Must have apps - Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

Hello fellow forum buddies. I have a Samsung Epic 4G that is currently rooted on Stock DI18. I tend to switch back and forth to the DK28 leak and flash roms quite often when I get bored or what not lol. I have a gift card left over from the holidays with $3.41 left on it (just a regular visa gift card). Since I'm probably never going to use $3.41 at any store or restaurant I thought hey I could use it on the Android Market. I have most of the paid apps for my rooted device that are a must have except widget locker (still debating). Wonder if there is any other good - great apps out there that are a must have for this phone. I also have ADW Launcher EX and Launcher Pro Plus. Just thought I'd throw this question out there to see what I could find. I appreciate everyone in this forum and what you do that help me and others learn about this phone and other phones. On a side note I found out today that my wife and I are having a little baby girl!!! Thanks for all your help.

Thanks man and yes I know they don't stay little for long lol. I either need to hit the gym or buy a gun for when she starts bringing boys over lol. Yeah I have root explorer and that is probably my favorite app I have that I bought. Do you have widget locker and if so is it worth it?

If you ever find your self with ****ty reception I recommend roam control. This allows you to force your phone to roam.

I love Roam Control. Spent a weekend in the mountains and was getting terrible service. Roam Control helped save the day.

Roam Control will definitely be on the list for the future. Don't plan to go anywhere that I don't already have service in right now. I do have a quick question though to you or to anyone for that matter. An AOSP lockscreen for Rooted Stock DI18. Anyone have the link. I won't be able to search. My turn to make dinner but that's what XDA email notifications are for lol. Thanks.

just sold my EVo 3d and got an epic touch! any recommendations on roms? thanks in advance!
I'm running Starburst. ViperRom is great too. Both are actively updated at least a once a week (fixes or full updates). The former has Touchwiz, the latter has GO Launcher.
I tried every rom I could get my hands on, and Midnight ROM is definitely the best hands down (in my opinion of course). Right now I'm just running stock kernel with cwm and a stock rooted rom, also flashed the No CIQ update that's out. A few custom tweaks like running cpu profiles and the phone runs like a dream! My only complaint is the LoS issues but that doesn't seem to be affected by the kernels/roms; and I don't get it very frequently so an occasional reboot is no big deal...maybe a good thing if anything! Good luck flashing, buddy.
Starburst rom is great this is my second Samsung phone. First sprint try them all

Just downlkad it to keep up with the updates. Do you have an accent. I'm from the East coast and it understood me fine. It's alpha so its to be expected.
I hope they update it to work with the search button.

Actually, considering how short a time it took Dexetra to build Iris, it is a very impressive app. I have the first version (different from what you can get from the market) and it is hilarious. More for fun and developed in one night!
The version on the market, released only a week later is already 100% more capable which is a pretty tremendous growth cycle. Give it a month and I bet it is on par with Siri which has been around a very long time. There are also a half dozen other options available (Voice Actions, Voice Search, Vlingo, Assistant, etc.) They are all pretty decent.

If you are on StarBurst, you can set any of them to be default on search long press (or any other app for that matter.)

No, no accent; I was going to keep it just for the updates, but I figure its gonna take awhile until it works really well. Until then, its voice dial/vlingo/voice app
Guys "Jeannie " destroys Iris. Voice Command Plus is the paid version and has quicker responses. Its a plain interface but I haven't stumped it yet. You will probably like it better than Vlingo or Speaktoit or any of them

Switch Tasks like Ice Cream Sandwich

I REALLY like the ICS task switcher.
I have the ICS+ launcher and it works great
I want to switch tasks with a button though
I currently use TaskXP to switch apps
Any suggestions?

Does the "Long-Press Home" feature not work in your Rom?
(It basically does exactly the same thing, no?)
*Also, it brings up the full task manager shortcut as well, in addition to all your recents...
I use "long-press home" second to only the search button, probably.

