[EVO 4G General] monkeychef:
Look, I'm a man of patience (waited for my first laptop for 8 years after first asking for one, 4 years for just a regular cell phone), and this is my .02

The Evo 3D is a good phone. Yes, 3D is a gimmick, but most people don't buy it because of that feature. They buy it because its a good phone at a good price on a good network. It also has a great network of developers here on XDA. Now, I do think that there are better performing phones out there, such as the E4GT, but if you just want a new phone, go ahead and break your Evo 4G (btw its fraud) and get yourself a new phone.

Personally, I'm just going to wait (imagine that). I've been on Sprint for just over a year now, and I am still happily using my Evo 4G. However, I plan on living in Philly for the next 5 years, and since Philadelphia is a first round LTE market, I would like to have a new LTE phone. I love HTC, and I love the HTC Evo 4G LTE, but I'm going to wait for the GS3 just to see how they stack up against each other. I would suggest that you do the same.
[EVO 4G General] irocketeer:
i personally think the 3d kind of bad. i mean, you pay extra just for 3d! might as well stick with the 4g!
[EVO 4G General] Dgsaxhitman84:
The Evo 3d is a good phone at best... As long as your not using the 3d often as it can cause headaches
[EVO 4G General] jrollercoasters:
How's battery compared to the og and will my extended work in 3d
[EVO 4G General] NaterTots:
My brother has the 3d and it is so much quicker than my 4g. Just my opinion of course. He says the battery life is really good. Better than the 4g. Your extended will not work with it though. I believe there is an extended for the 3d though.

The 3d part is gimmicky but I think spec wise its a better phone than people think. I know I wouldn't kick it out of bed.:D
[EVO 4G General] LeslieAnn:
I don't have both but had the option (and researched it a bit) when I got my 4G.

More or less, if you disable the 3d, which many seem to prefer to do, the biggest differences seem to be that the 4G has a better (traditional) camera and arguably better looks. Otherwise they are either similar or the 3D wins (sometimes by a nose, other times by a mile).

It's an upgrade in most aspects, but for most, monetarily, it's an upgrade not worth the money. Given a choice of the two and money was no object the 3D is probably the better choice for all except flashaholics. I went 4G simply because at twice the price, I didn't feel the 3d was twice the phone.
[EVO 4G General] Saneless One:
This is simply untrue.

Android blocks off a portion of the memory for basic and necessary functions. The EVO 3D only has about 808 of its 1GB available for all of our programs. You're saying that you only get 3/4, which is essentially true, but that's not 256 more than the EVO, it's about 400 more, since the EVO 4G only has about 350 or so available for the same reason. It doesn't get 512MB.

Now, having owned the 3D for almost a year and having used the 4G for a week as a backup while my 3D was getting repaired, I have a few opinions on them.

Speed: The EVO 3D beats the 4G in plenty of ways here. Between the CPU and extra RAM, it really shows. Apps have to restart a lot more because of memory on the 4G

Screen: The extra resolution is nice on the 3D, but it's not that big of a deal once you use the 4G for a couple days.

Camera: the 3D's camera sucks. Not sure what they did to ruin it, but it's slow, blurry if anything moves even slightly, and is slow. Oh and it's slow.

Feel: I kinda like the more narrow 3D, but it's not that big of a deal. The 4G is a little heavier too, but not that much

Battery: The 3D has a higher capacity battery (1730) and it seemed to hold up better than the 4G, but it's hard to tell since I don't use my phone the same every day.

Roms: Roms on the 3D are 2 flavors: Scripted, tweaked, and themed HTC Sense roms. There's 380 of them and who knows what the difference is besides color and tweaks that break a lot of things and kill the battery. The second is a broken AOSP rom of some kind. The 4G, having most of the same innards as the legendary Nexus One, is in much better shape for this. The ICS roms for the 4G are in much better shape.

Basically I was pretty impressed with the 4G. I kinda wish I bought it used last year and then got a discount on the 4G LTE, but oh well. I wouldn't buy a 3D today, if I needed a new phone I'd buy the 4G used. But if you have a 4G and end up getting a 3D as a replacement, you'll be fine and the resolution, speed, and memory upgrades are nice. Unless you just played with ROMs all day.
[EVO 4G General] parmend:
I had a 3d and its a great phone . It's a upgrade from the og EVO I don't care what anybody says . It's faster , screen is better . The only thing that sucks is the camera . All the 3d needs is a good aosp Rom and it will fly . And its about to get sense 3.6 I believe . I wouldn't upgrade to it but if it was a replacement phone I would take it in a heartbeat.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
The evo 3d isn't bad works fine camera is fine also .. Should check out the pics thread in the evo 3d general section if you wanna see how well it takes shots..

As for the 3D not a fan of it... But software spec wise phone is pretty smooth..

