If someone had told me I would not be able to play Plants vs Zombies on this phone, I probably wouldn't've touched it.

Having had it now, I think it's a small enough issue that I can let it slide, just because the phone is so amazing otherwise. It's still really, really, REALLY ticking me off, though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bluefire808:
Yes i absolutely would
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cordell12:
I dont think so, maybe if it were a lot cheaper than I paid :( I bought sprints last 2 "big" phones at launch, I dont think I will do that again either. I didnt learn the first time, LOL.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
I just bought it ten days ago Rooted first day with custom ROM + ICS theme. Phone is rock.solid stable. Not one LOS. Killer battery life going a full day +

The screen is gorgeous, and love how thin and lightweight this phone is.

There is no better device out there except maybe the Galaxy-Nexus.

Sprint Galaxy S2 w/ Calk's 1.5a + ICS 1.6
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dr_gibberish:
Just thought I would follow up on my own thread in case someone else finds it in the future. I bought the phone at Best Buy around 2.5 weeks ago. They were willing to match Amazon's $149 price at the time.

So far I have absolutely NO REGRETS about doing this. I rooted and was running basically stock + root, then when the EK02 update came out, I moved to that and then loaded Calkulin's ROM.

I have not had a single LOS issue with either the new (EK02) or old modem. I think this is something that is dependent on your specific phone or maybe your location. I used to have a similar issue on my Samsung Moment that was infuriating, but I have had zero problems on this phone.

The phone is wicked fast, and totally stable and the screen is amazing. Every person who even sees me using it comments on the screen. I am running this with every visual tweak maxed out (Live wallpaper, 3D transitions and app drawer in Launcherpro, etc) and the phone never lags for a second.

To be honest, I don't understand why this phone does not get more love from Sprint. I looked through all my Sunday paper ads from Best Buy, Radio Shack, etc and this phone never even appears. It seems to me that this is without question the best Android phone Sprint has right now. Why

are they not pushing it?

Anyhow, if you are thinking about getting the phone, I would not hesitate for a second. Especially with the new modem update, this phone is everything an Android power user could ask for...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Zorachus:
I agree, bought this phone on Black Friday and love it :) I am a phone whore too, and this is by far my favorite out of my recent phones the last 18 months;

EVO 4G

Nexus-S 4G

EVO-3D

This Galaxy SII just smokes them. Faster...smoother...beautiful screen...best battery life...razor thin.

Calk's 2.0.1a + ICS theme 1.9.2 + Rogue kernel 1.3
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] T.C.P:
hell yeah, we have cm, and miui NAO!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ppcpirate:
if I currently had the OG Epic, I would 100% for sure wait for the nexus galaxy or something that has a higher resolution display. the epic 4g is a good enough device that you can afford yourself some wait time. You aren't missing that much with the Epic Touch (except the fluidity of everything). I didn't have the choice to wait because i was coming from a loaned palm pre after my touch pro 2 died.

but that's not to say the epic touch isn't a great phone, it's the best phone i've ever owned but the resolution is holding it back especially in the web browser where tiny text is illegible, a minor annoyance none the less. besides LOS, some people have commented the phone to have a weaker signal. others have had issues with the GPS. personally, i've found the GPS to be slightly less accurate then some other phones i've played around with.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JohnCorleone:
The OG Epic is a very underrated phone. Excellent build quality, excellent screen, great physical keyboard, battery life...well I wont push it. I got a Nexus S 4g as a replacement when my Epic had issues. After the initial high of flashing the Miui and CM7 ROMs, I really started missing the quality of my OG Epic. That being said, I would absolutely buy the ET4G again. I see it as an upgrade in just about every area
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
In a new york minute
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dr_gibberish:
Working CM and MIUI?!!

Really? Where? I just looked through development and see an MIUI thread that that says it still has many things not working, and I don't see anything about a working CM.

Am I missing something?

EDIT: OK so I see the thread in General but not finding anything in development. Is a working ROM available to us regular folk? :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigfdaddy:
Nope....but I wont part with it either ....we got a love hate relation...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] abusedcloth:
Evo no more..

