I wouldn't hold your breathe for anything. FF18 could drop in five minutes. Sprint could go bankrupt tomorrow. Aliens could invade the planet. Red Dawn could become a prophecy. Apple could win the lawsuit. We might all be using Microsoft phones by the end of the year.

I'm quoting this so when it gets released we can all look back upon this statement :rolleyes:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Big Boy Laroux:
I know i'm relatively new here, post-wise (but i have been following this thread for 100s of pages), but i'm really confused as to why everyone seems hell-bent on proving people's statements false...

"You said this" "You said that" "i'm going to hold you to that statement" etc. etc.

If the people making claims were coming back on here claiming they are right, and everyone sucks for not being them, I could understand it. But I haven't seen that. These people are just relaying what they heard.

I'd hate to see you guys at a restaurant when they say it will be a 30 minute wait and it ends up being 35. Or heaven forbid you call a helpdesk and the wait is longer than the 1 minute they told you it would be.

Meaning we'd be able to switch easily between devices like AT&T?

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:39 PM ----------

Whatever floats your boat.

My original comment wasn't going anywhere so you could always look back on it anytime you wanted. But if it helps you up your post count by quoting me then more power to ya. ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
No, meaning you can switch between sprint lte devices by swapping sim cards. The devices are still locked to sprint only.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Right lol that's what I meant, you can switch easily between Sprint devices without having to go swap ESNs. Which they can do on AT&T because of SIM cards.

Sorry I worded that sort of wonky.

The thing about Microsoft phones may be true, tomorrow Windows phone 8 preview

This thread has been fun but hopefully it wont last much longer. While i have no doubt this phone will be EOL shortly I have a hard time believing that Samsung thinks its done and isn't working to clean up the final bugs before release. If all of the things that work properly in EL29 do not work in ICS release people will not be happy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tailsthecat3:
Seems that some users are still unclear. The epic touch will never support lte frequencies regardless of the 800/1900mhz capabilities of the device. No hate, just saying.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jamesey:
I'm ok with it either way, but it is the #1 selling phone so i'd be shocked if they aren't on board with it again. yes, it's a big investment, but explain the new insurance tiers if it's not to prepare for the iphone.

I'm also willing to bet the double your data deals by verizon for any LTE phone will get nixed right before the iphone lte comes out. Why? cause the sheep always pay more :)

---------- Post added at 08:31 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:28 PM ----------

Korey make up your mind you said several months ago simless cards. At the end of the day everyone saves and it's better for us if all CDMA phones are built the same whether for verizon or sprint ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Again I'm really not well informed on Sprint's iPhone arrangement because I've avoided it altogether, but isn't the iPhone covered by AppleCare not TEP through Assurion? Sorry I should also add that I'm not overly familiar with TEP because I don't mess with it either but I thought the tiered program was just to cover the increased cost of the new smart phones (other than iPhone).

Agreed on the Verizon thing though. I myself am a lemur, not a sheep. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
Just read the post below. Unless you are trying to say the Sprint Customer Support is wrong.....it would be a first. ;)

Customer: Do you know if they are updating it to 4g or 4g LTE?

Tammy C: It is 4G LTE

Customer: My understanding is that I won't be able to take advantage of that with my current phone (samsung galaxy s II touch) because it doesn't support LTE. Is that correct?

Tammy C: Please let me check this for you.

Tammy C: Thank you for waiting.

Tammy C: I have discussed the case with my supervisor and yes, your phone (samsung galaxy s II touch) will work with it.

Tammy C: Is there anything else I may assist you with?

Customer: So, it DOES have the proper Antennas to receive the LTE signal?

Tammy C: Yes.

Tammy C: Is there anything else I may assist you with?

Customer: that is all. Thank you!

Tammy C: You are most welcome.

And in other news. I was looking at Amazon Wireless Best Sellers list. The EPIC TOUCH was the second highest Sprint phone. Crazy. I don't think it is going anywhere for a while. There are to many markets with no Sprint LTE. Because of this, Sprint isn't going to "hold" the update. The update is just taking its own sweet time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuc:
KC with the haymaker.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
Not necessarily. Calk said ff11 will be an ota and lingering bugs will be fixed in a subsequent build. FF11 could still be an ota and ff18+ could be the subsequent build. Don't forget, when ek02 dropped there were el rdfs being posted.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] cas8180:
My ex girlfriend was a Manager at Sprint and I tended to be more knowledgeable than most people that worked there. In fact they offered me a job several times.

It is true, not possible with this phone's hardware. I will be upgrading to a GS4 when that comes out in a year. By then hopefully LTE will be up & running in my area, but for now I'm happy with GS2 & Wimax.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
I don't think FF18 will be the last build
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thirdcoastraised:
As for LTE, yes the Epic touch will receive benefits of the LTE service, but there is no LTE radio in the Epic touch or any other sgs2 for that matter. The coming LG phone will support both 8&1900 mHz, and shortly after sgs3, Sammy has a nice surprise coming...just sayin.

