did anyone find out about Mazook? - Samsung Epic 4G Touch

Did anyone ever find out what happened to him?

I heard his girlfriend dumped him and he spiraled into depression, resorting to alcoholism and prescription medication abuse to help numb his pain.
Oh wait, that's me. No I haven't heard what happened to mazook.

I did a little research a few days ago, and saw some "suicide watch" websites, where people had been posting about him, but, haven't checked those again..He hasn't posted anything since then anywhere, so I hope that something bad didn't actually happen...

Did he just vanish from the scene or did he give an indication that something was up?

If it was an attempted suicide and they handle it the same as in my city (in Texas), mazook was probably taken to a short-term center for observation, which could be six weeks or so. Depending on behavior there, they may be transferred to a long-term facility for three months.
Without insurance, going to a state center means you will stay there every day that the state is paying for it, so the full three months.
Edit: And if they used pills/alcohol, there is a high chance that the paramedics made it in time.

i guess the issue is, no one knows if they got to him on time, let alone if this actually happened..he was very active here and on Rootz, and hasn't posted anywhere since that incident..

LOL... That is awesome

Damn, did you guys read that?! Hopefully he is OK. They tried to call him and called an ambulance. I haven't seen anything like that before. That's very disturbing. I talked to him a few times via PM and he seemed fine. Edit.. .I have to go read through my old PM's

He probably has more important things to handle right now then worrying about what ROM his phone is on, respect the man's privacy.

I am just trying to find out if he is still with us or not..I absolutely have no intentions of delving into his personal life. I just hope he is ok..

EVO Can Help You Get Out of Tickets...?

Hey guys I was watching the news today and saw this story, and actually thought it was pretty interesting. This college kid in California was using the My Tracks app on a dash mount in his car and it helped him get out a ticket that was pretty much a bogus one that a cop lied about. Check out the video in the link below!

Another reason Android > IPhone.
that only works if you weren't speeding to begin with

Oh I know, I realize that it really only records an average or the maximum speed that you reached. In this instance the cop pulled the guy over and said he was going 40 in a 25 zone, on My Tracks the max speed he reached was only 26. Just helps prevent false tickets, and you do have a good point because these days rarely anyone does the speed limit all the time.
He didn't win bc of the phone app, he won bc the cop did not remember when be last got the gun calibrated nor was trained, so sort of misleading...

I didnt see that in the story, I guess I missed it. But still he used the app and presented the stuff in court it sounds like, so to an extent it helped him.

No, it didn't. I'm getting tired of this non-story spreading around the internet because people can't bother to read and apply some critical thinking. The judge said in the source article and any article with journalistic integrity that his ruling had nothing to do with the GPS.
He posted his story here on xda last week.

I'm sure there is a similar if not the same app available for iPhone....
a better app is the one that shows you where the cops normally sit.
I was just wondering how many people have left their house in a car for any reason and not gone faster than 26 MPH!!
Article is probably falsified, also that comment probably wasn't actually from a police. GPS apps are in my experience super accurate for speeds, while police have a massive incentive to lie and screw people over.

Does anybody have dreams of their phone?

Last night I had a dream I was playing with my phone but it was all melted looking but still functional. I've had other dreams where im trying to talk to someone, I can hear a voice but can never understand what they're saying. Anybody have weird dreams that are phone related?
I see that you started an entire new thread to discuss the exact same subject that already had a thread on the pretense of providing a different link that you could have shared in that one. Is that what you "did" or am I missing something more subtle and clever?
One op already changed his title. Ill edit it make another discussion I wanted to start anyway.
Clearly all chips in relation must transfer all diodes in harmony.
I dream about getting laid on piles of money. If my phone jumped in there and tried to distract me....I would have to end its life.
Does stuffing them in a sock and beating Dan Hesse till he fixes data speeds count?
Los Angeles data speeds 130k down, barely measurable up? I get better speeds in Tijuana. That is putting ice sculptures in the McDonald's bathroom.

Anyone else fed up of complaining posts?

