[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
It's a great phone at $100 off craigslist if you are already on sprint or can flash it somehow for another carrier. To pay $300 for it would be an incredible waste of money. Sprints wimax is worthless if you are moving and only ok if you are not. If your house is right next to a wimax tower you might be ok. I thought it has been said it has a few problems out of the box with sprints\virgins version of ics so be ready to flash\root it right away to make it work better. A lot of work for a $300 phone. The 3d part is really just a gimmick, kind of a add-on for the kiddies. These are the realities of this phone.http://voices.yahoo.com/3d-devices-smartphones-causing-headaches-eye-8858717.html

I love my Evo 3D now with ICS, but I wouldn't buy a new one now. Phones get old fast, your best bet is to buy the latest and greatest and it may last 2 years.
[HTC EVO 3D] sailio:
Buy it new for like $100 flash it to virgin. Its $300 cuz your not signing a contract. I'm running meanrom ics and I get days of medium use with absolutely no lag or issues.

Everybody gets the latest and greatest because that's how manufactures control the market. I don't think any other phone for this price is even comparable.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigtuna00:
Those must be the magical unicorn Android phones... :)

I'm averaging 50% remaining charge after ~36 hours with everything enabled except 4G. You can get 2 days out of the EVO V easily with Harmonia 3 (a cleaned up stock ROM):

http://www.vmroms.com/index.php?topic=157.0

I can't report on stock battery performance because frankly I rooted and installed Harmonia 3 about an hour after I got the phone.

Of the smartphones I've owned (Palm Pre, EVO 4G, Optimus V, Optimus Slider) and used, the EVO V is by far the best all around. This phone with a no-contract Virgin plan is just about perfect (for me).

I suspect those reporting atrocious battery life are leaving 4G on.
[HTC EVO 3D] kc3:
There is a LOT of issues with flashing it to Virgin, he'd be better off flashing to Boost but regardless of which carrier it would involve cloning the MEID/ESN of a donor phone and I wouldn't suggest it unless you know a lot about phones and have a backup in case it takes you a while. It is worth it though even at $300, the specs are just as comparable to today's phones and over the time she would have the phone a couple of years it would have paid for itself several times in comparison to getting it on contract at a subsidized price. I would DEFINITELY suggest it, the phone's specs as I said are comparable to phones coming out today (even higher specs than some new phones) and whether or not it remains supported it'll still remain a good phone for a time to come.
[HTC EVO 3D] sailio:
Esn has nothing to do with flashing it to another carrier... Just firmware and pri. I work for radioshack so I deal with this on a daily basis
[HTC EVO 3D] snoopdog:
Not to hate on HTC... but I would wait for new galaxy to drop in price. I think that is going to be the best phone out this year and honestly you will be good for atleast 2 years.
[HTC EVO 3D] edufur:
Battery is amazing if you are using a MEAN rom. Otherwise, so/so. Also... I would say the biggest concern is the crappy hardware. You are taking a chance at having a blown earpiece or failing digitizer. These are common issues and I suffer from BOTH.
[HTC EVO 3D] kc3:
lol it does when the carrier doesn't allow flashing :P Work at radio shack? I've actually flashed phones so I know Boost Mobile and Virgin Mobile blocks MEIDs/ESNs that are not in their database. It's not like flashing to Cricket or Metro PCS because of this fact. You could flash to Boost or Virgin without changing it but you won't be able to put it on your account :P Go to Virgin or Boost and just try and activate an account with an ESN/MEID not in their database, it won't work and customer service won't do it either lol (nor will they add it)

The only and I mean *only* way to get a non virgin or boost phone working on a virgin or boost account is by flashing and changing the ESN/MEID.

