I guess the same reason why I purchased my og evo 4G at release even after going thru that the 3d and epic touch to this day I still don't have 4G where I live...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
I personally am going to wait to see if the Note 2 will come to Sprint. Id rather have that than the S3.

But on an OTA related note, just to stay on topic, i just hope it doesnt release this Monday. Thats the day of Warped Tour here in KC, so i wouldnt be able to get it til late that night or the morning after. If its FF18 based, will i be able to get it OTA if i flash FF18 now? And if I remember right, I would not be able to get OTA if i have a custom recovery installed. Right?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Stock EL29 or no OTA.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
Alright. Thanks!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] proxy0:
How quick will root come to ota? I'm already rooted but ill update ota then wait for root.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Depends. May already have it if FF18 ends up being the final release.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] fatboypup:
Oh hai, I miss you guys
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] JDinAZ74:
Hell I'd settle for wimax at this point. I live in one of the biggest cities in the US and wimax is spotty at best. If I ever want to see 4G in my lifetime I'll have to switch to Verizon :(
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Ravaged Pheonix:
Yeah a week after I left AT&T for sprint I got an email from AT&T saying 4g just went live in my area.

Its what all the cool kids are using.

Wrong subject
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Hahahahaha! On Tapatalk, when I looked at this thread, it said

"I have the best news for you all ICS for Epic Touch!!! Now on Wrong subject"

Isn't that always the case, LOL!

6 more days til Sprint Tech Support said OTA will drop. My Asus EEEtab just updated this morning, but it's been on ICS.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Only 34 more pages to go, we'll easily cover that in 6 days. lol

See I'm hoping I did you guys a favor by switching to the SGSIII (for now) usually the way my luck goes as soon as I move up to something new the something old gets updated.

Plus I treat my E4GT like the Blarney Stone and kiss it every day for luck.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Gross! Do you not realize where that things been? LOL!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
It's mine, of course I do! :D Unless you mean the real Blarney Stone, which I haven't had the pleasure of kissing but my son did when he went over to Ireland in high school, lucky brat.

Staying on topic, we're what, 18 days beyond the last rdf, that's gotta mean something just not sure what. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Hope you use lots of hand sanitizer, LOL! And kissing the Blarney Stone, barf!!! The wife and I are going to Ireland in Nov and she wants to do it. I can only imagine the amount of herpes on that thing, LOL! I wanna take pics of me teabagging it the night before and show it to everyone after they kiss it, LOL! But again, the herpes, so no ball contact.

It means they're optimizing sales of the GS3 so that they don't have 2 ICS phones competing it's first week out of the gates. I have a lady at work getting her first smart phone. I told her to get this one and she said, "But the GS3 comes in pebble blue. It's so pretty. And it has ice cream sandwich. I don't know what that is, but it sounds good!" I facepalmed. She'll get what she gets. It's being used as a selling point. From the sounds of it, it's an effective one. When they've bled it dry, they'll release it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Don't you dare desecrate the Blarney Stone! (as if you'd be the first lol) I'll definitely be sure to sanitize the spot I'm about to kiss when I finally make it over there. Guys are so gross. *wrinkles nose*

I guess I'm one of the few who isn't impressed with the pebble blue, but I typically like my cell phones in black. Of course since there was no black option with the SGSIII, I got the white and I like it okay, but still would prefer black. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
:Cartman: Whateva! I do wut I want!

Yeah! I don't get it! What is it with cell phones coming in all these goofy colors? What happened to classic black? I don't need to make a statement with my phone other than a call or a text. It's not a fashion accessory or status symbol, and if I want it to be, I'll buy a case... or a POS iPhone.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] EggosEvo:
The one thing that I acually like about the iPhone is how you can replace the front and back plates with different colors or materials. Meaning one could replace the back with stainless steel if they wanted to(and were fine with the extra weight). But thats the only good thing about it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] brooksyx:
I'm probably gonna stick with epic 4g touch. But if I can afford an galaxy siii I am gonna hold out for the red one :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Well I went ahead and made the jump because I used my son's upgrade and I really like the phone but so far it isn't a clear winner over my E4GT and I'll probably swap back and forth between them for a bit until I decide which I like best.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
It isn't a clear winner because it's an incremental upgrade at best, LOL! Sucker!!!!! Patience is NOT one of my virtues, but (and I blame my Scottish heritage for this) thrifty is. My opinion, (I want to make that clear, this is my opinion, and I'm not belittling anyone [but maybe Eso] for making the swap) it's just a waste of money for me right now. It's a con job and better phones from Samsung will be out in too near a future for me to waste my upgrade on it.

Too many parentheses.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
The HD (720p) screen is worth the upgrade alone. I moved from the ET4G to the Galaxy Nexus and the screen BLOWS me away. It's so sharp, crisp, and beautiful. I'm nothing but happy.

