I don't get it I feel like there's a lot of hate towards Sprint these days. Be patient guys. One month from now and all these conversations will sound silly. Can you guys imagine what the devs are going to with this phone? Yes we can't change the hardware but in terms of power this thing is a beast. Turn off 3d and compare it to a STOCK EVO,there is no comparison.

If people really don't like it, RETURN it. Don't whine that it sucks,RETURN IT!!!!

Buy what makes you happy.

Don't fear CHANGE, accept it. Winners write history books.

The EVO 3D is exactly what I expected it to be based on the specs I were given.

To say you aren't impressed means you were either looking for something that wasn't there, or are just very anal, both of which are a fail.

Based on the specs that have been around since March 23, 2011, what the hell were you expecting that you didn't get on launch day? Besides 1080p 2D recording?
[HTC EVO 3D] klbjr:
Nobody is saying that because one phone has a better screen than another phone that it makes it better phone. Just a phone with a better screen. I like how you guys take what you want out of a statement and somehow then make that the point of statement. And regardless of how much of a Android fanboy you may be, there is no way that you have looked at the "IPS" screen and not wished your phone had it. Not wished you had THAT phone, but the screen! I know I do.

I apologize for the name calling. I was out of line. It's just hard to be objective on this site because of the children who troll every post. And I'm not trying to get any attention. I was just stating how I felt about the phone so far and to see if anybody else felt the same. Apparently we are in the minority but I'm not the only one.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
IPS has nothing to do with the resolution. It's a technology used to improve viewing angles on lcd screens.

Because you only make one bullet point on why you dislike the EVO 3d at a time... So how else do you expect responses

* it wasn't a big "upgrade" from EVO 4G

Our point is YES it is in almost all aspects

*the screen isn't as good as I thought

Our point is your comparing screens for a argument now

* I'm gonna insult people for there opinions even though mine doesn't mean ****

Our point is its the internet.. we are all "executive CEO's of a review website and a professor in technology based college" deal with our opinions or don't ask general ****ing questions and opinions...

No I'm arguing with the people who took my screen comments as the basis of my OP. The OP and in my comments after that I also talked about how the camera and Sense weren't a major upgrade either. Which is actually the basis of my OP. That the phone while nice, just didn't improve that much over the OG Evo to impress me all that much. IMO!!! I'm also not the only person to feel that way. If you feel that it is a major upgrade, than ok, I'm not bashing you or anyone else on how they feel. It's all a matter of opinion and that was the basis of the OP. To get other people's opinion on the phone so far. I respond to "you must be retarded" "I bench 500lbs" and the rest of the childish statements that have nothing to do with what was the basis of the whole converstaion.
[HTC EVO 3D] freeza:
Sense 3.0 is a vast upgrade over version 1.x on the EVO 4G. If you don't notice that, you obviously aren't paying close attention to the small things. Having what looks like the same weather clock is misleading as to what's actually upgraded between Sense versions.
[HTC EVO 3D] ExploreMN:
klbjr, you might want to just give up and not visit the Evo 3D forums.

You're getting a lot of hate, but what did you expect? You come on to a forum designed to support and promote a particular product and then you post an relatively pointless troll-like post about how much you dislike it.

Yeah, people are going to rip you apart. This isn't Engadget where you can get thumbs up clicks for trashing on the device.

If you are so miserable, use your 30 day return policy to return the phone and go over to Verizon or AT&T and get an iPhone with it's super amazing display and be happy about it.

There, over and done.

In all honesty, the op was a little pointless. He's disappointed in things he knew prior to purchasing the device. It's like me going onto a BMW forum and saying I'm not impressed with my M3 because it doesn't have a 600hp engine and 8 speed transmission. Things I knew upon purchasing...

