Anand's review talks about the 2nd microphone used for noise cancellation. But it seems the Epic 4G Touch is missing this feature.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
Yeah, looking forward to our Whosdaman review.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daneurysm:
To be honest that feature on my E3D irritates the hell out of me. When *I* am in a setting on a phone call *I* hear the noise and it's usually very confusing that other people can't...I usually talk louder to compensate for the noise and only get asked "why do you sound like that" or "why are you yelling?"....it is especially effective with the exactl (constant, droning and predictable) type of background noise I work around. Perfect fit? No way, I have old school ears and sensibilities...the fact that someone I am having a conversation with isn't aware of or affected by the same sound that is ruining my day 10 hours a day for years, well, it's hard remember....Screw who I'm talking to, how about a phone that eliminates background noise for me? Besides, if I'm clearly busy (or trying to sound like it) the last thing I need is for my phone to make it seem like I'm in a quiet room with nothing going on.

Cool technology...the very concept of phase cancellation is what fascinated me enough as a child 2 decades ago to study sound, reproduction, recording and engineering in the first place...but...I will not miss it one bit.

Anyone noticed that the BWOne review there was a HDMI adapter while other reviews such as the AndroidPolice didn't come with one? What the heck?

Edit: From AndroidPolice "Yes, it did, but it wasn't in the phone box. It was in a bag, stuck in the shipping box separately. Thus, I didn't mention it in the unboxing."

Mystery solved.

I hear that the HDMI adapter doesn't come with it, at least its not part of whats in the box... :( speculation though, i am praying it does.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Okay special requests for my review will need to be sent by PM. I will include every request as necessary. So far the only major request I've had is signal comparison. And so far I can say that the Epic Touch is one bar stronger then the Nexus S 4G. I haven't been able to test 4G yet...

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brazildiogo732:
Ok, So. I just came from the G2 forums. I thought I was very experieced but, I am a vibrant noob. Just got used to the ODIN world and rooting the vibrant and such.

The stock ROM is very boring and I want to use Asgard on my Vibrant.

I know how to ODIN back to 2.1 and such, but I don't know if its safe to ODIN to Asgard.

I really want this ROM but I have bricked my vibrant so many times and its been a miracle I got past that. I want to be ODINing to Asgard but the thing thats freaking me out is the "no bootloaders" thing and its risky. What exaclty does no bootloaders mean and how can I get to installing one? Also, whats the bad thing about not having a bootloader?

What about rainbow screens? whats the deal with that?

Please, I need someone who has ODIN'd to Asgard before and knows what they are doing... I would really like 2.3 on my phone! Thanks!

Also: I want to be using this ROM :

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1141643
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfranklin1986:
No bootloaders means that bootloaders are not included, which is a good thing because if you're flashing bootloaders and something goes wrong you are hard bricked, if you are just using ODIN and something goes wrong you are usually just soft bricked, and can easily recover.

You have the option of using ODIN to flash the gingerbread bootloaders to get rid of the rainbows (preventing you from seeing the recovery menu on your phone) on all our gingerbread roms except CM7 and Miui. The bootloaders are backwards compatible to all 2.1 and 2.2 roms, so once you flash them you don't have to flash back.

Make sure you backup everything before flashing Asgard, because it has been known to wipe an SD card every now and then (wiped mine clean)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brazildiogo732:
yes ._. it wiped mine clean, i was so mad. So you're saying you have done this before? can i see some pictures of asgard? or maybe a video? theres not really any videos of it and i want to see if its worth the risk! :) thanks so much!

---------- Post added at 12:56 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:55 AM ----------

also, can i just use the phone without a bootloader? and also, if something goes wrong or if i dont like it, can i go back to stock with ODIN?

Also, also. can anything go wrong while flashing asgard? like can i hard brick it? and if it fails i will be safe because i can odin to stock right?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfranklin1986:
Asgard is really no different from any of jv* roms. It was a fine rom but I didn't really see anything special about it, I've flashed 5 or 6 things since.

Your phone already have the stock bootloaders, asgard will work fine with them except you will on occasion see a screen that looks like a rainbow, I know on bootup, your recovery screen (you won't be able to see recovery to flash any themes or anything), and I think on your camera you would see rainbows but it would still take the picture.

Anytime you flash there is always a possibility of a hard brick, but if something goes wrong and you see any lights on your phone at all you can get back into download mode and flash back to stock with odin.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
If youvreally wan asgard, youll greatly perferr gb bootloaders... theyre not tuff to flash as long as you flash from froyo.. rainbows means you wont see recovery and camera will be f-ed so def better with bootloaders..

