Everytime i reboot my phone, I get bunch of problems with my phone. when I try to open the phone dialer I get a force close on com.google.process.acore. Sometimes it completely prevents me from using the phone. Then on occasion the phone freaks out and shuts the screen off, but leaves the...

I live in the central time zone. This morning I woke up and my phone decided to adjust for daylight savings time by 2 hours instead of 1. I checked the time and date settings to find that the date settings were checked to "automatic". Somehow the phone decided I was in the Mountain time...

I want to use this phone as a digital camera replacement. However when I turn on tehcamera, the power button turns into a "lock" button. There's no way to turn off the screen. So first I have to hit the home key. Then it takes about 8 seconds for the camera to disable before it returns to the...

More than half the time, android market stalls On downloads. It gets as far as "starting download" but then nothing happens. It doesn't even time out,it just acts as if the download wasn't even happening. The problem is it's inconsistent, and then seeming goes away ion its own after 10 minutes...

Hi All, So my battery life has gotten better, but it's still somewhat questionable. Even with the airplane mode trick, I still find myself frequently getting 8-10% TWS. I have had my phone last 2 days without a charge, and yet other days the phone is below 30% by 10PM. Is this a legitimate...

I have a quick question coming from the iPhone to the Epic. On the iPhone, 3G was always enabled as was wifi. Whenever I was in a wifi area, it would connect, and turn off 3G. However as soon as I got out of range of wifi, it would return to 3G for any data needs (checking email, etc). On my...

Has anyone had this happen to them? You place a call, and when you're done you attempt to hit the big red "END" button, but nothing happens? I've actually had the call counter tick off an extra 20-30 seconds before it hangs up. Given that this is the main screen and not one of the capacitave...

Ok time for the next issue with this phone. Has anyone noticed a general lag between touch screen presses and actions/sounds? The best examples are: 1) I type fast, and keep the click sound when I type. I can literally hear about a 1/4 second to 1/2 second lag between when I press the buttons...

I'd like to thank the people over at XDA. I think they may have found the culprit for the horrible battery performance some of us are seeing. There are two threads of interest over there: [Q] Time without signal > 50% - xda-developers Wow battery from 100 to 10 in 3 hours - xda-developers The...

I like many of you have been waiting for months to get my hands on the epic. However when I bought one, the battery life was insanely unusable even after 4-5 days. So I finally returned it for a new on. Well find out over the next few days how the battery performs. But the new one has...

I have an intermittent but frequent problem with my Epic using the market. I click Install Now on an app, and under the Downloading section of the market it says "Starting download" with a bunch of green and white stripe progress indicators. But it just sits there and does nothing...

I've seen lots of people comparing Epic to Evo, Hero, and others, but I haven't heard a single person compare their new Epic to their iPhone... What do you all think if you're coming from an iPhone? Personally I love the configurability and the widgets. The screen is beautiful, and it's all...

I've had my phone unplugged since 11AM this morning. It's now 8PM. My battery meter shows 1h 30m since unplugged (I think this is the built-in status from the OS). Additionally my battery widget shows 26% but the blue batter in the top corner shows 1/2 full. Are there any good battery...

It doesn't look like Multicon has made an appearance in the Epic forums. It's a really cool widget that lets you put a bunch of smaller icons in place of a few larger ones. If anyone's an expert user though, can you help me figure out how to arrange the icons horizontally? I can make a 8x2...

I just downloaded MailDroid and it is far superior to the stock email client. However I noticed one oddity I wonder if anyone knows how to fix. I only have one account installed, but every time I open the app, it brings up the account chooser. Is there a way to have it default to open my...