[HTC EVO 3D] rockky:
Agree...completely ...
[HTC EVO 3D] original00:
I also agree. I don't understand how people say it's not much of an upgrade over the evo and then agree it has

More space for apps

More memory

Better processor (2 generations over the Evo snapdragon)

Higher resolution screen

Upgraded sense (2 generations over original Evo sense 1.0)

Added a 3d camera at no extra cost ......e.t.c

You can't argue that it isn't much of an upgrade when clearly it is, unless you clearly state what features it is missing that you would have added. We all understand every phone cannot have every feature as most customers are not willing to pay $400-500 for our phones on contract and the simple fact that there are tradeoffs with every gadget. You choose the one you use based on the tradeoffs you are willing to live with

The fact is we have reached a stage in phone technology that there is no "need" to replace a phone every year and expecting monumental changes from the manufacturer in year is not realistic or make good business sense as it comes back to the "cost factor".

Sorry for the long reply buy I keep seeing this opinion on many forums with no real substance to back it up.

This thread got way too much attention. I don't feel like we should have to justify how great this phone is to someone who is apparently a troll. We should have let this thread die and moved on.

[HTC EVO 3D] klbjr:
How am i a troll? I never once bashed this phone or anyone who voiced their opinion on how much they like or dislike the phone. I was right there in line bright and early on release day just like a lot of you. Just like I was when the OG Evo was released. I know the phone is great. I never said it wasn't. Again you miss the whole point because you read what you want and ignore everything else. The phone doesn't impress me that much when compared to my OG Evo. Plain and simple. I'm not the only person to post on here that feels the same way. You can agree or disagree. Doesn't make you a troll. Means you have a difference of opinion. Ok. Agree or disagree and move on. Nobody including myself needs you or anybody else to justify anything to us. I'm not new to HTC phones, Android phones or smartphones in general nor am I new to this site. I knew what I was getting when I purchased the phone and so far I'm not all that impressed.

[HTC EVO 3D] Quiksmage:
what HTC needs to do is add hardware acceleration and make the sense ui run at a suitable 30-60 fps. The hardware is definitely capable, but the software is lazy. Half the reason the galaxy s2 feels so much snappier is hardware acceleration. I hate touchwiz, but at least they know that a priority should be spent on fluidity.

Coming from a MikG ROM which already has Sense 2.1/3.0 on my EVO 4G , I have to agree with the OP. The 3D doesn't seem like a big upgrade over the original for my needs. I'm going to return it and probably get an iPhone in Sept if it finally comes to Sprint (flame suit on).

I've been with Sprint the last 12 years and have been using WinMo and Android so I'm kinda curious about the iPhone. Don't get me wrong, I'm still keeping my EVO and will be switching between the two devices. I'll probably use my EVO 4G more since I use almost every Google app on the web and my phone.

im happy to report that with the amount of phones on my account, i can afford to burn an upgrade on this line. it was worth it in my eyes, the phone is obviously 3x faster then my regular evo, plus it pushes the capability for further firmware upgrades and development for the next couple years. yeah its a 3d phone, but i didnt buy it on the 3d alone and i hope nobody else did... smh if thats what you thought would take you to the next level of phones. and if you think you want to satisfy your iphone curiosity by waiting for the next one, well heres a news flash... whatever it comes out with, probably has already been seen/heard/touched/smelled... plain and simple... hell they just started multitasking, i been doin that **** back on my touch pro!

[HTC EVO 3D] Ph33zy:
I've had a PPC-6700, Mogul, Vogue, TP, TP2, and now EVO and while I've never used an iPhone, i have got to believe that its better than a TP with or without multitasking. Now that I've used an EVO, I can't imagine why I suffered all those years on WinMo with the constant freezes and soft resets even with custom ROMs and minimal programs installed. I remember getting the dreaded SOD on my TP2 once a day even with MightyROM! Honestly, the EVO does everything I need it to do (except take stutter free videos of my 5 month old son), but using my upgrade for a phone that is marginally better for my needs didn't seem worth it. Don't get me wrong, I'm in no way hating on the Evo3D. I'd definitely keep it if I came from a TP2 or Hero or any other phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] ausch30:
You said it yourself, 3D is an extra. As several of the reviews of this phone have stated, it is among the most powerful phones currently available. 3D is really nothing more than a fun extra included with one of the best phones on the market. And as for this guy

Your phone isn't even activated, you haven't even used it, how can you possibly think you have an honest opinion of it's performance or value?

