I just love how the IPHONE plays 3D videos without the glasses. You can load so many movies on the SD card on the IPHONE.

Isn't it great to play 3D games on the IPHONE. You can load so many 3D games on the IPHONE's SD card.

And the camera. Taking pictures in 3D with the IPHONE's dual lenses is fantastic. Again you load so many on the IPHONE's SD card.

How about when your battery runs really low on the IPHONE? Isn't it great how you can pop in spare fully charged battery and keep going.

Why the features don't even compare with the EVO 3D.

****Its like comparing apples to oranges. The two phone were made for two completely different markets.

******I think we should start a new I hate IPHONE thread every week. EH?

meh i'll never like an ios device no matter what the specs. ipad has taught me that. 2/3 of my apps crash when opened (no fc message, of course. no wiping data without a backup in itunes then delete app then restore backup which takes hours. oh wait that keeps data never mind no wiping data without losing the app). locked down to default browser and keyboard (yes, installable browsers, but they don't open with email links and such). nothing to like except being able to pull down notification bar in full-screen apps. that's the only good part.

I think some of the losers in this thread need to get a life and stop worrying so much about apple. Seriously, do some of you not realise that you come across as such sad twats spewing your fanboy nonsense all over this thread.

The simple fact is that most people couldn't give two ****s about the features of android and custom roms, processing power, etc. They want a simple easy phone and that is exactly what the iPhone is. Do you think the majority of people wanna sit around all day flashing roms and tweaking things to make it work properly? They also don't want a wide and massive screen and would prefer a small screen. Siri is also very good and the camera on the 4s runs circles around the **** 2d camera of the EVO 3d.

Just for the record, I personally wouldn't get an iPhone because of the price, non removable battery, screen size and lack of sd slot as well as prefering the customization of android over ios. But the difference is that I take other peoples oppinions into account and I'm not some fanboy twat waving the flag around and shouting everyone down. Apple fanboys are just as bad as some of you lot.

So seriously, some of you really need to get a life.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Every single one of these threads ALWAYS goes the same exact way. The name calling "fanboys" and the flaming starts. "Your immature" "I don't care what ..... blah blah blah" "Grow up" "My phone is better than your phone" ETC.

Truth is XDA does not list any Apple products in its devices. There are Apple / Iphone forums to go to. Its not here.

If you start a thread about the Iphone, it never leads to anything good. Just wasted space on XDA's servers.
[HTC EVO 3D] fade2black101:
Was just hilarious reading some of the replies in this thread, so I wanted to put my point of view across. It's quite pathetic that grown men act like this. (unless of course, they're kids)
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Maybe you guys would enjoy some decent mature writing on the subject since most of you act as though you are children wearing blinders and frothing at the mouth whenever an Apple product is discussed.

Do you even know how much better Androids voice recognition is?

Download dragon go, or s voice. Hey look, just another thing Android did before the iphone and still does it better.

Besides, people really use that? Figured it was a bit of a gimmick.

But I have dragon go, and tried s voice.

Don't use it, maybe it's just not my forte.
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
Funny it looks like xda thinks apple is important....http://forum.iphone-developers.com/
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Interesting, I did not know this.

Also interesting is there is less than 50 people on it -- combined all threads.

I don't know how to tell how many are viewing HTC Evo 3D threads.

update: what I was referring to is, if you go to the top of this page, to the drop down box where it says "devices by OS or manufacturer" -- you won't see any apple devices listed.

This forum and all threads are for the EVO 3D. That's all I was trying to say. I did not mean to imply that XDA was anti Iphone or anything.

also, you could go onto any one of these forums for any Android, Windows Mobile, HTC devices and start the same thread Iphone vs. HTC One X or whatever and you will get very similar comments from everyone.

Really I was trying to say is that no good ever comes from this type of comparisons to the Iphone.

