[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Kujila:
Anyone remember the Intercept? I remember it would always turn off when you moved it around due to the battery sliding around, so I had to jam paper in the back cover to make it work right!

I like HTC better, but I did have a Turd Pro 2 for a while and didn't like it! I guess I didn't like the Windows Mobile OS more than anything, though, so not sure I can fault HTC on that! :p

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] djkraemer:
I just sold my Epic 4G Touch (SGS2) and traded in for the new EVO. It felt like a toy compared to this, and even my og EVO.

THIS THING FEELS PREMIUM.

What got me about the SGS2 was the partitioning scheme of the device and that flashing a new kernel wiped out your recovery. If you flash a bad image, it's a pain in the ass to fix.

I've owned my last Samsung phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rieksfier:
I had an Instinct which was okay. Not an I phone killer like everyone said it was going to be. Then I got the Instinct HD. That phone was pure garbage. Constantly overheating while charging and using data. Lock-ups galore. The battery life was horrible do to bad software. I vowed never to buy another Samsung phone again. For the most part they are still plastic pieces of garbage. Touchwiz is a crap quasi Apple/Beautiful Widgets UI.

Weird. Guess I was lucky.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] hercules rockefeller:
I had the 6700 also, my freind Rob used to make fun of the cheap looking silver body, he called it a "Fisher-Price My First Smartphone". To be fair though, it was my first smartphone... I still actually have that PPC-6700 though. I loaded up some music on it and gave it to my son to use as a media player. I went from that to the touch pro to the TP2 (never had any issues with the keyboard), and then the OG EVO and the LTEVO, and I loved them all. The only times I had problems with them was when I dropped them too many times (and I lucked out on gettting a brand-new TP2 to replace my original TP through the service and repair plan, so no complaints there).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Antebios:
I have had a long affair with HTC. I haven't meant to end up this way, but my affair started back with the HTC Wallaby using Microsoft PocketPC. Later it continued with the HTC Alpine using PocketPC again. Next was the HTC G1 Dream, then the HTC EVO 4G, and now my latest affair is with a very slim and curvy HTC EVO 4G LTE. I have wanted to look for greener pastures, but my eyes always come back to HTC. They keep pulling me back in!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jpxzero:
Holy crap, that sucks big time. Honestly both HTC and Samsung have some amazing phones, and some really ****ty ones. The Galaxy SII was an amazing and still is an amazing phone. The problem with HTC is their freaking battery life, but I'll take that any day over an exploding phone

Haha so it was an external force like I thought.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] BamAlmighty:
The LTE is going to be my last HTC phone. This is my fifth, I've also had a 3D, 4G, Touch Pro 2, and Touch.

But their complete lack of support for the LTE so far doesn't give me much faith in their future. The LTE has been out for over a month and still not a update to fix the bugs or to address the Google Wallet issue.

The Galaxy S3 has only been out a little over 2 weeks and Samsung already issued an update to fix their Google Wallet issue and bug fixes.

So... HTC took a step forward with their build quality, but several steps back with their user experience.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SAMPCam:
To be fair, HTC might've already made an update. For all we know, Sprint may be testing it before they decide to make it OTA. What I'm trying to say is that the hold up is not necessarily on HTC's end, it may be on Sprint's.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] bharris25:
The one x and one s don't have the google wallet problems, only real difference is sprint so I think that's where the fault lies...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kali323:
I'm guessing you guys skip the Evo 3D. It is the worst dual core phone ever. It was HTC's 2011 flagship phone for Sprint and it was really bad for a flagship phone. Good build quality my ass.

I don't why guys mad over a couple phones that came out many years ago (especially in technology time). Samsung has come a long way since the Instinct and Moment. That's why Samsung Galaxy S II/III are the most popular android phones by far (And people don't buy it for status symbol unlike the iPhone).
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Rocklee99:
I HATED THAT PHONE! Omg...xD I know they make better ones now...but omg, I ended my contract early because of that thing...and I got my self the og evo two years ago...
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] kbrn:
Amen!! I had one of those too and it was hell!

