My epic keyboard seems to miss words when i type fast

My epic 4g seems to miss words as i type fast. I have to like take my time and then type to make sure all the words come out correctly. This is rather annoying. Im useing the new gingerbread leak eg20 or something like that, do they have a fix for this keyboard problem?

Nope we need gingerbread source to implement that fix. Stick wth frozen 1.2 if that is a big issue for you it has the fix baked in.

Is there a way to get the keyboard patch without using a custom kernel or rom? I dont care about OC or UV.......most roms end up going haywire on me in a matter of days after i was tricked into thinking they were stable for me lol.......and eg22 i learned my lesson by bricking my phone completley and having to order a replacement.........now that i got my epic back all i want to do is a simple root to remove certain apps and add certain apps as well as fix the annoying keyboard problem........any help?

I bricked my phone on my first attempt at flashing EG22 and the first thing I did when I got my epic back 3 days later was successfully flashing EG22 and a tester...... I love rapid exchange =]

That post keeps getting brought up as the one to use but it says this in the post
"Remember, this is EC05 Android 2.2 ONLY. And you must have a compatible kernel. Just flash it through clockwork!"
EDIT: i just flashed the speed demon patch on stock ec05 rooted and it appears to have done absolutley nothing , lol.

you need a compatible kernel for it to work, try a custom rom like sfr 1.2 or midnight 5.5.
im on midnightrom 5.5 and can vouch for stability and patch works great on it.

Don't update to new OTA if you want root

There is a rumoured new update coming out. Of you are rooted or want root please hold off as you might lose your root ability. Just a warning of friendly advice.

Yeah. I just got the phone today for my wife and it updated while it was charging before I could root it...which sucks since rooting it played a HUGE role in the decision to get this phone.
I'm guessing I could really break something if I just tried the unrevoked/alpharev/revolutionary approach regardless of the fact that I now have hboot 0.98 huh?

****, I was afraid of that. Now I wonder if I should try to return it and try again...damnit.

Is the update going to try and force itself or will it does it have to be a manual update?
Also, if you are running a custom rom will this still effect people, or just people running stock root?

Unless things are different from my Original Droid then custom roms don't need to worry about it since most of them have OTA updates turned off.

If it is a stock based Rom without OTA removed...then yes it prob will...and you will lose root...you can remove the update service yourself with a root explorer app

How long for the exploit on 2.3.4 since we already have 2.3.2 done.
Sent from my ADR6350 using xda premium

My crystal ball says it will take 3 months and 9 days to find the next exploit, and 4 months 15 days for the next patch that kills it.
It seems that one of the biggest benefits of custom roms are freedom of forced updates. I guess this is the answer to all the people concerned about getting s-on for the event of a return.

Wow, this thing pushes through without user consent? Holy crap am I glad I'm running CM7.
Just a thought - would users who have received the update against their will have the option of flashing the previously released gingerbread RUU? I'm guessing that even if they could, they'd still be stuck with the updated hboot and therefore unable to get s-off. I'm not really sure how all that works though. Anybody smarter than me have any thoughts?

The new OTA is pushed to your phone but it offers the option to accept, postpone or reject.
I am rooted (stock rom) and made the error of accepting. After the update my phone would not boot completely (erred with white triangle, yellow exclamation point, blue android). You can follow Conduitz's fix found in this thread: http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1233267

NOOB Question
If I want the update and could wait for Root (have root now), how does one go about getting S-ON again? I used the alpharev method.
thanks in advance.

Is root actually ready?

My opinion and my opinion only:
I rooted my phone the second zedo posted his first kernel. Overall it was running good. At first I thought the issues people were having with loss of signal and data lock were due to the root but have since seen unrooted phones have the same issue. I however never got the LOS or data lockup.
Yesterday I returned my phone for a new one and have not rooted it. I still havent had LOS or data lockup but what I do notice is SIGNIFICANT battery improvement over being rooted.
Rooted battery at best was draining 6% an hour. More often was average of 1o% hour. Battery after battery calibration lasted 14 hours
Unrooted battery as of this minute is draining 2% an hour. This battery should be on par to last over 2 days but realistically will be over a day Im sure.
So my personally opinion is dont root till a) theres a way out and b) it doesnt require a kernel push. Something just doesnt seem right having to replace a kernel to achieve root. Never had to do that before and dont plan on doing it again.
Also, get a usb jig before rooting to avoid the triangle splash screen and counter.

Yes, samsung released official root yesterday.
In all seriousness though, root is no longer experimental when it is reversible. At the moment, it is not.

Ok I am using Zedomax's V2, which is the overclockable Kernel with root and CWM. After flashing I did the Data reset which involves the ##...# code listed in the forums. My phone is rooted, overclocked, and running flawless. Most of the issues, other than the data loss(fixed with the data reset), are due to people doing things they shouldnt do... Like doing a factory reset in CWM without having a rom to flash afterward. This is what is causing the bootloops. If you follow the directions and dont get too ambitious you will be fine. That being said... if you are concerned then just wait until we get the stock tar so that if you do mess up while flashing anything you can flash right back to stock. Personally I believe most of the issues are user error.

I would wait until there is a way to go back to stock. Then u could try. In reality though we should be flashing a custom recovery and not a Complete kernel. Then for root u flash the su.zip. then you can flash a custom rom/kernel or stay stock with root.

No Update

My wife and I have the same phone, both have cwm installed and rooted.. Today she got a upgrade to Android 4.1.1 and mine is still 4.0.4. I checkd mine and it say my phone is up to date. What is up with that... I checked after the update and her phone still has root..

