[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Just got the amaze today.basically a larger mytouch4g.Although it has a higher screen resolution,there isn't that great a difference from the mytouch.the camera is better no doubt.actually,its quite good for a camera.build is solid,yet remains light to the touch.

Sense 3.0 is so much smoother than any sense rom.

its abeautiful phone.

Recently got and unlocked a Sammy infuse.it has a nice Tom selection,which are high quality roms (Zeus) thanks dman,my daughter loves it.

I thought I'd prefer the amaze,but provably should have tried the sgs2.

Amaze is very good though!

Edit:yeah,that extra tenth of an inch on the Samsung phones makes a difference.atleast with the Zeus rom ,the infuse is kickass and so much smoother than any mytouch rom. Yet I made my choice.

Not dissatisfied,but miss that butter from the Sammy.
[myTouch 4G General] Nicgraner:
Here's the ville http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_ville-4325.php
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Yea, with pics officially getting to the amaze and the ville having those specs, for sure ill be getting the amaze instead. Just like the amaze looks best
[myTouch 4G General] Nicgraner:
I like the lack of buttons and ics with sense 4.0
[myTouch 4G General] Jms122589:
I got it off eBay for 350, still have yet to get it. Lets hope its not a POS! For every one who I know cares so much...I will let you guys know ha
[myTouch 4G General] GazaIan:
As good as that looks..... I still feel I want this; http://www.gsmarena.com/huawei_ascend_p1_s-4409.php

Specs are pretty damn good, but.. the freaking phone is 6.69mm thin. The RAZR isn't even that thin.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
lol huawei? good luck with that ;)
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Too squared for my taste
[myTouch 4G General] GazaIan:
Huawei is actually pretty good, aside from their low end piece of **** phones they originally released (Their original Ascend didn't even have a freaking GPU -_-).
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Talked to tmobile...

The Ville will hit tmobile soon.

Good thing I got 2 more upgrades.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
whoa serious?? :eek::eek:

sweetttt...

did they specify the date?
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
No specifics,they just giggle as they're trying to get me to up all phones now,but seems by April.

The amaze is sweet,but not gonna mod it.ics should be available for it by mid February.

But don't forget,this mytouch 4g still kicks ass too.

It holds its own right next to the amaze,but that bigger screen wins it.

Thanks to the awesome revs on this phone,its still badass.

That being said...wanna buy it.lol.
[myTouch 4G General] Jms122589:
Yea I feel like development just isn't stable enough for the amaze so I'm just going to wait to mod mine. I might root it tho just to take off.the bloat after ics comes out. By the way my phone came from eBay...it's not a pos just thought you guys should know ;-)
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
Seriously guys.... all i want is the Sensation.... that is one beautiful device.

sighh high school sucks haha

*i'll probably change my opinions again though xD*
[myTouch 4G General] :
No, college sucks my friend.

buuuuuut...I've been working over my long winter break and I now have about a grand to spend. : D

I still don't want to pay half a grand on a phone though, especially when a better one will come out a few months later. Ill probably pay 300 at most
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
That's the hard part...when to stop waiting and actually buy one. The Ville sounds awesome, except for one thing: the screen. It's a qHD instead of the current high-end standard, 720p. T-Mobile always manages to be behind the competition in some way. If it's not coverage, it's data speeds. If it's not data speeds, it's their phones specs. All other new phones are 720p: Galaxy Nexus, Rezound, etc, etc. I want the Ville, but I don't want to spend money on a phone that's already outdated. That's the thing with T-Mobile, whatever you get from them will always be outdated the day it's released. That's the main reason I'm switching to VZW...about the same cost, with better coverage, better data speeds, and actually current spec devices. Rant: over. :rolleyes:
[myTouch 4G General] :
About the same cost?

And have you seen the info about the new galaxy s blaze? I'm thinking its the galaxy nexus for t-mobile possibly, well with touchwiz probably.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
+1, i may just be a high schooler, but i know that Verizon costs wayyy more than T-Mobile will ever cost... though both are better than AT&T... hahaha

Galaxy Nexus with touchwiz?? wtf xD

doubt it though... otherwise the Nexus S would've came with that same crap... lol
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
My friend has a smartphone plan on VZW. He only has slightly fewer anytime minutes and 2GB vs my 5GB of data. My monthly bill with no overages comes to about $84, his comes to $92. I'll pay the extra 8 bucks for infinitely better coverage, data speeds, and devices.
[myTouch 4G General] :
I dunno man...a friend of mine just got the rezound and has the unlimited plan and what not, and he ended up using about 12gbs of data after about two weeks.

