lol \
sounds like a hater.
what was the point of this thread?

Actually I've owned two iphones and an ipod. My hate comes from theit whiny lawsuits against everybody that's a threat. I would like an ipad too but due to their gay lawsuits I will not support them no more. The point of the thread was to express how good the cable works if anyone was on the fence about getting one.
And I have gotten no lag on mine at all
What is with all the nazi posts on peoples threads lately? This is general is it not? Damn

Did you try a "Shut yo mouth" and a pimp slap?
Where did you get yours and how much?
I confused the crap out of like 5 best buy employees the other day asking about one. I was surprised when none them got pissed when I started explaining it real slow. "need cable go from here on phone to this(points at hdmi cable) on tv" They did try to sell me the micro hdmi cable for the evo 4g at least.
The best was there was a older gentleman asking a employee there if you could phone calls from the original galaxy tab because it says verizon on it, the kid said "yes sir you can" I'm standing 4 feet away "No you are wrong" then after about of a minute of explaning why he was wrong the kid disappeared. I stayed and talked to the older guy about tablets for a while and showed him some cool stuff on honeycomb. My nearest best buy is over a hour away so I try to have fun while I'm there.

Lol no more negativity , this phone is awesome

One week till launch! Too many iPhone fan boys clogging the xda threads and trying to trash this phone . Dual core, sense 3.0, qHD screen , 1gb of RAM , 4gb internal . That is one beast ass phone. Oh and it does 3D just for giggles. With the devs here at xda this phone will by far exceed everyone's expectations .
BTW you don't I repeat don't have to use 3D its not a gimmick or the whole purpose just a simple feature way too many people are trying to say it is bad.
I'm excited for my first dual core!

Thank you sir. I was getting tired of reading all these negative reviews. Can't wait to pick this up on Friday after work!
Agreed, what's the point of listening to people that have actually used the phone and have provided a critical assessment! No. I'd much rather read off the spec sheet and declare it AWESOME.
Hey, did you see the new Steve Carell movie?
Yes, it was just meh!

No, but the movie poster was hot and the trailer was amazing!

No reason to be a smartass. You don't like it, don't get it. The phone itself will be real solid, the 3d might not be, but why concentrate solely on that?

I been on my Instinct since 5 months ago since my Hero was destroyed :/. Anything is better than that so I wont be disappointed with the Evo 3D.
Awesome indeed!!!
I was fortunate enough to pick up an HTC seed unit last night and let tell you. THIS PHONE IS AWESOME!!!
Not even talking about the 3d... which upon first encounter was a bit tricky to get used to, but after shooting over 50 pictures/videos there's a science to getting it right.
The power of this phone lies in the dual core processor, the "super lcd" display, and updated software makes the phone run like a dream.
I was actually not very excited for this phone. I left android for WP7. (say what you may, but I use my phone a lot for work.) I can happily say the Evo 3d has brought me back into the fold...
But in short.. it's definately worth the wait!
What was your impression of the 2D pic quality (in relation to
4g?
Thanks

Honestly, the 2D picture quality is comprable to the Evo. I had a buddy take a picture of the exact same thing side by side on his Evo 4G. The quality is identical... unless you go full zoom on both devices, in which case the 4G is a winner, but not by a huge margin.
My biggest problem with the camera is the dedicated camera button. It is auto-focuses on light pressure and snaps the picture on the full press. It may just be because I have an otterbox case on it, but I find myself pushing so hard that I make the picture out of focus. Not a major gripe, as I'm learning to have a bit more... "finese" with the camera button. Ironically, I find the dedicated camera button to be EXTREMELY handy aside from my lack of initial nimbleness with it. Here are a few random 2D pictures I took if anyone wants to compare for themselves... and yes, very random pictures, I'm at work and don't have a lot to photograph..
Old Navy sign is no zoom / full zoom from the exact same distance. No zoom picture of a dairy queen cup... yup... I know...

Thank you steve for making me **** my pants laughing

Can't make up your mind? Here's a video review of the EVO 3D!

Hopefully this will get you going
Wow, this guy was actually wrong on a lot of little issues.
"all this working on 1 core"
really?
"metal rocker buttons"
no, very clearly plastic.
"Sprint apps can be uninstalled"
Not REALLY.. uninstalling (without root) only hides the icon, the app is still there, and possibly running.
aside from that and his inability to not say "umm.." and toss the phone around like it was dead fish it wasn't bad.
And yeah, the battery door is kindof a huge pain in the ass. lol
I saw the review a few weeks ago no bad, he is kind of crazy with the hands but Chris chavez always being like that I been following for a year now since he used to post on Android and me

