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.

EDIT: I have one now! I hope to have a ROM up tonight and whoever wants to test first should head to the Samsung Epic Touch IRC and wait for me to pop in
Hey guys, I'm a dev over in the EVO 3D section and I just wanted to post in here just in case someone decides in a few days that they don't want their Epic Touch. I am looking to buy one if the price is right, kinda would like to keep my EVO 3D but I would consider a trade. I'd love to jump into Samsung development soon. Thanks everyone, enjoy your new phones!
I was tryin to find one on craigslist in ATL to see if someone wanted to do a swap for a 3D plus cash but surprisingly there isnt even ONE on there lol
Awesome
Nice to see the switch over

sacrificed a few bills and bought it outright. I had to have this thing. 3D was a huge let down. I love galaxy phones.
My 3d is up for sale on craigslist and in the marketplace.
Its insane how fast and smooth this thing is viper. seriously. It performs better stock than our heavily modded 3D's. Especially with emulators and cameras. Screen is INSANE
BTW, i need to remove the viper1.3 from my sig. Lol. Loved your work on that puppy.

Maybe because your e3d was so heavily modded, thats why you were having so much problems. My GF got this phone this morning and while its fast it is not light years faster than the e3d. My e3d is rooted running a stock rom and my phone is smooth as butter and has no lag. While playing with my GF phone it did'nt do anything faster than what the e3d did well except for benchmarks that I've seen and I dont have time to be running benchmarks. I dont run emulators so I can comment on those but every game that I've played on my e3d runs fine.

Gotcha. Yeah, I'm still working on RC2 so I would love to get that done before trading the phone if it came down to it. I'd love to bring viperROM to the Epic Touch, but since no one will be starting a "Get viper an Epic Touch fund", it may take me a little bit lol

Thread cleaned.
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

I just saw the Nexus S getting it and it looks pretty damn cool.
They come in twos lol. This is the development section.
We dont have any chance officially. The only way is if we get Cm9. Then you could root and flash that. Changes are cm 9 will break 4g.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Damn that blows... I was really looking forward to CM9. But I actually use my 4g quite often. Its my mobile wi-fi for my tablet and laptop... :sadface:
Honestly I don't have much faith that it will work properly anyway. Would be neat to play around with, but I don't see it being seriously useful. I'd like to be wrong though.
blahblahblah Russian Nyan Cat blahblahblah every unfitting thread in development gets 15 more minutes yadayadayada please post in Q&A
Check out the app Visidon Applock. Developer is responsive to all questions and the app works well. It is a solid replacement until we upgrade to a phone that has ics.

fudge!! and here I was getting all exited
Wow og epic gets cm9 alpha lol.
While we have better hardware all around and no ics leak or cm9 lol.
Samsung should support the flagship better . But i expect strange things from them as far as support. We wont get ics until gnec is released.
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
The hardware makes no difference. The Devs on the OG Epic have been working on CM for over a year. Just be patient and we will have a port.
The problem is that people have hounded the devs and they got frustrated.
I didn't read much about it, but im pretty sure its a port and probably wont get an official ICS update. It has nothing to do with Samsung and their top tier phones.
The OG epic devs really worked hard to get to this point ... Im happy for them they really deserve it best community ever !
.... We'll get there soon Patience is the key look how long it took for things to pick up over there for example ...
How the hell...is there another thread about the Epic geting CM9 alpha? You know, it could be because the Epic has been out for a while now, it also could be that the Epic shares strong hardware similarities to the Nexus S which has a fully working ICS. Or...maybe it's because after so many months without CM and MIUI, the Epic owners don't complain about getting updates like the Epic Touch owners. Just my theories...

I can't stop staring at your sig o_o.....boobies. She is so hot
BTW I am looking for the Devs working on the CM port, I want to help. But they are like ninjas and everyone i ask has no idea who is working on it.

Some of the more impatient persons here have sent the devs into the shadows while they secretly work on this beast of a phone. I'm not 100% sure but I don't believe team rouge is some how involved... I'm of course just going off of my own gut feeling
HOLY ****
Seriously???

really guys stop making threads like this. This is the reason why we don't have ICS I'm patiently waiting for it too. But, you guys really???
Hey guys. Theres is an Awesome ICS rom being worked on (not me). the party involved in its creation is one of my favorite here on xda. I can 100% promise you that it does exist and that this phone is not being forgotten. Just keep on keepin on and pretty soon you will all be complaining about how many ICS roms there are in the Dev section :] .
I'm on an OG Epic running CM9 right now. The Epic devs are getting so far now because we have source. As soon as the devs over here get proper source and time, the sky is the limit. A dev over there has been working hard on switching the file system over to MTD and got it running just a few weeks ago. That is really a time consuming process. Just have patience.
