[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ©ertifiedMuffDiver™:
I got my Epic Touch around 5pm today. All I have to say for my first android phone this thing is on FIRE.

Lasted 5 hours before it fully died during a 20 minute phone call 1 block from my house after already one 30 minute call at first and 3 hours of internet XDA thread browsing while I was eating Chipotles after I left the sprint store. Then about an hour of Radio Shack Employees Drooling over it cuase they didnt get any to play with. it only took 2.75 hours to charge fully using my HTC touch pro 2 charger with the samsung usb wire (Was lazy to change out to the samsung adapter). I left the phone off to fully power cycle my battery for its first use in hopes this helps keep the new battery health longest.

My impressions so far is Samsung really did a good job with the new motion features to spruce up the andoid fame. the new 2 finger touch zoom in/out in broswer (I think this is a big UP YOURS to apple and the fight for pinch to zoom!) and Speed swipe the home screen to match the carousel feature of Sense UI is a major step.

Im liking the Black Phone skin compared to the Sense UI old White and Green.

The Screen is utter words Gorgous. having the same resolution as my Touch Pro 2 but having 0.92 inches of real estate really shines through. Even at the lowest brightness setting the colors are still vibrant. I cant wait to add a HD converted film on this like TRON Legacy or Avatar.

Conclusions so far is between the New Screen, the new added motion sensor features and the 8mp killer Camera with the ONLY ONE THAT RECORDS 1080p, this is one Altered Beast of a phone and Im going to love it. So far seeing benchmark scores and EVO3D's are having to overclock to get the same numbers as this device stock speed, really tells whos the King of the Pride right now.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] superleeds27:
With my X10i, i got use to using Media Go.

Arranges folders etc on the SDCard under a folder caused Music.

Obviousley i copied this filde from my SDCard onto my S2 Sdcard.

Im still using Media Go for now, but have to manually refresh/rescan in Poweramp eveytime.

Anyone else having this issue.

Back on topic. Whats people using to transfer music? I like to make sure they have covers etc, and to continue putting them into the SdCard/Music foldr, into relevant artists foldr etc.
[Galaxy S II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rj.camargo:
I'm not sure about the relevant artists function but I use doubleTwist because it pulls the playlists from itunes and syncs all the music with your phone in a folder called music on your sd card if you want. I think if you wanna use poweramp you have to manually re-scan your library every time new music is added, not sure about that though.

This is just my step-by-step for bringing a phone from stock to good condition.

The "ROM kit" part, is what I have saved to put on the SD card of the phone, preferably not in a folder

Wow a lot of things
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jimbobtexas:
Just upgraded my Evo to the Epic 4G Touch, and I'm a fan of Handcent for messaging, and prefer its notifications over the stock messaging app. On the Evo, if you disabled notifications in the stock messaging app, you just didn't get them.

On this phone, I get notifications no matter what.

Any clues?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tool2269:
open stock app, press menu, uncheck notifications.

im using handcent like i did on evo and get no stock notifications. i also replaced the stock app button w/ the handcent app. only problem...it doesnt have a little counter showing me how many msgs i have.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] PsycloneTW:
Are you saying you're getting double notifications via both stock sms and handcent event though you've disable them in the stock app or are you saying you're still getting them from handcent even though you've disable them in the stock app?

In a nutshell, you'll get them from either or both if you haven't disabled the individual notifications in each app, i.e. stock sms and/or handcent. Make sense?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Devi0124:
I believe there is a plug in in the market for that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jimbobtexas:
I only want notification from Handcent, not stock. I'm getting it from both.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jimbobtexas:
Know the name of it?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tool2269:
a plug in that works similar to the handcent widget'? of the three interchangble scrolling buttons, only apps are allowed to be used. the handcent widget works fine, its just not selectable as a button i can use on the 4button scrolling bar.

OP did you disable notifications in the STOCK app and STILL get notified?:confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jimbobtexas:
Yes. That's why I'm asking about it..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Devi0124:
Actually its in settings...it won't show on the button but should show in notification bar
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] SirWise23:
I have no issues with the notifications, however I do have Force close issues with Handcent on my phone. Is anyone else experiencing the occasional freeze up? I usualy have to task kill it or wait till I get the force close option, but it happens pretty often.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgptzac:
I just got my nook color last night and still trying to figure out some of the details. I'm using CM7 nightly. Is there a way to map the hard "n" key to something other than Home while keep the Home softkey still going to home screen? I tried to change 'n' key binding and it alters the softkey too.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stolenmoment:
How did you try to remap it?

