[Q] Lost Phone - App to locate? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

I lost my E4GT after installing the AOKP ICS ROM. I remotely installed an app called Plan B to locate the phone, but I found that it doesn't work with ICS. Does anyone know of an app that I can install remotely through the Play Store that will work with ICS?
I'm feeling quite screwed at the moment. Any help would be appreciated.

Thanks killaphatboy. Sprint Family Locator has helped me to determine that it's within 500 yards of my residence. I live in a city, so that's still a wide area to cover, but at least I know it's not destroyed/run over.
BTW, Lookout needs to be installed PRIOR to losing your phone for it to work.

how about plan b?
no pun intended its an app also by lookout, can be installed remotely after losing phones.

He was correct that plan B is intended to be installed after you lose it... He just forgot about the ics issue lol

Lol I had a similar experience but unfortunately Family Locator helped me find my wife's phone AFTER I ran over it... Fortunately it came out if the experience with only a few scratches. Even more fortunate is that my wife hasn't lost it sense.
But in answer to the OP I'd say sign up for the free trial of Family Locator to find it and then install Lookout for the next time. Good luck! Hope you find it!

GPS Enable is another good app to have installed when you finally find it. It allows you to enable gps through a txt msg. Android Lost is actually a better tracking app than Lookout and it is also free.

Actually, Android Lost allows remote install after being lost. So I would suggest using it as it can do alot from a computer to find it.

Android Lost looked great, so I took your recommendation and push installed it. But like Where's My Droid, my text commands aren't working. My phone is probably running out of battery power by now, so I better find it quick!
I'm going to continue the search in the morning.

I use Cerberus. It is really nice. It only costs $4 for a lifetime license. It has nice features like being able to hide the app in your app drawer. It can also be integrated into your rom with a flashable zip from their website, I have not tried that feature though. I have it set to take a photo with the front camera and email it to me when the lock pattern is entered incorrectly 3 times in a row. I have some pretty funny photos of my 4 year old attempting to unlock my phone.
I just realized that you already lost your phone. I don't know how I missed that because you stated it so clearly. Cerberus is a great app, but it must be installed before your phone is lost. Sorry for the confusion.

Mystery solved
I found my E4GT....it fell out of my dash when I stopped at a light. I have no idea how it got up in there. Maybe I put it on the dash and it fell down through a hole, or maybe it defied physics and fell on the floor and slid up in there. Regardless, I'm ecstatic to have it back. I can return the new E4GT that I bought to replace it ( yeah I liked it that much).
I'm running Lookout and Cerberus now in case I ever lose it again. I like that Cerberus takes a photo of the culprit if the lock code is entered incorrectly. Thanks to everyone that offered sugesstions.

Must have apps

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.

Jumped Ship!!

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.

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.

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

Only if you go in the market and download really shady apps. Just be careful when downloading apps and always read the reviews.

I also wonder this too. Besides getting malware from the app market, can you get a virus from using the browser or from email like on a PC?

In theory, yes. In reality, no. I've yet to come across a virus via email or on the net for linux. To us the user base may seem large to us but it's really not. Though with Androids growth the story may be different in the near future.
at this point, a virus would still be more ''lucrative'' or ''productive'' on a PC. that's not to say that with the increase in cell usage we wont see them some day. just be careful of the sketchy market apps that capture your personal info. they normally come in the form of a task killer/battery saver. in my experience, they've always been tagged with ''droid, boost, turbo, battery, drain, saver.'' i work in a sprint tech center, so i see em all the time. as a cell phone guy, they stick out IMMEDIATELY. and of course im sure you already know that your phone came out of the box with a terrible virus.

The most likely place to get infected apps is from non-market sites. Google recently found and removed about 10 or so infected apps, and a week after, appbrain still had several of them available for download.

