[Epic 4G General] algorhythm:
Premium Data (required for this device) - $10.00

We require this add-on for phones made to deliver a superior wireless experience including Web, email, video and social networking.

Additional details:

The Premium Data add-on charge is required for smartphones.

Sprint smartphones currently are: Android, BlackBerry, Palm, Instinct and Windows Mobile phones.

On average, smartphone users use 10 times more data than customers with basic or feature phones. With this charge, Smartphone customers will continue to receive unlimited data and experience Sprint’s simplified services and rates, being able to take advantage of a rich data experience while on the Sprint network.

If you would like an unlimited data plan, for a lower rate, and avoid this charge, you may want to check out some of our feature phones which do not require the $10 Premium Data add-on charge.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Yeah, funny my Palm Pre didn't require that fee and they didn't start the fee until 4G phones came and then only applied to 4G phones until the complaints of no 4G came in...I'm just sayin'.....lol.
[Epic 4G General] algorhythm:
We all know it WAS a 4G fee, but it is not one any longer.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
I know...just adding how Ludicrous Sprint was with their back-peddling. Was commenting on the wording of the contract not you specifically.
[Epic 4G General] mattykinsx:
Well obviously they aren't the best carrier for your area. If your service isn't doing what you need it to do you might need to consider changing carriers.
[Epic 4G General] SweetBearCub:
I get that data speeds are a function of location, terrain, weather, etc.

But for those complaining about slow speeds, how can you explain these results, taken from downtown San Francisco?

3G (20 Tests Average): 166.595 kB/s Down, 104.335 kB/s Up, 125.6ms Ping

Tests done sequentially at about 3:45pm, Downtown San Francisco, Indoors, -65 dBm Signal

4G (20 Tests Average): 475.665 kB/s Down, 173.79 kB/s Up, 81.75ms Ping

Tests done sequentially at about 12:30pm, Downtown San Francisco, Outdoors, 2 Bars Signal, Unknown dBm

For what I pay, these speeds are great. So take heart - Sprint is not stiffing you. It really could be your location!
[Epic 4G General] dtugg:
I was about to say that those speeds are crap...then I noticed that you had it in it kB/s rather than kbps like it usually is shown.

Anyway I doubt that anyone says that's speeds are crap everywhere. I get speeds similar to you at home (Oahu, HI). 4G is a little faster and ping is like twice as slow (I attribute that to being in the middle of the ocean).

I am visiting my mom in Southern AZ and speeds are crap. 300kbps if I am lucky.
[Epic 4G General] juliocmorales93:
Speeds here in Texas are crazy, first when I was in school, which has an open campus, 4G would only get like 1 Mb/s and would drop out whenever I moved more than 5 feet. Now I'm on the highway going 60 or so and 4G has 3 bars. At home I get 1 bar, 2 if I'm lucky. I have to say I'm pretty happy pulling 9 Mb/s though at home, latency really does suck though, can't play onlive well enough. The crazy thing though was that I went to visit my sister in Lockhart and got 5 Mb/s on 3G on 3 bars, that has to prove that location is a big factor in the speeds you get. Also I'm pretty happy that they made 4G much better, but it blows that I have Clear as an ISP and now I'm being throttled to .6 Mb/s, at home, receiving the same 4G as my epic that gets 9 Mb/s. Even when not throttled the most I usually pull is 5 Mb/s. Also for some reason 4G also works great and keeps a constant connection in the south while on the highway, as soon as I reach an urban area everything drops, even 3G, so like I said speeds here in Texas are crazy.
[Epic 4G General] ike313:
Terrible service in Detroit, mi. No 4g. 3g suck balls! Can't watch a 30sec YouTube video to save my life. Takes a whole hour to download a 2mb game from the market. I'm better off going with metro pcs. If it wasn't for that early termination fee. I would cancel this crappy contract so fast.