Disappointing. I am aching for source.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] thirdcoastraised:
What part of ICS is NOTHING LIKE AndroidOS prior do folks not understand. ICS is a totally new system parts of GB were taken as well as parts of HC and tweaked and merged to create ICS, which is in reality nothing more than a precursor and test for Jellybean hence the reason JB is NOT Android 5.0 but rather Android 4.x.x!

Again, updating to Android 4.0.anything is VOLUNTARY. Your phone will not self destruct, nor will Sprint, Samsung, or Google lose any sleep should you choose to stay on GB or for that matter if you choose to regress all the way back to Eclair.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tyknee:
A lot of people keep talking about "source", which I assume means some sort of source code that allows devs to build their own roms from scratch or something. Is the source code release usually done in parallel with the OTA or is there something about the OTA that allows you to pull the source out of it or...?

In other words, is it possible they could do an OTA and NOT release the source?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 512jmann10:
Alrighty!!

I been waiting for a good stock version of the ice cream android, my sister has a epic touch and of course it needed to be rooted, but she wouldn't let me install no rom until I know its stable and stock looking,now i can!! Android family representing :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Source is the open source code that it used to build the Android OS. Source is not always dropped at the same time as the OTA. Sometimes it's before, sometimes after, but they are generally within a few days of each other. Devs use the source code to build their roms and improve the existing OS by focusing in on certain aspects, such a specific bug, and creating a workaround, or outright, rewriting a portion of the code to fix the bug. In other words, once the devs get a hold of source, it will dramatically improve ICS and their roms.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
Not true. The Galaxy SII Skyrocket on AT&T is runs on their LTE network. That's why Sammy put a dual core Snapdragon in it instead of their own Exynos.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wizard Knight:
Thats the att version. This is a different phone. The hardware doesn't support sprints lte network

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] datajosh:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] donsh00tmesanta:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mdeathike:
None of those phones have lte radios our phone will not utilize the lte signals. I don't know why anyone thinks that it would. We have wimax phones not lte phones.. We will benefit from network vision upgrades but our phones WILL NOT SUPPORT LTE.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
The stupidity in this thread is alarming. The phone does not have the hardware for lte. The reps are confusing lte and wimax since sprint uses the term 4g for both of them. But I can say with 100% certainty the epic touch does not support lte.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] riggs170:
Its definitely fun to think about, like winning the lottery all i know is I have searched high and far looking for specs on our Qualcomm 8085 chip it must be a secret or something IMO the processor should have nothing to do with the data chip, it still operates at 800MHz and 1900MHZ band whether its wimax or lte i find it hard to believe our device is included as well but just saying would be cool

after everyone donated the money for me to get the phone i have been forwarded every donation ive received split between source and sextape (as it was both of them involved that got us the leak in the first place :) ) when fb17 came out KC_exactly sent me 25 bucks, i split it then, and before fb15 came out i sent 35 bucks between the two.

rjmjr69 has an e4gt he plans on sending to sextape for his services, but its gunna be a bit :/. some of you may have noticed i have my donation link in my sig.. while it doesnt go directly to either one any money that goes into it does get sent to them :P

so while i sit here and work o making a nice acs rom for fb17 (fb21 has too many issues IMO) learning how to do sgs2 kernels so i can update ACS recovery so that we have more choices then steadys awesome sauce recovery (mines gunna be better tho ;P ) or the cwm which seems to have everyone in a brick scare. ive also been working to make sure both sextape and source are kept happy so that we get more tasty treats :D

A few months ago I was half right. They didn't go simless they were embedded. My source didn't know this and neither did I so how were we suppose to know? We could only tell there was no sim card.

Now sprint has reevaluated itself and may make the switch to removable sim cards. Not saying it will happen, but its possible

Ya, but you have to admit it is quite amusing how much the customer service doesn't know. Imagine the frustration I had this week. The WSJ, the USA Today, and Samsung's own press release all said that the new NFC tags were in stores now. Well, they aren't. Furthermore, not one Sprint store in Kansas City knows what a NFC tag is. When I called the Verizon store they didn't even know either. They actually told me that NG was not NFC capable. The best was when I asked if they knew what NFC was they said no. How in the world can you know if the phone is capable of something or if you sell it if you don't know what it is.

The moral of the story is we all need to stick together. We are all alone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] KBizzle:
Lol. That reminds me of the time when ring back tones first came about. I called in and asked if they could set one for me. No kidding, I was on the phone for 45 min just trying to explain to them one of their own features. Its also funny when I call in to have a phone activated that I know what I'm doing and the procedure they are trying to tell me isn't going to work. Oh and please don't ask for an msl, they will think you're trying to steal top secret encrypted sprint files.
