[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] g_ding84:
I have had a long line of sammy phones. Starting with the Samsung instinct. It was good for about 8 months then is was horrible. Touch screen stopped working all the time, random reboots. So i saw the samsung moment, yay my first android. about a year later and much abuse I got the OG Epic. i loved it. But i ended up cracking the screen after I had it for a year. So i filed my insurance claim and Asusrion sent me another Epic but with a duplicate MEID number. So for their mistake they sent me the E4GT for free. I've had this phone since June (brand new) and I love it.

I think though I may move on to the S3 or Note 2 shortly. I dunno.

Before having an Epic 4G Touch I had the Samsung Captivate on AT&T. This was my first Android phone. I loved it until I got tired of the colored boxes in the app drawer. I learned how to root and immediately flashed CyanogenMod 9. It was awesome! The only things that didn't work at the moment were video recording and a few other stuff I don't remember. Then, in December, my dad told me he was going to get me an Epic 4G Touch. It was the best thing ever (and still is :p). I really want my next phone to be either a Galaxy S4 (I love Touchwiz) or a Nexus.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] ryan0260:
I came from an Evo 4g, and debated on the Epic touch or SG3, and decided on the Epic because of the better camera and external SD card. Now running the blue kuban rom. I'm very happy with this phone, and plan on staying with it for a while
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jpkelly05:
I had the Chocolate 2 for work, and a LG Touch "semi" smart phone for personal. It was locked software, I could surf the web, check email. Anyhoot, I then got an EVO 4G until it dropped- screen broke. Ordred a new screen, but figured I would go in to Sprint to look. And I came out with this. Then I fixed my screen. I don't turn it on anymore. Lol. There is a partial fingerprint on the inside. I also have a Droid 3 from work- I never turn it on, just fwd everything to my phone.

I am waiting for the concept phone "Samsung One" a pen phone. If it comes out next year, it will have a flexible screen that pulls out to become a phone or tablet and harden once energized. The LG Optimistic G's camera is terrible so that's out. Also... still waiting on news about 800MHz LTE next year. So, all in all... I will keep this phone until next year probably. So many good ROMs even if DEV support is low, there are plenty to play with. I may buy a cheep Note 2 eBay/Craigslist but I am saving my upgrade for something spectacular that will rub my feet and blow my mind. Patience is what its about for me.

B4 my epic touch I had an HTC evo shift running cm7 nightlies if I remember Sparksco's kernel my man. But now rocking my own kernel huge thanks to Agat for his guidance was hoping to put some out for the E4GT community but unfortunately my music production and family got me cornered. I was hoping to join the gs3 community with Agat when my upgrade comes through in January 2013 but I been wanting a nexus so this upcoming nexus device will probably be my next device S4 quadcore can't argue wish it was an exynos tho. Nice topic...
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] Mattix724:
To be honest, AT&T never gets quality equipment. I'm glad they wanted a deposit and I did not buy the Skyrocket.

Even for their U-Verse services the equipment is below par. I know, I did tier 1 and tier 2 tech support. I only wish I worked directly for them in Texas. Here in Arizona it's contacted out to other companies.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] sader2202:
I SADER the great came from T-Mobile's Samsung Galaxy S vibrant. I left T-Mobile for Sprint because of true unlimited data, as T-Mobile was capping people at 5gb. I got the E4gt because it was the best phone at that time. I love this phone, to me its one of the best phones out in the market, back then and right now. The S3 sucks, I see to many people with it. The nexus doesn't hold up to this bad boy. IPhone 5, lmao yeah right, what a joke:rolleyes: If I had to trade in this phone for a new phone, I would have to go with the Note 2, LG optimus G, the upcoming Nexus phone, or I might just hold out for the Galaxy S4.

