Samsung Releases Source Code to Epic 4G Touch

Posted Sep 16 2011 by Scott Webster in  with 2 Comments



That didn’t take very long, did it?  Samsung has already released the source code to their brand spankin’ new Epic 4G Touch (Sprint), giving anxious hackers a fresh set of tools to play with.  If you’re the type who likes to create custom kernels, then you’ll need to head over to Samsung’s Open Source website and download that big .zip file.  (Serach for ‘d710′ and you’ll find it).  Oh, and you’ll also need to get your new Epic 4G Touch rooted.  Any guesses as to how long that will take?
