[HTC EVO 3D] anotherhawkeye:
I'm blown away by 3D couple of times I played with the phone in sprint store. Before seeing 3D in action, I was leaning heavily towards SGS2. SGS2 is thinner, faster, has better camera, 1080p recording and I like Touchwiz better than sense.

But 3D is tilting my decision towards Evo 3D. 3D images are cool. More than cool, I believe it adds real value to an image. Looking at 2D photos, I can feel that I'm missing something.

That brings me to my real question -

As cool as 3D is, how practical is it? I mean, I can take 3D pictures and videos for my own sake. But one of the real pleasure of taking photos in a phone is to share in email/FB. But I can't send 3D images to any one unless they happen to own a Evo 3D as well. No one I know has 3D TV or monitors (neither do I). There are no 3D tablets/laptops (yet).

My concern is, if 3D is not practical and the only way to view the photos taken in the phone is in the phone itself, I think after couple of months, I'll stop using 3D altogether and start regretting that I got this phone instead of SGS2.

What is your opinion? Is 3D a real useful feature or is it a gimmick/fad that you think you'll stop using after the honeymoon period?
[HTC EVO 3D] ktrotter11:
If you take it in 3d its not stuck in 3d..

EVO was first with front camera and 4G now everybody is doing it..

I expect the same to happen with 3d, the tech is getting better and once these old people that only remember there terrible 3d from the 70's go away then adoption will boom

But i digress

[HTC EVO 3D] ilovesoad:
The evo 3d is stereoscopic, right? I think it's mostly a gimmick, and the situation you described in the op are probably correct. Plus, the 3d function on my 3ds has already gotten a bit old. It can give headaches too.
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
I had to share this one. Really shows how good this 3D can be.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=StD8W9v5FaI&feature=youtube_gdata_player
[HTC EVO 3D] darkflame:
I'd say honestly that the 3D may seem gimmicky but honestly it's a nice feature to have. I honestly hardly use my camera. I rarely did on my evo, I rarely did on my epic. I'll probably rarely use it on my 3vo but the parallax screen function of the phone makes watching videos fun. Knowing that I have a camera that does 3D might inspire me to put more use into it. The 3D world has just been blown open thanks to HTC and also thanks to youtube for making it so easy to share the content.

I think that while I may hardly use my camera I will definitely be quick to snap up anything that seems nice and serene just for the sake of being able to share the experience in a more vivid way.

I would say be a part of the rEVOlution and get yourself the 3vo.

Hopefully other makers will start incorporating the parallax technology even if they don't offer the 3d cameras because there is a lot to be seen here.
[HTC EVO 3D] craig.pulliam:
A front facing camera was a gimmick till everyone had one. Putting 3D capability in more hands will make it more of a necessity than a gimmick. How many people out there wish they could watch 3D content but cant afford an expensive 3DTV? I paid $61 for my phone. If the technology is readily available for anyone it will catch on and at $199 or less it doesnt get more readily available than that. So much content is going to be uploaded of the next few weeks and months from this particular handset it will blow your mind. IMHO, it catches on in a big way.

3D is mostly useful when photographing members of the Handsome Boy Modelling School.
[HTC EVO 3D] UhQ:
3d is great.. And the 3VO is actually faster than the SGS2 most of the time.. Or the same speed in some cases
[HTC EVO 3D] rrsweet:
How useful is it? 100% pointless. Very few people (relatively speaking) that you will be able to share them with with out handing them your phone. That was fun at 1st by the way. already 2 days in I'm sick of letting other hold her.

With that being said once more people get on board with 3D and I really do believe the will for TV and phones. Then it will be "useful".

How cool is 3d? Phenomenal! havent even taken a 2D video, or picture yet. ;)

Not a gimmick just a gigantic 3D Cherry on top of your evo sunday.
[HTC EVO 3D] vinterchaos:
thats about the coolest thing i've seen, wow
[HTC EVO 3D] Abricr:
Sure, I know exactly what you're saying. Once the novelty wears off you have to be left with a device that is practical or great for everyday stuff.

If you plan on rooting, you may want to take into account the amount and types of developers that are active for each device. That's what kept me interested in the Evo 4g for the past year.

Honestly, for me, I know the 3D novelty will wear off pretty quick. But I prefer sense so I stick with HTC.
[HTC EVO 3D] jdawglx01:
3d pictures are ok. The picture needs some setting up to be really good, I think... But watch some 3d stereoscopic videos on youtube. There are some bad ones, but there are some where the effect is very impressive. There was a ocean circus one that was very cool (can't post a link...)
[HTC EVO 3D] mkansgen:
I love the 3D pictures. Much better than I expected.
[HTC EVO 3D] pkmusic:
I agree. I was not too interested in the 3d until I got a chance to play with it. I think it's so cool.
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
Right now. It's absolutely for gimmicks and casual fun.

