Am I the only one going back to Evo 4g ? - HTC EVO 3D

Am I the only one going back to my evo 4g? I miss root, kickstand, screen size, and app compatibility and stability. Like Netflix, hulu plus, and games.
Sent from my PC36100 using Tapatalk

Netflix works, hulu works (same exploit as og evo), screen density can be changed once perm root hitsd...app stability? Haven't had a single FC not due to user error...just hold it out...

not to mention root will come with an unlocked bootloader, and a kickstand can be added via a case.

This is the most powerful phone I've ever owned. Speed and headroom are the most important, root will come soon enough now im just getting to know the stock veriosn of the 3D so when all the mods come, I can pick and choose the mods that fit me. Spend these unrooted moments to get to know the 3D before going hard in the paint with the mods. HTC is doing a great job addressing issues. I do miss the width and kickstand of the OG EVO but this phone is too powerful to go back. Hang in there with us.

from what i understand the features you miss arnt due to htc its due to the app devs screen size is about the same kickstand missing dont use mine and as far as stabability one of the downfalls of getting early phone

Screen size is definitely not the same. It's width is smaller and its longer. I don't think the phone is enough of an upgrade. They should have gone the route of the thunderbolt.

Yeah because obviously single core is better in every aspect
Or 512mb of RAM is better than 1Gb
Or a wvga display is better than qhd
The og EVO is tapped out..
The 3vo has yet to be pushed to its max
What did u expect? A phone that is custom tailored to your needs... Some of you ignorant people saying "its not a big enough upgrade". Do not know what a upgrade is...
And a tbolt!?! Lmfao have you even used or seen a tbolt other than a few minutes....

qhd means quarter high definition resolution, not the type of display. Which means it has exactly 1/4 the amount of pixels than full HD. The OG evo has a WVGA resoltuioin
theyre both lcd's. The evo 3d just a better one.

That's pretty much all you got? Evo 3D vs X phone threads? You just trolling hard, dude. Or should we forget your Evo vs SGS2 thread etc?
im 99% sure that this is the puccini tablet cause htc isnt famous for its screens if that woud be a samsung than that woud be something different and i hope in september will breeng us new devices cause i want to get one as htc failed with the gsm evo 3d and i woud newer by a high end device in september when new devices are anounced and i hope apple will bring us something exciting and new with the iphone 5

I think you would still be ok with the 3vo, however I would probably hold off judgement until then... By then you might have a solid Nexus Prime release date.
If it has ice cream update will definitely be a evo killer lol, but doubt it and it looks like an update thunderbolt when you look at the device id is almost the same as the thunderbolt (really nice device loved the screen on the phone)
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d

I would wait for the upgrade to get it on the cheap, but consider that we are just coming out of a round of processor releases, and if the last two cycles are any indication it will be about 16-18 months before anything that would count as a legitimate upgrade to the 3d will actually come out, so you'll be pretty close to another upgrade by then.
also in response to thread: really? i mean, we have 1.5ghz processors already and i dont think resolution has proven itself to be the metric by which phones live or die.

EVO 3D VS Photon 4G (my standpoint)

Is it me or is the evo 3d the most underrated phone ever? Phonedog, phonearena, etc. All have the photon being the better phone but there is no way this is possible. After reading many reviews i went to buy the Photon today thinking it was the all around better device... After purchasing i ended up returning it within hours. Not only was it faulty software wise, but also the build quality wasnt great either. Right when i got the phone home it had lag going from screen to screen, the evo 4g was more smooth honestly. Then it was lagging badly going in and out of text messages while vibrating randomly for no reason. I pulled the battery thinking it was just a one time glitch. Nope. It then just shut off in my hand and wouldnt turn on until i reinserted the battery. Now sure i could have just had a faulty Photon, but i doubt it because the store demo was very laggy as well... And by laggy i mean laggy for a super phone, just not smooth like the evo 3d for example. Being i was long time evo user i just said the hell with it and returned it for the evo 3d and havent looked back. So my question to you guys is, how much is Moto paying for these beastly reviews? Sure it may be a good phone (if not faulty) but even on build quality alone it cant touch the evo 3d.

