Samsung Epic 4G and Samsung Galaxy Become Sprint ID-Enabled


Mar 24, 2011 (Close-Up Media via COMTEX) -- Sprint announced that its Samsung Epic 4G and Samsung Galaxy Tab are currently Sprint ID-enabled allowing customers who own these devices to download a complete mobile experience, called an "ID pack" - including apps, widgets, ringtones, wallpapers, shortcuts and more - tailored to their specific interests, business needs or favorite brands in a single download.



All existing Samsung Epic 4G and Samsung Galaxy Tab owners will be prompted this week to accept the over-the-air software update for Sprint ID and Froyo in their device's notification tab. Once the update is installed, the user can find the Sprint ID icon in their Applications Menu and begin experiencing Sprint ID. All users should have access to this new software update by March 24.

The software update for Samsung Epic 4G will also include the Android 2.2 (Froyo) operating system update. This update will add numerous capabilities, including Adobe Flash Player 10.1, Bluetooth dialing and allows app installation to external storage.


Customers who purchase a new Samsung Epic 4G or Samsung Galaxy Tab can access Sprint ID from their Applications Menu when they turn it on for the first time.

Sprint Nextel offers a range of wireless and wireline communications services bringing the freedom of mobility to consumers, businesses and government users.
