I've had my Epic 4g for almost two years now and more recently, the phone has been getting buggier and buggier. I haven't installed any new apps during this time. The past week the phone has failed to ring when I get a phone call. Requiring a battery pull to fix the issue. Tonight, after I called someone, I press End and the phone doesn't hang up.. I had to cycle in and out of airplane mode to fix this.
These two recent issues are in addition to the random UI slow downs, delays in response to button presses.. location updates no longer working.. all of these issues slowly developed over a period of months... I'm running latest firmware from Sprint, did not root, just the normal gingerbread image from Sprint.
Perhaps I've been spoiled by my iPad, the UI is much smoother than the android experience.. Not sure if factory reset of the Epic will resolve these issues. I do know next time I shop for a new phone, I'll take a good look at iPhone and windows...