I'm very sure that as time progresses, it'll get much more better and infinitely more useful.

It's future proof.
[HTC EVO 3D] nils16:
Well some loves 3D (as me) and some don`t like 3D!

I have a 3D Projector and monitor. Can`t wait until there will be a GSM version for Europe!
[HTC EVO 3D] CAxVIPER:
I find the 3D very good. I am golf professional and today instead of using my normal camera to tap my lessons I used my camera so I could show them a full 3d playback of there swing. now only if it was about 3000 images a second I would be happy. That is what my High speed camera does.

Also I'm not for one to drop 800-4000 on a TV. So at $160 it is well worth it.

Hi everyone I currently have the nexus s 4g and I was thinking about returning it on July 1 that will be my 30 day mark I just wanted to know what is your feedback on the evo 3d.

Can someone post standalone apks please. I searched everywhere but couldnt find them. The Cm6 apks were posted some 6months ago as an addon for any ROM

Please delete this post....
[General Questions and Answers] Terghan:
I recently rooted my new HTC Thunderbolt, and flashed Das Bamf GingerREMIX v2.1. I'd like to state that I love this rom. However, I did a re-flash with a full wipe recently, and now when I attempt to do anything within the das bamf toolkit, the little box appears with the swirling green circle and the word processing, and stays there. I can hit the search soft button to make it go away, but if I hit home, and re-enter the toolkit, it still says processing.

Now, before the re-flash I was using the toolkit with no problems, and I would definitely like to be able to again, so if anyone knows what my problem may be / ways to fix it, I would be greatly appreciative. I did do a few searches to see if anyone else had the same or similar issue, and was unable to find anything.

Thanks.

[EDIT: 6/25/11 22:18:34 MDT] - I restored the system data for the toolkit from the backup I made from when the toolkit was working. While this has fixed the issue for now, I would still love to know what may have been causing the problem.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] jchambers:
Hello Forum,

I have a samsung infused unlocked with a t-mobile unlimited 4G data plan. However; I know on some phones there is a toggle to use 4G. I don't see one here? Am I missing something?

I called t-mobile and they said I do have 4G. When I enable "data network mode" I see a "e" symbol

What do you know that I dont about this?

Thanks again!
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kwaalude:
the infuse uses a 3/4g radio band that is only compatible with ATT. Tmob uses a different frequency.

e or edge is all you're gonna get.

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
This is the case for all AT&T phones on T-Mobile to my knowledge - EDGE-only.

Same for all T-Mobile phones on AT&T.

I do not know of any phones in existence that support both T-Mo and AT&T's 3G bands. (Both T-Mo and AT&T use HSPA+ which isn't really 4G, but they've marketed it as such.)
[Samsung Infuse 4G] kwaalude:
yes this is correct.

i did read somewhere today that Samsung is making an Infuse style phone for Tmob which will be the 4.5inch super amoled + screen but sport a radio capable of using both fauxG bands from ATT and Tmob. probably to accommodate the impending merger. possible BS as i forget which link of a link of a link i clicked on to find that nugget of info, but even if it is true, it's likely to be a while as the merger hasn't even passed regulatory approval and it'd be pretty dumb to engineer a new phone before that's all said and done.

oh, it's also supposed to have NFC :)

[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Actually if you look at the specs, there's a lot of "non-infuse" stuff there... like apparently a dual-core CPU...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] The Jack of Clubs:
i dont believe those figures. it says it has a qualcomm snapdragon dual core, but samsung has their own dual core processor, the exynos, that competes with qualcomm, ti, and nvidia. its used in the galaxy s 2. i think itll have a 1.2ghz hummingbird, the same as the infuse. it has gingerbread but the rogers one will prolly have that and when it does, so will our att ones. and a 1080p camera which was originally touted when the infuse was debuted in january. its the same sensor thats in the galaxy s 2, and its disabled by software and will probably be reenabled with gingerbread. itll have a dual cell hspa radio too, but att isnt going that route, they are investing in lte for faster 4g speeds in the future. hopefully it has the same radio hardware so when the att-tmobile merger finalizes we too will have dual cell connections and thus faster speed, but its only a higher cap right now, and we arent reaching it anyways. if im right, the two i997s dont really have hardware differences.
[Samsung Infuse 4G] Entropy512:
Assuming the article is wrong just because it has a non-Samsung processor is not a good idea. Just look at the GT-i9103...
[Samsung Infuse 4G] nstong:
Some of the SGSII's have a nvidia tegra 2 no?
[Samsung Infuse 4G] phantom9000:
the tmobile version just got Bluetooth & Wi-Fi Certification. and it looks like it does have a 1.2 hummingbird.