Also, I HAAAAATE when people say "I work for Radio Shack" or "I work for Best Buy Mobile" or "I work for geek squad" and use it to say (hey I'm an expert) not to diss on any of these (in fact I'm sure a lot of them are very good), but the vast majority of people I know at these jobs know very little and only know what's part of their official training etc. Again not all of them but pleeeaaassseee don't be so sure in something you obviously don't have experience in and giving a user HORRIBLE advise in which they will likely regret it if they try and follow it :P In fact you probably shouldn't give advice on a subject unless you've tried it (which you obviously haven't lol)
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mremale:
Ok so after the AOKP hard brick debacle, what is the preferred method of Nandroid backup (if any) for ics roms or even just gingerbread roms. I am not messing with rom manager to backup my roms anymore. Someone said rom manager is taboo on this forum lol
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] slick_rick:
Odin/Mobile odin the el26 cwm kernel and backup your setup there. Once done, you can either just reflash the rom or flash a compatible kernel so it will boot.

If you ever want to restore, just odin/mobile the el26 cwm kernel, restore nandroid, then flash compatible kernel so it will boot.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] mremale:
So i can use this method to backup an ics rom? I would be using mobile odin pro. The EL26 kernel.
[Samsung Epic 4G Touch] patrao_n:
Yes. And you would also need the kernel for the rom. After you backup or restore you will still have the el26 kernel. So you would need to flash the kernel actually meant for your rom

lol SGP is selling otterbox?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] twoashj:
why is it so cheap for a commuter case? Is it for galaxy s3?
[Galaxy S III Accessories] SlimJ87D:
Commuter is not as strongly built and doesn't have a built in screen protector like the Defender.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tazer2death:
Commuter's usually come with a screen protector you can install though right? Mine always have.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] kulzboy:
yea but not built in like defender
[Galaxy S III Accessories] mocheesehead:
If anybody has used a commuter case on a phone before, how does it come off for battery changes? Is it a pain to get off?

Thanks in advance!
[Galaxy S III Accessories] twoashj:
What I meant was it's about $35 on Otterbox website, but this amazon link is selling it at a cheaper price. it doesn't look legit without someone's reply saying he has shopped there before. :P
[Galaxy S III Accessories] Tazer2death:
Pop off the plastic. Not really difficult but it is on there solid and has absolutely no chance of falling off ever. Then the rubber skin just comes right off as you would imagine a rubber skin would. Not super hard but it is a 2-step process for such a strong defensive case.

Took me all of 10 seconds to pop off the cover and the battery case on my current phone.
[Galaxy S III Accessories] wein8en:
You can find it cheaper with free shipping from Mobilecityonline.com, $24.99. I've ordered from them before and they are reputable.

[HTC Sensation] MattyEL:
Hey all,,,I have a tmo sensation and have opensensation currently installed....the thing doesnt want to connect to mobile data...keeps showing the H then disconnects and repeats. Just happened recently and has been working fine on official nightly builds.

been searching around and seen others with the same issue but havent seen a fix for it

apn is correct

anyone have any idea's?
[HTC Sensation] MattyEL:
Found an answer to this in another thread. Apparently its a problem with the audio routing fix in CM roms that causes data issues in some devices.

I flashed: http://d-h.st/RFY this and it data is back to normal.
[HTC Sensation] ebrand:
Did you flash that after wipe or over the top? I just wiped and flashed and am continuing to get the flashing data. Restoring back to Sense works and is an option, but the oddest thing for me was that this issue occurred like over night, without any installation on my part.
[HTC Sensation] MattyEL:
I actually flashed the superwipe.zip I had on my sd from a different rom I had installed then flashed that rom from the link and it worked great.

I think the superwipe was in the elegencia rom thread in development.
[HTC Sensation] ebrand:
gotcha, ARHD also has the Superwipe.zip Thanks for the tip.

I have been running cm7 through the RC versions. Very happy with it. The only bug I have noticed is that the phone does not return to the previous audio mode after a call. I have posted this to the Atrix Dev team site, but I am not certain that it has been received and acknowledged

The bug is: plug phone into dock play some audio (music, nav, etc over the 3.5 mm Jack on the dock.) Make or receive a phone call .after the call, all audio is over the speaker instead of the 3'5 mm Jack. What is the best way to report the bug

So after much tinkering

I managed to inject an emoji font into CM9

I am now able to see iphone peoples emojis (in black n white) in ALL apps

On the latest CM9 Nightly for Maguro

I would asume you can do this on ANY AOSP rom and its REALLY REALLY EASY!!

