[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottyd035ntknow:
Agree with the other posters, I do think you have a 30 day window to cancel which I would do asap. Been there and done that with the bills not making alot of money. I have a much better job currently but right now I am the sole earner for myself/wife/little girl as the wife is still in a Master's program and we just bought a house (well I did lol) and I can't imagine doing something that would keep me from being able to put food on the table, pay all the bills etc... Just pray that nothing you miss or are late on is going to effect your credit rating. If you have ANYTHING negative on that report it takes 7+ years to go away and will continually screw you in the ass that entire time. I had an error on my report that dumped my score down to 620 from 730 and I would not have been able to buy my home if I had not caught it and fixed it. Can't imagine how I'd deal with a legit credit blemish over almost a decade...

Plus, you already had one of the best phones out there in the 3D, not sure why you needed the Epic Touch... And also, in 6 months when both phones are obsolete and triple/quad cores with high definition screens are on the horizon are you going to go through the same shaznat again? These phones are now like computers, the latest/greatest is already obsolete the moment it is released. Also we are in a stage now where dual core phones are like dual core computers were when they first came out, gimmicks. Unless you had a copy of X64 and a program written to take advantage of that shiny new Athlon 64 dual core you weren't seeing jack. I rode a single core AMD Barton 2500+ clocked to 3200+ all the way through the multi core transition from 2003 to 2009 (almost 7 years) and could still run all the games I wanted due to a simple graphics card upgrade. I'll keep riding my Epic 4G with the amazatron slider keyboard through the same dual core-high def screen phone transition and then decide what to do and I would recommend you do the same with the 3D you already have.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carnivalrejectq:
Yeah....it was pretty stupid but before all the additional fees i was confident of paying it. I'm just not thrilled with the clarity of the screen outside/battery life/sound and miss all that from my epic. And not to sound snoody or dumb but I don't ever do anything involving credit usually so it's not really a concern of mine on that end. Was managing pretty welll till the girlfriend not only moved out on me but lost her job.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kanyewest:
Not 30 days anymore, its 14 days
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Silent25r:
This is just my opinion so do with it what you want.

Girlfriend first. I would have helped her out if she was living with me and lost her job. However, if she moved out and lost her job? Well, I'm not saying I would dump her. I know I wouldn't be adding a line in her name and paying 169.99 to cancel her account and trying to sell my EVO 3d to make up the difference.

Sell the EVO 3d, you can probably get about 300 or so for it. Buy the epic4touch from ebay for 500 if you like. Then I believe you will avoid the upgrade fee because it isn't a change in contract and you will avoid cancelling your gf's contract and all the other fees you were about to face. And this way you still get to use the phone you wanted.

I think what happened here is a Sprint sells person talked you into making a plan that didn't make the much sense so that they could get some commission off of you. It happens to the best of us when we get desperate for something.

You are about to pay 170 alone to cancel a contract plus a pro rated phone bill at over 200 along with the reduced cost of the epic from sprint and not a 3rd party, which is another 200? You've already probably went over 400 with that alone and we aren't even looking at tax or their new 36 dollar change of contract fee. The monthly bill would be pushing another 170 with the 10 dollar fees and all the taxes and stuff, 129.99 + 10x2 = 149.99 and a ton of tax and fees...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] churro7:
pay bills first then if you have some left go for the phone

I did
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cds0699:
Sounds to me like it would make more sense to front the $500 for the phone at retail, then sell the EVO 3D for ~$350 and apply that money twords the cost of the E4GT. Would end up costing you $150 - $200 in the end. Seems like that would be the cheaper overall way to go.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JLine05:
Easy. Dump the girl, get the phone. Pick up bar floozie and forget about girl but still have awesome phone.