TV's totally understandable. Monitors, less important but still understandable (especially in portrait.)
but phones?. something you can move with your freaking hand?...
stupid reason to get your panties in a bunch.
Christ, Guy must be doped up on something because he is acting like a complete spaz. Handling the phones with no regard...flicking it, slapping and tossing it. I wonder if he drops his phone a bunch. And yeah screw viewing angles..dunno why that is part of the d*ck measuring contest.
Chris Chavez is, like, the chodiest (yeah, I did) person alive. Between his stupid hair and his terrible video cuts (which he tries to hide with his 'intentonal cuts') he is the last straw for Phandroid. I think this dude simply started out as a YouTube fanboy. If it is that easy to snag some bull**** job on a site, well, I should follow suit.
Dude is 'barely' relevant and so is the site. How much late **** are they gonna jump on? That task killer video two weeks ago? FFS. This is the most annoying Android Rep / hype of them all.
I, hereby, dub this joker; Chodey Chavez.
Dude needs to cut his hair. Yesterday. Last week.
Although .. he seems genuine ... but that only makes it worse. The most unsuspecting of chodes. EVAR.

I think crap about bloatware is overblown, no the sprint apps are not secretly running in the background wasting your battery. Seriously yes it should not be there, yes I would delete them the first chance I get, but I never think that they are wasting my battery in the background, they are never under running apps in the task manager, so no they are not secretly running, get over it.

I was able to watch a minute and 36 seconds of that crap video before I stopped it. He comes across as a tweaker and I don't mean with his phone. Maybe he is ADD. I don't know or care LOL. I think a three year old could have dont a better job editing the vid.
uhg who decided this guy was good at reviews he needs to lay off the blow! or meth. and WHAT THE **** HIS VOICE CRACKLING? AND HE CANT TALK LOL ssssttuutter muuchh..5 minutes in still no info.... haha. being a retard and not able to take a battery cover off is so frustrating lol. he must be on vzw payrole and thunderbolt feels cheap and like a knock off.
can i sue for 20 minutes of my life wasted from this tweeky weird ****? he uses the 3d function a lot probally to film him and his bf ****ing lol
I have to say up until yesterday I never understood the whole "viewing angles" thing until I played wings of.steel which is controlled by tilting the screen..it was pretty hard to see at times..still love my EVO tho
Worst review I have ever seen... Not plastic...? LOL My 3 year old daughter knows it's made of plastic!
Haha, nah he's a good guy.

I thought it was spot-on lol. Apple fans should be able to take it in good fun, especially considering all of those Windows vs Mac commercials.
This ad is great. It's not going to convince any Apple fans to purchase a non-Apple product, but it pokes fun at those lemmings who believe iAnything is a gift to mankind.
I like how it isn't carrier-specific. You see an example of each Galaxy S II model available in the US (possible excluding the Skyrocket).
i dont see anything wrong with that commercial. Everyone tries to win new customers by sweet talking them. It sometimes works but usually not. Why not try something a little 'off the beaten path'.....a little 'reverse-psychology', if you will.

3D

Is HTC abandoning ship on 3D? Are there any new phones with 3D from HTC?
I bought the EVO 3D because I'm fascinated by it. I guess I still haven't outgrown it yet.
I like watching movies in 3D. I like playing games in 3D. I taking pictures in 3D.
The reason I have not flashed a current rom with the ICS leak is I don't want to lose any of the 3D features. Its the sole reason I bought this phone. Turge's KingCobra 2.4 is about the best it gets before things start failing. I'm sticking with it at least until there is an official update of ICS and everything in 3D works.
Anyway, what is the future of 3D as far as HTC is concerned?
.
They've given up on 3D... I woundn't expect any more 3D content except just having 3D working in future updates.
Also, the 3.6 leaks have 3D fully working.

This might make the EVO 3D more valuable in the future.
I remember using my Audiovox SMT 5600 at work. I could leave it on my desk and walk anywhere in the factory up to 400 feet and the Bluetooth headset would still receive just fine.
Most, if not all of today's phones only broadcast up 30 to 40 feet.
I guess my point is that sometimes abandoning a feature is not always a good thing.

As far as Facebook, Google, SMS, Twitter or any of those bugs. I can live without all that. So that is fine.

I bought mine outright on Ebay awhile back. I just use a prepaid GSM ATT card. No Contract. I just checked Ebay and prices have not dropped at all. They are still selling new at between $350.00 - 400.00.
Can you tell where to pick up a couple at $150.00?

Au contraire, monsieur.
First of all, you have 12 sons? That seems like a feat in itself. Also, you should have put "The 3D *function* is a* gimmick; only my 12 *year old* son enjoys it."
Also, while you might not like the 3D, that is no reason to put down others who enjoys it. By your above statement, you are implying that those who enjoy the 3D function are immature; this statement is clearly untrue. While it is true that many people get headaches from watching movies or playing games in 3D, that is no reason to insult the ones who don't. So please, if you can't state your point in a less insulting manner, don't say anything at all.
On another note, your post reminded me of the "an hero" thing .

