Also, from this thread: (there's a video review)

The best price you can find for the epic touch specific windshield mount is $39.99.

The Samsung Infuse windshield mount fits our phone perfectly, it's the same form factor, and you can take advantage of a carrier that isn't even yours:

And, there's a discount code you can use on top of that:

Or, if you buy it from the AT&T store in person, you can pick up a desktop dock for one cent as a bundle deal with the windshield mount:

If you look at that thread, you can see a video review of the windshield mount, and see how you can modify the desktop dock since that one is apparently a little snug with our phones... but for $0.01, I'll take it and modify it, or live with it snug.

I went to local ATT store today, 50% off car dock, but no bundle deal (and only 25% off) on the desktop dock...as said above, would shave down desktop dock, but not for $30!

That's a great deal on those batteries, but I wish the charger was a more intelligent charger. I wish I could have one of those at work and one at home, so I could have an extra battery on the ready, without having to worry about how long it's charged and whether I'd unplugged it.

Do you say 1750 because you notice less time than the stock battery?

Edit:

I found this on Amazon - anyone know anything about Hyperion? These are 1800mAh batteries, plus a smart charger, and batteries that themselves have some overcharge protection built in...

http://www.amazon.com/Hyperion-Spri..._11?s=wireless&ie=UTF8&qid=1319850493&sr=1-11

That seems like a solution to let you have a battery on the charger at work, and/or a battery on a charger at home, with the charger doing the work of controlling the charge to prevent overcharge.

Sweet - IF Hyperion batteries are what they say they are.

Anyone?

infuse car dock which works perfect with the et4g is like 18 dollars, and the home dock rings up for a .01.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] walord:
No, I don't see any time difference between the OEM and the the Anker 1800mAh batteries in run time, but my batteries never get near to running out by the end of the day. These Anker batteries are well reviewed by the original Galaxy S owners and have been tested to be about 1750mAh. They are the only after-market batteries that I know of that come anywhere close to their claimed capacity.

If you want a good charger for our batteries, anything for the OG Epic, Captivate, Vibrant, i9100, etc will work...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sam Sung:
For reference, in my local store it didn't work when they scanned the car dock, then the desk dock, but when they scanned the desk dock then the car dock, the desk dock came up for $.50 (car dock was $17.01).

So for those who don't get the expected deal, it's worth asking them to scan in a different order, as different locations have produced different results.

The desk dock comes with a charger. The car dock doesn't.

I got the Xtreme Guards full body protector from Ebay. I actually had to go back and change it to a full body instead of just screen as I was typing this. haha

For under $4 the full body protector seems like a steal. For under $1.50 the screen protector seems like they're giving them away.

Though, I will say I've heard mixed reviews.

Tough Case Deal

Still waiting on mine (they expect stock after the 29th):

http://www.theaccessoryking.com/cas...epic-touch-4g-case-mate-tough-case-black.html

These cases must be decent, since most places seem to run out. But if you have to wait, you may as well wait for the best price.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jameson JC:
Sam Snug,

Do you think that this really offers twice the protection (and sincethe cost but it is only $10 or so more, cigarettes nowadays...) over the tpu-cases offerings? Also, what kind of added bulk as well as "ease of use" issues does it have. Meaning, does it slide in and out of the pocket easily, come on/off easily and withstand on/off often without stretching?

I have a number of stock batteries that I rather change out than charge my phone. I use a stand/charger (samsung brand) and rarely plug my phone in to charge. So the case withstanding these multiple switch out moves is necessary. Simply put, for the protection (I have dropped my phone many times with the tpu case from 2-4 feet and just light scuffing. My phone with a steinheil screen protector could go in a box and be sold as new... I strongly suggest this combo, as these phones DO NOT do well in drops. Sure the screen may survive drops well, but the edges of the phone get gnarly and nasty. My first one was pretty beat up after about 5 or 6 drops (glad it malfunctioned and I got a new one for free really!) and my new one, had this treatment of case/screen protector within 24 hours of taking out of package.

Hope this helps someone....

JC
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Guillo1:
very nice thread, wish I had found it before I bought some accessories
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sam Sung:
I can't really say, given that I have yet to receive my order, but there are many good comments about this case around the internet, including in this forum. You can search (Google & XDA) for the terms:

Tough Case Case Mate CM017002

If you add 'reviews' to the search terms and you'll find several video reviews.

At the present, I do have the combo you speak of (TPU and Steinheil). However, I prefer a greater degree of protection so that I don't have to treat it with 'kit gloves'. The TPU case doesn't provide that, IMO. All that I've read leads me to believe that the Tough Case will. We'll see. I'll report back to this thread after I've received it (likely the beginning of Dec.)

I'm not sure how Tough Case will stand up under frequent removal, or how easy it might be to get on and off. As earlier mentioned, I'll know more after I have it in hand. I'll be keeping the Steinheil on.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] geolemon:
For cases, I'm legitimately impressed with the $8-shipped tpu case, especially matte black. It fits better, is slimmer, looks more OEM and classier, and offers all around protection... It is definitely a bargain, a high end looking one even.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sam Sung:
This distributor now has stock on these cases, if anyone is interested. I received an email today notifying me of shipment.

$1 Stand

I posted this in the other thread in the general section, but thought I'd add it here as well.

I ordered this and it came a few days ago (took about 2 weeks exact to NY). I wanted to wait a few days so I could see how I liked it. Now I can say with confidence, I LOVE it.

It has 2 angles, a near 90 degree angle, and a 45 degree angle.

It works both ways horizontally and near 90 degrees vertically.

