[Epic 4G General] ungovernable1977:
I have TEP, and on my first epic, it developed a line of pixels across the bottom side (in landscape) of magenta pixels... bright as hell. A tech told me it was cosmetic, and would cost 35 bux... nowhere in the policy does it say anything about ANY cost with TEP other than the insurance deductable, I said WTF, went to another store, they ordered me a replacement right away... Just because theres no clear policy, does not mean they cant be a **** and tell you to walk... so I wouldn't chance it. Plus, if a bunch of people with DK28 phones came in they would get sick of it real fast. It does make sense though if you did that update.zip, the original, that they kind of should give you a pass, as nothing is hacked, and it came from google, you could just say you read an article with a link to download it. XDA what? SDX who??? Still... just use Odin. If Sprint is being soft on policy about DK28, save it for those who have no other recourse... dont ruin it...

Besides, OTHER than the AMAZING sprint techs on here, a lot of those people are clowns, I would trust Odin over them any day. Especially as Epic for example, their jobs are becoming easier and easier... less real repair, more modular replacement... lowering the bar for the gig... Maybe if they told me their XDA screen name, I would trust em... ;)
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
Only one problem with using Odin to revert to 2.1: every time I do it, the accelerometer gets thrown out of whack and does not auto-rotate. This is an easy fix, although only if you are rooted. So you would have to Odin to stock, root, fix the screen rotation problem, and then un-root to receive the OTA update? Probably easier to just wait for the zip.

Or maybe the DI18 .tar I am using is messed up??:confused:
[Epic 4G General] ungovernable1977:
OK, if you can deal w/o the autorotate for a little bit, do it then update, as the update will wipe any settings you will make anyways. Sounds a lot like you should just wait for the special update.zip on XDA, then go from there.... would be a lot easier if you have to have a functional autorotate between Sun 11:59 PM and Noon the next day... because id bet by then, you will either have the download and be on Froyo, or it will be up here... do whatever is easiest for you. Im only going to DI18 if as soon as it gets on here, it gets rooted, EXT4'd, etc... too much... as long as theres a stock, with root only, version, I would like to try it... Im not sure I need deodexing, is that just for the themes that go over roms, or if its baked in than can it be odexed??? Just seen conflicting opinions on what to do. I really love the R&D done on here, and my phone has EXT4, but I would like to TRY the OG before it gets modified... just to see how stable it really is.... will effect how I feel about the delay a lot I think... If they put out a near 100% solid ROM (GPS fixed as stated, accelerometers, BT, any other actual function...). Still want a free USB>HDMI cable... John??? :D Ill blame sprint for everything....?
[Epic 4G General] djbacon06:
Good point. I have already reverted back to DI18 (as of last night) and rooted and fixed the rotate problem. I gotta say, dk28 was cool, but eclair absolutely flies on the epic...I forgot how fast it was (hoping and assuming the same will be true for eb13). I did this because I read somewhere that stock, rooted epics would be eligible for the OTA update, but now I'm not so sure. As you said, there is so much conflicting information out there!

But when all is said and done, I will probably just Odin again on Sunday night and wait and see what happens, both here and OTA. Waiting for devs to do their thing is probably the easiest, most pain free way of doing this.
[Epic 4G General] ungovernable1977:
yeah, as long as theres an untouched, well maybe just rooted version... as stated in another thread, may be a good idea to see what stock really looks like before the Devs break out the scalpels.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Stock rooted dg27 epics received the di07 and di18 ota without a problem, but they lost root after the fact. Not really an issue though.

Sent from an Epic I haven't bricked yet.
[Epic 4G General] anfrany:
I can corroborate this.

I've taken my epic (running Bonsai) in to the Sprint repair store because the touch screen stopped responding accurately, they replaced the screen and gave me the phone back with all my data and ROM intact. Never even mentioned it...
[Epic 4G General] The Root:
I'd imagine by the 25th we'll know since some people on here will still be running stock dk28 when it goes. My guess is that the fail usually comes when it tries to verify an older modem file. Or at least I thought I read that somewhere. Since it finds a "stock, older" modem files, wouldn't it then verify it needs updating?
[Epic 4G General] bigray327:
Why would you go through all the trouble to ODIN back to 2.1, just to probably re-root and load a custom ROM on the 22nd? I'm not even gonna bother with the stock 2.2.1. I'm going to wait till about 10 minutes after the first OTAs start and someone has a custom ROM posted here.
[Epic 4G General] ggrip:
+ 1 Will stay root and wait for a ROM update based on the official Froyo update instead of reverting to 2.1 for OTA.
[Epic 4G General] sponge66:
Sprint does have official policies regarding unofficial Roms. I can't speak for other corporate repair centers but at mine they look at your rom version and if its not stock (2.1-update1 Eclair.DI18) they send you packing. We also DONOT have any way of flashing Epics as there updated via OTA.

