This section is already following suite of the EVO section where no one reads what has already been posted!
but why would they have a saturday release?
maybe "rough" meaning it will actually be Friday June 3rd?

Maybe the EVO 3D will be available at Best Buy a few days earlier than the "official" launch. I got my original TouchPro years ago at Best Buy on a Friday when the official Sprint launch was the following Sunday.

No way. This smartphone game is so much more high-profile than it was back then. Hell, it's even more high-profile than it was this time last year for the Evo4G. Everybody is super hush-hush about release dates. At this time last year I'm pretty sure we already heard that the Engineering RUU was leaked and the bootloader nand-unlocked had been achieved only a week later...very thorough and complete hands-on reviews were done by the zillions of people who got a free Evo4G at GoogleIO and the ones sent out to the tech press. After owning one for over a year I can honestly say that we had the most accurate picture painted of the Evo4G we possibly could have without having touched one...
...this year? Aside from tech specs that have been available for months, ummm, nothing except a few brief hands on at tech shows (complete with reports of every possible widget and app crashing or locking the unit).
On one hand I'm irritated at the lack of information. On the other hand I'm thoroughly impressed at the lack of information in this day and age.
Either way, I want some fncking answers.
bumm bum buhdum ( the price is right looser sound) with the bag pipes deflating after.
HA i knew this "rough launch" was BS. Someone just wanted their 15 min of fame. ( and got it for a while)

HTC/Sprint Bootloader Situation

I already posted once but needed a final goodnight so I can sleep in peace. 2 ways to look at this situation with the EVO 3D bootloader. First is, there are enough bugs with the phone (which in no way am I joking when I say "no big deal" this thing is a monster) and HTC should be proud of the technology, and they don't need a bunch of rooting newbies screwing with stuff they don't know about and bricking their phones and then saying it's flawed. So HTC doesnt want to OTA the S-off.
Or on the other hand, by rooting, they cave to Sprint because you can disable the ads, delete bloatware and the subs they get from blockbuster, gamesoft while trying to keep the stock above $5. And drag us along along, wait for the 30 days to expire and we eat the bullet... Or maybe even re-buy if it's unlocked 6 months later... Again, the phone is that good. I believe it may be the former, but if it's not maybe I will go to Apple and be locked down by "The Almighty Himself"... At least you know you are getting screwed on all levels.
Maybe I won't sleep well tonight.
HTC. sucks to be us... BTW Sprint/HTC no big strategy secret why you release on Friday. 2 days for the consumer to settle or for you to prepare to hit the PR campaign hard on Monday. "HERE'S AN IDEA, SHOW US YOU'RE DIFFERENT, DIDN'T BOTH COMPANIES PROMISE THE SAME THING? TRUST,UNLIMITED, OPEN SHARE? NO HAND-CUFFS, GREAT PRICES, THE FACT THAT YOU AREN'T THE "BLUE DEATH STAR AND BIG RED". Christmas showed up early, it was nice but I didn't get what I wanted. AND I PAID SANTA FOR WHAT I THOUGHT I WAS GETTING

Why we won't have ICS till june or later...

My theory is Sprint is **** blocking HTC from pushing it forward. The reason behind this is simple. I believe that they are trying to Push the Nexus Prime with ICS for a month or two then we will get it. Specs to a layman shopper these phones are close to one another (dual core, ram, ect) I know for us here they are not but the average Joe they are. Sprint pays a lot for new phones and the Evo 3D is near EOL so they'd rather have people looking at the new shiny then an old one. Just my humble two cents for what it's worth....
No i am not trolling and I own a 3D . I also don't know when EOL is but this June they'll have had it for a year so it's closer now then the PRIME is by almost a year.
You would actually think sprint would want to sell more of the 3d's right now, since they have a lot of inventory left. And if they don't sell them now at 150 or 200 bucks, they will have to discount them to 99 bucks or lower to get rid of remaining stock.
They did that to the EVO lol gave it gingerbread and few months later it went out the window. I don't think Sprint is the problem think HTC is tryin to make it flawless maybe

