[Nexus S General] jdh10475:
I used the Evo since August so for probably about 8 months or so and I just switched to the ns4g with no hesitation and love it. On the Evo I used ADW launcher so I did not even have sense running so for me I got a better faster lighter phone. It was a no-brainer in my opinion and I like the "pure Google experience". I also have two friends that went from the Evo to ns4g and they feel the same. I say take the ns.
[Nexus S General] tannerw_2010:
Well I actually have a GB rom on my hero (thats why it's running so much smoother) and I love the vanilla GB look. I can't stand sense, so from a UI standpoint, I already prefer NS>>>E3D
[Nexus S General] Quis89:
Wouldnt that be the beauty in Android and what makes it what it is? The customization and the limitless options available. The way it can be tailor fitted for the end user? Ultimately isnt that one of the things we love so much about it?

Well...thats why I like it anyway...
[Nexus S General] tsunami1609:
You're in limbo......that sucks. What is that, four levels down or five?
[Nexus S General] BrianDigital:
Well put it like.this.how.much.do you enjoy wiping and flashing your phone.

Evo 3d looks great but honastly I work and cant apend my time flippong around on it......besides we got tablets nlwadays
[Nexus S General] tannerw_2010:
Well, if I feel like I'm upgrading every time I flash (which on my hero, seemingly every flash has been a speed boost), then I'm not opposed to it at all.

On a side note, my brother has his upgrade right now, and he is in town this weekend and I am supposed to help him pick out a phone. I'm gonna try to convince him that the Nexus S is worth the $150 over the LG optimus S, which he thinks he wants cause it's free (waste of an upgrade imo [he's upgrading from a palm that is like 2 years old, so actually, anything is about an upgrade]).

My question to you guys, that will hopefully solve mine and his problem. How is the Nexus S as a two year phone? How well do you think it will hold up down the road? I'm not the kind of guy who can afford to buy a new phone out of contract (paying full price), being a college student, but come upgrade time, I am willing to dish out $200+ (but not much more) on a phone that I will be happy with for 2 years. I know that may seem like a lot to ask for with technology, and it's probably a lot to ask for you guys to predict the future too lol. So, do you think the Nexus S will be dead 2 years from now (when my upgrade following then next upgrade is)? Considering the phone will have been out for 2 and a half years plus, I am wondering this question...
[Nexus S General] Blitzpwnage:
I just found out that the evo 3d screen can display 16m colors much like the nexus, I'm going to give the nexus a few more weeks to see if I want to return it. Otherwise I'll keep it. But the evo is rumored to be $199 same as the nexus so this will be a hard decision.
[Nexus S General] shabbypenguin:
the nexus 1 is still getting official updates, and even then after that. look how long your hero lasted due to the community, you really think that NO ONE will be making anything for it? at the very least it will have cm support for a while.
[Nexus S General] tannerw_2010:
Are you thinking about returning it because of the EVO, or is there something about the Nexus S that you don't like? Just curious to hear your opinion.
[Nexus S General] styckx:
I am never going back to a non Google phone. The joy of not immediately rooting to remove a ton of crap is a beautiful thing. Add to that the priority updates. I'm sold. It may be a Samsung phone hardware wise but without the terrible and slow Samsung software support.
[Nexus S General] cheyne1:
I would bank on the nexus s to be the way to go. I think carriers and handset makers make new phones outdated themselves (software wise) so they can keep pushing out new phones with the newer software to make more money. Eventually the phone in question will receive an update if they choose to do so maybe 2 months, 6 months, or even a year later. This is why I usually keep getting new phones, just to keep up on the latest software without having to flash all the time dealing with instability and bugs. The nexus line will always get these updates straight from Google with no BS. The nexus specs aren't bad and its fast enough for me. Dual core would be nice but you have to ask your self is it really even needed. The nexus will be up to date for a while I assume with no strings attatched.
[Nexus S General] styckx:
Well what made me go Nexus was two phones. The Samsung Moment and Samsung Epic.

The Moment got crap for support and not even sure to this day if a dev ever fixed the evdo lock ups and terrible GPS.