Life is easy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] hoang031:
LOLOLOLOLOL

did you seriously ask if you should spend money on a new phone that you don't need or pay bills?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] aaron130:
Sounds to me like u should have just sold the 3D for $300 or $350 and just bought the phone outright at Sprint.com for $499.99

No fail, this kid needs to not think about buying luxury items and spend his money on necessary items.There's no need for this thread to exist.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] QWIKSTRIKE:
Well thought of plan, and great thinking.....I take my hat off to this kind of thinking. Sell the phone, and pay for the phone out right is way cheaper. You can buy from sprint and maybe get them to add extra 199.00 cost into your monthly bill provided that the EVO 3D sold at 300.00 also.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abowlby:
To be honest, sell drugs. If you are smart, ruthless but fair you can retire to a job running a pro shop in a small town after like two years. Make up a BS story, let the money do the rest of talking. Don't live flashy and after getting to know people in town start to buy into low risk real estate, you have a financial jump on everyone that took them generations to make. Then franchise a low risk business like a Subway, if anyone trys to stop you, pour money on them.

Become pillar of the community, get a street named after you, buy Samsung Galaxy S VI.

Haha...yes, lol. *Mr. Burns fingers*
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Duke4eva:
The phone is a amazing phone. Not over your house though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] carnivalrejectq:
Lolol maybe I gave too much details. Rent and bills willl still get payed. Thanks for the criticism and maybe I made it sound stupid but I'm grown like the rest of you. The **** will get paid so all that side I guess I'm just wondering if this phones worth the hassle of a new line. Can't ditch the girl either. She mothers my kid lol.

Sure sounds like you have a lot of problems lol.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] scottyd035ntknow:
This is probably THE BEST advice I have ever heard.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zameus:
I have n EVO 4G, and I so want to get an E4GT! I figure I can sell my EVO and its accessories for $200 on craigs, then I get my $75 discount if I renew my contract with Sprint. That doesn't phaze me, I don't plan on going anywhere, and we get a really good discount from my GFs company. So that's $275 which leaves me about another $200 to come up with. They tried to get me to get a second line, but Fak that!

But as everyone else states here, PRIORITIES man, especially when you have a kid involved. good luck! :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zayin101:
This is definitely one of the best phones I have owned to date, coming from a rooted OG Epic and had the Evo 3D for a month... until last night when I decided to go ahead and flash the custom OC kernal floating around.. instant lock up, had to do 8 battery pulls to get the phone stable, and lost signal 4 times today that require mandatory reboot. Phone is still awesome, just jumped into modding before all the bugs were ironed out..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Silent25r:
I thought I was in bad shape...

All I did was root mines and I went into lockup city and benchmarks are now terrible. Sprint repair said they will get me back to stock tomorrow. I was honest with them about rooting it.

Hi All,

I am not able to connect my Optimus black via blutooth to my Windows 7 laptop. I get some driver error. Can anyone please guide me to the place where I can get the bluetooth drivers for OB with Windows 7.

Thanks in advance.
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
Are other device with bluetooth can connect with your laptop?
[LG Optimus Black] raj_malhotra:
Yes, perfectly :-)
[LG Optimus Black] officialreloaded:
Driver setup attached

I have attached a bluetooth driver installer zip file with this post.

Download it and install it. It should work fine. :)
[LG Optimus Black] raj_malhotra:
Did not work :-(. I am using Windows 7 enterprise. It find the phone and try to pair it also, but fails to find the drivers. I have even tried to reboot after instaling the drivers you have sent but did not work.

Any other suggestion? or link to the drivers?
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
I use Windows 7 Enterprise, and doesn't have problem with bluetooth, send/recieve to/from Phone/Laptop.

Perhaps your problems come from your laptop.
[LG Optimus Black] raj_malhotra:
Strange, I follow the normal steps to install / pair the device but when it looks for the driver it gives the error for the driver :-(.

Any other suggestion to make this wor?

thanks
[LG Optimus Black] redy2006:
If your laptop can connect/pair with other Bluetooth device, then it should fine i presume..

How about connect OB with your USB cable, is it work?

This seems to work for most people. You'll get a soft brick but you'll be able to get out of it and finish the process. Read through the topic until you feel comfortable enough to try it. Also you can run the DOS file before you start the process just to see what each step tells you to do.

In my opinion the soft brick was a headache. The briefmobile method was what ultimately worked for me. I wish I had used it sooner. The DOS method worked well for rooting though.

By the way, credit to BriefMobile and the2dcour for the original guide :)

How To: Unlock the Atrix 4G Bootloader

Prerequisites

Backed up /data partition

You will lose all of your /data during this process!

