Does the epic touch has any diferent software from galaxy s 2 ?

Ok so last year we got all galaxy s phones in major carriers with diferents software , like sms on screen for ATT the look like puzzle in such , I got a unlocked Samsung galaxy s 2, at first I didn't like it but now it actually feels good and probably would like to use as my main device ( sprint is my first carrier) my question is if the software for the phones are the same, I like the lock screen, it looks like windows 7 i can go to my new sms or missed call and music control if I want to , is the epic touch the same ? Thanks

I have both the EU SGS2 and Sprint E4GT. Both have the same stock lock screen, which display missed calls, texts, etc, before you unlock the phone (as displayed in your photo).

No problem.
If there are specific SGS2 apps you would miss, check for them on a Sprint store E4GT. Some SGS2 apps didn't come over to Sprint (e.g., some of the Samsung apps). And, of course, Sprint added some of their apps onto the E4GT
That said, the overall experience is very similar. I loved the EU SGS2 and feel similarly about the Sprint version.

Received a free Galaxy Nexus from Google!!

The company I work for is a direct partner with Google. They were in our office today for a quarterly update. While they were here they gave a free unlocked Galaxy Nexus to the client leads of the top 3 (highest ad spend) accounts. Luckily I was one of the 3.
I am coming from the Samsung Galaxy S2. Right now I have to say that I am surprised at how similar the two phones actually are. But I am loving the full ICS experience found on the Nexus.
Anyway, just wanted to share my story. I'm excited to see how the development section for this phone turns out.

You got the GSM version (with original packaging).
Enjoy it! It's a great device.

congratz dude!

Are you in the US? If so, I'm surprised they gave you the GSM one. But it's awesome.

Thanks guys! I'm pretty excited.

Yeah, I live in Denver. It's funny you said that. One of the guys who won one is on Verizon and he tried to activate it with them. Verizon said it wouldn't work on their network. He asked Google if he could swap his unlocked GN for a Verizon GN and they told him they didn't have any with them or at headquarters.

Agreed. He is debating his options over the weekend. I think it's funny considering he can't use his GN because he is on Verizon. Ironic...

Interesting. I just texted my coworker to get in contact with one of our reps at the Mountain View location to see if they can swap it out. The reps that visited us were 'positive' they didn't have any Verizon version on hand.

Haha I've actually acquired about 10 of them over the past couple of years. Unfortunately, this is my favorite one to date. I have a few black ones and red ones I don't wear if anyone wants them. One medium and the rest are larges.

I actually have a LTE version that I want to swap for a GSM one. I have T-Mobile and signing up for a Verizon plan would cost me over $20 a month extra. PM'ing you. I'm still debating going with Verizon, if only to keep the 32GB of space.

Congrats enjoy Google

Congratulations. I'm jealous.

@sn0warmy
Could you post your build.prop for us so we can see if it differs from the normal UK imported GSM versions?

I was going to take a screen shot but I'm not sure how. So here are some specs, let me know if it's something else you are looking for...

definitely. going from ics on my vibrant to gb on the sgs2 has been super painful. especially cause i'm using my vibrant for testing app development so i still see the ics on it all the time.

I think the S3 is a better phone, it just needs to be rooted. I wouldn't trade it for the Nexus.

I would trade my nexus for gs3, want to trade with me?
Sent from my HTC VLE_U

The S3 is a newer phone with updated spec. What is it that you don't like about the S3?
I think the potential is there once it is rooted and gets injected with some sweet custom ROMs.

I just miss my gnex. Stock jelly bean and pure Google. I liked the phone better. And I'm getting $100 with it.

If you want a Gnex, simply trade for it. If you're going to be looking at your phone multiple times a day, you better make sure it's the one you want.
So what if the S3 has better hardware? If you want the Gnex more, the S3 isn't any better in your own POV at the end of the day.
Edit: and since I provided you with such wisdom, you can compensate me with the $100 you'' get from the trade

s3 doesnt have a customizable nav bar and will always be behind with android updates. Not to mention all the already great roms that have had plenty of time to work out any kinks on the nexus. The only thing I really want on my nexus is a memory card slot, Ill take a better camera but the one is has is pretty damn good for a phone anyway.
Id say take the trade, when I was looking for used phones the nexus was around 300 and the s3 around 400 so you fit right in there getting the extra bill.

Here's the ad for the one I'm gonna go for. I found a better deal, this +$110. This phone hasn't been used.

He says factory unlocked, his boss won it as some prize. I live in Canada on Rogers so would a factory unlocked just come from Google? Or aren't all Google phones factory unlocked?

Does any one know when the 4.3 Leak will get here for T-mobile galaxy note 2. i see the one in the AT&T forum. just wondering how long before we get this Leak

no firm dates but rumor has it between now and the end of the year..

At this point I've about given up. Not upset by any mean but come January I'm jumping to the nexus 5. Too bad the note 2 is awesome

If the Note 2 is really that awesome as you call it, why jump ship? Heck why worry about the software update at all?
Just saying. It is a great device but i wont ditch it just because an update takes a while.
I have a HTC One, Nexus 4 and Note 2.
When i put 4.3 on my HTC One i made that my primary phone. When the Note 2 gets 4.3 ill make that my primary for a while.

Guess that sounded disgruntled. Sorry bout that, didn't mean to come off that way.
It's just that I've had android since cupcake and the longer I continue with android the more I realize one of my favorite parts is the expedited progression of it. Over the years I've become quite find of the updates. I guess you can say it's become something I look forward to. It's not that I loath this device by any means but my preference is leaning towards the update facet of it. The only logical conclusion to meet my happiness is climbing aboard the nexus train.
Why is the right door always locked?

That makes more sense.. I was like, whoa, this guy thinks the phone is awesome why is he jumping ship. LOL.
I think im in a unique position working in the wireless biz fixing / repairing them and buying and selling them. .
Im looking forward to my Note 2 getting 4.3. Im actually going to make it my daily phone for a week just to test it out again. My Nexus 4 was my daily phone as well till i put 4.3 on my HTC One.. Its a natural progression.
Now i see your whole statement in a different light, less angry and more hey time to try something different..

Nah.. not angry in the least. I think I'm just ready for a change of pace that's all.