Con job? That's a bit ridiculous. There will always be newer, better phones coming down the line in a few months. That's how the market works.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
I don't think it's ridiculous. The difference between this phone and the US variant of the GS3, in my opinion, is not worth the $600+ price tag if you don't have the upgrade. The spec difference hardware wise is small enough that I would call it a 2.5 before calling it a 3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BigHussle:
FF18 Is not The Final Release....... I saw FG30but who knows.....i have my sources
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sleshepic:
Pretty sure fg30 makes no sense...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] garwynn:
Honestly since I just got a second E4GT at a good price I'm hoping that will be one for the missus. Then all I need is one for Dev efforts and I'm off to the races with this phone - at least until we get an LTE phone. That's probably a year away.

Man my wife is getting spoiled this week - work gave me an iPad so that's hers - now she's likely going to replace her Opt S with an E4GT as long as they'll activate it. Why could the Nexus 7 come with HDMI/MHL support so I could get a new toy?!?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] husker apollo:
troll detected.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 30footfall:
bad troll

Question:

By commenting about the troll do i make it stronger. Do I use a common sense approach and show its errors (which may also make it stronger)? Or do i just inset a smiley face and go about my day?

Answer:

:cowboy: im wearing a hat
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
To paraphrase Nietzshe (and fall right into the same trap) :

"Battle not with [trolls], lest ye become a [troll], and if you gaze into the abyss, the abyss gazes also into you."
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
har har if I wasn't so assured of your continued adoration of me I might take offense (or a fence if tempted!)

My purchase was less about getting a much improved phone and more about just getting a new toy. Yay, I love new toys lol but there are enough noticeable differences that the $269.99 doesn't seem like a waste. Like it already has ICS and source has already been released, so there :nyah: :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kingsway8605:
The little kid is probably bullied in school and probably has parents who neglect him. Let him feel important and let him troll a little, it isn't his fault his own parents wish he didn't exist.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Ouch! Low blow! From anyone but Eso I think that would've been an infraction... ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Heh, where's a good troll picture to post for her response??

I kid I kid.. sorta
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] someguyatx:
I was holding out for the next leak but ended up flashing AOKP this morning. Typically the next release is updated hours after I flash a new rom.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
hahaha That made me laugh right as I was taking a call at work, sometimes a fake cough just doesn't fool anyone. :p

---------- Post added at 02:42 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:40 PM ----------

Doh! I sorta trolled and didn't mean to ::facepalm:: mea culpa :o

---------- Post added at 02:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 02:42 PM ----------

You have my luck, which is why I thought you guys would have OTA by now. lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
I finally do something clever and paraphrase Nietzshe, no less, and you troll. Tsk Tsk. It's a good thing you have my complete adoration, otherwise, I wouldn't know what to do with you. I'll just keep adoring. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ebuc:
dude said fg30 -_-
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] searcher61:
Your absolutely correct...but then again I also used my son's upgrade, so I didn't pay 600+...and gave him my s2. He had the original Evo and is very happy with the S2 as am I with the S3. There are so many features on the phone it is taking me awhile to learn it all. I never put ICS on my S2, so the S3 seems like a big upgrade. just wish there was a way to reset the counter on the S3.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] searcher61:
Agreed :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
I'm a Nietzsche fan, I was duly impressed and meant to give you mad props for it but was overwhelmed by my embarrassment over (sorta) trolling. You know what a humble being I am. :p

So kudos to you my friend! :D

---------- Post added at 04:21 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:19 PM ----------

hmmm I wonder if the USB jig would work on the SGSIII. I may query that to qbking and see what he says.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
That would be July 30th. Considering that isn't even close yet, there's no way to even speculate a build release for that date. A troll, is a troll, is a troll, is an Eso. LOL!

I'm not letting her live that inadvertent trolling down, LOL!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] searcher61:
Was reading a few sites...they said no.

Already rooted...then unrooted..because I want to use the NFC and need to do more reading about the affect of root on it.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
:o This is almost as bad as the time I asked for an ETA on a ROM. Oy did I have mud on my face. :o

Now stop being mean to me! :crying: I'm a tender soul dontcha know :p

---------- Post added at 04:27 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:25 PM ----------

Eh, figures. I get a nifty little doohickie and it has a short shelf life. Oh well it still works with my E4GT. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] &roid:
I'd like an ETA on the OTA... :P
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
LMAO I have my sources ....ridiculous.......
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Eso send me your E4GT!!!!! haha how's the SGS3 treating ya?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
My apologies. With all of the adoration I show you, I can't let people think I've gone soft. That just wouldn't do. ;) I'll just have to move my praise and admonishments back to PMs, LOL! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Well, at least you didn't TOTALLY run off from the II yet. :p
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Yano I'm liking it more than I thought I would but I'm not 100% sold on using it as my primary, its got a lot of proving to do and I'm hanging onto the E4GT until I decide (and possibly beyond that, but never know *adds sextape to list* heh).