MODERATORS PLEASE LEAVE UP FOR .5-1 HOUR AND THEN I WILL REMOVE!

I recently flashed a rom and kernel combo that is now causeing my phone to reboot in to recovery constantly. I am able to flash rom and backups, but not able to actually boot into the rom.

I am able to flash different recoveries and go between them (twrp, cwm touch, rom racers cwm) but not able to boot into any firmware.

As soon as I plug my phone into a power source, it instantly boots into recovery as well, EVEN IF THAT BATTERY IS NOT IN THE PHONE!!!!!

I have never seen or heard of this before, and believe me I am looking everywhere, and am only to find threads regarding Samsung phones and odin procedures, which obviously wont help me.

Please don't hate me for posting here, I will remove very shortly. I just hope that some smart people in this community will see this, and give me some advice.

Feel free to PM me with any suggestions to keep this thread from sticking to top of subject board. I just really love my atrix and DONT want to have to attempt to send it in for repair :(

ANY HELPS IS GRACIOUSLY APPRECIATED!!!!!

Thanks guys!

If you have an international atrix, you could probably flash an sbf (non-AT&T), unlock and try to install a ROM again.

P.S. - Please take this advice with a grain of salt as this is all I can think of.
[Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Savant:
Try doing fast boot to delete the rom you're still currently on and try rebooting into recovery quickly and try flashing a different one. This is what happened to me before awhile ago or try restoring a back up after the fast boot wipe.

IIIIITTTT'S AAAALLLLIIIIIVVVVEEEE!!!! :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D :D

Thank you guys SOOOOOOOO much for the responses!!

Heres what went down!

I did all the necessary Fastboot wipes, EXCEPT ERASING RECOVERY, thinking that a good fastboot clense would solve my issues. NOPE!!! Kept rebooting back into recovery no matter what I tried. I did everything BUT erasing and re-flashing recovery (mainly because I wasn't entirely sure how to fastboot flash anything :S)

Eventually, I finally got the balls to man up and erase my recovery and attempt to re-install another using fastboot. So I installed cwm touch, reflashed my TWRP recovery because thast what I made all my backups with, restored one of my back ups, aaaannnnddd...…

BAM!!! BACK IN ACTION!!!!

I gotta thank you stevendeb, you were the only one to suggest the recovery erase, and sure enough thast all I had to do. Not that I don't HUUUGELY appreciate the suggestions from EVERYONE!!!!! You guys seriously rock!

Im pretty sure if I had just erased my recovery and re-installed right from the beginning, I would have been fine, even without the other fastboot wipes.

The weirdest part was that when I plugged my phone into the charger, it would instantly boot into recovery, EVEN WITHOUT THE BATTERY IN THE PHONE!!!!!

It was seriously freaking me out, lol.

Anyway, me and my Atrix are BACK!!!! lol

Thanks again everyone, cant tell you guys how much I appreciate it, although im doing a good job of trying! lol

My battery has started acting strangely for quite a while now. Essentially what happens is that when I try to charge it, it usually jumps straight from around 50% to 100%. Then, when I unplug it, it will act as if it is discharging normally for around 5%, then it'll jump down to around 45% and discharge normally. And it doesn't happen consistently, once in a while it will charge properly. It happens whether I am using a wall, car, or USB charger. I believe it started when I installed a nightly of CM 7.2 a while back, but it's still happening to me in SBF'd 608, and it could have started when I was still on CM 7.1. I downloaded a battery calibration app, and tried that several times, but it didn't help. Does anyone have any advice?

That will fix the symptoms, but I was hoping to figure out how to actually fix it. The battery charges perfectly fine in another D2G, and it charged fine in mine on 608 last night, so it's not the battery. It looks to me like a software issue. I'm going to see if it keeps doing alright on stock, and if it does, I guess I can assume it's a Cyanogen issue. Or an issue with my install of Cyanogen, anyways.
