I really don't care how many cores it has. If it doesn't have a 5 row slide out keyboard, I'm sticking with my Epic. I've owned an Evo, Epic Touch and Photon. Not nearly as productive on them as I am on the Epic. Thing runs fast enough. Yes the Epic Touch with Calk's ROM is pretty fast, smooth and slick, but none of those specs help me be more productive with my phone than the keyboard does. So lets hear some rumors about something from Moto or Samsung with a slider coming to Sprint. I'd take the Droid 4 with the Maxx battery and probably be happy. Would love to see the GS3 slider with a 4.3" 600 or 720p screen and 1800-2000mah battery.

All the multi core talk gets old. Half the people drooling over it seem like they'll do nothing more than benchmark it and compare scrolling with the iphone. I'd rather hear how well it'll dual boot with ubuntu when it's docked with a slick thin lapdock that houses a nice battery and really allows me to give up my 11.6" laptop for good.

And why do u get yours in 5 days? :confused:

When is your upgrade?

Mine is june 1st and i am allowed to upgrade 2 weeks early on may 18...
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
My upgrade was availble october of last year.... yeah I've been waiting for something bigger, but ill settle with the gnex. And next week cuz that's when the money rolls in otherwise id of had it on release day... :banghead:

i wish i could put flash based swf files in signature cause i have a countdown :D

Y'all are crazy lol I'm getting the GSIII, rooting it, and happily showering in the new TW :D

Edit: my upgrade is on July 1st so I gotta hold out anyways.
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
More than likely I'll be getting the same thing. I don't think the SGSIII is the red-headed step child like the Epic 4G was when it first came out. Unreal what our devs have been able to do with this thing!!

I hope the SGSIII is available by July, but I'm not going to be a first adopter. I'll wait until root is gained with a relatively simply method and do that right out of the box.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
I severely dislike the new Touchwiz. And the S3 is basically an S2 with a new processor. If sprints S3 is dual core, then Idk if I'll get it. I hate the new launcher, I hate the new lockscreen, I was very much unimpressed with the S3 sadly :-[

Around 17 minutes into that video he said the 4G version was coming to North America this summer.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yes. And all the internet articles say by mid summer.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:

[Epic 4G General] duce102:
Yeah I knew it was going to come in the summer, but I didn't see the "USA in June" slide during the presentation due to the camera angle lol
[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
Yah, I didnt see the June" date in the streaming vid either.

Still, I will believe it when I see it.

My "best guess" is late July or August, though I would love to be proven wrong and see a June date
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
The June slide was there, SamMobile(I think) took a picture of it, but I think that will be the announcement/event. I bet release in August, but I wouldn't be too surprised for a Mid-July release either

Epic getting gingerbread by September at the very latest. There is no eta at all. Seems like the EE03 leak was intended just like DK28 for a controlled public testing.

That SUCKS!!! I guess that means no CM7 till sometime Nov or Dec if we are lucky? At least EF02 Plus is stable for me!
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Well its a lot later them we hoped, but its also a lot sooner then how long it took them last time. I'm still thinking mid august, but my source is looking into it.

He said the photon and sgs2 are slated for july 24th still but he sees the sgs2 being postponed.

Also he said the epic 2 is fictional. He has no idea where this is my next got their information, but no epic 2 prototype has come across him. And he is a person that sees everything that if going on
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
To be honest, there isn't much I can't do that's I'd want to on GB. I know it'll help, but I've really been fine with SRF 1.2. I'm sure it'll keep getting better in 1.3. I couldn't believe the jump between 1.1.1 and 1.2.

As someone who is unwilling to beta test Samsprint's ROMs for them ;-) but has mad respect for those who do, I just want my Netflix mainly.

But better late and highly stable than earlier and with some Froyo-scale type bugs (though I do loves me my Froyo).

[Epic 4G General] edscholl:
why is it so universally accepted that an updated rdf means no update for at least two more weeks? the release could still be an earlier version, and the new rdf only means that they're continuing to work on it, no? unless you're assuming there are no more updates after the next ota...
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
First of all this is samsprint were talking about

Second its a mandatory testing period

You wouldn't want a update that bricks your phone or screw it up would u

Maybe you can fix broken modem or whatever the problem is by searching these forums but ppl that have no idea of these foruns are screwed

For exaple they give a crappy modem like ef02 or ef10

Then it breaks

There will be no way to fix it but to flash another one

A crap**** load of ppl will be annoyed cause they have no clue wtf is going on

Samsung can't let that happen because if they do they will no longer have an excuse for there oh so very slow support ( looking at u froyo)

Yeah, I read people's reports. It still doesn't really satisfy my curiosity though. I just don't understand how they can go so far off-track in their modem firmware when the device is more than a year old to Samsprint by now, and earlier modems that weren't even official didn't have these issues. Not that I think I/we could do better but it just doesn't make sense to me.

[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
WiThin will not have Tegra! It has Mali GPU and Tegra phones have GeForce GPU. I guess that means SPH-D710 is WiThin. Amazing that on Nenamark, the top 8 phones are GSII. BTW here's the link

http://nena.se/nenamark/view?version=2&device_id=593

It's SPH so it's definitely sprint and it's got Mali so its probably the GSII and performs like the other ones do on the test. Also, it got WIFI certified in May if that means anything.

http://certifications.wi-fi.org/pdf_certificate.php?cid=WFA11180
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Who uses Mali? And I don't know if D710 is SGS2, I think it is the Conquer
[Epic 4G General] OrygunGal:
The specs for the Conquer (SPH-D600) on Phone Arena show it as having a 1GHz processor. The Within is supposed to have a 1.2GHz processor. If you look at the bottom of the first link, it's POSSIBLE that it's the Within.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Conquer is D600 and SGS2 uses Mali as its gpu. Source: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Samsung_Galaxy_S_II

Mali is used in the Exynos version and GeForce is used in the Tegra Version. Also, you can see that if you go to the nenamark link I gave earlier as the top 8, which are Galaxy S II devices all have Mali GPUs.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
Also for the D710 thing, Epic was D700 so that means they are in the same series.
[Epic 4G General] OrygunGal:
I'm getting more and more excited for the Within. If September 4th is the date, I'll wait.
[Epic 4G General] duce102:
Where do you work that qualifies you to make such bold statements and who is your source other than a wiki that anyone on the web can change.....
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
No the wiki was for the GPU statement about the Mali. The D700 to D710 is an educated guess, but D710 definitely exists because of its WiFi certification and nenamark standings. Also if the GSII and D710 both have Mali (according to nenamark), they are more than likely related. SPH is always Samsungs designation for Sprint devices. Also, on the nenamark link I posted, there were several GSII devices that performed about the same as the D710. It has Mali, which means it isn't Tegra because Tegra uses GeForce GPU.

[Epic 4G General] Nmonic:
I work in a high E-M environment often (broadcast transmission) And when I am in that situation I am most usually also in a situation where having a functional phone is most necessary. Capacitive touch screens can't cope with it, so having the hard keyboard on my Epic is a must.

Also, nothing on-screen beats the tactile experience of a physical keyboard. Haptic feedback lets you know you registered an input, but with touch, after using it awhile you can tell what key you are pressing without looking for every keystroke.

Even though I can upgrade Aug 1, I probably wont. I am concerned that Sprint might not have a suitable upgrade phone for me this year.