If you don't have an Evo3d well ...
I had the photon for a few days. The lag you see is just the speed of blur..... Lol I got used to it and actually liked the phone alot. After a few days though the screen really started to hurt my eyes. Seeing individual pixels and seeing the screen "dance" really started to bug me. Returned it to the corporate store and went to the third party store I always shop at and ordered it there.
The mopho would be a fantastic phone if it was vanilla or sense.

the photon is awesome but the pentile display really kills the phone. Also the Evo 3d seems to be faster.

Pentile screen bug me, my buddy got it and he let me play with it for like 4 hours before he return it, watching youtube I couldn't stop staring at the damn little bar in the bottom(time line) - cause i would see pixel, for some reason is not the heavy, so it felt cheap(owning evo, evo 3d and iPhone 4) and lastly laggy in the launcher, i do like some features, like brighter screen and better speaker but i prefer to stay with my 3D better support and like 99% of the phone
If you don't have an Evo3d well you don't have an Evo3d
Yeah. I have the feeling many in media wanted to hate the phone for its 3d "gimmick" so they rearranged their "facts" to suit the prearranged outcome.
It's telling that many outlets failed to report root being obtained for the EVO 3D for example but many of them reported the photon's clumsy method of doing so.
It's also surprising that so many reviewers were quick to give the pentile display better marks than the super tft lcd on the EVO.

If you don't have an Evo3d well ...
I noticed the screen as well, but knowing it was pentile before hand it didnt bother me that much at all. Although when both screens in a dark viewing area the evo wins hands down. Another thing that bothers me about the Photon is how flimsy the back cover is, feel like youre going to break it everytime you have to rip it off (trust me youll have to do this a lot lol). Another thing that bothers me is the texture on the back of the phone, sure its nice looking at first but if not using a case this material attracts sweat marks and actually gets very dirty in time (same backing that was used on the razr 2 i believe it was) come to think of it, materials and color of the photon reminds me of a smartphone version of the sprint razr 2.

I went into the Sprint store the other day to check one out. It's a nice phone and all but i really dig sense UI and everything else just looks boring to me. Two things I liked over EVO was the kickstand and the docking feature. But the pc setup all has to be bought seperate, I don't think there is a micro SD slot(correct me if i am wrong), and like said it didn't seem to run as smooth.
I actually liked the build and look of it very much.

And when that comes out another phone will be announced as "coming soon" and it will be better, faster, stronger and sexier than the GSII and you should wait for that. Then when that comes out there will be another phone announced that will be even betterer, fasterer, and strongerer than this phone and you should wait for that, and then....it never stops. So basically, you should still be using a rotary house phone and not even have a cell phone until all technology stops progressing.
The good news is, with our current patent system in place, pretty soon technology WILL stop and the only phone you will ever get is the iPhone which Apple won't even have to bother updating anymore because no one else can make a phone anyway.

Evo 3D sense 3.5

Anyone have any clue if we'll be getting it? The bliss is coming with it and its a 800mhz single core. The og evo never saw a new version of sense. Does HTC just update android versions? Or have any phones gotten a sense version upgrade?
Sent from my Xoom using XDA Premium App
I believe the only reply that can be said is who the heck knows outsidev of htc and sprint. I'm not being rude, but nobody knows when anything comes out. Htc has, as other companies a tight lipped, not tell policy. Outside of leaks, your guess is as good as any. Example, we know when we are getting ice cream, 4 quarter this year, do you know when we are getting it for the 3vo? If anybody does know I would to.

I'm curious to see what will be added in Sense 3.5. But if it's anything worth while, it would be rather odd if the Evo 3D didn't get it. I mean, the Sensation and especially the Evo 3D are clearly HTC's flagships so it would only make sense (haha) to have these phones rocking the latest and greatest Sense version.
Unless HTC plans on releasing a new flagship phone short after the Bliss?

We probably will. Only since our phone was just released though.

Anyone have any clue if we'll be getting it? The bliss is coming with it and its a 800mhz single core. The og evo never saw a new version of sense. Does HTC just update android versions? Or have any phones gotten a sense version upgrade?

