A friend of mine sent me this link for a new 3D shell that's in development. Check it out, it looks pretty cool.

Looks nice! But I hope they have themes for it, a bit too childish/iOSish for me.
Cartoonish but very cool and well made just take away the IOS app look and cartoon like widgets and it would be BADASS.

There's another thread on this. Touted right though, it has a Fisher price, "my first launcher" look to it. It will likely end up like spb, neat concept, but lacking functionality and customization

Spd was the biggest waste of money and probably my most hated app.....including the free ones. In my opinion of course.

Well I'm glad someone got their $15 worth. For me it consistently froze and since I use my phone for work, it wasn't an option for me to cripple my phone.

hmmm, had it give me the "shell didn't open properly, do you want to retry" error maybe 4-5 times total. Other times it had to reload because android would close it for memory (when playing games). Had it on winmo, main reason I got if for android (and the big discount).

I got it because of all the great winmo reviews. Just didn't live up to what I needed. Trust me, I wish it did work for me. I even tried three different times over the 8 months I had my TBolt.

Don't mean to necrobump but I figured some of you would like to know that a general release date has been announced. It will be released sometime this month through the Market. Really looking forward to this, hope it works well.
Cool idea to show off to people but it would get old fast

This threads about the TSF Shell Pro. You can checkout their stuff here: http://www.tsfui.com/shell/
It looks like they are supposed to have their first release on the market sometime this month.
This was finally released, though I don't think I'll be getting it til they update, it's nice, but doesn't have al the features the videos show off right now. Also the main site is down...

Finally pulled the trigger on the 3D, and I have been reading quite a bit on it. I wanted to know from you lucky folks having had some time with it already, what is your favorite part about the phone? What features caught you off guard, overall impression of the phone? Looks like some people are getting stellar battery life, and coming from the Evo OG, I have high expectations. (Running Synergy on the OG now, and I am digging Sense 3.0!)
Applications that REALLY belong on the Evo, and anything I should REALLY avoid.
I have been looking at the rooting community pretty closely, and it sounds like there is a wee bit o hate and discontent, but I'm sure it will settle down if and when the goodness happens with permanent root.
Thanks guys!
ALSO - What applications have you found to be PERFECT on this phone? I just snagged up a Nook Color just to flash MIUI on it, so I do have my flashing solution in the meantime...
Congrats man! You'll enjoy it, sounds like you've been keeping up on the threads so you know kinda what to expect. 3D is awesome, and I'm an old guy compared to most on here, and it amazes me. Hell, I even purchased Spider-Man and I am not a gamer, but it's a good one I think with some nice depth...really fun. My suggestion is to try to not look for faults in the device, just enjoy it as it is a huge upgrade to the OG and hopefully very soon we'll be some ROM flashing fools! As you can probably tell people are getting pretty edgy and a lot of wars going on here, too much time on our hands, so hopefully real soon lol! So welcome aboard, you're gonna love it!
A breath of fresh air Welcome aboard! Great phone, you will enjoy the heck out of it. Thanks for the enthusiasm.

Lol your rooted sense 3.0 experience won't compare with this device stock. It will be better on your evo 4g until this device is rooted. Just so you won't come compare the experience.
Its a great phone, you won't be disappointed
Camera freezes are the biggest thing for me to worry right now.
Otherwise, this phone is awesome.
If you're not a flashaholic then its the best phone you can buy right now. Even if you a flashaholic, you cannot the deny the dual core 1.2 GHz and 1 GB ram balls this beast has.

No way man, coming from the 4G running sense 3 the 3D blows it away man. Add in the two chichitec batteries and my battery life is close to double what my 4g was getting with a similar setup.

Man welcome to hell this phone sux huge balls 3D is bad really bad.

Idk what these guys are talking about this is such a Downgrade from the OG. If no permanent root before 7/24 I'm taking it back.....
Now that you've heard all the bs, this is the best phone i've ever had my hands on and 2011 I had most of the new hot smart phones my favorite was the OG Evo. This phone is a keeper for sure the 3D is wonderful the phone is completely fast as hell and I really don't have any complaints.

I did notice that. Fortunately the Synergy Rom is providing some meantime amusement. I'll have to look into the spideman game, I've been such a nut for Plants v Zombies, abduction 2, and quite a few others I was lucky enough to get from that Amazon free application deal. Thanks for the words, and I'm pretty sure I'll be enjoying it!

