They don't spend time thinking about that type of thing when they are developing. It is more than likely just a low priority bug for them.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
Loss of data is first on the priority list and then loss of function then new features. Since we haven't had any Los of data issues then loss if function is next. The sdcard item is fixed so the notification dug would be next.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] dutchman71:
I thought Calk fixed the SD issue?

You know what... I think calk is a Sammy dev working on the rom lol :p

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] starnostar:
I'm pretty sure if caulkin had access to what the Samsung devs have access to, we would have had it months ago...it baffles me why they don't try to hire some of these ppl.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
You know why companies hire these developers? To get them to improve their own software and security. Make it impossible to root and unlock bootloaders. Like Apple does, they hire the people who jailbreak the iPhone to make it more secure
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
But if they make it Harder to jailbreak or root. Couldn't they easily do the opposite because they made the security in the first place
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 3meister:
Doesn't sound like Samsung wants to make it impossible to do anything. They're pretty open with custom roms.

Maybe they're hiring for the sole purpose of improving Touchwiz software features for their next flagship.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
It's possible... Or maybe they will be locking down their devices. It wouldn't he the first time a company changed their mind on something. They already changed it so the bootloaders track how many times you flash a different kernel
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xCovErtWolFx757:
But that is easily changed
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
Yup. Like how HTC locked bootloaders and then publically made an attempt to officially unlock them based on user feedback. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Yeah about that unlocking method

Want to go do some research on what people think about that half-ass unlocking method?

It is one of the big reasons why I'm considering passing on the EVO. If I can't get S-OFF, I would rather wait top the SGS3 or just get the Nexus in a couple of weeks
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] barnacles10:
I'm 100% familiar with the method. Which is why I said made an attempt. I'm 100% familiar with the process and what it means for the user.

I wasn't disagreeing I was saying HTC has changed their minds, and then tried to fix it (ie learned that maybe a completely locked bootloader isn't always the way to go) THAT was my point. I did not comment on how effective it was. Its the principle of the above example. Sorry for any confusion.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Ahh no I'm sorry I misunderstood you. Yeah they attempted. But let us not forget Motorola. Who originally never had locked bootloaders, then switched to them, then encrypted them, then said they would unlock them at carriers discretion, yet not one Motorola device has been released since that statement with an unlocked bootloader. And we all know Sprint is all for open development and that the Photon went against their own philosophy
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
What is the big difference between the Nexus and Evo?

I have read the Nexus processor still out performs the Evo. Other than the camera size am I missong something. They are both 720p.

So, why would want out shine the.other? I here people talking talking about jumping ship....why?

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] daniel4653:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Where in the world did you read the nexus processor out performs the Evo ??

And on top of that every piece of hardware in the nexus is outdated. And the Evo has the latest hardware out in production on the market to date
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] musclehead84:
They probably added tje counter to make the carriers happy so they didn't have to lock the bootloader.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Right...and what's next? You know Verizon and AT&T would kill to have Samsung lock down their bootloaders. Verizon tried all they could to make Galaxy Nexus not as pure as it was suppose to be
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
When you think about it the reason these phones have crazy processors is just to run a skin on top of AOSP smoothly. The nexus runs just fine and is built to run Jelly Bean.

1. Development starts once the phone and updates are released

2. realtime video effects

3. no shutter lag

4. guaranteed to get JB and get it before other phones which will also be released with source.

the processor doesnt need to be crazy cause its only gotta run AOSP
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kc_exactly:
I apologize. I was comparing the wrong processor. By the way, I added a link to the FD05 over the weekend. I am sure everyone already new this though.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] odub303:
The trend has, for quite some time now, been moving towards unlocked bootloaders, not the other way. Why anyone listens to anything you have to say is beyond my comprehension.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Lmao, why you even chime in is beyond me. That's why Motorola has been switching all their device to unlockable bootloaders right? Or what about LG?

Why anyone even bothers to listen to you is way beyond my comprehension. You seriously are misguided if you believe companies are going towards unlockable

All companies began with unlockable bootloaders and moved away from them. Not the other way around. They are doing it to secure their devices and ensure people cannot screw them up. The only reason HTC did what try did was because of the backlash. They didn't have to though. They could have just said what Motorola said and moved on
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
Well umm let's use the term guaranteed loosely. Though it may be true, there seems to be some major delay in rolling out software updates now with Google
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] AsinX:
the only reason was because the nexus s had dumb wimax its easy to see that
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:
You do know that the gsm nexus s got its update only about two weeks ago?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
You guys are the best debaters. Such valid points expressed and mutual respect is evident. I can see you both going places.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Whosdaman:

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] buggerritt:
No worries. It's not really my place to critique, anyway. I just thought it was funny.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 4redstars:
Can one person post in here something that is proven fact? I'm finding that highly unlikely...ok commence stupid bickering.

Get it back! In January I had switched from the E4GT to iPhone but I just traded back. There are a ton of Craigslisters who will trade their E4GT for your iPhone (if its 4S) and even some who will add cash on their side.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] _MetalHead_:
I still have my E4GT, but it's listed for sale all over the internet. I am leaving Sprint, I am tired of their crap data speeds. The E4GT is the best phone I've ever had, but there is no point in having such a data hungry device when you don't have access to usable data.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] tokuzumi:

This is good news. Looks like Samsung is moving foward, and learning from their update debacles for the original Galaxy S line. Samsung is becoming the #1 android manufacturer, and they are doing what it takes to stay that way. I hope they can keep up this momentum.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] xlGmanlx:
While I think we are all excited for official/leaked ICS, what does that say for the state of AOSP development on this phone? I am hoping this unlocks a lot of areas that spurs some AOSP development because it would be a shame to be locked into Sammy only (although they have updated this phone more than most originally thought no?)

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] reddragon72:
Well with Gingerbread everything is changed and installing a launcher from the market just masks the launcher but everything else has that same blocky feeling and it becomes very inconsistent. I even tried all the Go stuff once and there where to many instances where using a link to another app would open the touchwiz app instead of the go app so I gave up.

Once a leak gets out there I'll just watch how everything goes and go from there, no biggie right now as the phone is ok the way it is.

Are these "leaks" authorzied or something? What relation does sammobile on twitter have to Samsung?
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] kiekan:
No, they are not authorized. They are exactly that, leaks. "Sammobile" just uses that alias because they specialize in acquiring Samsung firmwares.

how two phones, of the same model, running the same SW, "ideally" installed the same way, could act so differently.

the "gps trick" of flashing back to a earlier GB build for a gps lock, wiping everything, then flashing a new ICS based rom, and somehow that "sticks"? senseless.

I'm assuming you are actually asking... "Why is Samsung not merging with the 4.0.4 source yet?"

Well, going from GB to ICS is a big enough leap, our guess here is that once they get the issues ironed out for that, then a small update from 4.0.3 to 4.0.4 should be "easy".

True, with the exception of the "Android OS" battery eating bug fix. which is to everyones benefit.