The 4g speeds are insane though. But it also drains battery. A lot.

---------- Post added at 07:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:22 PM ----------

I don't remember if it had touchwiz or not but it's basically what the galaxy s 4g was to the vibrant. Except this is an upgrade of the galaxy s ii. But it has been confirmed it has the new 720p screen.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
OH MY GOSH... 12GB????? am i reading right???

what does he DO with his phone haha...

my whole FAMILY combined can't reach 12 GB in 2 months.... woww lol
[myTouch 4G General] :
Downloading all the crap he missed out on when he had the original droid. He was so jealous of my phone for the longest time...
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
:eek: haha woww...
[myTouch 4G General] :
Yea, he's currently obsessed with the playstation emulator...I never should've showed him that.

---------- Post added at 08:40 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:39 PM ----------

Oh, dude accused you of trolling btw in the other thread. Lol
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
wait who accused me? O_o
[myTouch 4G General] :
Ha, you saw it but you replied to it as well. -_- lol
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
lmaoo thanks to your post ;)

i checked after you posted that. check the times LOL :D
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
already got the amaze,but its just a bigger mytouch.

have problems with it dropping calls (not alot,but a few),poor wifi connectivity,terrible internet speeds,it usually gets stuck in 2 g,while my nicely vamped up mytouch will be at 3g,or H.its a nice phone,but i decided to order the hercules last night.

now,rooting the amaze,yeah it might do something,but those roms arent ready for primetime it seems,but nrgz is there now too.

i say get the hercules a this time.

last night i saw a guy with one nad he ran a speed test while i was selling him one of my old mytouch's,and well he hit 15 mbps.i think i got a 4 on my amaze.

sux to be me,but not for long.
[myTouch 4G General] GazaIan:
I was actually thinking about this too, but when you have the next flagship right around the corner, why bother? The only thing you can't guaruntee is if it will get dev support like the Sensation, I don't know how rich developers are but I'm sure they can't buy everything.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
It has actually been difficult passing up the sensation due to the development.but I say its good for another year,but 2 years,idk.
[myTouch 4G General] DKMikey:
For $80, we have the unlimited everything plan on T-Mobile...for two people.

What kind of deals are you looking at?
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
Lol yeah that's what I'm worried about... if i ever DO get a Sensation, it'd be too late and everyone's moved on already :p
[myTouch 4G General] :
Whoa, so you're keeping the amaze and ordering the galaxy s ii? Someone's got some money here...
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Well I do have job at the pet shop, xmcleaning **** out of the puppy cages.

The more I scoop the more I earn.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
But actually,argued politely with 2 different customer service reps that kept quoting different numbers,add different prices on the computer,then complain a little,trade and sell old phones,then scoop puppy ****,and booom, you got a new phone.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
And after all that...

go back to the glacier cuz its that good!
[myTouch 4G General] :
So you got it through t-mo?
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
My girls amaze doesn't have any of the problems you mentioned. Everything is actually the opposite. That phone was a beast right out of the box. Well, the one I got her is. The dual core is super fast. No lag at all. The 4g speeds are insane. Features are great. Specially being able to bring up the camera by pressing and holding the dedicated camera button while is locked.

Now that I unlocked it, rooted and added faux kernel and tether app, thing is unstoppable.

By the way, on the amaze I don't think is has a 3g icon only 2g and 4g. So you will never see 3g.
[myTouch 4G General] urmothersluvr:
It will be on 3g it just doesn't wanna show you cuz people would flip out since they bought a 4g phone and they are on 3g. Its with all stock roms like the mytouch, sensation, g2, sgs4g they connect to 3g but always show 4g
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
all settings are correct apn/mobile data.it just sux right now.

Hmmm...

Gonna run a speed test,that is as soon as I get a signal,having to reboot now.,but dropped calls,maybe its just tmpbile/signal,but eff it,I'm in Chicago.maybe too much traffic,idk. The amaze does feel silky smooth,nut just not getting amazed by the actual/real life performance,yet!