A week ago I just switched from an Evo 4G to the ET4G, I can't belive how underrated the press has made this phone. The specs on it are outstanding. Sure coming from an Evo they would be, but compair it to other devices and still very high end. Each carrier has slight differences with the GS II and I think Sprints version is by far the best (well until ATT just came out with the beefy SGSII Skyrocket). But for a Sprint upgrade that you have to use this month before those #%$@# continue to screw us, the ET4G is the best bet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Vegasrich:
love this phone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Poetik:
Yea, I just upgraded from the original Evo 4g to this phone and I can say that it's an upgrade in pretty much EVERY way possible. It's by far the best android phone that sprint has to offer right now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] catogtp:
I love mine and would buy it again. Been toying with the idea of buying a second one for my wife but her OG EPIC is just fine, sluggish, but works. Only thing that may make me want to upgrade is the new nexus, but once the touch gets an ICS port or OTA I wont care anymore.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bowser12:
No. Not if it had the LOS issues and CIQ loaded.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jess813:
Yes hands down Hell Yeah!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mtvruinedyou:
But now that CIQ has been removed in EK12 and LoS is fixed.. Yeah, I lied. I would buy it again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Craig7220:
I came from a droidx on Verizon to this touch. I would get the touch again. Heck I just got one for MY wife too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mindgrind:
I came to the e4gt from the sholes droid. I would buy again over the EVO, which was the other phone I personally was looking at.

The e4gt developer community has been producing quality ROMS since I bought the phone and are great with support.

I'd buy again.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xenokc:
I finally got the ET update and am now pleased. I didn't have the LOS issue but 3G was slow before and now much better, especially in weak signal. 4G has always been pretty good and still is.

Came from an EVO. ET is far better as an 'Android device' but EVO was better at handling weak signals for data, until the ET update. Am now good with ET, but is disappointing Samsung took this long to get the fix out.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] bigfdaddy:
Now that the l.o.s and the game issue know fixed i will recant my previous statement n would buy again for magical price of a penny like i did this one...:-)

[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Anyone know which app to freeze to prevent the Rezound from automatically triggering the prompt to load Verizon Media Manager on connect to PC?

There used to be a way to do it through a dial-in sequence on the Incredible; that doesn't work on the Rezound.
[HTC Rezound] AtLemacks:
Doesn't pop up on mine. Are you talking about their website on your computer screen, or the app on your phone? In settings you can change how the phone reacts when connecting to your PC.
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
I know that. When I connect I get an immediate prompt to download Verizon's Media Manager software, and the web page pops up in a browser (or additional tab if the browser is already open). On the Incredible, there was an *.iso file in the system root that could be de-activated by dialing a sequence of numbers and getting a feature menu which would de-activate CD-ROM. That menu is missing from the Rezound, so something else is triggering the pop-up.

There might be an *.iso file somewhere in there, but I am hesitant to delete or write anything to the ROM. Last time I did that I had to do a factory reset. I'm hoping it's an apk that can be frozen by Titanium during temporary root.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
you did check off to connect via "USB Debugging Mode" in settings right?...

i do it that way & when i connect to my PC the only thing it does will bring up the prompt on the phone itself asking if i want to do "charge only" or "hard drive".
[HTC Rezound] hgoldner:
Usually keep USB debugging ON, not off, but even setting it to off produces the prompt when I connect. It appears to "see" CD-ROM which would suggest that there *is* an *.iso file somewhere. Guess I'll have to go back into temporary root and see what's in there.
[HTC Rezound] voxigenboy:
yeah when i go to 'windows explorer' after the phone's connected, it shows that 'CD-ROM', as well as both the drives from the phone itself & then the sd card.

oh wait... perhaps it's because i have "autorun" in windows disabled. anytime i pop in anything, nothing happens. i just go into explorer and manually open things. so my guess is that it's your PC's autorun feature.

i believe once you have the phone connected, go into windows explorer and right-click on the 'CD-ROM' listing, there should be an option somewhere to "autoplay/autorun" & you can disable it.

there's a way to disable autoplay/autorun completely in windows & there's more info on that here:

It has never popped up for me. In any case, what if you just Freeze that app using TB? (I think I froze that one on my last trip into Temp Root.)