Does that mean there is a prototype that is basically the same the as the infuse running gb? Why can't they just give it to us...

I'd look into "Prey" if I was you. It's free, and works across a bunch of devices. I have it on my Inspire, my MacBook Pro, and my iPod Touch. If your device has a front facing camera, like the iSight on my laptop, you can take pictures, and also screenshots of whatever the person who jacked it is doing. It also will tell you what WiFi network they are using, and where they are. And it's free!

He's assuming once your phone gets stolen, you'll buy a new one, using the XDA app.
[HTC Inspire 4G] zelendel:
Bottom line is if it wasn't installed first then no. With the popularity XDA has gained Obtained it is not a far shoot that anyone that stole it would end up here to remove anything that was done to it. Only real way to prevent it is not to get it stolen. Other then that not much can be done

[HTC Inspire 4G] BAleR:
Besides, ive never lost,stolen or even broke any phone ive ever had. But if it did get stolen it sure would be nice to be able to remotely turn on gps and track them. Even if someone was able to steal my phone (which will prolly never happen) id realize it so quick i should be able to get some kind of track on them before they wise up and turn it off.thats why i started this thread, i know theres lots of "find my phone" apps but i dont know which ones do what i want them to do

Haha geez dude, it's pretty straightforward, though a bad joke. If you still don't get it not worth trying haha.
[HTC Inspire 4G] elijahpr:

Greetings from the Galaxy S forums. My cousin has a Droid 2 and I noticed it was very laggy. I new it could be better. She is not tech savy and I only see her about once every couple of months, so whichever ROM I choose to put on for her has to be stable, she is thinking about switching to the iPhone because hers is so slow, so please, help me keep her on the good side of the force!
[Droid 2 General] shahm0nsterr:
Use fission rom

All you need to do is download fission rom manager and Droid 2 bootstrap I believe.

from fission rom manager you can download the rom and install. There are also themes and boot animations.

Fission is pretty much vanilla android. Download launcher pro to eliminate homescreen lag.

Also, use titanium backup to back up all apps and data she has before installing the new rom.

No, roms for every phone are different.

Also, if you can't choose a rom, download Launcher Pro on said phone. This is a homescreen replacement and will get rid of most of the homescreen lag.

If she wants to switch back to the stock launcher she needs to have

"Homesmack" and "Moto Home Fix" installed (both of these are in the market, you can install these for her as well)

Homesmack lets you choose which homescreen to set as the default. Moto Home Fix is needed if she wishes to go back to the Motorola launcher (it's not a launch-able app, just a fix to go along with Homesmack)

I have a g2 that is broken and I need help getting some things off of it.

the phone works except the screen wont come on. The touch screen works but I cant tell where I am touching.

i want to use Droid Explorer to allow me to use the screen emulator but there is one catch...

My wife never turned on the USB Debugging.

I would like a few screen shots of the STOCK G2 from TMOUS

1) I need the home screen with the menu button pressed

2) The settings screen... If "applications" fits in the first screen then just that screen... If it is below the screen then could you show me a shot of the last item on the first screen scrolled to the top so as to be able to see where "applications" will lie.

3) The shot of the "applications" page and where "USB Debugging" is

Thanks!!!!!!

[G2 and Desire Z General] :
Well I'll try and help (My replacement got the 2.3.3 update so no root)

If you can get into settings swipe down hard so you know you're at the top of the page. From there Applications should be lateral from where the charging port is on the side. Tap the same spot for development, and USB debugging should be lateral from the top of the volume up button and tap anywhere on that line (At least on GB) and it should come up with a pop up. Now put your finger right above the home button and just tap in a straight line up and stop before you get to the middle of the screen and USB debugging should be enabled. ( The phone is upright during this, make sure phone is unplugged during this or it may go to the USB storage screen, just hit back in that case and continue with your phone above the home button.)

Let me know if you need more help.

Just did it with my eyes closed so works from my end =p

This isn't a OMFGTTHTMI (Oh my XXXXXXX god the transformer has too many issues) thread. I actually love my device only problem is the lack of support/accessories/software for what I need/purchased it for has me going a different route.

After buying and selling a xoom,an iPad 2, and now the TF - I've just come to realize that what I need a "Tablet" (general terminology) for (photography) currently nothing can supplement a macbook. It truly pains me to see this go however I cannot afford to buy a new macbook and keep this.

I've got my TF + dock up for sale: http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1137013 however just doesn't seem to be getting as many hits as I thought... Hopefully I can dump this soon enough as I need to buy another MBP soon ! On that note, does my price seem fair ?

[Eee Pad Transformer General] Gary13579:
You probably need to lower the price a bit, now that the keyboard dock is everywhere. I know you spent more than that with the skin/case, but those items have piss poor resale values when bundled with the tablet.
