I have had problems for many years in my house. No matter what I do my cell phone signal is ridiculous in my basement. I have contemplated getting one of those cell booster antennas for my house but I don’t want to throw money away if it doesn’t end up working.
I have seen many commercials for a gadget that you insert in by your battery that is supposed to help but it is on a infomercial so I am very hesitant.
Do you have any suggestions for solving this problem?
I love Android phones. They rock in comparison to Blackberry, and IPhones. I have never owned an IPhone, but I have tried one out, and I am not impressed. I have now had my Epic 4G since the initial release of the phone. I loved the phone. When they released the updates for the phone everyone believed that it would help address the battery issue. Well, I know that I can state successfully that my Epic 4G still has a serious battery issue. I have gone into the store a few times, and they have told me that it is charging, and there is nothing wrong with the phone.
Rubbish I say.
Sprint seems to have a way of forcing people to do what they want. They are still just like any other cellular provider in that they require a contract, and they usually don’t do anything that they will lose money by doing. If you own a phone that just isn’t performing correct they will do everything they can to get you to purchase a new phone regardless of whether or not the phone is a piece of garbage. I am not saying that the Sprint Epic 4G is garbage, but even with the full Flash Player capabilities I know that things like Facebook games still won’t run.
One of the biggest things that I don’t understand is why did Sprint add a $10 charge to phones that use data for surfing? I may have been a little more receptive if there was a 4G service available in my area, but since there isn’t I am using the same service as a regular phone user in my thoughts. Sprint has gotten a bit greedy as far as I am concerned. I am of firm belief that the cellular carriers notice that people are on the net, and texting more because of how the cellular phone has evolved, and that is why they want to jack up our rates.
I anxiously await my new phone that should be arriving this week. I will tell you how that performs in comparison to the Epic 4G. I can’t wait to hear the ECHOooooooo!
What is your thoughts on some of these issues?
Hot off the presses! This is better than diamonds, gold, and tanzanite jewelry. FROYO is here.
Ok… I know that we have been waiting for like… a long time, but the long awaited Froyo Update for the Epic 4G is finally here. You can choose to wait for the OTA update that will be sent out between February 21 and February 25. This is according to information that was sent out by Sprint.
If you choose to want Froyo now, then you can download the file from the Samsung Download Center by Clicking Here.
NOTE: You need to have DI18 on your phone in order to do this.
Now you ask what to do with it. Well, after downloading the file follow these steps:
You now have Froyo… EB13 on your phone, and didn’t have to wait for the OTA update.
