Just tell me where to sign :D
[Epic 4G General] poit:
CM9 will be released by the time LTE is official on Sprint.

And didn't they get Wimax working on the EVO 4G with CM7?
[Epic 4G General] AmericanJedi001:
I LOLed at this too!
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
They did but who is gonna put the time in on wimax for the epic now when wimax will be dead within a few months. Do it yourself or don't use cm7 pretty easy solutions.
[Epic 4G General] atharchian:
=) CM7 becomes official at the same time that Asurion replaced my OG Epic with an ET4G.
[Epic 4G General] Orbiting234:
Which is precisely why I will never run CM7 on my Epic. It's great that it is officially supported now but missing 4G is a complete deal killer for me. That's why I've been loving toadlife's excellent work on his CleanGB mod.
[Epic 4G General] austin420:
any secret for working that out?
[Epic 4G General] xopher.hunter:
Elaborate plz
[Epic 4G General] nikon120:
That bold segment of your statement is factually incorrect, according to the December 1st Sprint press release regarding WiMax.

The above is a snippet from that press release, but it goes on to say that part of that large payment is also considered a pre-payment for future LTE services.

I get where your comment was coming from, but your statement would likely give the wrong idea to Sprint customers that may read it.
[Epic 4G General] atharchian:
My OG epic (Which was a replacement from Asurion already) was having overheating issues. I called Asurion to let them know about the overheating. They were worried about it possibly causing me any harm, so they immediately transferred me to a supervisor, who then verified my details (address, account info, etc). She then said she would be shipping out another OG epic, at which point I asked about any other alternative device. She said I could pick either the HTC Evo or the Epic 2. I confirmed that it was indeed the ET4G by asking if it was the one without a qwerty, she said yes, and...now I've got an ET4G.

I Paid no deductible since Asurion covers your replaced device for 1 year.

APK/How to dowload

Can someone please tell me how to download the official CM7?
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
True it will be around for awhile but most CM7 users on the Epic won't be. They will upgrade to LTE phones. I thought the Devs said this is the reason it is not worth it to try and get it working.
[Epic 4G General] nikon120:
Yea I'm aware. That's why I stated that I get where he was coming from by making that statement.

Like I stated in my reply, it was factually incorrect or even misleading based off the information in Sprint's Dec 1st press release.

Even if it is possible... which I highly doubt, our phones are missing the new smr band to take advantage of the full capabilities of network vision.

They may have been the Epic Touch you read that for not the Epic. I couldn't find anything on Google about that, only the GSII.
[Epic 4G General] xboxfanj:
That was a rumor. Honestly we don't know, but even if it could, sprint probably wouldn't configure it for lte so we will use our upgrades.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
The Epic Touch is also missing the 800 SMR band since it has the same exact CDMA chipset as the Epic. So count that one off of your list too...
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Amazing news, congrats guys! I will finally be able to instal this on my mother and sister's phones for them... They've been jealous of stock on my nexus s for a while now

lol lte is already official in sprint in one area, posted on Engadget last night...
[Epic 4G General] insanity213:
Yep, don't count on any of these 2.5ghz WiMax phones ever working on LTE.

WiMax was a dead before it began technology for a multitude of reasons. I personally like the fact that the useless 4G toggle doesn't even exist in CM7 for Epic. If I could physically remove the WiMax Radio (w/o trashing the board) from the Epics and Evo that I have to deal with I would do it in a heartbeat.

LTE isn't official because Sprint doesn't have any LTE devices available. You might want to actually READ the post you are referring too. The article refers to a test cluster of sites in Kankakee IL.

"With the first LTE-capable devices on track for a mid-2012 arrival, Sprint claims that it's wrapped-up field tests and is poised for a rapid LTE deployment. "

If you're asking for a CM apk, I suggest you go to the biggest CM7 thread you can find, and read every single one of the 3,000+ posts there because you obviously have no idea what you're getting into.

I don't mean to sound harsh, but at least read something, anything before just flashing away. Know what the eff is going on before taking something like this on. If you simply start flashing away, I can almost promise you'll screw something up, beyond your repair (because you simply don't know what you're doing), and then flood the forums with bogus questions.

Please, for our sanity and yours, read up on what you're doing. Know what the difference between CM and CWM and BML vs MTD, TW vs AOSP, etc. You'll save all of us and yourself time in the end.
[Epic 4G General] codest3r:
Please - do some reading first:

[ROM] EpicMTD CM 7.2.0 RC0 and [INFO]What is EpicMTD, and what you need to know.

Then - after you're sure you know what you're getting yourself into (!!!) - make sure you read the standard disclaimer before following the instructions in the post on how to flash. Any issues - please use the correct forum and thread. And as always - search before posting. ;)
[Epic 4G General] tps70:
A little harsh, but worthy of a +1.

I was an early adopter of the CM7 ROM for our Epics, but haven't used it in quite a while due to the wifi issues that plagued it early on. I might just have to revisit it now that's it's official!