I just picked up my LtevO yesterday to give my motorola photon a break..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Spyderekz:
the guy microwaved his phone..
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NitrousPanda:
I had an LG red flip phone (pm2## not sure what it was) crap phone (obviously) and I switched over to the OG rumor, pos as expected. Upgraded to the Instinct, regretted it immediately. ALTHOUGH, that instinct could take a bullet and still work, before I upgraded I tried for an hour to crack the screen because I was bored. I through it against a brick wall as hard as I could, just a dent XD. I stabbed it with a knife, still didn't do anything, ran it over with my car, and it finally broke, yet the screen worked still -.- lit it on fire, and it was finished. As for my other phones, HTC Hero, HTC Evo, tried Samsung again with the Galaxy Nexus, and after two days dealing with cheap plastic switched to the LTEVO. And it is perfect!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] JMQUINT00:
I totally agree, the instinct was a massive failure mostly because of the crappy software. But then android came along and saved a bunch of people. God bless Google.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] IceCreaMan:
I am unfortunately still debating on which to get sg3 or a evo lte both are on par with each other as far as performance ..it's just a personal choice for everyone between cosmetics and touch wiz vs sense. After having the og evo and a Motorola photon I definitely miss htc sense. Using touch wiz on my Samsung galaxy tab 10 is ok but it's not sense.

The evo lte is going for $150 for upgrade customer and the sprint store will give me $80 for my photon so that makes the decision almost a no brainier but I may just go back to the sprint and do another comparison.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] NitrousPanda:
SG3 and LTEVO are both great devices. Both have ics, both have separate OEM themes. Build quality goes to LTEVO because its not cheap and plasticy feeling. Although the SG3 does have some features which I know could throw you over into that boat. But I recommend the LTEVO. Samsung has wrong me in the past, (TVs, other devices) and unless you get a Nexus, you probably won't be getting JB for a while. On the other hand HTC isnt the best on updating either, but from my experiences they've been more consistent.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] elmattias:
exactly this.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] firmbiz94:
I had the 3d and I actually very much liked it..for the time it was and still is a great device..it def multi tasked better than my LTE..and I can name a bunch of dual core phones that imo were worse than the 3d ...but that's all subjective..besides the atrix I believe it was one of the first dual cores and I def felt a big boost in speed when compared to my og..I didn't like the camera but that was par for the course for HTC at the time....btw I.meant to hit quote not thanks..ur welcome
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] LiquidSolstice:
Just wanted to reiterate (posted a thread about this myself), this isn't Samsung's fault.

The idiot actually microwaved his own goddamn phone and claimed it just "suddenly happened".

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] woody296:
Considering today you can buy one of these for a hundred bucks off craigslist, not extend your contract, not have have a higher insurance premium,have a better chance of having 4g today, and have many choices of great roms make this a great phone, probably better than when it came out. And my year old 3d was still straight when i traded it for an epic touch. (just giving lte owners a jab, i really like that phone also)

So has anyone been able to find the tectiles yet, samsungs page was down when I checked today?

Edit: Here is an app that mimics "smart stay" , IseeYou

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] kegacide:
my question about the tectiles is do regular NFC chips work with it also? i bought a bunch of them when i had my ummm nexus s 4g? yeah i think that had the NFC and used the NFC chips in my car to activate car mode and change some settings...

i still have those somewhere so if tectiles are just standard NFC chips i should be good to go...
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
Yes, any phone with NFC can use them, this came from a Samsung rep.

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] KennyG123:

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
July 1st, that's when zanderman112 is up for an upgrade ;)

Edit: So I activate my ET4G on my brothers number and activate my og epic for myself, just to set up for next week. I wanted to go ahead and set him up with cm9a5 (which is flawless in my eyes, thanks TeamEpic) and get that over with before my sgs3 shows next week.

I was already running cm9b5 on the og epic, and loving it. Now its activated and I'm using it more (before it was just a media player/app tester) and I can't help but miss my sgs2, but what that really says is,,, I'm going to LOVE the sgs3 even more when I have it ;)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] tribble222:
I bet that burned up samsung was just left in a hot car on a hot day in the sun.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
I don't even think that would cause it, it could have been a short in the wiring, he got it wet, could be several things caused by the user. Either way, its only been reported once ;)
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] zanderman112:
Aye, it is :-) I'll be ordering it online though(most likely), so I'll have it just a few days after that

~E.R.A.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
Yeah, I can't wait to join in on the fun, and help people (as much as I can). But it looks like exfat may be causing some corruption. Now I feel bad for them. Atleast what it does is bring to light a problem with the exfat protocol that Samsung needs to fix, or patch.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nicholaaaas:
I heard the problem with exFat is when you plug it into the computer it doesn't unmount from the phone so having it mounted it two locations is the cause of the corrupted files
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] gtuansdiamm:
I order that day too

And are you fine with me calling you spider mod ?
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
Now I really want to test it and see. Maybe a patch can be made.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nicholaaaas:
yeah I would think a simple script to unmount it from the phone would work. But it's pretty ridiculous that it's even necessary. Why Android writes things like this out makes no sense
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] LILREDJAY:
I think it was someone who works for apple. Besides it was only 1 instance of this ever happening. This was definitely that 1 BAD APPLE in the batch!

