[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
Without numerous 3D devices there is no reason for developers to generate 3D content, without 3D content there is no reason for manufacturers to develope 3D devices. Since only two phones (that I can think of) came equipped with 3D screens in the US, there was never a boom of 3D content, and thus, never a reason for other manufacturers to introduce 3D devices.

HTC, LG and perhaps even Sprint should have offered something in the way of 3D content to attract adopters. However, 3D users were left to forge our own path and we never found a suitable use for 3D besides showing our friends a 3D picture and saying, "Isn't that cool!" That just isn't enough to make 3D a needed addition to a smartphone.

That being said, the Evo 3D is still a great phone and compares favorably to many phones being released today. So why did Sprint decide to give it the axe, especially considering the OG Evo lived well on into the life-span of the 3D? I would say LTE has a lot to do with it. With Sprint moving to LTE there was no reason to jeep the 3D on-board with the arrival of the Evo 4G LTE.

Both WiMAX and LTE (or even 3G) were never a problem for me since I don't have them in my area, or will any time soon unless I jump to Verizon, so for now I'll stick with the 3D nobody seems to want, I still think it is a great phone.

I kinda went on for a bit there, huh? lol.
[HTC EVO 3D] LiquidSolstice:
Fantastic post, I completely agree with this. 3D just never really caught on (at least in the US) for a variety of reasons. I'm sad that they sacrificed a better camera for 3D, but what can you do?
[HTC EVO 3D] Mexhawk06:
I would not call it a failure. It's an epic failure. What a waste of 200 bucks. Oh wait I got it for free.:D
[HTC EVO 3D] wtd03:
So would you say this phone is now a rare artifact that could be worth $$$ one day? Or just another paperweight?
[HTC EVO 3D] phillip1953:
I got mine for 10 bucks. Otherwise I'd never had bought one. I like everything about the phone, but in my opinion, the 3d part was a waste of development.
[HTC EVO 3D] NexuGsx:
I agree as well. I also think that 3D on the unit was pushed without a big "this phone works in 2D just like any other phone" disclaimer. Many of my non-phone-savvy friends had heard of the Evo3D, but thought it was full time 3D. If they would have sold the phone sans 3D, I think it would have had a much better outcome. It was the best phone at the time as far as hardware is concerned.
[HTC EVO 3D] raptoro07:
Sure, I'm still waiting to cash in on my StarTAC.
[HTC EVO 3D] austin420:
I got mine for free as well. Just came from asurion yesterday. I came from the epic 4G.
[HTC EVO 3D] IAmSixNine:
Also not everybody was able to view 3D comfrotably. Some people had issues with headaches or nausea or simply couldnt find the spot for 3D to work right.

Took me a while to get mine in the right comfort zone..

Im on the eVO LTE but kept my 3D as a back up.

Been waiting for ICS so i can see how much better it will run with that.

I think the device its self is great, but the 3D part never got momentum..
[HTC EVO 3D] phillip1953:
I sold my Amiga 3000/040 two months ago for $1000.00.
[HTC EVO 3D] Astrikz:
My opinion is. The 3d feature was a failure not the actual phone.

I love my evo 3d its performance is great and the screen is amazing.

when i bought mine for 100 buckets i didn't care much about the 3d feature but more on the performance.
[HTC EVO 3D] xDragod:
I don't know... I came from a CDMA Hero. For the first few weeks, my 3D felt like the most powerful phone in the world to me. Now, I'm constantly getting annoyed with things. No official support for CM9. None of the custom ROMs really offer what I want (because I want a functional CM9 ROM...) and now the Sense 3.6 ICS ROMs give me trouble with my university's Wifi security, so I can't use Wifi at all on-campus. With Sprint's crappy network and signal penetration, I'm stuck on 1X when I am standing by a window. It's very, very frustrating.

I really wish there weren't 18 months left on my family's contract. I'd love to switch to a GSM provider. I honestly wish I had a GS3 or even a GS2. Used a friend's GS2. I could see tons of stuff running in the notification area and stuff all over the homescreen. It was running like butter. I was seriously jealous. I don't even want to think about how nice a GS3 would be at this point.

