hard to believe I haven't seen a single commercial on tv about this phone..and its their flagship phone now...
I guess they are focusing all their time on figuring out ways of taking things away from their best customers, and can't be wasting time on things like BUILDING their customer base...
Who's in charge over there now??????

It seems like sprint isn't doing commercial for it. Samsung is the one thats pushing commercials out for all 3 variants for usa networks.
They started pushing commercials out a few weeks back, but you really have to focus on the commercial in order to actually see that sprint carries the phone cause they mix all 3 phones together as if they are exactly the same.

I see atleast one everyday...

They are probably too busy preparing for the i-phone 5 fiasco, lol......"sigh"

I see the commercial saying that AT&T and Verizon have limits on data and T-Mobile will slow down your data if you go over 2gb but Sprint is the only one with unlimited data. Then it talks about the new galaxy SII.

I've seen them here in New Orleans too but its definitely a Samsung commercial rather than a carrier commercial.. the first time I caught a glimpse I had to rewind it.. then again to show my roommate who probably has NO idea what I was even showing her

Just some great news for the nice people here.

This isn't related to the Epic as much as it is to Sprint. I might have mentioned my mom works at Sprint. I live in Kansas City. A lot of people here work for Sprint. But, one of my best friends just got an awesome job there. Product Development and Testing. You all know what that means.

More idiotic rumors?
Sent from my Transformer TF101

slightly more informed speculation?

He said he would get a new phone every 4-8 weeks. It just means sometimes I might be able to help people decide if they should wait to use their update.

LOL, it's a Family Affair.... seriously tho congrats and keep the info coming

Thanks, and just remember, it wasn't a Dev that got the leaked LOS fix, it was someone like yourself helping out the community any way the can. If your friend wants to donate the old ones.....

That's what I do.
I get people to join sprint, they get my used phone or buy buy it cheap, and I get the latest for the reduced price and what ever I sold my last phone for. Everybody wins here in this case. Although I did buy my EVO 4g full price with a credit card, I can't justify spending 500+ on a phone ill only use for 3 to 6 months.

I live out in independence. I got a buddy who works at sprint but hes tech support. Nice to see some locals on here

lol heck no. If I ever get an iPhone that screen of theirs needs to be bigger. I'm too use to the Epic Touch's size. I am leaving for service reasons, the Epic 4G Touch is a beast!! If it were on Verizon's network, that would be the best gingerbread phone.

should have held out for the iPhone 5

Hey, I don't know if you signed another contract yet but I know for a fact Sprint is going to have a huge difference in service over the year. I mean HUGE. I mean really big difference. Like 4x difference. So, if you like the cheap prices you might stick around. Get an airave for home. If you want me to elaborate PM me.
I just don't want you stuck paying twice as much with another 2 year contract.

Your questions sound like the people who work in customer service and don't want you to leave lol. I have not decided what carrier yet but I do have ideas. I've been with 3 of the 4 majors so I know 3 services and how good/bad they are. Verizon is the only one I haven't tried but they are expensive. We will see. I can't rely on Sprint's network. I got a family. What if there's an emergency you know? I can't be getting voice mails 3 days late or text messages hours or a day after they were sent by the other person. And I live in a good service area, my bars are mostly up and I get 2 bars of 4G out of 3 bars so I just don't understand it with Sprint.

Not worth the upgrade IMO. S3 handles anything without lag, screen is perfect, and resolution is not a huge issue

IMO lte itself is worth the upgrade. Wimax in my area is very spotty and my area is in the round two markets.

Lol...you crack me up with this. I am curious to see if Sammy will still use MTP on the S3. I was reading a post from a Cyanogen kernel dev last night explaining that since Sammy chose this route their Touchwiz phones (all variants of S2) will always require separate kernels for AOSP and Touchwiz ROMs. I guess we are the only ones that can't have these great "any kernels." I can post a screenshot where it was explained in more detail if anyone is interested. It may be a reason why we have so few kernel devs on board

I think he post just for fun nothing to do with proud thing
Cause I use more data than he does and not even one month.two more weeks left

I was pretty surprised that I've used close to amount (last I checked a few days ago, 50GB). No tethering no Torrenting. But it seems that the Gallery likes to use nearly 2GB of data in the background every time I set up a new ROM or Reflash. That plus all the Roms and re downloading of apps from the Store. And more recently, the purchase of a couple HD movies and a hand full of re downloads of the Avengers movie.

77Gb on HSPA+? Come to my area Whole brooklyn gets like 0-0.20Mbit, Loading Netflix or Youtube is virtually impossible here. Called T-mobile they said they're fixing tower, well 4 Months and still fixing it? Good thing I have pre-paid I can cancel any time