Ok, I guess I'm dense: I've used ICS for a bit on this device with a couple of the international betas. I've also used the ICS launcher from TeamSyndicate or whatever...
Please lmk what is so groundbreaking and so different in the way ICS handles taskswitching..
If I remember correctly (and I easily might NOT be remembering this right), all ICS does is present your recent apps in a nicer, larger, vertical list after pressing the button for it once instead of the way Gingerbread handles it (presenting them in a grid after long-pressing home).
If there's more to it, please let me know.
If there's not, then you basically started a thread that's complaining about the fact that you have to long-press a button right now, and that you really can't wait until you only have to simply press a button, because that would make your life so much easier.
Did I miss something?

task switching is awesome in Ics
It sucks on Gingerbread
It's the ability to have 20+ apps running at a time and switching between then in a heart beat

John, I can't for the life of me figure out any difference (besides looks) between the Gingerbread version of it and the ICS version:
it's just aesthetics, IMHO.

Yup pretty much. Also there arr settting. In launchers that can enable. Up to 16apps or something to be listed in that menu. Same thing, just a few more appz and it looks slightly different. How ever ICS does ring lots of new things in a ALL IN ONE download that plays nicelu with each other. Before you would have to flash several things and spe. D some serious time changing settings to get what ICS already offers which in its self is awesome. Especially for people who have a line and cant always takr the time to flash tons of things and config the more mods everytime a rom requires you to wipe data which gets old really damn quick in my book. Maybe im just getting older or i have owned android too long but i dont like re setting my phone back up. I didnt use to mind it and now i dread it. Atleast even when switxhing between different roms on samsung for the most part you never need to wipe data. In that respect compared to HTC i find Samsung much better and that makes the device worth it right there. With HTC you would loose everything all the time when flashing new roms or even updates. Not to mention you would loose things like your WiMax key's and have to get a nee device just to use Sprints ****ty 4g agan.... Hahaa ok ok its not that funny, more sad about HTC but laughing is how i cope with terrible old memoryz

Just a better way of previewing running apps. (Currently only shows recent apps) Also, you should be able to close individual running apps by swiping left/right. Either than that, nothing really new

Im so dyslexic i had to fly to a neigboring island every single day to go to a school to specially for dyslexic kids. I cant help it. I do spell check but i dont see words the same as normal people. You guys are dumb and mean. I even tried using auto correct on my Swift X keyboard but i often spell words so off it outs in some completely different word than i want so it ended up being harder to read than if i dont use it. You shouldnt judge people when you dont know whag personal challanges they have or whats going on with them. Just ignore me instead of insulting me. Im very proud of the challanges i have over come to the extent i have over come them. I have accomplished several things that teachers said i wouldnt be able to do. Things like reading and writing well enough to get through the basics of life. I have learned to build custom desktop computers, started my own VHS to DVD converting company and am a semi pro downhill and free style mountain biker. XDA is full of dicks that say things on here they would never say to some ones face. Get a life and treat people with the respect and love that you would like people to treat you. Then again you may not have much self respect or dignity by your actions of how you treat others.

Im in your boat, but i thought about it and its like, what would you go to? Downgrade to a GN with no SDcard slot and crappier camera?
Well eventually get ICS, MAYBE CM9, and when ICS is out some roms based on it. I wont spend hundreds just to get ICS a couple months early on crappier hardware.
I may sell it in the summer for a GSIII depending how that looks, but i wont side/downgrade.
Any reason why you guys didn't post this in his screen fix thread directly? He's still responding to questions over there
I really don't get the whole ICS gig! People act like it's the second coming of christ! I mean WTF! Lol this device is already awesome with outout christ or ICS!

Understandable, (un)fortunately there really isn't a better option unless its the Exynos version or the GNex, and i like the term "side"-grading because that's really all it is. What's bugging you about it? I think I'm GLAD that I can take a rest from all the flashing and sleepless nights battery calibrating finding the best combinations of roms and kernels (this is my first android, coming off 4 years of Bberry). How will a new device change your user experience/expectations?

I just came from the Nokia n900

I just came from the Nokia n900 and having so many things working on the phone is a refreshing change! Ive lurked around and read a lot! As a result ive succesfully rooted my phone and have even tried out a few custom roms! However I have a question about a ROM im currently using but I cant post in the dev forum yet so I figured ill try here. Im currently using the digital warfare ROM and ive noticed that my powersave feature does not seem to work correctly. It will kick in regardless of the battery percentage I set. So ive just left it off for now. can someone help?

First I want to give you huge props for actually reading and doing all that on your own instead of posting a ton of useless threads with questions that can easily be found! But to answer your question, the My Account app has its own power save feature, try going into that app and adjusting it from there or just disabling it all together. Hope this helps.

