Some people in this thread seriously have the attention span of a dog.

Its kinda interesting how bad people are when it comes to that ..

oh and how marketing is so good it has succeeded in making you constantly "need" something new.
[EVO 4G General] lyrical1278:
I'm not going to insult you but I want you to go reread what I said.

First off, I said I don't WANT to HAVE TO download anything extra.

Secondly, I never compared the iPhone to an Evo. Yes I have an Evo but I never mentioned another phone in comparison to the mp3 player of the iPhone. I said as an MP3 PLAYER, the iPhone is FAR from the best on the market.

I also said as a PHONE is isn't the best on the market. The iPhone has survived by being great at combining many different devices but not being good at any one.

Or are you too busy reading what you want to read? Because the things you are saying aren't even close to what I said. You compared your nano to the Evo. Not me, but you.

You spoke earlier in this very thread about how you felt people were basically dissin your opinion but yet you come and diss mine when I said throughout my post this is MY OPINION. SO what makes you think you're going to change my opinion of what I feel is relevant to me in regards to this topic?

But I'll go on for you. I use iTunes EVERYDAY and I don't have ANY iOS devices. I do tech support and run my own PC repair business, you wouldn't BELIEVE how many people I have to show how to even use iTunes. So for the non techie, it might as well BE rocket science.

Again, reread my post, I started off talking bout this topic from a techie point of view and then I went about it purely from the perspective of what am I getting out of the box and will I still want to be using this phone in a year?

I don't purchase items because of hype or what someone else says. I do my own research. When the iPhone was a device that worked for me, I had one. When it came time for me to decide to put some sort of credit to my business, I left Tmo flex (yes I was jailbroken) and went to Sprint post. After looking at all the phones they had, I went with an Evo (which was not my first choice, I was thinking of going to a blackberry) mostly because of what it brought to the table, Sprint's price for my family, my wife works for comcast so we got an awesome deal, and this wasn't just going to be about work but also play.

Plus, my future needs would outgrow the iPhone primarily as a business owner (looking at both app stores and the direction google was going with Android, plus the google integration). Those were and are my needs.

Like I said, is the iPhone a good all in one device? Of course it is. Is it a great phone? Nope. (had a blackberry with better voice quality) Is it a great media player? Nope (I got an archos that will run circles around it, and this is an older archos that plays music and videos before Android was even shown publicly). Is it a great PDA? not in the least. But is it a good all in one device? Of course it is.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
It's not about the 'ease of use' of iTune's. Its about that **** being forced upon you. Some of us don't want, or need, that. It essentially mirrors most of what we hate about Apple. **** these 'blind Apple" hater comments .. that is like the trendy new thing to say. Most people expressing any sort of strong view on the matter have a reason to do as much.

As said, HW second to none ... SW tired and done.

I swear I see some people that just come with the same tired bull**** over and over and over and over.

1. I never said that you said iTunes was hard.

2. I never said you compared the iPhone to the EVO.

3. The music quality that comes off of the iPhone is better than any Android phone I have ever used.
[EVO 4G General] lyrical1278:
Then why keep taking shots at Android in your posts?

Better yet, is the music quality a result of software or hardware?

Or, even better, why do you take what I say and then spin it into a iPhone is better than..... statement?
[EVO 4G General] Ryjabo:
Jesus, dude. You sound like my wife.

"Taking shots at Android"

Man, I must have really pinched a nerve. If I would have known someone was going to get this butthurt, I never would have said anything.

I get it, though: iPhone sucks, Android rules, and if you say anything negative about Android you're a hater.

Anyways, I've wasted enough time in this thread. Time to let the kiddies get back to their "liek omg teh iphone is fail I WIL NEVAR GIT ONE!!!1"

[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
I like how everyone thinks that the iPhone is for little kids and women. Some of the most influential people in digital media use iPhones. Designers, engineers, strategist, etc. I know tons of them, none of them are brainwashed and everyone of them are bigger techies than just about everyone here.

As a owner and appreciater of both I can go over just about 100 points on both but at the end of the day, I'd recommend the iPhone to just about anyone who wasnt sure on what to get.

Ipods are dedicated media players, so I wouldn't be surprised if the audio hardware inside the ipod is better than the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] lyrical1278:
Noone is butthurt. You're the one taking shots and throwing stones. YOu're quoting my posts and adding your well this is better than that. If you're going to quote someone then stay on point. Don't add extra.

You couldn't even keep it simple. You HAD to go the extra mile to prove YOUR opinion is supposedly the more logical opinion instead of accepting the fact it was my opinion. So it would seem the ONLY person who is butthurt is you.

Just look at your post in comparison to mine. You're on the attack, not me. Then when you can't seem to stretch your opinion to me, you attack and run. But you wan to call those who don't want to agree with you kiddies.