Asgard is a good rom, even tho i pperfer cm7.. flash it already and stop being so paranoid :P its like impossiblr to brick these things

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brazildiogo732:
thanks for the help!

so what you're saying is, i should flash the bootloaders? and another thing, can ANYONE post pictures? I want to see asgard on the phone and maybe a video showing it off? i just want to see it in all of its beauty, that'll be the last thing that can convice me! :) thanks!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bfranklin1986:
can't link them but google edtdev and they have screenshots on their website
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brazildiogo732:
okay sweet, thanks for all your help. now i need help actually flashing it...

I have the Asgard.zip that i unzip and it gives me the odin packages.... and also, i have the Vibrant_GB_Mod.tar.md5, and the Additional_Asgard_Apps.zip.

so what are the steps? Im suppsed to unzip the asgard.zip and it gives me a .tar folder with a bunch of files in it, i understand that you are supposed to load that into the pda thing... but there is nothing else? thats it? then just flash the vibrant bootloader and I'm golden? im confused, can you please break it down for me?

---------- Post added at 08:13 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:38 PM ----------

so all i get from the ASGARD.zip file is the PDA_Asgard_06282011.tar file...

all i need to do is to put that into "PDA" and click start?

what if i want to flash a gb bootloader? as soon as agard flashes, do i flash the bootloader in the "PDA" thing again?

SO confused. would REALLY appreciate help here for the noob. >me<
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Brazildiogo732:
can anyone tell me how to flash the bootloader? after i flash the asgard.tar, do i just flash the bootloader?

Hello XDA people,

Can someone explain to me what is a kernel, and what does it do?

Currently I'm using the rok senseless extreme, and I would like to know if by flashing a kernel my phone will b faster or if the batery life will be improve?

Hi guys just got this today

Make more space application Update v1.0.2117172954.102059

My question is should I install it even though I'm Rooted? I realise I probably don't need it now that I'm rooted unless someone knows other wise
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
It installs fine, rooted or otherwise
[HTC Sensation] Ian_79a:
Was there any advantage to installing it on a rooted phone? Have you noticed any difference?
[HTC Sensation] EddyOS:
It's when trying make space on your phone using the tool in Settings, apparently it used to crash but I've never used it
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
I am waiting for this update for my WWE Asia Sensation. Still nothing. What is your version number? Mine is 1.45.707.1
[HTC Sensation] Ian_79a:
Mines ver. 1.45.401.2
[HTC Sensation] brusko1972:
does it appear as an installed application on manage applications?
[HTC Sensation] kazprotos:
Settings-->SD & Phone Storage --> Make more space

Very useful and not something that doesn't come on Vanilla Android I don't think.

Update arrived a few days ago on a 1.45.401.2 stock ROM but rooted and S-OFF

Didn't need a restart after, and hasn't broken root or S-OFF as far as I can tell after a full reboot.

Good to know updates are coming :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lithid-cm:
I will be getting this phone. I love everything about it. Being a developer how about we talk about some things people might be interested in coming into the SGSII. What things would you like to see being developed on this device? I would like to have a general discussion about it!

This doesn't mean I personally would be doing everything suggested but might be nice for future devs to see what people are interested in!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] iSaint:
I would love to see some Cyanogenmod love for this device ... :D

But also some Stable/ Fast Roms to chose from ... that would be good enough for me ;)

I really appreciate what you Devs do ...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Khilbron:
Biggest thing for me would be a good solid AOSP build with working 4G, other than that I'm good.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
I want to see kernel development and see how fast this thing can be over clocked.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stkiswr:
Possibly an aosp that keeps the HD camera. Otherwise it may just be left stock w a launcher haha. Thing looks nice!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] coiledwire:
lithid, I'd like to see the full capability of this phone unlocked by a well-written kernel, modem, etc. ;) AOSP roms are a given.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
I'd love to see Carrier IQ removed in ROMs... and I'd like to see a nice solid build of Cyanogenmod 7, MIUI, and anything else developers have in mind. I really appreciate their work, and love to see the creativity that they have :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cdszoke:
Aosp with hdmi support. Mostly for the improve bluetooth stack so we can get some quality emulator action mix in with some PS controller fun. Exynos + emulator = hopefully some smooth emulations. Mostly need this to rub in the faces of Iphone users.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ThrIsNoSpork:
Cm7 and i will be content for the life of the phone :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cudahy_boy:
MIUI **** cyanogen id rather use stock touchwiz
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AvatarOfFrost:
I would like to see MIUI on it, although I love TW4. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JasonK75:
MIUI FTW! LOL That is no surprise for those of you who know me.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tony45x220:
Id love to see Cyanogenmod 7.?? And I can't wait to see how fast the devs can push this Xynos 1.2Ghz....can anybody else say 1.6+....I pushed my epics 1Ghz processor to 1.5 with stable results...can we get a dev guestimate on potential speed?

