Time to update your signature then! lol. Never could quite figure out the need for the lapdock. Maybe I'll pick one up on ebay and play around with it. The ICS update seems to have been big for lapdock users.

I had my phone auto answer when plugged in and sitting face up on counter. How can I stop that I don't want it answering on it's own?

Only thing i could think of is in the dial pad settings. Under accessory settings.

But it seems that is only suppose to work when a headset is connected.

All your apps should be saved on your google account......
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaxToTheMax:
Usually Google play already save all your downloaded apps (paid/free) in your My Apps section (in PlayStore press Menu->My Apps). Another option is to get AppBak from Google play & use it to backup/restore ur apps :)

just the apps since I've already used kies to backup the data, but maybe you know some program better than kies, if I'm right?

Please excuse me, since I'm new to android.

Really? Even those games that have game save?
[Galaxy Note II Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] RaxToTheMax:
Well I'm not sure it saves the app data too as AppBak only create a txt file with all the apps you have & their download link (from which it restores them).

If you want the data too then you should try Titanium Backup,I read it saves app data too,but its a lil complicated to use,u might want to check out tutorials for it

Hi all

I have tried gaining s-off (mainly to use ext2 partition). I am rooted and currently running AOKP ROM (milestone5). I have tried using revolutionary but this does not work, not entirely sure if this is due to me running ICS? Any tips you could give to help me get s-off would be greatly appreciated.:good:

Thanks
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] k3lcior:
You cannot S-OFF when you're using A2SD ROM, switch back to stock or CM7 and it will work fine.

Go to bootloader (hold vol- and power up the phone), whats your hboot version?

If it's 0.93.0001 or 1.02.0001 you can use http://revolutionary.io/ fastest and easiest method.
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Spyrek10:
I used alpharev's .img file and updated hboot through bootloader.

Hboot 0.93001
[Desire Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jeanjean8501:
Only, in order to be sure, have you launch revolutionnary in administrator mode ? (and get the x64 drive if you run it on a such OS)

I ask you, because on my HTC desire when i was in CM 7.2 it was the only reasons why i don't succeed to gain S-OFF ...

So all of us here are using The epic 4g touch. I was just curious and thought it would be interesting for everyone to state what phone they came from..how they ended up with this phone. And you're future with this phone (keeping it, upgrading, etc) ..please don't say "I'm leaving this phone because it sucks, something is wrong with it, etc) this is just a light friendly topic:)

And if something is wrong with this thread ..the mods can feel free to remove it..I mean no harm at all :):thumbup:

I'll start:

Well I came from the Samsung intercept from Virgin mobile ..had that phone for a while...actually that was my real first smart phone ..I never been a big phone person until I hit xda...anyway me and that phone didn't get along at all lol, so last December (haven't had this phone that long) I was randomly walking past the Sprint store and decided to look at phones..didn't want an iPhone.. so I got the best phone in the store which was this (best decision ever) :)

My future with this phone, I love it and was going to give my mom this phone since she loves it over her iPhone and get myself a note 2...which will be great because this epic 4g community is awsome and taught me a lot :)

I had the Kyocera Zio from cricket and because my battery was getting to be terrible and did not last any more than 4 hours I decided it was time for an upgrade.

Cricket did not have anything that I was interested in at the time and since I was working for AT&T doing technical support for U-Verse, I was trying to get the Skyrocket, AT&T wanted a crazy deposit even though I was an employee... I walked over to a Sprint kiosk, and told them I wanted the Galaxy S II, they tried selling me an iPhone and I said no, I want the S2. There was a $0 deposit, so I jumped on the deal.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Febby:
I came from an Evo 3D which didn't suit me very well because of the lack of updates at the time. Plus the 3D was useless if no one else I knew had it. I played around with an epic 4g touch. Instantly I fell in love with the design and camera, regardless of the LOS fear 3D users used to keep people from jumping. Now my future is that I'm jumping over to a Galaxy nexus but still keeping up with the E4GT since my brother and friends own it. :)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] H4rryTipp3r:
I also came from the samsung intercept, which was also my first real smart phone. That thing never had anything good for me. Before that I had a rant and a rumor, both which were also terrible phones. I only got this phone June 1st of this year because that's when my contract was finally up and my parents made me buy my own phone. (I'm only 18) I was looking at the phones at sprint months before my upgrade, and reading up on the ones I liked. I finally decided on this because one it just looks amazing, two all the reviews were good and three I figured it would be a good entry level phone for myself. I couldn't be any happier!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] byrdcfmma:
HTC Evo until the sprint software upgrade turned it into a turd. I was due for an upgrade, so I got the E4GT. Worked great on GB for a few months until we got OTA to ICS. After *****ing to sprint and Samsung, I saw a post on AC about rolling back to GB. I did that and stayed on GB for about a month, and then started experimenting with other rooms. Once I found this place, I rarely go anywhere else. Although I'm a newbie, everyone seems cool here .