I'd start with /system/usr/keylayout/qwerty.kl, change the word HOME to BACK (or something else easy to test; you didn't say what your goal was), and reboot. You'll need Root Explorer or something else that can mount /system R/W to change that file.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kgptzac:
The goal is just to map the best key to something more useful... though having been using it for a while having it to home doesn't feel so bad.

Another question is how do I stop the n key from waking my nook? I can't seem to find the setting for that.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrbeezkneez:
Those of you who have the wonderful Photon 4g with sprint might not want to pay for the Mobile Hotspot. After a long time fiddling with settings and trying every method I could find online, nothing worked, until now!

Needed:

Rooted photon

Wifi tether 3.1 beta 6

Tasker

Summary:

turn 3g data off, re-enable wimax, restart phone, configure wifi tether, wifi tether, walaha.

Steps:

Open Tasker (free 7 day trial, not gonna link a cracked version but they may be out there ;))

Tap the green "+" symbol. Name it anything.

Select "State". Select "Net". Select "Mobile Network". Check 2G and 3G. Click the green check.

Select "New Task". Name it anything.

Click the blue "+".

Select "Net".

Select "Mobile Data" (the one on the left)

Set it to "Off". Click the green check. Click the next green check.

Click the green "+" to make another profile. Name it anything.

Select "State". Select "Net". Select "Mobile Network". Check 4g. Click the green check.

Select "New Task". Name it anything.

Click the blue "+".

Select "Net". Click "WiMax". Set "On". Click the green check.

Now click on the first profile you made (The one that toggles 3g off)

Click the button with the name of the task you made in that profile. Click "Edit". Click the play media looking button to the right of the green check and red x.

Restart phone.

Run Wifi Tether. Set it up as so:

Samsung Galaxy S

Netd(master)

Wifi Encryption

MSS clamping: on

Routing fix: on

Tether!

NOTE: if after you restart your phone your 3g is still active, make sure your profiles are turned on in Tasker.

Let me know if its not working for you guys, tested it on 2 devices, both worked fine 5-10mbs speed.
[Motorola Photon 4G] Jo_795:
What about the phone going to idle on 4G ???
[Motorola Photon 4G] Djspinister:
I think what you are saying, if you are just turning off 3g, you can do it with widgetsoid 2.x. Just presenting another option that isn't a trial.

Good find.
[Motorola Photon 4G] gollyzila:
3G tethering works using the settings posted here for the Wireless Tether app.
[Motorola Photon 4G] mrbeezkneez:
Yes but this method lets you use the 4g tethering over wireless without ad hoc, without being knocked off.
[Motorola Photon 4G] xywh:
Hmm... ok, I did all of that with tasker, and restarted - but 3G is still on. Profiles are also on in tasker.

I mean, I think I get the same end result - I disable 3G, and enable Wimax... but still, it'd be nice to do it with Tasker!
[Motorola Photon 4G] xywh:
OK - just retried all steps.

I restart the phone, and 4G is active. When I run Wifi Tether, the Sprint Hotspot app also starts up, I get a "Mobile IP response error" and then 4G breaks and 3G comes back on... any idea what I'm doing incorrect?
[Motorola Photon 4G] kgbcapthowdy:
thanks a lot
[Motorola Photon 4G] kp4uz:
I followed all the above steps and it works on 4g perfectly. Although I think I may have a different version of the app, some steps are slightly different I was still able to figure it out. I've been trying to use wifi tether on 4g all along and finally it works like a champ. Thanks!!!
[Motorola Photon 4G] xionnoix1234:
what version of tasker u using? thanks in advance...
[Motorola Photon 4G] taxman914:
Tasker not active

I have the profiles created, rebooted and profiles still there! However, pull down bar indicates that there are no active Tasker profiles...and hence, wifi not working...suggestions?
[Motorola Photon 4G] HolyShift:
How many of these steps have to be performed each time you want to tether? I am starting to miss my Evo Shift... open the app and go. Good thing I don't tether too often. Thanks for a workaround for now.
[Motorola Photon 4G] MIschanezkee:
Not working.

I was getting this message before and still am it says

"What the hell!! Your phone is taking back control of the wifi-interface. Immediate tethering shutdown!!"

weird, just weird
[Motorola Photon 4G] snappydave:
there is a much simpler method to get reliable/fast 4g tethering. Use the data enabler widget and simply turn off 3g data by pressing the widget icon before starting wifi tether. As long as you have a 4g signal, you're off and running (using the tethering app settings recommended above). No need to reboot phone, set up profiles etc...
[Motorola Photon 4G] taylorgrandorf:
Same here. I've also noticed that Wireless Tether is no longer visible in the Market....

