I don't see how the epic is even remotely worth the ns4g.

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

The hard part is finding a gsm owner looking to move to sprint and switch to a cdma device. You never know tho, the more you spread the word you might find someone who does

Yea, I mean definetly there has to be someone who wants to. Problem is going to be finding them. And to be honest, the more I use ef02, the less I want the nexus.

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

Evo for galaxy s 4g

I had a Guy who wants me to give him my evo for his galaxy s 4g. Should I do it? I know the galaxy has a 5mp camera and a .3 in the front although Samsung makes some dam good sensors. I also know its 16 gigs built in memory vs my 8 gigs with expandable memory. No notification light and a smaller screen. Hmm I don't know what to do lol help please. Thanks in advance.
EDIT : CRAP can a mod please move this to evo 4g general? Sorry been up for 26 hours. I know no excuse.

No. It's nice at first but you will soon realize it's a piece of crap. The camera is the only advantage it has over the EVO.

If its the original Galaxy S, no go. Keep your evo.

My mistake its actually the nexus s 4g. What do u guys think?

I say keep it. You'd be better trading it to sprint for a galaxy s II or waiting for the should be galaxy nexus.

I don't know what people are smoking, but if you are getting a trade for a Evo vs Nexus S 4G, absolutely do it! There are many threads here comparing the 2 and the Nexus always wins.

Hmm so I should trade it then
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I'd do it, especially since you're not jeopardizing an upgrade. NS is definitely a step up.

If u like sense i would stay with the evo. Nexus radio is weaker. Both are great phones and still have life left in them. Personally i like the evo line better.

i have the evo, my wife has the nexus s 4g. i love her phone a bit more. it's much more sleek, just as fast. if it were me i would probably trade.

I had the ns4g for a day. Couldn't stand the lack of microsd slot and the lack of a notification light. I ended up exchanging mine for an EVO and haven't looked back.

I bought my wife and daughter each a NS4G on launch day bth Its faster and slimmer but i still like my evo better. I like the bigger screen and im stuck on MikG roms with the wired theme. The color saturation on the NS4G is horrible IMO. Too yellow. Keep the evo.

Love this phone

Got this phone on the 8th super awesome! Coming from evo3d land.

I have used Vibrant and IMHO its a piece of crap compared to Nexus but i was using stock rom .Nexus S is much better IMHO.There are so many roms that you can flash..Vibrant was really slow and touchwhiz sucked.

Vibrant better than Nexus...you are probaly the 1st to say that...lolz

This phone is awesome

I've had so many phones, just sold my HTC Raider LTE and bought this thing not knowing what it was like. The only thing I miss is HD video recording and the camera. Otherwise for a phone that isn't dual core, this puppy is fantastic. I unlocked the boot loader and rooted last night and things just got even better. I don't regret my decision 4 days in.

Sent from my Nexus S using Tapatalk 2

I love this phone too!
I've had this phone for 4 months now and let me just say that because of the devs here, my nexus s has been such an amazing device. It's pretty cool what this "old" phone can do with all the different ROM and kernel combinations available. I've gotten so much outta this guy it just blew my mind.
I've recently switched to a galaxy nexus but I just really wanted to say thanks and this seemed like an appropriate place to do it.

Thanks to awesome devs here can our lovely Nexus S easily beat lots of new smartphones with bazillion cores and tons of RAM.

Yes me too am still loving my NS that I bought at Xmas.
I'm not really interested in any other phone for the foreseeable future. I was looking at the Galaxy Nexus and thinking of purchasing one this Xmas if they drop really low, but I find the size of the NS absolutely perfect.
At the moment I'm very happy. Best phone I've ever bought.

Dear devs and well, everyone

Thank you to all of the developers who have turned this phone into so many different things over the course of its existence.
Thank you for late nights flashing the newest leaks and early mornings restoring back to stock because I had to go to work.
Thank you for 2 years of fond memories and thank you for your continued efforts. I appreciate everything everyone has done for me and for the Epic 4g community.
I'll see you all in greener pastures. <3

Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA

yes, but the thing is, my epic was dead either way, and i need another phone. why pay a 100 dollar deductible on a 2 year old epic valued at around 70 dollars, when i can pay the same deductible and get the not even 1 year old evo 3d, witch if i decided to sell it today, would bring me 200 dollars or better.
the deductible was going to be paid either way.

Austin make sure to stop in here and post when you see those great specials. My 32GB card just came today.
