I cannot believe they are raising the upgrade price from $18 to $36. I already thought it was ridiculous to charge someone $18 to buy a new phone and sign a contract..now they just raised it? Wtf...And I have to pay it too because my mom's Publix discount doesn't get waived act/upg fees
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
I haven't paid an activation fee in 8 years. Do they really make you pay one?

We just upgraded a line from an instinct to a blackberry style the first week of august and didn't pay the 18 or 36 dollar fee. Wasn't even asked to. It was a sprint store by wirless lifestyle in raytown, mo. They never even mentioned it. Under what circumstances do people have to pay this 18 or 36 dollars?

So everyone is pretty much getting the E4GT or next Nexus this month and/or october. However I don't make much money and my $150 upgrade isn't until January. So my question is, are the old Epics getting Gingerbread or is it being abandned?

Lol, just cause people are leaving doesn't mean the Epic 4G is getting abandoned. No, this phone is suppose to still get support up until Ice Cream Sandwich. We will get Ice Cream Sandwich with TW4 too, but after that no more updates.

just curious about the changes to the annual upgrade to biannual upgrade. If I sign up for the 900 minute plan now, which gives you Gold level, will the annual upgrades be grandfathered in? I know I have to wait 3 months to get Gold, which would make me eligible for the annual upgrade in December.

[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
I don't know about your poetry or your theory, but I'm banking on there being both a Nexus (maybe it won't be called the Prime though) and, duh, the Droid Prime since we already know about that one. The next Nexus will come out by the end of the year, as expected and will be friggin awesome. Considering the SGSII is already about six months old, I would expect the Nexus to be the best phone out there.

We know there is a Droid Prime, but there is nothing 'Nexus' about it. It's just another Android superphone. Verizon is going to slap all their stuff on it, so it's not even in the same ballpark.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
HB Optimus Prime? LG Should do that.
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
I'm pretty sure I'll stop on the Epic TOuch 4G, unless the Prime really is all that. Exynos > OMAP

I went with CM7.1 RC1. I miss CM from back in the Hero days. I might try MIUI right before I swap this out for the Epic Touch 4G.

Does anyone know if it is for sure D710?
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
I'm sad. This got unstickied :(
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
How is Exynos better than OMAP? It entirely depends on what gpu and at what speed the OMAP is using.
[Epic 4G General] gtuansdiamm:
I'm not

i got what I wanted
[Epic 4G General] Whosdaman:
Hey I'm starting to like using pictures as my response :)
[Epic 4G General] steviee7:
Positive its d710.
[Epic 4G General] muyoso:
So again, How is the Exynos better than the OMAP? The last SoC we have seen from OMAP was the OMAP4430 and contained the exact gpu we have in the Epic4g, ie the SGX540 from Imagination Technologies. If TI pairs their new 4460 OMAP processor with a modern GPU, like one used in the iPad2 for instance, the Exynos will not be "better". If TI pairs the 4460 with a dual-core PowerVR SGX 543, which is what the iPad 2 has, it would be hard for me to see it not being faster than the Exynos, especially because the old OMAP 4430 with the PowerVR SGX540 (same gpu we have) DESTROYED in the benchmarks not even 6 months ago. Also, since the discussion is talking about a Epic Touch vs some sort of Nexus Prime, you do realize that ICS which will be stock on the Nexus is fully hardware accelerated right? That is a HUGE step forward and a massive check in the Nexus Prime column.

Edit: Also, remember that last year TI paired their OMAP processor with a NEWER version of the GPU that the original iPad shipped with. If they do the same this year, the phone will absolutely destroy, as it should.

So after reading some threads here, apparantly one good way to make money is to throw together a website wrapped around a free blog tool... give it a domain name, and then call yourself a review website.

I can do this (smirk)... do we just start contact device manufacturers directly once we've spent 10 minutes putting our site together so we can start "reviewing" expensive devices and then selling them? :)

Anyone else notice slower performance with live wallpaper running? My friend has a g2x and his has no slow down. Sense doesn't scroll through home screens as smooth with live wall paper. I figured those days from laggy home screens on the og EVO were gone with the EVO 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] toxicfumes22:
Your doing something wrong then. HAHA mine is smooth. If it's fine without the live wallpaper then get rid of it?
[HTC EVO 3D] DozeBeatS:
Although live wallpaper runs better on this device than anything Ive previously seen, there is still some minor lag. Some may not notice it, but its there.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
The Live Wallpaper developers are obviously to blame as there are some Live Wallpapers that do a horrible job utilizing the APIs properly. Take for instance the Starfield Live Wallpaper. It has run like a dream on every single phone I've put it on including lower end phones, no matter how many stars I turn on. Then you have the Thunder Live Wallpaper which undoubtedly blows on pretty much everything. There are some intense Live Wallpapers that are done correctly and provide a great experience with no lag, and there are some less intense ones that really suck balls. It just depends on if they were made correctly.