Ive had my One X about a week now. No problems, hardware or software. If the phone is faulty or you dont like it THEN RETURN IT!!! Dont clog up XDA with *****y posts!!! Rant over.

I plan to. Thanks for the non-informational post. Unfortunately some places don't take the phone back without taking a 25% restocking fee. So its not just that easy to RETURN IT!!! (unless you're getting it from a European carrier on contract for free).

Oh, the irony. A post complaining about all the complaints.
Some people are on here looking for easier fixes (like software fix) for their issues, rather then return/exchange. Returning phones with trivial software problems will only lead to higher prices in the long run for everyone.
It's a new device and bound to have issues; they all do. The GN's front page looked like a toxic waste dump for the first couple of weeks. There's value in the complaining as volume helps figure out whether an issue affects one device, a percentage, or all of them. Things should die down after a while.
I agree that the constant duplicate threads where people won't or don't search are annoying. That and those that think their experiencing the problem somehow makes it more significant than all the others experiencing it before them.

[Q] Overheating issue fixed or not.... urgent

My friend is bringing my Gnex from Hongkong to India, he says its overheating alot making it unusable, now i saw this issue in many threads but no one has mentioned any resolution/fix/replacement etc
what would you all advice me,
Its fixable with change of radio, kernal, basebands , ROMs
or
I should get it replaced
more than 100 views and losers can't take a minute to reply its normal or not.
If it regularly overheats with normal usage on stock firmware, you need to get it replaced.
morons joined forum just to get help and not to help others.
Overheating issue is there in mine also , mostly in the cam region . But now weather in hyd is also quite hot so might be an added effect .

how much hot is it ?? would you say warm rather hot, caz here friend says its so hot that he can't put it to ears to listen calls.
Its not worth risking it, even if the replacement does the same thing. I would get it replaced personally.

There were some google documents that covered this very issue. And if I remember correctly google would replace units with no questions asked.

Since I have no clue what the issue is I'm just replying for no reason, to contribute nothing to the thread. This way I can avoid your harsh opinion that anyone who reads your precious thread and doesn't have any help for you a loser.

[FILE] System.4ext.tar

I AM NOT RESPONSIBLE IF YOU DOWNLOAD THIS FILE AND START MOVING THINGS ON TO YOUR PHONE IF YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU'RE DOING.
System.4ext.tar (zipped)http://d-h.st/6hg​
Pulled from my stock Nandroid backup.
Requested by reviewers, I figured I'd post it in the open as well in case anybody else needs the file.
File is large (657MB) and contains all system files for the T-Mobile Samsung Galaxy SIII (T-999). I've compressed it (BEST setting), I believe the actual file size is 994MB, to try and make the download/upload a bit less harsh.​
Is there a way to see the actual progress of a dropbox upload?
Since the file is so large, it required I use the desktop feature. I dropped it in the dropbox folder on my PC and it started syncing (toolbar icon shows upload speed and current time....but it has said 1hr since I started. The speed keeps moving, so I know it's working, but it has been over an hour since I started).
I'm wondering if it was closer to 2hr.
Sorry it's taking so long guys.
EDIT- As SOON as I posted this, my toolbar icon displays 59 minutes lol. It's getting there!

I don't know him at all, or probably anyone in this portion of the community. He asked me for the file, otherwise I would have had no clue it was even valuable to anyone. I felt since he asked for me to keep it exclusive for the time being, it would be fair to do so, but only for this weekend.
If this is against the rules, however, please let me know and I'll fix that.
He asked me via PM so I was just keeping my word.

Over in the SGS2 forums we had "Revolution." He kanged so much and caught so much flak that he ended up leaving in a rage fit
Yeah, after getting several PMs about the situation, I'm going to return the link to the page.
It appears (from what I'm getting) that he was upset he did not get the phone yet and was trying to gain access to building a ROM before anyone else.
This is an open community and the more development opportunities, the better
Sorry for the whole situation, the link is back up.

False, I never not produce anything that's "not functional" so relax besides 1 thing we're calling was glitched. It was passed then get over it. I learned much since then.
Yes. Samfirmware which releases the OTA's "Odin Images" via his site/twitter.