[Q] G/F Friendly Set-up

Hey guys, I got a Nexus a few months ago and passed the Epic to the g/f (which I regret). Anyway, I have AOKP 35.1 on it and she is having issues. Maybe I forgot some Epic flashing routes.
The phone has EI22 baseband and I am looking to find the best g/f friendly rom (one where I can flash for her and have zero problems).
What do you think is the safest set up?
*Its been a while since I flashed on the Epic. I am on EI22 and I see EL30 is the newest build for GB. Do I need to use odin to get that, or can I just flash on top of EI22?
**I see FC09, is that the newest official?
Try cm7 or the peoples rom. The peoples is TW based it really is a matter of taste. I have my wife on CM7 which she loves she hates TW.

She prefers TW, and I was thinking the Peoples Rom. Where i get lost is all of the MTD, BML stuff. I dont remember having all of those options before.
What is the process to go to the Peoples from where I am? AOKP with EI22... I think EXT4 (is there a way to check?)

If you're on aokp you are on mtd... fc09 is the newest ota release... if she likes tw then clean gb el30 (she will be bugged by update message) or the peoples rom 2.2 (fc09) would be the best way to go...
Backup with Titanium Backup, download The People's ROM v2.2 MTD, wipe data, cache and Dalvik. Flash, choose to use or not use the Sprint Connections Optimizer, sign in to her Google account to sync contacts, restore her third party apps and only data she absolutely has to have...like Angry Birds high score or something...lol.

So far all issues were resolved with clean installs, V 6 Supercharger or turning off the Optimizer because of bad 4G due to Sprint. 3000 downloads strong, seems pretty solid to me but I may be biased.

She just gets nasty over some stupid crap sometimes. Plus, she travels a lot so I don't get much chance to work on the phone. Anyway, that was a year ago.
My lady likes to run whatever I am on. I find this useful for troubleshooting. If I can't recreate an issue on both, it's not a real issue. I made her sit on stock unrooted for a few days last month when she got a replacement phone from dropping it, and she couldn't wait to get back on an ICS rom. She made it through the random reboots on gb leaks, so anything out these days is easy for her to handle. It really depends on the individual. My techy ways have rubbed off on her over the years lol. She is smart enough to use her ipod (i know...) on wifi with a free messaging app to ask for help in the few situations that confuse her. She's a looker, does laundry, is a great mother, works, and cooks extremely well too! Needless to say we are getting married this July. I'm not sure exactly why I waited 14 years to ask her when I say it like that lol.

I cant agree with this strongly enough, though I may not have gone as far as saying no root.
Just remember, ANYTHING that goes wrong will be your fault, even if it has nothing to do with the phone itself (ie: tower down for upgrade, facebook update breaks the app, etc)

AWWW man ok thanks this sucks i hope he gets the it up and going again... its makeing me mad lol not really just saying:silly:
damn, I really wanted to review his battery saving tips tips as i am already down to 84% after 2 and a half hours of the lightest use possible
EDIT: never mind, another classic case of a developer comparing apples to oranges. I am not going to name names but if I was to run those settings on the ICS rom I was running, I would get well over 24 hours of battery life. What is the point of having the convenience of Google wallet, if you have to fumble around in the menu turning on and off the NFC every time you use it. What is the point of having a Samsung based JB rom if you are going to turn off almost all of the Samsung baked in goodies (animations, S beam, ect). Might as well run CM 10, have NFC turned on and still have respectable battery life.
Don't get me wrong, he has done great work on this port but its like saying my 800HP small block chevy will get you great gas mileage.....if you bolt on a 2 barrel carb, limit the throttle travel, and under drive the blower.

EDIT: never mind, another classic case of a developer comparing apples to oranges. I am not going to name names but if I was to run those settings on the ICS rom I was running, I would get well over 24 hours of battery life. What is the point of having the convenience of Google wallet, if you have to fumble around in the menu turning on and off the NFC every time you use it.

I agree. Always seemed stupid to me to essentially turn your phone into nothing but a basic touchscreen without the added benefits of what makes the phone great.
To each its own. I for one flash JB TW to have what JB offers and what TW offers. For that CM10 is perfectly fine.
