Hi. You don't have to keep defending yourself all over again. I,for one, like to read these types of threads as I am trying to make up my mind as well. I have already pre-ordered for launch day, but I am beginning to wonder myself if I should take the plunge. Or, maybe I will get some quality time using it at the store before I purchase it....or take advantage of the 30 return policy, although I heard that your account is flagged as not being satisfied.

What happens in all of these threads is the same....if you don't like the posting....then simply don't respond and quit taking up pages and pages of why the OP shouldn't be OP'ing in the first place. At least you could add why you are/aren't going to be getting one also or any other relevant information that hasn't been stated by other reviewers. I love my O/G EVO....but love the new Sense 3.0. And, I have all the extra accessories...none of which will work with the new 3D. The SGS2....love the looks....as one poster said and it is true...almost all HTC phones are starting to look alike in form factor. But, I have had terrible experience with Samsung U.K. service repair centre customer service. So, it is little things like this that help people make up their minds about whether to spend money now and use up an upgrade...or wait a while and just see when actual users get their hands in real-time usage.

There is enough negativity in this world without having to bring it to this forum. I come here to read and learn and enjoy the content. When it starts getting way off topic because someone doesn't like what the poster wrote.....then simply say to yourself.....I don't agree...let me read a thread I do like. Then those of us who do like the original OP don't have to wade through useless information that has nothing to contribute in a positive manner. Thank you and have a great day. Peace Out......
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Wow, lots of hate in this thread.

OP, I see nothing wrong with your post. You obviously were planning to pick up a 3d and are now on the fence due to the reviews that have been coming out. I didn't see anything made up about the device that aren't true.

I still believe you will have a hard time holding off on your purchase though. I am betting the majority of people who pick this device up will love it and once it gets rooted it will be unstoppable. The EVO dev section cannot be beat and if the 3D even comes close to it we are in for some real treats!

Arguing this late on a Saturday night and no woman, hmmm

Are you sure its only the guys you are arguing with and not you?
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
That is our point exactly op. You are basing your decision on other peoples opinions that may or may not be bias against this phone. All we have been telling you is experience this phone urself before spreading all these "facts" you have taken from these "reviews" (personal opinions) which no one can say for sure if they are bias or not. We are telling you that you should get an iphone simply because you have shown the inability to make ur own decision. We are basing that on the fact that you let the reviews make ur decision instead of using personal experience to make ur own decision. If you have had good experience with HTC as I have why not give them the chance they deserve. If HTC has not provided you the experience you crave then buy another phone.

The OP needs to be left alone in his basement.
[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
Look fool (wink), part of these forums are about anticipating released products. Making evaluations based on specs, based on others use/reviews of the product,based on Utube video's of the products etc. Your not capable of processing that?? People ARE interested in hearing where others are in that evaluation process whether decided to purchase or not , whether its premature or not and why.

I sure am. This all over your head?

[/B]
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
Believe it or not I actually agree with you. But at the same time the game changes when there is speculation on whether the reviews are bias or not. If there is information in a review that the reviewer decided to give out that is based on personal opinion or untrue due to misinformation I feel that it is wrong to redistribute that information. My reason for that is the fact that it gives the phone a false identify thus not allowing people to make an informed decision. This phone already has a bad rep for bad voice calls which could be explained as a bad connection or several other problems not related to phone itself. But they had a bad call so the phone is a pos. The screen viewing angles even if that one is true its trivial at best. As for the 3d camera being a pos. What exactly are people comparing this to? I dont see anything on the same level as a 3d camera phone. So the comparisons would not be on a fair playing ground. People are looking at the 3d and expecting a movie theatre effect. That is not gonna happen. Its a phone! So all the reviews concerning the 3d camera are not valid and are all horrible personal opinions. So this phone gets a bad rep cause people decide the reviews are dead on and redistribute information that could be false.
[HTC EVO 3D] unknown_owner:
So when will you be designing and releasing a phone that exactly meets your 100% satisfaction? I sure would like to see the reviews and opinions of that. And no I don't been in theory, I mean in actuality.

