I was searching the forums but couldn't fine the answer. Does the epic 4g touch support 1x advance?
Thanks
I really doubt that it does being that the 1x phone will not be out till mid 2012

Hi, I live in NZ and I'm thinking which one between Epic 4g and Nexus S I'm gonna buy.
But I'm wondering if any NZ carrier is able to use Epic 4g cos they do not support 4g. By the way, I just watched one video about Epic 4g on Youtube and i saw it didn't have SIM Slot in the Epic 4g!
Can anybody tell me about it pls?
Epic is a CDMA phone, thus no SIM
Is it possible for the Epic Touch 4G to be a LTE phone with software updates or is it limited by it's hardware?

Limited by hardware. Doesn't have any lte radios inside.
That's what I figured.
Haha the woman I spoke to in retentions said my Epic 4G (not touch) would work on LTE. I asked what would happen to my wimax phone when sprint drops wimax for lte and she said it would work just fine on the new 4g. Amazing what they will say.
i tried searching and couldn't find anything. i just bought a new never activated sprint epic touch 4g and i want to use page plus, is there a guide out there for this phone ? thanks for the help.
I understand that the Epic 4G Touch may be released on the Boost Mobile service. But what does that have to do with Sprint's Epic 4G Touch? Yes is technically the same network, But until its actually released on Boost Mobile, shouldn't the ROM Leaks be about the Sprint Epic 4G Touch?
FG20, FG30 and FG31 have all been tagged with Boost. But I have yet to see any news on any website that deals with cellphone news saying anything about the Epic 4G Touch being released on Boost Mobile. So why is it that the main focus has been shifted from Sprint ROM leaks to Boost Mobile ROM leaks? I'm not going to chance bricking my phone because of a shift in focus. Why in the HE double hockey sticks are the ROM's being posted in the Sprint Epic 4G Touch section anyway?
Well, for starters, the updated modems and base software work.
Some are actually saying that there are fixes compared to ff18.
Others are saying that the "masking" of the releases are to throw the "dogs" off track.
Take your pick.
But isn't that the point? Get a new toy, tear it apart and compare?
Oh, and Boost IS Sprint...

boostmobile need another 4g phone they only have the evo on the sale site
if they do put the epic 4g touch it eill get then a big boost
The Epic 4g Touch from sprint is the same thing as the epic 4g touch on boost. Only difference is different apps, some tiny changes in MMS and other areas.
That's why the latest leaks are Boost roms. We can put it on our E4GT just fine with minimal problems (roaming / mms but easily fixed) and they are somewhat 'smoother' and may have bug fixes.
With Sprint dropping over 60,000 customers from WiMax in November who have phones using it such as the Epic 4G touch, Is it possible to do a custom ROM that will allow the Epic 4G Touch to work on the newer Spark network/4G LTE, or do I use my Epic for a paperweight.
The Epic will continue to work on 3G but Id rather buy a new phone than go backwards with speed.
Anyone have a solution? :crying:
thanks

No. LTE/Sprint Spark requires new hardware. As you stated it will still work on 2G and 3G.
And this is not the Epic 4G Touch sub-forum. This is the Epic 4G sub-forum.
I'm leaning toward a 2015 Moto G CDMA, Moto X Pure Edition, or 2015 Nexus 5. I'll just keep my Epic 4G as a backup probably.
Some news:
Sprint is planning on providing replacement phones to long standing customers at no fee sometime in September that will work on the 4g LTE network. If they keep their word, then nothing lost and maybe a lot to gain with a better phone even if it will most likely be refurbished.
So where do you think they will come up with over 50,000 phones for the customers that had WiMax only devices?
Could be worse.....they could offer us a rotary dial phone.
At least wimax will become spark in that area where it was
?
