Re: Permanent root and one click root for the Samsung Epic 4g
 

try this, unplug the device, and plug it back in to the same usb port..then look at the drivers and see if you can find CDC and install it manually. (sometimes it automatically install after unplugging lol)

Re: Permanent root and one click root for the Samsung Epic 4g
 

unplugged it, plugged it back in. new hardware did not pop though I still don't see the samsung modem listed. ran adb get-state, this came back with device

so I ran the run.bat
which is giving this error
error: device not found

Re: Permanent root and one click root for the Samsung Epic 4g
 

Did you look at the Device manager when you plugged it in?

I guess try this:

do:
adb kill-server

unplug phone, disable usb debugging...reset phone..enable usb debugging...plug back in to same port.

Re: Permanent root and one click root for the Samsung Epic 4g
 

Think I have root access now, have done this whole thing before... for whatever reason it worked this time:

factory reset
wipe cache
cleared sd card
turned on debug
mounted sdcard
ran one click root, killed the smaller of the two adb processes

It seems to have run successfully I can get to # using adb

However, can't get clockworks to install now ;(

To everyone that is having trouble getting this to work the first time, don't give up. I had the same problems getting it to work but once I did, now it works perfectly every time. I have had to flash to stock and re root 3 times now and out works perfectly every time now. So don't think that it will always be like this. Its only a PITA the first time.

Re: Permanent root and one click root for the Samsung Epic 4g
 

Since you were able to do a root on your phone eventually but on same usb port it doesn't work..

I would like to ask, a few things.

1) When using your phone as mass storage, you never experience any issues?

2) Do you have any apps installed or its pure stock at the moment?

Re: Permanent root and one click root for the Samsung Epic 4g
 

I have no problems using the phone as mass storage, honestly haven't used it as such much. But when I have it has worked fine.

This was purely stock at the time.


However, I posted my issues at XDA as well and it was suggested I try entering all the lines in the bat manually. That worked, I got an error when trying to remove the last two files they they didn't exist. But I can successfully get to CKM using the 3 buttons and have since been trying out the different roms.


Thanks again for all the help!
