Considering over half the nexus s 4g owners are epic refugees I wouldn't count on it.

True but I know a few people that went back to the epic cause they missed the keyboard to much

ummmmmm this is an EPIC board for people the like there phones why dont you try the market.
iam not going to waste my 100th post to say this so iam going to add to this as you can read you are in the wrong place try again in the other board

Call Sprint and get your upgrade qualification early (the 1 year upgrade eligibilty). Sell Epic, get a couple of hundred bucks from someone who doesn't want to be on a new contract. Use money from sale and upgrade eligibilty to get a Nexus S 4G. for free or almost free.

Thx for all the responses, but I'm only looking for someone interested in trading

notice how no one has replied yet?

I have a Nexus and I'm here. As a NExus owner I can say that it's not all it's cracked up to be. There are some pretty big downsides to the Nexus, especially coming from the Epic. They are as follows:
1) NO CODEC SUPPORT. This is a very big one. It won't even play .wma
2) No zoom or widescreen mode on the camera.
3) NO HD VIDEO RECORDING. This may NEVER get fixed as it's rumored to be hardware limitations.
4) Things like not being able to access notifications while the dialer is open are annoying.
Now the positives:
1) It's AWESOME.
2) There is a good chance most of the downsides will be fixed.
3) The curved screen is really nice
4) the build quality, I feel is better then the Epic.
5) Everything just works
Before you make the switch just make sure you know what you are getting into and be willing to wait for things to get addressed. Dreams has been VERY busy porting the crap out of stuff like the toggles in the notification menu. Follow his progress he's doing awesome stuff.

I'll trade you for my Epic. Its just like the Nexus S but has a keyboard and Gorilla glass. Plus I can control the brightness by sliding my finger along the status bar among other things.

While they're not big deal-breakers, this makes me very sad.
But wait..can it at least play mp3?

Nexus S 4G Release Date Announced

"The highly anticipated Nexus S™ 4G1 from Google™ goes on sale in all Sprint channels, including www.sprint.com, on Sunday, May 8, for $199.99 (plus tax) with a new line or eligible upgrade and two-year service agreement. Extending the company’s 4G device leadership yet again, it is the fourth 4G phone available and 20th 4G device announced from Sprint."
Look here for details
Engadget just picked it up
Thought some of you might be interested.
I'm interested in so far as this improves Epic gingerbread support.
Would the nexus S end up needing a diff custom rom? Like a sprint version?

LOL. Yeah! The Rom on that phone will be so clean that people will be tempted to put sprint's crappy bloat ware on it.
Yay let's get a phone...pay 200 for it when its the same as the epic without a keyboard. Hopefully the gingerbread port isn't that difficult

yay! lets buy a phone that is getting updates after they have been out for almost a year. we could use a hardware keyboard that misses keys!
[/trolling]
theres a lot more then just the keyboard thats different
i personally will be enjoying my new ns4g on may 8th, i will enjoy it even more when ice cream comes out. really and truly each device has their own market, there is no reason to slam down one just because.
one of the biggest draws for me is the software, within 4 days cm7 will be on the nexus s 4g. the nexus is still getting updates that leaves me very optimistic about the nexus s. ideally they would have brought a nice new lg nexus instead but hey whichever

Since the Nexus S 4G is coming out soon and of course it'll get a source code, how much will it affect CM7 development?
I'm positive 4G will come much quicker but is there anything else?

It depends on what hardware elements are the EXACT SAME, for instance it won't help with the camera because they have different sensors, but it might help with the GPS.

Actually it is. They both cost the same price, they both have almost the same hardware, and the Epic is a better phone as fast as multimedia. Video recording in 720p and way better camera software/libs. I rather the ns for development. If I rathered the multi media features the Epic would win out. That's why I kept both phones. I use the nexus as a phone and carry the Epic to do video and listen to music so I think its a fair trade.

I believe right now the ns4g is 460 off contract the epic was 540 so its actually more. Epic is a great phone but laggy with the bloat and carrier iq present luckily theres roms out to fr ix that. im currently working on an aosp build for it from 2.3.4 source which should put it on a level playing field with the nexus. GB leaks for the epic are greatly improving the phone
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
That's the thing. I'm moving out the country and canceling my contract very soon. Wanted a GSM phone... guess this was the wrong place for that. But I posted in the mktpl as well as the ns forums (GSM). But I would take a cdma version because of the aosp. Regardless I like my phone. Doesn't seem like anyone wants to take me up on my offer

Try to trade locally for an unlocked Vibrant or HD2. The Dev support for those phones are ridiculously large. You could also sell the epic on craigslist for $200 then use that to buy an unlocked t-mobile android phone (Vibrant/Mytouch 4g/G2/HD2) if someone won't trade.
Personally I would sell the epic then buy a vibrant. The vibrant has HSPA bands you could use in europe and has aosp/cm7 roms similar to what the Nexus S runs. It is also easily unlocked by everyday users without having to pay a dime, so you can save money by buying a locked vbrant and unlocking it yourself.
Just keep trying OP...
I trade lots of stuff online. I remember trying to trade an Elite 360 for a 60gb BC PS3...I tried and tried and wrote over 10 people every day for a month until I found someone that said yes. It may take some time but you will adventually find someone that is willing to do it.
I wish someone would take my infuse for an i9020a :*( you guys have amazing dev support and roms...I'm so jealous!