Update download speeds are 83kbps and upload speeds are 118kbps.. wtf 3g my ass!
[Epic 4G General] il buono:
Tell me about it. I'm lucky if I even get that much. Can't say much about 4G since it's not even in AZ :mad: Oh well I've gotten used to it.
[Epic 4G General] b16flybye:
If we're being charged extra for 4g, aka, something I absolutely never use, then that really sucks. icing on the bull****.
[Epic 4G General] txtmikhail:
lol.. but now all high-end phones come with 4g so if u dont have 4g in your area than thats one feature from that phone we have to live without.. so i have 3 lines on my account.. $10 x3=30 monthly $30x24months =$720 for 2 yrs.. im paying sprint for some crappy 3g.. NO 4g.that money could be going to Verizon which as better coverage. im might be going to Verizon after my contract up..
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
This. Wish they got out some 4g at least :(
[Epic 4G General] resetreflectt:
I get terrible speeds here in the Houston area. I can't really take advantage of Google Music as much considering it always stops due to slow loading. I don't even bother with youtube videos either. 4G is decent though, it just drops a lot.
[Epic 4G General] quick99si:
You're not really paying $10/phone/mo for 4G, it's more of a fee to offset the never-before-anticipated increase in data usage. That's the company line at least and it's a matter that has been discussed to death already. The HTC Touch Pro 2 is the best phone exempt from this fee (aside from that green phone they were trying to push).

The reason I'm posting is to remind you that they also charge tax on the premium data fee... which brings it closer to $800. Damn, people buy cars for $800.
[Epic 4G General] il buono:
Yup. I could accept Tucson not getting any 4G love, but overlooking Phoenix...now that is unbelievable. All I know is that we better be one of the first to get LTE :D

Sent from my E4GT
[Epic 4G General] :
I was just searching random topics here... anyways T-Mobile has great 4g in Tucson. If you were near your contract end I would look into it.
[Epic 4G General] darksideauto:
Last time i checked tmo 4g wasn't legit 4g its hsupa+ or something. Not lte or wimax. Either way if it works well go for it.

[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
4G isn't hardware or methods used. Its certain speed capabilities.
[Epic 4G General] caileb:
Not sure about Tucson - but I live in downtown Phoenix. I get crap speeds with Sprints 3G - usually ~0.7 Mbps. T-Mobile may not be "true 4G", but HSPA+ gives a pretty consistent 7 - 15 Mbps. Unless you're downloading huge torrents all the time, anything more is overkill (IMO)
[Epic 4G General] selfinfliction:
i think it works pretty decent here in knoxville now that 4g is turned on in about 50% of the places. It's still not on their coverage map, but it does work... 3g as you said is a bit slow compared to my verizon work phone, but at least calling coverage exists.
[Epic 4G General] latinoboi30:
I agree , when I first got my Epic 4g at launch , the sprint associate also told me that there was a 10 dollar for for 4g service. Then I couldn't even get on 4g in my area .
[Epic 4G General] latinoboi30:
I'm in Houston as well and 4g sux unless your down in the Med center.
[Epic 4G General] ksmullins88:
So is sprint going to phase out wimax and just opt for LTE? I'm gonna be pissed if that's the case.. I've not even gotten to use it really, couple times downtown detroit and a few in chicago and grand rapids and flint.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Wow, you are really worried about this...lol! Clearwire's contract runs until the end of 2013. I bet they won't just flick the off switch then either. Sprint will support at least until then.
[Epic 4G General] ksmullins88:
Ahha I am just wondering because my dads trying to get a new phone and I don't want him to get one that has outdated 4g technology already. But thanks again kenny lol. ^_^
[Epic 4G General] flastnoles11:
Pretty sure their contract with clearwire (or whatever the companys name is) isn't up until 2014 so I don't expect them to do away with it until then
[Epic 4G General] A_Flying_Fox:
Its definitely your location that determines speed (but ima go ahead and blame it more on congestion).

