[EVO 4G General] Pivo187:
Right I understand..Did they finally move the SD card location to the outside and not behind the damn battery...I hated that about the evo...When is the phone due to be out?
[EVO 4G General] ironromulas:
Wondering how long I can keep it going. If it could rum ics like sense 1.0 it would hold it own. The devs are working hard. Hats off for the efforts. So funny I will run a rom with broken features when it is perfectly capable but yet we press forward for something better. Nothing wrong with that.

Come on little evo...

Come on devs...

And thank you for your hard work.

Next flash? OK...
[EVO 4G General] id_twin:
The speculation is that the phone will release on May 18th with pre-orders receiving them (possibly) early. And yes, the phone's micro-sd slot is no longer behind the battery, in fact, you will likely never see the battery ever unless you decide to take your's apart.
[EVO 4G General] scottspa74:
Yes. No need to worry. Get it. Now. It's in all our best interest. Do it.

sent from 2yr old Evo on ICS
[EVO 4G General] AJilka89:
With Sense 4.0 and ICS in general, battery life should be amazing compared to our OG Evo. If I were you, wait a couple of months to see results of how battery life is from real world experience. People with the One X with the Quad core are reporting great battery life and their phones have a smaller battery (1800 mAh). The new Evo has a SoC, 28nm chip which will help wasting precious battery life and generate less heat, as well as its larger battery. Overall it seems to be a great phone with enough new quirks to help many upgrade from the OG for a better experience.

One thing that no one talks about is that at some point were expected to be able to ROAM on someones LTE network. (Most likely Verizon) We don't have that now because nobody is running WiMAX except Sprint. Good article about it on goodandevo.net
[EVO 4G General] Pivo187:
Roam to verizons network?? How is that possible if EVO does not use SIM card...I thought to get on another carriers network you need their sim card...I almost jumped the gun due to the low price offered at wirefly..But after the promises of 4g on the first EVO never coming to light for me I Have decided to wait & see...My current evo does everything I need. Only gripe is the 4g that sprint promised which makes me think the same will happen with 4glite....Ive tried a razor max on verizons 4glte & it leaves sprint in the dust....Also, if the lte network is not up & working when the EVO lte is released & the evo lte has no working wimax then what network are you supposed to connect too? Sounds eerily similar to the EVO 4g launch
[EVO 4G General] AJilka89:
Verizon and Sprint phones, to the best of my knowledge stopped using SIM cards awhile ago. Sprint allows us to roam on Verizon when there's no Sprint coverage because Sprint signed a roaming agreement to use Verizon.

How were going to roam, I'm not 100% sure but I'm sure we will find out soon.

goodandevo.net/2012/03/here-is-sprints-future-lte-coverage-cap.html

Edit: this would be for the new EVO LTE, not the previous WiMAX versions. Just wanted to clarify.
[EVO 4G General] NaterTots:
You won't be able to roam as sprints lte is at 1900mhz and Verizon is something totally different.

Should be a beast of a phone though. Lte is already live in a few cities and the LG viper lte is already out along with a Samsung lte phone.
[EVO 4G General] AJilka89:
That's true but one can hope lol. But don't forget that Sprint is shutting down Nextels iDen network which will give us the 800 MHz frequency for better building penetration. At least we have that to look forward to in the future. I think Verizon is somewhere in the 700 MHz.

Maybe Sprint classifies some builder of LTE towers (sort of like ClearWire) are the future "roaming" areas that are the grey on the map from goodandevo.net?

Hey guys,

I'm looking for a replacement app switcher for Shostock 2. Where could I find one? Thanks!
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] jcracken:
What do you mean? A different multitasker or a launcher? If you need a new launcher, just use Nova/Apex/Trebuchet. For multitasker, you're stuck with the one it comes with.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Fusion777:
I think he means the task switcher. I second the vote, shostock 2's is usable but I like the native ICS one better.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] aanidaani:
Yeah, I'm looking for a new task switcher. Shoman switched it in a recent release and I prefer the old one...
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Contingency™:
The new task switcher is Sense Styled. Only way to change is to figure out how to mod it back yourself or revert back to a version of ShoStock2 that has it.

[HTC One S] Reviewers:
You can't extract baseband from a Nandroid you can only extract from the original RUU.

Plus you need S-OFF to flash em.

Its pretty useless to just get it.

Unless your on a stock OTA now its useless.

Hey guys, I have a Samsung galaxy gio using Cyanogenmod 9. And I must say it is quite snappy compared to gingerbread. I love the phone to death, but its jut not a really great phone. It is limited by ram, poor CPU and the screen size is just to small for my liking.

