Does anyone know if the getprop method of getting the MSL will work on the epic?
I need the MSL so I can load a custom PRL to force roam on verizon. Would you still load the prl using ##775# or is that a htc thing

Tried plugging in the ear buds and no sound coming out while using phone or listening to Youtube. Also can't find any settings that need to be turned on for headphones, so what gives? I know others are using them, so how'd you get them to work?

I am on my third epic and still having the same problem. My notification light worked fine when the phone was first activated and slowly stopped working altogether. I also bought my girlfriend one and the same thing happened to hers. That's four phones in three weeks. I can't be the only one that is having this issue. Anyone else? My setting for the light to pulse is checked. I have also done a factory reset.
View 11 Replies View RelatedHas anyone had this happen to them? You place a call, and when you're done you attempt to hit the big red "END" button, but nothing happens? I've actually had the call counter tick off an extra 20-30 seconds before it hangs up.
Given that this is the main screen and not one of the capacitive buttons, I find this behavior very strange.
I can't for the life of me get auto correct to work on my epic. I have it the auto correct checked in every setting imaginable and it still won't work. Does anyone else have this issue or a solution?

View 5 Replies View RelatedEvery now and then the End Call button will refuse to work (it doesn't even get highlighted when pressed), usually for up to 5 seconds. As you can imagine this can make ending a conversation considerably awkward. Any ideas as to what would be causing this? I first thought it could be the proximity sensor/screen lock, but the screen would have to turn off when this is in effect, which it doesn't. I can see the screen perfectly, I just can't interact with the End Call button. Is there any other way to end calls?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI'm writing a little dhcpcd hook (script) and was wondering how could I get some properties into it. Getprop doesn't work in dhcpcd's "environment". I can see some hooks are setting properties with setprop (that works) but getprop just doesn't return anything. What am I missing?
View 3 Replies View RelatedSuperSU works fine and grants permission to Root Explorer which also works fine.
But 'getprop: permission denied' is shown in front of most of the headings in 'Phone information' tab in MTK Droid Tools.
And when I click 'Root' button in MTK Droid Tools the following message is shown 'ERROR: SU inaccessible'.
I have granted permission to ADB Shell in SuperSU.
If I manually open adb shell I get $ prompt and then I type su to get # prompt.
I think that maybe permissions of some files are not ok.
I have rooted my captivate first using unleash the beast and then used ryan;s one click lag fix. I would love to get the new update but it will not work. My question is can I get some simple step by step method of returning my phone to stock so I can upgrade it? I know there are a ton of posts on this but some seem fragmented and people use explanations that seem to assume that the people reading them are at the same lever of understanding that they are. All I want do is return my phone to stock for update and then root is again in the easiest way possible without bricking my phone.

Its encouraging to hear statements like this one....

I'll definitely be purchasing mine launch day. The 31'st can't come soon enough!
I'm struggling to understand why startActivity runs properly when copied from a tutorial I found and fails when I make the smallest change.
Code from the tutorial:
CODE:........
That works. When I try to change it to what I would consider a simpler design, I am getting an error.
CODE:........
The error is: The constructor Intent(FirstTwoApps.ButtonHandler, Class) is undefined
Notice that all I did was moved the action from the handleButtonClick() method to the onClick() method. Apparently that is not allowed, but I don't understand why.
In Android when I am adding a view object like ImageView to FrameLayout view and then immediately trying to call layout() method to repositioned the added view object it is not working. But when I call the layout method alone after some new event e.g. touch event then layout() seems to work. This also happens when bringToFront() and layout() is used together, layout() does not seems to work together with other method. Is there any reason why is this like this? Also instead of adding view object in the middle of the screen can it be ADDED at some specific location in FrameLayout?

View 3 Replies View RelatedI didn't worry about it till today. but i was useing my phone while it was charging. but it got pretty hot today. enough for me to go download a app to see the temp of the battery. it said like 108? and right before i took at battery 118? idk if its right but it was pretty hot. and i am sure its not good if its getting that hot. i was listening music through blue-tooth, on the internet with wifi and thats it really. i put it in the fridge for 5 mins hope that wont hurt it but i need help and what should i do to stop this? please let me know. im using the charger that came with it. it was got warm when i charge before but i dont think this much.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI've been through three different car mounts so far, they of the "universal" variety... one with rubber side clamps, one padded, both with feet underneath... none of them were to my liking... didn't hold my Epic well enough, either fell out (thankfully while I was monitoring it) or felt like it could if I hit too big a bump. My question is if anyone has found a really good car mount yet, specifically for the Epic preferably? I prefer a windshield mount, but I'm willing to consider other options if it's sturdy and I can position it decently in my car.
View 8 Replies View RelatedI had pretty bad battery life today, took off the charger at 11:30, just plugged in at 15% 11 hours later, with a short charge in the car on the way to a late lunch. No text messages, no emails, no phone calls . I got a few apps off the market, did a little web surfing, & watched one 4 minute youtube video. This is my first Android phone, I had a HTC Touch Pro before this. BTW - The lack of comms today is because I'm not working right now, but in the middle of federal hiring process with the next appointment on the 13th, wish me luck. Bluetooth, GPS, and wifi are always off. Screen brightness is left at the lowest level. This is all shown with the Power Control widget on a home screen. I also have the Samsung Program Monitor widget on the same screen, and nothing stays running. Auto sync is always off, I rarely actually use gmail. The stock email app is set to check two other email accounts every hour.
I tried a little test, but just don't know what to make of it. I have Battery Monitor and Android Manager Free installed. Whenever I mention Task Manager, I accessed it through AMF. Before beginning, I removed the Weather Channel widget from the home screen and terminated the app in the Task Manager. I had installed a BBC news app today, but uninstalled before testing; it automatically updated a couple times today and showed up in Task Manager after I terminated it. I made sure Background Data was turned off, I generally only turn it back on when I launch the Market (gives a popup saying it needs it). I plugged the charger in with the phone at 26% charge, just for a minute to reset the last time unplugged. Using Battery Monitor (which apparently just shortcuts to the built-in Android battery monitoring screens found through Settings) I checked the status periodically, along with seeing what was active in Task Manager. Every 5 to 10 minutes I would press the power button to turn on the display, then check Battery history - Since last unplugged. I'd check the Task Manager, terminate Battery Monitor and AMF, then press the power button to turn the screen off............
I just got my new epic a few days ago.Coming from a Black Berry this is a new world for me.Can you guys suggest must have apps?
