Well the time has come, I've had 12 replacements for everything from crooked screens, power buttons, bad radios, and random reboots. I called and got my $70.00 credit even though I was never promised one, free air rave just came in today but I can't take the s-on any longer. I'm getting the new Samsung even though its not even out yet and then I'm going to be so much cooler than all of you with your s-on . I SWEAR IF I SEE ANOTHER THREAD LIKE THIS I AM GOING TO **** MYSELF !!!!!

I'll be dumping mine too.
Overheating issues, constant 4g dropouts in a 4-5 bar area, way too many other things to list , (like absolute crap call quality.....absolute crap, and like....it's a PHONE).
I'll probably get a sgs2 also (already had a galaxyS1) because I just know SlamBungs better than I know HTC (hanoi transient crap?).

That's what I was getting ready to type. Did any of you read the last line? Lol. (I know some got it, but not most.)
I hate to join the poo-poo party but if we don't see some action soon I'm jumping ship to SGS2 ASAP as well. I got it, I loved it, I got board and fed up with the crap radio strength, jumped to NS4G...loved it besides crap radio strength....went back to E3D with best radio I have seen in one (which still ain't sayin much) love this phone again....now I have one with the best radio I have seen them with and I'm just flippin' bored....and that SGS2 screen (SAMOLED+) not being 16:9 is also gives teh huge bonar. Not to mention it's not sitting in development limbo.
...yeah, honestly, it's mostly about the dev limbo. Also we can't forget Samsung camera @ 8mp. The one in the NS4G was only 5mp (blah blah blah, I know, MP's ain't everything) and it took stunning pix.
This could all change with s-off or something happening soon, but, I'm just effing bored. Oh cool, a fast sense phone....bzzzzt.....soon to be baleeted.

Hey **** bird its called a joke, don't be so uptight. I'm keeping my phone, I love it.
The SGS2 for sprint went past FCC today and most likely with a 4.5IN screen.I love tall phones and if the 4.5 is true ill be way past happy with the SGS2 and i am also glad that after i sent the 3D back in the mail today i do not have to worry about Dev's holding or HTC holding S-OFF over me.
I did not only send it back because of the S-OFF i have other reasons but the whole S-OFF thing with leaked (yeah right leaked lol) youtube of s-off and HTC with there BS i am just glad it is over.And i am still reading the forum till my new phone gets here in 2 days.
Wish you guys the best with the 3D i would go back to it if all the other fail but that waits to be seen.

It takes stunning pics because of the sensor. You say you know, but you try to still justify it because of more mega pixels..

No, I never tried to justify it based on MPs. That is just icing on the already delicious cake...though past 5mp it's really diminishing returns...besides, that was not why the NS4G took stunning pictures. The sensor (and likely the lense) are of higher quality than HTC's (notoriously bad) camera setups.
...though the E4G had the same sensor as the Iphone4. Food for thought.

That was because the IPhone had better software (I.e post processing)... That and the sensor play a role.

I'm sure the lens also played a role in it. That seems like a very Apple thing to worry about. Frankly I'm shocked more mfgrs don't pay attention to it. A tiny amount of extra R&D and even tinier increase in cost would yield so much better results...
....but then that wouldn't afford them accolades. Then people just wouldn't ***** about it. People don't say anything when something performs up to their expectations, only when it doesn't. Some people would think this was more a problem with people's expectations than with the hardware or R&D process...I'm on the fence. Overly suggestive advertising does a lot to dissuade me from siding with the mfgr on that one...

kinda sad we are still waiting yes i understand its still being tested and tweeked
i just think its funny that a gimmick phone gets root first and ITS AND HTC phone
Well they did promised that every phone after the 3D will have a unlocked bootloader. That even means the hero 4G also.
My ''xDU4L C0R3 SH00T3Rx'' shot you down in 3D!
i understand that but why would you have to replace the HBOOT if it came unlocked ?
I understand that HTC is trying to cheap malware and such away from the phone but most people who are going to get it are people downloading infected apps from the market I would think? Does having a locked bootloader protect that? I would also think encrypting everything would take more resources then not? I dont know much but thankfully my flashing withdraws will stop soon