[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jpkelly05:
And now that congress makes unlocking the boot loader illegal beginning next year, but it seems as long as you unlock before that you are good? I am thinking the following now: Note 2, or whatever has the best DEV support before that time- I really don't like LG support and I am not sure Nexus branding will change my mind. If I upgrade after that I may look at W8P or even Firefox- just to keep my options open. If we can't Root we can't ROM and we can't have Hotspot. To me this may be a Android killer. As much as I Hotspot it isn't worth 30, but it is a need. Maybe Sprint should look at fee per Meg or time on. I would pay for it then. Just bummer news!
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
That applies to carrier unlocking not rooting/unlocking bootloaders. And jailbreak only applies to crapple products. Reading comprehension helps when understanding what a politician says. It won't be illegal to root your phone only to unlock it to transfer to another carrier without carrier permission. Tablets that are wifi only won't matter and really who gives a crap, that's like saying you're not allowed to install Linux on your PC cuz it shipped with windoze. It will fail on appeals, for one Google won't want to stifle development in the open source community so they will be the first to fight it just like last time. Besides illegal and wrong have different meanings, it may be illegal to do it but is it wrong? Not in my opinion since you own the device you can legally do what ever you want. Wanna smash it with a hammer that's your choice. It doesn't hurt anyone but your wallet.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] leaderbuilder:
Quite well said. :D
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
SCOTUS already ruled rooting was quite legal, it will be next to impossible to overrule them even via an act of congress. They will just update the ruling making it legal once again.

Edit: what I wanna see is them try to enforce it, what are they gonna do take us all to jail? What a waste of resources :rolleyes:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] jpkelly05:
Figured I would give it awhile to hear what someone else thought. Thanks for the input. Everyone's an expert, except me. I just don't know on this one. Just imagine me the crazy guy going to Sprint.... Giv'me a Note 2 now or die. Ha HA Ha haaaaa --- Robin Williams style.

In all seriousness, Hotspot sucks on this phone so I hope it gets better in my next phone. Anyone know if you can Hotspot LTE easily?

I did read after my earlier post in other News Reports that this is only pertaining to smart-phones switching carriers.

--- If they are at all trying to prevent us from Rooting our phones also- I hope Google does appeal this because I for one, am (rarely) afraid of say the FBI busting down doors looking for pirates that are stealing data (maybe Hotspot- Maybe not). May sound stupid, but it has happened to people stealing music (after evidence was gathered) and it can and probably will happen again in some other form in the future. Not saying to be terrified, but each person should be cautious and aware of their own actions, when the law says it is illegal.

Otherwise better to be informed (correctly in this case) than not at all.

Thank you to EViL-KoNCEPTz and I hit the button too.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
Yea it's about carrier unlocking to switch carriers, although you can still do it with carrier permission. What I don't get is if your contract is up or you buy off contract and don't have service why you would need permission to unlock the device to go to whatever carrier you want. Honestly they seem to just be making stupid new laws that will be so hard to enforce and such a waste of resources no agency will want to enforce them. Its all cuz apple wants it illegal to jailbreak iPhones and ipads. They really need to stop using the court system to enforce their nazi policies, they waste so much time an resources on petty **** its ridiculous. :thumbdown:
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] 131un7:
Before this I had a a Samsung ( I forgot the name but it was the 1ghz slider from cricket) which I promptly rooted and my obsession started. My girlfriend was actually the one who picked out the et4g's before I researched I was gonna get a Droid. I'm so glad she convinced me to go for the Epic touch. I'm pretty sure my next phone will be the note 2 but not sure since my contract isn't up till Dec 2013 I'm wondering what the future holds I do know one thing for sure . I'm buying from best buy with geek squad protection cuz I've broken this phone 4 time in a year and sprint would've tripped if I was rooted/rom'd but best buy could care less. Never worried about Odin count or triangles crept that its ugly :cool::D:cool:

Funny thing is, I was just looking at all my previous phones and realized they were all Samsung (not intended) I had the GALAXY S Epic prior to this. My brother just bought a GSIII and gave this phone to me as a gift. Before the Epic, I had the Samsung Rogue over at Verizon and the Samsung phone that was a flip phone but rotated Luke a landscape computer too, prior to the Rogue.

I guess I just love Samsung and never noticed it. In the future (like a month) I plan on getting the GALAXY Note II, or the GALAXY S III....probably the latter, because I love to root my phones and have that stock Google experience.

My first smartphone was the Samsung Fascinate. I originally wanted the BlackBerry but since it was sold out, "settled" for the Galaxy. That phone changed my life. The only problem was that it was running eclair 2.1 with no flash support. I wanted flash so I went to Google for the answer. That is where I found XDA. Been rooting and flashing ever since.

