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
Get viperboy an E4GT!!!!!!!!!!!

Pathetic... If you want to sit and make out with your phone, get a room, rather than subjecting the world to your courtship...
Thread cleaned.
My buddy at work has a iphone and he has this app called "iFunny" and I was wondering if there's a android app that's comparable? Its got the most hillarious stuff on it. Its right up there with fml if not better. As always thanks guys!
Theres LOL Browser thats pretty good.
Its just what I wanted. Thanks aaron130!
Lol, no problem!! Its a really cool app!!

Probably not, these are new age modders who think just because they have a certain device it should come with all bells and whistles that take a good 6 months to develope. Did I mention they want it now!!!

Well, devs are staying behind because we are all starting to see how the game is going. Too many Android phones are coming out at once and money ain't coming any faster. I'm sure if people paid devs to come dev for the device, we'd have more devs...so if you want to pay for someone's E4GT, go right on ahead. If you don't want to, just wait it out. This phone is already pretty sweet and the problems we do have, a dev probably won't be able to fix those..so..yeah.
This phone is sick dude, just enjoy it and be happy that you don't own a device where you have to depend on the devs just to be able to get through the day.
Having it from release date, the OG Epic did NOT have terrible development. Just not the development some people wanted. And there were "some" people who were ungrateful and rude, like with any device. This one already has great developers, and we are slowly getting more. Be patient.

The Epic scene was pretty good. A lot of people came from that Evo...smh, the Evo messed the whole game up if ya ask me. Now people willl sit around and say their phone is garbage if it doesn't have the same dev scene that the Evo had.
Little do most people know that the Evo was damn near the same device as the Desire, N1 and Dinc. So most of the reason why its scene was so great was because a dev from any one of those phones could just port their roms over and all they had to do was swap out the hardware files and the kernel. Other than those 2 things, everything was damn near exactly the same.
Yeah I think we just have to be patience

I've seen a few well known devs from the HTC Evo post here, so I'm pretty optimistic.
Viperboy is coming. That's another developer for you!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using Tapatalk
what do we really need here? cyanogen and miui and stock roms. that is asking alot but that would be epic. for now i am loving starburst. love asop but don't remove touchwiz launcher and widgets. just my opinion.
I had the First Epic and the Dev's there were GREAT. We may not have had as many as some phones like the Evo but the ones we had did great work and who needs 100 roms to choose from when the ones we had did the trick. We had some great Roms and Themes and the fixes came pretty fast.
I have not rooted this phone yet mainly because I have not felt the need. The only thing I am missing is WiFi Tether. I am sure when this LOS gets worked out and the devs get their hands on the original source we will see much more. I am grateful for anyone that helps make this phone better, but it is pretty dang good out of the box. The best I have ever had.
Where did u hear that from

OG epic scene was great.... kinda started slowing down with the whole froyo debacle, because it was pretty well known sammy was already working on ginger.... so evsryone was waiting for the final, correct source.... still are i think... i gotta check... gf has my epic and id love to see a finished gb...

Now?? pffft what are you talking about? They want that **** out on launch day! wtf you slacking devs that dont get paid and do this all for free?? Get back in the sweatshop and do work that requires more thinking than a sweatshop worker in china but gets "paid"(donations) less! These devs should worship us and do what we tell them when we tell them! When a phone is released that very day we expect EVERY MOD imaginable, every "bell and whistle" and a choice of at least 10 roms and 10 kernels..

sense is pretty hard to get working on a non HTC phone. I dont think I've ever heard of a sense rom (that fully worked right) ported over to a non htc phone(at least that I know of). It's not impossible(from what I hear) but it is very very very difficult(so I hear)

Is there any chance of getting webos on our epics? I think I remember hearing something about this before but don't remember what happened. I did a quick search but didn't come up with anything.

Doubt it
It took forever for miui (another OPENSOURCE variation of android)
I believe web os is closed source so no

Well, there was the unbrickable mod thingy tha would in theory allow us to flash different bootloaders or something, in essence we would be able to run a Nexus S 4G rom.

If something could be done that would be awesome. Don't get me wrong I love my epic but sometimes I miss the sleekness of webos. I miss the wave launcher and cards. I have the wave launcher app but its not the same and I did find an app called itching thumbs which is supposed to put cards on your android. Its cool in theory but to much of a pain to use.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using Tapatalk
If it is just the look and feel you want, wait for the ICS port. The multitasking by swiping Windows to the side is incorporated into it. I believe some WebOS developers were hired for that.
I am currently making an app to become more familiar with Android. Anyone know the best forum to get ideas, help, and constructive criticism?
Sent from my Epic™ 4G Touch
Not to sound facetious but I believe you're on it. XDA is as in depth as it gets imo. Any info I've ever thought about or needed has been here and most often given direct guidance by recognized devs. Good idea though, we can never have too many informative apps out there!
Sent from this phone
What you mean informative
I was thinking of making a e4gt ROM app with a compilation of all the current apps, modems, themes, etc. but I dont have the resources to make a online directory so apps can be updated independently from the app
Sent from my Epic™ 4G Touch
That would be a pretty handy app. Do you plan on having the latedt roms/themes/kernels downloadable through the app, or is this something more ambitious? Whatever your plan is if its E4GT dev related this is the place to be!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA
Yes, it will stay updated with the lastest roms, themes, mods, modems.
It will have a marketesque feel to it
I woul suggest getting something inplace that can be installed and tested and then get a thread going on the dev section. I have no knowledge of android os or any kind of app dev for that matter so i cant give you anything other than that.
