It was recommended by the site that I introduce myself, so here i go!

My name is DP. I've been interested in, upgrading, building, and modding PC's since I was 14 (introduced to computing on the Atari ST and Apple IIc). Now I'm an Android enthusiast and greatly desire greater knowledge of what all I can do with my Android based devices!

TEACH ME, GURUS! :-D

Thank You Paul! I feel like I should start by rooting my Epic 4g and I've been having problems just getting the device recognized by my computer when connected via USB cable! I've installed the drivers supplied by the Samsung website (so far the only one that's worked at all is the one for model code SEP-D700ZKASPR, and even it has proven un-reliable) and frequently get a balloon message saying that the device is malfunctioning. Do you have any thoughts or tips for me?

Its always given some users great difficulty getting the drivers and the Epic 4g to recognize. I for one never had a problem when I had my Epic. Keep trying different cable/port combos.

Hit up the Epic 4g forums and take as look around for more ideas. Its been discussed before.