[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] TeamERA:
Well you know something big is coming at IO, but I'm glad I pre ordered my PB 32gb version o_0
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] KennyG123:
Actually that is awesome. They are looking to combine all the U.S. GS3s in one forum like the Nexus so I will probably not mod here. Really like Spidermod!
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] KennyG123:
Thought those were not scheduled until November.
[Galaxy S III General (US Carriers)] nicholaaaas:
I think the big news is gonna be Jellybean. It would be bad business to take any steam from the SG3 right now

Wow, our family just got much bigger thanks to xda :) that could be a good and a bad thing though.

[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] evoevo:
I have been searching for 3 days trying to find the problem. I have an AT&T Galaxy s 2 that I rooted using the Zedomax root through ODIN. I unlocked it to use for my T-mobile service. Everything was working fine for months. Then one day I woke up to use my phone and there was a circle with a cross through it. I am not able to call out or even get a data connection. So I tried flashing back to stock no root and same thing. I put a AT&T sim in and it was the same thing. Flashed back to root several times and I still get the same thing. I checked to see if my radio was on and it was fine. Did Either Service just block the phone? I don't get it. When I leave my house I get bars but no connection on both data or service. Yet I get all kind of texts . So why wont it let me call out or even use my browser if i go down the street and it says it has service and is getting texts? I swapped phones and works perfect so I know it can't be my SIM.

Any help would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks.

DId u try calling T-mobile? or AT&T about the issue?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] evoevo:
Well I'm on a "no contract plan" and buy my phones cash. So no warranty. So Zedomax is bad?
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] doublen1:
Maybe flash a radio to it. I've noticed that I lose service with some roms occasionally. But when I do, I just flash a radio and it seems to fix it.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kinador:
Sounds like a bad APN setting to me.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Eternalty:
Very bad. Its well known to cause many problems on peoples phones. They usually come here after messing up their phone from his website which is no bueno and annoying. Stick with xda from now on, it won't steer u wrong
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] Kinador:
Call your service provider and verify your APN settings are correct.

From my own limited knowledge. A circle with line means no signal. Bars without a connection type icon means a signal but no service.

As far as useing the zedomax rooting method, as per the OP if it was running fine for monrhs, that clearly isn't the issue.
[AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777] evoevo:
I'll try flashing a radio and see if that works. .

i have checked all my APN settings and everything seems ok to me. I have hard reset multiple times. My data packet shows on. I also checked my settings to see if my radio is on and it says yes. My Iemi number shows. I'm so confused what could be wrong. It won't work with both ATT or T-mobile. Should work no matter what considering this is an ATT phone.
[HTC One X] no1son_uk:
I was wondering if any one might have any ideas I can try after searching all the treads I cant seem to come up with a solution, I just bought a Kidigi Cradle Charger with MHL HDMI TV Output but I can only seem to get sound out of the Left Chanel when I connect it.

So far I have tried 4 different players both music alone and also video, I tried 5 different cables and finally tried connecting to 2 different amps and also direct into the TV…End result still one channel. :confused:

I am struggling to know weather the fault is with the One x or the Kidigi Cradle…any suggestion would be appreciated.

Open the list of all your apps, there's an HTC app, I'm guessing it's called "Show" in English (I have the Dutch version myself, so I'm not sure what it's called in English), it has a green round icon with a white "i" in the middle.

[Defy Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Auris 1.6 vvt-i:
So, your phone is simlocked and when you flashed a different SBF, you have deleted the files that have (probably) previously been installed to unlock it. There are some custom ROM's out there that can simunlock Defy (one of them is MS2Ginger4.0). If you don't know what you're doing and can not handle it yourself, I could flash a custom, simunlocking ROM for you if you don't mind shipping it to Bulgaria and back (I assume you are in the UK).

P.S. There is also a chance that your sim card slot is busted and it can't read the SIM card.
