Well SOPA isnt even passed so SOPA isnt the one to blame. the FED shut down megaupload without it, (as mentioned a thousand times). anyways i feel that XDA developers have relied pretty heavily on megaupload for ROMS, kernels and various files. so now when you go to some random rom, kernel or guide, what are you supposed to do when their files are linked to megaupload? yea this whole thing sucks, thats for sure:(

[General Topics] Cabe24i:
Even with SOPA down and PIPA on the back burner, XDA could easily be shut down if patent/copyright holders wanted to. In my research through the various EULAs, ACTA, DMCA and some of the current laws trying to be passed here in the states (and various trade agreements across the world) loopholes are being tightened and companies are starting to be forced to act to keep their IP valid.

Look at the patent wars between Apple & Samsung - according to some of the filings, ROMs and Kernels that contain functionality that are being contested could be viewed as illegal on this site and others.

It's a sad world we live in these days in regards to these types of information lock down, it seems even pure AOSP could be a violation of some IP law somewhere depending on signed treaties and/or loose interpretation of existing laws.

Will it happen? Unlikely, at least right now, but as these laws get passed and treaties get enacted rules here will probably need to be tightened in order to stay in compliance.

It sucks, the only way to stop this from happening is to be be active in voicing your opinion. Whether its calling up your senator, parliament or voting with your cash. :/

How to port ClockWorkMod Recovery on Galaxy Player 4.0?

I already found about "Porting Clockwork Recovery to New Devices"

But the posy said guide will not work for Samsung phones which use an initramfs.

Galaxy Player 4.0 is use an initramfs.

So, l tried to search, but i cannot find tips or guide about porting cwm on SGP

Are there any tips or guide or tutorial about porting cwm on SGP?

(or Galaxy S i9000,it also using intiramfs right?)

If there any tips or guide or tutorial about porting cwm on SGP

Could you share?

First, I'd like to thank zelendel for his final, and correct answer in the locked Can SOPA shutdown XDA? thread. The source of the modified ROM images is copyrighted material.

Both XDA-Developers and myself (Nolan Web Development) are listed on the sopastrike.com website as being confirmed participants in the protest against both SOPA and PIPA on January 18th. There is a link now to other 75,000 unconfirmed participants.

Both houses of Congress have now indefinitely suspended consideration of those bills as they were being proposed. That does not mean that they are not feverishly trying to rewrite them and come up with other solutions that won't enrage most of the public. Even without them the Digital Millennium Copyright Act and the ICE Act provide a lot of muscle.

Haven't heard of ICE? It's a doozy. It lets the Department of Homeland Security act as an enforcement arm of the entertainment industry and does so with no warnings, no hearings... everything is sealed and protected as a "national security interest." A defendant's lawyer's will not be able to learn a single thing about what they have done to someone who has been targeted. Very scary. It's along the lines of the new "indefinite detainment without a hearing or trial" thing the government is doing now.

Stay vigilant and call your government representatives, every day if you have to, when new things like these come along.

Hey everyone,

Just wondering if people have an idea of how long they'll stay with there Epic? I don't think I've ever loved a phone as much as I love this one but I'm sure I'll be tempted away by something new this summer when my renewal credit is up.

What about you?
[Epic 4G General] ÜBER™:
Whenever quadcore lte phones roll out ill be upgrading ;)..... I actually have a two year upgrade though its only been a year which was very tempting but I can wait
[Epic 4G General] mouseglider:

[Epic 4G General] austin420:
I'm ready. Promotion.

I'm eligible now. Just waiting for something good.
[Epic 4G General] iil:
This phone has had such great staying power so far..it does just a little bit of everything just good enough that i'm not tempted to change one bit yet. The only reason for me to change is improved hardware/design plus I think I'm ready to ditch the KB.
[Epic 4G General] xTmDarren:
Samsung Note LTE for sprint or a quadcore.. whichever I fall in love with first!

I think I can wait another year for my next phone. Hopefully we'll have LTE here and there will be a decent LTE phone for sprint.

I am still getting a Google phone... like I said before, I don't want to be pissed off by samsung's lack if updates, closed source ROM, or HTCs locked bootloaders. I would actually like a Google phone on stock... I don't care if there is 65 core... single core is fast enough and dual core is amazing. Higher on a mobile phone is just stupid until software advances.
[Epic 4G General] rygran87:
The Epic its the first phone that I've had for more than six months and not thought " I REALLY want a new phone!" It's been almost a year and a half now. I might upgrade to the G Nex if/ when out comes to Sprint or a quad core lte...

I see little reason to upgrade to something else until LTE is deployed in my area now that CM9 is on the horizon.

When I get my upgrade in a year

Why isn't there a poll option for when you're upgrade eligible? I know that I came in on the Epic fairly late so I'll still be trolling these forums when I imagine most of you will be gone. I still have a little more than another year with this phone, not like that's a bad thing. It's been good to be especially with what I've done to it.
[Epic 4G General] digiblur:
When Sprint comes out with a nice fast android with a keyboard. Keyboard is absolute requirement. I would take a slower phone with a keyboard versus a faster one without. I can care less how thin the phone is since I don't wear skinny jeans like the rest of the freaks that want paper thin phones.

