hi,
I wanna buy Htc evo view 4g from sprint before thanks giving holidays. I had few questions. I tried to look in the all sub forums as well in the past 4 hours. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Is there any Honey comb based custom rom for Evo view 4g.
Does the "view" in the rom containg name flyer + view means its for htc evo view 4g.
I have the View for Sprint and enjoy using it very much. For me it is the best tablet that I have owned (I also have tired an iPad and the original Galaxy tab). I like the 7 inch size in addition to the quality build of the device. Unfortunately there are no HC ROMs available for the device yet (or none that I have found), and yes View/Flyer is the type of device that the ROM is for (you cannot cross flash them). It would seem as thought the View is not the most popular of devices but I enjoy mine all the same. Hope this helps.

i am upgrading to an android device in 2 days. i'm pretty excited, but i need some help on my decision. basically i am down to deciding between the HTC inspire 4g and the Samsung Infuse 4g.
I really like HTC Sense more than Touchwiz, but i like the screen size and clarity on the Infuse better. so my question is when i flash a rom onto either device does it also change the UI? in other words should i just pick the phone i want to upgrade to based on the hardware and not the software? because if i upgrade based on hardware i am going with the samsung infuse, but if i go by software i am going with the Inspire.
thanks!
Samsung Galaxy S II. FTW
INTERNET MONEY!

Being an HTC inspire 4G user, I would suggest to go for HTC inspire 4G!!!
And as far as the UI is concerned, different ROM's have different UI's like the stock ROM's for HTC inspire 4G will have the HTC Sense and stuff, whereas if you flash Cyanogenmod ROM's like CM7, they do not have Sense stuff.
But the UI is ALMOST the same for most of the ROMs, as far as I know. The only difference in custom ROM's is that they have some enhancements and remove bloatwares.
Hi,
I decided to purchase a EVO 3D all of a sudden. I have a little time to decide so I want to ask some questions to the owners. Please forgive me, I know that these questions must have been asked several times on this forum and I can find answers if I search. But really I don't have time to search and read many threads for this because I have to decide in 2 or 3 hours.
1. Does it have native 3G video call support using the front cam ?
2. is it supported in new games with nice graphics ?
3. any cons to the other 3D Android phone (LG Optimus 3D) ?
4. is there a CPU comparison to check what is EVO 3D's place among all other Android phones (specially Tegra 2) ?
5. Currently there is not ICS Rom developed for this ROM (I mean with all features). Do you believe we'll have a fully working ICS ROM in near future ?
6. Does it have a good community ?
7. LG Optimus 3D has a nice 3D UI, but EVO 3D does not have such GUI. Is it hard to develop a 3rd party 3D UI ? a 3D launcher maybe ?
Thanks.
I'd appreciate any help...
Not to be terribly rude, but you have over 700 posts, have been a member since 2007, and cannot search to find these answers on your own. They're out there and it doesn't take but a few minutes, not hours.
Short answer...better than most any other phone out there IMO, and definitively better than any LG. Tegra 2 is overrated also.
there are several parameters when you consider to buy a new phone. and sometimes it's better to get answers directly from the owners.
anyway, I've lost my chance to purchase the phone.
I'm thinking; is it really hard to give short answers to just 7 questions about a phone that you own ?
it could save my hours digging to get all that info.
AND; really some of my questions are not answered in these threads...
1. Does it have native 3G video call support using the front cam ?
*This question depends on the network as much as it does on the phone. I've never bothered to try on sprint but I doubt it as I see no way to do it.
2. is it supported in new games with nice graphics ?
*What new games... I only play angry birds.
3. any cons to the other 3D Android phone (LG Optimus 3D) ?
*I can't think of any con's to the phone other than mine being s-on. I don't own an LG nor have I ever owned an LG so I can't comment on their phones.
4. is there a CPU comparison to check what is EVO 3D's place among all other Android phones (specially Tegra 2) ?
*Really I don't notice the CPU being much faster than my Samsung Galaxy.
That's all I know.

I have not had trouble running any games from the market. CF3D program also allows you to play tegra games which it handles nicely.
3. any cons to the other 3D Android phone (LG Optimus 3D) ?

I think it has slightly better specs than the LG offering compare them side by side on pdadb.net

HTC is releasing an official ICS update next year for Evo 3d. after that im sure there will be many cooked ICS roms from may different people. Otherwise you can check cyanogen mod see what they are doing.

Yes XDA is one of the best around.

Yes LGs 3D UI looks nice but is only a small part of the phone. SPB is working on incorprating a 3D option into their launcher, but at the moment its experimental (BETA) and has a few shortfalls but is interesting anyway.
Thanks.[/QUOTE]
thank you, hungry81.
I've already lost my chance to buy it.
but anyway, you say that you didn't have any performance issues with any games. some people are complaining about performance with
GTA3 which was released on friday.
did you try that ?
1.Games... Sorry never installed hardcore games (only built in spiderman 3d game_LOOKS VGOOD TO ME)... But with the evo 3d brand processor it will definitely can play future games
2. Native front camera , yes it works i use skype and ym.. speed depends on network (mine is boost part of sprint netwrk,kinda laggy but works,best if wifi). I hope i answered ur Q On this one
3. Evo vs lg? Never had lg, but i read on magazine (pc magazine i think). Evo 3d vs samsung galaxy s2, galaxy beats evo by amoled screen and just a little bit in processor but thats about it... So if lg brand u wanted is better than galaxy s2 then u know the answer...

