I was looking at the evo3d but i am going to wait till the phone is launched first only because i think the phone is going to be locked down alot and i think root will take some time. I will probably be looking at the gsII. I want my amoled screen and 4.3 is an awesome screen size for me. Plus sammy has done pretty good about not locking phones down so far.
[Epic 4G General] || Acer ||:
I've got till early Fall of next year before I start looking at amazing phones again (just think what they'll have then...lol)

BUT, if I were looking for a new phone, the EVO 3D is definitely the way to go.
[Epic 4G General] noesilva:
In the evo forums over at android forums an HTC insider says the evo 3d will ship with no bootloader lock, they wanna make it dev friendly
[Epic 4G General] MedicStuder:
According to my local corp store, if i replace my phone 2 more times (already done 3 exchanges) then i will be able to switch to different device which if i have to exchange this epic 2 more times i am jumping ship to htc and if evo 3d is out then i am going to it.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:

I'm going to be in heaven if we get Gingerbread or even 2.4 Ice Cream on another version of the Epic 4G with a keyboard and that dual-core 1.2mhz processor, S-AMOLED + display...AND I'm hoping sprint will keep the keyboard on their version...cuase idk where id be for all the long ass E-mails and text messages without some physical buttons to press....and ohh my what the developers would do once they get their hands on that 1.2 dual core...maybe wishfull thinking but can anybody else say 2.0Ghz Overclock....I've already seen the EVO SHIFT 4G OC'D to 1.8 (which I'm thinking about jumping ship towards to be honest if we don't get something new)...I think that would be a realistic expectation.
[Epic 4G General] spf2722:
The Evo 3D sounds cool, and the 3D option is interesting. If anyone has see the Ninteno 3DS, I assume it is similar to the technology the evo will have. The 3DS is cool but if that's what the evo screen looks like in 3D, HTC has some work to do.

It's stated that the quality of 3d is in 720p. Nintendo is known to use non HD screens (360p, 480p). The Wii is the only up to date console without an hdmi output. :p
[Epic 4G General] jbadboy2007:
I will wait til there have been many dual cores released so bugs are fixed and there are apps for it. samoled +++ with a physical kb. Hdmi out & 3.1, some new type of battery.
[Epic 4G General] Coin Slot:
I am probably going to switch to the evo 3d when it comes out, I love my epic but it is going to be an awesome phone. Also the reason why this phone has captured the epic crowd cause there really is no other phone to speak of that is coming out in the near future that stacks up. The nexus S4G will be a good phone but a single core processor is not nearly as fun as two!

edit: I just realized nexus S 4G is on t mobile(my bad), so I go back to my original argument of there is no real other options unless you jump ship from sprint

I also agree highly on the on screen being useless with messages more than 3 or 4 words.

In my opinion This will be the "next epic".

Since to compaire an htc to a samsung device is apples to oranges.

http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/09/samsung-nexus-s-4g-hits-the-fcc/

However most of us will be waiting a bit longer considering when our epic was released and adopted into our contracts.

The epic is a great phone, the support however from sprint and Samsung alike is horrid as we all know..

Thank god for the brilliant Devs here :)

EVO 3D is my next purchase. W/ out the 3D, it's an incredible phone. Having full independent control over the CPUs will be a big deal. I'm going to get into coding for them just because of this fact.
[Epic 4G General] worldwidepmp:
I could never picture myself with a phone with no KB, but I might just look into the EVO 3D if the battery life is decent.
[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
I've had Touch Pro, and a Touch Pro 2, both with keyboards and I've loved having it. I find it a must as there is no better way for entering web addresses and it's easier to send texts. However, the whole Epic debacle has left me wanting to get away from samsung and all the BS associated with them. I'm tired of typing things out only finding I'm having to use the arrow keys back to re-enter letters that never appeared. I'm completely sick of Samsung and their complete lack of respect for CURRENT product owners. Never again will I put up with this BS.

Besides that, the voice to text feature works good enough in 2.2, and I'm sure it will be much smoother in 2.4, especially with faster processors. I really think the EVO will redefine phones to come. There is currently a small wait while processing the speech to text. I'd love to see a brief OC of the CPU handling the processing to like 1.8GHz or something that would greatly speed up the process.
[Epic 4G General] musclehead84:
Oh man that would be cool to oc both processors to like 1.8. That phone would fly.

Nexus s is going to be my side grade until I'm off contract... Not going to be able to use this phone for that long
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Shouldn't be confusing if only the cpu is changing but the storage subsystem and everything else is the same.... It's all the same isa
[Epic 4G General] NoSoMo:
Huh? Don't you have an epic currently? You basically have a Nexus S, sans a keyboard.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Yes I do.... it's the keyboard that bothers me. It also bothers me a lot that I've put so many hours into making this as AOSP like as possible.

I just want a clean phone with stock android and no keyboard.

In case you're wondering, my screen feels like it's about to fall off, it shakes when i pick it up, it moves whenever i touch it. It's in horrible condition because of Samsung's crap materials. I haven't abused it, haven't dropped it, no abuse at all. I would seriously sell off my epic and pick up a Nexus S for a $200 loss just to have a phone that I'm comfortable keeping for another year and a half instead of a phone that feels like it's going to fall apart.

