    resetting epic

    heh, I've seen these kinds of request come in some times. If the screen is just cracked, you can always find an unauthorized repair center in your area and just have the screen replaced. Otherwise, Asurion is just going to wipe it when they get it anyhow. They get so many phones at a time I...

    Bonsai v4.1.1 General Release now available

    I like the ROM, only real thing that i've been running into is I keep getting a "application logs provider" force close loop that has caused me to wipe and re-flash my phone 4 times now. I'm now looking around for another, hopefully more stable ROM. Edit: I'm trying something else with bonsai...

    Should I jump to Epic?

    I'm hesitant about *any* new and improved electronic. The Evo was supposed to be amazing, but I was only impressed for as long as my first day working for Sprint as a tech. We don't get discounts, or rebates on cell phones (the discount comes in the plan). So if I'm going to buy a phone at cost...

    Sprint Repair List for Epic

    If you're spending 6 hours at a repair center...maybe find a new repair center? Or learn the common causes of the issues you're having to have phones ordered for and stop doing those things.

    Epic screen freeze?

    I'm actually leaning more towards a possibly not so good possibility. My first instinct is a bad LCD due to the miscoloration and the lines on the screen. However, that coupled with the freezing also indicates the possibility of liquid damage in the device.

    Sprint Repair List for Epic

    Just to add on to what paul said, tep does cover a replacement phone if you have port fail, without the insurance deductible....but only if the soldering points aren't broken off the board Sent from my SPH-D700

    Rebooting Epic 4G

    First I would check your incoming/outgoing e-mail settings with your e-mail provider to ensure that you have everything incorrect. Gas buddy could be a setting, or maybe just remove/re-install the app. Although please keep in mind that an apps stability is up to the developer to ensure and...

    i need some major help :(

    There is a good chance that if your keypad and the like still work, and a soft reset isn't fixing it, that your problem may be unrelated to your battery and you may just have lcd failure. I would suggest taking it to a repair center. As long as they have the part its a pretty quick fix. If you...

    Anyone jumping to the evo 3d?

    Seeing as how I see an overwhelming number of evos, and evo shifts, and only a very small number of epics I think ill stay put.....unless I pick up the Nexus S. That phone is a very sexy beast. Sent from my SPH-D700

    Sprint Repair List for Epic

    gitit20: I can't deny that just like every other job out there, there are sleazebag technicians that will say a device is LD/PD, even if it isn't...which is kind of dumb because we actually don't make any money when we flag a device for LD/PD. However, keep in mind that you can come to the...

    Sprint Repair List for Epic

    Note: This (very lengthy) list is provided as a quick reference, at no point should you go into your tech center and argue with your technicians because you read this list. Final discretion is always up to the technician. Any Liquid or Physical damage will nullify any authorization for repairs...

    Speaker stopped working

    Find a tech center, speaker replacement is an authorized repair - and a very easy repair at that. Your insurance covers the repair and should have no cost for you. As long as it isn't going out due to Liquid or Physical damage you will be fine.

    Voicemail playback problem

    I THINK what he means is go menu>settings>applications>manage applications>voice mail>clear data. I've used this method before on customer devices with mixed results

    Epic Sound bug

    The youtube/flash videos are a known issue with 2.2, that's one of the bug fixes with the 2.3 push - people with EVO's rejoiced today... There is also a known issue with the speaker going out, which is separate from software issues...it might not be a bad idea for you to have your phone looked...