I had to leave Verizon and my JellyBean'ed Fascinate (gave it to my daughter as a media device) and "ported" myself to Sprint. No longer a noob, I look for phones that get developers support. Since I had to upgrade my wife's phone as well we recently decided on the Epic 4G Touch. This phone is awesome. It only took me less than a day to root. *flash addict*.

Anyway, since I just got this phone, I am stuck for a while, but my next phone will be either a nexus or galaxy. Right now though, my sights are set on the Nexus 10. I will be in Android heaven then.

I just upgrade to cm 9.1 from CM 7 and everything works great except that my battery went from lasting 2 days to lasting less then 3 hours. I have been searching the forums and have lost 40% battery in 30 minutes of doing so. I know my phone is having a deep sleep problem but that. Doesn't explain the massive drain while on. I've tried wiping stats a few times tried different kernels I just don't know what else to do.

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen0s:
Hey guys, after recent stock JB update XXDLIH (PHE) my camera and Screenshot sound effects are extremely loud. I tried to lower system sound volume but that doesn't help so I went into system/media/ui and renamed shuttle.ogg & shuttle_multiple.ogg. It did work for single shot but I can still hear the loud sound effect when using burst mode and taking screenshot. Also where is the sound file for Screenshot?

Thanks for your help.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen0s:
Anyone knows?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] TheRealFelix0212:
Mute on Notificationbar:D
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ficti0n851:
Go into /system/media/ui and play each sound to see what's what and then just remove all file permissions.

Use a file manager if you don't know command prompt.

I do that on a lot of UI audio files such as boot sound and volume up annoying beep when its maxed out.

I also have no camera sounds.

Never had any problems.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen0s:
Thank you, found it but I'm still getting burst shot noise :/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ficti0n851:
Screenshot sound is camera_click.ogg or Camera_click_short.ogg

Just go through the ui folder with music player and you will find it.

Maybe Shutter_multiple.ogg for burst?
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen0s:
Is system/media/audio/ui only folder these system sound effect exists? Because I can't silence burst mode sound, I even renamed the folder and yet I still get burst mode sound effect.... wth ;/
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] coolhof:
I have no sounds at al for my camera and screenshot.

I have delete the the .ogg from the media/system/audio/ui

the next sounds i have delete:

auto_focus_error.ogg

cam_start.ogg

cam_stop.ogg

camera_click_short.ogg

[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] zen0s:
No, tested all the sound. Nothing in that folder makes shuttle sound effect. This is very odd and confusing x.X how can it play sound effects when there is no sound file.... Screw it... I guess putting on mute is only way for burst mode.

i changed to Omega rom and all camera shutter sound are off including burst mode

How do you browse to a certain folder with the stock music player? Can't find a way.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ficti0n851:
Don't think you can. You need to be rooted and using something like root explorer.
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] btemtd:
Its definatley clear that some S3 MUST be different , Yes we do have all these files listed YES it does take care of the 1 shutter click sound. NO it does not take care of the burst mode sound. I am still trying to figure out where the stupid noise is coming from. I have listened to every single file in the directory I have no more camera sounds. So where is the burst mode sound coming from? I cannot beleive i cannot find an answer to this question

I haven a i9300 and an I9305 both have exactly the same files in the same folder and both cannot get rid of burst mode
[Galaxy S III Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] frankquattrone:
Does anyone know which sound is the one for the screen shot on the S3? It is really loud. I've disabled every single ogg file in the ui folder that is even remotely related to the camera sound (shutter, shutter_multiple, camera_click, camera_click_short). Testing one by one, Shutter.ogg is the sound for the camera taking a picture. Thanks.

Sorry for the noon question but what do these custom modems do for me?

Those are the different radios from different leaks. Use whatever works best for you. :cool:
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] shimp208:
Different modems offer different performance for some people but everyone's device it slightly different so as prdog1 said it's a matter of trying them out and finding out what works best (Make sure to make a backup before flashing and trying out any new modems). You can find a list of modems for the Verizon Galaxy S3 here.
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] Chuckleb0ne:
What kind of performance are you talking about?
[Verizon Samsung Galaxy S III] apacseven:
Mostly in regards to signal strength and throughput on data connections.