I'm running Blazer on it right now and it's a real sweet set up.

---------- Post added at 04:44 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:43 PM ----------

hahaha Noooo once it has been seen it can not be unseen, people must know that you worship me. (Okay I could hardly type that with a straight face) :p

---------- Post added at 04:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 04:44 PM ----------

Pffttt, no Sir, I'm not that easy to get rid of :D you guys are stuck with me "through infinity and beyond!" hehe
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Yeah I was thinking of getting it but I might hold off on it for now
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
If I hadn't been able to use my son's upgrade then I would've held off for a bit, but to be honest qbking's review is what sold me, well that and the lower price. lol

I really expected it to feel too large in my hand (pervs behave!) but it's a lot more comfortable to hold and use even in my small hands.

Attention mods (I'm looking at you Jay lol) I hate to be a bother but I really must demand access to more than 8 thanks a day! :p I know I could use tapatalk (now I'm looking at you Tray) but it's so much easier to type on my big keyboard and read on my 24" monitor. So if you could hook me up I'd appreciate it. kthxbai!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
Lol trolling and borderline inappropriate innuendo! Eso what are you turning into?! :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Uh ..... iSaint I think lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Eso I'll take your gs3 if you don't want it later ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] :
Thats what she said lol....
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
She's been hanging around me too much. I was gonna say something about the whole things looking big in tiny hands, but I left it alone. Too easy.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] searcher61:
I really liked the extra 50G of space free from dropbox.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Shhhhhh!!!!!! That's a secret!!!!!!!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] searcher61:
I always thought you had "tiny hands"...lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] The Root:
I have found nothing to dislike about this phone. Loss of 4g hasn't been noticeable.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Nah. I have bass players hands. My wife has small hands though. The "E4GT" looks enormous in her hands. LOL!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Wizard Knight:
Wish my wife's hands made things look enormous :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jpkelly05:
I tried the S3 today at Sprint. Beautiful in white... but no LTE and the fact that we may see 800 Mhz LTE next year means I will wait. I really thought it was super fast swiping compared to the E4GT, but who knows. The store dude said he was switching from his Icrap to the S3.

Also he showed me the swipe with your palm for screenshot. That was cool. I will have to watch QBKings review video.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
:D Yay, thank you, thank you *bows with flourish*

(I'd give you real thanks if we weren't held to %#&@$ 8 thanks in 24hr time frame)

---------- Post added at 06:45 PM ---------- Previous post was at 06:43 PM ----------

No LTE here either and probably won't be until after Armaggedon but I have noticed my 3G speeds are better than on my E4GT likely due to better antennae/radio?

*start disclaimer* This is in no way meant as an insult to my E4GT, which I love dearly *end disclaimer* :p

(p.s. only 29 pages to go!)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] searcher61:
I got the blue one...just can't buy a white phone, but it does look nice. I have a refresh coming next July, so I can still get a new phone next year, and give my son my S3 :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Very nice! Showing some love and its all good!!:p:D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] edufur:
Is there a hate thread we can follow? One that complains about samsung taking so long to release an official build? This thing has been out for a very long time now.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] MoHoGalore:
Yeah, we've been doing that too. PapaSmurph has been kind enough to let us and occasionally Jay pops back in w a comment or two.. but as long as we talk about where we are (FF18) and stay on topic, we have lucked out..
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] rwilco12:
I'm starting a petition. I believe we should change this thread from the ICS for Epic Touch thread to the Eso thread. That way she can keep coming back and keep us entertained and in line even after we get the final build and she abandons us for her S3.

I mean come on! After Sextape left us we are down to one lady here in our forum! :D

All in favor - Hit my thanks button! ;)

EDIT: I apologize for reigniting the Sextape gender guessing game... I just couldn't resist what with his/her reappearance. :confused:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
hahaha Noooooo!!!!

Besides I won't abandon you guys, it would take too long to train other people to think so highly of me :p

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
Dude, torrenting from your phone is a bad idea, especially if the content isn't exactly legal. Give it up. Your phone has all kinds of identifiers that will enable, at the very least, tracking directly to your Sprint account.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Jeffreycat:
This phone isn't linked to a Sprint account, or any other cell phone provider.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Omar04:
The you want someone to make it possible just for you? Pffft :what:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:
Then how are you going to download torrents without any internet ? Wifi? Use a damn computer for that.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Esoteric68:
Geezus, how about you take a pill? No one is hurting anyone here, you pop in from seemingly nowhere after 972 pages of people talking on-topic and kidding around and have a ***** about what is going on?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] TrayLunch:
You couldn't have SEEN FG30 as a build or an rdf because it's not July 30th yet, so since you claim you've seen it, you've only seen someone post their baseless speculation. Please make sure you specify exactly what it is you are referring to next time. Some have gotten real info and have been kind enough to share it. We want to make sure we don't confuse you with them.
