When the first Gingerbread leak for the Samsung Epic 4G reared its ugly head, there was a terrible initial reaction. Not only did 4G data not work, but there was GPS, temperature, and charging issues with the ROM to say the least. Now, there’s a now ROM in town. Gingerbread build number EE03 has just made its way online, and things are already going… Read more
Your average Joe type Android user probably won’t find much of interest here, but hackers and modders are gonna love this. Samsung has taken the time to release the Froyo source code for not only the Vibrant, but for the Epic as well — Yes, the Epic doesn’t even have Froyo quite yet (the OTA was announced today), and the source code is already… Read more

I understand most carrier’s… Read more

Samsung has said via Twitter that their Tweet, which was essentially the same thing as the press release, pertains only to devices in the UK. As I said earlier though, it’s still a good sign for Galaxy S devices in the US. End update. Before you go and get too excited on… Read more
I’m curious about how many of you were out there (or are out there right now) for Sprint’s 8:00 opening on the Epic 4G launch day. Stores across the country have or will open early, selling the QWERTY-packin’ WiMAX version of Samsung’s Galaxy S for $249.99 after contract and rebate, and we want to know what you think. Have you bought an Epic? Did you try a… Read more
