There are no memory leaks and the reboots are a voltage issue. Download Memory Booster Lite and look at all the crap loading into your memory that the crap stock task manager doesn't catch. I always have 170MB free Ram and no reboots on EH17. If you want to stop the reboots buy Tegrak and install setCPU and follow what we did in the fix for random reboots thread". It is definitely Sprint and the OTA holding things up.

All I know is if gps isn't fixed I will be getting the Epic 2 free for failure to provide a phone that worked as advertised. I arely use gps, but when I do it's for a good reason. And I've gotten screwed twice in the last 4 months, one making me almost miss a race.

Otherwise I love this phone, and people hoping for another company to make a premium slider, yeah, good luck with that. Moto and Samsung are the only two companies that have a clue.

HTC...small screen, 4 row keyboard. No cursor keys. Crap shortcut keys. And stiff action. Where is the 4" version of the Arrive's design?

LG...A little better. They have a dedicated number row but your bottom row is Z-M split with the spacebar between V & B. Think all punctuation is done via the alt key. I could live with that, but. Don't think that slider is coming to Sprint.

Anyone else? Haven't seen a slider from anyone else come close. Such a wasted opportunity, and I don't understand why our keyboard/screen combo is so neglected.

So it's the Epic 2 for me. And it better....

-have a smaller footprint and be a touch thinner

-improved slider mechanism

-have SAMOLED+ or HD SAMOLED

-have a better keyboard, better than the Stratosphere. Why do I need the hard keyed menu, back home and search keys when they're on the screen portion. Just engrave the things or light them up when the keyboard is lit. Gives more space to better space the keys out for an improved typing experience.

-bigger battery

-hdmi out

I could live with a 1.5ghz single core. I played with a mytouch 4g slide for a bit and it didn't blow me away during normal usage compared to the Epic.
[Epic 4G General] slybarman:

I guess I should've said Rumored Epic 2. And my bad, the rumored epic 2 will supposedly be 1.2ghz.
[Epic 4G General] adelmundo:
That's an old post in June and the Epic 2 is already out aka Samsung Galaxy S II Epic Touch 4G, which has no hardware keyboard and came out more than a month ago.

There is hardly any difference between Froyo and Gingerbread. Most people don't care.'

Yeah its not that great compared to ours the epic 4g touch is much better and is already out
[Epic 4G General] dbpaddler:
Considering all you really have rumor wise is the processor and screen size, you don't really know what it's bringing to the table. If it has anything I mentioned above, I'd be a happy camper. I'd love dual core and 4.3-4.5 on the screen, but if the design, keyboard and screen are an upgrade, the incremental upgrade on the processor is livable. That's provided they don't price it at $200. Heck I'll push for free since the Epic never performed as advertised, at least for me and the gps which has been noted on my account for quite a while and is still a known issue.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
If anyone's good with GSM and AT&T, they can get a phone similar to GS2 called Galaxy Glide, which has keyboard and dualcore. Same screen as us though, not SAMOLED+.

[Epic 4G General] dbpaddler:
Crap keyboard. How they ditched the number row on a 4" slider is beyond me. Scares me to think if there is an Epic 2, it might have a worse keyboard than its predecessor.
[Epic 4G General] Ceelos09:
Has anyone actually taken a look at the Stratosphere's source yet?
[Epic 4G General] gTen:
Because they are in a more convenient spot to use there, and they are used in shortcuts..like select something and hit menu+C = copy, menu+v=paste

you mean MHL?
[Epic 4G General] dbpaddler:
No. not really.
[Epic 4G General] tbob18:
You'd probably be better off creating your own thread in Q&A, but I'll try to answer anyway.

The Epic 4g has not officially gotten GB yet, but now that Official Epic GB Source has been released, anyone on stock EC05 will probably get an OTA update within the next few days/weeks, and the GB modems tend have faster transfer rates over 3G.

In general the Epic has pretty bad speeds when compared to other phones on Sprint (the Photon, for example), it also could be the recent release of the iPhone 4/4s on Sprint bogging down the network in your area.

I noticed that cheap USB cables tend to deteriorate over time.. For example my stock Samsung cable won't work with Odin anymore, so I had to buy a new cable.
[Epic 4G General] stir fry a lot:

[Epic 4G General] austin420:
Lol. Epicly funny
[Epic 4G General] drizek:
The sad thing is that that is actually how my writing comes out on the Epic.

I bought the phone because it had a hardware keyboard, but in reality I can type more quickly and more accurately on my iPhone. If it wasn't for Swype, my Epic would have been unusable.
[Epic 4G General] sephiroth009:
Wow, unusuable. I use the keyboard for all of my messages unless its a short text which I use swype for. The keyboard isn't bad you're just bad with it. I'm typing this message with it right now. On screen keyboards never worked for me due to my big hands and they have the tendency to not be recognised on a few websites. Not to mention how much of the screen it takes up so I can't see what i'm typing.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] benqas:
Hello, guys. I have a problem with vibration on notification on silent mode. I had flashed CM7.1 yesterday, before that I had Oxygen 2.3. With Oxygen everything was ok, after flashing CM7.1 when I get message in silent mode phone does not vibrates. I tried reflashing ROM couple times, re-dowloading it but nothing helps.

On Sense ROMs everything works fine. I checked all settings in sound menu and they look fine. Tried download Sound Manager from Market and set settings to Vibrate whenever is possible. Done that and no luck there either. Maybe someone had faced this kind of situation and has experience. Every suggestion would be appreciated.