True sitlet but they have more money right now tied up in the nexus prime order then they do the remaining Evo's so if they want to recoup that fast they'd hold any phones getting ICS and have just the Prime for a month or two ... then update the other stock as well as introduce new phones. .... Again just my two cents. Thanks for you input though :
True Reaper that may be but HTC normally is pretty good at pushing updates or at least they were for the Hero for the first year as well as the og Evo. I'd rather blame Sprint cause HTC really is trying to get it's s**t together for it's user base and they've had ICS to play with now for what... 5 or 6 months? Cause the developers get it before they push it to phones or release the source....

$50 at Target, still big sellers here
I agree, given Sprint's track record with Eclair on the Hero and GB on the EVO and Shift, its gonna be a long spring for us here
HTC told us we would have ICS in the beginning of the year. I asked on Facebook why the ICS update has been posponed to "later in the year" instead of having it at "the beginning of the year", the response I got was that "nothing has been delayed" and then a link to their note on Facebook.
Here they said "beginning of the year"

Actually, if it isn't before the end of March, we were lied to. To me, "early" implies within the first three months of the year, but rest assured my friend, you guys with the GSM 3d will most certainly receive your ISC update LONG before we CDMA/Sprint users get ours.
Yeah, radioshack sold me mine for $100. That $200 pricing is already out the window.
I am betting they are looking for a way to force HBOOT 1.5 in order to use ICS. They probably have a release already ready... but they are hoping to add that hook. If too much time goes by, the public pressure will force them to release sooner than they want.
My prediction about the original HBOOT unlock delay was spot on, even though people called me crazy. So... don't doubt me this time.

There's no contract written here, no obligation, no reason at all to update us any faster than "they" like.

Yes, but in the same regard, that's their only time frame. It doesn't have to be this month or the next, or the one after that, as long as it's within the year.

I believe its 18 months..But still,jellybean will be out by the time month 18 comes for us 3D users.
I don't think we will see ICS until August-September. But it wont matter to me because I'm using my wife's upgrade in July for what ever is out or I just may leave Sprint because I'm tired of a sub par network.

If your right, then we as a community need to voice the opinion to Sprint directly about their poor choice in holding this back for us....
In all honesty the more I think about it a new phone coming out should not delay an update to an older one. Even if they were updating the 3D to Sense 4.0 the pure hardware alone of the new HTC device will be leaps ahead of ours and really an update to our device wouldn't delay or deter anyone from buying the new device anymore than if it wasn't out. If anything the publicity of Sprint pushing manufacturers to roll out OTA's faster would benefit them more...

I don't think the Nexus has anything to do with it. I believe it's all Sprint and what phone they consider their flagship device. When the Evo 4g came out it got babyed with a lot of software upgrades while the Epic 4g just sat and rot. Now you have the Epic 4G Touch as the flagship this time around and its been receiving quite a few updates. This includes some leaked ics builds. So I have reason to believe whatever is Sprints flagship device is the device Sprint will push manufacturers to develop for..

Farewell DX2 community! HTC Dinc2, Here I come!!! :D + Tips to score a new phone!