For example, while I was in florida I had 5 bars of 3g, no 4g, but I was getting a CONSTANT 1-3mbps. Here at home in nyc I get around 1mbps on 3g, but its irrelevant since I'm under a nice comfty 4g quilt :3

But still, nyc having slower 3g than Tampa is an obvious effect of population
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Ping has noticably improved to consistently under 100, at least on 4G. I give Sprint credit for that. Too bad the signal is weak in my living space and I fall back on Wifi, but anyway...
[Epic 4G General] ksmullins88:
Soo after installing the 13337 prl my service is the fastest its ever been,, I can actually use my phone now..

I believe it forces roam on verizon :-X but its awesome. Just letting y'all know
[Epic 4G General] jnadke:
It was 2013, but shortly after the Network Vision announcement the investors were furious. Sprint backpedeled a tad and threw Clearwire some money.

We have WiMax through 2015.

http://finance.yahoo.com/news/Sprint-Clearwire-Extend-zacks-2357455697.html

This money also hinges on WiMax expanding, so coverage should increase!

Clearwire, being a small company, should be able to get more bang for the buck.

Makes sense, because phones take a while to develop. There are still WiMax phones in the pipeline. We probably won't see any LTE phones until Oct-Nov timeframe. So people that upgrade with the final generation WiMax phones will be on contract for quite some time.
[Epic 4G General] cameljock:
I agree. I live near a tower and I still cant get 4g or decent 3G speeds over 1.5 megs at all.

[Epic 4G General] sureshot007:
I've been frustrated by my slow 3g speeds. Generally, I'll see 200-300kbps, occasionally peaking up to 700kbps. I just spent the last hour changing modems and the results on all the modems were roughly the same. Those who have great speeds, what modem/rom are you using?
[Epic 4G General] zman519:
You must me a newer sprint costumer. because in Oct 2010 when i got my Epic. The Fee was listed AS 4G FEE! They changed the name on the fee because of all us NON 4G people *****ing about it.
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
Yes. It still is a 4g fee. It was listed as premium 4g data when I got my epic.
[Epic 4G General] Vizzo:
Buahahahaha!
[Epic 4G General] Vizzo:
Moor!
[Epic 4G General] MДЯCЦSДИT:
What tweaks are you using and where is that (actual location state/city)
[Epic 4G General] rygran87:
Did not mean to thank ( not that you don't deserve every Thanks you get). It isn't a 4g fee anymore because all us non 4g customers were calling and *****ing about how nearly a year later there was no 4g. Now it's Premium Data which can

be charged on any new activation of a smart phone. I know because I have Moment on my plan getting charged the $10

fee.
[Epic 4G General] quik99:
Just for the record i'm as angry as anyone about this 4g fee and it was bs. But he is right its not just 4g bs anymore its just standard data if you have a smartphone now. I put a old Optimus S on my sons line of my account and sprint forced me to put the premium data on and pay $10 even tho my wife has a optimus s that does not have premium data charge because its on for 2 years
[Epic 4G General] k0nane:
All carriers have bad areas. Sprint may have a few more, but it's got good ones, too. The worst I see around here is 450ish, I get 1mbit at home, and 4G downtown. 3G is HORRIBLE (Google Music tends to be a stretch) in my parents' neck of the woods, but there's 4G on a major corridor there too. I manage to suck up several GB a month. I can't complain. Network Vision incoming!
[Epic 4G General] caileb:
Behold my Premium Data:

Guess the entirety of downtown Phoenix is one of those "horrid" dead spots with slow 3G and no 4G
[Epic 4G General] andsamp:
For me 3g is horrible at home (unusable) and 4g is what 3g used to be.(1Mbit) 4g is not good for streaming unless you are standing still and outside. Plus it sucks down the battery. On el30 gleangb mtd. Any advice or experience with which modem to use?