I had the phone within 2 weeks of it coming out and mine is still solid. Not sure if some people's phone were manufactured differently, but I have zero issues with mine. Just about everyone that handles the phone doesn't know there's a keyboard until I show them it slides open. In-fact, the only person who discovered the keyboard was my 2yr old niece. She was sure to quickly push all of its buttons too.
[Epic 4G General] snowmanwithahat:
Interesting... I bought this on release day, august 31st. I had it for 3 weeks before I decided that I was going to take it back because of the screen being loose. It was actually so loose that it scratched up the keys on the keyboard from sliding out.

This one is my second epic and it has been better, but not great. the screen stayed solid for a little while, but it's loose now again. I think it's from being in my pocket and all the walling I do.

Either way, can't wait for the nexus
[Epic 4G General] shabbypenguin:
says who? the adrenio 220 on the desert gl benchmark pulls a meager 8 FPS better then the epics sgx 540 gpu. factor in the slower cpu speed and the fact that its dual core running at 1.5ghz. tells me enough to know that the sgx540 is more then enough to handle anything, hell the new ipad2 has the sgx543 and its blowing up the gpu benchmarks...

now imagine what the epics gpu could do if it had a dual core 1.5ghz cpu to go along with it? so sure the cpu is slightly better but ive yet to hear anything outstanding about dual cores. prime example go to the atrix forums the "massive" battery life is a joke and users are returning them left and right, almost as much as the 3ds....
[Epic 4G General] murdermajig:
I think I will get the Evo 3d, If the GS II had 3d, it would be a automatic buy.

If both the evo 3d had no 3d and the GS II came to sprint, I would most likely get the GS II.

I have the feeling that samsung has a 3d display with a keyboard coming to sprint.

I thought Samsung said they would wait and see if 3d was a gimmick or not. Personally, I have no need or desire for 3d. Its one of those features that I feel like would be turned on maybe the first week you have the phone and then stay off for the rest of the life of the phone unless you were showing it off to someone. I'd much rather have a Super AMOLED + screen than a 3d lcd screen.

Welcome to the ever evolving world of technology son!
[Epic 4G General] TheDub:
Hopefully HTC steps up their game hardware wise so we can have both top of the line hardware AND know we will be able to run the latest software (officially or unofficially).

The HTC Hero has a stable Gingerbread ROM... basically enough said right there.

It's cousin phone the Samsung Moment? Dead and buried.. I believe a Froyo rom was eventually hacked over from the intercept.. they never received a fully functional AOSP rom to my knowledge. This will be the pattern for the foreseeable future, of course the Nexus S being the exception since of course that has support.

HTC's will get continuous software support (super important when on a 2yr contract!) Samsung will get one... maaaaaaaaaaaybe two, and don't expect a fast delivery... Froyo came out after Gingerbread had been out for a good amount of time... paaaathetic.

Samsungs Hardware is great but you can't beat HTC's software side of things... makes any Samsung a tougher sell.

Long story short... go HTC.. even if you have to look at a non AMOLED screen.. it sucks.. but at least you will not fall behind software wise.
[Epic 4G General] zanderman112:
So, if that's true, then how is it that none of the HTC phones that came out around the same time have gingerbread? Sure, they got froyo, that just means that they've had more time to work on gingerbread.

My comment isnt about gingerbread entirely but htc has a much much better track record with timely updates. Not to mention Cyanogen which will probably keep lets say the Evo going with the latest and greatest for the forseeable future when you consider the heros track record thus far.

You really think we will see Gingerbread in a timely manner? Or official Cyanogen support? Im not holding my breath for either. Is it the end of the world? No. Does it ruin the phone? No. But it would still be nice to see both of these things.

Cyanogen official support I wont believe until I see it :) guess time will tell.

The s2 specs are awesome, but I do like the evo 3d. HTC makes great hardware. The evo 3d has higher res but I LOVE Super Amoled. No phone features a live wall paper better than a Galaxy S phone.

[Epic 4G General] gTen:
No they don't..HTC has a terrible record with updates...they only recently stepped up a bit due to the bad publicity...but in that sense so has samsung improved...

Their biggest fault was the "Behold" incident which effectively got them labeled for being horrible with updates...and the Galaxy S thing did not help their case either...

If anything Motorola's track record for upgrading on Verizon is far superior to HTC's upgrade record...

First of all, the reason why HTC had more development was because people were used to HTC's way of doing things...so when Hero came out, most devs were already familiar with how to manipulate the HTC phones...the Moment on the other hand had no predecessors..so there was nothing to base on..its like going in blind..this is why you notice most of the Early development for the Epic was done by the people who were familiar with the Moment...as they had an advantage...

With support of the Nexus S 4g, I don't see a problem with getting Cyanogen support for the Epic for at least until the next Nexus phone...

Except for one thing, HTC is gonna be locking phones now like Motorola...so be ready for HTC phones to be left out and Samsung, LG and etc take their place....

also nexus s have cm7, the ns4g WILL have an official cm7 repo within 2-3 days. plus with the wimax stuff coming out theres a good chance of everyone getting wimax in cm7 now, (yes even epic owners). as for the epic, once it is up to par with cm standards it will be considered official. but til then it still a much nicer step then what everyone had on the moment..

Does anybody know why this is happening? Is there some driver issue that I am not aware of? Thanks in advance.
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Grant Barker:
What does your PC say when you plug the phone in via USB?

What does your phone do when you plug it in? (You should see options like in the pic below.)

If you have Windows 7, after plugging in your phone - try Windows Update.

If the phone does nothing when you plug it in - have your tried another USB socket?

You could try installing android-sdk_r10-windows.zip

There is a USB package that comes with it which might help but it probably won't. (You shouldn't need any other part or package that comes with it though.)

Edit: Does your PC see other USB devices?