This phone is not the revolution that the OG EVO was, it is an evolution of the original design (2+ times as powerful) with some entertaining extras.
[HTC EVO 3D] Overstew:
I like the phone, but I 100% need a phone I can toy around with (probably my biggest hobby, trying out ROMs, themes, etc.) If HTC can't deliver that soon, then I'll hold out for the SGSII. I also can't stand SENSE!!! GAWW (meh, the lockscreen is okay.)
[HTC EVO 3D] klbjr:
I agree 100%!!! Granted the hardware is nice but without root its nothing special. Sure its fast but there are other fast phones out there. The dual core doesn't come in to play because we have nothing that actually uses both cores. It's not like desktop computers. There isn't much that we do with our phones that are that CPU intensive. It's not like were encoding movies or video editing. The multitasking on this phone works just like it did on the OG Evo. They gave us more space for apps but just how many apps are you gonna install? I had 40 on my OG Evo & had room for more. That with my 32GB class 10 Lexar & A2SD I had all the space I would ever need.

Point is without root to really open up the phone & give us something to play with I don't see this phone as being that much of a upgrade over the OG Evo. We had root when? Like the same day of release? And the talk from TeamWin on permanent root doesn't look promising & from what I read we're gonna need not only unlocked bootloaders but also a unlocked nand because even with the bootloaders unlocked & root we still won't be able to flash a recovery or ROM without the nand being unlocked. So this phone is starting to look more & more unimpressive everyday.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I very sadly agree....very very sadly. I've been following the E3D and Sensation development threads like a hawk, a very bored hawk, and I have to agree that the further they get the more daunting (or, more likely, impossible) the task appears.

But what to wait for? SGS2? Nexus Prime (or whatever the hell it will be called)?

Truth be told my EVO4G still hauls ass and runs a rom I can actually stand to look at....that and I do rather hate the 16:9 form factor.
[HTC EVO 3D] firsttimer44:
As much as I don't want to agree with the OP I really have to. I am a huge OG EVO fan, and it really has been the best phone I have ever had. With that in mind I went and picked up the evo 3d without a moment of hesitation. After opening it and playing with it for 10 minutes I became pretty disappointed.

Don't get me wrong, it's an awesome phone. The only problem is I feel like I just traded in a 2010 Ferrari for a 2011 Ferrari, not much of a difference. I know the speed is there, and the screen is there, but it's just not winning me over. The 3d is fun for 30 seconds at best and the sound quality is absolutely terrible. Youtube videos and anything played over the speaker make me want to break the phone it is so quiet.

I am praying either this stupid bootloader gets unlocked or the galaxy sII comes out before my 30 days or up or I don't know what I am going to do. If we don't get root in 30 days I am probably just going to return the 3d and use a crappy sprint phone until something better comes out, and I have a feeling it won't take long for something much better to come out.
[HTC EVO 3D] vboyz103:
I like the phone regardless of the fact that HTC will unlock the bootloader or not, the 3D is simply stunning and maybe i'm a big 3D fan.

Overall, it's a major upgrade from old pal Evo 4G. Talking of which, I missed my old pal since I traded it in....missed all the custom rom loading...:(
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Unfortunately you might be missing it for the next two years :(
[HTC EVO 3D] Jungle Jack:
Hello,

Given that many of us paid very little money to change to the 3D, just the extension in Battery Life makes this a worthwhile change IMO. I was really expecting the worst as far as BL goes with 3D and 3.0 but have utterly astonished with how long the 3VO keeps a Charge.

We are Early Adopters. With this comes having to deal with not having Root, the Icons not showing up after Reboot/Restart, etc, but I do think HTC will cave into unlocking the Bootloader soon. There are just too many people who are literally counting down the days and will Return the Phone if there is not Root by July 21/24.