I would have agreed on older builds of Touchflo--->Sense but 3.0 is very nice and useful; much better in design and function than Touchwiz or Motoblur. AOSP is too bland for me after using Sense 3.0...

Yes, phones get sense updates, at least the EVO Shift did.

I think that was a poor choice on HTC and/or Sprints part too. Granted the processor wasn't as capable as the current SoC in the EVO 3d but it was tested and shown to work very effectively on the EVO 4G's hardware.
With a little tweak & optimization, it could have been outfited on the EVO 4G but then HTC was likely looking forward to the future EVO 3D...
The Sense Dev site is live so even when 4.x comes around we should be fine.
Given how new our phones are, it's just a matter of time.

4.x with sense 4? I bet that's what htcs planning. Lol. Which would be really cool. The evo 4g could have at least be given 2.1, to unlock the full hardware potential

really? you probably don't want it! if an 800mhz can run it its probably just a striped down version of 3.0 (without animations and 3d widgets)

+1 yea it doesnt make sense for them to put a better UI on something that is.not a flagship and less than half as powerful as the.e3d ..I was looking at some of the new features on the new MOTO features that is on the Droid 3 (not on photon yet) and although I'm not a fan in whole they have some nice features like being able to pan side to side when pinch to zoom as well as a couple of other things..btw I just made a special trip to the sprint store to see what all the fuss was.over the photon and i must say I don't think its as nice as the e3d..the pixels on the screen is.very noticeable to me and the UI is laggy ..

Not that it means anything concrete, but my friend just got the official 2.3.4 update on his (Bell) Desire Z, and it seems to have included Sense 3.0.
SENSE 3.5

Nice, but not all that...

Other than the awesome camera, and slim unibody design, this Evo LTE really isn't that much better than my old Photon. I'll probably feel differently when LTE is live, but considering there's not even WiMax in Wisconsin, it wasn't that much of an upgrade.
However, Sprint made a mistake and said I was eligible for an upgrade 7 months into my 2 yr contract, and my charging port on the Photon broke...so I'm not really complaining
Basically, if it's time to upgrade, go for it...but if your phone is only a year old, or less, I'd wait - unless you're in a first wave LTE market.

Thanks for the input.. But u forgot the 720p display.. Which sucked on the photon.. The way improved soc etc.. I don't know why ppl feel the need to post comments like this.. Just chime in on another thread (there's alot of them) thanks
It's one of the best phones... Globally lol! You only have that say for like a few months. Take a dump on that Photon & call it scientific.
Everything's awesome & no one is happy.

If you don't have anything nice to say then don't say anything at all.
If this phone isn't that good then could you name a phone that's better? The GS3? Maybe a bit nicer maybe not? If you're looking for something better then you might be waiting for something that's not even out yet.
Did he really just compare the Photon to the EvoLTE???

I get what the op is saying about the not worth it if the phone you have is a yr old or less. He is one of the few people that obviously don't upgrade to every increment.
And that he liked his photon enough just like a lot on the 3d couldn't see the point in upgrading to this email phone. Now until we get some hd apps other then hulu the screen is nice. I netflix hd would be a improvement as well as hulu in hd. I have no clue what performance is like on the photon. When it came out it was full of lag. And besides he was giving his thoughts switching from one to another right place meh maybe he could have put it I will another thread bu yeab.

That's how I feel when ppl say stuff like this.. Besides the lack of LTE atm what phone hardware wise is better.. Even with the gs3 u may get more ram (which is nice) but u lose the metal unibody and overall better build
This phone is a major step up from most of Motorola's phones which use crappy screens.
It's also the smoothest HTC phone I've had, and the audio is actually better than the iPhone that it replaced, and that is saying a lot because HTC headphone outs have always been crappy to me

My beats tours sound great.. They did a good job with that especially compared to the evo 3d.. Oh yea the tours are fake too.. Got duped but they sound great to me and are indistinguishable from the real ones unless u really have a good eye
Pretty much the best phone available.
Lmao, the photon that dam lag master piece of junk. Just shot yourself please, because you must not really know about your talking about.

Your on crack. They shoulda called this a downgrade. I wouldnt even be happy with this phone at $100 price point HTC has a long way to go before this phone can compete with the big dogs.