My bad Cheesy. My previous post means nothing due to the fact that i dont even believe that it shipped s-off. if it did there would be no reason to check and make sure it deosnt say s-on or replacing the HBOOT for that matter. So your OP does make sense and rings a bell. I guess HTC went back on their word again, either that or they thought the CHA CHA wasnt really that important to unlock.
Well since my EVO 3D is going back on Tuesday and i am waiting on the SGS2 to come out i won't miss the playing around with root from HTC and the Dev's...I am sorry but i do not believe S-OFF was leaked and went on youtube they are not that big that they would have leaks.
So enjoy and hope you guys get the root soon from either one of the sources.

You don't believe it? There is video proof. And it wasn't a leak per se, one of the members just accidentally posted the video publicly. S-OFF is coming soon, probably within a week or so. Sooner than the GS2 is coming to Sprint. So if it is a matter of not wanting to wait...I'd reconsider.

Not flaming but very curious. What does your last two post have to do with the topic @ hand. Secondly, why would a group of developers who have been on the android scene and responsible for previous s-off exploits have to lie and manipulate the android community to gain brownie points. Seems out of character and a first time ever in developer history as far as I know.Maybe you should do a little research before making poor assumptions.

If I've said it once I've said it a million times. Samsung Android phones are garbage, the only savior was the Nexus S. Everything else was crap.
I've yet to see one with completely functional GPS, a radio that works, a build quality that doesn't seem like some dollar toy you buy from china, capacitive buttons that work properly, hardware that properly reads battery levels, ect ect ect. Jesus man, Samsung can't even get the font on their lock screen right, You see the top 1/2 of each letter of the month, and only 3 letters max will show up
That is just the basics. The real issues run so much deeper.

The SGS2 GSM has been doing very well.There is not going to be a lot of difference from gsm to cdma and again if all fails without spending a dime i can come back to the 3D if i wish and maybe by that time HTC OR THE DEV'S might stop playing around with S-OFF so i do not lose out i try out the photon for 45 days free sell it get the SGS2 try it out most likely keep it due to the phone being better but if not the can i can always switch back.
You realize you have one chance to do a 30 day I don't like my phone exchange?
Good luck with the SGS2, they said the same thing about the regular SGS and that phone was a pile.

As someone who has tried both brands multiple times in the distant past, recent past and very recently I am going to have to call bull****... True, any brand of anything has its pros and cons, but when comparing samsung and htc htc doesn't even come close to samsung in the problematic-issues category.... There are some issues that go back many generations of samsung smartphone that seem like they will never get resolved.

I posted this in the Thunderbolt forum(as I still have a TB until Monday), but thought you guys would get a laugh out of it to.
This was the line for the RAZR launch this morning at my local Verizon. This pic was taken 10 minutes before they opened(They decided on 11:11AM for the launch).
Btw, that lady wasn't there for the RAZR... she just wanted a new battery for her phone and was upset that Verizon wasn't open yet.
A RAZR launch is always the best day to go to the VZW store if you need to , because it is never crowded.

Lol yeah I went down to play with the RAZR thinking that I had to stand in line to do so, but the freaking store was pretty much empty.

i know, right? sad part is, in our verizon website, they said that employees couldn't activate the razr on launch day, much like the iphone 4s, because of the overwhelming demand. LOL. what demand? hahaha
2 Issues, there are so many Android phones, those who WANT these new phones can't get them because they just got the last 9 phones that came out in the last couple months, lol. iPhone fanboys only get 1 phone every 12+ months, easier to build up demand when there isn't something else similar coming out. Not to mention, people KNOW the Nexus and Rezound come out in the next few days.

