Pics not showing but if its from an online chat disregard anything your friend was told. Customer service has no insight into upcoming services. Our store and regional rep last said we're looking at a 2012 release. Hes been dead on about everything hes told me to date and seeing how the test area in chesterfield has been terminated im inclined to believe hes probably right. If tmobile helps bail out clearwire then maybe itll come faster but Detroits very far down the list of major cities getting 4g.
[EVO 4G General] neopolotin75:
We've been lacking here in Indianapolis also but over the past month and half Ive spoken to sprint, IT and several people have spoken with the in store resp and Ive even talked with an out of state technician and they all have said that we are getting it by the end of 2010. They've said that they are planning on all their major markets to have it running by Jan 2011. Sprint is majority owner in Clearwire but rumor has it T-mobile is going to help start backing them also. Clearwire seems to have a plan worked out for their short comings that was reported a couple months ago but its unclear how they got it worked out just yet from what Ive seen. My guess is Sprint dumped more money in with Verizon flipping the switch on LTE a couple days ago.
[EVO 4G General] J4mm1nJ03:
Ah, I'll try reuploading when I get home. Apparently the XDA app doesn't like PNG's.

But yes, it was via CS chat, which is why I'm hopeful but skeptical. Basically, it said he "successfully looked into the Detroit area and sees that there are approximately 6 future towers planned for the Detroit area and that it can be expected to be up and running early next year."

It is a bit hard to believe, seeing that this year is almost over and because we haven't seen any other evidence at all, but it would be great if true.

If T-Mo does end up using Clear's WiMax, I've heard it's likely that you'll be able to roam on them with Sprint at the very least, so that's a start.

As far as the LTE thing goes, I heard that Sprint was planning on using it but was still going to carry out their full WiMax roadmap, so we'll see.
[EVO 4G General] boilerroom86:
I called sprint level 2 tech support about another issue and was told Nationwide Coverage of 4g by March 2011. Thats so redonkulus to me - hell i dont even believe that for a Detroit Roll out
[EVO 4G General] Spiderman313:
If Verizon gets 4g in Detroit before Sprint then I'm switching to Evil Red.
[EVO 4G General] detcup4evr:
So the tech said nationwide 4g by march 2011, that sounds like sprint might need some magic to make that happen, oh wait they got david blaine, feb 7 could be interesting, and fit the march timeline
[EVO 4G General] wingzfan:
Not to be an ass but this is why you dont trust any Sprint rep you talk to. 4G is still not available in Indi or even released anywhere else for that matter.

The last released market was L.A 2 months ago and should cause concern to anyone expecting 4G anytime soon. Ive said it before and I stand by my comments that 4G will NOT hit Detroit before 2012. I'll be curious to see what the actual Feb. 7th announcement is but I can almost guarantee its not about Nationwide 4G.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
My friend's co-worker's sister's dog told me that you shouldn't trust hear-say nor anything a customer service rep says about the future.

I would trust that dog.
[EVO 4G General] erikgrad:
I think I know that dog too...he keeps getting into my garbage and humping the neighbors birdbath.:mad:

Don't trust that dog, Detroit is getting Clearwire 4g in the next six months*.:)

*I have no knowledge as to if or when we will get WiMax 4g, so I am basing my data on instinct alone. Dan Hesse did a keynote speech to the Detroit Economic Club a few weeks ago, I would think that is a good sign? I believe that Clearwire may STILL be holding out for government money (grant, stimulus) to bring 4g to the poor neighborhoods.

[HD7 General] PaullikesWINMO:
okay nothing wrong with this phone or WP7 OS. I get lots of compliments and everyone I show the phone to says "wow nice screen". However I didn't do my homework and since this is a T-Mobile phone and I am on FIDO in Canada, the 3G bands are different and I can only get EDGE to work. I was considering going with the Samsung Focus (AT&T or Rogers) since the GSM bands are identical, but I just read in another thread that AT&T might be getting an HTC HD7. So if anyone in Toronto is looking for a real nice phone that works wonderful with Wind Mobile or Mobilecity, then check local Kijiji ads. I also like the fact that if I do go with the Focus I can tether. Sigh... such hard decisions....
[Focus Accessories] markcr:
I bought an OEM Wall Charger from Ebay designed for the Galaxy S (think it uses the same battery and the connector is MicroUSB on both). Unfortunately the Focus doesn't seem to recognize the charger at all (when I plug it in, it doesn't do anything and the battery diagnonsis menu doesn't pick anything up either)

Anyone know if I got a bad charger or is there some reason it might be incompatible? I found one website which lists the model as compatible with the Focus (using the part# from the charger: ATADU10JBE):

www .daydeal.com/product.php?productid=37356 (remove space after www)

Unfortunately I don't have a Galaxy S to find out if I got a defective charger or if I just ordered the wrong part (don't want to file a complaint if it's my mistake - wasn't an expensive part)

The regular wallcharger I got with the Focus works fine as does a car charger I bought from Ebay - hoping to get an extra charger to leave at work.
[Focus Accessories] wrxdrunkie:
I use my genuine epic 4g charger all the time with my focus, works great.
[Focus Accessories] foxbat121:
I have both Focus and Captivate (Galaxy S varient) and the OEM chargers are the exact same and interchangable.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Starzboy77:
So I was really dumb and for some reason tried to install the some older wiimax (unknown version, file name is "new wiimax") update (when everything was already working well and I might have already had that Wiimax version) and now my 4g and Wifi don't work at all.