Unlock SBF file [Mirror]

RSD Lite 5.3.1 or sbf_flash [Download if Atrix is Froyo]

Fastboot package [Mirror]

Also found in the Android SDK tools folder

Instructions

If you’re on Gingerbread, skip to step 13. I had to do all steps to get it to work, but I was also on 2.3.4

Power down your Motorola Atrix

Take out your microSD card and SIM card for the flashing process

While turning the phone on, hold the Volume Up button until it acknowledges RSD

Your device will say “Starting RSD protocol support”

Run “RSD Lite” on your computer

Press the “. . .” button next to the box labeled “Filename”

Load up the SBF file

The SBF file is located inside of the .zip file, you must extract it out before loading it into RSD Lite

Use WinRAR or 7-Zip to extract the .zip file on your computer

Plug your device into your computer

Use the USB ports on the back side of your computer for safety

RSD Lite should recognize your device and say “Model: NS Flash Olympus” and “Connected…”

Press the “Start” button

Be patient while the phone reboots. It will take a long time.

Open and extract the Fastboot package from above

Open a command prompt window

On Windows, press Start and type “cmd” then press the enter button

Type the following command. Your directory will be the folder where you extracted the Fastboot package.

(Example: cd C:\Users\Kenneth\Desktop\fastboot-package)

cd your directory here

Power down your Atrix device

Hold the power button and the downward volume button until you see “Fastboot”

Let go of the buttons and press the upward volume button once

You will now see “Starting Fastboot protocol support”

Plug your device into a USB port in the back slot of your computer

Front slots sometimes do not have enough power to stay connected to the device.

Type the following command:

fastboot oem unlock

You will now receive a warning along with a unique device ID

Type the following commands using your unique device ID in place of the ####:

fastboot oem unlock ####

fastboot reboot

Wait for your device to reboot. Congratulations! You now have an unlocked bootloader!

[Streak 5 Accessories] smnc:
Hi all.

I recently ordered a bunch of skins for mine and my wife's devices, but Skinomi messed up and sent me two Streak 5 skins and forgot the skin for my wife's MT4GS. They sent me a replacement skin for my wife's phone, but they're also letting me keep the spare Streak skin.

I have no use for it, so I thought someone out there night want it.

All I'm asking is enough to cover postage, packaging and my time. Lets say $7 anywhere in Canada or the continental US.

$5 if you can meet me locally in the GTA.

PM me if you want it.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] HKcow:
Dear all,

I am curious if I can purchase a larger RAM module and replace the one in my SGS resulting in more RAM space available to applications?

My SGS is running fast but I have a lot of applications installed which utilize RAM in background. As everyone know although SGS claim to have 512MB memory, the actual memory available for user application is around 3xx MB only. I am woundering if upgrade of physical RAM is feasible.

Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurre:
I'd highly doubt that it would be possible. Maybe some high skilled person could make the swap (it probably wouldn't be easy to find one..), but no-one knows if it would have even theoretical chances to work. And yes SGS has 512mb of ram..but os and apps just take their part of it in any situation.

Hi. My screen has a touch imput free area on the top part of it. It is about a half inch, just bellow the notiffication bar. My phone is rooted, and i have hotspot enabled. Other than that is stock.

Plrase advise me as to what i can do. If there is nothig i can do, is my warranty voided because root? Who should i contact for warranty? Att or motorola?
[Atrix 4G General] ccrows:
Which method did you root your phone with?...
[Atrix 4G General] cla2000:
I dont remember. I was rooted, and than updated my phone to the latest moto release. Lost root and than i had to flash somethig to get root back and than to unlock the hotspot app.

This was about 2 or 3 months back. All was ok till about a month ago, when i dropped the phone to the floor. Noticed the screen issue shortly after. Not sure if the drop caused this tho. There are no scratches on the screen, and it had a silicone case on it.
[Atrix 4G General] cla2000:
Anyone?
[Atrix 4G General] cla2000:

[Atrix 4G General] cla2000:

No help? Anyone?
[Atrix 4G General] Smittyzz:
do you think the problem came from dropping your phone or were you messing with something on your phone? and yes your warrentty is voided, but you could get your own new screen on ebay for like 30 buxs and fix it yourself
[Atrix 4G General] cla2000:
Not sure if the drop caused it. Maybe. I noticed the pb soon after. I didn't mees with the phone, other than rooting and enaibeling hotspot.