Thank you.

BTW, Phone uses CWM 5.0.2.0

Radio 32.54.00.32U_5.14.05.17
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] stankyou:
This may come off weird but I had this issue when I flashed CM7.1.0 over the nightlies I was using. I am not really sure what fixed it but I've tried playing around the sound/vibrate settings. Under settings>sound>vibrate I originally had it set to vibrate only in silent mode. But it didn't work after flashing so I changed it to vibrate always. Then I toggled it back to Only on Silent mode and it's working again.

Weird...
[Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] walkah21:
So this just started a couple of days ago. When I press my lock button to wake my phone up, I now have to wait 1-2 seconds before I can enter my unlock pattern. The screen lights up, but I watched it and it will light up a little bit more after that 1-2 seconds and THEN I can enter my pattern to unlock my phone. I mean, it doesn't hinder my phone's performance after I unlock it, it's just kind of annoying that I can't enter my pattern right away. The same thing happens after I pull the phone away from my ear after a call, I can't pretty the "end call" button until 1-2 seconds after the screen illuminates. Anybody ever heard of this?:confused:

[Epic 4G General] adelmundo:
Same here. I had 1xxxx as well and it's back to 60681.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
2xxxx series PRL are for 800MHz SMR CDMA phones only (Evo 3D, Photon).

11xxx series are corporate PRLs. 11115 is the latest and I recommend this PRL to everyone because you get 3G roaming.

60xxx series PRLs are for consumers. The latest consumer PRL is 60681.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
my wife and i (i evo 1 epic) both are on 60681, and she gets 3g roaming... whats up with that?
[Epic 4G General] slartibartfast42:
what happens if you have a 6 series and flash a 1 series? Where do we get Verizon PRLs?
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
On the bill, all CDMA data is 3G data according to Sprint.

Two things, firstly on the stock rom 1xRTT (2G) shows up as 3G on the Sprint Smartphones.

Secondly, yes there are some areas where consumer PRLs do get 3G roaming, these are areas that used to be part of the old alltel CDMA network. This is because Alltel made a reciprocal 3G roaming agreement with Sprint.
[Epic 4G General] lynyrd65:
You get 3G roaming in nearly every market. If you use roam control you can use Verizon or US Cellular as if they are your native network.
[Epic 4G General] younggangsta_s:
I am the OP and there are people who are on 21080 and 21081. That's why I asked if 21081 was the latest.

If you root the stock rom you will still receive ota updates. You can also manually flash updates(best method). Please do alot of reading about rooting before attempting anything. Had you done this you would have known the answer to your question. Learn how to use adobe and fastboot.

[Motorola Droid Bionic] dbutters:
I received my grey/white silicrylic case in the mail yesterday. It looks great and feels awesome, really is a pleasure to use.

My problem is, it just barely fits into the car dock (with the insert removed). It doesn't quite make enough contact with the charging port to charge, meaning it doesn't go into car dock mode (also, sits there and drains the battery). Has anyone else had the same experience (or the opposite)? Any idea where I need to hit the dock with my Dremel to make it fit? I can't quite tell where it's too tight.

Edit: Looks like it's on the bottom right corner as the dock is facing you... I think the acrylic part of the case is maybe 1mm too long for the dock. I'll try shaving that bit down a bit when I get home and see if that works.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] cryptiq:
I had the same issue with the HD Dock. Even tho others say they're silicrylic worked fine with the HD Dock, it was a very poor connection that would cause the webtop app to reset if i bumped the phone...and yes that was with the shim/insert removed.

As for the the Car Dock...it might be easier to cut the plug out of the dock so that you can raise it into a higher position and then use epoxy to set it back into place...or switch to a different case. I use Incipio's feather case now and I like it. Granted it doesn't offer as much protection...I just handle the phone more carefully than I've ever handled a phone before. It's too bad the hard shell of the silicrylic isn't easier to remove. if you're not careful, taking the shell on and off you'll eventually tear the silicone piece. Good luck.
[Motorola Droid Bionic] dbutters:
Official word from Incipio is that the case is not compatible the dock. I'll show them...

Does anyone know how the bionic knows to switch to dock mode? I don't see a magnet inside the dock anywhere, and dock mode only seems to work when the power is on.

Edit:

Broke out the Dremel this evening, trimmed off the lip that sticks out over the bottom right corner of the phone when it's on the dock, then expanded the hole through which the microusb charger comes so I could push it through about another millimeter so that it reaches far enough to charge the phone. I'm overall very happy with the situation. Kudos to Motorola for making the dock so roomy; I really had very little work to do to make this happen.

One very important thing I learned about cutting/sanding plastic with the Dremel - go with the slowest speed that will do the job. If you go too fast, you end up melting the plastic instead of cutting it or smoothing it, and it looks awful.

it installs and says its completed then I go to reboot the phone. It's just got the HTC logo/text with white background and does not change. Not sure what is wrong here. It's S-ON, but is rooted apparently, so I can flash custom ROM'S just not flash radios etc.

I did however try like 5 custom roms, and the only one that works so far is 'MiUi' but it is buggy and wifi does not work. Dunno why.. don't really like the look and feel of it though. So want to try cyanogenmod or either android revolution.

I can't even go back to stock as easily, I've tried, (ran the .exe, opened up %tmp% and taken the rom.zip and did a series of commands to do it) and comes back with failed. I have HBOOT 1.16.0000 though and all of the stock ROMs say 1.13.0000, so not sure what to do. :(
