Although I think my EVO is the best phone I could have on Sprint, I am rooting for Samsung here.

Samsungs history with Sprint/Android is abysmal. Crappy, abandoned phones that are just paper weights.

Here is why I am rooting for Samsung. I pretty much have to stay with Sprint (for work) -- and it is evident that the Samsung/Sprint relationship is such that 75% of the new Android offerings on Sprint are going to be Samsung phones. I want them to get better. Chances are when it is time for me to upgrade -- 3 out of 4 of my Android choices may be Samsung phones. I want them to be good phones, supported phones.

And HTC doesnt?
[EVO 4G General] jm5503:
WTF.....How am I trolling????
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Someone has been taking lessons from fixxxer2008...

Because that's what some do on these forums.

They name call instead of discuss.

It's become really old.
[EVO 4G General] jm5503:
When did I name call??
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
I wasn't referring to you, I was referring to what was said about you and why they said it.
[EVO 4G General] jm5503:
Oh okay.....my bad thought u were referring to me....I'm tired of it as well....I just thought it was ok to state that another phone on our carrier that was at one point thought to be better than the EVO was getting the latest version of Android and we weren't....sucks to me.....
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
Dude, why are you trolling us?
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
This from one of the main jackasses who always tries to turn what was once a great site into a cesspool of crap.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Ah, if it isn't my pal indagroove...did you apply to be a moderator since its all you do?

Oh, besides name calling.

Pot calling the kettle black much?
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
First of all this thread has lost it's way already and we're only 4 pages in, second of all it's not that big of deal that we aren't getting 2.3.4 yet. We have roms that do that for us. So I agree with the majority WHO CARES. Pointless thread and it should be locked before this troll fest goes any farther.

After the dust under the screen, broken keyboard and overheating fiascos I have to agree.
[EVO 4G General] :
You really are a bit of a double standard, you know? You whine and complain about vulgar language and other actions, yet you do the same but it's ok? You have plenty of posts with vulgarities/obscenities and indirect attacks on users. (Someone seems to hate on Engadget here lately)

So you don't call people names directly. Congrats?

But at least I know every time you reply to one of my posts, or someone elses who 'trolls' (by your standards anyway), it's working. And oh yea, I agree.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Vulgar.

Oh, so vulgar and swearing really aren't the same thing? Oh okay.

Good day.

Side note: I considered wasting my time like you searching through posts to try to prove a point but instead, based on the few posts I read, I will recommend one thing:

If you REALLY wanna be a forum moderator AS BAD as your posts seem to indicate, you are welcome to click here.
[EVO 4G General] :
Someone's mad because I called them out. :eek:

Based on the link you gave, your posts are vulgar. Most of what I linked fall under: Lacking sophistication or good taste; unrefined.

This one falls under: Making explicit and offensive reference to sex or bodily functions; coarse and rude.

Need anymore, Mr. Double standards? You are no better than the rest of the people you insult daily. Time to step down off your White Horse.

"Side note: I considered wasting my time like you searching through posts to try to prove a point" -- short: I really couldn't find anything to come back with.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
Like I said, if you want to be a moderator, I provided the link. Good day.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
And that, forum goers, is mattykinsx. Called out and he shuts down. Maybe a link here or there, maybe a snide reply ie a 'cool story,' or his tried and true 'wannabe Mod' comment that is more hypocritical than most would dare.

How do people hate on this place? I LOVE this ****.

I'm gonna miss a lot of you people. :D

That's "he shuts down"?

As for the rest of your post, you're the last person in this forum that should comment on others being "vulgar."

I'm done with this thread, you two enjoy your love fest.
[EVO 4G General] cg 112358:
mattykinsx and sirmx....grow up! jeez! neither of you deserve to be mods considering you brought this thread WAY off course just trying to come back at each other!

now lets try to get back on course....

I personally don't think the Epic is "one upping" the Evo. Before I switched over to the Evo from the Hero, I tried the Epic, Evo and Shift. To me, the Epic felt cheap. Its internal specs are great....but I'm not gonna buy the fastest car in the world if it looks, feels, and drives like a pinto :p The Evo's hardware feels great...yea its cpu isnt as good as the epic (Snapdragon vs. Hummingbird) but I'm not looking for games on my phone. and IMO, the Evo has a much better dev community compared to the Epic so even if the Epic gets 2.3.4 officially....I'll still be able to run it through ROMs anyway
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
I didn't comment on your 'vulgarity' or the like, was more so in response to your response to - erm - his response. You always play the same card about people 'aspiring' to be mods. Just funny that you choose to take such a stance, and voice as much, on other users that you don't agree with, like 'indagroove.' You have been known to hound mods over 'colorful' language' in the past, and apparently I'm not the only one noticing you have been doing the same as of late. Recently I have seen a few posts by yourself that have been a bit, oh, 'colorful' as well. Do I care? No. But I see where he was coming from.

And you do shut down, you often choose to only regard certain parts of peoples posts ... strangely enough when such posts are made and directed towards you. Disregard everything and link, and then follow up the next post reminding them of where you linked, to the 'mod applications.' It's just ironic.