SIDENOTE:
Do you have the T-Mo Espresso still? My Fiance has that, and I really haven't found a Sense based rom that is really stable... You know of any? She's on one of the latest nightlies of Cyanogenmod, but I have not been able to find a dumbed-down-enough method of S-Off, so it is still S-On, and I have to do that "update" anytime I want to enter the custom recovery. What method did you use for S off? Seen any good sense Roms?

Now THAT is good to hear. Temp-root still sounds good to me. If they've gotten this thing to 1.8mhz without a meltdown, I'd assume it can take some pretty decent frequencies consistently. Time will tell.

Hey just wanted to add that I noticed you said "finally pulled the trigger". Good pun considering you just bought a "Shooter" haha....
I'll tell you what really caught me off guard was the little things they implemented in sense 3.0. On my OG EVO I had to get different apps to do things that are now built-in. It was a welcome surprise. The back speaker disappointed me a little at first, but I weened myself off of it and I'm used to it now. Overall its an awesome phone, but you don't need to hear it from me... I really feel like I have the top of the line for now, and it seems that its only gonna get better.

Well that is good to hear about the 3.0, I've grown pretty accustomed to Sense 3.0 Elements on the OG!
It IS the top of the line, for now, as is all electronic hardware. But I think it will be able to hold up for a full year. Imagine, soon we will be looking back at the Shooter wondering how we ever got along with such a slow 3D phone, especially when 5G and 6G is all the rave... lol
I'll have it in the next day or two... Xmas coming early!
Welcome...you enjoy the speed of this demon....don't you... I miss synergy also but we are shortly ( hopefully ) getting custom roms to take care of that and others that could not be run on the evo 4g. You will notice a few things different and they what ever they are I found are quickly forgotten the more you use the phone. If you haven't already...temp root...download barnacle for wifi tethering and what ever you use...get your titanium and you will be all set. There is a lot of bickering around here...that is true...but one thing I noticed..it is the new users who have no idea what's up come in here and start them...or haters coming in and bashing the 3vo saying it is not this or that( most of the time, they don't even own one).. Or long time community members with a agenda..you are right..once perm root comes along with unlocked phones..it will settle down and become more positive.
Now First off Don't get me wrong, I'm Not starting this thread with intentions to Sh.t on the EVO 3D at All!
"I Personally Love it, and think it was
Definitely Well Worth The Wait!"
With that said...
Like with just about Anything in life, People are Always going to find Something or Someone... To Single out and find whatever Negative there're able to dig up in order to Complain about the Littlest Petty Sh.t they can think of, and I Know unless the Phones actually Customized for them, There's Always going to be something they would Change if they Could...
But Again, I'm Not at all starting this thread to Bash the EVO 3D! I'm Just simply listing certain features I guess I Wish were maybe a little more User Friendly (In My Opinion) for Everyone that may Agree with Me...
1.) I'd have to say coming from the CDMA HTC Hero, I Definitely Miss having the Trackball for "Easy" Scrolling!
2.) Well I suppose this is Almost the same as the first but... In My Opinion since they (HTC) did away with the Trackball they should of at least gave us a Keyboard with Directional Arrows! Especially for the people like me that Always seem to find their self having to Edit a Typo. It's Almost like Surgery having to Drag the pointer, either that "OR" just Try and get Lucky enough to Touch the Perfect spot between to Small ass Letters!
3.) I'm Not Feeling the Stupid Battery Cover! I basically have to Wrestle with it and say a Prayer to God that i Won't Break it to pieces when I Snap it off,
Get it... SNAP it off! Lol...
4.) I Hate the fact that in Settings/SDCard Storage there's even a Option to... Mount/UnMount the Micro SD when its Totally Impossible to Do either on the EVO 3D Without Removing the Battery First! "If Anyone figures out a way Please Post it Here for me!"
5.) I Don't like the Location of the Charger Port! HTC... What was Wrong with "Perfectly Center" on the Bottom? Wasn't Broke till You guys Fixed it! Lol...
6.) Now Maybe I just Don't Handle or Except Change well, But I just Can't seem to get use to the Volume Up/Down buttons on the Right side if the phone, Instead of the Left like on my Poor Retired Hero! Ugh, I Miss it Already...
7.) For whatever reason, While I'm Typing a Text or "Double Clicking" on a Web page to Zoom In/Out it Jumps to a completely Different Spot!
8.) Another thing I came across is when I try to Click the Up Arrow on the Keyboard to Capitalize a letter it almost Always selects the (Z) button instead of Capitalizing the Damn word! The letters (O) and (P) also Do the same to me!
9.) Finally, Last but Not Least...
Give a Damn Option to Un-Install those Pointless System Clogging Apk's like StockMarket, Twitter, Facebook, etc....
I Understand they made it into the System files for... $$$ Purposes but at least give the User the Option to Install Facebook, or whatever else really Isn't Necessary on the Own!
10.)
** If You Noticed I Stopped At 9**
So Anyone that's Willing, Fill in Your 10...
Or Simply just "My" 10th!
*Maybe, If there's Enough people Leaning in a certain Direction on a certain Subject, The EVO 3D Developers can kind of Reference the Infomation and Somehow Incorporate it into their Future Builds!*
"Obviously Not the Physical Buttons,etc."
if your that unhappy with the phone why would you keep it ?
Just sell it and get something you do like.

