GrooveIP

SipDroid is free, but I found it a little complicated to set up.

I have been using a program called GrooveIP. I believe it costs five dollars but it works very well, and it allows you to make calls over 3G/4G (I don't believe SIPdroid allows this). I believe it also integrates well with the native dialer--a feature I like.

But, I guess it's all about how you want to use it. Good luck!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] zilla1000:
You can check the Sprint on the Sprint to home service, which allow you to make / receive calls from 3 landline numbers for free. I got this from Sprint without charge because I have bad reception at my home. Just includes your GV in the 3 numbers then you can make unlimited calls via GV for free. I am using Google Voice Callback apps to make calls via GV. If you dont mind not to see the Caller ID, you can also get the incoming call for free -

Go to GV Inbox > Settings > Calls > set Caller ID to Display my Google Voice number > Save Changes.

Search Google Voice help with "Sprint to Home", and you will find more details about this.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] subcypher:
Say what? Get a Google Voice number or port your Sprint number to Google Voice. If you're on Sprint and have this phone you're already on an unlimited account. Even if you have a limited number of minutes they only count between 7am and 7pm Monday through Friday and only when calling land lines. All calls to 800 numbers and cell phones on any network are free. Google Voice fits in flawlessly with Sprint. I've been using it since Beta and watched it continuously improve!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fonseca898:
Google Voice works flawlessly with the GS2. I make and receive calls through it for business use all day. Like subcypher said, if you don't have a dedicated Voice number, link it with your Sprint number. I have a separate Voice number for work calls, and friends and family use my actual cell number. I'm constantly switching between both and have had zero issues.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JimSmith94:
Can you confirm that calls to 800 numbers are free? :confused: I always thought only mobile to mobile was free, and only while not roaming. Any other calls, including landlines and 800 numbers, get charged from 7 AM to 7 PM weekdays.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] subcypher:
Just for you, because we're all in this together, I called the always lovely Sprint Customer Service and asked them about this. They said that 800 calls to land lines will count between 7am and 7pm. They said that if the 800 happens to go to a cell, that call will not count. They also said that, in most cases, even if you are roaming within the US, calls to mobiles will not count. If you roam more than 50% of the time or some equally ridiculous amount, mobile to mobile calls may count, but not always. If you are international with no international plan all calls count. Interestingly, if you call someone at 4am and the call lasts until 8am, the entire call will count, but only if you called a land line.

Thought you guys would find this interesting. I love these kind of comparisons!

If anybody has some tips on better camera picture taking or apps that help mod pics please add.

[Galaxy S II General] Remix2011:
and yet Phonearena.com rated the T-mobile my touch slide 4G camera(pictures) below the SGS2
[Galaxy S II General] blunted09:
Taht is supposed to be a good camera as well from what I hear. Im absolutely impressed with this camera though. Apple's camera is excellent and its nice to know that ours is one of the kings!
[Galaxy S II General] JuniorGG:
Well, we have to say... we all know that not all the SGS2s have the same camera mouted in...

Mine shows the pink spot, others don't. But mine can autofocus pretty well in 1080p videos, while others can't....

There are different camera firmwares because of the different cameras mounted.

Said that, I seriously doubt that all the SGS2 cameras actually perform the same.

So these comparisons can't be considered as showing the absolute truth.
[Galaxy S II General] skimminstones:
just dont read the camera comparison on engadget at the moment. Its truly awful and just basically an advert for the iphone
[Galaxy S II General] traspler:
If they had done this comparison with my phone, every picture would be blessed by a huge, pink or blueish/greenish dot right in the middle of every picture.

Good to see, that there actually are phones with a good sensor. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] ea3aitjr:
I am very disappointed because no one is asking the MIUI team to develope a MIUI version for our terminals.

It's truly a shame that we have a terminal so powerful but with a bad kernel

I encourage the users of this phone to ask HTC to solve the problem with the Kernel and ask the Miui team to consider offering us their wonderful interface.

Come on !!

I'm not sure if it's the email app or the gmail app but i love the "outlook" style with the email list on the left and the actual email on the right. Also being able to zoom in and out of emails would be amazing! I don't know if this can be done or not but I was wondering if it's possible! Thank you!

[Samsung Infuse 4G] socialal:
Ok so in trying my first go at designing a ROM I screwed up somewhere along the way. I currently cannot boot into CWM, but the phone will boot into download mode. GTGs Ultimate UnBrick kept freezing so I unzipped the files and attempted to Heimdall them (sounds dirty dont it)