But today my friend asked me if I wanted to but his Xperia arc. He has a gold iPhone now. The kid goes through phones like crazy, so it probably didn't get used alot, so I'm sure it is in good shape.

He asked for 250, but I think I could get it for 200 - 225, but first I want to know:

1. Is it easy to root, mod, get CWM, flash roms, kernels etc. Unlocked boot loader?

2. Is that a reasonable price?

3. Is it a good phone with decent hardware? Like CPU speed ram, multitasking ability etc.

4. Is there a Cyanogenmod 9 available for it that gives me a ICS Xperience? (
[General Topics] luckymouse17:
gio won't receive ICS update (yeah until sams*ng 'realize' there were many its user wanted official release of ICS), if u have more budget you can consider buy Arc or another worth phone such as SGS3 :D:D
[General Topics] AlwaysDroid:
I wish it would get it. By there's not enough space in /system for touch wiz and ics. Which is sad because touchwiz is ugly.

Thanks for the response though! Anyone else?

Have you installed cwm from market then installed into phone.

What I mean is cwm has a 2 stage install 1 install app

2 open app and then click install on to phone.

The shut down menu will not show reboot option. you have to shut down then restart manually when you see sony logo press/spam the back button constantly until cwn loads, if this not work try using down volume button again spam/ pressing continually

[Galaxy S III General] megagodx:
... More so because all these big tech blog sites always opine on something as personally preferential as the build quality and design and almost pass it off as a "fact" and then you see other sheeps complaining about the same issues most of the time, based off what they read; simply because most people aren't capable of thinking for themself, and like typical consumers, they just get fed what others tell them.

I, for one, have liked the designs and the build qualities of the Galaxy S II and the Galaxy S III over that of the bland and dull looking iPhone and HTC One X. That's just my personal opinion, but what I don't understand is the constant complaints about the build quality.

iPhone has always been praised for its "premium feel" - but really, what are you getting in actuality? The Cheap glass+steel composition that is a shatter magnet? The plastic body on the Galaxy S series is not only in my opinion, superior, in terms of aesthetics, but it's also so much more durable and managable without any sort of expensive casing to protect these more sensitive "premium" builds.

I even see some of the cons of the Galaxy S lines by some people or tech sites being something as subjective in actuality, as design and build quality. It's just downright annoying and I think people should find more legitimate gripes.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
Op you're wrong. It's not cause the tech sites have said that they don't like the design that everyone else doesn't, its cause they expected something newer, more original. I like the design of the S3 and already preordered mine, but I would be lying if I say that I didn't expect the design to be more slick like the HOX. Still I'm liking it more everyday but as the most anticipated android device EVER, people were expectating something more original and a phone's looks matters a lot. The HOX has so many issues, horrible battery life, screen flickering, sense crashing and reloading... And yet I still wanna buy that phone just because it is a thing of beauty. I saw it for the first time yesterday and I personally think it is the most beautiful phone ever made HANDS DOWN. If only the S3 had a better looking body, all the people saying that the S3 is a disappointment wouldnt complain as much. But again I like the s3 design more and more but as the flagship Samsung phone you can't knock people for expecting something better looking.
[Galaxy S III General] nebsif:
IMO, HOX looks way better, albeit a bit skate-board'ish (took a while to find the right word) but I aint buying phones for the looks (like my bro who regrets it with sensation).

Build quality and design are 2 different things btw, and HTC's build quality is derp.. they use fancy materials but there are nuff examples of bad-glued screens, light leaks, yellow spots or w/e with 1x and chipping with 1s and it's uber fancy hyped satellite NASA aluminum.
[Galaxy S III General] abhijit1289:
Yeah, well say that to my gs2 owning friend whose phone *creaked* after two weeks of usage.
[Galaxy S III General] SlimJ87D:
What about my friend who broke her HTC Incredible's screen 2 times already? See I can do that too. It goes both ways.
[Galaxy S III General] megagodx:
I am not wrong, I'm merely stating my opinion and I made that clear numerous times. You're trying to overshadow my point as invalid to yours or a few others who mirror your sentiment based on some sort of construct that what you feel personally goes. That's sort of the indulgent mind frame we have nowadays.

I could go as far as to say that I'm right and you're wrong based on the same logical thought process you're using.

No phone is indestructible. But you put it up to comparison to the iPhone per se, I'm sure it would have incurred damage far greater and in less the time; it sounds as if your friend is a bit reckless with his gadgets. I've dropped my Galaxy S II various times without a case and at worst, I got a few negligible nicks on the side of the phone, but the screen has never gotten any gashes or cracks.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
You're too angry, take a chill pill. This is what you said ...