[Galaxy S II General] Intratech:
Personally I'd restrict new members to no posting for a week so they can spend some time reading or something before they post.
[Galaxy S II General] jonny68:
Totally agree, when new members register in the actual registration process it should state that they need to read the forum first to see if they can find the answers to their questions which most likely they can, and after a week their account is enabled so they can then post.

Other than that we're stuck with daily threads full of the same duplicate questions:confused:

Wondering which ones you guys use on X2.

I want to be able to play some 720P videos streamed from my NAS device.

I tried MX player (just ok), so far, dice player appears to be working well, but wondering what else is out there.

Thanks.

[Motorola Droid X2] hpark21:
Issue with stock:

Many videos will play without audio.

No stream play capability = must copy files internally from my NAS server.

I am currently using MX video player. Works pretty well.

Just wondering what people are using.

I use BSPlayer lite

https://market.android.com/details?id=com.bsplayer.bspandroid.free&hl=en

Supports mkv, subtitles, hardware acceleration and has built in samba support for streaming files over network.

Haven't tried it on my X2 since I don't watch videos on it but works great on Xoom.
[Motorola Droid X2] hpark21:
I noticed that mx player can NOT do hardware decode over SMB network stream.

Once I move the file locally, it plays fine.

No...haven't had any trouble losing root
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
This is not a port...this is an infuse rom...so everything should be fine root wise
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jmatt78:
As many people as u got testing might as well release it and just do maintenance updates D
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
You flash it yet?

Yea... I see a few problems for me at least... It's completely decked out for at&t, but im on rogers -.-

And for that su thing, it's the older version, and it doesn't let me update the binary... what does that binary do? On the older version of superuser with the 3 tabs, it doesn't let me update the binary, so i updated it wiht market and it updated no problem, but what does the binary even do?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Yea...ima get rid of the att bloat and install newest version of su...on my to do list
[Samsung Infuse 4G] joeym11:

did you not theme the phone though?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Kevinr678:
Hey dman, don't have time to test right now personally, but I was wondering if you could leave Angry Birds, The office program, and Media Hub on the ROM? Or if anyone has the originals to upload at some point, I'd be just as happy :D Hard to find a custom that keeps those few lol. I'm probably being a jerk by asking now that I think about it, so if I am, I apologize in advance.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] joeym11:
If he doesn't i can help you get them in without having to install them?

Just take the apks from system>app out of a a rom that you have that has them, zip them with 7zip, and you can flash it.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Yes...more system apps will be themed down the line...still beta testing

MMS works

Bluetooth works

GPS works

But the problems i see...

SMS is showing up in my call log on my phone, which is why i liked infused and doctorz

when i go to wireless and networks, there is a setting missing for me, and it's the one for gps that allows you to turn on gps and allow sensor aiding whatever... i had it all the time before...

I have a network that is permanently remembered and it's attwifi... guessing that's an at&t thing?

Seems it's very set on at&t because even when i pressed contacts from the phone app, it said launching at&t contacts app or something?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] dman3285:
Yea..that's because I haven't removed the bloat yet...and Ill remove the sms from call log also...thanks man

It is the best rom i have seen and used for sure... and it's still beta

Not sure if it's a bug or my phone/computer, but i went to go into usb mode and it didn't do anything for over a minute, so i unplugged, so i unplugged and plugged back in, then all of a sudden the usb picuture turned purple and it still took a long time to connect

And all my icons kinda half disappeared... they all say loading

Every time when I plug my A500 for recharging, after the power button turned to white (or a kind of light blue...) indicating the device is fully charged, when I take a look at the battery stat, it shows "99%".

So, I noticed I only got "100%" when I boot the device while charging...

Is that common? The boot time drains 1% of battery till start the system???
