I was wondering if anyone had the speaker for the epic. Mine blew and now it sounds like crap listening to music. I talked to Samsung and they said they'd fix it and it'd take about a week. But as of now my warranty is void,rooted and custom rom, I have a pretty good idea on how to replace it. But now I need the speaker. I tried a few places to no avail. So now I am on a quest to find one. Any help would be awesome!

Odin back to stock, and there will be no trace of a custom anything. Then take it in to a Sprint store, they'll order a new phone and have it for you in 2-3 days.
Thanks, I'll stop by sprint tomorrow and see. If all else fails I crack this baby open and fix it my self. After looking at an exploded view it looks pretty simple to get too.

Odin first! And even if Sprint *****es, go through Samsung. You have a warranty, the part failed because of a manufacturing defect, you're entitled to a free repair. Never give up!
OK. I'll try to go the warranty route. Imma tinker, I don't know the software part of androids and cell phones, but the hardware I can figure out! So I try to mess with them some times.

Thanks for your support! But we'll still be here when you get a replacement - probably with an update.
Hopefully w a built in vibrant/fascinate puzzle lock screen since I have no clue how to make it work now.

It's not out yet, but we're looking into it.
Sprint repair centers have the part. They switched mine in about 30 minutes. I didn't even have to give my passcode - just played some music from pandora and made a speaker phone call to show it was busted.

If you have insurance, it's a free repair. If you don't have insurance, it's $35 and probably shipped to the store, you keep your old device until it comes in (1-2 days) and then swap it out when it arrives UPS.

Do not take your phone into Sprint if it is rooted you might get a rep that knows what to look for also remove your memory card because off they will look for nand backups also.

I know this is another GalaxyS device, but it seems that there really isnt any interest for it in the community. Does the ticker screen cause enough compatibility issues that we most likely wont see Cyanogen or anything for it? What about support from Samsung, are we likely to fall behind the curve for 2.2 release?
Iv had it for a few days and I love the formfactor, but Im considering swapping it for a fascinate for the modability. Any opinions?
There is currently no support from the developer community, but all it takes is one good dev and we'll be in business. There's really no way of knowing if 2.2 will lag behind, since no US Galaxy S phones have gotten the update yet... Only time will tell on both I'm afraid.
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App
Samsung has began releasing the 2.2 update in certain countries from what I've read. So it should only be a matter of time before the USA gets it. The update will come via Kies I believe (Samsung's update software for PC).
As for custom ROMs for the Continuum, I believe development may be slow for this phone due to the ticker display. The ticker makes it more difficult to develop for. However, I'm confident we'll get some custom ROMs at some point. I'd be really nice if Samsung skipped 2.2 and went straight to 2.3 but that'll never happen.

One of the first things we are going to need is a custom recovery to be able to backup/restore the phone. I suspect this will take someone loaning their phone to koush in order to get clockwork recovery and rom manager support. I know I am leery to try anything without having a way to restore, even if I have to restore to default.
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App
Yeah a stock ROM would be excellent. There will be plenty of people who delete necessary apps with root access even before custom ROMs are available.
Sent from my SCH-I400 using XDA App
Well we're gonna need a custom recovery first, so that is one of the bigger issues.
Sent Koush a tweet asking what he would need and offered my phone for a period of time. I still have my D1 I can use.

Glad to see the Continuum Forum up and running! I know very little about development and such, but I'm open to testing out things. I'll be following the threads here as much as possible.
I was thrilled with the idea of this phone when it was released, but the limits on the ticker make it nearly unusable (no gmail? and Samsung's e-mail app is horrible).
I was thinking about returning it, but with the new found forum here on XDA, my hope is renewed.
Ok so, I've given it the mmost time I was willing not to say anything, but Can we please get an update or 2? PLEASE!!!!!! It's killling me!!!!!!

Let's not get ungrateful or we'll never get any devs in here...
i would like to re-spark interest in this.. i feel that if a dev could tackle this it would be one of the greatest advancements of the sgs fascinate..
i have had a lot of people say that it is not possible because of the hardware.. or the cdma chipset.. but i read in droid forums someone had a tvout kernel in testing then this post below states 2.2 could have it.. im not convinced it cant be done.. the devs at xda are amazing. and i have faith in all of you.
http://www.droidforums.net/forum/sa...80024-adding-tv-out-capability-fascinate.html
Video out... from... where? From the Fascinate? I just looked again, in case we've been looking at different phones all this time... and the only plug is USB. Is there a magic plug on yours that has like 10x the throughput of USB2?
I am told there are pins in the USB slot. So... ok. This is still a "not going to happen until you get a new kernel" thing, so don't hold your breath.
Also every other phone that does this sucks while doing it, so...
Last time I checked there is no hdmi out, let me look again...no, just usb.
Sent from my SCH-I500 using XDA App
The Epic has tv out in testing, might be fully working too, haven't checked in a while. I'm pretty sure it uses component cables out of the headphone jack. So it appears to have nothing to do with hardware and everything to do with carrier preference, as the Epic is CDMA and isn't supposed to have tv out either.
Sent from my SCH-I500
We will get it sooner than later. If 2.2 starts rolling out like the reps have been saying, then we should be getting this sooner.
To the first 3 negative responses... Via 3.5 jack or usb to hdmi.. I would prefer 3.5 video out... If your just going to bash on here don't bother posting..

