USB port is defective?? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

My brother owns a Samsung Conquer and the phone started prompting to choose what type of connection he wanted (charging,usb ect). It would also turn off and on by itself but do it constantly. I tried resetting it but it still doesn't work. I have tep but on my e4gt. What are my best options? Will Sprint want to charge me for fixing it? Thanks in advance for your POSITIVE suggestions

What????? Also YOU probably should look up sprint's policy on servicing devices experiencing hardware failure as opposed to posting nonsense in the wrong forum about a topic that can be better answered by looking at 1. Sprints website 2. Sprint online chat 3. Sprint telephone support (*2 from your sprint device!) or 4. By any employee at a sprint store... just saying... should all of those options fail there's this new thing they tell me the kids are calling "the google's", that may also help...

Why do you guys have to be such snooty little bags of DICKS? Just answer his damn question. Or nevermind, I will....
Sprint is now packing in an app called Sprint Connection Optimizer on many of the latest OTA updates. This will make it check for the best connection to use in this order: (Wi-Max Market) Wi-Fi, 4G, 3G; (Non-WiMax market): Wi-Fi, 3G. This is an effort to free up capacity on the data network for people who are just stuck on 3G cruise control when they don't realize better connections are available around them, such as WiFi or WiMax. Our 3G network is starting to vomit all over itself, so while we wait for the long-term solution (Network Vision) to roll out, they are using the Sprint Connections Optimizer as a short-term band-aid solution.

Is there something else wrong I could be doing? Verizon gets awesome 3g coverage in my area, I've had someone next to me with a verizon phone test their 3g speed and they get around 1.5mbps down, I try on my sprint phone with the same prl and I can't crack .10mbps.

I'd say it's pretty much confirmed and should be released in the next few months when Sprint's new network updates are completed in those markets. For sure by June this year.
By then the sgs3 will be right around the corner making this nexus a bit outdated.

Anyway, have you tried to get a free unlock code from ATT?
Firsty, wrong section.
Secondly, search on xda or google for an answer to your question. Already too many threads on the internet.
Thirdly, if you are frustrated about AT&T charging you like crazy then switch providers.
Lastly, if you still have any concerns, read this post all over again.

Not sure that will work and might brick your device. The hardware is different so even an unlocked AT&T phone will only get edge on T-Mobile.

Not sure if you read any comments on that page but if Google were to buyout any carrier it would probably be best to buy T-Mobile like some of the comments there are saying.
AT&T could not buy them out because they already have so many different companies under their belt. Why not Google? G-Mobile would be a brilliant idea!

Only bad thing I see is dish networks involvement. I have them for TV and they suck! They drop channels over petty BS which with a phone provider would be crappy if they decide "oh we don't wanna support so and so any longer even tho our customers really enjoy it and use it daily" >_<
Their AMC dispute really irked me when their big mouth CEO went around claiming he knew what his customers liked. "Our customer base is mostly rural families not the kind of degenerate low life's that watch TV shows about nazi drug dealers and zombies in new York" obviously you don't watch breaking bad or the walking dead, since breaking bad has nothing to do with nazis other than Walt's alias is Heisenberg and the walking dead takes place in GA which is a long way from new York. If there were any other options out here besides directripoff or dish I woulda switched providers in a half a heartbeat. I think Google would be best to partner with someone already in the business, either a larger provider like sprint or a smaller one like metropcs or straight talk and use their existing infrastructure as a jump off point instead of building a new network with a satellite TV provider that can't even keep their TV up in a storm, and their HD lags and digitizes/buffers atleast 2x and hr, makes me wanna throw my remote at my TV cuz it always lags right at the best part of the show :banghead:

My guess would be their high-speed satellite internet band which I believe is In the 1500mhz area but I'm not 100% sure that's right. I need to check the FCC info pages for what spectrum they currently hold.

AWS-4 spectrum is quite varied. But the Dish S-band satellite spectrum that has been re-classified as AWS-4 spectrum is currently 2000-2020 MHz x 2180-2200 MHz.

My exact thoughts!
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda app-developers app

Not happy with sprint... the last straw...

I have been constantly having problems with sprint. I love the S2, but I never get reception, always losing signal. Slow to no data. (yes I called them to have the fix the problem but no help. Last week I was on hold for 6 hours, not exaggerating at all).
I called sprint again today, and they would not upgrade my phone. They said I bought it in Feb, and they would charge me $280 to break out of contract and $200 for the new note 2 phone. ($580, they are nutz...).
they wouldn't pass me onto retentions either. They hung up on me 4 times during my phone call. Stupid russion speaking dwarfs from yugoslavia or something...
So I canceled finally, and they didn't even do ANYTHING to try and keep me as a customer. I have been with them since 1999.
So... I will pay the break out fee of $280. But I feel it is a relief to get away from them. Sprint has gone down the toilet, and I am not going to be held hostage by them anymore.
So... Anyone have any suggestions on what to do now? Legal suggestions only please. I still have my S2, so if there was a way I can prepay activate it somewhere .....
OR what is the best bang for the buck wireless company now? I kind of wanted the new note 2 or I can wait for the nexus 4.
Thanks for letting me waste your time.....
I'd probably swallow any loss that you paid to Sprint and move onto T-Mobile if their coverage is nice in your area. $200 for a 2-year contract or buy outright from Google for $300-350, not bad. Just gotta wait since they're on back ordered.
Unfortunate that you experienced that type of customer service from Sprint. I've had nothing but great deals with them every time.
I was looking at Ting... I guess they have a beta program where you can bring your device from sprint. Pay as you go no contract. You get credited the following month for stuff you didn't use.
The epic touch 4g is one of the 5 devices currently supported by ting.