EDIT: Called Sprint, It's a change to their Terms Of Service. They now block Wifi Tether so the Auto-Start of Mobile Hotspot is all them. Between the Filtering and now this, I've about had it with them.
[Motorola Photon 4G] A2CKilla:
Soooo, let me get this straight....you've had it with them blocking a service that you know darn well your suppose to pay extra for that your using for free??? I'm lost here (and dont get me wrong, I dont think any carrier should charge for tethering)
[Motorola Photon 4G] taylorgrandorf:
No, I understand that they dont want it. A simple pop up would do, but blocking 3rd party stuff bothers me. Its more the principle that they WOULD block it.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
I don't know why you guys are going about this hard way...

Well there are different options on how to approach this, and it depends on which version of WirelessTether you are using. If you are using 2.0.7, your options are limited, but the 3.0 beta's are where the availability opens up on how many [Device-Profiles] you can choose from. You can reduce your output power to save battery with the older versions, but not the new ones for some reason.

Because Sprint has blocked you from downloading them, you have to sideload them. You can download it directly from google at: http://code.google.com/p/android-wifi-tether/ (Newest is Beta 11)

Here's what you do:

Open up WirelessTether

Hit the *Menu* button and press Settings.

Under [Device Profile], select Google NexusOne (This is the most common profile for this mode, I've tried different ones. Most of them work)

Under [Setup Method], select Netd (master)

(If you wish to do so, select encryption and channel options.)

Scroll down and check [MSS Clamping]

Then when you press back and activate tethering, WT will hack and take over your stock Mobile Hotspot app and you will be broadcasting an Infrastructure network rather than an ADHoc one.

It is common to see "Mobile IP Response error" over and over again until your Photon finally handshakes itself into the network. Ignore it. Shouldn't take more than a minute if it doesn't do it on the first try.

Now you don't have to download any trial apps and turn this and that off... blah blah blah. You can also setup a widget to turn off tethering using this method.
[Motorola Photon 4G] taylorgrandorf:
Are you SURE that the Sprint Wireless Tether isn't being added to my bill from this?
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
A plain and simple, yes.
[Motorola Photon 4G] kdelinux:
Now I have a different one for you ya.

First off thank you

second the steps worked. but only for 3G

third when I turn it off it loses all data connection 3G and 4G. I found I have to airplane it to jump start it again.

any ideas how I can fix this to work on 4G and why it drop everything. but calls
[Motorola Photon 4G] kdelinux:
SWEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEETTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT

please email me. I want to buy you a beer. Rshoesmith@gmail.com
[Motorola Photon 4G] someone0:
The problem I have are these:

1. It's not a service, if it's then I shouldn't have to turn it on/off on the phone. It's an effing app, they should charge for the an app, not a monthly service fee.

2. If it's a service then why can't you service yourself? I brought a car and I can choose to have an oil change myself, or any 3rd party to do it.

3. If it's a service that's exclusive to the wireless telco and they can actually make up the rule as it goes, what stop them from charging you extra $10 a month if you let your friend/family borrow your phone to make a phone call. They gonna charge voice tethering next, another $10 a month if you want to use bluetooth headset? Oh and another $10 a month for text tether.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ch.ch1:
Still goes thru Sprint and my 3G gets shut down
[Motorola Photon 4G] ArchangelRenzoku:
I don't understand what you're trying to say. Is it still not working for you? The newer versions of the app work better.
[Motorola Photon 4G] findthedr:
your instructions (and android wireless tether app) has been working perfectly for me for over 1yr.
[Motorola Photon 4G] ch.ch1:
Updated to the latest ver.

When I start the Wifi (non ad-hoc) it opens the stock wifi tether, which checks with sprint and shuts down my 3G
[Motorola Photon 4G] silverhawknike:
I suggest using FoxFi app (If you are still on Gingerbread) , you can check it out http://foxfi.com/ . Work great with my motorola photon!
[Motorola Photon 4G] ch.ch1:
If im not mistaken, it stoped working. They changed it to paid etc.
[Motorola Photon 4G] minpinbud:
It still works. The free version will let you connect for a limited time and then you have to reconnect each time your limit is reached. With the paid version you can connect without the time/data limit.

Mine galaxy 3 say that mine phone memory is full.

I have just few apps instaled on phone.

Mine question is what files is safe to delete with root explorer, so i can free a bit mine memory. I am talking about files like temporary files and similar things.