Congrats to all the devs involved for getting it done! :D
[Epic 4G General] ac16313:
They're not test clusters. "Sprint claims that its wrapped-up field test and is poised fr a rapid LTE deployment." Also that isn't the first place with Sprint LTE it's the second.
[Epic 4G General] poit:
According to the press release, they have installed and tested a single tower in Branchburg, N.J, and a cluster of towers in Kankakee Il. Quoting the press release:

Launched first multi-modal base station in Branchburg, N.J., and validated improved 3G data performance metrics, such as voice quality, drops and blocks and data speeds

Launched first cluster of cell sites in Kankakee, Ill. and completing field integration testing​

Call it what you will, but they are not yet offering LTE service to the public on these tower. Nor can you buy a device to use LTE from Sprint. They are still claiming they will begin selling LTE devices mid 2012.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Trying hard to bring this back on track... Anyone installed this yet and played with it much? I'm holding off on suggesting it to my family until I hear some positive news on reliability. I don't have an epic anymore to test on since I sold it for my Nexus S
[Epic 4G General] hayzooos:
Hit up the official thread over in development. All sorts of people there are stating it's a great build, but you have to know what the bugs are. If you're in a 4G area, that's a no-go and will be for quite some time. Check the OP and look at the bugs/known issues there.

Obviously know that if anything goes wrong, to get back to BML you'll need to Odin as it's not as simple as restoring a nandroid backup if something gets screwy.
[Epic 4G General] codest3r:
I've been running it since mid-November. Love it. If you don't need 4G I don't think you can find a better ROM.

CM7 was an alpha (aka KANG) until it became official this month now officially recognized as a "Release Candidate" (bypassed beta phase completely). It's pretty damn stable. I'm using it as a daily driver and with work calls.

There are 5 MTD ROM's now so you don't necessarily need to ODIN back to BML anymore...

MTD ROMs & Kernels

(thanks to jmuru for keeping that thread updated). :D
[Epic 4G General] XtaC318:
Its been reliable for some time now. The only issues as of yet are minor, read the bug list over in the dev forums. Its most definately a daily driver.

And as for WiMax, if you want it... start reverse engineering the drivers. Its closed source ;)
[Epic 4G General] HanMan5000:
It looks great. I really want to try it, but I can't if it doesn't have WiMax. There WiMax towers nearly wherever I go and I hate using 3G.
[Epic 4G General] saramon:
I got a 4g phone for 4g, and with sprints 3g networks really horrible I can't see making the switch to CM, I tried it awhile back and it had a lot of things I liked, but when you can't even watch a youtube video without wifi, or listen to Google Music, I can't see not having 4g... Could we start a petition for them to release drivers if they are not going to release ICS?

Because if public outcry can make them try to change their mind on ICS, maybe public outcry would get them to release the drivers... just a hunch...
[Epic 4G General] colo-natas:
Have to agree with you there. I'd like nothing more than to switch to CM7, but I will not give up 4G. I use too much data to pull it all over the 1x/3G radio.

This month's data usage:

3G: ~900MB

4G: ~12,800MB
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
I feel bad got those of you in 4g areas that can't use this... I'm not in a 4g area so it's no problem for me.

Thanks for the heads up on 4g, other than that it looks good. I'll try it out soon
[Epic 4G General] siirus09:
I almost never use 4G because of how much drain it is on the battery and how not very many areas have it. Im practically throwing $10 a month out the window, but Ill be damned if I dont say this is one of the best phones Ive ever had especially because of the physical keyboard.

Right now Im trying to decide if switching to CM is worth it or not, dont see any real reason why other than the overwhelming amount of customizable options. =/

What IP address are you referring? You simply go to htcdev website, here is the direct link: http://htcdev.com/bootloader

Follow the instructions. You might have to create a free account so you can get your unlock file via email, which you then have to flash to your phone to get it unlocked.

They did a pretty good job with the instructions. You have to use the command prompt on your pc to fastboot to your phone.

transfer the rom to the internal sd card (pulled the external card, plugged the phone in and turned on disk drive mode, then transferred the rom).

Then i flashed CWM...

Then the kernel (FYI after flashing the kernel on the next boot you will be stuck on the white HTC screen, this is normal)

pull the battery, then hold vol down plus power then choose recovery. CWM will come up, choose install zip from sdcard and choose your rom.. easy as that!

[Android General] Gropherman:
I've got this idea to save some cash but not entirely sure if it'll work.

Basically I'd like to turn a tablet into a VoIP phone via GVoice which means it would make sense to have a data only plan, but considering the USBConnect dongles aren't listed for droid compatibility, I was wondering if perhaps anyone here might have already done the same with success.

I'd guess my only concern here would be if nobody has done this (which I'm really doubting) is there a particular process to install the AT&T dongle or would the droid tab still just recognize it anyway as plug and play? Considering you don't get charged for data on the WiFi I'd just be constantly connected to that and only use 3G/4G when necessary.

Any answers or insights/suggestions are definitely welcome. :)

[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] legend221:
Good Morning All,

Just wanted to see if someone can clarify if I don't OTA and flash HONEYCOMB manually through CWM is it possible to go back to GINGERBREAD at a later date?

I'm hoping so, I've seen that notification for the system update and its driving me crazy.

Last thing we would want is to be stuck on Honeycomb.
[HTC Flyer, EVO View 4G] bsweetness:
You're not stuck on Honeycomb anymore even if you install the OTA Honeycomb update. HTC has officially added the View to the devices that can be unlocked, and globatron has released a procedure that allows you to rollback to Gingerbread from the OTA Honeycomb: Honeycomb to gingerbread downgrade for Official OTA. So, I'd say if you can go back to Gingerbread from stock, OTA Honeycomb, you should certainly be able to go back to Gingerbread if you install the S-OFF version of Honeycomb.
