying to think outside the box on this one.

The data partition issue is just a theory, but if it was happening, it is happening before these users are getting to ODIN. Something before ODIN is causing the problem and ODIN is just the victim.

I think the thread you referred to is trying to repartition to increase the sizes available. We have a way to repartition the phone to the original specs using the re-partition option in ODIN, so in theory that should resolve the problem, but we will see soon with some feedback that I'm sure will be coming.

SFHUB,

still hanging at data.img
Can you boot into recovery and wipe data/factory reset?

By the time data.img is flashing, the kernel and ROM have already finished flashing.

The reason your phone isn't booting at that point is likely because /data doesn't exist. Wipe data/factory reset should format and create /data, that is unless it is also being prevented from working on /data because of the as of yet unindentified /data issue.

only the rogue recovery 1.1.4 located here http://rootzwiki.com/topic/10706-rogue-stock-el29-v114-new-1512/ would let me wipe data/factory reset

do you want me to ODIN that recovery and try the wipe data/factory reset?
or would you like me to use whatever recovery is on here now and try it?

You should have stock recovery at this point. I'm pretty sure it has a wipe data/factory reset option though I don't remember what they call it.

So just try it with the recovery you currently have.

    A little for you guys to drool over, it's definitely more stable & finished off than FB09 is but before everyone bombards me with PM & request, I'm leaving to go to a b-day party and won't be back till late, so don't expect this until tomorrow

    This thread is meant to be used to help with the progress of the FB17 and FB09 leaks. Thanks to everyone who has pooled together.

    --------------------------------------------

    FB17:

    Working: 3g, 4g, Wifi, Bluetooth, MMS, SMS, Face Unlock

    Sketchy: GPS (not working for all), No root, No recovery

    MANY PEOPLE are having issues with .zip file, so it is recommended to use the .TAR files for FB17. Flash at your own risk, as always!

    All needed files are here: http://forums.acsyndicate.net/showthread.php?4961-Samsung-Epic-4g-Touch-FB17

    --------------------------------------------

    FB09 (OLD):

    Working: 3g + 4g, Wifi, Bluetooth, Face Unlock

    Not Working:
    MMS (Workaround, use GoSMS from the Market).

    CWM Recovery (Workaround, use ROM Manager to install CWM on a GSII (not E4GT) and you'll have a permanent recovery to make backups, flash other ROMs, etc...).

    Loss of Service (Wordaround, keep your 4g on - even if you don't get 4g coverage - this seems to stop LOS from occuring).

    GPS (No known work around yet)

    ---------

    Some tips:

    Keyboard Issues? Go to settings > input & keyboard > default keyboard and change it to Swype to start. That will get rid of the laghag that Samsung has delivered us. Then you can grab a keyboard from the market or sideload one. Or just stick with Swype as it's working fine.

    If you want ICS looking icons until a theme is released, download ROM TOOLBOX PRO and you can switch out icons.

    EL29 seems to be working best for most, so I'd recommend using that when coming to this ROM.

    GO SMS works for sending MMS as a work-around for the time being.

    Need to go back to stock? Try a different kernel? All located here: http://115media.net/scarmon25/Epic4GTouch/