Beautiful!
The thing I hate about the razr most is the bezel is so big, also I don't like phones that have a hump, just seems out of place, I'd rather the whole thing be a bit thicker overall.

i was frolicking about in the mall today and saw one on display in Best Buy Mobile(there were people in the store, but no one seemed to be paying any attention to it). i decided to pick it up and it just felt all fragile and seemed like if you didn't hold it just right it might slip out of your hands. i didn't really play with it much but did try to see if i could experience the lag and kept constantly switching back & forth through windows and it did slow down. a salesperson was just watching me and probably thought i'm "disturbed"(which isn't far from the truth).

Seriously?? Have you forgotten that because of Verizons "terrible" marketing 99% of people refer to all Android phones as "Droids." Coming from someone who has "sent from my DROID Bionic" as his sig just makes you saying that, that much funnier.

In photos, the hump looks pretty big. In reality, it doesn't feel nearly as intrusive. You might still hate it, of course. I'm just clarifying that as far as how the phone feels in hand, the hump is the most minor concern for me.
I played with one at one of my Verizon stores... I just can't get over Moto's failed Blur. The locked BL nonsense, I mean.... No reason to ever go back to another Moto, their track record ruined it for me. (I may change my opinion if Google does successfully acquire Moto).
On a side note, if they would quit having these damn release parties and just had teaser commercials, and NOT let people know that a better phone is coming out 3 days later, and subsequently 7 days again after than. AND, if they didn't tie people to asinine contracts, AND, if there were not choices, AND.... You get the point. You can't hype something that is overpriced and isn't changing anything in the world. How many people do you think will show up at a car dealer to see a new hybrid?
Lol alot of people can barely afford food, why spend hundreds on a phone that will just be obsolete in a matter of months?

not true ^
I'm around a lot of people who are legally considered poor, most have POS dumbphones with hardly known cell providers, the ones that have smartphones still are having problem affording rent and whatnot but they're not as bad off, and they get their smartphone for free or for something like $50, and again with POS providers that are hella cheap.
It's hard to live in this society without internet or cell phones, and there's ways of getting those things without having to pay a lot.
If someone can afford to blow $300 on a phone but they say that they can't afford food, then they can, they're just dumbasses or lying to your face.
anyway way off topic, just wanted to rant.

dude.. that's what food stamps and homeless shelters are for. why spend your own money on food. LOL
now i know this is the photon section (my photon is still running like the beast it is) but i just ordered a kyocera echo!! (thanks ebay) now i wanted this phone cause 1. it's the most unique phone on the market, 2. it's discounted, so now i have a rare phone that is VERY hard to find 3. it's a new toy to play with until i go back to my photon
so here's my point to all this, do you guys have any opinions of the echo? or have you guys even heard of such a device??? lol, leave your comments, i'm interested

oh i know it's not the best, but when i use to work at my local sprint store, after the 2.3 update, it was a lot smoother, but i guess i'll see how it is when i get it, it's just something different i think, and it's a phone a lot of people don't have, so it'll turn heads to a point,lol, and for the price, i got this thing for $80, no bad i'd say for a mid ranged android phone with 2 screens, but i'll have this, my evo3d, THE MOPHO!!! still got my crap pre, and a moment
I played with it at my local sprint store and it seemed very...sluggish its a neat concept but that's about it with the pluses lol
Don't remember when it came out or when the update came out but it was a few months before the photon when I messed with it.
89 bucks you can't beat that though plus you could always Clist it for 100 if you ever need some cash lol
Its the same og evo engine now powering two screens. Slowness is expected.