Personally while I would love to have Root, the major reason I wanted it in the first place was to have Hulu. However, with Netflix, HBO GO, Sprint TV, TV.Com, HTC Watch, and Blockbuster, I could care less about Hulu now. Especially with Netflix.

I got especially lucky. I sold my 4G for 300 Dollars, got 100 Dollars in Credits from Sprint, and got my Upgrade moved from September to June, 1st. This meant even after an Otterbox Defender Case, I am still way in the Black. And thanks to being a PG Member, it will only be 12 Months before my Eligibility is renewed.

This Phone has been out for barely a week. HTC has told many people they are going to unlock the Bootloader. I have never had reason to doubt them and while the Galaxy S2 looks most promising, Samsung is way behind when it comes to Android OS Updates. I am also not a huge fan of their Gwhiz or whatever their GUI is.

Cheers,

JJ
[HTC EVO 3D] klbjr:
Yes when you compare the two phones at release, but the Evo 4G now gets pretty good battery life & with my 3500 Seidio & SBC kernel I get 2 days out of a charge. That in of itself isn't enough to warrant a upgrade. Plus for the price of the 3D you could buy 3 Seidio batteries or get 15 of the cheap knockoffs they sell on EBay. Have heard people get pretty good results with those also. Now if your coming from a really old phone than it us a nice upgrade but coming from the Evo 4G or Epic I'm really starting to doubt this purchase. Just hoping we get root/bootloader/nand unlock soon or a firm date on GSII/Prime.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Definitely agree. I've had to swallow a couple bitter pills for this phone--even before the bootloader fiasco.

First is the god damned 16:9 aspect ratio (yes, I'm still *****ing about it)...but the resolution makes up for that, even if it makes the phone a hair too small...

Then there are the little things like the speaker "grate" nonsense...I'm sure the speaker is more than capable underneat that man-hole cover....the peculiar inconsistencies in Sense. I hate sense, sure, matter of opinion...but how come when you go to send a picture NOW you have to decide to do that before you view the picture directly? same for cropping and effects... a peculiar design decision when the previous method worked perfectly AND made sense.

...and let's not even get into that bastard of a battery cover...or the fact that at least one of our two back cameras will always be very very very very fingerprinty constantly...and why that isn't recessed somehow--even by a thin protruding bezel--I'll never know....and that back side is ass ugly on the top half.

...and I definitely got nearly the same (and often better) battery life out of my 4G OC'd to 1190 with performance governer...CFS HAVS SBC FTW....

But the lack of customization is really killing my morale...that's where people like us will see the REAL power of this hardware. Otherwise after all the bloat and mediocrity are taken into consideration (not to mention the lack of use for that second core this early in the game) we're achieving pretty much the same level of performance we were used to with only a bump in resolution to show for it...

/rant

sorry, my flash addiction withdrawls are killing me...I've been flashing my 4G to try new stuff even though I can't really even use it during the day....sad, really. I should ween myself off with drugs for the time being

If you have to start a thread with the words "I know ill get flamed", its probably not a thread that needs posted. Just saying...
[HTC EVO 3D] klbjr:
Actually it was a good thread. It's just the immature people on this site who can't be objective. So far I've seen a few people post, that pretty much have the same feelings I have about the phone. It's the fanboys on here who will deny, argue & flame in the defense of something, knowing full well that someone else may have a valid point but their pride or stupidity won't let them admit it. I for one love Android & HTC but I'm able to be objective and realize when something about one of their products is lacking or admit when another company or OS does something better than our device. I've accomplished what the point of the OP was....to see if anybody else out there feels the same way.
[Verizon Droid Incredible 2] TheAtheistReverend:
I'm trying to get at some images out of some icon packs for Better-Cut to put them on my LPP dock. LPP doesn't allow me to choose from the same icon packs I can use to make icons for the rest of the home screen but it does give me the option to use a "custom image". Now if I could get at the images themselves and copy them to my gallery, I could use those as my "custom images".

But I cannot find them for the life of me.

Anyone got any ideas as to where they might be?