Yes it was one hell of an upgrade from that horrid thing! I actually would like to thank Sprint, or whoever for the ****ty ota update to ICS. If it wasn't for that I would never have ventured into root and custom ROM land. I'm happy I did though, I've been missing out on a lot!

Had a Evo 3D, then got the E4GT thanks to Asurion as they gave me a brand new one as a replacement for my 3D, & as of a week ago I've sold my E4GT & used my upgrade to get a GNex, but I'm not really sure yet if I'm gonna keep this or not as I have until the 29th to be able to return it & that's also the same day that Google will announce the new Nexus, but if its the same as we've been reading with only 8 & 16GB models then I'm definitely keeping my GNex.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ttittoo:
I had a blackberry tour and I have to say that it was great but battery was in a way awful. I went to sprint after my contract with the mentality (95%) of getting an iPhone but i saw a phone with a huge display and awsome colors. My metality dropped by about 50% in about 2 minutes. Make long story short, ended up leaving with an epic 4g touch:D:thumbup:. I will be upgrading to the galaxy s4 whenever it comes out. Hopefully it comes out before i can upgrade in June next year. Note 2 just looks to big for a phone and I like to use my phone in one hand. Easier to swype on tapatalk. I will stick with any Galaxy forever and ever and ever. I have had a great experience.

Came from the evo 4g only reason I got the epic 4g touch was because I messed up and lost my wimax keys with so much flashing I did and never had a nandroid so I was stuck on 3g and couldn't take it no more so brought a e4gt off Craigslist lol. My upgrade been up since June and after checking out the battery stats post in the note 2 forum I'm thinking on jumping on that beast lol 8-10hrs screen on is insane lol.

BTW Miguel I seen you lurking in the note 2 thread ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] asd87:
I came from the HTC EVO 4G. I loved that phone and would have kept it longer if I didn't drop it and shatter the screen at work. I had my upgrade waiting for the EVO LTE but then I seen Apple (the Devil) cause it to get held up in customs and I needed a new phone quick.

I went to Best Buy (no need for rebates) to get the Galaxy Nexus for Sprint but they didn't carry it for Sprint. I seen they had the Epic 4G Touch for $100 so I jumped on it!

My nest device will be another HTC, can't wait to see what they come up with in 2 years lol. Although buy that time I'm sure Samsung will have the Galaxy S V.

So I guess I just have to wait til my upgrade and see whats out by then. Tech changes so much in such a short time.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] krazy_smokezalot:
Then head to the one at PG Mall! I might get mines full price then sell this E4GT!

Had a couple of decent LG phones with verizon(chocolate and voyager LULZ) before getting my first real smartphone. The Huawei Ascend from MetroPCS. That was short lived due to how laggy it was. If I had seconds to live and a call to make...well, I would've died lol

I do take my E4GT for granted looking back..my future with this phone is an upgrade if the next nexus rumors hold true. Not due for an upgrade till June though.

Well, I started my smartphone life with a Treo 600, then the 700w, then I had a windoze slider phone on T-Mobile "the wing" then a BB pearl, then HTC touch, BB world tour, then palm pre. I broke my pre in a car accident and got a sprintercept(first android) after that I went to the evo4g, had a photon given to me but passed it to my wife. Then I got the et4g given to me when my dad went to att for the note for a few months. Now he's back on sprint with the sgs3 which is what ill be using when he gets the note2 while I wait for something to grab my attention. My et4g will replace my evo4g on my work line until I decide to upgrade and then the sgs3 will replace it and the et4g will go to my Wifey.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] blackcanopy:
My phone before this one was the Samsung Galaxy S Epic 4g. I really enjoyed that phone (after rooting it), but rarely used the slide out keyboard.

Reading the specs for the E4GT sold me on it before it was ever released. My son had purchased 2 of these phones on release day and gave one to me.

I am still very happy with this phone and haven't given any serious thought about what my next endeavor will be, but most likely staying with Samsung products.

Sprint he dropped att after 3 months cuz of all the dropped calls and only getting hspa+ his note would never stay connected to lte after it went to sleep so he came back to the darkside. He got the sgs3 when he came back which ill get as soon as the note 2 is out. He changes phones as soon as something he wants pops up and gives me his old one which is usually less than 6 month old. I also had an og iPhone between the wing and Pearl but had it less than 10 days and don't really like to admit I ever owned one :rolleyes:

I've been on Android since the T-Mobile G1. Loved that thing, thought it was an incredible piece of technology (iPhone 3g at the time notwithstanding), and I really appreciated the extensibility of the framework and being able to fully customize the UI.