Maybe I'll move to a farm town,then it'll work better.oh yeah,I forgot to add force closes,not alot,but happens too much.
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Yes, I know this. Reason why I said it doesn't have a 3g icon. I know that when on 3g or 4g service it still shows the 4g icon just different speed. But I know what you mean. Some people do not understand this.
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
It force closes? Hmmm there gotta be something wrong there. What force closes?
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Gonna call T-Mobile to troubleshoot.
[myTouch 4G General] Jms122589:
Well I have had my amaze for a few days now and I can say I like it alot. I came off the mytouch 4g so I really miss the development aspect. However I have.had good internet connectivity no TV's and decent battery life (about 10 hours). That's with wifi data and constant use. I have yet to root this thing. Anyone wanna fill me in on how to delete bloat without flashing a new rom? I feel like the Tom's arnt quite ready yet
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Talked with T-Mobile.

Phone/hardware is phone,but the line is having issues.

Tech support to follow up.

So...

Yeah,if I see those nice advertised speeds soon,the phone will be very nice,high five.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Go the amaze forum and follow binary's instructions.

Can't see an advantage to voiding the warranty at this point.

Actually was trying to get the identifier token when I had to go to church,boy am I glad I didn't unlock the bootloader now.
[myTouch 4G General] mrmako777:
good luck with the s2. i bought one and sent it back 2 days later. not paying $500 for a phone that has poor screen resolution, looks like **** with the brightness turned down and has ghost lines and blobs. go to the s2 forum and see the issues. thought it was just a random occurrence, but looks like MOST t989 have the bad screen issue and unfortunately, i was a victim too. guess ill be waiting for something better...
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
Poor screen resolution? Your display may have had problems, but it certainly was not a resolution issue. The SGS2 has the same WVGA 800x480 resolution as the MT4G and many other smartphones.
[myTouch 4G General] aznprodgy:
I still have my eyes on the HTC Edge/Zeta, if it ever comes out lol. the GalaxySIII looks pretty good spec-wise, but Im not a fan of samsung (Im half korean, how ironic haha) or touchwiz

http://www.gsmarena.com/htc_edge-4320.php
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
Love HTC, I'm Taiwanese, and PROUD OF IT. :D

-Team MS
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Is funny how all these new devices coming out months/year after the amaze, have the same specs as the amaze. The amaze is going to be the IT device for a long time.
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Well...this sammy is smooth as butter.side by side,the amaze is gorgeous,but this t989 doesnt feel or look bad.

gotta give the t989 a slight edge.

Most mods ate already stock,very customizable.heres the thing...

For 2 days I have stayed in 4g.battery life was exvellent yesterday.

I didnt plug in the charger until 9pm,but I didnt evem have too at that time either.

Winner t989.

But new amaze will be in tomorrow.

Without mobile data on amaze,the battery still runs hot,and lasts only a few hours.
[myTouch 4G General] mrmako777:
it does, but remember that the t989 screen is 4.52" and ours is 3.8", the dpi is lower on the s2, hence, less image clarity. trust me man, apart from the ghost lines and blobs, i wouldve kept that phone even with the lower dpi. the s2 is a beast! really bummed about sending it back :(
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
That is a really good point, and the reason I never minded the MT4G's smaller 3.8" display. Before qHD, when WVGA was the highest, everyone was clamoring for 4.3" displays like on the OG Evo and Thunderbolt. What many people didn't seem to realize was how much lower the pixel density is on those displays! The only way I'd want a display larger than 4.0" is if it's qHD resolution or higher.

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/02/upda...new-details-for-lg-mytouch-line-sensation-4g/

Hahahahahaha
[myTouch 4G General] Jms122589:
....yea that's kinda old news it doesn't really mean anything
[myTouch 4G General] :
It means there has to be a new phone coming soon which makes me feel bad for those who just recently got the amaze.
[myTouch 4G General] ext1rpate:
I hate to admit it but I think I might be upgrading here soon as my contract is about to expire and will be getting a new phone. Looks like I will probably list my phone on craigslist soon. Can anyone recommend a phone with a lively dev. community that I could upgrade to?
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
HTC Sensation. definitely. I would upgrade to that phone if I could...