The screen on ebay, is it the same as the stock one? Same quality?
[Atrix 4G General] FtaWolf:
Try a advanced restore of pds.img from the cwm only to see if that fixes your problem.. Thats if you did backup from cwm..
[Atrix 4G General] cla2000:
No, i didn't back up anything. Just rooted. I barely mannaged to do that.
[Atrix 4G General] tl_bull:
My phone had the same thing and I sbf'd back to 1.26 and took it back no problems. Mine was also unlocked.
[Atrix 4G General] tecnic08:
I also have that problem, the problem is with the touchscreen not the software. At first, the touchscreen will not work for sometime you'll need to turn the screen off and on again. The problem will start more frequent. Then, the touchscreen on some part of the screen will not work at all. Only to fix is to call ATT for a repair. But, I live in Thailand and I brought mine at US. So, it not worth sending it back. I buy the touchscreen off ebay for $60 and change it myself. Working great now.
[Atrix 4G General] ulkesh:
Pretty cheap on ebay, some for $40. My screen started acting the exact same way. I honestly believe it's heat damage. I remember reading that there are layers of the glass that are glued together. Extreme heat could cause the layers to come apart enough that sections of the screen are unusable.

My screen is exactly as the OP said, about a half-inch from the bar at the top. I noticed it soon after I started mounting the phone in my car near the top of the windshield where it could get some steady sunlight (obviously I didn't realize it was doing that until I noticed this problem).

I just ordered my replacement off ebay and will give it a shot. It's worth $40 if it'll let me use my phone properly again and hold off having to get a new phone prior to my upgrade price kicking in.

Hopefully installation won't be too hard. Good luck to the rest of ya!
[Atrix 4G General] lakergirl21:
This happen to my boyfriend's phone recently as well. I posted everywhere trying to find a solution but no one could help. It started to get worse after about a week or so where another section, towards the bottom of the screen, became unresponsive as well. My boyfriend finally called Motorola and sent it in for repair. We don't have ATT's insurance so we didn't try that way. Anyways, he's suppose to receive the phone this Monday...we'll see if it's fixed.
[Atrix 4G General] tecnic08:
Did your touchscreen come with the adhesive? If not, you'll need to be extremely careful when you remove the old one cause you'll need the adhesive or you'll need the two sided tape with <0.25mm thick and apply it to around the touchscreen and remember to apply it as a close system or the dust will go under your screen.

If you need more info just PM me :)

[Atrix 4G General] lakergirl21:
Sorry I haven't responded, hopefully you got your phone fixed but just in case you haven't...The phone came back and he hasn't had a problem with it whatsoever. The rep on the phone didn't know what was wrong with it or what they did to fix it but whatever they did, it worked. It took about a week or so to get the phone back and the only thing he had to pay for was shipping the phone out.

Ok, I've been looking for a leather case for a while now. I think I've searched all the web but have found nothing to what I am exactly looking for. I hate the flip cases and find them annoying (this isn't '99) and HATE TPU cases because of their extremely cheap feel.

I did find a gorgeous leather case that I am extremely interested in made by Zenus. Unfortunately, they make cases for all the wrong phones like the iPhone 4 and SGSII so far. The particular case I'm interested is in this http://www.zenuscaseusa.com/ZENUS-Galaxy-Leather-Stand-Masstige/dp/B005ELMLTS?ie=UTF8&id=ZENUS%20Galaxy%20Leather%20Stand%20Masstige&field_product_site_launch_date_utc=-1y&field_availability=-1&field_browse=3207153011&searchSize=12&searchNodeID=3207153011&searchPage=1&refinementHistory=brandtextbin%2Csubjectbin%2Ccolor_map%2Cprice%2Csize_name%2Cmaterial_type%2Cspecial_features&searchRank=salesrank and just blew my socks off.

I emailed them if they would have any for the Sensation but no luck. Do any of you know of anything equivalent to this somewhere on the world?? Meanwhile, I'm looking at this case to get me by and the leather just saves it. http://www.amzer.com/Amzer-Go-Case-P91667.htm It looks like it fits like a glove. But I guess I'm not the only one who found out and its on Pre-order and sold out atm on Amazon...
