Darren omg thanks for pointing that out.. I don't know about the bashing part... but as you can see I'm a good reader and a advice taker.

So maybe if I sat back like everybody and not create this thread for a purpose... I guess we all would not benefit from this particular thread. I'm doing more than 3 forums at once. I've thanked so many before.. so to all those that agree with with Darren.wlsn1 Speak your mind!!!! I am actually a nice person. I just don't act or type like one lol. But I'm at least happy that one of you got to spend at least 60 seconds of your time to reply. But let's not get personal... I'm not dying for you to have my baby lol

back to the topic at hand young, hows your brick doing? did you get the dg27 file downloaded?

the name of the file should look like this.

SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL.tar

i dont know if the acual name of the file really matters because when you go to browse for the file to put in the pda box it will only let you select the proper type. i know what an md5 file is and i know mine doesnt have .md5 in the title. left click the file your trying to load as the .tar and look at the properties. is it similar to what i typed above?

you got a *thanks* from me. I'm still downloading DG27 in the meantime I changed the file extension from md5 to tar and started it again.. it stopped at param.lfs in the process... and I never put anything in PDA... Only Pit and Phone. That's it.

Edit: your methods is entirely brand new to me.

you referenced this thread earlier...
[How To] Return to Stock / Fix Bricked Epic - xda-developers
this is word for word from it...
1. Open odin

2. Put your phone in download mode (Shut it off, wait for lights to all go out, then hold 1 on the keyboard while powering up)

3. connect phone (you should see odin put a Com4 or something like that in the first box. The actual number is NOT important what is important is something popped up there when you connected your device, meaning ODIN can see it)

4. Select the pit file on the right in the pit section

5. In the PDA Section you place the full Stock tar (SPH-D700-DG27-8Gb-REL.tar around 255mb) for a full wipe and full return to stock

6. check reboot on the left with DebugEn (only those should be checked)

7. Hit start. It will do its thing. Doesn't take long you can see the progress bar. If it sits on File Analysis for longer than 30 seconds its not going to happen. See the troubleshoot section below.

Device should reboot and should be done.









steps 4 and 5 are key!

that god danm dg27.tar took me over an hour to download. i truly hate rapidshare.
the same file is hosted on firon.net (a chef at xda and sdx) also. it may be a faster download.

You are absolutely right! I did that from the beginning but then maybe I got confuse with it again when I flashed to DK05 with clockwork... and then the new modem I used Odin PIT and Phone. flashing back to Stock di18 or dg27 should be PIT and PDA... The damn DG27 tar file timed out me just now... I'm gonna try PIT and PDA... I apologize about what I said earlier... in meantime can you post up an mirror link from sdx?

[austin420]

gten has it in his last post. should prolly take less than 5 minutes.