Has anyone figured out the problem with AAC encoded mpa files and the tags. I'm seeing the same problem in all 2.3.4 ROMs. No music program (stock, Google Music, doubletwist, PowerAmp, etc...) will read the tags from any mpa file. MP3 files work fine. I've tried Apex 7.2, Continuum 6 RC1, and AtomicFusion 1.0. I've tried the Samsung 2.3.3 ROM and Cog 5 Beta 2, both of which work correctly. Is it because the 2.3.4 ROMs are I9000 and the 2.3.3 ROMs are Captivate specific? I don't think I'm the only one.

[Captivate General] kusanagisan18:
I had this same issue once upon a time (and whenever I reload my music files back to my phone) and what's happening here is there's a blank album artist tag in the file our something like that. I fixed the issue by loading all of the problem files into a program called mp3tag and going into extended tags and deleting the offending tag.after I did that my phone recognised all of my tags. I'm not near my computer now, but I can tell you more information later in the day, but you may be able to find the problem tag just by playing with the file
[Captivate General] 96dogpound:
Thanks. I'll give it a try. I just find it weird that 2.3.4 ROMs as a whole will not read the tags from mpa files while the 2.3.3 ROMs work fine. MP3 files work fine with both versions of gingerbread.
[Captivate General] nybmx:
I just tried using this program and I still couldn't get it to work. All my trouble is coming with my AAC/MP4 files which were encoded via itunes. The album artist fields are blank on all of them so using mp3tagger I created an "action" that would copy the artist info into the album artist field. This didn't solve the problem. There is nothing that I can delete where it would seem to change anything. I'm kinda lost here on what to try next.
[Captivate General] 96dogpound:
I tried using Media Monkey to convert a few AAC files into mp3 files. The phone read the new files without error. I think there is a glitch with the base Android OS.
[Captivate General] nybmx:
Sigh. I was hoping to avoid this. Thanks for testing and confirming.

Makes me wonder if the issue is android or samsung based (as in an issue with their code).
[Captivate General] Vivified:
It's more likely caused by Apple... if you ask me
[Captivate General] diminished5th:
Agreed good sir.
[Captivate General] kusanagisan18:
Take one of the problem files and right click on it and look at the extended tags, you should see a blank album artist tag, or band tag or something like that (may not even be blank as some were in my case!). Take note of all the extraneous tags, select all of the problem files and go back into extended tags and just delete all the tags you don't need to classify your music -- That should fix it

--I don't have much access to my computer from here but I just tried what I did before and I believe it has to do with the 'album artist' tag with a space. Just looking at one file you might not be able to see it, you have to select the entire range for it to show up under extended tags
[Captivate General] kant5t1km3:
sadly have the same problem. im trying media monkey now. i accidently made a whole bunch of songs he same album :(
[Captivate General] nybmx:
Thanks. I tried doing that already and still couldn't get it to work. I ended up converting everything back to mp3.
[Captivate General] 96dogpound:
That may work for the artist field but the title, track, genre, etc are all still screwy. The only field that is read correctly is album. I just find it so odd that these files were fine with Eclair, Froyo and Gingerbread 2.3.3

So now I cannot boot up my phone past the white htc evo 4g screen, and I cannot boot in recovery. When I choose that option in the hboot screen, it only gives me a fastboot option and that brings me right back to the white screen. I have read so many threads on how to boot it differently, but I dont understand. If I am plugged into my USB, is there a way to flash something else? I backed my phone up before I stupidly flashed without reading all the way.. I assume because I am able to get into hboot that I may be able to recover from this??

Flash the PC36IMG of amon RA or clockwork recovery. Then you should be able to flash a rom from recovery.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jiyoonsung:
How do I do that? It only allows me to fastboot.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Rem3Dy:
You place the PC36IMG on the root of your sdcard and when you boot into the bootloader it automatically searches for the file and then asks if youbeant to flash the update.

This is why I dislike root methods like unrevoked. Had you used an adb root method you would know how to do all this.

A week or so ago, I flashed this ROM onto my phone. ([ROM] (v1.2.6_r2) Nexus AOSP Gingerbread 2.3.4 - Faux123 [Jun-26-2011] - http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1068367&page=189)

I had to end up switching back to stock ROM. Ever since the flash back to stock, my memory card has been "locked"

In the process of flashing my phone back to stock, my external Micro SD card became locked to "Read Only". I cannot format or erase any of the content that was stored on my card during the flashings. It literally seems to be "LOCKED" onto the card.

I've tried the windows format option in the Device Manager. I've also tried the Windows Command prompts. NOTHING has worked. Formatting the card in my phone does nothing. No data gets erased.

With the card in my phone, I can access all my files (movies, music, pics, etc). But I cannot modify, delete, or add any new content! (Example, I cannot select my External SD as a valid storage location for new pics in the camera.)

Does anyone have any ideas on how to reformat this card to get it working for me again. It is a 16gig card. I hate to throw it out.

Thanks.
