It's finally days, not months, "DAYS" away to having what we've all been waiting for. "S-OFF". Thanks to Team Win for finding a temp root solution, we now have a permanent method on the way thanks to the AlphaRev Development Team. Now that everyone has jizzed their jeans due to the good news and now even more comfortable about are situation with not being in complete control of are devices. Now its time to have a little honest fun and point the fingers at the non early adopters that wouldn't dare to keep this wild animal for a phone for 30 days. Who got the boo boo face because they returned their EVO3D? Of course HTC released that the were unlocking the bootloaders in the upcoming month or so, but I believe a lot of people weren't satisfied with the comment due to the fact that we wouldn't know what to expect (warranty void, watermark, blah, blah). Some returned the Shooter to go with another handset due to HTC's run around BS. Most with a sense of urgency to return their phones, and a definite mindset that the E3D experience would be nothing like the OGEVO. Please step up and tell the whole dedicated E3D population how dumb You you feel for making that decision.

After all the hype leading up to the E3D, there will always be those who get buyer's remorse when the thing doesn't do backflips out of the box. Especially with crazy fast benchmarks from the upcoming GS2.
Nevertheless, it is a great device about to get better.
pew pew LOL
on a serious note...I was going to return mine, the locked bootloader was to much for me to handle. Or in the beginning it was, as the days pasted I became more comfortable with my 3d. I then decided to keep it, and if I wanted I would use my wifes 4G, lol Once HTC announced the unlocking with a ETA I was even more set on keeping it. The AlphaRevX thing is awesome, I would rather have S-Off via devs then HTC, so no Boo Boo face here! lol
I tried switch back to the 4G a time or two. I would hold both phones side by side and the colors of the 3D kept me from swapping...
When they get s-off and root and cm7 makes a rom for this phone will all the 3d capabilities be available still?

Ha Ha, That pic fits this thread perfectly. As far as what you said Mitch, I totally agree. See my thing was a lot of people didn't have faith in the devs to crack this thing open. Well not so much of not having faith but not having patience. With a lot of good devices right around the corner I understand how the decision @ hand can be easily influenced.
BUT, what about the ones who was just straight up troll happy, dissing this phone to the dirt. I've no you seen the post, ("this phone is crap, I have light leakage, this is my fourth device and my 3D buttons still rattles, we will never have s-off because the dev teams have a life besides android, but i want what I want now, Team Win doesn't update their Twitter."), you know stuff like that.
Where are those brave fools because I won't to hear from them. Who wished they had stayed on the bandwagon?

From my personal experience with both sense and aosp (Bigger AOSP fan) I would have to say no. I think you might have to stay with sense for a little while then aosp will come with all the goodies.

Dude, u went into this whole E3D thing straight raw. I sold my EVO on launch date of the 3D. Initially that wasn't my plan. I wanted to keep the OG until 3D got full root. Basically it didn't happen that way but i got what i wanted. Not being able to customize my handset is leaving my a little lonely but this is my first time ever anticipating root for a new device so its kind of exciting. I bought the OG on launch date as well but didn't really discover root until September of that year. Anyway by me selling my OG EVO to sprint and not being able to get it back (by the way, it was rooted with CM7, WOOT!). I was just stuck with the 3D even if I didn't like it.
My ''xDU4L C0R3 SH00T3Rx'' shot you down in 3D!
i felt the phone was worthy of keeping even with a locked bootloader. i just didn't want to be locked for 2 years on a crappy data network. it's been bad for over a month... and the day after i return my 3d the data service comes back better than it's ever been.
i hope with days he doesnt mean 2 weeks... i want to learn if the phone can play tegra2 games using chainfire 3d...if not then im going to have serious doubts to buy this phone. but when im back from holidays i AM going to purchase a new phone.
Man I love title of this thread
Locked & Loaded
This thing is going to run Tegra2 games just fine once we get full root.

That pic fits a lot of threads around here lately.
i am having a horrible experience with my 3VO. first one had speaker problems with volume going up and down, second one has freezes and then i have to pull the battery... almost three times a day. but im gonna stay with 3VO. hopefully i manage to get my second one replaced soon.
I ain't going to lie. I have a boo hoo face. I returned it monday only to c the s off pics on tuesday.
My reason? If I was going to wait til september (if that, at all) for an unlocked bootloader, then I should explore my options at that point (nexus prime or sgs2 or 3d).
Only thing that turned me off about the phone was the low speakerphone. Otherwise, it was awesome sauce. But I needs the roots so I may apply proper arabic configuration (right to left script language). And then use the phone for what it was meant to be used for. And that's internet, facebooking, n twittering (all of which I do constantly on a heavy basis... Trying to c if my family members are alive in the mid east during the arab spring has been a hectic full time job).
But I'm not too worried. My dad has one n I will root that thing hard. I was thinking of even buying one for my sister, seeing as how it performs great, even stock.

you fail... your experience of the last few months using the Evo4G made you think that you are losing features going to AOSP. All the frameworks will be there. And 3D is into the apps themselves. So yes, of course 3D will work.

Yes, though maybe not right away. Cyanogen mentioned a few weeks ago that Qualcomm released the 3D drivers and that the CM team had everything they needed to utilize the 3D hardware pending the bootloader was unlocked.

