Man, I've had my ups and downs with people here, and have gotten into the occasional disagreement, but mostly everyone here has grown into an awesome group that respects one another. Don't get me wrong, a lot of people in the Nexus forums are cool, but sooo many seem to argue just to have something to say. Like, a public battery screenshot thread. My lord I forgot to screenshot screen on time, so I'm hiding something and I'm a liar, because my experience here with you guys has taught me how to properly manage Android to its potential, and get great battery while still actually using the device like a normal person. Guess I'm just venting here because of how ridiculously they go off on you for no reason.
/end rant
Thanks for reading.
Btw, the ridiculous claim I made was close to 3hrs screen on at 15hrs battery and 50% left. Maxed out at about 4hrs 15min screen on with 20hrs battery at between 5-10% when I finally plugged in. I have seen people, with included screenshots of screen on time, reach 20hrs and 5hrs screen on with the same stock battery for the Sprint Nexus (1850mah), but my claims are ridiculous.
Not sure why I would need to lie.

Shoot I've pulled off 4.5 hours screen on time with over 16 hours uptime on the epics stock battery! If I can do it on the epic, I know you can do it on the nexus! Lol... people these days, they just have to argue to be complete! Good luck zeinzu!!!
And don't get me wrong, people in the "dev" section are cool. It's the general and questions *******s that give me grief every time I post.
And the device itself is awesome. The dev of my ROM just put out a final build, meaning it's done, which is nice. Just pure, simple, stock AOSP based on the most current source code and only necessary fixes.

I think the benefit we had as Epic 4G users was that for the "most part"(not including those who came from different carriers/non Android devices. You're loved too lol) we were a compilation of Moment users or Hero Users. Moving to the Epic at first for the most part, so we didn't have a huge dissemination in belief as group we learned together for the most part. On the Galaxy Nexus, you've got a galaxy full of every Android user and their Mom from different stock and custom experiences arguing what they believe is the only possible and logical way things should work, doesn't sound too fun. But I'm sure it makes for a few good laughs.
I've my Epic for a little while longer though, so I'm content here.

It did actually but I was impressed at his apology for creating the drama. That takes a lot.
I don't see anything about the Epic anymore in the Epic forum. It's all about the SGSII, Evo3D, I'm leaving...wahhhhhhh..cry me a river please, give me lunch money back, etc.
Would be nice to see stuff about the Epic again in the EPIC forums.
I'd much rather read noobnl posts/threads than sift through more and more threads on devices like the Evo/Evo 3D/etc which have nothing to do with the Epic and don't even belong here in the first place, or people griping about how the Epic is undersupported and 'woe iz us' and proudly boasting which manufacturer/device they're moving to because of it and why and all such blather as that as if everyone both wants and deserves to read it.
At the very least noobnl's threads and the reactions within them have some semblance of entertainment value usually.
This is a great phone and there are a ton of fun and interesting things to do with it. I guess I'm just not jaded enough because I don't buy the newest latest 3x a year for full price. No offense to those who do, but the Epic for me at least has plenty of life left in it.

Yep, I agree. I'm not updating until quad core comes out. Dual core is cool, but the main feature of this phone is the gpu, which is just as good as anything coming out for thre rest of the year.

I somewhat liked that phone too. No support = boring though. We have no decent developers left because the mods here and the ****ty phone owners have run them all off and Samsung's very poor customer support amount to ****. Time to move onto a more user/developer friendly machine. Sorry you're loyalty leaves you in the past.

Peace out beotch.
Oh yeah, and its your not you're.
Too late for what? Does your phone spontaneously combust once all XDA development for it comes to a stand still? Well hell, thanks for the warning.
There has been a whole bunch of new stuff over the past couple weeks, so I apparently am not seeing where the development has become dead.
I for one am really pumped about this forum. Thanks to everyone here I rooted my phone and flashed my first rom. Going to flash my first modem tonight. I think the developers are all quality too. I'm running SRF right now and find it to be nearly flawless. I'm new to all this, and maybe I'm wrong, but a few quality devs seems better to me, as a noob, than trying to weigh through a bunch of potentially crappy ROMs just because a phone is popular. I'm very pleased about my first experience with rooting, and will likely listen closely to the suggestions of people from this forum when its time for a new phone.
Enjoy whatever you got going though, I wish you well.

I'm sure this post is bound to spur all kinds of development - you've given so much to the community that I'm sure the devs will all be scrambling to produce something just to try and draw you back in...

I hate being a troll, but I've seen way too many threads like this as of late so here it goes.
OP, In your good bye to us all you do is *****, moan and complain about the developers and Samsung. What did you add to the forum? What did you develop? What help did you provide to other users? Did you spend hours upon hours developing roms, mods, kernels and themes then providing then free of charge to ungrateful blood sucking users like yourself?
A simple "Thanks but it's time for me to move on" would suffice.

I guess for now I'll have to install the latest 'CM7'-ish rom for her, considering the Atrix still isn't officially supported.
You could always develop it yourself instead of whining. The developers owe you nothing! I know if I was the dev I wouldn't release it just because of people like you!

I am owed nothing from developers.
But when I read that a build of some ROM is coming x day, and I take the time to come home to help my mother put that on her phone only for it to (as of yet) not come to fruition, I am less than pleased with said developer.
They still owe me nothing, but they have less than my full satisfaction.
MIUI is based off of CM7 so chances are more than likely the same stuff won't work that doesn't work on CM7 for the Atrix.
Battery life is my main problem with CM7, it just wont last more than 2/3rds of a day. I've been finding myself to bring the charger wherever I go.
Here's to hoping that the developer who was kind enough to even think of getting MIUI for our Atrix devices, gives us a more solid timeframe.
It's all about setting expectations I guess. For me, my expectation of the Atrix in itself has been surpassed with the bA2tf CM7 release. I guess I'm easy to please!

