Very interesting information. Thanks for pointing it out. I see on my Evo HTC IQ running and always wondered what it was. I have always favored stock/OE, albeit rooted and deodexed ROMs. With this fact alone I would rather run a ROM with an Xtreme Kernel.

I read on the site you list that the data is collected even offline. I presume the phone would later upload the queued data.

Thanks for the good work. Cheers.

Everyone at my sprint store has rooted epics and heros, and a evo or two. The guy who sold me my hero told me to root it. Bought my epic 3rd party though.
[Epic 4G General] swanysto:
I am trying to understand why you took it back for the reason you did. You can update the PRL by just putting it in airplane mode, than taking it back off airplane mode. Not being able to update your PRL from that screen does not mean the phone does not work, or there is a problem.
[Epic 4G General] lrosenman:
I tried that MULTIPLE times. It would not work, and was giving the INTERNAL ERROR message. I had tried multiple times over a weeks time.

So, I DO have a clue, and know what I was doing.
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
Sprint tech here.. this guy and his manager are full of it.. QA and carrier *DO* have this ability, but you cannot call them and check up on a customer. Sprint can see the build information, but it can only be used for polling their own user base. (Ie. To see how many are running what.) No repercussions can come from information used to fill a pie chart... LOL

Traced with Ultra Keyboard from my *Epic*
[Epic 4G General] azyouthinkeyeiz:
I DO HAVE A CLUE, you're issue was a hardware failure, nothing you did flashing software. Don't be so gullible. Hardware issues can happen on a modded phone just the same as a stock phone. Stop taking so much stock in every answer you hear...

[Epic 4G General] lrosenman:
Just as a follow-up, I got the replacement phone,.stock DI18. It started out fine then started doing the internal ertor thing. Went back to the store and hard reset it, but same stuff. They had me come back when the manager was in I did that and lo and behold HIS phone started doing it. My phone now gets the right answers. He had one of his guys take a pic of his screen and he is sending it to the network guys. So ot NEVER was my phone or the rooting or the flashing. It is something on the network. He promised to let me know what the network guys say.

Wow, after all that ranting and raving about how technical you are and how we should trust the word of your super smart store manager. A manager who can magically determine if you are rooted through corporate. Now it turns out to be completely unrelated to the point of this whole post. Why is it that all the old wanna-be tech guys think every stupid notion they get in their head needs to be preached like gospel to the masses?

[Epic 4G General] blakealsobrook:
I had a pretty odd experience. When the official unoffical 2.2.1 update released, I downloaded the file ty my phone, reamed it and moved it to the root folder, booted and upated. Next day, **** hit the fan, and bugs abound, battery life is terrible. I download odin and the necesary files, put the phone in download mode.... no recognition. No drivers. Stuck with an un-upgradeable phone. Luckilly for me, the dude at sprint told me he would just order a new phone for me... so Monday, I'm gonna be set for the official ota... I just wish there was a way to upgrade this phone without reverting back. Anyone have a similar issue?
[Epic 4G General] maxhax2000:
Yea odin is the only way to get it back to normal. it is not a long or hard process. but you will loose all data. and i noticed it is not the exact version of d18 i originalty had but i think its a lil better. but anyhow. I would just wait for froyo. flash is not worth it yet. And when i had to unbrick with odin, i lost all my numbers because i was noob and didnt backup my data. well i had problems backing it up everytime i tried and said "fug it". and even then i still thought i had backup saved to a "APP's" website. Which come to find out, even thoo the app said it saved the data. i didnt goto the web site and setup a account. the app never said i had to setup a account either. So froyo was pretty cool untill i tried to do flash, and come to find out the gps was dead. But if u look on the forums there is a gps fix for the D18 i been using that kicks ass. i get lock instantly now and is allmost tempted to install froyo. but i dont want to loose numbers and crap again. Alltho i dont have anymore anyways lols. So i may. But anyways i think its worth it to just wait if your kinda noobish like myself, or you might loose all them girls numbers :(. but dont forget odin will save ya:) no matter what. dont waist your time in sprint store.
[Epic 4G General] richse:
The update didn't make your drivers/odin stop working. You probably have the same problem every other person who comes on here taking about their phone not working with odin has; you installed the drivers improperly or your computer/usb sucks. Go download some known working drivers and try it on a different computer. Magically, your broken phone will be totally fine.
[Epic 4G General] maxhax2000:
Ohh yea i had that exact same problem. I noticed that when i "held down 1, and rebooted into that "hardrive mode" or what ever its called. and computer didnt notice the phone. Then i took out the battery and shut the phone off. and then i completely unpluged the usb from the phone and the computer. Then restarted back into that wierd "odin boot HD mode" as i call it hehe. so seems like u gota make sure everything is unpluged from the phone and computer before you do this. also nothing tell you, but after you install the samsung drivers i had to restart to computer to get it working right and noticing the phone. ... well at least on my windows "vista" if that helps any1
[Epic 4G General] Top Nurse:
I am using Windows 7 Ultimate and have the following hooked up to my computer through the USB ports:

Epson printer

Mouse

Samsund Home Dock

Aqua Computer Aquaero

Epson scanner

I am able to use ODIN while having all this stuff hooked up in addition to the USB cable going to my Epic. So long as you use the Samsung drivers appropriate for your version of Windows and have USB drivers in you should be good to go.