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1416547 Look through this.
[EVO 4G General] jrollercoasters:
That helps a lot thanks man
[EVO 4G General] Rakeesh_j:
I've had the Evo 3D for a while myself and...it's nothing special. In some respects its a downgrade because you'll probably never see a fully functioning AOSP rom for it.

It's got great hardware for sure, but in all honesty I've never seen any speed benefit of having the 3D over the OG evo in any app.
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
I had it too...I'm back on my OG because I dropped my 3VO and broke it...it is just OK... It is obviously an upgrade from this phone and I def notice the lag on the og ..... but the 3d aspect gets old quickly... I wouldn't bother with it at this point, with it being nearly a year old.... devs have a hard time with it due to the 3d camera, don't get me wrong, they work their asses off, not digging on them...

On the plus side, if you get stuck w hboot 1.5 you and had to use HTC to unlock your phone you can now downgrade to 1.4 so you can also have s-off... but as of right now the process has not been stream lined....again, no dig, that was a major accomplishment!

My charger port on the OG is kinda flakey, I wonder if they would fix it or give me a 3d for it? I would take it as a replacement but if I was upgrading then no thanks...

Bottom line.... I would wait for the LTE phones.... fwiw
[EVO 4G General] jrollercoasters:
It's not a for sure thing tho man about getting it you might just get another og and I'm for sure waiting for the LTE I can't wait! The only problem is my upgrade is next year, I feel like I'm gunna be left here all by myself, because everyone will be up graded :/
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
I'm not super worried about it, I'm due for an upgrade on June 1 and I have two extra batteries for this phone so I don't really even need my charging port...I'm already rooted w s off and I always have a full battery....and it is running nice w the latest cm7 and launcher pro...
[EVO 4G General] UCChemE05:
Can you compare the reception of the EVO, ET4G, MoPho and 3d? I live in an area with spotty coverage so a phone with good reception is very important.

Thanks.
[EVO 4G General] -EViL-KoNCEPTz-:
I get about the same reception on all of them I dont have the 3d anymore it was returned foe.the photon. the photon gets the best signal of all of them it will get signal where it would normally be blocked like in an elevator but in typical area reception is similar. If you go by bars the photon would appear to have the highest signal but when comparing dbm they are with in 1-3dbm of each other in the same area
[EVO 4G General] tkirton:
I have both. My one gripe about the Evo 3D is that the speaker simply isn't loud enough, even at full volume. Many times, I have issues hearing the phone if there is noise (such as a TV) in the room, where I don't have that issue with the Evo 4G.

Other than that, it's okay.
[EVO 4G General] Keion:
What? Stock, I think the speaker sucks but I'm on ZR3D rom and I can hear the speaker in a crowd of 30, loudly chatting people.
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
You can also increase the speaker volume with cdma workshop
[EVO 4G General] mildlydisturbed:
I own both, ignore the camera reports, it's just the stupid software. You can get a myriad of better camera software without rooting that stops the blur. With rooting you can get some greatness.

Quadrants for an OG are around 1000-1200, for the 3D around 4000. In real life, it seems to go roughly 3 times faster on some things.

It's a significantly better phone, but it's not as much better as the OG was over anything before...

Dual core, GPU rendering, beats-based ROMs, it's the 4G on crack. Battery life depends entirely on where you live. Never buy that whole "it's got great battery life" - yeah, sure it does, when you've got 5 bars and few other smartphones around yelling taking up your bandwidth.

Stock battery, I can get 14 hours with my usage on moderate at home, or 6 hours downtown. the 4G was 10 and 4.5. The batteries are different though - 1200 vs 1500.

Anyway, 3D better phone, but not a reason to ditch the EVO 4G. The LTE might be a reason, but I don't know yet
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
If your rooted you can get a 1day on battery moderate use. Display brightness turned down some and your set.

Don't forget about underclocking a bit, and my favorite, undervolting [if kernel is able].
[EVO 4G General] Cuppeerr:
they started replacing them with 3d's a while ago. I broke my evo in october and they replaced it with the evo 3d. Here's my thread haha http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1318308 Honestly it's a really nice phone. It's a very noticeable difference in performance and in a good way. So far the only bad thing is no 4g and 3d in aosp, which isnt that bad at all. Other than that it's really amazing. Ill be selling mine soon though to get the 4g lte:D

Also, Chad's kernels make it sooooo amazing, it's ridiculous:D
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
I am due for a full upgrade in June...perhaps I could get another 3d for my broken charging port on my OG....obv I would get more for selling the 3d than the OG ...
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
That works to :D I been using stock kernel with no bloat and been enjoying things.

[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
About the same lol I think is funny how you can sell the OG for 150$ and the 3d for 200$ lmao
[EVO 4G General] tkirton:
Then you must have gotten a better phone than I did. I wouldn't be able to hear my phone very well with 30 loud chatting people.