The 2.2 update has been a long time coming and most everyone has flashed to something while waiting for this update.. Just Odin back to the stock rom If you want the update, thats what I did. On a side note, after the mess sammy made with the 2.2 update for the intercept, I'm concerned about how all this will go. Time will tell!

Odin thread
[Epic 4G General] lazyart:
I've got three Intercepts in the house, and one of them was bricked by that update.

If I had known that the 21st was real I wouldn't have flashed my stock rooted DI18 last week. But I'm on Nebula now and will just wait for a new ROM based on Froyo source. CM6/7 is likely where I will eventually land though (but only if there is a Swype .apk available).
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Yes, but it's my understanding that they don't flag your account of void your warranty. In my experience, if you come back with the current stock os on the device, it's business as usual. Are you saying this isn't supposed to be the case?
[Epic 4G General] Duckie_Dooh:
I had a similar situation, I brought my Epic in running DK28 because it was not booting. They said that they tested the phone and it was fine, so they replaced the battery. It seamed as if they did not care it was running DK28, and it did not impact any of their diagnostics.
[Epic 4G General] sponge66:
No flag.. in fact you can go home flash back to stock, Come back the next day and get your work done.
[Epic 4G General] sponge66:
Not surprised it really depends on whether the tech notices it or even cares. The position is. .not work on unofficial roms.. period.
[Epic 4G General] mattallica76:
Cool, thanks for the confirmation.
[Epic 4G General] mikey80021:

I have approx 1300 contacts and HTC sync seems to be able to sync only aprox 730 contacts

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] yiannisthegreek:
I have flash and it works great. Im not sure whay you cant seem to access it. Make sure you have "plugins" enabled in your browser settings and then give it a go. You should have it no problem.

Also... You dont have to install the flash player from the market... When you upgrade to 2.2 it is automatically there. Perhaps you messed something up by installing the market version???

[Vibrant General] BALivindream:
Just flashed bionix-v today on my vibrant. I was using bionix fusion 1.2 before and that was great, but so far this rom is amazing and has FROYO!!!

I recently cancelled my cable tv and have replaced it with Netflix and PlayOn. What's even better is that PlayOn streams Netflix, Hulu, my Amazon VOD, and all the other great channels and plugins right to my phone now from anywhere!

I didn't buy PlayOn right away because of the price, but signed up for their newsletter and jumped on a deal for 1 free month and $20 for the first year and then just $20 every year after that.

Can you tell i'm just a little excited?
[Vibrant General] Phrack:
Unimpressed. All this does is stream from those websites to your PC which then streams to your phone. Yawn. I can already do this with RDP/PC and access all websites that can stream to my PC.

Would be great if it streamed direct to phone via WIFI/3G.

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] shaahinjjj:
Hey guys,

after trying all the different browsers out there I find the default browser fulfills my expectations best. The only thing I find annoying about it is the fact that it doesn't resize the screen to fit when you zoom in either by double tapping or pinching. I remember my HTC Desire, the browser would resize the screen on pinch to zoom which was really awesome. Is there an option to activate that? or is there a browser from other roms that could work on SGS? I already tried a couple and they all FCed. Any help would be appreciated.

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] epakrat75:
In the future, instead of making one post right after the other, you might try just editing your previous post instead. While you haven't done so yet, you should probably avoid also quoting long / detailed posts. Instead only quote what you need instead of the whole thing. Use the thanks button "where possible" instead of posting just to say thanks, that's cool, etc.

Yes. Flashing any unofficial rom, modem, kernel, mod, etc can interrupt normal operation of the various pieces of hardware that make up the phone. So, your problems aren't going to be limited to the GPS. For example, a ROM could disable the ability to access your SD card or some can even render the device unbootable. You flash at your own risk. The ROM cooks try to make such issues know but don't flash if you're not prepared to possibly be without certain functionality until you return to how it was before.

Learn to use Clockworkmod Recovery and Nandroid backup / restore by reading. Then in most cases, you'll be able to just restore to back to the way things were if you happen to flash something that didn't work out. You probably should read the linked thread in it's entirety before asking too many questions and you may find that folks are more than happy to help. Read all you can first then ask questions or risk being flamed. Good luck! :cool:

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=732458

If you still feel yet another thread (in addition to this one) is still necessary after reading the link above and the rest of the forums then so be it. If you're not adverse to reading / searching you might find that you may not need to ask for help as much. If so, you'll shed your noob status in no time. ;)