Sent from my rooted, suited, & booted Epic 4G #knowdat!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tony45x220:
More unique features like the recent 8 lock screen mods and more status/notification bar controls possibly the tablet notification from CM7...maybe wishful thinking...idk

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
I hope Miui,CM7, and anything great gets ported to this phone. Nice custom kernels would be great as well...something that overclocks well and is stable but from the looks of it, the phone flies out of the box.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:
miui looks too much like iphone yuck

cm7 ftw!!!

My expectations are it can handle my usage patterns with no lag

Evo is lagging
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmbatson:
Everything he said, plus better bluetooth stack for ps3 controller!!

oh and i want the phone to make me a sammich! :D Guess ill have to wait for the real Androids for the last bit....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aaron130:
I also would LOVE to see miui on this device!! It's been way too long since I've used it I can just imagine where it is now!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] lithid-cm:
Miui for sure! I don't mind touchwiz at all, I would like to build a pure ICS rom for this. But I do like features, HD recording being one of them.

As long as there is a kernel released I will definitely be porting in a proper bluetooth stack into the stock kernel at the very least! Then I will be able to use the ps3 controller for my emulator gaming!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] njfoses:
Probably going to get hated on for this but a solid tw rom would be nice to see. My wife will be using this phone upgrading from the epic and besides srf there was really no tw rom's for the epic. Hopefully this changes with tw4 as there are some people that actually like tw.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] stangdriverdoug:
Hopefully Miui will have 4g working on this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Khilbron:
The sooner MIUI releases their source, the sooner they will get 4G, If they released the Evo source, it would have had 4G a long time ago.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
- MIUI

- MIUI w/Wimax haha i know i know

- custom kernel

- custom notifications

- SBC
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
Here is a thought to incorporate maybe? it adjusts the tint

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Kn0wBuddy:
I'll second the need for:

Solid

Battery optimization

Removal of Carrier IQ

Working 4G

Proper Bluetooth Stack

and variety (CM, MIUI, TW, and beyond!) Looking forward to some fantastic development!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AbsolutZeroGI:
I'm right there with you man. AOSP and MIUI are cool, but I love widgets, not icons and I could never get tethering to work right on AOSP/MIUI (stupid dns server error).

I'd like to see the Samsung offering into the Android OS market. I loved HTC Sense (all 4 versions that I got to try during my time with the Evo 4g) and our kernel developers were top notch (lithid, netarchy, toast and cayniarb = awesomeness all the time).

Something I'm sure someone will do is make a slimmed down, themed TW with and a custom kernel that provides SBC. For Froyo w/sense, we had rom devs and theme devs and kernel devs. I'd love to see that here.

I just found out that I ordered the Samsung Galaxy Tab 10.1v case on ebay. Was wondering it there are any design differences between the two?
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] 5thElement:
Yes there are. The V version is the old model which is significantly bulkier and heavier. You ordered the incorrect model. I would cancel the order.
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Djapatos:
yup there is

the main difference is that the 10.1v is bigger than the 10.1 so the case probably won't fit properly

Do you get those same errors when you try to Wipe user data/factory reset?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenRad:
No error, but the apps still reappear. I've tried doing wipes with cwm and Amon Ra with the same result.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Maybe try flashing the ROM, and in ROM Manager and hit Menu - Settings - and check Erase Recovery. Then go back one screen and hit Flash ClockworkMod Recovery to the latest...maybe CWM Recovery is corrupted? This will erase Recovery first, then flash the new one.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenRad:
Sorry, no luck. I still get the "Error formatting /data!" error when I try to format /data separately. No error when I try "wipe data/factory reset". When I restart the phone, the ROM loads and all my apps appear with my Google accounts already in place (ie - I have not entered any account information).
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RMarkwald:
Maybe try a different version of Recovery? Go to Doug Piston's site here, and download version 3.0.0.8. Name it PB31IMG.zip and put it on the root of your SD card. Reboot into HBOOT (with phone off, hold Vol Down and Power). Once the first HBOOT screen appears Bootloader should be highlighted, hit the Power button, and follow the screen prompts to update.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] BenRad:
No luck either. Not sure what to do.

1) Checking 'Back up my settings' so you can deselect 'Automatic Restore'

2) Deselecting 'Back up my Settings'

now sign into your account and no apps will reinstall just your gmail account email and contacts.