-Team Inferno

"Quality, not speed"
[myTouch 4G General] ext1rpate:
Looks like I can squeeze 200 dollars off my mt4g, love craigslist :)... how much would a used sensation run do you think? I can probably hold off on an upgrade until some of the quad phones start coming out, like the s3.
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
Yes, the ville. But in my opinion, from the video and the specs I've seen of the ville, the amaze it still the same if not a better phone specially that it will be getting and official ics update. So it really doesn't matter.
[myTouch 4G General] aznprodgy:
I see them being sold on CL for $200-$300...$300 being mint so Id say $250 for 9/10 quality and $200 for 8/10
[myTouch 4G General] yaddamean:
As nice as the Amaze is, I would not buy it unless it really drops in price. Have you been to their development page? Theres no devs there. They dont even have S-off and not even sense 3.5. They have one major dev and its some snotty 16 year old kid with a ****ty attitude.
[myTouch 4G General] Jms122589:
Yea there really isn't much development here, but the roms we have are pretty quality tho. X may be a little angsty at times but he knows what he's doing. I do feel like i have leaned alot about development since we are forced to do things "the hard way" sometimes.I do really miss team royal and tdj type development tho. However the amaze is a solid phone with a beautiful display, nice camera and nice form factor. I got it off eBay off contract but I don't regret spending the cash at all.
[myTouch 4G General] :
True, but from those video leaks, sense 4.0 or whatever it is looks like **** IMO. They took it overboard with the animations.

I'm trying to get a galaxy s2, I feel like that phone suits me more OS wise, and tdj's there as well. I love htc, but sense is it's downfall. I rooted my phone as soon as I figured out how when I got it a year ago and flashed cm7.
[myTouch 4G General] coupetastic-droid:
The amaze is a great device out the box. You don't even need s-off just and unlocked bootloader. I know first hand. I bought my girls amaze, came s-on(lucky few will receive it s-off) unlocked it and rooted it the same week. I have not even flashed custom rom because its that good. Just added setcpu to under clock to save battery, wireless tether and custom battery icon.

And by the way, the amaze is costing I believe right now $150 till Feb 20th.
[myTouch 4G General] urmothersluvr:
You should try to get one its a great phone. I got a like new 3 week old one for 300 with everything. Sold my mytouch to a friend for 150. Could of got 200 for it so it was a big upgrade for not that much
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
Mann i really wanna Sensation LOL...

hoping to get it for my birthday.... :rolleyes:
[myTouch 4G General] DKMikey:
Considering I really only use my phone to check email, browse the web, and not to play games, having the latest tech really is that important to me.

But since I love trying out different ROMs, having a good development for the phone is. I'm glad that I still have a MT4G. :cool:
[myTouch 4G General] :
So who here has an amaze and loves it?

Still trying to figure out if I'm just dead set on a galaxy s ii. Everything just seems to point towards it other than the lack of a high res screen.
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
You guys all must have a different mentality towards phones then I do. Because technology progresses so fast, it doesn't make any sense to me to buy anything less than the absolute bleeding edge. The Sensation and Amaze are both far too old to consider, and would be already outdated the day you bring it home. Even the Ville, being a "mid-range" device, isn't even something I'm considering. I guess I'm waiting until T-Mobile comes out with a 720p display HTC device (that will hopefully be quad core by that time, but maybe not).
[myTouch 4G General] astanley4:
Amaze also had lot of same hardware as mt4g anyways
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
The MT4G and Amaze have different:

- CPU

- GPU

- RAM

- internal memory

- screen size

- screen resolution

- main camera

- FFC camera

- battery

Tell me what about the two phone's hardware is the same.
[myTouch 4G General] gbondoc:
Are you using some kind of futuristic mt4g with specs similar to the amaze?
[myTouch 4G General] yaddamean:
No doubt its a nice phone. Ive played with one and its better than the sensation. It feels like a larger MT4G. I would consider buying one if the price is right but its not worth a contract over considering quad core phones are around the corner.
[myTouch 4G General] :
Nah, I just accept the fact that you'll never have the best phone when it comes to Android devices, so I'm up for anything bigger than a mytouch 4g. Plus, my cousin may be letting me buy her upgrade, I don't get an upgrade for another year, and I'm perfectly fine with having one of the current top phones for another year.