The phone also has to support LTE, 800SMR band, and 1xAdvanced. And by god it better roam on the PCS band!!!!damn you Samsung!!!!!!

[Epic 4G General] iil:
I suppose you would fall under the over 1 year camp option. I was really just curious about time-frames and a 'upgrade eligible' would not be specific enough...

I tried to cover most situations but I did miss was the 'ready - just waiting for the right phone' option and XDA will not let you change polls. I think I could easily last one more year with the Epic is the next generation is not here till then but am really hoping for something nice by August. I'm intrigued by the nexus but I feel another model/generation may be on the radar around that point.
[Epic 4G General] SadieNibblesworth:
When a better hardware phone with a keyboard comes out, I will upgrade.

Currently, I am off contract and Sprint calls every week offering to suck my &^%$ in exchange for me entering into a contract again...eventually I will take them up on that.

[Epic 4G General] Muckrak3r:
I'm waiting for the SG3 - it may be later this year, so I recently ordered a refurb epic to replace my current one which is rebooting on me 5-7 times per day now.

*If* the SG3 has improved battery life, as that's going to be my demand for my next phone. The epic Burns through battery power like no other. And nothing in this current batch of phones today does much better. Any other improvements in performance the SG3 has will just be a bonus.

[Epic 4G General] DCRocks:
I get my update in feb, but I am going to wait for a phone with the following:

Samsung

Hardware keyboard

4G & LTE

Quad-core

Removable SD card

I would be hard pressed to upgrade to a phone without these, but may breakdown and get the SG3 if nothing comes out by the time it is released.

Even then, my Epic will hang around, as it will replace the Saamsung Moment currently on one of my extra lines.

[Epic 4G General] Dronak:
Well, I'm not eligible for a phone upgrade until the fall, so it'll have to last at least that long (say about 9 months). Beyond that, it kind of depends on what phones are available and how my Epic's working at that point. If the phone's working well and still doing what I want/need, I'm inclined to hold on to it for longer. But we'll see -- I will want an LTE phone and I hate how long it takes to get Android updates.

Soon as I switch to Verizon.. I'm looking at galaxy nexus on lte.. in all honesty tho xda devs have kept me on the epic longer than I thought. But sprint service is okay in metro Detroit, but lack of 4g is really troubling. Not worried about the data limit with Verizon because at home and campus im on WiFi. Also the galaxy nexus is $100 at Amazon. Add my employee discount and I'm pretty much looking at the same price im paying now with Sprint for a 5 phone family plan. Granted less minutes and capped data. But I'll take it!

[Epic 4G General] mrleprechaunboy:

As long as there is development for the Epic 4G, I'm sticking with it.

If all the devs suddenly went to another platform, I'd use the phone "until the wheels fall off."
[Epic 4G General] threedfreek:
Sprint sux in Lansing, MI... speeds are mostly 150k or less... I moved to sprint from ATT 3G with consistent 800k - 1.6mb speeds... when I call them they tell me it's the phone... then I tell them that I have three phones with sprint delivering the same speeds... then they told me I was in a broken area... When I first signed up I was getting as good as ATT then it quit right around the time that Alltel and Verizon teamed up... I assumed that sprint lost their towers in the deal and I was the beneficiary of the madness... they don't want to talk to me about it now...

Oh yeah... love my phone... hate my service! Will change companies once contract is completed.

[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] PurpleMelbourne:
From what I understand when you double the frequency, you quadruple the power consumption. Thats when the colts stay the same.

But what about:

800Mhz @ 1000mv

vs

1600 Mhz @ 1350mv

Can someone tell me the formula? Is that more like 7.29 times power consumption instead of 4? Are my sums below on the right track?

((1600÷800)×1.35)^2=7.29 times power consumption

But when you remember it takes half the time to do a calculation then I guess you have it again to be only 3.65 times. And CPU will always consume some power anyway...

Theoretically this sounds like turning on second core preferred to clocking up frequency would save a lot of power. But maybe CPU power consumption always irrelevant compared to screen consumption :-P
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MatanZ:
Why square the frequency?

The power draw is proportional to the frequency, and to the square of the voltage.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bud.de:
If you double the voltage, the power consumed is:

P = U^2 / R

Disregarding side-effects , the resistance stays the same .

It's hard to know what's causing it but there is definitely a lot of freezes in the otherwise butters smooth animations. If I'm downloading torrent in the background, the device become unusable and applications (mainly the launcher) stop responding.

Every media take much to long to load,

I also suspect big movie files to suffer from that.

Transferring files on and from a computer is a pain and often the tablet simply stop responding.

In my opinion the storage speed is the bottleneck of the Prime performance wise. It s like using a computer with a slow ass HDD versus a one with a super fast SSD.
