[EVO Shift 4G General] minlo:
But yet I've run into problems with stock within days....

I never said custom was perfect with no bugs....I stated its 100 times better than stock....

I feel ten times more comfortable with the brightest minds of xda then some sprint/phonebrand devs that have consistently rushed out roms with problems that xda devs fix....

Didn't cyanogen get hired onto samsung?

All these devs wouldn't be wasting their precious time building roms if they shared your opinion that stock is fine....

If everybody shared your opinion there would be no XDA....

Everybody would be on phone arena instead of a site that helps customize phones to their personal likings and truly unlocking their device/s potential....

Like i stated before the shifts stock rom isn't that bad but compared to the support and rom/themes/etc customizations here blow it out of the water....

One bonus for me recently from not using stock was when the carrier iq was discovered I knew my phone didnt have it on for more than 2 days after owning it.....

I also dont have to deal with the bloat that stock comes with...

The wimax tweaks are only allowing you to connect to a weaker signal than what sprint set it up for.....The other tweaks are reconnects, retrys times yada yada....done that and yeah i get 4g but i get get less than 3g speeds and longer load times due to reconnecting with the weak signal

I dealt with the 4g indicator bug but it didn't effect the performance of my shift like when htc sense would reload constantly on stock....Does it matter how it got fixed???Thats why this a dev community....

You just did a compare it and yes it is a more powerful SMARTPHONE, correct? Both smartphones, but both can accomplish the same things as phones are supposed to accomplish...

Apples to oranges would be comparing a watch to a calculator....LOL I mean unless the watch had a calculator:p

Apples to apple comparison's would be comparing two thing that accomplish the same thing but yet different in there own respect....

In the near future I'm buying a minivan for the fam, so with your logic while I compare minivan brands it would be apples to oranges because one van brand packs a 3.5l and the other sports 4.0l, which would make one van more powerful than the other :rolleyes:

With your logic you can't even compare the shift with the epic, the epic is more powerful by default of clock speed and gpu intergration....:D

The information here mainly deals with custom roms or custom themes custom etc etc.....The manual will teach all about your stock Shift....

By no means am i trying to imply you shouldn't be here but if your on XDA and when someone post why they would miss the site during downtime or if the issues within this topic occur, stating that you'd be fine without xda and the stock rom is A OK for you, comes off to me like you don't apprieciate all the work devs put into their releases, fixes, and customizations.....

Opinions are perfectly fine but ur statement is more less trolling a topic that you believe against but the majority supports......50,000 sigs before they enabled the site back :cool:

And i guess the owner of XDA forgot to ask you before they decided if they should show their personal support for causes that they believe in or against :eek::eek::eek: how could he/she do that :rolleyes:

I didn't state a person who wanted to bulk up :confused::confused:

How convenient for you to twist a comparison to what you think is what it was meant to mean :D:D:D

Sounds like stock is perfectly fine.......ROFL

But you win your right your statements are far more superior because i'm not part of the huddle/irc/daily poster :(

Last response on this topic for me.....

I do think you help around here alot but helping out doesn't grant you the right to troll your opinion when your not helping....

I bet there are alot of us shifters including myself that choose to lurk 99% of the time, the attitudes here sometimes make my 5 yr old seem like shes ninety years old....