Then the epic with its crappy eclair gps. Then the delayed and delayed and delayed and delayed Froyo update. Which still had crap gps. That was later fixed. Sorta. The best was when they sent a rep to xda to calm down the pissed off users about the delayed Froyo upgrade we were promised in Nov. What made me jump was this phone already had Gingerbread and Netflix support and know Google wastes no time getting updates out. I love Samsungs hardware but their software division sucks. No more of that jazz. :)
[Nexus S General] humdrum2009:
Ditto

no carrier crap = win:D

I thought i downgraded by giving up my Epic ,but this phone is fast no doubt.

[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
Was curious if anyone has any price information on evo 3d with the 150$ discount. If no official info best guesses would be appreciated.
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
What's the point? Your guess is as good as anyone elses.

So what's your guess and we can play hot and cold......
[HTC EVO 3D] rfs830:
the price should be $200
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
logically just look at the price of the new nexus on sprint. evo 3d should be somewhere between that price and $100 more. But a guess is just a guess. Wait a few weeks for an official announcement
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
I predict 249.

Tapa tapa tapa
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
It's going to be at LEAST $250 with new contract. Could be more.
[HTC EVO 3D] Overstew:
New contract - $199.

2 year upgrade - $249.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
Yeah 250$ was my guess as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
The Epic was $250 when it came out. And it was not that advanced of a phone when it came out when you compare how groundbreaking and revolutionary the EVO 3D is.
[HTC EVO 3D] rollrsk8ter:
Guessing (and hoping) $249 with new 2 yr contract or after $150 upgrade and rebate.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
But the Evo 4g was gorundbreaking upon its release and was $199. I see your logic but if you are trying to imply the E3D will be more than $250 based on its specs compared to what is currently on the market because of the epic.... well apples and oranges
[HTC EVO 3D] mylasthope:
$200, $250, or $300 (see droid charge). Doesn't really matter what we guess though, since we don't have any say in the pricing. If you just want to know how much money to save up, then prepare for the worst case scenario.
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
save up $500. Then you can get the phone plus some accessories. Don't forget the extra battery!! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] user7618:
Samsung is proud of their devices and feel they need to charge more for them. Case in point? See Droid Charge. One of the many reasons why I'll not own another one.

If you are eligible for a 2 year upgrade then you should be paying the same price as a new customer.

The Sensation is $199 with a new contract at Target mobile. Would not surprise me one bit if the 3D follows suit.

[HTC EVO 3D] Mattix724:
599.99 no contract and 299.99 for new contact and 199.99 upgrade?
[HTC EVO 3D] NeonMonster:
^^^^ This.

Might be 249 like the Epic with 2 year, but more likely will be 299ish because of the 3D.

I'm going to have to buy it full price, so i'm hoping its not more than 600. :(
[HTC EVO 3D] alchemist316:
199$ new contract I heard but I'm adding second line with two year contract

[HTC EVO 3D] xadeus:
I have a question. If the Early Termination Fee is $200 (pro rated would be less), why would you pay $600 for the phone? You would be better off paying the 200 and buying the phone for 200 wouldn't you?
[HTC EVO 3D] jessejames111981:
one, what if you aren't eligible for an upgrade to make it $200? Two, if you are only eligible for a one year you could save the upgrade. Or if you wanted to save your upgrade
[HTC EVO 3D] rmonty:
According to this interview "BGR Interview: Sprint’s VP of Product Development, Fared Adib",

"Just to touch on the ones you just said, I’ll kind of elaborate on it then answer your question. With the EVO 3D, one of the things that we really want to point out with that is if you take a look at it and take the 3D away from that product for a second — if you look at every feature that product has — it’s typically best in class. It’s got a qHD display, its got this dual-core 1.2GHz Snapdragon processor, and it’s got a lot of core ROM and RAM memory in it. Then you throw the 3D on top of that, and it’s just an added benefit, right? So if I was to look at that compared to an ATRIX for example, or a BIONIC, I’d say you know what? I get more for my money here. For the same amount I’m paying for these other devices, maybe I should just go with this EVO 3D. And whether I use the 3D or not, I’m going to buy it anyway."

I think they will price it close to those phones he mentions. So I'm guessing, and hoping, $200 or less.
[HTC EVO 3D] DCLocal:
I expect it will be $199 after discounts.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
Interesting. Thanks for sharing.

Tapa tapa tapa
[HTC EVO 3D] j2themax:
Termination plus new contract equal better price than retail

No if your term you dont need an upgrade your considered a new customer.