Edit:

Oh, I forgot I just saw this.

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/02/target-retail-stores-to-stock-white-t-mobile-samsung-galaxy-s-ii/
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
I won't? Says who? :p The MT4G was in that category being the first HTC device in the US with a second gen Snapdragon and 768MB RAM. My next phone will be similarly high end, at least on release.
[myTouch 4G General] poexone:
Valentine's Sale

I am thinking about picking up an Amaze. They are going on sale for Valentines.

http://www.tmonews.com/2012/02/breaking-down-the-handset-cost-for-t-mobiles-valentines-day-sale/

I see a lot of positive comments on this thread about it. I was pretty sure I wanted the Samsung Galaxy S II, but I've always had an HTC phone and I think I will go with the Amaze.
[myTouch 4G General] DKMikey:
The manufacturer ;)
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
Yes, and they still have almost nothing in common hardware-wise. ;)
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
lol if he had said the MT4G Slide, then i would've seen that... :rolleyes:
[myTouch 4G General] :
And then a few months later something will come out even better.

But like I said, I could care less about waiting til htc brings out another phone, if I can get my hands on a phone better than this, I'll take it and happily use it for another year til my upgrade. :D

But really, I want the galaxy s ii after watching some reviews on it.

Even though that screen blob thing exists, as long as it's not terribly bad and gets worse over time, I'll gladly take that. Some of it's features are better than the amaze's IMO, like pictures and video recording. Apparently htc still hasn't changed anything about video recording, cause when you playback the recorded video the audio still sounds tinny. That annoys the piss out of me about this phone right now.
[myTouch 4G General] mackster248:
Yeah HTC does and always has had terrible speaker quality, as well as audio recording quality. Who knows when they'll ever address that.
[myTouch 4G General] GazaIan:
Won't be new for long. You'll be outdated quickly. Quite frankly though, I could care less; my myTouch4G can still run everything out of the Market one way or another, still records in HD albeit 720p, so the latest phone doesn't make much of a difference. I would still go for a Sensation.
[myTouch 4G General] nba1341:
For a phone that came out a month after the Sensation it is still years behind in terms of rom development. Whatever new phone I get it has to have good development
[myTouch 4G General] DKMikey:
Correct me if I'm wrong, but I'm pretty sure that the HTC Sensation went international as well. That means much development due to the larger user base.
[myTouch 4G General] TeeJay3800:
That's absolutely why. It sold well on T-Mobile USA, but those sales alone aren't responsible for it's massive popularity.
[myTouch 4G General] saranhai:
yup... the Sensation is one of HTC's flagship devices...

huge popularity...
[myTouch 4G General] sunlaw2:
Its good.but t989 is better.I'm telling you guys.

Sensation is better than myt4g, but at this time its not worth the upgrade.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkokonut:
I have an incredible that bootloops at the white screen that was s-on that I got to repair. I tried to flash the gingerbread RUU through hboot and the exe and it still bootlooped. I saw that the official unlock method came out so I updated to the 1.02.0000 hboot and unlocked the phone. I flashed cwm through fastboot but the phone still bootloops. Since the official unlock doesn't allow all the fastboot commands, I can't completely wipe the system or flash different radios, hboot, NV etc. I think this phone is completely bricked unless I can find an RUU that will work with the 1.02.0000 hboot. Since you can't flash RUUs while the phone is unlocked, I have to relock and then I get the main version is older error.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] cmlusco:
Try flashing this one thru hboot. Its stock GB ruu modified for new hboot.

http://dinc.does-it.net/New_Hboot/StockGB/PB31IMG.zip

And also try this. Its cwm recovery updated for the new hboot.

http://dinc.does-it.net/New_Hboot/CWM_5.2.0.2/PB31IMG.zip
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] evilkokonut:
thanks for the files. The RUU reads but stops after parsing. The cwm file does flash correctly, but I still cannot access recovery. I think the partitions are corrupt on the internal memory and I can't ADB in to fix them without recovery. Sucks, I spent way too much time trying to fix this phone. Its perfect condition, but its not worth my time anymore. Hopefully I can resell it for what I paid.
[Droid Incredible Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] nismith8:
these files need to be stickied somewhere. I searched for around 4 hours on how to root after htcdev unlock and finally found this :D