Chill, bro. No need to get all riled up. We all know you have more important **** to worry about.

So don't remind people about how 'vulgar' I can be, because if anyone is going to know it'll be me. I didn't comment on that, so you don't need to comment on that.

Man up, bro. Make the ol' man proud.
[EVO 4G General] Evo4eva:
This is what I was talking about earlier,troll fest. Both of you are pathetic,sad people. You are arguing over the internet. Who gives a ****, I mean really it's the INTERNET. Both of you wouldn't say half the **** you're saying to each other in real life. So why bother wasting your time going back and forth on the internet. This forum is not a place where people like you can have your arguments, it's a place for people to come and find help or learn how to root their phones. Get over yourselves and move on with your lives.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
You're right, this forum isn't the place. Suggesting something wouldn't be said outside the forum? Kidding me? I'd like to think people take it pretty easy around here. Hell, Matty; PM and you get my direct number, house number and address. I'd love to talk to you on the phone. I'd give you anything you need. That's real. We're both of the same age ... this might be fun. I'm not some creep ass 40 year old ... this could be real. Only if Matty, for what I presume as much, wasn't such a - well, you know.

[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
Guys, can we talk about wiping? LOL

No matter how many times I wipe, I still get all these streaks!

It specifically says 'Streak-Free.'

And why did this bird almost fly into my backdoor? There are streaks, can't he see the streaks?!
[EVO 4G General] :
Did you wipe exactly 2,401 times? Be sure to skip /system because nothing important goes there.

I wipe using soft, dye free, TP.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
I tried wiping again and the paper broke, resulting in my finger - well, you know how that goes. Butt, I think I touched 'system.' Only for a second though.

Talk about laughing out loud, my Icehouse even looked at me funny! I could have sworn he said, "Why aren't you drinking me?"
[EVO 4G General] tejasrichard:
To which, a good answer would have been: "Because you are a poor excuse for a cold-brewed bottom fermenter, whose small amount of flavor is actually a blessing in disguise, when one considers what there is to taste. I would rather drink a Bartles and James wine cooler; at least when I'm done, I will have a handy phalus-shaped bottle with which to frig my mangina."

Try that next time, and see what his answer is.

[EVO 4G General] msarro:
That's very, very true though. In my experience (first android phone was a Samsung moment - chose that over the HTC hero because it appeared to have better specs). Except samsung has craptastic support, and about a year after the release of the device they had pretty much abandoned it. Sadly, most of the dev community had as well.

The hero on the other hand still got plenty of love.

And since HTC will be shipping nand unlocked going forward, i'll be giving them my loyalty (in the form of dollar bills).
[EVO 4G General] CDKJudoka:
Really? There are still plenty of people devving for the Moment, just not on XDA. I know they are working on GB ROMs for the Moment using Transform "parts". I have been flashing new ROMs onto my Moment non-stop until I got the Evo.

As for the Epic getting 2.3.4 before the Evo, let's see if it actually works and doesn't have to be recalled like their other updates did in the past.
[EVO 4G General] mattykinsx:
For the masses what kills Samsung is the slowwwwwww updates and the radio issue.

For "phone enthusiasts" like us what kills Samsung is the lack of dev support. [Which may be Samsung's fault, I'm not sure]

The Epic doesn't even have a fully working AOSP rom.
[EVO 4G General] bumsock:
I also had the samsuck moment for a while and its "data lock" issue is what did it for me. I paid full price for the EVO just so I could get away from that P O S. Luckily the Devs at SDX made living with it a lot easier lol I was also drawn in by the specs on it at the time and came with Android 1.5 (I like to call that period "the dark times") and took for ever to get the official 2.1 up date lol >:-[ So when I hear Sammy may be getting a update before someone else that's actually good news. I hope they keep it up..I'm starting to think I'm going to hold out and get the galaxy S2 over the 3D or if the phone that's supposedly being released in korea is actually real,it looks like the 3D but a 8mp camera in place of the 3D one and the switch by the external camera button is pic/camcorder..is (so more like the sensation) released on sprint magically sometime before december I would probably be more likely to get that.
[EVO 4G General] cg 112358:
that was me with my Hero and the moment I got the Evo, I did not hesitate to start flashing :p

on a side note CDKJudoka....I noticed your from Hicksville....small world...so am I!! graduated from HHS in '06!
[EVO 4G General] :
Agreed.

We will see if Samsung is any better with their SGSII since they sent Cyanogen people some free phones to get CM7 installed on.
[EVO 4G General] zeau2004:
Agreed
[EVO 4G General] AbsolutZeroGI:
Definitely waiting for the sgs II.

the Evo 3D's biggest feature is a gimmick (and reportedly giving people headaches). the sgs II is all specs, which I can live with.