The fasinate already has video out. The headphone jack has a 3rd line to it. All you have to do is buy the wire. Its a red, yellow, white analog plug in on the other side.
That seems to be the case, but as of yet there's no way to enable it. And, as in the case of the Epic, the drivers are most likely not present and will have to be hacked on to our phone.

...at the risk of being stoned to death (and not the good kind).... the Telus Fascinate uses the headphone jack for it's TV out. There is an option for the TV out enable in under the Settings -> Display tab at the bottom with the option for NTSC or PAL. It's a fairly standard cable. I had two - one which didn't seat properly and didn't work and the other one didn't look like it went in all the way in but worked fine. Disclaimer to all - of course this doesn't mean that works on anything other than a Telus Fascinate.....

you need a ground in there somewhere. 4 contacts would be left, right, ground, and mic. i would assume the SGS phones that do have video out uses the mic in as the video out. so that means it would have 2 connections to the pin in the 3.5 jack. one for video out and the other as the mic in.

Yep, it's too bad they fixed it. I was in store yesterday showing off CM7 to my friend who is the manager and he was very impressed by the way....any how he asked me if I was having any problems with my Fascinate, I said no, it's great.
He said " aren't you having an issue, wink wink" I said yeah maybe, why is it discontinued so they are replacing with a new model.....he said yes, the Charge or several other models....he then began to punch keys on his computer and said oh nope they canceled the deal because the OTA fixes the calling issue. He said the offer went for about a week before the update came out. It is supposed to fix the issue where you get a voicemail but never an incoming call... hell I thought it was a network issue, not a device issue. Oh well, updated to the new ED04 then installed JTs CM7

While I'm not having a missed call issue, I am having a problem with Data going on and off and random and doesn't matter where I am at. I can drive around a 30 mile radius and it still seems to be a problem.
Here is something I thought I would pass along. I called verizon this morning and just told them that I have calls that were going straight to voicemail without the phone ringing and without getting a missed call message. I told them that I did a factory reset and that did not fix the problem. They then gave me the option to switch to the charge, incredible 2 or the droid x. I didn't have to do anything else and now will be rocking 4g on the charge!
Now I feel like getting this update to see if I get that straight to voicemail problem. I want the Charge, damn it. >.< haha

damn !!
well in past one and a half month of getting my vzn fsc , i have tried practically all Roms available and all the radios , and really
this freakin no missed call ( yet bloody missed ) is killing me ,
sometimes i have flashed my phone like 10 times in a row on any given day to just find a combo having no missed calls thingy , better battery and better voice and data ,
ultimately gonna go back to DL09
but i sincerely think neither vzn nor sprint is gonna be able to fix this missed call thing in the cdma version of android os , its the mess created by google , they are just not able to fix it and they are hiding it .
Its was never a network issue its there in the OS.
Straight up. I am currently using ZenDroid 2.1.1, but have encountered this problem on several roms and so have others. The person on the other side gets a horrible echo. I just moved to a house where my reception is horrible, and I need this to work properly. My wife and I both have vibrants.
The bottom line - be the first to deliver to me a non echoing, functional t-mobile wifi calling app for froyo, and I Paypal you $50. I prefer to have it work on zen droid, but if there is no other way, I will change to another froyo rom to have this work properly. I just have to confirm it has fixed my problems before payment, and $50 is yours. No BS.
Anyone up to the challenge?

Yeah I saw it, what I am looking for now is actually to get the app fixed , if someone has the time...
Everything he said makes sense, and I will have to try the volume thing to see how it works. I posted this before I saw what he said on the ZenDroid thread.
As far as the incentive, I think it is a good idea. I am totally not trying to be a smartass, when I say it would not be the first time something unfixable on this phone was fixed by some great minds on this forum. I'm trying to motivate someone to try and overcome a difficult, perhaps insurmountable obstacle.

NP, and, certainly not trying to push. I am not an EDT fanboy, but I have tried at least 8-10 2.3.4-2.3.5 ROMs, just about giving up, and saying Nexus Prime is prolly less than 2 months away. On a final whim I tried Asgard, and with this thread:
http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1239713
despite myself, I actually have working GPS that is equal to or better than any FroYo ROM I have used. I am on my 3rd replacement Vib. and the first 2 sucked wind as far as GPS went, so I KNOW bad GPS. I saw another poster (and I should have bookmarked the quote) say something to the effect that anything that could possibly be a GB bug he has managed to experience on his Vib. +1... The problem is that no 2 phones are the same, so YMMV, but I am now, albeit reluctantly, a believer that GB can have awesome GPS. Just my 4 cents.
I use my gps on a daily basis as a must for my business and im on miui revamped and have been for a couple months..these guys have got the gps goin on,its fast,accurate and i haven't driven off a cliff or into the ocean yet.
So if your sticking with froyo for that reason....your missing out.
Good luck with your wifi calling endeavour

Thanks nick. Is a form of wifi calling working on miui? Did not think it was, guess its the only thing keeping me off it now. Things changed for me moving to the new place, but after a few hiccups, the studio should be at 100% in about two weeks. Its always something, right?
I would have tried your rom earlier, but I just lack the time to do the switching around nowadays. Had to go back to froyo and stay for awhile.