Welcome to the family.
This phone is pretty beast, and it will only get better.
Thanks! I can tell! making the transition from hw Kb to all touch is kinda weird but this.phone is so capable and powerful its awesome!
Welcome dude and yea i would just disable this phone is great with battery life anyways. One suggestion tho i would freeze tmobile my account all together in titanium backup or uninstall it tgats if u have it installed it actually messes with wifi. When your on wifi it will turn on 4g signal whenever data is requested which isnt good cuz u think ur using wifi the whole time. Ever since ive disabled tgat app i have not had a problem with wifi or 4g service. I actually think its a way for tmobile to snoop on our data. I made a thread about this and other people have confirmed this app to be the culprit. I actually was gonna take my phone back because i couldnt get wifi to stay connected so thats when i started investigating and found this
Hmm I like to keep track of my data usage but if thats the case away it goes!

It's not unusual for a phone to get warm when running cpu/gpu intensive processes like games. It only becomes a problem when it gets incredibly hot and forces the phone to reboot or the battery gets too hot to touch.

Thanks. now i'm having a new problem. My phone will just randomly shut off and I cant turn it back on until I pull the battery. It has happened twice so far
is your phone hot when this happens? try darksides kernel. haven't had an issue.

not hot. i just flashed his new rom/kernel combo with a clean wipe and as i was messing around with milocker it did it again. just shut off on me. only way to bring it back is to pull the battery. very strange.
You using a new ROM? I know you said new ROM/kernel combo but that could imply same ROM new,kernel. If youre on the same ROM, check the thread to see if its an issue with it I guess. Could always try a new one and see if that fixes it. Let us know if you find out anything.

I use 3G Watchdog. It's available in the market. Has a nice little widget as well.

I know this has been asked over and over again!

I have a SGS2 Epic Touch 4G.
I need my phone for my business, I’m a computer hack well I don’t do that for a living or maybe I do..lol!
I need a stable ROM were almost everything works, I need to tether my laptop to my phone so I can VPN to my clients (I do have PDANET which I bought and works just fine for me).
I need the phone for eMail, messaging and oh yeah phone calls to work all the time.
I love tweaks just like the rest of you the more the better!
I just flashed Calkulin’s ICS 1.6 which seems very stable after 3 days but lacks tweaks.
So after this long intro which build do you think would be best for me?

I wonder if you can install kobridge's tweaks on Calkulin's ROM. You might check out his thread, it could be what you're looking for.
See if this is any help

Oh, and the Headset Button Fix would be nice also!:laugh:

Alright, now you're pushing it! LOL Just kidding, I'm not aware of a headset button issue. Maybe someone else who is can chime in.

You're welcome if it isn't exactly what you need you might be able to ask kobridge and get his help.

I did a whole thing on this issue back when I first bought this phone last september. If you have a headset that has a button to pause music and answer the phone then its a well maybe not a big thing but it is a thing that always bugged me! Thanks for the reply!

Ohhh, okay I can see that being an issue if it isn't functioning correctly. Haven't seen any recent mention of it (until now) but I'll keep my eye out in case I run across it.
Its funny but that old thread is still alive after all this time: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1348504
Now I just have to find my HeadSet!:laugh:

Blu Kuban is what all the cool kids use, and it's super versatile. It's really stable, customizable and has built in tweaks. Rujelus22 constantly updates it so that it's running in top form. Could be just what you're looking for.

+1 on the Goodness. I'm a big fan of Mijjahz and Team Nocturnal in general. I'm running the Blend ICS 4.0.4 FF18 right now, and its amazing. Highly suggestable. Don't know why I didn't mention it sooner.

Phantom 4.1 gb edition all day. Tried almost every ics rom out there had the best success with this FBI based rom with everything working and fewer amount of bugs

I just tried AOKP for the first time last week and its running great. Lots of options you can customize too.

Thanks for all the replies! I'm pretty happy with Calkulins.e4gt.2.rom.v1.6. It seems very stable and so far everything works plus after a few charges the battery life is pretty good. I installed Apex Launcher and it tweaks everything!:victory:

You can't go wrong with Calkulin's work losing him to another phone/carrier was a real loss for the E4GT community.