I'll start a new one next called " Who Hates the Iphone?"
[HTC EVO 3D] youdug:
nobody is obviously going to that site. nobody even caught the word "development" spelled incorrectly
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
that may be true, but the people that allow us to vent here have enough respect for apple people that they give them a site. Would it be too much to ask that we give them a little respect also? Or are those that run this place,in your opinion, sheep also?
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Siri has been constantly better at recognition and integration than Android. I've been comparing the many android voice recognition apps with my girlfriend's 4S, and nothing comes close.
[HTC EVO 3D] youdug:
uhh.... it was a joke? i was just pointing it out. i dont think anyone who has an iphone is a sheep, or the people who run this place. sorry for getting you all butthurt :rolleyes:

steve wozniak even said he wished his iphones voice recognition was as good as his android. i believe you, just pointing out what he said.

"Woz says voice commands work better on Android. Android’s built-in navigation system, where the phone acts like a GPS system, is another advantage, he says."

[HTC EVO 3D] edufur:
When you talk to an HONEST iPhone user... you will find that the iPhones suffer the same plagues any other phone suffers. Lockups, slowness, glitches, etc. So there really is nothing better about the iPhone. They just have a following of sheep who want their coach purse. All they are is a bunch of Stockholm victims.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Yeah, a joke that's getting really, really goddamn old.

Woz says many things. Chiefly, Woz is an Android fanboy and has no real attachment to the company he once built. Frankly, I don't need anyone else telling me something I've observed over the past 3 weeks nonstop. The ability to speak normally to a phone and not sound like I'm issuing commands to an irritating automated phone support line is a huge deal, and with Android, it's just not there.

I wasn't even trying to use it deliberately. I told it key things and it did them. I told it "wake me up in 40 minutes", "text Eric and tell him I won't be making it", and "will it rain later today", and it flawlessly answered/acted upon what I said. My Evo 3D? It didn't know how to handle "wake me up". That's what we're talking about when we say that iOS is meant for the masses, because for what people want, it works, and it works well.

How do you figure? I've talked to enough of them (iPhone users) who agree. I guess you must have some ax to grind today? And your fanboyness is showing... wear a longer skirt.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Ok, I've been trying to get a read on you for a little while now. Let me say first that I respect that you are a recognized developer by XDA, that is cool. You took it seriously at some point in your life, learned it and used your knowledge to develop and help others for whatever reason.

I respect that and can get behind it 100%.

However, you seem to have an unhealthy obsession with anyone saying anything bad about the Iphone. The new Iphone development section needs developers I'm sure. They could use your talents there.

You seem rather opposed to Android and the EVO 3D. Unsettling so.

Seems you turn an Iphone bashing into an Android / HTC bashing session. I find it rather disturbing. You will flame anyone who disagrees with you. The reason I find it disturbing is, we all come here for a common goal. To make the HTC EVO 3D the best it can be.

We all like to learn. Apply what we learn. Once we know, help others do the same. At least that's the way it should be.

After all, it is JUST a phone. Many more models will come and go. In the grand scheme of things it really does not matter.

As phones progress and come and go, people may not remember which phone and what comment it was, but they will remember getting flamed by LiquidSolstice and left a bad taste in their life.

Whatever problems you have with HTC, I say let it go. Its just a phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] zcink:
Funny lol. Made me laugh.
[HTC EVO 3D] ncfastls1:
Personally I just think iOS is very boring compared to Android. Less features, less customization, no widgets, no app drawer. It's just a lot less flexible. I have an iPad that I got as a graduation present and while I love the screen, build quality, and browsing the web with it, that's about it. I just jailbreak'd (jailbroke?) it the other day and honestly I didn't even know what to do with it. A lot of the apps costed money and while there were a few things I was interested in tweaking, you really can't do much of anything compared to rooting an Android phone.

When I went to buy my first smart phone, it was between the Evo 4G and iPhone 4. I had actually managed to put my Apple hatred aside (which has only grown into a further hate since all of their patent trolling) and acknowledged that it was actually a good phone. It was nice and everything, but as soon as I turned the screen of the Evo 4G on I was sold. It was beautiful. The huge screen, widgets, live wallpapers, all of the settings, I was like a kid in a candy store. I immediately signed a contract for it.