My 3D will get me through the next 18 months... but I'm definitely going to recommend my family switches to a better carrier.
[HTC EVO 3D] waltnich:
Y'all bought a 3D for a Reason???

W0W :cyclops:

I walked into the Sprint store with a 4G the got run over by a car and there wuz a party. The guest of honor waa 3D - how could I sleeze outa honoring the guest of honor.

Last thing I cared about wuz 3D pics. A camera button - epic.

I luv the phone, sans the gimmic. and yes iTz, I've grown to luv the 3D pics too.

Now ICS without sense 4 iz criminal HTC/Sprint. The phone can handle it and U Oit2us -
[HTC EVO 3D] bignibb:
Well I for one like my 3D and have no desire to jump ship until the LTE network hits my area (Probally 2025) or a 3D LTE EVO hits the market. I use my 3D and my mhl adapter to play 3D movies onto my 3d tv. I currently have limited 4g access at my Home so until that stops I'm pretty happy
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
Might be the same question we ask about the LTE in one year. I will take the 3d with WiMAX vs the LTE with a promise of LTE maybe by the end of that contract.
[HTC EVO 3D] notasimpleway:
Not till the iPhone comes out with a 3D model and it will be something they invented. Everyone will go crazy over it then.
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
Oh, so true. lol
[HTC EVO 3D] A2CKilla:
I wouldn't say it'll be worth money, but it definitely will be a rare sprint phone like the kyocera echo and the blackberry 9850, bet most of you don't remember the A900 the sprint version of the razr
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
Wow, I doubt someone took their time to read that. I see the education system has failed .

On another note, the 3d probablybe worth something in the future. I mean reallly take a look at it, in our hands we have the FIRST 3d phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] A2CKilla:
Lol someone has room to talk when they can't spell probably
[HTC EVO 3D] weidnerj:
How many of us bought the 3d on release day? 3d might have been too early - could see if 3d TVs were more main stream that having a phone capable of doing 3d might be more useful. But minus the 8 for a 5 MP camera, it still was a 2d phone too.

Can imagine if true 3d does happen to be a reality where 3d TV or something like hologram becomes a staple in every house that we might be kicking ourselves for not having priceless memories on video or photos. Even 3d photos can be viewed as 2d.

Actually as much as a gimmick as it was, I would buy another 3d camera phone...
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Agreed. The thing I dislike about 3d is that you have to be in that 'sweet spot' to see the effect.

Once technology advances and the 3d can be seen at all angles, I think the iPhone will end up with the feature.

Once the iPhone gets it, we all will. Then there will be more 3d content. Apps will probably adopt it and other things - Such as what many of us were hoping to see - 3D pornography.

Wow a keyboard error. It's called typo if you're unaware.
[HTC EVO 3D] Threevo:
There is 3d pornography my good sir. \('.')/
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Are you talking about red/blue or side by side?

Red/blue doesn't work with our phones.

If there is side by side, I'd need a few samples for... science...

[HTC EVO 3D] :
For the phone, after a while, I too got better at seeing the 3d. I can move my head around a little bit and still see the 3d.

It is however annoying trying to get other people to see that sweet spot.

[HTC EVO 3D] shook187:
Sprints number one failure was the Kyocera Echo. The 3d is still being sold but as a prepaid phone and will be sold for a while longer. The 3d will be virgin Mobile's flagship device. My prediction is, it will have a shelf life for another year and that my friend isnt a total failure at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mexhawk06:
If you paid 100.50 or more for the 3d you got screwed!!
[HTC EVO 3D] aypanthony:
Many of us paid $250 on contract with Sprint when the 3D first came out. It was the best phone at the time. I don't think I got screwed.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mexhawk06:
Omg! I think thats alot of money. Plus a contract. You guys definitely overpaid. For example the evo 4g was well worth it because I saw my self able to stick to that phone for at least two years. I been having the 3d for like 4 months and I already feel the need to upgrade. That's just my opinion.:thumbup:
[HTC EVO 3D] phillip1953:
The Evo 4g was/is no better than the Evo 3d in regards to "the need to upgrade." I also have both, and the 3d smokes my 4g. ICS for the 4g? Hell, ICS isn't an official OS on the 3d yet (well, now it is) and we have a dozen or more "flavors" to choose from.