Fast forward a contract later and I fell in love with the HTC Evo 4G. Really enjoyed the device which to me was a marriage of beautiful hardware and Sense UI kicked some ass with the user experience. Happily, my beloved Android framework was more evolved and trending more market share in the tech community. Kept my Evo fir little over my first Sprint contract and after a free hardware replacement thanks to a faulty power button, I flipped it on Ebay for a song and snatched up a ET4G, after having previously purchased an ex girlfriend a Samsung Moment a year or so prior.

Honestly, I was a little nervous about jumping from HTC to Samsung, but unfortunately for HTC there was nothing comparable to the S2. My main fears with Sprint stemmed from seeing a poor update cycle and little developer community support. However, by the time I got to the S2 I was far too busy with work (software developer/project manager) to focus on modding/customizing.

Now that I've swapped my phone recently I'll take the time in the none too distant future to play around with some available mods...though I'd really just like to get a current stock build with Google Now, a custom boot loader, and CRT animation. I've toyed with the idea if getting an iPhone 5 after getting an iPad2 earlier this year but still believe that for at least mobile smart phone tech, Android is king. Plus to take advantage of true LTE that would mean I'd have to jump ship to my first mobile telecom, Verizon.

The Galaxy S3 looks tempting but doesn't seem a significant enough an upgrade to warrant an early upgrade cash out. Likewise there haven't been any HTC models for Sprint that can compete with Samsung's HW capabilities (these phones have the BEST cameras, bar none). Likewise the Nexus is lacking to me for lack of SD support. So for upgrades for now...improving the base software of my S2 until a far superior total package upgrade is available.

In a perfect world, Samsung and HTC would partner up and Samsung would design all HW while HTC writes the front end Android code. Wishful thinking, I suppose.

I will say this though, i think Samsung could make even more of a killing if they pitched in to help Sprint with training their staff. These phones are extremely powerful and capable devices, but user knowledge outside the modder community is sub par.

Thank goodness for XDA...! :thumbup:

Had the OG evo 4g slipped out of my pocket and cracked my screen into about 100 pieces and needed a phone for a trip to Chicago a week later. I forgot I had TEP and was able to Getty the upgrade price since I activated my Sprint account with the EVO and hadn't bought a "new" phone yet. I do like this phone but I'm going to be switching to TMobile and the Note II it's big enough for my large hands and hopefully I will stop putting in so many periods when I'm trying to hit the space bar lol

I kept switching between an iPhone with no data plan and a go phone before my E4GT. I realized how terrible iPhones are and knew I wanted something with FAR more customization. In my opinion, iPhones are unusable without jailbreak. I don't like the epic touch much anymore because data only works correctly (4g and ping) on gingerbread, I wish it had a higher resolution screen, and I cracked the bottom left corner of it pretty good when I blacked out on my roommates 21st birthday. For my next phone, I will be grabbing a nexus device and getting prepaid service, most likely t-mobile.

I had Verizon before this phone. I had the fascinate, which was a pretty good phone when I had it =]. JT1134 and Sbrissen had a lot of good ROMs, and there was a lot of aosp choices. I told Verizon to piss up a rope with their $110 dollars a month I was paying for one line though at the end of my contract. I knew I was going with sprint, as I had been checking out phones for a while since my big red contract was about to end. I had my eye on the epic 4g touch since its release, and I've been really happy with it since I've had it =]. I think I'll be waiting for the next nexus when my upgrade comes around. I like aosp so much, I've made a decision as of late that I'm just going to stick with the pure Google experience from now on. My upgrade isn't for a while yet, so don't expect to see me disappearing from these parts any time soon ;)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] BiffTirkle:
My history with smartphones is long and boring starting with the Treo.

My last phone was the evo design because I didn't want a huge phone. The community there was small and so I got mad at the fact I had to have a big effing phone to have the performance I wanted, i griped about it for weeks and finally bit the bullet and got the e4gt. Rooted it and was disappointed to find the cyanogenmod team didn't support the phone, didn't like it sold it and hung out the the evo design for a few months until I got another e4gt.

I looked at the evo lte and the nexus, since I don't have lte service here yet I decided against any lte phone. I also like having external micro SD storage.

I'm extremely picky about my tech and I usually go through 2 or 3 phones a year. Longest run was my palm pre.

I picked up a white e4gt from Craigslist back in June I think. So far I like the phone, I like the community here which has been fantastic. I've spent more time on this forum than any other to date.

My upgrade came up Sept 1st but didn't want the S3 since it's not that much of an upgrade from the Epic Touch. Was going to wait for the GS4 but the gadget nerd in me wants the Note 2. I'm going to have to go check it out this week to see it in person.

I started my smartphone life with the Treo 650 and also worked my way to the Palm Pre etc... 2 things I missed about the Pre are the multitask ability and the wave menu. I haven't found an app for multitasking quite the same, but I did find an app for the wave menu that I started using on my OG Epic 4g, and now my E4GT, that is very similar to the Pre. It's called wave launcher on play store. If you haven't already, check it out. Sweetest shortcut app in my opinion.