I am on Kyrillos' ROM v7.0.
[Galaxy 3 General] (•.•):
wrong forum, so no awnser.. and you should inform yourself anyway! use search!

ask the question in galaxy 3 main section or wait till a moderator moves it.

you should know it allready.. you are here since 2009..
[Galaxy 3 General] vivekmishra:
There is something called "SD. Card partrition ", get yourself informed about it:cool:. And I see you are on kyrillos 7.0 which asks you to partrition your card as soon as you boot in recovery. And, ain't you about the forum rules:rolleyes:? This is "Development Section " don't consume the precious real state of it by such silly question. And there are loads of articles & tutorials about what u r asking. Read the RULES!!! :P
[Galaxy 3 General] akil.mohan:
It's simple.

Install, move2sd enabler (root) from the market.

You need a rooted device, and debugging ON. ;)
[Galaxy 3 General] OrrPenn18:
Even the app is not required...

Simple go to Settings--Applications--Manage Apps--Click on the 3rd party app--Move to SD :D

But if u want more space on int mem ... then partitionin and apps2sd scripts :D

PS - Wrong Section so next time ask in the General Sec

Since we don't have a moderator for our forum plz do not spam....
[Galaxy 3 General] egonzalv:
Make an ext4 partition on your SD card and use solutions as scripts app2sd (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1073000) or link2sd (http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=919326).

I preffer the last one (link2sd) because I choose what app move to sd. Also i think that the app2sd script make unstable the phone.

The European SGII does USB hosting with the proper adapter. I ordered this one

http://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B005GGBYJ4

nothing happens when I connect my phone to a FAT 32 formatted thumb drive. The thumb drive works in my Acer Iconia.

I wonder if I got a bad adapter or if Sprint disabled On-The-Go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
I can't seem to get it working either. Anyone know a way to enable it. I really wanted this phone for this feature.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
from what I've seen on youtube the "host" message pops up as soon as the cable is plugged in. No enabling required. These were all European SGSII though. Samsung's own Epic 4G touch claims it works

No host for Sprint & TMO

Client only per PDADB.net:mad:

AT&T will get the OTG host capabilities.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
WHAT! WTF. That means the samsung site is wrong or Sprint actually went out of their way to disable this feature.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
There has to be a way to re-enable it like what was done on the HTC HD2. I hope the source proves useful in providing the solution to unlock the feature which is advertised.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chainfire:
The review model AnandTech had appeared to have USB host working ... so if it doesn't work on store models, it should be a firmware issue.

Note that I don't have an E4GT, I'm just thinking with you.

If on the E4GT, you can find "DSLR Controller" in the market, at least the firmware reports that it is supporting USB host ... (if it doesn't, the app will not show up in Market)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
Thanks for the issue. How difficult would it be for someone to work on a firmware modification? What does it entail? Where would one start?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dmbatson:
crap. that was also one of the main points i decided to upgrade. also i had just moments before ordered that same USB host...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
DSLR Controller beta shows up in the market from my phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Chainfire:
Well then, as I said, the phone is actually reporting to Google that it does support USB host. Maybe they made some other mistake ? The Xoom on Android 3.1 has the same issue, USB host only half works (fixed in 3.2)

EDIT: Also, have you considered bad cables? I have read recently a lot of these OTG cables are pretty crappy and may not work. Note that popping in just the OTG cable without anything attached should already flash a notification at you (though the actual popup only happens when you connect a device)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
yes I considered it.

my original post "I wonder if I got a bad adapter or if Sprint disabled On-The-Go."

I have another cable on the way so I will rule it out. It would still be nice to see if only me and JAmerican have this issue, Is it disabled? Did we get broken phones?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
I doubt our phones are defective. I believe Sprint disabled the feature. The cable I have works because I used it on my Treo 800w and had no problems.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
Just tried the cable and drive in a E4GT demo in a Sprint store. No host message.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
Go to the AT&T store and see if the infuse has the same problem
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -logik-:
Samsung shows USB Host support here:

(sorry, cant post outside links, yet)

samsung.com/us/article/tips--tricks-epic-4g-touch#USB

I have five different OTG cables, none work. Must be a firmware issue.

I do have three SGSII OTG cables.

Update: Just emailed Samsung Support... We wait...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
If host is disabled (and it looks that way) I doubt there is anything we can do about it. There is NO mention of USB Host on any Sprint website or publication. It does look like the hardware is capable so maybe someone will grab the European drivers and roll them into a flashable update.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JAmerican:
I fear that Samsung will just remove it from their site and deny such a feature exists on the Sprint version.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] anubis13:
there could be hope http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1265429&page=18
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ahhlix:
I believe that Sprint/Samsung disabled this feature because when I checked the Samsung website it showed the micro USB to USB cable and from one day to another (the supported devices) changed from the Epic 4G touch to the Att and T-Mobile variants
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ahhlix:
Or maybe just maybe in this case only the official USB host cable from Samsung will work