When I try to turn on 4g or wifi the toggle just grays out and hangs and I have to reboot to try again. The phone itself doesn't hang, just the row to toggle 4g and/or wifi. Sometimes it will say failed but usually it just greys out and hangs.

Now I am rooted and currently have Myns Rom RLS 4 installed. I've tried to install the latest wiimax version (26023) but it says error: bad wimax.zip file?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaEVO:
Basic

Well let's start with the basics. When you boot into recovery is s-off? Did you make a stable nandroid backup? Have you done any of the 4g or wifi diagnostics? When you do your diagnostics go ahead and post the results.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sLiKK:
I have used gReader pro and the free version on my vibrant. Both are really slow especially while updating. My phone usually hangs in the middle of updating this app for feeds. The developer says that vibrant users need to use lag fix to correct the problem. How do I go about solving this problem.

gReader

I am not sure how to fix your issue, but google has their own reader app in the market now. You could try that. Sorry I cant be more of a help.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] sLiKK:
I have used the official google app for google reader as well. As a matter of fact I still have it installed...but like the gReader app better due to its interactive interface and small size font which enables me to see more feeds on the screen. Also the official app uses external browser to fully read a feed which I dislike.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] joe.kerwin:
if the official one is performing better, the app must be bogged down. complain in the market, or email the developer of the app. they do listen most of the time. you might get results in an update.

edit: and by complain, I mean report your problem in a respectful manner.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] SimeonAS89:
I went from gReader to the official Google Reader app and I love the official much more. NewsRob isn't my favorite either. I'd suggest trying the official one for a bit and seeing how you like it. I'm a huge RSS fan so this was my own personal solution.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epakrat75:
I liked neither apps so I've been using FeedR from the market. It's fast and allows offline reading to a degree. Even though it's not free, it's inexpensive and totally worth it IMO. It reads straight from the Google Reader website. If you've already got your RSS feeds setup there, it can just import them after you login. I'd say try it for 24 hours and refund it if you don't like it. Before anyone asks, no I'm not the developer or of any affiliation.

Here is the gingerbread keyboard - mostly compliments of AndroidBruce. I got another version working from my own SDK - but it is really slow compared to this one for some reason. MD5's on the so and apk are the same ????? oh well here is this one if anyone wants it.

Flash as an update.zip - this was only tested by me on stock dk28.

To enable go to settings > Locale and Text > check Android Keyboard.

I had to go up to select input method 3 times to get it it show up in the list...

Known issues:

Seems that user dictionary doesn't work...i'll look into it.

Perks:

it's multitouch, and best of all its not swype (I feel a "Swype is awesome" remark coming) :rolleyes:
[Epic 4G Android Development] ragnarokx:
Differences from this version?
[Epic 4G Android Development] Ihaveanepic:
I flashed it. Its just the stock android keyboard with multi touch. I'll keep my swype :)

Thanks anyways!

probably nothing. But I am currently working on getting the dictionary working...not sure if he is or not. ;)

[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
I don't think this counts as an app or theme. Its a PORT that needs continuing DEVELOPMENT to function 100%.

Anyways, the other one I tried made me have to restore because its only for deodexed ROMs. I don't wanna install a rom. I like stock. Will it make me have to restore again?

Ps, I know you said its on stock, butdo you mean the .tar stock or acs rom (which is also considered stock deodexed I think...idk lol)
[Epic 4G Android Development] A_Flying_Fox:
Nevermind. I just said screw it andtried and it didn't give me the opion to choose the keyboard, just swype and samsung keypad were there, but I disabled swype and went to google search and the keyboard was there looking and responding great! I never used theonscreen keyboard cuz swype is butt and the default android kb is boring lol

Thanks for porting the app. Hopefully, all features will be working soon.

I'd say that with this new keyboard, all of the custom keyboards are now largely obsolete. It also renders the hardware keyboard less useful than before, although it's still useful (I'm using the hardware keyboard right now) for longer messages.

I have a HTC Hero running Nfinites .7 ROM with a 8Gig class 2 SD Card.

I just bought a 16gig class 6 card and would like to use it in the phone. This is the first time I have used A2SD, I understand how to format the new SD card to make it work but am curious about transfer from the old card to the new one for the Apps. Is there an easy way to do that?

I know for the music and other stuff in the normal part of the SD card will transfer just with my windows desktop but I know you can't transfer the linux stuff on a windows PC.