[HTC EVO 3D] mikevillarroel:
Does any one know what kind of screen the EVO 3D has?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
SLCD qHD.
[HTC EVO 3D] mevensen:
If you're asking about what type of glass, we don't know. It's not listed on the Gorilla Glass lists, HTC says says about a proprietary type of high strength glass.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikevillarroel:
So it can be compared with:

1)Retina Display

2)SAMOLED

3)SLCD

4)AMOLED

5)TFT LCD

I've been reading and don't know if the SLCD qHD would be better, same or worst , lol
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Lol at Retina Display. That is actually IPS.

I can't say since I haven't seen it first hand. SLCD should provide sharper colors than what an LCD display does.

Edit: in all honesty I really don't like AMOLED or even SAMOLED. The colors are way too oversaturated
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
IPS is just a type of LCD screen. In fact they're almost all just variants of TFT LCD's, except the OLED screens.
[HTC EVO 3D] Lejjvi:
what about Samoled plus? Is it good?
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Yes, but it is as different, just as SLCD is a type of LCD.
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
Yeah i guess it just irks me when people do IPS vs TFT when IPS is a form of TFT. What would be more correct is saying IPS vs TN (which is the cheapest and worst looking LCD).
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Supposed to be nice and bright in Sunlight. But nonetheless it has over saturated colors which I do not personally like. Just my opinion.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I know how you feel. I hate it when people call it the Retina Display.
[HTC EVO 3D] notown775:
I think some Droid incredible 1's had slcd cause they ran out of amoled .. find one of those :-)

sent from my back pocket using an EVO
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Also to my understanding, SLCD is supposed to be easier on the battery than the standard LCD display.
[HTC EVO 3D] LoveisPeace2012:
SA+ owns all other screen tech right now
[HTC EVO 3D] donatom3:
All the newer Incredible 1's, and Nexus Ones had SLCD. It's supposed to be better in sunlight then LCD or IPS, but not as good as SAMOLED.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
No one said it didn't. Happy now?
[HTC EVO 3D] lesp4ul:
Apple just made an another fanboy friendly name so they won't confused because "High Density IPS panel with LED" is too hard for most of them to understand haha.
[HTC EVO 3D] mikevillarroel:
so we are good moving from the EVO to the EVO 3D
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I see it as an advancement. The processor and the GPU alone are worth the upgrade. For myself at least. Not only this, but dev support.
[Nook Color Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Wifflepig:
Because I'm running off the SD card (with CM7 and verygreen's agnostic card boot thing) ...

1. Do I need to be careful about flashing packages? The recovery mode will apply any ZIP that starts with "update-" -- is there a concern about dropping something in there to flash, but it tries going to the Nook's EMMC memory instead (even though I never rooted it?)

2. When I look in ROM manager, it gives the option to install CWM. Will that harm verygreen's recovery thingy? Is there any reason to install CWM on this SD install?

I guess I'm wondering how careful I should be when operating on SD card installs, of what might get accidentally written to the EMMC or what not.

I'm familiar with CWM/AMON-RA on my Evo 4G - so the "recovery" boot for the SD install is a bit strange to me (no menus, just installs any "update-*.zip" and then shuts down.

Is there harm in switching the bootloader to CWM? If I mess with that route, do I dork up the "SD"ness of it all?

When I mount the drive, I see uImage, uRamDisk, etc - are those just the binary files for bootloaders, and the like? Every now and then I see some post that says to write over the uImage or something. Just wondering what those files are.

Anyhow - I'm really just interested in knowing what this low-level stuff is, whether or not I can bork it up, or have to be careful because I'm SD-installed. The verygreen/Quinxy guides made it stupid-easy to do (burn this image, drag this zip, reboot and you're done) - and want to make sure I'm not screwing stuff up as I mess about.

Just making s-off or installing custom recovery will not root ur device. U have been already given the link on how to root after s-off (in the 2nd post). Root is having su binary in system folders.

Check whether u r rooted or not by installing busybox or rom manager.

Hi

As you may know, Samsung Galaxy S and S II has mounted the sdcard not as /sdcard, but as /sdcard/external_sd . This means that most programs thats programmed to sync to SD, ends up putting things on the internal memory.

It's as simple as calling t-mobile and telling them you need to unlock it. Tell them that you're going overseas and need to have it unlocked to use on other carriers. I normally say that we're going on vacation and are going to use a pre-paid sim overseas. Then they send me an email after a couple of days with the unlock instructions + unlock code. I've done this 3 times with no problems.
[HTC Sensation] Elvis_Freshly:

This is correct. We will provide an unlock code to you free of charge with no questions asked. Just ask to be transferred to our Sim Unlock dept. and they will be more than happy to assist you.
[HTC Sensation] dacihappymaker:
oooo, i see isee, there is no a software to unlock this phone?

if this phone is already s-off, it will be unlocked ?
[HTC Sensation] alejate76:
T-Mobile will only unlock the phone for you once they can verify that you are a T-Mobile customer, or you paid full price for the phone at one of their T-mobile branded stores and can fax them a copy of the receipt. I just went through all of this with them on Monday. If you cannot do either of those 2 things, they will not help you.

The only way to get it unlocked if you are not a T-mobile customer is an unlock service. I used a guy on ebay that unlocked 2 of them for me and sent me the code within 5 mins. He charged $24.95 per phone.