However, it does not stay up vertically at 45 degrees.

Attached are some pictures. Note: I have the matte back TPU case on it.

Here is who I bought it from:

http://www.ebay.com/itm/Pink-Mini-P...355784?pt=PDA_Accessories&hash=item415efa9948

Currently they only have the pink listed. However, when I purchased mine, the black wasn't listed either. I emailed them and they said they had it, so I purchased it. I would contact them first to ask if they have the color you want.

Just trying to contribute to this great community that's given me so much over the years. I hope this helps someone looking for a cheap dock/stand :D.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Sam Sung:
Just posting back with my take on the Case Mate Tough Case for the 4G TOuch:

First, JC:

Although this case isn't too difficult to get on and off, I don't know if I'd want to do it as often as I needed to put in a spare battery. I have removed it a few times to change sd cards for the purpose of flashing new roms and such, but geneerally, I leave it off until I'm done and then don't have to remove it again for a while, maybe several days.

The rubber liner is a bit flimsy. Not as sturdy as the TPU case, but it is an inner liner. Once the hard shell case is on, it definitely surpasses the TPU case in terms of protection.

But really, I like the feel of this case. It's easier to hold and grip and gives me a feeling of assurance. I don't have to treat it with kit gloves anymore (and honestly, I never felt like the TPU case was any protection at all).

It's worth having, IMO. I may switch bact to the TPU occasionally, but the Tough Case is definitely my main case. Anyone interested should bear in mind that it has no holster or belt clip. There may be some other brand's holster that will fit it, I don't know. It's great for keeping in pocket or in my Nite Ize side case (yes it fits):

http://www.amazon.com/Nite-Ize-Clip...347M/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1322789552&sr=8-1

Definitely worth the $21 & $3 shipping I paid (see link in earlier post this thread).

Just thought I'd add another 'deal' to the thread:

Software Data Cable

This is an ftp server for your android phone (free). Works like a charm. Use whatever ftp client you wish at the pc end. I use Filezilla. Takes seconds to have a wireless connection to your PC via wi-fi or 3g.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] casperlt1:
I also just received my Case Mate Tough Case today and I have to say for the $25 I paid for a $35 case, not bad at all.Like dude above said..inner liner is flimsy but once its all together its solid.Now I'm not super worried it'll shatter if I accidently drop the thing.Great buy and would recommend it to anyone looking to get one..but don't pay the $35 lol.

On a side note..in my order theres a card with

"Save 20% Use Coupon code CM10-TH20"

Offer valid for 30 days....

I'm not going to use it, so I figured I'd share it.Later
[Galaxy S I9000 General] rosse912003:
I became so disgusted with Samsung while waiting for the 2.3.3 upgrade, I gave up a phone company in town upgraded my phone to 2.3.3 for me and it works great. I am happy about that, however KIES now says my phone is not able to be updated... I bought the phone from Vodafone Australia and the firmware looks like it is from Korea?? CSC:JVK (KOR).

Does anyone know how to fix this?? Must I change the firmware again?? The problem is that I have never seen a firmware that is Australia based.. Is it possible to change some setting to trick the phone into thinking that the firmware is from Australia and therefore allowing the updates to occur??

It can't hurt to ask...

Thank you for any replies...
[Galaxy S I9000 General] LiverpoolFCfan:
You will have to reflash your phone if you want to get it back to an Australian firmware.

The KOR one is the generic Samsung (Korean company) firmware.

You can check out this web site http://fus.nanzen.se/ to see if your service provider has released a 2.3.3 firmware as yet.

If they have, you can use the CheckFusDownloader application from that site to download the firmware, and you will need to follow the instructions available in this forum to flash the firmware to your phone.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] n99flake:
You can change CSC without reflashing (sometimes).

You just type a code into your phone on the dial-pad, utilising your IMEI code, (i think you type *#06# to find out IMEI).

Be aware, one you select a new option (If you have multi CSC on your phone) your phone will reboot and wipe itself with the new CSC. So i say this once and only once DO NOT DO THIS UNLESS YOU ARE FULLY BACKED UP, and/or also don't mind starting from fresh again.

For Galaxy S it is *#272*IMEI CODE#.

Also, my phone is updated to latest firmware and KIES does not recognise it. This is good, because Kies is bad. I'd advise to backup your stuff manually, it's not hard.

If you are using Galaxy S I9000, i strongly suggest getting to know how the program ODIN works. There are plenty of guides on here, and unless you're a total dweeb or seriously unlucky it's a very easy process and hard to balls up.

But, as always, make sure you know what you're doing.

You should be able to get JVT now over KIES.

Flake x

---------- Post added at 12:10 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:50 AM ----------

Also, to my knowledge, it doesn't matter if you're on the wrong CSC.

The only problem you may encounter is that Market may have a different selection apps, and some may be undownloadable, other downloadable.

Basically, if keywords like 'flashing' and 'Odin' put the fear into you. It's ok, it doesn't matter. My phone ran on KOR CSC for 6 months without any problems, albeit i'm in UK.

Hope this is of some help.

EDIT:

AND i just found this post.

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=787163

The automatic method will also work if the CSC for australia is not installed on your phone.

again, hope this helps

Recently I experienced lot of incompatibility issues which displays in the android market. Later I found out in most of my cases it caused because of the LCD resolution application which I have installed. For an instance I couldn't install Facebook official application from the market because I have changed my DPI setting to 130 but after restoring back to system's default (which is 160) and clearing data of the market application I was able to install it without having any issues and also I got lot of updates of various applications from the market.