Looking for pity and using your mom's well being in her phone-life to get it? You are the type that will drive slowness up for miui development for the Atrix.

The Epic was my first smartphone, so it will always have a special place in my heart, however, the time has come for me to get a new device. I got the Optimus G yesterday and it is amazing. I don't have the Epic anymore, so I probably won't do a whole lot more for it unless someone asks me to make a ROM that is unique from the other ROMs available (IE: I will not spend time making a ROM that looks and behaves nearly identically to CM, considering that we already have great CM builds). The loss of the keyboard is surprisingly not as difficult as I would have guessed. I hope to see some of you over at those forums, but to the ones who I don't, I will miss you.

X, thank you for all that you have done for the OG Epic community. Noone knows how many countless hours you have spent make these phones show their true potential. The Optimus guys are lucky to have you and your skills.

Thanks for the support, guys. I really appreciate it. I'll miss you guys.
Oops. I just noticed I posted this in Android Development. My bad. I don't think this is development.
Edit: Thanks, Kenny for fixing that.

I've been here since the Epic came out, and it's been a good run. My Epic's usb port has finally succumbed to the ravages of time, making it nearly impossible to charge - looks like I'll be moving on the gs3 forums soon. Usually, an upgrade is entirely a good thing, but I will definitely miss this community. I'm not trying to hijack Jake's thread, but I haven't done enough to warrant a thread of my own, lol
So back on topic - xboxfanj, thanks for everything you did to make an awesome phone even better. My dying Epic spent its last several months of life running CM7 with your original Crespo patch, and that is what will remain on it as it is powered down for the last time. Thanks again, and best of luck in all your future endeavors

Go with an Optimus if you can. My dad has the S3 and it is nice, but worse than the OG. I'll miss all you. Thanks for all the kind words everyone. Good luck to all of you.

It seems like it is getting closer and closer to when I have to turn out the lights on this forum.

The Epic was my first smartphone, so it will always have a special place in my heart, however, the time has come for me to get a new device. I got the Optimus G yesterday and it is amazing. I don't have the Epic anymore, so I probably won't do a whole lot more for it unless someone asks me to make a ROM that is unique from the other ROMs available (IE: I will not spend time making a ROM that looks and behaves nearly identically to CM, considering that we already have great CM builds). The loss of the keyboard is surprisingly not as difficult as I would have guessed. I hope to see some of you over at those forums, but to the ones who I don't, I will miss you.

I may be seeing you soon. Lol want to jump ship from this sprint bandwagon so bad.
Thanks Xbox for all the amazing ROMs, support, and dedication making this phone last far beyond any other phones of it's time. Love seeing people's brand new phones with inferior software than that of my 2 year old epic! Keep on keeping on man. Optimus G folks don't know what they are about to get

Kenny was refering to the discussion of other phones.. Not the Goodbye in general to Xboxfanj.
Verizon 4g lte is amazing to say the least. SwiftKey Flow is now my way of getting around the physical keyboard i still miss from my epic 4g.Even after i gave it to my girlfriend i knew I'd never have the same feeling of waiting for my favorite roms to update and getting new kernels for ICS that was the climax of the Epic for sure.. really appreciate the work you've done on the Epic Xbox, I hope the Optimus community enjoys your future work as you continue to improve their phones .

By the time I saw your suggestion, I already had my S3, so I didn't get a chance to check out the Optimus. I like the S3 though, so it's all good (trying to swap phones now would be more of a hassle than the account holder is willing to go through, lol). I must say that while I will always miss my hardware keyboard, the larger screen on the S3 makes it easier to live with. I'm rooted but holding out with the stock rom for a bit so I can properly assess the improvements on the custom roms (and so I can finish this semester without more distractions - playing with a new phone is more than enough of a distraction already lol)
Kenny - I think I'll be headed for the People's Rom first

Long story short, it's been an unbelievably enjoyable ride with the Epic 4G, but it's coming to an end for me, since today I sold my Epic 4G...
From the days of learning to obey forum rules and respect developers under the help of @kennyglass123 , to testing out various ROMs with @xboxfanj and many others, to taking simple mods into my own hands, to seeing the Epic breathe a new life with @bbelos and @Unjustified Dev in latest versions of Android, yes, I've gone quite a long way through the Android world and it's the help I received and tried to offer that truly made me grow!
Before departure, I'd like to thank again those who have helped me / I have helped, it's you guys that endured my occasional arrogance and language gap as a Chinese!
Also, thank Samsung for HAVING PRODUCED such a nice phone that accompanied me for almost 2 years! <-- which means they don't do good phones anymore
I'll still occasionally check up on here and offer a hand, but until then... Au revoir!
Ooh nexus 4. Wanna work on Sense?
Try out AK and Bricked kernel btw.

Nah, I have to use Nexus 4 daily so CM+Franco gets to stay. AK and Bricked are a bit too customizable.
Where's the Sense port? Heard of it back in the Galaxy Nexus forum but didn't check it out. I can test it out when needed

Damn Andy...do you mean I have to come back and start answering questions again? You had it covered for so long! I guess I will see you in whatever phone you have now.

Q&A is still mine, as there aren't much questions these days so I don't need to pay too much attention to the section. I know you're a good and busy moderator around your forums so I'll keep your backyard covered.
I list my current phones in my signature - any phones that we both own? I do remember occasionally seeing you in GNex forums...
