UBER NOOB QUESTION, yes i know.
As the title suggests, I have no idea what phone I have lol.
Got it through sprint as Galaxy SII. Well I google that and it does NOT look like my phone. My phone looks more like the "Epic 4G Touch". Then I thought that just MAYBE they are the same phone.
BUT
What makes things more confusing is that there are different forums here for each phone, and I am not sure if I should be looking at the Galaxy SII forums OR Epic 4g Touch!?
If you got it from Sprint and its a GS2 ... you're in the right forums

Epic 4g touch= sprint sgs 2. So yeah, you should use the epic 4g touch forums.

Thanks for not flaming me to hell lol.
I wanted to make sure I was looking at the right stuff such as ROMs, kernels, scripts, and themes for the right phone. Now I have peace of mind and can root and flash away!!
Thanks!

That's actually a very important question to ask if you didn't know. Some Epic Touch users tried flashing a different SGS2's ICS build and got all screwed up

I... I don't know what to say...
He actually ASKED before flashing...
I'm without words...

If you are going to root, do not do like me and just start going on a rom rampage. To extend on that statement, I traded into this device and it was rooted... it was just a few days after the release so obviously no cure or stable rom at that point. Long story short... I have messed up and fixed a lot of things with this device already and it only cost me a few long nights and making my wife hate me. So that is why if you are going to root, make sure its worth it.

I won't flash any ROMs until there is an actual stock ROM available to go back to... One that doesn't borrow anything from the international rom's...
But I gotta ask, what happened during your ROM rampage?
ROM RAMPAGE! theres only 3 roms to choose from! Wtf did you do!?

He probably got it mixed up. If you read his other posts he's obviously a newbie at this and probably is talking about all the mistakes he's made while trying to root. OP Be careful what you say around here it's easy to get flamed over not knowing what you're talking about. I hope you take the time to read as much as you can and try not to ruin a perfectly good phone...

So I've been reading around about the status of the Cyanogen mod port for the GSII. I'm switching to sprint this week and will love to have CM7.
Last I read was that Kush had the phone and is making the recovery work for the phone and then he was going to hand it off to other devs.
Now come the idea. Wouldn't it be easier if the devs had 2 phones so different teams or devs and work on it simultaneously so for example teamhacksung can port CM7 over while kush or someone else is doing there thing.
That's why I propose a pot to get the devs another phone so they know we aren't a community of deadbeats.
I'd be happy to donate $20 - possibly more if funds allow (I'm in college)
Anyone else?
good idea, i got $25 on it
They wouldn't take the money...

I am currently running the EL26 modem, it works ok. Is there any better modems out there? was looking at the EI22. Not sure I can make the switch. Any help is appreciated.
I am happy to be a new part to this forum..

Odin to the ec05 modem and then flash the ei22 modem.

Is this a better modem than the El26? I have tried EL29 it was even slower.
Thanks for the quick reply.

you sure you are in the right forum? this is an epic 4g forum EL26/EL29 is for the E4GT
Wrong section. Dont flash EI22/EC05/anything for the original Epic. You have an ET4G.
Herp.
Better check the forum you are in vs. the phone you has!!!
EL* is not for the Epic 4G, but rather the Epic 4G touch (at least that's what I'm being told)...

[edit]
Bah, looks like I'm a lil late.
Well I have an epic 4g touch. did not think there was a difference? My bad

And last since there are CM9 nightlys how long til some MIUI v4 betas pop up?
Just a couple of things I am hoping / looking forward to seeing coming previously from the Evo line....