Statutory Warning : This post is SUPER long! May cause delusions, dehydration, rage towards Motorola and/or VZW or depression! For those who can't withstand this post, skip to the end for a one line summary.
So it has been over 8, dreadful and painful months with the DX2. And to dull this pain, I had you guys to follow and read up on. Great devs and their ROMs, Pepperm1nt, Nitro, the_guy_who_made_liberty (Oops, I dunno the name of the guy), Ryman222 for his Molten (which incidentally was my first ROM) and then comes mastafunk, aceoyame and the one and only Dragonzkiller!!! He was THE guy who let me have hope over the last few months (of course, with respect to my phone! If he was the sole reason I'd have hope in my life over the last few months then something is SERIOUSLY wrong with me... ).
There are many others like Moonshadow, TransX2, TravisdroidX2, iBolski (who was the inspiration for my BBB Moto attack), gaad0701, antp121 , Sandso9, ashclepdia(OMG! How did I forget you!) ad infinitum! All of you guys helped me have fun around in these forums and gave me numerous thanks as well. I am very grateful to you and will definitely miss you when I leave. So I'll still pop in every now and then so that I don't completely miss you guys!
Anyway, coming to the actual news! I got a Droid Incredible 2, currently being shipped by VZW with a back plate and a battery as well! Swell! Here is how this happened.
Over the last 1-2 weeks, I got very active in pursuing my Moto and VZW complaints. So, many phone calls, emails and chats have been exchanged. But in short, nothing significant emerged. Then I heard people complaining to VZW and getting a call from an engineer and being offered a Gnex!!! Naturally, I was jealous, but also inspired and motivated to attack VZW to score a new phone.
I got a call from VZW in response to my online complaint. I seized this opportunity to get in touch with a Tech support rep and elaborated and bemoaned about my phone's countless issues. She was sympathetic and TRIED to check if I could possibly get a different phone. Unfortunately I couldn't. BUT she said something that intrigued me! She said that I did not hit the threshold that would make me eligible to getting a different phone. I was told that I needed to order ONE more DX2 replacement device before I can get a different phone. You see, I only ordered one replacement so far. So I hatched a plan.
I ordered a second replacement DX2 (making it the third DX2 I had, the first being the one I purchased and the second and third being the replacements). I ordered it yesterday and I received it today.
Then, I didn't waste anytime tinkering and checking this phone. Instead I activated it and immediately called VZW claiming that this phone had all the issues my previous 2 phones had as well. They lied to you (Moto and VZW) so why not you lie as well! I told them I was not happy and that I was sure that getting another DX2 as a replacement will not help either as it seems to be an issue with all Droid X2's. I added that I was told if I had issues with this phone too, then they may be able to offer me a different model. She looked into it and said, YES, they can offer me a different model!!! Huzzah! Success, finally!
I went through the process and was told that I can have either the HTC Dinc2, the Motorola Droid 3 or the older Samsung Fascinate. Samsung fascinate!? Bleh! No thank you! Droid 3!!!??? Are you ****ing serious!!!??? It is like from one hell to another!!! Not only does it have a locked Bootloader, but it is not even confirmed to get ICS as of now! Plus, I will not go for Droid 3, purely on moral and ethical grounds. I will NOT be doing business with a company that plainly doesn't give a **** about its customers, like Motorola!
On the other hand, HTC has unlocked the Bootloader for the Dinc2 AND it has added Dinc2 to its ICS upgrade list!!! . Plus as per XDA forums, Dinc2 has LOADS of ICS ROMs. Now that is my sort of company!
So sign me up for a HTC Droid Incredible 2 I said to the customer care rep. And she did.
To others wanting to ditch this phone and get a new one like me, the following are some tips and tricks.
1. Complain to VZW. CALL Tech Support: 866-221-4096.Tell them all the faults of your phone you can think of. Refer to this list if you need help : http://forum.xda-developers.com/showpost.php?p=24528918&postcount=12
2. Tell them that you checked online forums and it appears that ALL DX2's have this problem. So, request them to give you a different device.
3. Now, if you had one or less replacements so far, you MAY not receive a different device. Still, try your best to push for it by stating the systematic issues with it and claiming that ALL DX2's have it. No harm in trying. If not, do what I did and order a replacement DX2 first. It won't cost you anything and you can order another replacement the very next day once you receive this one.
4. After you crossed the threshold of 2 or more replacements, repeat Step 1 and 2. Clearly mention that you have talked to a customer rep previously and that they told you that if you are still facing problems with the device, and if you have had significant replacements (the magic number is 2) then you can be considered/will be eligible to get a different device. Even though this may not have happened, the fact is true and I can confirm it. So, no harm in claiming that you were told as such. Repeat that you are sure and 100% positive that the problem won't be solved by a replacement DX2 and that you really want a different device.
5. After the VZW rep agrees, which I believe he/she will and should, go through your replacement options, choose the device you like best and proceed with ordering it as a replacement. Thank your lucky stars you reached this step. Go to your favorite church/temple/mosque/other spiritual place and pray/donate/do social or community service if you got REAL lucky and got a Gnex or may be even a Razr (though it is Craparola's Razr!!!)
6. Once your device arrives at home, close your eyes and return Craparola's DX2.
7. Profit! Sit back, relax and enjoy your new phone and the new found freedom it provides you!!!
The end!
Once again, I am glad I made SO many friends in this community. I am grateful for the entertainment, fun and thanks you guys gave me! I will pop in regularly and check up if Moto did anything right OR if you guys got CM9/ICS via DZK, some other dev or Moto!!!
May you survive this ****storm and hopefully emerge victorious by making Moto do what you want or be bailed out, like me, via VZW!
Cheers!!!
TL;DR? Well read this: Pained by Motorola and its DX2, I got bailed by VZW. Got myself a HTC Droid Incredible 2, yippee and Woohoo!
If Cspire had better lineup of phones then I would take the same route as I love to hack and fiddle with my devices. But I can't so I'm stuck with it. The phone itself is honestly the best I've had. I'm just disappointed that I can't toy around with it much.
bye...
it was a good run. gave me hope with all the work you did to try and get moto to fix this piece of ****. good luck in the VIVOW (sick codename btw) world. i would go for a dinc2 but my contracts up within the next month. thnks for the shoutout btw and you WILL be missed