[HTC EVO 3D] rdcrds:
Well if the poor call signal is true it will be going right back.I have read the 3D reviews and i really do not care about those but when people give a review that says you need to be in a strong sprint signal area then i have a problem cause the EVO worked fine in my home while older phones like the 8330 and rant would go to roaming.

In the end it is a phone and if it can't do that well then it will be a fail for me.
[HTC EVO 3D] swaze:
A link to a very EXTENSIVE review of the phone. Not a small drive by but a very indepth review of every single feature of the phone along with nice details.

http://www.phonearena.com/reviews/HTC-EVO-3D-Review_id2768/page/4

And for your two concerns about call quality and batt life....

Performance:

Happily, calling quality is remarkably improved namely because clear and distinctive voices are evident on both ends of the line – with the earpiece outputting a reasonable amount of volume. Switching to the speakerphone, it has a neutral tone with its output, but voices sound rather crackly when it’s placed on the highest volume setting.

Boasting a higher capacity 1,730 mAh battery over the HTC EVO 4G, we’re able to get a continuous talk time of 7 hours on a full charge. On a day-to-day base, we’re able to get approximately 10 hours of normal usage, which is still less than ideal for power users. Yet, it’s probably a good idea to either invest in a second battery or have a spare charger on hand to juice it up whenever you can.

But the best thing to do will be to do your own review by actually seeing the phone in person, because you are your own best reviewer.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
Personally I do like the review you provided it seems fair but at the same time I have to take the same stand point I have on the negative reviews and that is this is this guys opinion a good opinion but an opinion none the less. I have my preorder and will get the phone friday so I'm gonna go by the only opinion that matters. My own using personal experience. Thank you for the good read and I personally appreciate ur positive contribution to this thread.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
Battery life is a major concern. 3D features and camera quality is a concern. Waiting on an ota to unlock it is a huge concern especially with a battery that only last 10 freaking hours.

We'll see..
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
There is too much controversy over these reviews to rely on them as the source for making your decision. I say we be our own reviewers cause no one uses your phone the way you do.
[HTC EVO 3D] jshields1986:
oh I agree, my usage depends on what im doing and if im texting alot of people or etc. my usage will be different than yours or anyone elses, so for people to make a consensus on well its gonna get 7 hours or 10 hours is partially incorrect, I have yet to see all reviews be like "it gets 7 hours and 26 minutes of battery life" simply because they review in there own different ways
[HTC EVO 3D] dhoshman:
Come on peeps give the guy a break. I understand fully what you mean. The specs on the evo 3d are killer but even with those specs I too still consider the SGSII a great phone that at the least is as good as the Evo 3d (Now the Photon How about NO). But I also feel committed to purchasing the Evo 3d this Friday. Why you ask? Well for one Ive been waiting for this phone forever. Second after the whole finding out the bootloader would be locked and filling out petitions and writing emails to htc and then them lifting the policy I feel like HTC is in it to win it. So my purchase is not only in belief that the Evo 3d is a great device but also that HTC has my backing (And my wallet).

Everyone has an opinion and thats cool. I think a lot of Evo 3d purchasers have the same feelings as me and thats why they will buy Friday the 24th. As long as you dont base your feelings off of that HORRIBLE Engadget review that was just REDICULOUS I dont blame you for trying to make sure you will enjoy what you plan on spending your hard earned money on.
[HTC EVO 3D] phistyle:
OP, don't worry about these fanboy clowns.. I bet we will see a lot of retard threads starting this weekend on all the faulty crap on the Evo 3D or threads praising the evo 3d as the best phone EVER from these biased tards...
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
You are accusing us of being bias yet ur own statement is bias. You are assuming we will see threads pertaining to problems with the evo 3d or if we say its actually a decent phone our opinions are bias. You are totally negating the fact that it might actually be a good phone. You are coming to ur conclusions through other peoples opinions not ur own personal experience. If you dont like the evo 3d don't buy it. Choose another phone and pollute their board and let others make ur decision for you again on whether you should buy that phone or not. By the way no one is flaming the op for having an opinion. He was flamed because he didn't form his own opinion he took the opinion of the so called reviews instead of personal experience. Personally if there is something I want yeah I may read reviews but I'll actually use personal experience before making a decision.
[HTC EVO 3D] CheesyNutz:
Op = attention whore lol
[HTC EVO 3D] phistyle:
I understand where you're coming from, but look at the majority of people in the forum. They're doing the SAME exact thing. They are forming their OPINION about the evo 3d being great this and that when they have no experience with the phone either so why are they bashing people giving negative opinions on the evo 3d? Bunch of hypocrites if you ask me.
[HTC EVO 3D] Vvlioncourtvv:
I'm not defending the people who are bashing anyone positive or negative on the 3d. I am saying everyone should put their hands on it before making a decision or even posting positively or negatively about the phone. If you ask me all people have done here is give a false image of the 3d.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] billydroid:
I was unable after searching to find a clear answer. Why is rom manager not able to flash clockwork on the g2x. Will it ever be possible or will we always have to update cw through NVflash?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
An application cannot tamper with the recovery image of the device, no matter what. NVflash works with the processor directly.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] billydroid:
That sucks, thanks.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mmapcpro:
If I installed CWM using NVFlash, should I still install ROM Manager from market once my phone is up and running?
[T-Mobile LG G2x] mpmilestogo:
I did the install after setting up the phone. There is really not much it does. If you try to check for a new nightly or ROM it always says to install the recovery. If you try to reboot to recovery, same thing. There just does not seem to be a lot of use around the application when it cannot do anything with the recovery at all.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] LordButtersI:
Maybe. It does make things a bit more convienent, and doing the fake flash does not overwrite the true flash of NVFlash, or if it does just go back and flash via NV again. You can tell the difference because fake flash is orange while true flash is red.

I installed before I flashed true recovery, and the app still works. There's nothing Rom Manager does that CWM doesn't (unless you buy premium), but the app does it a bit more easily and saves you from having to navigate recovery mode.
[T-Mobile LG G2x] Suprah:
Rom manager does not support dual core
[T-Mobile LG G2x] McFroger3:
You don't need to fake flash to use all the features. Just press menu and click manual flash override. It allows you to set your recovery in the app so it will let you use all the features.

Here is what I mean:

[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProneTheDuck:
I've been bouncing back and forth between optimized shift and the hybrid sense 3.0 roms and since the hybrid has gotten more stable I've been sticking with that.

I feel like I remember reading somewhere to use the gb leak radio 05.06 with the 3.0 roms? but I was getting horrible service with that so I switched to the 4.08 radio and things haven't gotten much better. Does the ROM have any affect on my signal or should I just keep flashing radios until I find what works best for me? Thanks in advance for your help!
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProneTheDuck:
Alright thanks I wasn't sure. Appreciate it.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyetheskin:
radios helped a lot for me,the hybrid prl is useless in my neighborhood but I noticed different averages between signal measurements.some gave me around -100dBm,others around -91 and -92. for me I'm outside northeast philadelphia and 9.01 seems to be the best with an average of -87. not the best quality compared to others but it's the one that gives me the best signal
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProneTheDuck:
Maybe ill try the 9.01 since I'm in northern Delaware that isn't too far away. The hybrid prl is for alltell towers or something right?
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProneTheDuck:
Ok. So I just flashed the 9.01 radio and updated the prl and it went from 52997 to 52341 is that moving backwards or is that just how it goes? Sorry for the noob questions but my prl never changed when updating before.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyetheskin:
it's a negative value so the closer to 0 the better,-89 is better than -102 for example
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ProneTheDuck:
I know the dbm is a negative value. I just didn't know if the prl being a lower number made it older or outdated.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dyetheskin:
older yes,outdated....highly unlikely if you're service is fine

[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylandylan1:
Hi, So I have a Australian Galaxy S i9000 with stock 2.2 DTJP5.

I have finally decided to try a RomKitchen Gingerbread ROM, but I am not sure exactly what the entire process is.

Do I:

-Root the phone

-Install ClockworkMod

-Flash Gingerbread Bootloaders with Odin

-Install the produced RomKitchen ROM with clockworkmod.

or perhaps:

-Flash a Gingerbread stock ROM with bootloaders using Odin

-Root the phone

-Install ClockworkMod

-Install the produced RomKitchen ROM with clockworkmod.

I cant find instructions that go into enough detail for the current Base ROM's on the RomKitchen Generator though, like,

-Which Base ROM should I choose- JV5, JV9 or JVO?

-Exactly what bootloaders and where from, do I get to flash first?

Also, is it easy to get back to my current stock, so I can update when Gingerbread is released officially?

Hoping someone has had some success and can help me out, Thanks!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
Ok, now you have Froyo and you want to have GB.

So you'll need GB bootloaders. I would do it like this:

- wipe/format your internal sd

- Put the Kitchen-ROM on your internal sd

- Flash the Gingerbread-bootloader: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1089989

- Go into recovery and flash the Kitchen-ROM

I've used the bootloader to install CM7, works very fine and downloading only the bootloader goes much faster than a ~200MB complete firmware from samfirmware.com or out of the XDA-forum here. :)
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] lycan_codex:
go with installing the stock gingerbread rom first..it is always safe. better safe than sorry :)

what i usually do...its a lengthy one...flash stock gingerbread, select a kernel with CWM, place the ROM in SD or EX-SD and install thru update.zip option.

which base are you looking for? JVO has got many themes now. and so does JVP.

its always a good option to check whether you have 3e recovery enabled!
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] dylandylan1:
Thanks!

What I ended up doing:

1) Flashed a Gingerbread stock ROM with bootloaders (JVP from samfirmware.com) using Odin

2) Flashed this kernel [http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1044519] with Odin

3) Used ClockworkMod to install the RomKitchen ROM

4) Did ext4 conversion, root, etc from ClockworkMod

5) Also managed to get a custom boot animation working
[Galaxy S I9000 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Lunchbox115:
Good, and if everything went fine, you won't have any problems. ;)

Hello there. Some months ago I removed protective len from my X1 camera, because it had some scratches and picture quality was very poor. After that I enjoyed good quality pictures. But today I noticed black spots while using it and then I tried to clean lens, but that didn't help. Now I think that somehow dust got inside XPERIA's camera module.

"Alright guys so reason why i opened this thread is because do to the fact that AT&T is nothing but a pure monopolistic (wants to control everything) company and as we are all aware there is no unlimited data plans, i have always wanted to know how to "Trick" if i may say, AT&T to thinking were using a so-called "Dumb Phone" thus vise versa a smartphone such as the good old Samsung captivate.

Hi,

My HD2 is on WM 6.5.

I want to install a W7 rom on it but i have some questions before doing it.

How can i migrate my contacts ?my sms, my appointements?

The microsoft activation is obliged ?

Thanks

(sorry for my bad english)
[HD2 Windows Phone 7 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting an] bazinga:
First of all, its Windows Phone 7 and not Windows Mobile 7.

Your contacts can be imported from your SIM card if you have backed it up onto that, or Windows Phone also has the options to sync with your Gmail contacts and Windows Live Client and even Facebook contacts. SMS cannot be backed up but appointment's can likewise be synced with Outlook or from your Gmail account.

You only need the Microsoft activation if you want live services to be activated i.e, Marketplace, Zune and probably other stuff. I don't see the problem of going to Microsoft chat and politely asking for an activation code ... it takes probably 5 minutes at the most.

Give it a shot, Windows Phone is pretty fantastic and with the upcoming Mango update it'll be even better :D