Was on srf 1.2 genocide 2 ef02 for ages before I finally tried out cm9 and then settled on gleangb.
[Epic 4G General] andsamp:
That's about triple the speed I get on 3g here in colorado. Lol
[Epic 4G General] b16flybye:
Sprint should splurge and get better towers for us 3g users, oh wait, we'll all have to make the jump to LTE to get better service. That's their plan.
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
I concur.

[Epic 4G General] RealTic:
This is stupid, its obviously because your in a bad service area, it happens to EVERYONE, sprint can't place a tower in your back yard, im sorry, thats life.

Sprint is a damn fine carrier, they gave me a phone when my credit was horrible and their monthly plans are way cheaper compared to verizon and at&t, I must say im very glad to be a sprint customer.

In some areas I have full bars and crappy 3g speeds, in some areas I have 1 bar with superior 3g speeds, its all about location, and its the same way for every damn carrier.

there are always pay as you go phones, im sure wal-mart has a $10.00 phone to meet your needs....
[Epic 4G General] ProDriver77:
I find it's mostly a location problem for me. However, my wife & son's LG Optimus S's seem to hold a more stable data connection.

I sit in somewhat of a "valley" and my 3G speeds are slower at times than a dial-up modem. 4G is unusuable in the house, but outside works great.

If I drive 5 minutes from here, both 3G & 4G speeds work fine.

Only place I'm unhappy is when I'm working in Williamsport, PA area. They're still on 1xRTT up there, and my phone is completely worthless except for voice & text messaging unless I can find a Wifi hotspot (usually McDonald's at Lycoming Valley Mall or Starbucks in Downtown Williamsport).

They're still the best phones & best value for the money in my opinion. Their Customer Finance Department has also really worked well with me to get my account "caught up" while working with some tight financial constraints.

So, I'll be sticking with them for the time being.
[Epic 4G General] saramon:
Sprint should upgrade their 3g network, instead of spend 14 billion dollars on iPhones. I don't get it personally, ATT has at least 1mb 3g speeds (even more so on the iPhone 4s, as they have a better antenna), you go to Sprint, you are luckly to get past .5mb...

Sprint officially sucks on 3g, and 4g is worthless pretty much unless you are like right by the tower. I am less then a mile away from mine, and I can barely get 4g indoors...
[Epic 4G General] andsamp:
The area does matter, but I'm talking about areas that were previously better just last year. The service is degraded on the whole. Unlimited data doesn't matter a lick if you have a hard time pulling up a web page. Lucky for me 4g works sometimes(when I'm not moving or inside), albeit at speeds that used to be 3g speeds. My Family on the other hand don't have 4g devices. We got an airave for home which helps. It just sucks I have to use bandwidth to prop up sprints service.

Wow....I sound super negative. Sorry bout that:D

Sprint doesn't give out credits any more in my experience...they gotta pay for the subsidized iphone:(

So I use the email client with my Comcast email account and everything works ok expect one thing. Maybe I am spoiled from HTC with there email app but I used to be able to select one email to delete. Then I would get an option to mass select all my other emails at once so I wouldn't have to check every single one at a time.

I don't see this option in ICS. I have to be missing it as I can't see this as an option they forgot to put in.

I have read several threads, but I didn't find a complete guide for installing FRX 07.1 (i know it is similar to FRX06, I read that as well)

1. Do I have to format the SD card before I extract the FRX file to the SD card?

(I didn't format my SD card and just extract every file from the FRX 07, and when I tried to install/ run the haret.exe, it showed a screen with

"Launch a script file, Default path is the same where the executable lives

then Box "Default.txt" --> (a button) "run"

I hit run and it said "Can not open script file\storage card \ default.txt

Because I can't post on the developer's forum (For their rule of posting less than 10), and i have to ask the other question here. But before I begin, I want to let people who are interested to know that I have solved my own problem

ABout installing the FRX 07, simply follow what it is on Froyo FRX07's page, and extract all of the file, and also, cut and past the ,txt file from the folder named "startup" from the bundle of FRX07 and past it to the root of the sd card in my case (Or you can copy it to anywhere you want to install the FRX07