Also if you term and reco you can get the same number within 45 days.;);););)
[HTC EVO 3D] sprinttouch666:
huh, would this work on a family plan? by terminating a number (not the main) then adding it back again?
[HTC EVO 3D] FishTaco:
I thought Sprint made you wait 90 days after termination of an existing contract before you can be considered a new customer for discounted pricing?
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Open a new line with the EVO3D for $200 or $250 whatever, take both phones to sprint store and have them switch the numbers, then cancel the old line with the new number for $200. I did it with the EVO. There is no reason anyone should ever pay full price for this phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] FishTaco:
Now that sounds like a good, relatively painless, plan. I guess that means their systems and/or terms are not set up to recognize you started a new line and received a discount shortly before you cancelled another line under the same account/SSN (plus the number switch). And since you did it, I guess they can't track it or don't have a problem with it.

I was also thinking about porting my number to Google Voice (for $20) and forward to my new cell number.
[HTC EVO 3D] alchemist316:
Damn right
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigjim1488:

[HTC EVO 3D] alchemist316:

[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
uh if you bought the phone and paid the etf for the old number wtf would be the point might as well just use the 75 doller upgrade or maybe buy it out right cause ud still be droping 200-250 for phone and the 200 etf.... not to mention the activation fees/etc for first months bill
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
http://www.verizonwireless.com/b2c/...tail&selectedPhoneId=5642&deviceCategoryId=10

wouldnt they maybe charge as much as vzw does for this phone i mean this isnt qhd nor is it 3d but it has the super amoled plus and the hardware is less then the 3d lol no duel core no 2.3 no 4gigs space built in etc
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
Just count on it being 300, then if it's less you'll be surprised.
[HTC EVO 3D] OneStepAhead:
i believe you have to of had service for 60 days otherwise your required to return the phone to them. 2 months of service for me is $260 after tax.
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
We don't know what the price of the phone is out right yet though. I'm going to assume somewhere around $600. Could save you some money, it might not. Who knows?

Just saw the price for the droid charge.... WTF? :eek:
[HTC EVO 3D] ckoadiyn:
wtf is what i thought as well lol
[HTC EVO 3D] joe85:
That price includes a 32GB sdcard.
[HTC EVO 3D] alchemist316:
Why with new 2 year contract is it so far fatched to be 200$
[HTC EVO 3D] niftytechster101:
The Evo 3D is a bargain, at RadioShack at least, it'll be a very good phone and it'll help push 3D on smartphones to that next level
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Yeah...no. As much as I can't effing wait for this phone....as excited as I am to be able to capture 3D video in any reliable way whatsoever (as professional video producer--not rich...I just get paid for it)...3D pictures....3D viewing without glasses wherever I am...I can't see 3D as anything but a gimmick. 3D comes in 20~ year cycles, and then goes rather reliably in 20~ year cycles.

As a geek I find the ability to capture 3D stills and 720p video awesome...but I don't see anything in this generation of 3D (...anything...at all...) as anything but the latest iteration of a perpetually failed meme. Until 3D is holographic it won't stick. It's a gimmick.

That said, I cannot wait for this god damned phone. More so than last year for the 4G...and I not only came from a Samsung Moment--I sold that and had a Lotus for 2 months leading up to it. (Though I'm keeping the 4G in case this thing never gets rooted...just in case...I have faith in this community and even HTC to know better than to lockout its cheapest and most innovative developers)

Everything seems to be fine except one small problem, no matter what i cannot get S=ON. I've tried the gGfree unroot method, ive never installed the ENG boot loader, i did use the gfree command to turn the flag off but the reverse command doesn't seem to turn it back on either.

Looks like i found a resolution! I followed jjackson56's method detailed here

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=924923&highlight=unroot

but instead of running the script i went by the helpful tip of one of the commentators on the thread erickdj who basically spelled it out for me.

"I was having issues using the automated script to unroot(mostly to turn s-on), so I realized all I needed to do was run "./gfree --secu_flag on" to turn security "ON" and then flash the PD15IMG.zip file through hboot, that set the phone back to stock really fast and easy. Didn't have to mess with part7backup files or nothing like that. "

So in summary, download and unzip the PD15IMG.zip to your sd card from that thread and run the "./gfree --secu_flag on" then reboot into hboot and select yes to run the update, itll take restart if you have the ENG bootloader because it relflashes the stock hboot then itll carry on and restore everything else.

(Note i used this process while on an ENG bootloader obviously so if you try with a stock hboot and fail consider flashing an ENG loader then trying again)