Your "need" to upgrade the 3d isn't because there's some phone that's able to thoroughly kick its ass. Your "need" is because you want something new and shiney. :)

The 3d will serve me well until my area has LTE. By that time, there will be something much better to upgrade to. Maybe a quad cpu phone?? :)
[HTC EVO 3D] Mexhawk06:
I completely disagree! I see no difference between evo 4g and evo 3d. Well except 3d which is useless. The market has proven that the original evo had better value than the 3d. How long did it take the 3d to go from 200 on contract to being discontinued? I feel the need to upgrade because the 3d was not an upgrade at all.
[HTC EVO 3D] lurkist:
I just bought a 3D (will arrive tomorrow) after reading around and weighing up the pros and cons. I paid £220 (unlocked), so I hope you lot jest!

I am coming from a Touch HD, so I expect the difference to be significant, and I can't wait to start taking 3D pics and vids. Bit skeptical about Android though, always thought it made phones feel like toys, but I have to face that WM6.5 is long dead so I'm entering this brave new world.
[HTC EVO 3D] bigant262:
I just don't like the fact that Android 4.1 is going to be going out next month already, and we haven't even been updated to 4.0. I think the whole update thing should be worked on very closely with Google, handset manufacturers, and the carriers. Google should be more strict.
[HTC EVO 3D] flonker:
I'm pretty sure you will greatly enjoy your new phone. I have now owned this phone for more than a year and am still satisfied with it, and usually it is a no brainer for me to upgrade every year. Now I'm thinking I'll have this phone till Halloween. Android is awesome too, you'll fall in love if you're coming from WM 6.5.
[HTC EVO 3D] berbecverde:
3D feature a failure? Not for me.Since i do not own a 3D TV, i watch all 3D movies on my EVO and i like it.

Those who do not like the 3D feature, sell it and buy something else.:D

I would buy a 3D phone again anytime, and then again and again.I like it.:D

I admit that some things could be improved but it is a great phone.:good:
[HTC EVO 3D] woody296:
If you figure in selling the original evo, and getting PAID to upgrade early last year at this time, a bunch of us actually MADE money on this phone. And with a little clever deal making off craigs list who knows what lies ahead. But it sure isn't paying out money to sprint to upgrade early. Especially for new phones at high prices with even worse ETFs and a non-existing network.
[HTC EVO 3D] gav83collins:
I'd never sell mine, if the format of 3d changes how are our grandkids gonna see the homemade 3d pics and vids of they're parents gg parents etc, as for rarity that will depend in cam spec and original hboot lol

---------- Post added at 08:58 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:57 PM ----------

As for 3d content, they're are quite a few 3d movies games and apps out there if you know how to search for them
[HTC EVO 3D] piscesjoey:
The 3D had a lot of potential to be more than it was, but HTC really screwed the pooch on it, especially with its half ass rooting method, then came along the GS2 which had none of its headaches & most of the devs from the OG Evo went that direction.
[HTC EVO 3D] phillip1953:
Ya...no difference at all between the 3d and the Evo 4g other than 3d....no difference at all. :-D
[HTC EVO 3D] troyboytn:
I paid $199 for my 3d but I didn't get screwed at all! It was top of the line at that time....better than anything AT&T, Verizon, or Tmobile had. Granted, I only bought it because I broke my 4g while out of town and needed a phone asap and used my upgrade but it was still worth the price. I still prefer the look, feel, feel and camera of my old 4g over the 3d but performance wise, my 3d is far far ahead. So, no, I didn't get screwed....
[HTC EVO 3D] Keion:
That feel when the 3d is sturdy as hell. I dropped this several times from above 6 feet. No damage to the screen, minimal to the plastic. I don't think any other phone could do this because most phones these days are super thin except maybe the rugged niche phones. Also dunked my 3d in a little bit of water. Totally fine.
[HTC EVO 3D] deathspankd:
This phone I feel is a masterpiece of its own. To say this phone is a failure is just saying it didn't meet expectations. Even though the phone has its faults everyone who owned the phone had the experience whether good or bad with 3d imaging that wasn't a 3ds. Personally I say the phone could've been better but I love this phone. This phone has so far has given me the best experiences than other phones I've had before. If it seems like the phone failed its probably because of marketing. The evo 4g and evo 4g lte have had better marketing to help promote the product
[HTC EVO 3D] Mexhawk06:
Yeah, I think T-Mobile had the sensation 4g at the same time. Which looks better than the 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] Felnarion:
Weird how all of you are talking about the 3d, when the phone on its own is a very solid phone. The construction is decent, it feels good, battery life is average, performance is good, screen (was) high res and good.