Now the 4G...very much so. Probably could hear it at a monster truck event (maybe...never tried it).

---------- Post added at 11:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 11:15 PM ----------

I think I tried that and it didn't make much difference...but I'll try it again (maybe set the wrong values).
[EVO 4G General] cas8180:
Most of the people's complaint here really only pertain to a fully stock device. And a stock device really does .it take advantage of the hardware in this phone in many different ways. If you want to see what the 3d can really do and how well it does perform install meanrom give the ROM a test spin. It gives amazing battery life and removes the underclocking done by HTC back up to 1.51ghz and the amaze camera port is sick. It gives new life to camera and also reduces shutter lag significantly.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Tho overclocking does eat more battery. No way around it... That rom is a good one tho for the EVO 3D . Nice theme layout .

Sent from the REAPER..
[EVO 4G General] cas8180:
Actually the stock CPU is underclocked. So the new kernel just removes the underclocked settings and sets it back to factory at 1.51ghz using the same voltage settings for stock so there is no increase in power consumption. In fact they have tweaked the sleep/idle threasholds to reduce power consumption that you actually do get longer battery life expecially thoughout the day. For example I charge mine up every day. And when I go to bed I actually leave it off the charger I wake up after 8 hours of sleep to see only a 5% draw from the battery leaving me at 95% for the rest of the day. This is amazing!

The thing is i tried sim card adapter and i just

Couldn't get it out, it got stuck pretty badly,somehow I got it out but with it together out flew the gold teeth that apparently read your sim,result is my phone doesnt read any sim card,sad day for me,well atleast ihave iphone 4s as my second phone,morale is sim adapters arent user friendly for g note
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] alias_neo:
My Gnote came with a microsim adapter in the box. If that sim adapter did the damage you should be set for a warranty claim.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] LordManhattan:
Never ever use a MicroSim adapter in the Note. It will break the pins. I've read about a lot of people experiencing the same as you.

Next time; dont.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kawgirlval69:
yes the sim adapters are not a good idea... i recommend if you need to use one find someone with a sim cutter and place the sim back in the outer sim when using it in the note but still be very careful.... if it shows the least bit of resistance, just slide a thin piece of stiff plastic under the sim(make sure its cut to the sim size) and ease out the sim... the reason this keeps happening is the type of sim reader samsung used. the tips of the "prongs" arent rounded over where when a sim is inserted they hang below the tray. these have an edge that catches. its just not designed for micro adapters..especially the cheap ones that are a hair thicker than a sim.... the best way ive found is my sim cutter trick...

hope this helps.... and btw i can fix the broken sim reader too and do it quite well, so if interested pm me...

I had that happen to my gs2 and Samsung will not repair it. They will tell you that your phone is beyond economical repair. That is how I ended up buying the note.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dzhankijs:
So basically if i dont trust any of my local repair shop ability to fix it and not to damage it even more, i should sell it? That would suck badly,coz i love this phone
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] chadrick.7:
The only problem is when it lifted the gold connectors it also damaged the motherboard. I hate to be the bearer of bad news but I have been down this road about 2 months ago. No local repair store would fix my gs2 because of the motherboard.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] dzhankijs:
Did you sell your sgs2? Or because of the problem it was pointless it to give away much cheaper than keeping it as multimedia device?

---------- Post added at 08:48 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:43 PM ----------

just go get a new sim... they are free for most carriers in america... if you pressure them they usually give it for free.. and its not a design flaw if it didnt come with a microsim... the flaw is the sim adapters being cheaply made and people not understanding that if it doesnt come out very easy then stop pulling before you cause damage

and a BIG THANK YOU TO JIMMBOMB!

I managed to remove my micro-sim, with no problems, it`s an official O2 adapter does that make a difference, anyway i use the O2 online sim transfer feature to move my number to an standard size sim-card, and it works fine in my Note :)

Would be nice if Samsung could include a slip of paper with a note saying not to use them.
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] kawgirlval69:
why? it is not samsung's fault people use micro sims. they use them themselves in some phones, but if they like any other manufacturer, if they put in a full size sim tray thats what they mean to be used in it, a full size sim... if you use something else its use at your own risk. and again its also the quality of the adapter. the cheapos are thicker than a sim so they hang easily. a good one will be almost seamless. im not knocking on you , im just telling you how the industry (not just samsung) feels about this. whether its right or wrong its how it goes and why warranties get voided...
[Galaxy Note GT-N7000 General] eagleis:
I've been switching sims (Regular sim and microsim with adapter) and haven't had any problems. However, NEVER EVER put the adapter by itself without the microsim. The pins are kinda spring loaded and will trap your sim adapter in.

If you are careful and don't force things you should be just fine. If it's kinda stuck, make sure you push down on the sim as you gently pull it out.
