[Epic 4G General] Coucher:
Is there anyway to get the instant rebate instead of mail in rebate via a Sprint Store on the Epic?

There's a few options for reserving/pre-order and I'm struggling with which to do. Of course, I'd like to have the phone in hand on 8/31 and not have to wait, but really don't want to have to deal with a mail in rebate. Why can't Sprint, the actual carrier, do an instant rebate like all the retailers!?!?! :confused: :rolleyes:

Sprint Store ($249.99 after all discounts/rebates) - Get the phone on 8/31, no wait. Bill my account so it's not the full amount right then. Mail in rebate hassle.

https://sprint.timetrade.com/tc/ReservePhone.do?method=load&postalCode=

Best Buy ($255.49 after all discounts/rebates w/shipping) - Phone ships on 8/31, wouldn't get it until 15-21 days later. Instant rebate. Can't just have my account billed.

http://www.bestbuy.com/site/Samsung...id=1218230592078&skuId=1168955&contract_desc=

Radio Shack ($259.98 :mad: after all discounts/rebates w/shipping) - Phone ships on 8/31, wouldn't get it until 15-21 days later. Instant rebate. Can't just have my account billed.

http://radioshackwireless.com/eCommerce/SpecialOffer.aspx?cid=25578_188a707215054d19a265f220605dee3e

CellularDeals.com ($239.99 :eek: after all discounts/rebates w/shipping) - Phone ships on 8/31, wouldn't get it until 15-21 days later. Instant rebate. Can't just have my account billed.

[Epic 4G General] radar5:
why can you not get your phone 15-21 days later when ordering from BB or RS? Also, why not just go into the store and get it same day like the Sprint Store?
[Epic 4G General] Coucher:
I'm not sure what you're trying to say..:confused:

If you pre-order from BB or RS, you cannot pick it up in store.

If you pre-order online, whether it be through BB, RS, etc, the phone ships on the release date, 8/31, so you won't get the phone until 15-21 days later according to the shipping estimates, but the upside is no mail in rebate as all the retailers offer the instant rebate. If you reserve the phone at your local Sprint store and walk in on the release date to pick it up, upside is you get the phone that day, downside is that you have to screw with the mail in rebate....which prompted my original question, is there any way to get the instant rebate from the Sprint store option.

It comes down to which sacrifice you're making....dealing with the mail in rebate to get the phone sooner, or having to wait 2-3 weeks for the phone to ship to get the instant rebate. I'd rather not do either which is why I asked.
[Epic 4G General] radar5:
I just don't understand how they could ship the phone on 8/31 and it take 15-21 days. Maybe they mean 15-21 days from today you'll recieve it.

Why can't you go into a Best Buy store and buy the phone with instant rebate right there and not wait for shipping?
[Epic 4G General] Vandam500:
Sigh... no instant rebate via Sprint, period. Why can't you just stop by a Radio Shack or Best Buy. I doubt its going to be as popular as the Evo and probably have more in stock too.
[Epic 4G General] Coucher:
Both BB & RS ship via FedEx Standard Ground, so depending on from where they're shipping, it could take quite a while to get to you.

BB is not offering in store pickup, only shipping.
[Epic 4G General] casual864:
Hold up, how about RS? Are they offering in-store pick up? 15-21 days is a long period.
[Epic 4G General] radar5:
Shipping from Union, NJ to San Diego, CA (across the US) will take less than a week by FedEx Express Saver (shipping Monday, arriving Thursday). I don't know where you are shipping to, but it's never taken me 15-21 days in shipping time by FedEx.

that is through their website. Try going into a store and asking.
[Epic 4G General] kgold708:
Coucher, unless you live in Alaska or Hawaii or elsewhere outside the conUS ground shipping doesn't take 15 days. IDK maybe the legal dept. Made them say that on the website.
[Epic 4G General] kgold708:
OK so I actually read your screen capture. When they say " ships in 15-21 business days" they are saying 15-21 days and THEN they ship it. If they say elsewhere in the ordering process that it ships same day, then it should.

Its not your fault, I'm prob. dating myself here but when I went to school they had a course called reading

comprehension

, prob. fell victom to budget cuts.
[Epic 4G General] yglup:
Actually I just preordered from radioshack and I pick the phone up in store the day its released. And what's funny is 8/20/10 is the pickup date, although the 31st is the date releaased.
[Epic 4G General] Pops_G:
Best Buy and Radio Shack definitely offer in-store pickup. You need to preorder it at the store, not on the website.
[Epic 4G General] DevinXtreme:
I don't think you're understanding what they are trying to tell you.

