It makes listening to music on this phone in the subway imposible- it interrupts playback of the music every 5 seconds by ducking the music and doing "doodly-doodly-doo!".
I'm not sure who decided that the single most important thing this phone could do is tell me when it has lost signal for 5 seconds, but they should be punished.
I listen to several podcasts that transmit a live feed at specific times during the day. Sometimes I want to listen to the live feed, but I can't figure out how to do this on my Android phone. I tried the Skyfire browser, which was suggested online, but could not get it to work. What do you suggest?
My phone is a Samsung Epic 4G running Froyo (2.2.1).
I love my Epic 4G, but it's hitting EOL soon, dual-core phones are getting more common, and I've got a Sprint Premier upgrade credit burning a hole in my pocket! I really want a qwerty phone of some kind, but the Epic 2 seems lame and it looks like the Galaxy S2 with qwerty is headed to AT&T... Is there anything else cool and qwerty headed to Sprint in the near future, or if not, what phone would you jump ship to another carrier for?
Well, upgrade time is upon me in just over a week. Now that I have finally given in and purchased SwiftKey X, I can survive without a physical keyboard, so I am focusing more on battery life as my main criteria. The battery life of the EVO is terrible unless using an alternate ROM, which I would prefer to avoid. I know the modding community is full of cool people, but the security paranoid side of me just can't trust running custom ROMs. Unfortunately, Sprint doesn't have any phones that really...

The headline pretty much sums it up. What are my options for something I can throw in my bag to give me some extra juice when my Epic invariably runs out of power when I'm not at the office or at home. Thanks.
T-Mobile's unlimited data throttles you at various degrees (depending if you got the 2gig, 5gig or 10gig plan). I'm assuming (though I'm not sure) that AT&T and Verizon have overage fees for going over some small print limit. Is it true the Sprint doesn't have a data ceiling and that they're customers will never be throttled or receive data overage fees?
I have it set to automatically download MMS but it did not. So i clicked on download and it failed repeatedly. I thought it was because i was using the built in messaging app and they were using Handcent. When my iPhone friend sent me a photo and I couldn't get it I knew it had to be my phone. It wasn't until later I thought about taking Wifi off and trying. Sure enough the photos downloaded. Does anyone else have the same issue or is my phone special?
What's the best Twitter app for Android? Kid's games for my four-year old? Also what tweaks do I need to make off the bat to get the best performance? battery life? thanks.
The Samsung Epic 4G paints a bright picture for movie lovers with a spacious 4-inch Super AMOLED display. The anti-reflective, anti-smudge and anti-scratch screen delivers vivid, colorful and crystal-clear resolution for the best HD-like viewing experience – even outdoors on a bright and sunny day – for an ultra brilliant performance every time. The Super AMOLED screen also uses less power for improved battery life.
It’s not just what you want in a smartphone, but on it, too. The Epic 4G is Samsung Media Hub-Ready (coming soon), so you’ll be able to watch everything from art house cinema to popcorn flicks