I keep getting an issue when i got to flash the Hell Fire jellybean rom for my tmobile galaxy s III. the installation begins but then i receive an error message saying

i have searched the forums for people having the same issue but nothing for the galaxy s III. I do believe this is based on cm10 if that could be causing an issue but im not sure, im new to flashing on samsung devices. any help would be awesome thank you

Have you ever modded your buil.prop for google wallet or anything else?

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] forgot2wipe:
When I got this error, I flashed back to stock then rooted and installed the rom i wanted.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If you're not using a stock rom, the build prop may be from another phone, depending on what rom you're using.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] xxxbuggyxxx:
right now im using the frostyjb rom, do you suggest i flash a stock rom then try flashing the hellfire rom like forgot2wipe had mentioned?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
That's probably the quickest way to a solution at this point. Or first you could try a different recovery. I'm pretty sure the build.prop in frosty will be fine, so it could be the recovery causing a problem.

Up to you which you try first.

ok i will look into trying both

[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Try updating your recovery
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: a sure fix

This guide will get your phone back up and running properly.

Doing anything else will just prolong your problems.

This is a easy and sure way to fix your problem - Here is s step by step guide:

After following these instructions you will have the latest official stock-rooted Tmobile T999 Samsung S3 Jellybean v4.1.2 rom

installed then if you like you can flash any of these custom roms found here in this T999 Tmobile threads.

Download the newest pre-rooted Samsung Galaxy S3 T999 Jellybean v4.1.2 rom: T999_UVDMD5

After downloading make a folder on your computer's desktop and unzip the

file using Winzip or 7zip so the .TAR file is in the new folder you just made.

Download and extract Odin into the same folder you made containing the TAR file

Here is the link for Odin: http://d-h.st/Q14

•	Download ODIN which is required for flashing the stock rooted firmware (a windows app)

•	Download the Odin Flash firmware for T999 Tmobile then copy it to the same folder as Odin

•	Run Odin by double clicking the Odin.exe within the same folder as the TAR file you extracted

•	Turn off your phone and boot into DOWNLOAD MODE (Volume Down + Home + Power Hold

until phone powers up, then release and press Volume Up to enter Download Mode)

•	Once in Download Mode, connect the USB/Charger cable to the phone and plug into the USB port on your computer.

•	You should now see a COM** port listed toward the top-left of Odin (under ID:COM)

•	Click on the PDA button in the middle-right area of Odin.

•	Browse to and select the Firmware you downloaded (TAR file)

•	Make sure Auto-Reboot and F. Reset Time are the only options checked and that PDA is the only other thing checked.

•	TRIPLE CHECK your settings and that you have selected the correct firmware for your model phone and are using the correct options.

•	If you are using a laptop, make absolutely sure you are plugged in, or if on battery, that it is charged enough and will not go into sleep mode during flash.

•	Click Start to begin the flash. This will take a while, so be patient!

•	Once complete, in the top-left box in Odin, it will say PASS and the phone should have automatically rebooted.

•	You may unplug the phone and close Odin if you wish.

•	Wait at least 5-10 minutes for the system to boot the first time and then build its cache!

•	(It may seem to hang during boot, this is normal and you must be patient!!!)

Good Luck!
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wewonk:
I'm sorry I don't completely understand what you mean by that. Are you saying I need a new clockworkmod
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
You can try that.

Btw, do you have signature verification off?
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wewonk:
It was off. Also that way he told me can that work with the Pac-man ROM
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] serio22:
Most likely. Just update it through ROM manager, or flash twrp recovery through goo manager
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] DocHoliday77:
If that doesn't work try Mobile Odin. Get pro from play store or the free version here on xda. Should be easy to find.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] wewonk:
So the flash work and i have the new root, so can i use any rom now.
[T-Mobile, Samsung Galaxy SIII] Misterjunky:
re: flashing roms

Yes, any rom which is intended to be used with the T999 phones only.

I would suggest that you stay away from any of the CM10/AOKP/AOSP and any of the PORTED roms.

Most of those roms are intended for developers and other people who want and like to experiment with their phones.

If you like experimenting with your phone, then by all means go ahead and flash those roms.

So I would suggest to only flash roms which are based on the Tmobile Samsung Touchwiz T999 Jellybean 4.1.1 or 4.1.2 firmware(roms).

That way you will not have any of those famous error 7's and or a lot of the other errors and issues which so many people here in xda have had.

Good luck!
