ratsttam couldn't have said it any better. Execpt he might have suggested reading more! lol Seriously. Read. And the QBKing77 vids are invaluable! Watch them. Watch them again. They, frankly, couldn't be more easy to follow. There are also other forums (some friendlier than others) but...

XDA and QBking77 are your friends. Lean on them.

Try plugging the micro usb end of your data cable into your phone with the other end unplugged, then press and hold the 1 button (on physical keyboard) and the power button at the same time and hold while plugging the USB end into your pc. Yeah, I know you only have two hands but it's not like...

I use AdFree and the ad blocker in Rom Toolbox. I'm happy with them. I don't play many games though. If you play Zynga games I'm afraid you're stuck with the ads.

I first rooted for the free hotspot capability. Then found that I could freeze those garbage apps that Sprint decided I had to have. Then I discovered custom ROMs and I haven't looked back. Now I'm running Android 4.0.4 (which was not even supposed to be possible) and when I want to change...

I was running CM9 (since the beginning and had just loaded Beta3) and the FC19 modem until last night. Well, this morning really. My signal and data speeds hed been horrible lately and thought I'd try switching it up a bit so I odin'd back to FC09- still terrible. I decided maybe it was time...

Assuming you're still rooted, just go to Cyanogenmod Epic 4G: CM9 Install Guide and follow the very simple instructions. Get ClockworkMod (5.0.2.7 I believe), DL the ROM (Beta 3 released yesterday), DL the latest GAPPS (20120429), transfer to SD card. DO A BACKUP!lol Boot into recovery, wipe...

Roam Control.

I meant so that I could burn the music to disc or add to existing playlists on my pc other than google music.

I'm afraid I already know the answer to this but is there a way to copy/save music from the Google Music Player app to either my SD card or my PC?

My tethering on CM9 Alpha3 works. Doesn't always stay connected but it works.

I don't have a wifi signal within reach at home and I use wireless tethering for my internet at home. Yeah, this requires some patience, as you can probably imagine. lol Of course, I only use the internet for email, poker and these forums so it works for me.

The first 5 shots were taken outdoors. The first 2 were on 4G and the next 3 on 3G. The 6th on 3G indoors and then the log. All in the span of about 4 minutes. Edit: I lied. The first shot was early this morning when I clocked a record high 4G speed. Forgive me, I'm tired.

That little indicator on the far left in the log is no different if I run the test on 3G or 4G. I'll post some of my tests later. It does clearly say 3G in your notification bar though. Those are some sick speeds though. Could you post a couple 4G tests? PS. I'm not being accusatory, just...

So about 30% slower during the network's busier hours. That's about what I'm seeing where I live (Greensboro, NC) except I'm usually running between say 350-500kbps during busier hours and around 1300-1700kbps late night, on 3G. I did manage to clock a whopping 7507kbps (download) on 4G late...