With heimdall i get the error message of the factory fs/rfs being an unexpected size. 288 instead of 287 About to try a flash with that portion left out. But If anyone has ideas or knows how to fix. I'd reallt appreciate it
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jvanlew:
Out of curiosity, how far was Odin getting before freezing when you were trying gtg's unbrick procedure? I'm not familiar with Heimdall so I can't help from that angle but I've used GTG's procedure MANY, MANY times. LOL.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] socialal:
it was getting to about 75-80% done and it would hang...and just as an Fyi I wasnt jumping the gun..when I timed it that was at about 2hrs when I figured it wouldnt progress any further
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jvanlew:
Using the gtg files currently on your computer, you've been successful with gtg's unbrick procedure before? If not, I'd try downloading them again or from another source. I can PM you the zip I have successfully used before if you want. Just let me know. I'm just trying to rule out the possibility of a corrupt download.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] socialal:
thanks for the offer but yeah Ive used this set before, several times as a matter of.fact

..Ive also tried using 3 seperate Dl's as well from 2 diff PCs. Just for that reason. Ive also tried running it directly from within the zip file as well as extracting and running..If i figure it out I'll be sure to post what worked, you never know what might help someone else.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] LG_iiNsTiiNcT:
Are you running Odin as admin?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] socialal:
I have/had it set to run as admin under the properties. It turns out that the battery had gotten low enough so that there wasnt enough of a charge, for the Ult. Unbrick (or any flash) to complete. Phone is notorius for suck up juice faster then it charges. I left it plugged into the wall for like 6 hours before trying again. Lo and behold unbrick ran and completed in about 5 mins.

However now Ive got another issue..Phone will not recognize the SIM card. I have had it in my iphone 3g while ifuse was down so I know that it works but when I switched it back to the infuse its a no go...looks like another sleepless night spent reading and researching :(

Placing the zip file in the correct location should've replaced the AT&T one. You have to be running the version of Entropy's kernel that supports boot animations as well. It won't work otherwise.

I'm running Cyanogenmod 7 and it works fine on there as well.

From the .zip file you download (Biosboot.zip), extract the contents, go into the system folder, go into the media folder, and you should see bootanimation.zip.

Take that file and put it on the root of your MicroSD card.

Open the terminal emulator.

You'll need root access to execute the necessary commands:

su

mv /system/media/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip.bak

cp /mnt/emmc/bootanimation.zip /system/media/bootanimation.zip

Note:the second line is NOT required, but I wanted to backup the default Cyanogenmod7 boot animation in case I ever decide to revert back.

A bad esn is when the previous owner didn't pay their bill or the most recent account is not in good standing.. meaning that the "esn" which is a number encoded into the phone will not be programable to another account..

Not trying to discuss modification of it. I have a friend that got a evo3d by trading his phone for it. I was thinking of buying the phone from him but he told me the phone was still activated with the previous owner so i didn't want to end up with a unusable phone. I thought if the previous owner disconnected it it would get a bad ESN or I wouldn't be able to activate it with Sprint
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] j7jman:
Ohh ok cool.. yeah if the account was left in bad standing (didn't pay bill) then there's a bad esn.. but if they simply ended his contract you're in luck, but it doesn't seem as if they did that.. my advice is to not buy it man.. from my experience its gonna be a pain in the a$s to deal with.

I'm assuming you went and joined the "beta" to get the installer...that would be the newest version available.

Look at the bands in the specs - if you don't see UMTS1700, it won't work.

And I have NEVER seen that in the specs for ANY AT&T phone, EVER.

In rare situations, T-Mobile phones supported one (but not both) AT&T bands, but I've never seen any AT&T phone support T-Mo bands.

Vibrant only supported one of the bands (1900), so it only worked on att 3G in some markets, not everywhere. Some markets only use 850.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
No. 3G and 4G use the same bands. You MUST have 1700 AWS support in order to get T-Mo 3G or 4G. Good luck with that. Only T-mo or some Canandian phones support AWS.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BarryH_GEG:
You'll get EDGE/GPRS speeds. Typically between 256 and 512K. To get anything higher you'll need a phone that supports 1700/2100 of which there aren't many other than the one's offered by T-Mobile itself.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] runtohell121:
Simple answer: No.

You will only get EDGE speed on any AT&T phones. There aren't many phones with 1700 band besides T-Mobile phones.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Ace42:
It's funny how T-Mobile's "SGS2" supports AT&T's bands, but not the other way around. But then again their "SGS2" seems more like an Amaze IMO since it's using the darn S3 & not Exynos >:l (points at tmobile). I really wished Sammy could fix the Exynos, so it could support Tmo, because it feels wrong when Sammy teams up with Qualcomm....End of rant.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] foxbat121:
The only reason T-mo version uses Qualcomm chip is because it needs the 42mbps HSPA+ radio from Qualcomm. The upcoming LTE version of GS2 will also use Qualcomm chip because it needs to use the Qualcomm LTE chip.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] BarryH_GEG:
The Korean Celox, on which the TSGS2 is based, is an LTE device and using a Qualcomm chip. The two recently announced Korean SGS2 models will be LTE and using a 1.5Ghz version of the Exynos chip. Samsung went with Qualcomm for the TSGS2 and Celox either to shorten time to market or the projected quantities weren't sufficient to modify Exynos. Evolutions of Exynos will continue to power Samsung's flagship phones and tablets starting with the G-Note and G-Tab 7.7.