Since then, I've only grown to love Android even more. Especially with everything I can do with root and custom roms. I mean seriously, things like the fact that we can overclock our phones like a computer and greatly improve sound quality (specifically chad's kernels) is just the coolest thing to me. My Evo 3D is super smooth, and sometimes faster than my iPad as far as opening apps. It loses in browser performance but still, for me it's more than good enough. And to be honest, I have experienced just as many if not more app crashes in iOS compared to Android.

I'm just really not a fan of Apple's tactics towards competitors and their walled garden approach at an operating system.
[HTC EVO 3D] unCoRrUpTeD:
Why choose iPhone..

Popular, main stream, easy, accessories,

Why choose android...

Cheaper, carriers, screen size, widgets, UI, customization

Do you know that android phones and tablets outsell iPad and iPhone? Obviously android is more popular.

Just the other day my boss tried to answer his iPhone and it took a good 5 seconds for the phone to recognize what he wanted. He was looking at his phone and kepting hitting the screen trying to get it to answer. So they experience some of the same problems we do.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
THIS is the stuff I love to see. Pure, experience based, logical, and rational criticism. He did not make any attack against iPhone users, he talked in a mature and respectful way how he came to the decision he did.

Is this really too much to ask of you people? To not sound like raving 10 year olds comparing their GameCubes and PS2s that their mothers bought them? I'd assume we're all adults here, and those of us aren't are looking to the rest of us to try and see how they should act.

Set the example. Be rational. Don't change your opinion, think about where that opinion comes from, and give us some logical and well-thought reasoning behind your choice.

That is what we benefit from. That is the power of community. Not to circle-jerk each other, but to learn new opinions, fresh ideas, and to enjoy where the world has come and quickly it's gotten there as far as smartphone technology goes.
[HTC EVO 3D] moregothic:
well there is one thing nobody can take apple away. Before android, they built the first smartphone which could be used by people with limited technical skills and/or enthusiasm for gadgets of that kind. I myself changed back from a windows mobile 5.0 "smart"phone to a basic feature phone because it pissed me of (and I do IT support and training). my technophobic gf got my old 3g when I replaced it with an android device, and migration did not even hurt in opposite to any new feature phones before.

iOS did not really piss me off, except iTunes, but the main reason for me to change to android was that an android device that could match up with an iphone4 was just about half the money.

You are right. However the op is a troll. How do I know?

[HTC EVO 3D] Riff76:
What iOS does, it does perfectly, and thats cause its done the same thing for its entire existence. Yes Android lags but ICS helps. What helps even more is the Qualcomm S4, man you guys are missing out on the EVO LTE.

It will be interesting to see what iphone 5/iOS 6 have coming, because HTC finally nailed it, I would be surprised if HTC didn't double their sales numbers from last year.

[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
There is a difference in making an opinionated statement and being a troll. People toss that word around all too often thinking they know what it means, but they really don't.

"Trolling" would be saying something like "gg guys, got an iPhone, ur Android SUX LOLOLOL" and then leaving the thread and watching the ****storm commence. That's called trolling.

Am I to go around knocking every user on this forum when on their favorite ROM's thread they say "it's been smooth and perfect and no issues at all"? Would that be acceptable?

Oh wait. It's Android. We're supposed to give Android a free pass on any of it's issues, because obviously we Android users are not like the hipster douchebaggy iPhone users.

Your hypocrisy is mindblowing, but then again, seeing as XDA has turned into a haven for little immature children to come and "pimp their phone" I suppose such fascist-style comments about Android aren't all that surprising...
[HTC EVO 3D] hungry81:
Trolls are not always that obvious. Also why get so defensive? Why jump all over someone who states generic bs about android and then ignore or defend it when someone does the same for apple? Apple is not flawless and many people do not like their products. I for one dislike their simple and dishonest marketing history as well as their products which so far have not impressed me. That's just life.
[HTC EVO 3D] Robert542:
I have an Evo 3D for my personal and an iPhone 4s for my company phone. I find myself using my Evo for work related stuff more than the iPhone. I didn't want the iPhone when they gave it to me but it was a free phone so why not give it a chance. After about a month I can't stand to use it for anything other than checking my email and thats only because I already have 3 other email accounts synced to my evo. I dont need another drain on my battery. IMO the iPhone 4s can't compete with my Evo 3D.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
You're right, they're not, so we shouldn't jumping to the conclusion that anyone who says something you don't agree with is a "troll". When he says he had a flawless experience, it means just that, he had a flawless experience. He's not trying to sell you the iPhone. Jesus.