"More so because all these big tech blog sites always opine on something as personally preferential as the build quality and design and almost pass it off as a "fact" and then you see other sheeps complaining about the same issues most of the time, based off what they read; simply because most people aren't capable of thinking for themself, and like typical consumers, they just get fed what others tell them...".

what makes you think that everyone else is sheep and it isn't their opinion? Just because most people have the same feeling means their sheeps? And you think you're right about it? If you go to the Galaxy s2 I9100, many users are not satisfied with the new look of the S3 and you would think they should be satisfied since their coming from the Galaxy S2. It proves that theyre not just following what engadget or androidcentral or whatever tech site is saying, they really think it is a disappointment. I see where they coming from. But personally I'm liking it that's why I preordered it and already paid for it. You being mad and saying that everyone is a sheep and following what the tech sites are saying is just silly.
[Galaxy S III General] boodies:
I actually agree somewhat with the OP in that tech blogs do sway peoples opinions even if it's a little. Along with the massive amounts of Hype unseen in any mobile device it's a surprise it's not shot down even more lol.

I personally think it's a freakin beautiful phone. Which is good cause thats all that matters to me.

I really hope this thing does not come with the S4 on T-Mo
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
The Verge is right. Samsung has the resources to make the most unique and exclusive design ever but the SIII is very generic looking. It's not ugly but it is generic. I would not mind carrying it around but they could have done a lot better.
[Galaxy S III General] barondebxl:
I couldn't agree more, you're absolutely right. It is like Samsung made a " safe" bet on the design. They definitely could have done better.
[Galaxy S III General] megagodx:
I would love to know what this "unique" phone looks like. Most encompass the very typical form. What you consider generic, others consider to be justright. Some time too much deviating isn't always a good thing.

Again, it goes back to my point, if legitimate users want to have a bone to pick with the form, that's their own personal experiences, legitimized by the fancy of that particular user. We're all abstract with our preferences. To have some blog site slamming a particular device based on perception materialistic reason is still a bad way to present a phone to readers.
[Galaxy S III General] Arcadia310:
Just look at the thousands of concept renders for phones released each year by artists. With a little imagination and creativity, anything is possible.
[Galaxy S III General] Gnarfsan:
If you see an HTC phone for the first time, even from a distance, you immediately know who made it because they all have some distinct design features. With this phone, I can't think of anything that makes it stand out from the crowd and screams Samsung. You have to check the brand on it to know. It lacks distinct design features which I my self and a lot of reviewers find disappointing. But you may not. Thats how it works.
[Galaxy S III General] clouds5:
For me it couldnt look any better basically :) It's like a big iphone 3gs, no rectangulars, no nasty edges. Its sexy and i'm pretty sure it will lie good in the hand.

And i think high quality plastic is a good choice. It doesnt block signals like most forms of metal, its lightweight, it can be easily colored, it doesnt brake as easily as other materials. Only negative people always bring up is "it feels cheap".

Of course it does matter how something feels to you, but i'd rather have a cheap feeling than signal problems because of full aluminum backs^^
[Galaxy S III General] harise100:
I fully agree with the thread title, since I don't care much about the design although I like the looks of the S3.

The thing that really pisses me off is, that there isn't just one or two threads discussing the design. No, in allmost every thread be it about the display, the cpu, connectivity, sound,... if the people run ot of arguments why their beloved phone <insert name here> is so much better than the S3, they fall back to "but it's so ugly" :eek:
[Galaxy S III General] v1rtu4l:
yeah, because the artists actually first off "know ****" about what is actually manufacturable (think of the teardrop shaped iPhone renders) and secondly do the artist never bother to think if that design is actually copyrighted or patented by another company.

as the androidpolice article stated: the design of the galaxy s3 may be only the way it is, because someone allowed apple to actually patent a touchscreen phone design which was already in place before apple first used it and would be a sensible choice to built on on.

to quote the infringement claims by apple:

so you see that not using these attributes in a phone does very much restrict the available designs.

it is not samsungs fault that they wanna play fair now.

it is the fault of the patent institution that apple was able to patent such things in the first place.

others like HTC have more freedom in their design choice because apple does not feel threatened by them. You can bet that apple would have sued HTC to their last dollar, if HTC actually would be threat to apple, but since they are not apple just does not care for the moment.

i personaly like the design of the galaxy s3 and am just withholding because i wanna see some more thorouh reviews of it.