Dear all
I started with my Android experience about two years ago (a little more I guess) with the HTC Desire.
Now I have a HTC Desire HD (was lucky enough to win one) which is in use.
So, that means I only have real "experience" with HTC phones. Everything else is either from the phone shop looking at it and touching it for a few moments, but not really using it or the internet.
While I like both - the HTC Desire and Desire HD - I find the HD jus the maximum of size I would like to cope with. The Desire was in my humble opinion perfectly sized. Not too big, not too small.
Now, both phones will not see any updates (the HTC Desire is now somewhere in 2.2 and the HD got 2.3.5 or something) anytime soon, certainly not 4.x.
Is there a phone out there (I will not limit myself to HTC) around the size of the HTC Desire (3.7 inch display) which will get 4.x?
My search on the internet revealed many interesting ones, but all of them are at least the size of the HD (most of the time even larger!). Is there really no android phone out there with that size? Are they all getting newer AND bigger?
Before you ask: Yes, modding is an option. However, I was just unlucky and surely stupid enough that I can not manage to get CM working on the HTC Desire. While I think I managed to root it, the loading of the new mod fails and I get back to stock all the time...but that is a subject of another time
Thanks a lot
Regards

Hmm... i believe i would just wait and see what comes out. The release of Android 4.0 devices just began and a lot of new devices are coming. So for right now, i would just stay with what you have till some new phones are released.
Please hit the thank you button if i helped!
Maybe picking up an unlocked Samsung/Google Nexus S is a possibility?
We have one here and I'm impressed with how fast and stable it is with Android 4.0. Plus, as a Nexus, it keeps on being supported with the latest/greatest updates as Google makes them available.
Hey guys,
I know the nexus version of the HTC One (T-mobile) is coming out in a few days but was wondering whether there is anything I would be missing out on if I had the nexus version.
Even upon doing lots of research, it seems like Sense 5 is very good but I wanted your guy's experiences. (ex: one of the links I read:
http://www.pocket-lint.com/news/121382-htc-one-google-edition-vs-htc-one-what-s-the-difference)
Is there any advantage of waiting for the nexus version of the HTC One (T-mobile) and the current version? What are the things I should consider?
I was looking around at the ROMs for the T-Mobile HTC One, and none of them seemed to have Sense 5...so is sense really that bad / worse than stock?
Thanks so much!
You'll miss so much if you buy the regular Tmobile One! You'll miss not having Zoe, blinkfeed, wifi calling, htc remote, and all the sense improvements that you can easily disable by simply flashing a different rom...
I think it's silly that they made a vanilla One, you get the same phone but none of the surprisingly nice software that HTC made for it. It's like buying a "special" pair of shoes, and by "special" I mean they don't come with shoelaces.
I have used the HTC remote feature several times once set up works perfectly, also I don't think the camera will be as good seeing as technically it is 4.3mp with out the software enhancements it might be crappy as well the WiFi calling comes in handy so much and I had the nexus 4 on T-Mobile HTC one in my opinion is smoother than stock which is hard to find they did really well with every aspect of this phone

Hm.
But I was worried about the fact that updates are super slow to come from Tmobile.
We aren't even at 4.2.2 yet and if Sense 5 is so great how come we don't have Sense 5 roms in the development sections? (side note, what is "android development" vs "ORIGINAL android development").
I figured if Sense 5 was so good and better than stock, then we would have lots of Sense 5 roms.
Thanks!
There are a lot of sense 5 roms,And good ones I've been using sense 5 roms running 4.2.2 and couldn't be happier,a few good ones to check out are (venom)vipor, trickdroid, sentinel,opencoin plus quite a few more these are just the ones I ran and use the venom as my daily driver and love it so much this Rom is so customizable it'll blow your mind and stable,fast I just live it plus great dev abd support again I wouldnt give up my ir,camera software,BoomSound plus more for vanilla android

I see...do the M7 roms work or are you referring to our roms in the T-mobile HTC One sections? (I guess when I searched the titles and front pages of the roms, I didn't find anything when I searched "sense").

Well, you can do what I did... and I really like Sense 5 with one exception: we can only scroll left to right, and right to left. No continuous scroll. So I installed Nova Launcher, the sunbeam live wallpaper, and an analog clock. Look and feel is like GPE, but I still have an icon to get into blink feed, And I still have Zoe and Video highlights.
Try it.

I've been using the iPhone since the 3G and am ready for something new. I've been looking at the HTC One and Samsung GS4. During my reviews of the HTC One, I read that HTC was in a financial meltdown. If this is indeed true, how would this affect the support/future updates for the HTC One?
I'm not familiar with Android yet and whether one can just put the latest custom ROM onto the device and have the latest version of Android or if the manufacturer plays any key role in these updates. Please advise. Thanks.