Enjoy and good for you. I have been currently watching swappa for another device. I agree with your post and you never know I will see what device I end up on next.
Yea I'm waiting on my BBB complaint right now. Its been only a couple days but I'm holding out hope that I can get something better. As it is now, I love this phone but all the problems make me want another kind. I have a year left on the contract and don't know when early upgrade is but I don't plan on buying another device outright.

I was offered the Droid Incredible 2 as well, but sent it back. Rooting is complex, and S-Off? What is that? I read the sticky threads, and found out that you actually need to downgrade the phone to root it.
The phone is slow in comparison to the DX2, the stock launcher/homescreens are not customizable, no Bluetooth auto-answer, and I would not be able to tether it without paying another $30 for data that I am already grandfathered in for unlimited.
My phone was fine until I paired my Bluetooth headset, then all the issues started. I need a phone that can handle heavy Bluetooth usage and Bluetooth music listening.
I guess I will wait until August for my upgrade date.

Dude I had the EXACT same feeling when the person I bought my nexus from told me they put it on eBay with buy it now at 350(I am doing a split payment on it, so he put the nexus on for 350buy it now and extended bat for 100 that I pay for next week) and after he told me I refreshed the page and it wasn't showing up at first I was like seriously if someone got it in that 15seconds since he notified me it was ready I would have flipped lol
But for the whole two hours I was conversing with the guy my adrenaline was flowing for sure lmfao

I was offered the Droid Incredible 2 as well, but sent it back. Rooting is complex, and S-Off? What is that? I read the sticky threads, and found out that you actually need to downgrade the phone to root it.
The phone is slow in comparison to the DX2, the stock launcher/homescreens are not customizable, no Bluetooth auto-answer, and I would not be able to tether it without paying another $30 for data that I am already grandfathered in for unlimited.
My phone was fine until I paired my Bluetooth headset, then all the issues started. I need a phone that can handle heavy Bluetooth usage and Bluetooth music listening.
I guess I will wait until August for my upgrade date.

The downgrade to root and s-off is a one time deal
Once u have s-off u root easily any build u want usually
That's how it was with my buddies incredible
It was actually a LOT easier than I expected it to be lol

By the way, all the time I was talking to the customer rep and then she said she can send me a different model device, my hand was shaking and I was giddy with excitement!!!

I will be doing this on Tuesday when my replacement comes. I think I was too nice to them when I yelled at them on Thursday.

wow~~ wait this software:good::laugh:
They are still only half way sponsored. I don't think this is happening any time soon. People are cheap. Nobody wants to sponsor but everyone wants an app.
