Re: Your opinions on the Epic Touch 4G

propaganda good luck with that phone... imo the best phone is the phone that does everything i need it to do and more and does it flawlessly without any issues so if that phone does exactly what you need it do then thats the best phone for you to have

Re: Your opinions on the Epic Touch 4G

Pros:
Gorgeous Screen - Way nicer than any phone I have ever had (EVO, Evo 3d, etc...)
Nice hardware - Thin, light, feels good in my hand even if it feels a bit slippery.
Crazy fast - No lags, boots in seconds, loads programs insanely fast
Camera - This camera is pretty awesome. It focuses fast and takes really nice pictures (Im not a pro photog but they look good to me) video is nice for a phone too.
Software - Touch wiz isnt nearly as annoying as I thought it would be. TW Launcher is not that great but thats what ADW is for right?


Cons:
Radio(s) seems to suck - I loose radio randomly sometimes multiple times a day. I reboot fixes it but I am considering trying another Epic just to see if i have a lemon. I also have spotty wifi reception with my phone.

I dont know if sammy can push out something to fix this as it seems like others are having some similar problems.

I know i can fix it but Samsung not having a way to silence the shutter on the camera is lame.

There are some kinks to be worked out but overall I think the phone is amazing.

radio you can fix manually and wifi hotspot is now free with hack but its 3g only for now and my wifi and signal are fine so maybe its your area and camera "shutter sound" has been fixed and its posted on xda.

Do tell about the manual fix because I have tried almost everything to get my phone tonot lock out of 3G and drain my battery at night. My Wifi connection turns off all the time and so does 3G. Anything new Ill try, just want this phone to work.

How does this help anyone else who wants to do it? Why don't you make a thread explaining how to do it, that would be more beneficial to everyone. Just sayin...

Re: Your opinions on the Epic Touch 4G

I find it totally awesome that I can swap the battery from the Epic and into the Epic touch while the 1800 mah battery charges in my old Epic. Priceless!!!

Re: Your opinions on the Epic Touch 4G

I feel the browser needs more work to it, if you double tap a page to see text better it takes about 5 secs for it to work on my phone, watching videos straight from the browser is painful, if you double tap on page to see video better the whole video stops and you have to refresh the page, anyone experiencing this, and also everything is on mobile view, how do I disable that, it's not in the settings, besides that.... It's great!!!

Interesting cause the engadget video didn't show any slow downs in the browser when zooming in, you sure it's not the page your loading?

To change UA string to make it look like your browsing from PC, u should be able to do this....

1. Go to Browser.
2. In URL box type about:debug (no http:// just that) hit enter.
3. Menu/More/Settings
4. Scroll to UA String and change to Desktop then back out.

Hope this helps!
~Mike