One word of caution: If you start ODIN up and it doesn't work you should shut it down and reopen it. Sometimes I even reboot my computer or go into the Task Manager and delete the prog before trying it again. YMMV
[Epic 4G General] dreamsforgotten:
This problem has been addressed and solved. The cause of the problem is in the pit file with odin. One of the ones for di18 did this to my phone. What your problem is caused by is the msl corrupted in your phone. Call customer service and ask them to do a msl reset and everyone can quit freaking out.
[Epic 4G General] done12many2:

[Epic 4G General] nmoreman:
Here is a funny for all of you freaking out about Sprint Repair Center, technicians who know root, not root, etc., etc., then big brother watching to see what you did.

I exhanged my broken Palm Pre (that would be the 6th and last) and got a "rooted" Pre shipped to me as a replacement - obviously a Refurbished.

I laughed so hard, saved me so many steps - it worked fine, but no one checked this at all even when they were supposedly fixing someone else's broken phone to ship out to me. Unblievable.
[Epic 4G General] blakealsobrook:
4 different computers.

4 windows automatic driver installs.

4 sammy driver installs.

1 sprint technician without an answer, forcing a replacement phone: priceless.

And one condescending asshole owned via forums is also awesome.
[Epic 4G General] richse:
Proving you suck at installing drivers on every computer you touch with your own post. Wow, that is kinda priceless. I am going to point to the 2nd line of your post, "4 windows automatic driver installs." Anytime you let windows do automatic driver installs before you install the sammy drivers you are looking at an epic fail. The fact that you found a sprint technician without an answer is par for the course with sprint. If you had found one who could fix your problem or even cared to try for more than 30 seconds then that would be something really special. Do us all a favor and keep your phone stock and stay far away from xda or any other developer sites.
[Nook Color General] spiderboyy:
Anyone tried this out yet? It would be an excellent addition to the NC, as its made for the screen size and resolution. I'm assuming it only works with Samsungs Touchwiz framework though.

Have a look on the Android market and search for VNC....

On your home pc you also need a VNC server installed and it has be configured on the right way.

This isn't easy but possible! Also don't forget to configure your router right.

Good Luck!
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilbotn:
Hello folks,

I'm a loyal VZW customer, please don't throw tomatoes, and I love my Fascinate even though it has a few warts. My friend is on Tmo and ready to chuck his old BB into the Tennessee River. After much reading it seems to come down to the Vibrant or the mytouch 4G. I know that the mytouch was giving folks some grief in rooting and so forth and the vibrant has been sorted out.

My question is can someone who has T-mo give me opinions on these phones? I know this is the Vib forum and expect answers accordingly but the Vib is basically the slightly older brother to my Fascinate and I know how much it rocks even with Sammy dragging their feet at times.

Thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] DEFINITIONOFREAL:
As much as I love my vibrant I would go with the mytouch.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
I agree. MyTouch or HD7 if I could do it again (if they existed :P).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] t-rust:
I think your friend should wait for Nexus S. It is coming to T-mobile around mid December.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tpavey:
This. Supposed to launch December 16. As the new dec phone it means timely upgrades to the os.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xalucardx:
I would go for the MT4G eaven over the nexus s, just saying...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
Only thing on the Nexus S that's better than the Vibrant is the NAND chip and the OS.

Everything else is arguably worse, or the same at best.

Well, maybe the GPS will work right.

In any case, that phone is not "worth the wait."
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
you already have a fascinate, why not try other manufacturer like htc instead of samsung.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epakrat75:
The NFC chip may be nice. The EXT4 filesystem is too. The FFC and BFC flash are probably important to some. The lack of an SD card is bad. I don't want a Nexus S, myself. The Vibrant is still my favorite.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] JeremyNT:
Mytouch 4G IMO. Physically it just feels nicer, it has hsdpa+ (meh), has a front facing camera, and the GPS works right on it. The built in software is slightly less bad than the Vibrant's, and I'd actually be willing to bet that it will see an official CM build before the Vibrant does (despite being released so much later).
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Tell him to suck it up till the dual-core phones come out in early 2011.

I absolutely love the Vibrant. So hard to brick, lots of development, Cyanogen is going to happen, great hardware, great screen.

The MT4G has advantages, but i think it is ugly as Duck (kind of me not to cuss, right).... I would hate to pick up that phone everyday... it is just not attractive, at all to me. the data speed would be nice though, if you are in a "4G" city.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] N8ter:
The NAND chip in the Nexus S is much better than the Vibrants. There's a chance that even with RFS we would not be getting the types of lags we get if we had the better NAND chip.

Camera Flash, LED Notification are pretty basic features and Samsung not giving them to us was a faux pas - but they didn't really have any competition on our carrier when the phone was released (only the HD2, that was it), so there wasn't any real incentive for them to put them on there - all things considered.