Ignore/Defend what? Where have I said anything good about Apple devices? This is the problem, everyone is acting like a child and assuming that I'm "taking sides", when all I ask for is retarded posts like "iPhone is for douchebag/hipster" to be reconsidered?

Let me really upfront and frank about this because it seems to be a difficult concept for many people to grasp as apparent by the many people who keep telling me I'm "taking this too seriously". Hate the iPhone. Please do, by all means. I don't give two ****s whether you like Android, hate the iPhone, love walruses, whatever. Just be mature about your opinion. Want an example as to what is not mature? Because it's so difficult to discern what is and what is not?

This is not a mature post.

This is not a mature post either.

This is an absolutely retarded post.

Want more? I can find millions of them. It's this sort of **** that makes Android users look like elitist pieces of ****, and I for one am not going to be associated with it. We can have differing opinions, no one ever asked you not to, but for ****'s sake, would it be too much to try and at least act like we're all older than 14?

And that's fine! That's a perfect example of a logical, rational, and non-insulting opinion based on your own experience. Is it really such a huge deal to at least expect the same from others who share your opinion?

All, Getting really tired of the un-installable carrier bloatware, apps like Facebook that that never close and not required etc. Before my DHD I used to re-flash my HTC Touch Pro weekly, but it seems the process isn't quite so simple nowadays.

Now please, before I say another word, do not flame me. I am not writing this request for help to be lazy, I've been reading various how-to's all afternoon and there is so much information to assimilate and what if variables, command shells etc I am scared to death of missing something or mis-understanding. Especially around issues if I've done OTA upgrades from Froyo to Gingerbread, which I have.

So please community, sincerely, could someone offer a few tips to cover my back so I'm not back here again tomorrow nursing a bricked handset :)

Here is my current software info :

Orange UK Stock

Android 2.3.5

Sense 3.0

Software 3.13.61.5

Kernal 2.6.35.10-g931a37e

htc-kernal@and18-2 #1

Wed Nov 9 14:04:03 CST 2011

Baseband 12.65.60.29U_26.14.04.28_M

Build 3.13.61.5 CL228058 release-keys

Browser Webkit/533.1

The phone itself has Orange hardware branding as do all Orange UK sourced handsets. If I remember correctly the phone shipped with Orange stock Froyo, then an OTA patch, then major update to Gingerbread and then an OTA GPS patch. Whether there were any anti-exploit bootloader fixes tucked in there I do not know.

Have I followed things correctly - that the Advanced Hack Kit will cover all angles and take care of this for me without downgrading etc? Is this correct? Any gotcha's or additonal process steps?

Thank you very much!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Hexgore:
Personally I recommend using the HTC Dev official bootloader unlock, it'll give you an open bootloader and you can go right ahead and root your stock ROM or flash any custom DHD ROM you like. It's quite an easy process but you might need to update your HBOOT and HTC's process for that requires Windows, everything else can be done on OS X or Linux as well though (not sure what OS you use, just covering all the angles).

Edit: forgot I was in the DHD forums, bootloader unlocking has limitations, ignore this if you want to use ported ROMs etc, sorry!
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] jaycee331:
Thanks anyway Hexgore.

Well my patience (or lack of) got the better of me so I went ahead and let AAHK do its stuff. What an awesome tool. Followed the instructions to the letter and it worked beautifully, including the auto-downgrade process which I was kind of dreading.

So anyone else on the same stock, go right ahead and I hope it goes as smoothly as mine. IceColdSandwich here I come :D
[Desire HD Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] GuyInTheCorner:
I agree AAHK is a brilliant piece of well written piece of code that many people will find useful or have found useful. Personally I think its the easiest way to root and S-OFF for the device. Flash CM7, install SetCPU, install the ICS theme for CM7 and you have perfection! Runs like butter down your chin on my UNDERCLOCKED DHD