Funny how I originally said some negatives regarding Android and you didn't notice that. But you notice how I said some negatives regarding Apple. SMH
[EVO 4G General] chamala2000:
I had Iphones since the beginning. Those are great phones, dont foret they started all the touch smartphone saga. When you JB you iphone it's like having open source android but multitasking blows, you can't save music, movies data to you phone without Itunes. Also you can't synk Iphone with any other computer without loosing your own stuff. This only thing what they mastered it's the battery life, and Android can't beat that. My wife use to like Iphones but when lately I asked her if she want's another one she siad NO (she has Samsung Epic). I'm sticking with android and will expand my Android family with XOOM or Samsung Galaxy.
[EVO 4G General] mintee:
Not me, Sprint service SUCKS afaic. Only reason I'm on it is the Evo.
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
Its because people here automatically assume everyone cares about rooting/flashing roms/jailbreaking etc. when in actuality probably less than 5% total of people that own smartphones do anything other than buy it, put apps on it and make calls/texts/pics/video. Thats the main reason iphones sell so well because they do all of those things pretty good. My sister had a Droid X and dropped it for the iphone 4 as soon as VZW got it because thats basically all she does. She doesnt give a **** about the latest CM7 lol
[EVO 4G General] NewZJ:
Music sounds the same when I plug my headphones into my Evo or ipod.

Until the iPhone has a bigger screen and isn't made by Apple I won't own one.

Nothing bad to stay about the phone though, it works. But is not my cup o tea
[EVO 4G General] dbolot1:
If you can't stand how everything looks the same - good luck with WP7... You'll be back.
[EVO 4G General] mlin:
Lol!

Tapa tapa tapa
[EVO 4G General] Dj21o:
Like I said, I've had android for ehh 2+ years now. They still have many issues (battery life being the most dissapointing). I love the customization, but I need something that runs great out of the box. Maybe I will come back after WP7, but you can't say I will be for sure lol.
[EVO 4G General] mlin:
I don't really understand this idea that android doesn't run well out of the box. I waited at least 3 months to root my EVO becuase everything worked so well. The only issue I recall was the fps cap which was BS and was likely put in place because of the **** Adreno 200 GPU that was on board.

I recall from the WM days that tweaking was absolutely necessary to get a better experience, especially compared to everything else that was on the market. After a couple years of that, I started using an iPhone which blew away the WM experience. iOS is great, but so is Android and they both work very well "out of the box."

The things I like about Android vastly more than iOS are:

-Notifications/Notification Bar

-Widgets

-Customization- I'm not talking about rooting and all the **** we do here but just the ability to personalize with more than just a wallpaper.

-Drag and drop music- syncing large amounts of music with iTunes with each change or addition is time consuming.

To pretend that either one of these OSes is not great is bull****. iOS has more app support while Android has more flexibility. Its really about personal preference and with each having their strengths and weaknesses, one isn't better than the other, though one may be better for each individual.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
I agree w mlin iv never owned a iPhone though just not impressed by the OS that's all as with everything out there in the tech world each has its UPS and downs I just don't like Apple products they are not for me

[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
It's the same type of claim like the claim that Android is "fragmented."

Is it? Yes [

All

platforms are!]

But does it really matter? Not really.

90% of people buy the phone/tablet/whatever for

what it can do now

NOT what it

could

do in the future.

But it sounds like such a negative thing and probably seriously deters some people from considering Android.

(Most people probably don't even know that their phones have updates available by the way)
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Ms is fragmented but it did well for a long long time lol still is for the .most part iPad has slowed pc sales etc but I think they where going to decline no matter what sometimes I wish I had a pc but my netbook I got for free and my phone and my ps3 does everything I want 99% of the time
[EVO 4G General] DirtyShroomz:
Truth of the matter is, every company wants their product to be fragmented, even iOS is fragmented with 2-3 different versions.... If they didn't do this then not as many people would buy their latest and greatest gadget because their old one can simply be upgraded to it... This fragmentation battle needs to stop, things will FOREVER be fragmented, it's called technology, it advances and things get left behind.
[EVO 4G General] 12MaNy:
I hate Apple for many reasons (that I'm not going to list) and the iphone is just another trap for blind consumers IMO. Sure, the the iOS is kinda cool and the apps are plentiful, but you get nickeled n' dimed for everything....plus, device performance isn't any better than any of the competitors.
[EVO 4G General] antjc80:
No one ever seems to question fragmentation on PC's.

Currently (just under the Windows banner) there are just as many if not more OS's currently in use than Android systems.

Just to name a few: Windows 7 (x32 and x64), Windows Vista (32/64) [both of these with Ultimate, , Professional, Home Premium, student, basic.....]. Then get into Windows XP, Windows ME, 2000, '98, '95, NT, 3.x.......

Same argument could be made for Macs and Linux also.

The point is, as long as the OS is stable it will continue to be used.
[EVO 4G General] mlin:
The grass is always greener on the other side... always.