I'm proud to say that I've never owned any Apple product and I hope I never will.
Been an HTC fan for a long long time. I am a Microsoft fan also. Although I don't think I'm going with windows 8. I probably will become a full blown Ubuntu user after they stop supporting Windows 7. (which will probably be a long time from now).

Thanks! sort of proves my suspicions that it should make the phone worth more now that its off the market. People who want this 3D feature and can't get it would pay more for it.
I would absolute love to pick up two or three new GSM phones at $150.00 each. I don't think that's possible.
If someone has a link to these prices, please post it. I am sure there are some dealers out there who would love to unload such an unpopular phone.
Kind of reminds me of when I tried to purchase a Volkswagon Golf with a Diesel engine. The dealership told me that no one wants a Diesel engine. I said ok fine then you should be anxious to get rid of them. He said it would cost me an extra $5,000.00 to get it with a Diesel engine. Make any sense to you?

Okay. Trying to grasp your point.
"No one wanted them." You are dealer (just pretend, I know you're not)
You have inventory. You need to sell it off. You should want to get rid of it right? Sell it cheap and be done with it. That is business.

My apologies. I thought you were talking about the Evo 3D.
sorry.
I dunno, maybe its just me but, 3D without wearing the glasses is huge.
This is the only phone that exists that can do that. Well Lg has one but let's go there. Not a good phone.
Imagine if you whipped one of these babies out during the Salem MA witch trials. You'd be cooked on a stick.
Imagine just 20 years ago speaking of such a device. People would have laughed at you.
I remember being a truck driver and going to truck stops and having to plug into a hub to get internet access. I remember saying why can't we log on thru our cell phones? I was laughed at. They told me I was living in fantasy land. That was when Bill Clinton was President.
Remember the Honeymooners? Ralph Cramden told his wife he was waiting for 3d TV before he bought a television set. That was 1959. Before I was born.
Now we have a device that fits in your shirt pocket that will play the latest movies in HD 3D and people say oh its a gimmick. Only an immature 12 year old would be interested in such a thing.
I don't know, maybe its me. Maybe I'm missing something here.

They're also expected to decline over the next couple of years.
I hear that Troll company is also looking to ban some devices.
Gotta love karma.
I bet if a ban does happen, the ITC will pull its head out of its as$ and push for reform.
More than my dislike for Apple's litigation tactics, I hate the flawed international system when it comes to technology, software especially.

Well, it is happening. Look at their stock. They lost a lot. High point was around $700/share. Now they are in a steady decline and current share is 558. Also, it wiped out a lot of market cap. It was around $620 billion, now it's $524 billion. They are still most valuable company, but I am sure things will continue to decline for Apple.
Signs are there. iPad marketshare dropping vs Android tablets. They screamed off the top of their lungs that there will never be iPad mini, but they had to follow suit because Nexus 7, Kindle Fire, were taking a lot of marketshare. Google Play caught up to App Store in quantity of apps. iPhone 5 release only gave them 2-3% of marketshare, and mostly at expense of RIM/Microsoft.
Apple is no longer innovating. They are following others. Good read here: http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2012/10/apple-is-a-follower/. Apple Maps, the lackluster iOS 6, falling share price. I think Apple ran out of steam.

Google Play caught up to App Store in quantity of apps. iPhone 5 release only gave them 2-3% of marketshare, and mostly at expense of RIM/Microsoft.
Apple is no longer innovating. They are following others. Good read here: http://www.gizmodo.co.uk/2012/10/apple-is-a-follower/. Apple Maps, the lackluster iOS 6, falling share price. I think Apple ran out of steam.

This is pretty much what's happening right now. Not to mention, with the iOS Maps problems, and the problems with the iPhone5 coming with scratches and what not, they're just getting sloppy. Not to mention, just to try and keep up with everyone, they finally made the screen larger, but people are getting bored with it. iOS is still the same thing it's always been. People want NEW things.
And there's more. Apparently SIII outsold iPhone 4S last quarter. Granted, some people may have been waiting for iPhone 5, but numbers are numbers.

That is the reason I finally switched to Android in August. I would never go back to iOS. I should have never bought Apple.

I love success stories like this.
apple is just seeing a slow in their astronimical growth. i think this is a good thing. i believe some of these set backs will force apple to going back to innovating instead of litigating.
Android will always be more innovative with strong competition.
i agree with fernando... specially with the last part

My buddy at work is a huge apple fan. He has owned all of the Iphones and was there for the release of the Iphone5. He showed me his iphone5 and I was like wow, that looks exactly like your previous iphone... How boring.
I went from an OG evo to the ltevo and there is a world of difference between the two, but yet they are still evo's.

I don't know, connector that turns all your expensive speaker docks and clock radios into junk overnight, and usb cable with a chip in it to (atempt, already failed) to make it impossible for anyone else to make even a stupid charge cable, turning a commodity item into a special and expensive accessory. Those are pretty big changes.