I agree. (although my data service is very iffy). The SGS2 is a great phone. However, can you imagine the benchmarks of a Myn, Calkulin, or other rom with a Netarchy kernel on the EVO 3D?
I would imagine that a true ASOP rom on the EVO 3D would walk toe 2 toe with the SGS2.
And, if Apple has their way, this may be a collectors phone as the last HTC phone on Sprint sold in the US... Bastards.
No boo boo face. Happy face...

Wondering if they are a WIP? Thanks
They won't add as much battery life this time around. The go evo charged to 100% and dropped down to 90% before charging. The eve 3d charges to 100% then drops to 95% before charging again.
5% is still 5%. I'd love a SBC kernel.
I agree. I'd love to have one too. I like that it doesnt drop 10% but if you don't catch the phone at 100% it's already discharging immediately. I want to take my phone off charge at 100%.

It will never erase the ROM off of the phone (or default it to stock), if you want the stock ROM, you have to install it.
It only wiped the data accompanied with the ROM you have on the phone.

I've been running mine @ full speed for the past few days to monitor how battery life is effected. The second core by default can run up to stock speeds (or max overclock speed) whenever it needs to, but having it online all the time with 594MHz max seems like a good trade-off to me! I may just go right back down to it.

Well Cayniarb (Tiamat Developer) in detail said it isn't. He said it would basically cause ware on your processor after a while (that's the long explanation in a nutshell). Cayniarb is coming out with a kernel that would enable us to use both are cores at the same time safely, but until he does this is my alternative.

Yeah it is a good trade off, especially after the scare from Cayniarb in the tiamat thread. 594000 MHz on my second core has my phone just where I need it. I guess it also keeps the "ware on my processor" at a minimum.
Big ups to Cayniarb by the way for the information. I don't want him dropping by this thread thinking I'm dissing him and his knowledge. I got mad respect for that guy. I mean, I am using his kernel.

I don't want to shoot down another awesome dev's opinion but I treat this like I treat SBC kernels. You had camps from both sides defending their opinions, and in the long run, SBC has yet to claim any lives or damage any phones with valid proof, the same as this. I've been running with my second core enabled for a month. I know it's probably not long enough to really claim victory, but it counts. Nothing has gone wrong, or even looked like it was going to go wrong. I think it's pretty safe to say that this won't cause any long term damage to the phone. If by some miracle it does shorten its life, It's not doing anything that overclocking your phone won't accomplish as well. I'll probably have another phone long before I see any 'damage' to this phone.

That's funny how you took that thought right out of my brain.
I've even felt like that with SBC. It was said using SBC kernels would screw up your battery, but I was like "Ummm, so what." Ill have the E3D by the time that would happen.

Thanks Rocky and Freeza for your responses. Appreciate it. Will give this a try

Well Cayniarb (Tiamat Developer) in detail said it isn't. He said it would basically cause ware on your processor after a while (that's the long explanation in a nutshell). Cayniarb is coming out with a kernel that would enable us to use both are cores at the same time safely, but until he does this is my alternative.

Hey rock, where is his post so I can read what he says. I like knowing what others think about this. I wouldn't change it but would like to see his side. My only question is if it is bad to run both our cores why not for the other phones out there that come as true dual cores? Anyway, post that thread link if ya can. Thanks

If you go to this thread a user named Cobraboy85 recently quoted that statement made by Cayniarb. Which you should see because in green it says recently posted by Cayniarb.
Bassicly there's asynchronous and non asynchronous. Are dual core processors are asynchronous. They are made for one core to do the work and kick in the other while its stressed. I don't know why its like that, leave that question for the pros.

hows it affect battery?
I haven't noticed anything too bad, but I have a 4000 Mah extendo so its hard to tell.

I'm not a professional at this kind of stuff. But the response from cy was a little vague in my opinion. That's why i asked. Logic tells me if the second core is designed to turn on, then its not a problem having it always on. It makes no sense that it is not designed to handle constant online status. The only detrimental effect I can see is maybe it getting a little warm and draining battery faster than normal. But your phone has safety features built into it to prevent it from doing permanent damage... it will shut down... had this happen once due to heat... under very heavy use.... let it sit for a few minutes while off.... good to go.
The argument over dual cores ruining your phone, and dual cores not making your phone process tasks any faster just sounds like a bunch of bro science to me anyways. Fact is, the system processes tasks faster when it is under heavy load with the second core on, therefore it will process tasks faster with both of them on all the time because when it comes under load it will already be available. This is evident in browsing web pages, and doing heavy multi tasking. I have tested this theory by doing just that... running as many tasks as I can, with cpu1 online and set at default. Phone is more responsive when it is online and the system is under load.
If it ruins my phone, then oh well, that's what insurance is for. And I have been doing this for a while with no issues. We'll see I guess. But for now I agree with freeza. Its all speculation. Not knocking anybody, just telling you my experience with it.
Running both cores, my phone still hyberenates in deep sleep mode 95% of the down time. So it seems to be functioning properly I would say. Not bugging out and locking up or freezing or runnin particularly hot. Just running fine.

Definite plus one!
I don't understand how a phone can be designed for the second core to sporadically be put online. In that case, I could just run benchmarks all day (which also causes the system to turn the second core online) and that could potentially ruin my phone? Doubtful!
The TouchPad folks have already been making kernels that enable dual core mode all the time and that uses a similar chipset. There hasn't been any reported failures or damaged units because of it. In fact, I've been running said kernel on my TouchPad since the day I got it and it's been running like a champ.