1st person to actually say that,lol, but hopefully after i root it, someone out there made an overclocking kernal, i think 1.2Ghz would make the echo run smooth as butter
It's a great big steaming plie of crap

nope discontinued along with the EVO4g i'm afraid (my 1st smart phone) that's kinda why i'm happy to have one now just to fool around with seeing as it may be considered a "rare" phone now, even ebay barely has them listed
I've never truly understood ebay. How can someone auto max bid me out I want a ET4G :OOOO:

okay, hopefully i can explain this, say someone posted an item starting at $0.99
you make your 1st bid $90, up until it reaches $90 you are safe as the highest bidder
so it goes like this
Item $0.99
you bid $90
until someone else bids, you could possibly win the item for $0.99, but you have a $90 cushion
so someone bids $20
the highest bid is now $20, I.E. your cushioned bid and your still the highest bidder
someone bids $90.01, they are now the highest bidder because you only bid up to $90 (and yes, sometimes that penny difference could mean a lost bid!!!)
like with my echo, started at $0.99, i bid $70.01 (to make it an even $80 with shipping) 5 other people bided on the phone but no one went higher then $70.01 so i won it at $70.01, but if someone went just one penny higher, i would have lost
hope i explained it clearly happy bidding
i would love to have one, just to muck around with.
but yea qsd 8650 was a massive battery hog to begin with, adding a second screen... the best thing they ever did for that phone was make it 3g only.
hows cm7 on it?

doesn't seem like there's much development for it, i barely found how to root the darn thing, but if i ever find cm7, i'll try it out, and when they updated to gingerbread, they optimized the phone so much for less battery drain
Lol I honestly don't understand how you can be excited to own one when you already have the Photon.
If it were your first smartphone purchase it would be understandable, but just because it's cheap and "rare" does not make it any better.
If you have young kids or a niece or a cousin, you should let them have it. I'm sure they'd be excited by it

My dad still has his
He has had a little buyers remorse but he's still overall happy with it
Well, my 17 month old got mad at my phone because it wouldn't play his YouTube video .....so he threw it onto the tile floor. Needless to say, I now have 2 cracks that run diagonally across the screen. Its still useable, but I want to fix it. Anyone have an extra screen or broken phone they're willing to part with...or know a place I can get a replacement screen on the cheap? Also correct me if I'm wrong, but I should only need to replace the glass correct?

This is the exact same panel I purchased, one of the cheapest options I found. Most others I saw are $40-$50.
The one customer review on there does warn the panel they received had white softkeys; that sounds similar to the non-Verizon branded panels with only the HTC logo up in that top spot instead. Seen a couple of those on Developer handsets and for sale. Unfortunately, the review is silent on that logo matter. Red Sharpie can color softkeys, can't fix logo issue.
That said, my order from them looks perfectly stock, both logos and red softkeys.
Something to consider if you have the phone under contract and must keep it looking stock after repairs.
um i just got FREAKED OUT... i dropped my screen a month ago and my screen almost looks EXACTLY like that... i have an extra crack connected to the big two.... freaky
EDIT: i would take a pic but i dont have a camera and my droid x2 is on a rom without a working camera...

I dropped mine the other day from about breast pocket height, it hit the concrete, bounced and finally landed screen face down. When it was all said and done all that was damaged was a small scuff on the corner where it hit. That was my yearly allotted amount of luck I suppose.
Anyways, I really only commented to say thank you for your service Gunny. I did 10 U.S.Army, medically retired for combat related back injuries. Salute to you.
Sorry about the phone, hope you can get it fixed soon.

Well, my son is fascinated by all of our electronics....his first favorite toy was a USB cable. He has an old Eris that I gave him, but whenever he sees the opportunity to grab mine or my wife's phones or tablets, he does. Case in point, he actually just grabbed my electric razor, while I was holding him and posting this...

My parents always thought I was going to electrocute (yes, i spelled it wrong) myself before I was 5.
WHen I was about 4 years old, I was in the hospital to have my tonsils taken out.
My dad was a doctor and worked in that hospital so we knew everybody there.
While I was waiting to go in the operating room one of my dads buddies said "here little man, play with this for a while" and handed me some piece of surgical equipment (I have no idea what it was now years later).
I took it all apart and when they came to retrieve it nobody could figure out how to put it together again. I overheard one doc say "I didn't even know those things came apart"............