Never mind. After clearing google service framework in app manager, it worked, downloading now.. BTW what is the big deal on this up date? As I haven't noticed much difference in looks anyway..

It upgrades the software from Ice Cream Sandwich to Jelly Bean.

JB runs alot smoother. ICS was a great upgrade from GB lol.. But JB overall is smooth, quicker, and above stated has changed. But run what you like to run. only opinion that truly matters is yours.

I'm running JB, but I thought there was a physical difference, like the OS looked a lot different. But it still looks like Ice to me..

As far as i know if u are rooted and try to take the jb update it doesnt over write after it install the jb update for me it reboots into twrp recovery I reboot im still Rooted on 4.0.4

When can I expect to get update
My wife and I just upgraded to the Galaxy S III last Friday when Sam's Club had them for 96 cents (we couldn't pass up the deal). I have gone about as far as I want to on setting up the phone before I get the update. As I ran a none standard Epic 4G I never received software updates from Sprint. My question is when can I expect to receive this update????
I need to root the S3 so that I can finish setting it up.

Samsung Galaxy S® II (Sprint) Android 4.1 Jelly Bean Official Upgrade

Just came across this: Samsung has released the Jelly Bean update for the SPH-D710 phone. It is installed using the Simple Upgrade Tool available thru their site.
Samsung has released a new Android™ OS version for the Samsung Galaxy S® II (Sprint) (SPH-D710). Jelly Bean 4.1.2 software version GB27. Please follow the instructions below to download and install Simple Upgrade Tool using your Windows PC.
Unfortunately, the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update for the Samsung Epic 4G Touch is not available over the air, and those of you who want to download and install the software upgrade will have to do it through Samsung's site/software. It seems that the downloadable content is just too big to be pushed OTA, at least according to Sprint. If you ask me, I think that the carrier doesn’t want to bother with rolling out the Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update over the air for the Epic 4G Touch because the phone was launched two years ago and it doesn’t seem to be a priority.
The Android 4.1 Jelly Bean update van be downloaded and installed right away. In case you want for details about the matter, you can check out the Sprint support site HERE.
Title: Sprint_D710_GB27_JellyBean_SimpleUpgradeTool.exe
Applicable Model: All SPH-D710 Models ending in SPRSEP-D710AAASPR, SEP-D710ZKASPR, SEP-D710ZWASPR,
SEP-D710AAASPR, SEP-D710ZKASPR, SEP-D710ZWASPR, SEP-D710AAASPR, SEP-D710ZKASPR,

SPH-D710ZWASPR, SPH-D710ZWXSPR ( Carrier or Corporate Customer Sprint)
Description: This is a software upgrade for the Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II (SPH-D710). This software will update your Galaxy S II to GB27.

Thanks for sharing

Tried installing followed directions and it got stuck in start up boot loop. Computer Odin into recovery, wiped all data flashed the previous rom was using as DD and now it shows Baseband Version heading GB27 and the rest of the builds from the rom. Not a total success so I can't say it worked or didn't just informing of my results.
Even though it says GB27 I just saw QBKing77 has uploaded Official Android 4.1.2 Jelly Bean GB27 Update on Samsung Epic 4G Touch Review (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=u1Bt55Ngass&feature=em-uploademail) to which my phone does not have these changes. I think some are very cool but love running 4.2.2 and they way my phone is now.

I havent seen this since the samsung moment days.
and later also using it on the transform. Those were fun.
if i remember correctly you can swap the tar file out with a dif tar and it should flash it like odin. well i guess in that sense it is Odin lol.
But dont take my word on it lol.

Just noticed the OP says something about the reason this update is not OTA through Sprint because this device is "2 years old and is not a priority". This is not true. The reason the update is being pushed this way is because the entire internal SD is wiped to accommodate the differences in the partitions. A regular OTA simply can not achieve this. Hence the reason for a over the wire update.

I just installed the Jelly Bean update on my S2, mainly bc I just got the phone recently after I cracked the screen on my previous phone. I'm new to rooting, and just had a quick question to ask... I have already rooted my S2 and i've been looking through all the roms available, but are there any ROMs that can be used directly with 4.1.2 and the GB27 modem? Or do I need to downgrade to use any ROMs?
Thanks

You need to post questions in q&a(kennyglass, I can sense your presence!). But the answer to your question is yes, there are many ROMs that have 4.1.2 and in order to use a Jellybean ROM, you HAVE to have a jb modem. Look in android development for this phone lots of choices for 4.1.2. Read the OP correctly and flash away. Good luck!

Did this update cause GPS issues for anyone else? I installed this on my wife's phone and now she can't lock on generally. If she can lock on, then she loses navigation after a minute or two.
I saw another thread about GPS issues here. Is my only choice to fix it rooting? I root my own devices (my original Epic 4G and current GS3), but in general my wife likes her devices stock. The non final ROMS I ran and issues I had on occasion have led her to be resistant to the idea.

Try updating prl and profile then reboot and use the gps test app to get initial lock for a few minites and it will lock fast after that. Also you can be stock rooted dont need a rom. I keep going back to stock rooted, mostly get rid of sprint bloatware and run adblocker.

I think there must be something physically wrong with her phone. I did the prl and profile updates, to no avail. I used qbking77 videos and rooted then installed a new ROM, flashing an ICS modem like they recommended, and it sees 0 satellites.
My intention now is to revert her back to the stock ICS and run it to a Sprint store and see if they can't be of any assistance. Does the S2 work like the S3 and count when/if you've flashed any custom roms?

It does if you flash with Odin. I'd run Triangle Away just to be on the safe side. Make sure you do it before you unroot however.
