Funny, I was just reading that thread wondering WTF was going on.

I replied with my thoughts, I gave him a mini lecture, topped off with a tiny slap to the face, bash a good phone based off of stupidity and you're bound to get a slap on the wrist by *someone* eventually.
I almost wanted to say send it my way...
Love your sig Zander, I was going to add that yesterday, ohwell.
It's funny, some of the complains by the OP indicated a dud and the slow 3g is just a sprint thing, but the one legitimate complaint he had about the screen dimming in direct sunlight due to overtemp was completely ignored. It's a documented "feature" and the Charge exhibits the same behavior. Must be a samoled+ thing.

And yes, the overall tone of the thread was incredibly childish. Glad I don't have to sift through that BS in my area.

Now guys, try to be nice. Although, I know it would've been hard to do without being sarcastic, did anyone ever try and just explain all of his problems?
Posted by Mr. Z's Epic 4G Touch+Keyboard
His problem is he obviously never spends more than a month with any phone. Check his list of phones. This guy is a serial returner. Not happy with anything or he'd not be here complaining about his newest phone.

Just wanted to say goodbye to the epic 4g. I recently traded my epic for a nexus s 4g, and I couldn't be happier. I wanted to say thanks to all the great devs that made the epic what it should have been out of the box. My decision was confirmed for me when my wife's LG Optimus s got an ota gingerbread update the other day! Before the epic! Crazy! For me its all nexus phones from now on. There will be some features that I miss from touchwiz, but for the performance and update trade off, I'd gladly go vanilla android. Thanks again for everyone who made the epic an awesome phone!

Farewell. You will be missed kind sir.

Good luck with your new toy and happy flashing! This community is great. The ET4G forum was all jovial for the first 2 days. Now, the morons are popping up everywhere! As soon as one minor issue pops up, people are going ballistic. If only they could learn patience from some of us here...

I've got this bro. I'll wear a "Forever Alone Face" mask, and it'll be the story of "E for Epic 4G" and I'll blow up the E4TG Parliamentary Manufacturing plant.
(I really do hope someone gets the connection and I don't look like a lame ass haha)
I just sent an email to Samsung through opensource.samsung.com asking them to release the Gengerbread update and/or the source code for our phone, hopefully they will reply to me in 24 hours as they claim and not just ignore it :/

Pretty ****ty that my niece just got a new Android through METRO PCS (probably the worst provider in the U.S.), and she has Gingerbread. Glad I paid all of this money for something treated like a red headed step-phone.
Disgusted with Samsung beyond belief. What is taking so long to release this? It looks like they are working on it, but I don't understand what is taking so long. Not that I am available for an upgrade right now, but even if I were, there is nothing out there that I really want right now (QWERTY is something I really want).

That's what I did. I traded my epic straight up for a nexus. The Guy wanted a keyboard...I wanted an unlocked phone. Worked good all around. There's quite a few of us former epic users in the nexus forums. I got to say, its all its cracked up to be!

Still using my Epic as my main phone, but I used my sister's upgrade to get the Nexus. Just as a nerd toy. Got it for 30 dollars. It was so worth it oh my god, MIUI is amazing on that curved screen. It hasn't been thirty days yet and I was gonna trade it back for the Epic 4G Touch but the Best Buy website says there isn't any in stock in my area so I guess I'm stuck with my Nexus

30 dollars?! Damn, and that was a hell of a deal! I really would like to get my hands on one of those so I can get a true Miui and CM7 experience. I am too new to the Android scene. I have yet to have a phone with either of those ROMs but I assure I will get a chance on my ET4G

I'm just anxious for CWM and root to work without any doubts of it ruining something in the process of flashing each. One thing that worries me is the back and forth about whether the phone will support Rev B or not, no one seems to know.

Really that's all that's missing from our devices, they are made to be mainly informative and entertaining, but not productive. Now the asus transformer has productivity written all over it as long as right productivity apps (imagine open office on android) could definateley replace a laptop for school. Like 75% of my schoolwork requires my laptop lol

Remeber, these things you mention were ran on much slower pc's years ago, has the code gotten that bad you need 4 2ghz cores, I don't think so.

If you get sprint service as it is now youll get lte. It's going on bands near the same freq so its diff when it comes to the Wimax rollout which covered less area.

If you look at the related videos, it shows this guy is or has been in a mental institution. And not to mention, there is absolutely no proof he is actually on sprint. He could have just renamed any wireless network to the "sprintlte" or whatever he called it.

disregard the fact the "speed tests" showed 40mbps, but his download speeds only showed 2.4MBps...thats roughly half the speed the tests showed.

Sometimes I wonder about those guys over at Android Police.
Pretty obvious the videos posted are all fake. Is it any wonder why the comments and voting for those videos are disabled? Is it any wonder why he tried to make a video without audio? Why is he dumping his "TheComputerMaster" YouTube channel and creating a new one called (((PLANETEARTHSUNIVERSE)))

I Looked at 2:35 on this video and immediately was sold on the EVO 4G LTE the image quality at low lights is pretty mind blowing

This is the only phone ive been so impatient with waiting for it to come out
yeah sprint would have $200 of my money coming may 7th guaranteed... actually feeling a little nostalgic about being in the exact same 4g situation I was when i got my original EVO... maybe its a bit of Stockholm syndrome

If im not mistaken, I think you can still connect to "regular" 4g if LTE isnt available
Or do you just not 4g where you live in general?
Pretty certain there is no wimax (regular 4g) on the new Evo. I've read the 8960 chip can't/doesnt support it. So I don't believe that's an option.

Sprints "regular" 4g is wimax. I'm pretty certain this phone will not support wimax.