Tapa tapa tapa
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:

(Yes, it WAS necessary to accent this post)
[EVO 4G General] brownhornet:
Anyone that doesnt acknowledge the fact that fragmentation is a ton worse on Android than other OS's is crazy. Why are there even still Android phones coming out even now running Froyo? That doesnt make a bit of sense to me.
[EVO 4G General] Dj21o:
WP7 runs the smoothest out of any other mobile os out there. Case closed.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:

buy products for what they COULD do in the future, they buy them for what they

CAN

do now.
[EVO 4G General] prboy1969:
Your right, and the earth is FLAT! It's all just a matter of opinion as to which is the best phone out there. Depends largly on what your using it for and how. There is only one fact. We all have opinions! Well that, and that Iphone are garbage "my opinion " ;)

[EVO 4G General] Dj21o:
Really. Go look at a stock evolution (worst), iPhone (decent) WP7, best. The evolution has some of the worst hardware in any of the android phones.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
And Android 1.6 runs smoothly on a G1 too. ;)
[EVO 4G General] Dj21o:
Well I don't own a g1, nor would I want to. And this thread is in an Evo forum. The stock look on the evo is garbage. Its laggy in the app drawer and it is uglier than my ex girlfriend in my own opinion. But some people like ugly, I prefer not to.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
You mean it's not a Winmo forum like you just tried to turn it into? :confused::confused:

You don't like sense, that's all I just took away from this post. [And apparently you like ugly if you dated a girl you claim is now ugly]

If you don't like Sense, don't use HTC. OR use a different Launcher [like the rest of the world]

Used SGS tools to upgarde my camera.apk to the hacked version. That did not work and I got the message "busybos not installed". Now camera does not work and I am at a lost of what to do. Any suggestions on how to get the original apk and reinstall it?

Thanks alot!
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:

Ask someone using JVH to upload orginal camera app for you
[Galaxy S I9000 General] AmdPhenomII:
Best thing you can do is to reflash that firmware again, I have had to do that too.

I thought it'd be a good idea to flash the camera from the Galaxy SII but that didn't work out so i found the original apk, that didn't work either.

So back to flashing the JVH rom again!:rolleyes:
[Galaxy S I9000 General] borchgrevink:
Well, suddenly it worked again after copying over original apk and odex.
[Galaxy S I9000 General] Shanakin:
After installing the app, did you then use the app to install actually busybox? Just curious.

Well that should not be surprising should it? That's exactly what should have happened by restoring the original files
[Galaxy S I9000 General] boruva:
Hi, I have exactly the same problem - not working camera after I tried to hack camera with SGS Tools (without busybox).

Which exactly file you copied to the /system/app folder? Can you put here a link do this file with original camera for JVH?

Hello!

I would like to know whitch smartphone do u recommend to use with google maps navigation offline mod.

The phone should have a good gps accurancy (I will use it without internet connection, no a-gps), and lots of battery autonomy, and lots of gb storage to store the maps.

I've read a lot of differents things in the forum, here is my resume

samsung galaxy s : sometimes bad gps, but can be fixed on hardware and software

nexus one : good gps but maybe old

nexus s : very quick, but no adtionnal storage, that's not good!, for the gps it is worse than the nexus one

samsung galaxy sII: good gps and everything, but too expensive for me and bad autonomy :-(

I've read also that peoples say HTC gps phone are very good, that's why the nexus one (htc) have a better gps than the nexus s (samsung)

Any advises welcome thanks!

I owned a Samsung Epic and an Evo. I'm posting this from my Evo because the Samsung just wouldn't work after the froyo update. Samsung's support is worthless imo. My wife and sister in law both have Samsung Intercept's and their about to get different models of phones because those phones are worthless and the Sprint rep I've been talking to knows it so...

As for the new phone, maybe they fixed the many issues plaguing their other phones but my old Epic's (yes, I tried 4 different ones...) Gps could only get a lock down to 6 meters vs the Evo's 1 meter, and the bluetooth stack on froyo just sucked. Sounds would stop playing, I missed lots of calls... Until they prove themselves again that they can make a product and support it, they won't see a dime of my money.
[EVO 4G General] imwillzillla:
Some such as myself want to always move onto bigger and better things and Samsung have the potential to be that and do that as that's what they're always selling (See Epic 4g) and they always come up short. The Instinct was dubbed the original iphone killer LOL@That, Samsung Epic was supposed to be better than the Evo and it's still crippled with GPS issues and now this phone even with it's supposed better screen still has issues with the color white (with the blue tint) and this day and age releasing a phone with not even a micro SD slot for expandable memory. Samsung is a company that pushes you to almost want to love them, then gives you reasons to LOATHE them. And I mean really loathe them.

Going from an evo to a nexus s is like going from a BMW to Mercedes; your BMW(evo) is the complete package and still up to date yet you want the Mercedes (nexus) because your BMW has a little extra mileage on it. The nexus s isn't worth leaving the evo why waste your upgrade on a phone that's barely superior. I'm not bashing it I'm just saying who cares about the "pure google experience" that single core processor will be out of date by the end of 2011.