Is the easiest thing to do just to redownload all the apps with App Brain?

Hello, I am currently using Quantum Rom 2.0 but I switch all the time. I have flashed the dt a2sd and when I try to run it, it always fails. After searching the actual thread about this I see that some mods have to be done to the kernel to get it to work on Epic 4g. Also I see that the creator of ViperRom has gotten it to work. Can anyone explain to me what needs to be done to enable this to run on mine, and any rom? What needs to be there/changed/ and how? Thank you :D
[Epic 4G General] odub303:
I'm not certain that it works properly on ViperRom. I and a couple others were not able to run it properly, but for some reason could not get any answers in the thread. I don't think anyone has it properly implemented in their Froyo roms yet.

Bad White voted.
[myTouch 4G General] ArcticWolf91:
Oh wow I didn't realize the difference was so pronounced. I might buy the MyTouch 4G is there any way for me to make sure I get the good display? Like something I should look for while I'm at the store?
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
It is very easy just hold down on the home screen and select widget then select clock, right arrow over to the HTC clock as shown in the picture. Then just tilt the device to different angles you can set the brightness to auto or up a little if you want. If you see it clear like in the bottom pictures it is one of the better displays.

Since you are buying a new device demand you want one with a good display. If they give you any trouble send them to the Official MT4G forum their is a thread on there too.
[myTouch 4G General] daewond3r:
I never really checked until now. Mine looks good at the same angle as the second set of pics, which makes me glad.

However, I will admit my colors are kinda warm. I wish my whites were brighter.
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
Wow there is more good black ones than I thought. Btw did your black ones come with 2.2.1 from factory?
[myTouch 4G General] $pitacular1:
Had the inferior black, dropped it and shattered it about 7 days in.. was devastated but had insurance.

Filed claim, received the superior black... not happy about shelling out $130.00 for a replacement but very pleased it's a better phone.
[myTouch 4G General] mgymnop:
To be honest I still have no idea which one of those I have. My colors look very vibrant when I look at it directly. When I tilt it a lot then the colors are washed out a bit but who is holding the phone like that? My laptop screen has the same problem.
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
Well this is not true if you have the device on your desk in front of you you are looking at an angle and the colors are washed out. Plus the overall contrast of whites and blacks on the good display are better.

To some people it will not mater, but to some it will.
[myTouch 4G General] btbuck1:
sounds like you have the good one. the bad ones color is washed out period. and they fade out at even the slightest angle. The good one does fade out, but only at extreme angles.
[myTouch 4G General] cangri87:
Same here... :confused:
[myTouch 4G General] mgymnop:
Ignorance is bliss. If it is so difficult to find out for us if we have the good or the bad one it is probably anyway not significant or we have anyway the good screens:-)
[myTouch 4G General] bobsbbq:
It is very easy just compare yours to the pics on the bottom picture in the OP and if your device when tilted the launcher bar stays black and your clock digits are black and not washed out in the middle and top and bottom then you have a good one. Congratulations
[myTouch 4G General] setzer715:
Good screen (at least to me looks better than my Nexus One) and comparing with the attached pics it does not washout at all, shipped with 2.2. Upgraded to 2.2.1 after a few hours of receiving. Currently running Iced Glacier but screen looks same stock.
[myTouch 4G General] ckisgen:
i have found these threads interesting....by all the standards that I can find - I've got the sharper/better display. I sort of have a hard time with the whole HTC clock widget 'test' or whatever but my viewing angles are good, my blacks are deep, my settings bar is DEFINITELY solid gray from all angles .. no perrywinkle here. i have zero complaints about my display ... i had wondered why everyone was **bleep** on here about it ..

but the interesting thing (compared to what the 'common knowledge' seems to be on these threads both here and at the Tmobile forum) is that I bought my phone on 11/5 .. the day after it came out, came with 2.2 and was made in Taiwan.

so either the gray/perrywinkle deal isn't 100% fool proof and my own eyes and judgement are off OR some of the older/original phones made in Taiwan have the 'better' display ..

FYI - i bought mine at a retail T mobile store at my local mall.
[myTouch 4G General] vw671:
I thought all the phones were made in Taiwan...Mine was and has the crappy display.

[myTouch 4G General] Kienz:
So is this a hardware issue? Or simply an issue with some internal settings?
[myTouch 4G General] btbuck1:
Seems to be differen't screens that HTC is sourcing from. The phone's all have identical roms, so that's not it.

This isn't the first time HTC or any cell phone or CEM has sources parts from differen't OEM's. But rarily is there such a disparity in them.
[myTouch 4G General] mgymnop:
I know this issue from the Nexus One. They had these issues with purple screens between older and new batches of N1s and there was a clear difference between the t-mobile N1s and the ATT N1 regarding the purple screen. I think the screens are maybe from the same manufacturer but they have a range of tolerance what is junk and what is accepted as "normal" screen. This is maybe the reason why we cannot pinpoint it to one country, supplier or batch.