Physically walk into a Radioshack and reserve your phone. On the 31st, you'll be able to physically walk into the same Radioshack and pick it up. Completely ignore the online part.
[Epic 4G General] cyberwired:
I pre-ordered my Epic today at my local best buy store.

I go in on the 31st to pick it up, at the store for 249.99

Couldn't be easier...
[Epic 4G General] Vandam500:
Exactly. Don't know why everyone is making this into such a issue when its a non-issue...
[Epic 4G General] LordLugard:
Dude, you're wrong. You can go into bby on launch day and get one if in stock. Obviously the placeholder on their site is reflecting a product that hasn't been released yet, standard procedure for every product not yet released but placed on the site.
[Epic 4G General] jspielberg:
I just put myself on the reservation list at BB. I had to put down a $50 deposit and in return they gave me a $50 gift card and a spot on the list. He said they would have them available on the 31st, but he wanted a contact number in case they came in early.
[Epic 4G General] JUST2SUAVE:
sprint if you dont have the money on hand
[Epic 4G General] Vertig0:
If you call Telesales and tell them that you want a new phone but you dont want to deal with rebates, they will work with you. I got my wife's that way but im getting mine at BB... can wait!!!
[Epic 4G General] willquil1:
Okay I have a question and I'm not sur eif I posted it on the correct thread, but whatever. What is the full retail price for the Epic?? Because I'm seeing different prices, but I spoke to a Sprint Rep today and she told me that she believe it is $449.99. Other sites are saying $500.00. I have a $75 upgrade and I'm making sure I have everything saved up to get it on Tuesday. Thanks
[Epic 4G General] xenx:
I haven't seen an official price, but I've heard $500 as well. Considering the Evo was $450 w/o contract, and the Epic is an extra $50, $500 sounds right.
[Epic 4G General] willquil1:
@xenx thanks
[Epic 4G General] samsterman:
My Sprint store claims to be offering an instant rebate instead of a mail-in rebate. That would put it on an even footing with other retailers such as RS or BB ($249 plus tax OTD).

I don't know if you could get the Sprint store to put the phone cost on your Sprint account instead of paying for it at the point of sale. One could argue that if paying $100 less upfront and giving up $100 later is worth it, then paying another $249 less upfront and giving it up later would also make sense.

Good luck!
[Epic 4G General] entropism:
It's 499.99 for Sprint's full price.
[Epic 4G General] GrandMstrBud:
So 499 at sprint if your not due for an upgrade? I guess that's not to bad, my upgrade is not until February and I want a good android phone.
[Epic 4G General] spongaweb:
Lady on the phone from the store told me

"We are only gonna have 20 on hand and make sure you have $300 on hand ($250+tax), you will be billed next month for this months service"

How do you disperse a large crowd of people seeking the phone?
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
Mod plz delete. The thread is remade now . less garbage in it :)
[Wildfire Android Development] kalkin:
Hi,

That's sound great. Will test it as sun as 8 come home.

Btw: its there any chance that I will completely brick my wildfire?

Kalkin-
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
I realy dont think so, but i leave no guarantie! if i had an wildfire i would have tryd it my self. I realy think i would have root on a wildfire if i just had it in my hand for a while :)
[Wildfire Android Development] adeadrat:
any tried this one yet ? I sooo wan to try but im not sure as it could brick my phone.. if it does.. I get no warranty rigth(pretty sure im not)? :P
[Wildfire Android Development] Gertt000:
Doesn't work (I think)..

When I try to flash the recovery provided by the ROM Manager, I get the verification failed error and it stops.. Just like with the guide Paul from modaco posted before he pulled it because it wasn't working..
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
damn!

realy hoped it should work. anyone of you running linux?

maybe i have to pick a phone out from a shop, try to root it and then return it unrooted.
[Wildfire Android Development] Gertt000:
Yeah, shame really..

Any idea why the verification would fail?

Not running linux, but I could set up a VM if you need something specific from someone with a wildfire.. (Though I probably would need detailed instructions as to what you want me to do, been a long time since I last used ubuntu:D)
[Wildfire Android Development] kalkin:
danne_jo:

I have a Gentoo and an Ubuntu on a machines running, and i can setup anyone distri in virtualbox. What do you need?

I also can setup you a $YOUR_DISTRI in VirtualBox for you and give you ssh with root.
[Wildfire Android Development] kalkin:
Btw can't find a Rom Manager in the market. Tried everything RomManager rommanager Rom Manager
[Wildfire Android Development] Dark_Balor:
You can have it with appbrain and fast web installer.
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
i will keep looking into this!

but its hard when i dont have a wildfire in my hands my self.

im sorry if i gave you false hope on this.