The taste of Miui I just got on this phone may have won me back over. I think that anything is possible if someone has the will to do it. I flashed a bunch of builds that hung at the Sammy screen and seemingly overnight things started happening fast. With my luck, Gingerbread would get released the day after I didn't have this phone anymore. I think I was just going through withdrawls from not flashing for a couple of days. Also, after seeing what the ET4G forum is like, I am happy to be a part of this one...I'm not going anywhere any time soon...and thanks
Sent from my OG Epic running Miui
Yep, as much as I wanted the ET4G, I'm glad I didn't go to the sperm bank now
Its just to many things better coming down the pipe, and the Epic is still Epic by all accounts, and it has a keyboard, so, I'm happy. And this place is much better then that place lol.
I ain't going to lie I like the epic 4g forum guys here help when you need it & all the funny post people put up that made me laugh my balls off lol it only took me 1 day to root & flash I like my nexus its sexy! But the epic to me has better video & picture quality & more memory there's give & take with both phones I got a brand new nexus for free at best buy & payed 30$ for some buy back program in 6 months I can bring it back & they will give me 50% of what it cost retail 350$!!! & then I could use that towards the nexus prime the E4GT or whatever ever phone I like

What's a good phone for messing around?

I noticed the Nexus S is cheap and alright but wondering if there are any other ones. Not trying to replace mine but to have fun with and do other stuff. I can buy a Nexus S for about 75$ barely been used. But what about the HTC Evo Shift? Any tips Is appreciated.
I dont want older phones haha, nothing more than 100$.
I dont want to add a new line or activate any phone.
Not too interested in tablets. Something that still isn't too dead and is over-clockable as the Epic if not better.

I'd probably say the Nexus, only due to the nature of it getting updates and more open space for customization.

That was the issue with the Sammy Moment i even talked to Samsung and they realized it was their fault and non-user related that it forced into a data lockup and FCC states that a phone must at all times be able to call 911. and yaadada big story but anyways is there any other phones you guys think thats reasonable and good to like the Nexus S? i was thinking of the Shift?
lol.. easy there guys.. i was joking (name IS PvtJoker afterall) I was laughing cause my moment is sitting on my desk under a nice veil of dust. If i had to pick a random phone just to play with, nexus s would be my pick too.

EVO LTE not what I expected!

So yesterday my epic was stolen. I call sprint to do my ins claim n found out my upgrade was up. So I decided to givea shot to the EVO (keeping in mind that I have 14 days to switch to my gs3 lol ) .this phone looks n feels amazing but truly has far as the performance goes it cannot match our E4GT. It has too many issues. Despite not having LTE yet this phone is not an upgrade from the epic. Google wallet doesn't work , WiFi issues , multitask sucks and I don't care what people say this phone lags. Keep in mind I'm neither an HTC or Samsung fanboy. I'm just android freak looking for the best experience.

Hmm..Interesting experience. My experiences have been amazing. Ironically I was just thinking apple doesn't stand a chance with such a stable HTC device with sense 4, and ICS... Unfortunate you did not have a better experience with the LTEvo

There are some pretty significant issues with a good percentage of these phones mine has issues its just not worth my time to return it when I will be returning it for the gs3. Some people are on their 2nd or 3rd exchange. So good for him he is lucky. It isn't a bad phone but I like Samsung's better. Everything about sammies are better.
The op also posted this in the e4gt forum and the mod closed it so it wouldn't be all about fanboism. Ughhh What's so wrong with being a fanboy?
I think it is a good opinion that all who are upgrading would like to know. But it is usually best to post these things in the phone upgrading thread.

Jbadboy I heard about people having a color bleed issue? Did you evo have that same issue as well?

I have seen many who have had that issue with the screen light bleeding into the home button. But no not me. I have slower 3g than my epic and WiFi is wonky. Ear speaker while on call is very low. Music volume is very low. Multi tasking is crap. The keyboard will get hung up and won't type. I don't like sense lol
It's okay to criticize HTC so long as you also acknowledge Samsung's shortcomings. 'Fanboy' is synonymous with 'hypocrite.'
Remember when the Epic 4G was released with video out capability? Oh wait, no, they nixed that at the last minute without telling anyone so that they could force their MediaHub over DLNA. Because every TV I'm ever near has DLNA. But I'm not bitter.
FACT: MediaHub was the first apk I deleted when I first rooted.

Sometimes, you can be bias.
(Not you, specifically. In general)