FFC is nice but not necessary. Maybe in a year or so the market will get to a point where it's an expected feature.

Lack of SD card is bad but with 16GB storage I'd take a better NAND and a LED Notification and Flash over a card slot, personally...
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wi2TheMax:
Don't go for the MyTrash 4g. Come on. You should know better than that. Just get a Nexus S next week and you'll be fine. It has 2.3. Nice clean interface, no TouchWiz, SAMOLED screen, Front facing camera. It's a no brainer!

MyTrash 4G is ugly, has a washed out screen, ugliest UI I've ever seen on a phone, speaker sucks, battery life sucks, camera sucks. Garbage. Why would anyone on earth ever consdier that POS. So what if it has HSPA+! So what if it has a FFC and so what if has a so called "second generation" processor. Like it's that much faster. Please. Believe me, it isn't. The Nexus S probably wont have Samsungs stupid file system and since it will have 2.3, speed will be on par with the MyTrash if not just a little behind but only by a nose.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Tpavey:
Me too. I do not use this as my primary music player or for videos. 16 gb is plenty for me.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] iynfynity:
one thing i only like about the mytouch 4g is carly is advertising it. :D
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wi2TheMax:
lol yeah. But I'm really disappointed at HTC. They make good ****. Why did they have to be patronizing and give T-Mo a Fisher Price/Tech looking ugly ass phone with a ugly user interface. Why couldn't they just make a phone with the HD7/Evo's body and just use regular Sense. That's all they had to do.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ryan562:
The nexus s runs VANILLA ANDROID which means it will get updates Way before the vibrant or MT4G. Id wait for the nexus s and try it out in person.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tenbeau:
I have a Vibrant and a Nexus One and a MT4G. I am going to sell my Nexus One . I like the Vibrant best as I am using it to learn the how to;s and where for's of rooting and flashing etc. I am a nubie and I do not feel comfortable doing much to the Nexus One or the Mt4g. The Vibrant seems to be very difficult to do total damage to(at least thats what I have read on these threads) but I hope I do not find out just how difficult that is any time soon. IMO the Mt4g is the best all around phone. That is for phone basics and it does everything well ( however apparently no one thing great) and is just a solid performer, but it seems to not be user friendly to users who are not well versed in Adb or have a lot of experience in rooting and flashing and recovering etc. The Vibrant has Odin which I find to be very useful once you finally get it installed. That is just my opinion. I am going to keep the Vibrant for sure and probably the MT4g and am in the process of deciding whether or not to go for the Nexus S. (I probably will)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] bilbotn:
This phone isn't for me. It really is for a friend that really doesn't have any intention of doing any major "customization".
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Broken:
Just got my Wife a Mytouch 4G and after playing with it I am torn. Vibrant is great, but the random lags drive me nutz. Yes I have played with custom roms and they do seem to help but always come across weird glitches and end up back on stock as at least it is 100% stable for me. MT4G just seems over all snappier, and while screen isn't as vibrant, never had issues with blurry text in web browser. Also forgot how nice it was having HTC phones turn over to silence incoming calls and other little stuff like that. Vibrant is much lighter though, MT4G is heavier than it looks!

If I had to do it over, would probably get the MT4G.

Nexus S is a let down for me. Memory card slot would be nice, but no HSDPA+? WTF?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Roc327:
I wouldn't wait for the Nexus S...I know we can see everyones differing views but no SD Card and no 4g (from what I've heard / read)....Come on google/samsung.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaekidd1012:
At this point, I'd say Nexus S unless HSPA+ is a requirement. Otherwise, the Nexus S has hardware from the Galaxy S line (S-AMOLED screen, Hummingbird SoC, 16 GBs of storage) which I personally prefer over the MT4G plus the FFC which the MT4G has as well as pure Gingerbread plus updates as soon as Google releases them.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kubernetes:
I would wait for the Nexus S or get a G2. The G2 is getting much dev love now that it's unlocked. The Nexus S, even with the lack of SD card, looks sweet. I love how snappy the Gingerbread UI is.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lrobles787:
As much I love my Vibrant... agree Mytouch 4G. When I bought the phone Mytouch 4G didn't comeout yet. Don't get wrong the Vibrant is awesome but prefer Mytouch 4G.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] vamp6x6x6x:
I would say get a Vibrant because I love my Vibrant, but it all depends what you want...

The Vibrant has the Super awesome screen, and Touchwiz UI..

MyTouch 4G has a FFC and Sense UI..

Now if you want a sort of combo(of sorts) of the two I would wait for Nexus, but then again with the nexus S there are pros and cons also:

Pro:

Vanilla UI and a Google phone(means faster updates)

Con:

No sd card slot so about 16GB is all you get.

P.S. - I know I left a few features out of each device but I just wanted to sort of underline some things for you, hope this bit helps :)

That and the ability to transfer files to the SD card from the PC while in recovery. Not too mention the ability to format the sdcard the way Amon_RA does it, where you choose your own sizes and partition layouts. Amon_RA is just simpler and more familiar.
[G2 and Desire Z Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nivlac978:
