Amazon UK set release date for Evo 3D on 12th September 2011
[HTC EVO 3D] xweaponx:
You might get some biased answers asking in a 3D forum... ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] daGUCCI:
still cant decide what should I go for, I might go with LG now and later exchange if will be possible, depends on release date and seller
[HTC EVO 3D] gtsuperbee:
Nicki Minaj would drop "maaan i just ****ted on them!" 3VO all day!
[HTC EVO 3D] daGUCCI:
comparing prices in UK, evo 3d is 150 GBP expensiver then LG Optimus 3D ;/

does anyone know about ebuyers, if they actually will get LG stock, was thinking from which seller to buy
[HTC EVO 3D] daGUCCI:
so I received optimus 3d today, display doesn't slide as I wanted, its becouse of display or it's becouse new and not 'slippery' enough?

anyways, how about you guys, will/have you attached protector on your LG Optimus 3D?
[HTC EVO 3D] vWvSTATICvWv:
Man, I can't wait for full root. Only thing I want to steal from the Optimus 3D is the 3D Space menu. I'm sure they'll be things going back n forth between both phones. aHHh the possibilities....Hurry up HTC!! :D
[HTC EVO 3D] daGUCCI:
got my O3D yesterday, it works like a charm, got dizziness with 3d, but it's becouse I wasn't use to this 3D stuff b4 ;], evo 3d will arrive to UK in september only :Q
[HTC EVO 3D] visualizer2k:
Benchmark score

What it the highest quadrant benchmark for Evo 3D?

Can we compare with Optimus 3D highest score?
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
Who really cares about these benchmark scores. I think that is the last thing people should be looking at when comparing phones.

You know what's under the hood and all these newer dual core processors can handle everything that is available right now. Buy the time it can't everyone here will be looking to purchase the next EVO 3d follow-up.

If the Optimus 3D or SGS II can open an app 1 nano second faster, is that really a reason people would choose it? I think power wise all these phones are comparable and it comes down to all the other features the phone offers that might be of interest to you.
[HTC EVO 3D] visualizer2k:
Well I do care about it, both are 3d phone so we would like to play stereoscopic games on both, so personally I would prefer snappiest phone which can handle the heavy load, and browse websites faster.

I guess I vote for Optimus 3D, quadrant score says it all. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
Quadrant score says it all? Wow u really are a noob..
[HTC EVO 3D] firmbiz94:
There is a dogfight on YouTube..e3d was declared the winner..guess that guy was stupid and didn't base his opinion based on quadrant which can't even measure a sync cores
[HTC EVO 3D] daGUCCI:
as far as I know HTC has nice app which allows you to locate your phone via satalite, is it possible to do so with LG optimus 3d if in case you lost it?
[HTC EVO 3D] daGUCCI:
since HTC evo 3d is now in UK also, so really which is better and why?
[HTC EVO 3D] mancuk29:
Question best place for 3d games ?
[HTC EVO 3D] cobraboy85:
why is this even a question?
[HTC EVO 3D] justj:
I compare the two side by side few days ago in CPW. My conclusion is that

evo 3d is better simply because it has a higher res screen. when viewing 3d the screen res drops in half and you can see vertical lines clearly on LG whileas on E3D it is barely visible. When takeing pictures I find that HTC looks more 3D than the LG's. Although I do like the 3D meneu on LG.
[HTC EVO 3D] libai8268:
Well I think people buy EVO for its sense. 3D for phones is just gimmicky now
[HTC EVO 3D] justj:
gimmick??

I take it that you don;t have a 3D phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] franky_402:

[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
After upgrading my phone (T-Mobile Galaxy S Vibrant SGH-T959) to vibrantmtd #30, my laptop (HP EliteBook 8540p - Running Windows 7 Enterprise 64-Bit) no longer recognizes my phone as a USB device. There is literally no indication of Windows trying to load the phone as a USB device. I have tried everything I can think of to get the device to load as a USB drive on my laptop.

1. Rebooted the Laptop, several times

2. Uninstalled and reinstalled Samsung and Nexus USB drivers

3. Made sure my laptop was up-to-date on all patched

4. Tried with USB Debugging was checked/uncheck

5. Tried with multiple cables

6. Tried multiple USB ports (1.1, 2.0, and 3.0)

7. Used USBdeview to uninstall all USB devices on my laptop (also tried this on my home PC) and then let window reload the devices after a reboot.

8. Tried with multiple systems (both Windows 7 and XP 32/64 Bit) – including friends who have Galaxy S and Nexus Phones.

a. The only system that will try to load a USB driver is my home PC [Windows 7 Ultimate 64 Bit] and no matter what drivers I install the phone always comes up as an Unknown Device.

9. Tried going into download mode to use Odin to revert back to a 2.2 mod. I can only get into download mode using a physical jig and even then Odin will not connect to the device.

10. I can’t even load a different build of Cyanogenmod. I tried loading build #31. It downloads, prompts me with the three questions about backup, clear data, and cache. I have selected every possible combination of those selections and it will download the build and reboot try opening rom manager (too quick to see what it says) and then loads back into build #30.

I am at a loss as to why I cannot get the phone to be recognized as a USB device or be capable of further MODing. Any help would be appreciated

Thanks,

Michael

Do you have skype? It would make it easier for me to help you. If you're not comfortable with it, I'll just type everything :p
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
Try this, turn phone off completely, turn it on by holding these three.... vol up, vol down, power....let go of all three at the same time as soon as you see the Vibrant logo.

Edit.....do not have it plugged in at all while doing this.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Is this a bug with the nightly? Try an OLDER version.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
Sorry, don't have skype.

I did your above steps and that puts me into ClockworkMod Recovery.. Was there something I need to do in here?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
Nope, it's a driver and human error. Rom manager cannot go into recovery mode, you have to use three button combo.

It's stated by the cm7 team.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
No, I checked. I was just able to go to build #31 by rebooting into clockworkmod and installing the build #31 zip from there. I did have to wipe data, install, and clear cache to get it take though.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] s15274n:
Removed.. Agh, been awhile since cm7, not what I remembered.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
Yes, now if you have downloaded a cm7 nightly on your sd card, do this.

Wipe data, factory reset

Wipe cache

Go to advanced, format system, cache, and data.m.

Go to install zip, choose zip from sdcard, select the downloaded cm7 nightly, select yes.

Then reboot phone, not reboot recovery. Leave it for 15 minutes, reboot, now use it.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
After it's up and running, please please go into recovery mode the same way I posted, do this after you finish all the steps above!

Go into backup and storage and make a backup!! This will save your phone if future problems occur.....this is a nand backup.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
Ok, I did all those steps, I have a backup now.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
Awesome, this will save you from bricks or anything unfortunate.

Is your computer still not recognizing it?
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
Correct, still not recognized.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
Open device manager, find device installation settings and make sure it's on find drivers automatically.

Open Windows Update, settings, check give me recommended/additional updates.

Use the usb software to uninstall the drivers, uninstall kies, or any samsung software.

Reboot......install this driver, turn off your compute, don't restart.

On your phone, settings, applications, development, make sure debugging is on.

Plug the phone into the usb and plug it into a new usb slot. Now turn on your computer with it plugged in.

http://drivers.softpedia.com/get/MOBILES/Samsung/Samsung-Galaxy-S-USB-Driver-for-Windows-x64.shtml
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
Well for whatever reason, those steps seem to bring to life my USB port.

I performed all the above steps and when I powered on my PC after perform the steps, the phone was not recognized as a USB device until I unplugged the USB cable and plugged it back in. Now it is recognized on every port on my laptop.

Interesting other issue was that after I used Odin to revert to stock, if I powered off my phone it would not load anything (not even the splash screen) when I tried to power it on and I know it was at 90-100% battery power. The only way to get it to boot was to go back into download mode and use odin to reflash the OS. I did this 4 times with the same results, with different copies of Odin and the stock rom and I got the same result.

I decided I was too tired to figure it out, left it on after a flash (not plugged into anything) and now it will reboot fine.

I don't know what strange voodoo possesses my phone, but thanks for your help.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] crazy25000:
That's good to hear and no problem. By the way, I highly recommend using Heimdall to flash roms....I've had no problems with it. I don't use odin anymore.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MikeTheTechGeek:
Thanks, I have heard of Heimdall but never tried it. I will give it a try next time.

HTC evo 3d can't even record in 1080p
[LG Optimus 3D] x7nofate:
If that http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KNCTE1lHaaI is how lg optimus 3d record in 1080p I'll say thank you. Its better to record in 720p@30fps than 1080p@8fps:o
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
I voted LG, the HTC looks like it's not coming out in the UK

Also, on the 1Gb vs 512Mb debate, Sense 3.0 takes up a HUGE amount of RAM, so much so that the HTC Sensation (768Mb RAM) occasionally stutters and isn't as fast as the Evo 3D
[LG Optimus 3D] nic85:
you take the only one video@1080p of the 3D that have a strange low fps...all others run at 30fps. :rolleyes:
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
I think it's develepoer phone and not a full version (release) one.
[LG Optimus 3D] peacekeeper05:
Lol. Dont be stupid. The one he is using is most probably a developer's phone. I have an optimus 3D and it records good 1080p @ 24frames per second. ;)
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
Have you tried HTC EVO 3D yet, to compare both phones, if yes, which you think is better and why?
[LG Optimus 3D] peacekeeper05:
^

nope, only manage to see some review units.

3D wise, the optimus 3D wins hands down.

the 3D on the evo 3D looks pale and awkward and it is difficult to find the right spot for the evo 3D's 3D viewing.

i haven't tested evo 3d's software and overall performance so i can't really comment on that.
[LG Optimus 3D] ik911:
LG has a better 3D UI plus comes with 3D Games

Does the HTC come with Games etc?

But I voted 3310 snakes FTW
[LG Optimus 3D] SinSilla:
I ony heard of one preloaded movie,which would be the green hornet. Haven't heard of any preloaded 3d games. Could be wrong though.

[LG Optimus 3D] SinSilla:
I´ve just read some first impressions from the EVO guys and almost everyone is impressed by the 3D Features of their phone so far. Even those that had a rather negative attitude towards that aspect in advance.

Given that the O3D got better ratings (regarding 3D) in every comparison (but one) this is quite exciting don't you think? :)

To answer the poll:

I obviously chose the O3D. I just like the Omap Chipset better and i really like the direction LG is heading at the moment. Their latest handsets are of some really high quality and i'd like to support them. The O3D is a good looking device and i really hope that it gets some serious attention here at XDA.
[LG Optimus 3D] peacekeeper05:
Come on LG. Hurry up. Release this bad boy already!!!!! Want some custom roms on it!!! I know xda devs can make this phone an even better device.
[LG Optimus 3D] Wekko306:
I must say I agree with you that LG seems to be going in the right direction, however I don't know if they're really there yet. The fact that the O3D comes with Froyo (no idea when Gingerbread will actually arrive) and some experiences with the 2X disappoint me. In addition, the Evo 3D seems to be capable of doing portrait 3D as well which is a plus over the O3D.

I'll just wait if and when the Evo 3D gets released here in Europe and check here regularly to see the experiences of a number of users.
[LG Optimus 3D] HDD_x8:
LG O3D looks like the better choice because it has better specs, but if HTC Evo3D is cheaper, I may choose that instead.

The few extra pixels of the Evo3D may compensate for the crappier 3D it may have...
[LG Optimus 3D] SinSilla:
Well, it would be foolish not to see that there still is much room for improvement on LG side to get accepted on a broader base.

Public relations and customer support is still bad and they almost seem to stumble while trying to catch up. Of course i heard of the reboot problems of the 2X and the fact that the O3D will ship with Froyo is irritating to say the least. But these points are still no dealbreakers for me. This baby is open for developers and is a very good foundation for future updates.

And let´s not forget that the EVO3D seems not to be the heavyweight contender that has been expected by a lot of people. After reading all the available reviews i feel that it has been rushed. While still being a top notch handset, it doesn't seem to bring the expected htc-quality to the table.

It´s kinda sad and also surprising to see that a lot of the HTC fellas seem to be too stubborn to acknowledge what the O3D has to offer. It´s an LG with 512MB so it has to suck... :rolleyes:

I really hope to see some honest comparisons by some of the major websites soon!

Btw, if they somehow managed to accomplish 3D in both orientations, which i still believe is mostly imagination by the few who say it works - no offense, it also seems to go at the cost of overall 3D quality.
[LG Optimus 3D] nic85:
from phonedog

Though it's the first 3D smartphone to come to a US carrier, I've been working with the unlocked LG Optimus 3D, and I have to say, EVO's 3D abilities aren't as strong. The colors seem to be a bit washed out, and the 3D effect is more brash than the Optimus 3D. After viewing it for five or ten minutes, I had a headache

p.s. LG italy told me that O3D and 2X developer teams are different.

€:

Wow, comments section over there seems to be very hostile grounds lol
[LG Optimus 3D] peacekeeper05:
so mobileburn, phonedog and BGR says the 3D on the optimus 3D is better than the evo 3D. i think its a given knowing LG makes 3D tvs and 3D screens already. that is their area of expertise.
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
we'll we need a someone who have tried both to find out whats better in both and what are negative sides for each
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
watching the Evo 3D thread, seen a couple of dodgy photos, both the right images are blurred (from different users/phones)

Video showing the same: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xk86jp4Ws60
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
more and more info about blurried pixels, is that right with HTC Evo 3D or it's just buggy phones or it's the whole bundle what's been sold so far?
[LG Optimus 3D] Renegade_Rulez:
A lot of bad EVO 3D phones it seems and boot loader still locked not even root access yet!

960x540 is nice but at the moment its more annoying than good because most apps dont support it yet...

Native MKV 3D support on the O3D that really pushed me to the O3D!

Newer CPU type than EVO 3D

Better viewing angles

Better 3D screen also it seems.

So only the 1GB memory that makes a difference? Not on a Sense 3.0 phone that has less than 200MB free anyway...
[LG Optimus 3D] Super Chimp:
You not concerned by the O3D being stuck on 2.2?
[LG Optimus 3D] Renegade_Rulez:
Why Worry about that? I have a LG Optimus 2x here also only with Froyo so far but running CM7 (Gingerbread 2.3.4) for about a month now very happy with it :)

Its completely unlocked like a LG2X so we will get our GB before LG comes with it, and I am sure LG will release in a couple of months for sure.
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
but without official 2.3 there will be no drivers for camera, parallax screen etc

or have I got that wrong?
[LG Optimus 3D] Renegade_Rulez:
Maybe not right away but this phone is really a beast of a phone, super dev Paul O Brien already got his O3D so all is well! :D
[LG Optimus 3D] Super Chimp:
I would think going down the unofficial route with a 3D device like this would be asking for trouble?
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
that's what I was thinking, I only want the phone for the 3D side of it so a custom ROM would have to get that bit right

Optimus 3D vs evo 3D comparison by Phonedog.

LG is better on 80% of the fight,and at the end he annouce evo 3D as the winner..WTF LOL :confused: :eek:

http://www.phonedog.com/videos/htc-evo-3d-vs-lg-optimus-3d-dogfight-part-1/

http://www.phonedog.com/videos/htc-evo-3d-vs-lg-optimus-3d-dogfight-part-2/
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
I'm worried about 3D, do you actually have to abit move from side to side to see 3D content when using these 3d phones (O3D / E3D) or it's just stright away is in 3D and you dont have to move phone to see picture changing? was watching many reviews and all seems that you have to move to side to see 3d content and move back to see picture changing, is that becouse of 2d camera recording it?

P.S. does actually E3D have display bug with apps, since it's using higher resolution then O3D and most of apps doesnt actually fit in this screen and just is sized to get in screen but can see that bottom part is cut off?
[LG Optimus 3D] nic85:
Just stright away is in 3D
[LG Optimus 3D] daGUCCI:
oh nice, was just wondering about that.

what about htc 3d movies, LG can watch mkv 3d movies, can HTC too?
[LG Optimus 3D] nic85:
I dunno about evo 3D.

LG can play mkv 3D,mp4 3D,wmv 3D and i think also other formats.
[LG Optimus 3D] Renegade_Rulez:
Evo cant play mkv for sure :) All of the evo 3d users need to convert before they can watch it.

And now in all comparing reviews it seems very clear that the evo 3d does not nearly do as good in 3d as the optimus 3d :D
[LG Optimus 3D] nic85:
Lg is better 4 sure.
[LG Optimus 3D] nahedd_h:
just like you i have shocked at the end - that was unfair conclusion :mad:
[LG Optimus 3D] mmace:
I don't own either phone (until my O3D turns up tomorrow), but looking at the sample videos the 3D on the O3D looks to have a bit more depth, which I think is a good thing
[LG Optimus 3D] kalish:
I didn't know witch one to buy, I've been reading all the reviews I could find across the web, watching all the youtube clips etc... but could not decide...

Finally I have bought the LG yesterday and I can tell you that it's far better that I could imagine, the 3D effect is really great and gave me no headache.

Overall performance is great, I find it little slow navigating the home screens but no lag just not a quick as I would like but it is just in those 7 screens the rest is really fast.
[LG Optimus 3D] nic85:
Good choice :) try another launcher like go launcher ex
[LG Optimus 3D] kalish:
Yes with another launcher it's fast but then you lose the app drawer and the one on the lg ui is really great.

Anyway good device

[LG Optimus 3D] Masinac:
Mine O3D is ordered and should come in 3 days :D
[LG Optimus 3D] l0nz:
My main concern with this phone was how the screen would perform in 2D... pleased to say after a shop test that it surpasses my expectations (in 2D and 3D), hard to believe it's still only 800x480, the text looks so sharp and readable even at a tiny zoom... much clearer than the Galaxy 2's supposed best screen on the market (yes I know it's the same res, but couldn't test the Sensation as 'problems in testing' have delayed it in the UK apparently). Instantly went home and ordered mine, already shipped :D

Even if the Evo 3D and O3D were equally as good, I'd be opting for the LG purely on price. In the UK the O3D is cheaper than both the Galaxy 2 and Sensation when it comes to monthly contracts, so god knows how much more expensive the 3D HTC will be when it finally lands....

Just got the O3D on 18 month contract, 300 mins & texts, 500mb internet, £25 a month, £25 for phone but with £30 cashback! Try getting that deal with a top end Samsung or HTC.
[LG Optimus 3D] hefonthefjords:
lol 500mb data. thats a joke.

evo isnt coming to uk man (not with network subsidy anyway). sprint US exclusive dude.