Am adding rom manager to this post:
[Wildfire Android Development] kalkin:
Thanks for the rom manager :)
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
Now then recovery is comming to wildfire i have remade a rooted rom.
[Wildfire Android Development] MartinEve:
Hi,

Just tested this - bug at line 13 on trying to set permissions of DATA - probably related to a2sd - did I need to partition my sdcard first?

Best,

Martin
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
Row 13 in the script does this:

set_perm 0 0 0777 DATA:a2sd

So i belive as you self belive it depends on your SD-card. Try to partition you card. To something similar to this:

swap = 0mb

ext = 256-512mb

upgrade ext2 to ext3 (if you have this option)

and then wipe your phone, and reflash. if it doesent work we go from there. But i cant see anything woring with the script if wildfire work as the other HTC models.

Thanx for trying. if we dont manage to make this work i will make a rom that doesent use app2sd at start.

Regards Daniel

*Edit* did found that bugg! :) But you should realy have the sd partionated as i wrote before anyway :)

Will remake rom right now.
[Wildfire Android Development] MartinEve:
Great - if you post it up I'll test later!

If we can sort all hardware issues it will be a great start for other devs.

[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
Updated rom to v2. Tested and verifyed install script. :)
[Wildfire Android Development] rolks:
odexed or deodexed. whats different? i am new on this. thank you.

ps don't hit in face please.

ps ps how to flash?
[Wildfire Android Development] MartinEve:
You can't until root is generally available.

I'm testing this now -- currently copying files at 50% and all is well ;P
[Wildfire Android Development] MartinEve:
Ok, flashed ROM, installation succeeds.

However, the ROM will not boot. Stuck at HTC loading screen.

I am unable to diagnose the problem because, at present, there is no /system/bin/sh executable, so can't connect via adb to see the log (even adb logcat relies on this).

I would recommend symlinking bash to /system/bin/sh so this can be done.

I've accidentally just started restoring a nandroid backup, but when that's done will wipe, re-apply update, symlink sh -> bash and try again.
[Wildfire Android Development] MartinEve:
Ok:

(as well as the sh symlink, as above).

Cheers,

[Wildfire Android Development] MartinEve:
Apologies for triple posting, but this is the best way to separate out runs.

Its hardly impossible to do this whitout a proper device my self :)

It should give busybox +x auto.

This script is called from update-script in the end of install "installbusybox"

#!/system/bin/sh
cd /system/xbin
/system/bin/chmod 755 busybox
./busybox --install -s /system/xbin

Did you partition your sd card? and you did a wipe before installing?
[Wildfire Android Development] danne_jo:
here is another test then. i did a total remake and just added root + busybox

you can look in the zip. goto META-INF/com/google/android/ open update-script

Row 72

#Test START

symlink /system/bin/sh SYSTEM:bin/bash

set_perm 0 0 04755 SYSTEM:xbin/busybox

#Test END

and sligtly under you will find a row what run program to install busybox

But i cant anderstand why we need those, its working fine on tatto, hero, desire when i dont add those extra lines.

[Wildfire Android Development] Trism:
What would happen if I renamed the ROM to update.zip and ran it from recovery? Are we talking major brickage here or would it just not work?
[Galaxy S I9000 Android Development] artronnie:
OK, this is a noob :confused: guide on how to have your own Swype language on any firmware. There might be an easier way, but this is all I know.

This might be helpful for people using more than one language who wants to try new firmware from different region which might not have his/her local language/dictionary.

Requirements:

1. Rooted phone. I use this.

2. Busybox installed (i don't think it is really necessary). You can download the 1.17.1 version from here

3. Root explorer (download from market)

How to:

1. First, you have to have firmware from your own region. Usually, you'll have your local language/dictionary on this firmware. Since I came from south east asia, I use DXJF4.

2. Now, using root explorer, click the Mount R/W first.

3. Go to system - app and then copy swype.apk (hold long, choose copy)

4. Copy it somewhere else. I copied mine to external SD card (sdcard - sd).

5. Extract copied swype by hold long - copy. Root explorer will extract them all to sdcard/extracted.

6. Go to sdcard/extracted folder, click on Swype, assets, then files. Now, you want to copy ALL of the files in this folder to your external SD card.

7. Now, after you secured the earlier swype.apk (let's called this original swype) and all the contents on sdcard/extracted/swype/assets/files, you can proceed to flash your new firmware (i used DDJG4).

8. After flashing new firmware, get it rooted and installed root explorer again.

9. Using root explorer, copy all the files on

sdcard/extracted/swype/assets/files/

to

data/data/com.swype.android.inputmethod/swypedata/

Overwrite everything (if asked).

10. Then, still using root explorer, click your earlier Swype.apk (original swype) and chose install.

11. Voila, you'll have your "original" sets of language on the "foreign" firmware.

Let me know if this works for you ;)