It absolutely is a completely solid phone that will still do anything you throw at it. The 3d is a throw away, doesn't matter, because at the end of the day, you don't have to use it for a moment, and you still have an awesome phone.

I don't think the problem is at all the 3d. It's the marketing of the 3d. Everything was about HOW 3d it was, and not, like the Evo, "Hey, this is an amazing phone, gingerbread, you can do this, this, this, dual core, oh, and by the way, watch this: *Flips 3d switch*"

Instead it was "*Flips 3d switch* Yeah? You like that? Ha? Mm? Good stuff. 3d." and completely ignored all the awesome aspects of the phone.
[HTC EVO 3D] lurkist:
You're right, I'm in love!
[HTC EVO 3D] lreillyi:
The evo 3d was one of my favorite phones by far. The 3d was awesome, and it was sturdy. Had a bit of the plastic back give way after 2 years of throwing it around, but that was it. It wasn't until the one came out that I upgraded, and as much as I love the One... I kinda miss my 3d.
[HTC EVO 3D] lurkist:
Well I still love this phone. It's in almost the exact condition I had it in, despite heavy use. It does everything I want it to, and I'm never trading it in. I'm going to use it until it simply dies.

And then I'll probably eBay another one :)
[HTC EVO 3D] viper08:
The 3d side of the phone is just a nice gimmick......I show people 3d content and all they say is "it hurts my eyes....."
[HTC EVO 3D] 2be3_80:
Hi,

I am using this phone for 1,5 year and after getting it s-off and flashing 4.3.1 rom it has new life again.

Still it is good phone and 3D is just a gimmick for me which on 4.3.1 custom rom is not working any more, but i don't miss it.:)
[HTC EVO 3D] lreillyi:
I hope HTC makes a new 3d phone across all carriers... I think that was part of the evo 3d's problem... Not enough people to share 3d content with.

[Motorola Droid RAZR] prstorero:
for some reason when my phone boots up i get a "blank internal storage" message and when i click on it it says "Format internal storage, erasing all files stored there? Action cannon be reversed!"

It started coming up after i installed the 211 ota manually through recovery. I'm afraid to hit the format option because idk if it will erase something that will screw the phone up. I don't have anything saved on the internal memory since i got into a fastboot failure last night and got everything totally wiped aside from the external SD card. I tried doing a factory reset and cleaning cache but the message still appears. If i go into "my files" and click on internal storage it says "Internal phone storage is Unmounted. Mount Internal phone storage to read files."

How could it be unmounted and how can i re-mount it? If i remember correctly, it has that option in safestrap but i only have the stock recovery right now and it cant do that. So do i need to install safestrap and give it a shot?

edit: i just decided to take the chance and format internal storage and now its working as well as my gallery no longer says its in mass storage mode when its not plugged in haha. I guess they were tied together.

Ok I've had so much problems. I pretty much cracked my screen (Verizon will charge me so no replacement) and then bought a replacement screen and had a store put it on for me. Then the led lights started showing up on the bottom below buttons in white and dust behind screen. So I decided to take a replacement from Verizon but then they said no cause warrenty sticker was "altered". So then I took back to the store that fixed the screen to fix the led problem and they said we can't cause u bought the screen without the LEDs and the orgional LEDs broke.

So I need someone if they could take an hd close up of there rezound warrenty sticker print it and glue it on. I do not care I will take the risk so I can replace at Verizon