I'm Not Unhappy with the Phones Internal Features... Mainly just some Externals! Plus I Don't have that many Options seeing I'm Locked in with Sprint again, and I like the whole Sense look!
Like I said I Still Love the Phone, its Fast as Hell and a All Around Great phone but I'm also Considering its Fairly New and the Longer its around the Better it'll get with Development!
No kickstand and charging port location are my only gripes. I don't think ANYONE will ever have a phone they r 100% happy with.
Although my EVO 4G was pretty close to being perfect.

Meh. I was diehard HTC. I had the hero, then to the evo4g(while always yearning for pure Google). Evo 3d wasn't for me so in may I went nexus s.
I say root it, flash 2.3.4/5 and be done.
If you like sense, root the stock and delete all that junk.
I loved and hated that trackball, I finagled new hero's cause I didn't like the white trackball becoming tinged. Honestly, the evo3d, physically, seems a bit utilitarian to me.

I guess I'm just kind of Hoping to bump into a Suggestion I Havent thought of!
But from what I see the EVO 3D's kind of my Best Choice, at least for Now...
I love this phone more then my dog (he chewed my chef clogs last night) but I miss the kick stand, I like the charger on the bottom of the phone and I have a lot of typos due to the smaller keyboard (maybe I just have big thumbs)
With that being said, I can HONESTLY say there is not another phone on the market I'd rather have. And YES that includes SGSII. (Touchwiz blows)
Peace and love

My only gripe is that the camera is totally useless due to the ridiculous shutter lag (delay between when you take the shot and when the camera actually snaps the shot). No combination of settings can change it: shutter lag is always 0.5 to 1.0 second... sometimes more. Other than that, the phone is near perfect and I'm hoping HTC will put some emphasis on fixing the dud of a camera in the next update.

Have you had the Lag with both 2D and 3D? Tell you the Truth I know the Camera was one of the Hooks to Reel everyone in but i Haven't even tried to take a Picture yet! But good to know about the Shutter lag!
Thanx...
1. It should be dual 8M camera rather than just dual 5M
2. Yeah, give me back keyboard arrows
3. 3rd party equalizer not working on stock music player
4. Both SIM and sdcard should be accessible without removing the back cover
5. I love the camera button, but is it necessary to make 2D/3D switch a physical button also?

Convenient that.
I call fake. The About screen strangely lists "Icecream Sandwich", but on every Android I've played with it would list the numerical designator (such as "2.3.4"). Things also appear more skinned than stock (I would hope Google has a bit better sense of graphic design than what I'm seeing there).

If that was real ICS, you think HTC is going to switch desktops from the HTC Sense one to the ICS one?
I doubt it but it would be cool to see them giving an option.
SUCH BS..
They wouldn't wipe it, they'd send out corporate security to buy the phone back and investigate the theft...
Wow. SO MUCH IMPROVEMENT. Real or not, widgets in the app drawer is nice. Also the home button feature is swagged out. I cant imagine CM8.

Sense. You mean that thing from HTC that has the biggest security flaw ever seen on a smart phone? No thanks, I'll pass. If you want a Sense like UI, go with Launcher Pro and Beautiful Widgets.
i do like the sense interface. and the privacy leak was from an apk that could be removed if i remember reading right

Not hating, just FACT. With a security hole like the one reported you might as well post all your info on your Facebook wall. Don't get me wrong, I prefer Sense over TW and Blur but not enough to leave a phone wide open like that. There is workarounds but that hole never should have made to production.

