samsung epic 4g

My Epic 4G is unrooted and I have had it almost a year. Still love it. Here's the thing - I like my phone the way it works now (Gingerbread, FC09) so is there something I am really missing by not rooting? I've rooted a couple Android phones before, so it's not intimidating or bothersome, I...

My phone just updated yesterday (Ice Cream Sandwich maybe?) and now every time I plug in my phone for charging the wireless turns on. I searched through settings and can't find anything that might be causing it. Any help would be appreciated. Tony

My phone is the Samsung Epic 4G and I was trying to install the new firmware update FC09 (if I'm not mistaken, this is what it's called). But the thing is, I forgot to unroot my phone before the installation. Now my screen is stuck with a black screen with a red exclamation mark inside a...

Thanks to Kelmar for making the rooting guide for the Epic 4g. However this guide (as does most others on the Internet) references the file at firon.net: /xda/one.click.root.exploitv2.5.5.zip which does not exist anymore: I get a 404 when I attempt to open this file. Is there another place I...

Hi All... Having significant problems with my "other" phone (Epic 4G) with things I used to be able to clear up with certain methods but can't at the moment. I'm hoping to AVOID a factory reset :( Sync of my calendar is causing the Google Framework and/or Google Process "gapps" to force quit...

I periodically run into the problem of my wifi not connecting. I'll be in my house and when I turn the phone on there is no wifi indicator. If I go into settings/wifi it tells me that my home wifi is not in range. The router is 3 feet away, and my tablet sees it just fine. If I power off/on the...

When I press the lock button on my phone, the display sometimes turns on, other times it doesn't. The touch buttons on the bottom of the phone (menu, home, back, search) light up and work, and the actually touching the screen works, (I can still answer the phone and whatnot from memory. I...

Hiya... Weird situation I found...at least for me! :D Have a few different phones here at the house. Coincidentally my HTC EVO and my wife's Samsung Epic 4G were experiencing "google apps/framework" force closes/quits while trying to sync our google calendars. I had this problem once before...

It's been two years! Google (or search Amazon) "Epic 4G kickstand" and you'll get a hundred hits for Epic 4G TOUCH, but none for Epic 4G. Google "d700 kickstand" - nada Is it because of the rounded corners? Makes the phone unstable to balance on a kickstand? Seems like a pretty easy engineering...

Is there a way to separate the slider keyguard from the PIN code? I want the code for protection, but it seems redundant to have to do the vertical slide during wakeup and then punch in a code. I have tried: 1) Keyguard disabling apps 2) Tasker programs, with and without the secure settings...

Ok, I slowly realized this after I couldn't save pictures anymore. Here's what I've tried: - take a picture - record a video (video recording failed) - copy and paste a file on the SD card - connect my phone via USB to my PC For the last one, my PC sees the drive but when I click on it says...

When I add a contact to my Epic 4G (Galaxy S, model SPH-D700), I'm given a choice regarding where or how to save the contact: Phone or Google My "Google" contacts are automatically synced with Google Contacts. Are my "phone" contacts automatically synced with anything, or are they just on my...

I can't update to Gingerbread on my Samsung Sprint Epic Galaxy S. I've had this problem since it was released, but I thought there was no other way to do this besides go through the very painstaking process of backing up ALL my phone memory and key settings, resetting my phone or uninstalling...

What, other than carrier performance affects data speed? I was at a friend's house. He has an iPhone4 on ATT. I have the Epic on Sprint. We did simulatneous data speed tests using Speedtest.net. My Down/Up results averaged .40/.24 and his were 6.2/4.0 with one being 9.2/8.6. We have...