The locked bootloader is the reason for this. That is also why you are seeing the developer migration from HTC to Samsung.
Look at the OG Droid. That thing had tons of dev support. I, for one would love to see Papa Google take webtop and use it as a launchpad for Chrome OS. That would be awesome.

ill be honest there is 2 reasons why i am even here. 1 ACS (at teh time) didnt have anyone even planning on coming to the photon. 2nd, webtop.. it means in 3-4 years i can still have a fully functional htpc running at a very cheap electrical cost (much cheaper than my xbox 360) or browsing the web or whatever.. while in 3-4 years that brand new shiney SGS2.. will be traded in for the next hunk of plastic

I fired up webtop for the first time today and while there is a "betaness" to it I'm very impressed. I am probably going to buy a small, beautiful Samsung television to run this on and start incorporating its use more and more.
Shabby, you seem knowledgeable, maybe you could tell me...
1. Can we extend USB ports with a port expander?
2. Do you know of any printing solutions? I know Kodak won't play with Linux but I'm pretty sure HP is in, so perhaps plug and play? But if so...I don't know of any Android office suites that even have a printing option.
Also, sorry for posting off topic, but my questions are directly related to your statements.

USB hubs are supported. I've even had 120GB ext HDD full of videos connected via a hub, granted it took forever to index but it worked.
I have a couple different printers here at work but haven't had the time to play with them yet as I'm still trying to get together a full feature set for webtop.
*now back to our regularly scheduled program
I have the thunderbolt with sense 3.0 its neat nice little features on it and such but this phone is great on battery(thunderbolt has great life too) for a reason its simplistic and such of the matter reminds me of the nexus brand.
Also Shabby thanks for joining the photon family

Htc's sense isn't open source last time I checked. They frown upon use on non htc devices. Download a theme, a launcher theme, wallpaper and flip clock and be done with it. Then be thankful about how much smoother and faster "Motorola's ui " is

Its not they gave beautiful widgets a C&D last year for their clock and they had to redesign it
I was on the Market and I came across this new launcher. The video is unreal. The price is crazy @$17, especially with a number of the functions in the video not working at the moment. I just wanted to see if anyone was willing to give this a try, and if they were able to get it to work on the Atrix. I sent the dev an e-mail to ask if it is compatible. I have read that there are numerous amounts of FCs associated with this launcher.
At any rate, take a look at this video.
Here is a link to the Android Market --> TSF Shell in the Android Market
I honestly think it looks hideous. Nothing special just a different way of switching screens and a couple of widgets.

Who the hell is going to pay $17 for a launcher?
The launcher loads ok but gives fcs along the way, motion is VERY smooth! Music and memo widgets market says are not compatible. It has great potential but indeed the price will hold most ppl back from buying it.
this looks like it might be from the guys who made bumptop for the windows desktop
here is the youtube link to the desktop software

I had a hard time giving $15 for shell, but i did, I'm not giving that much for a launcher ever again! Just not worth it compared to the excellent cheaper launchers and the free launchers that are out there.

Haha 17$? For a launcher? What are you smoking?
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
To expensive to buy, IMO..I don't know why the sell that too expensive, an people may think: "well is their app, they may ask whatever they want" but for example SPB Shell, $15 and a 100,000 downloads, if they drop their price to $5 they may need to sell 3 times to reach their goal, but for a luncher like that they may do it quickly because lots of users wants to give a try.
$17 dollars? No way.

I can not see the tsf shell in the market... anyone with Atrix can see it?

I was just able to do a search on my Atrix in the Market for TSF Shell, and it brought it up.
I'm on AT&T in the U.S.
17$ for a launcher? No thanks. You can keep it.

Maybe the problem is that i'm on "the darkside"...
This launcher is absolutely freaking amazing!
It is the first launcher ever for Android, and I am not exaggerating, that has iPhone kind of smoothness.
The irony is that this launcher has all those fancy 3D transitions and animations and it's still absolutely perfectly silky smooth throughout.
While simple basic launchers like ADW or LP still get laggy around the edges at times.
This just goes to show that we don't need epic new quad core hardware for our phones, we need devs that know how to optimize for the hardware we already have.
Tegra 2 is more than enough to run anything currently on Android without issues.
Kudos to the devs for the professionalism and their hard work. This really is an amazing smoothest-ever launcher.

I was thinking literally the exact same thing. I guess this isnt Google, but didnt Google buy or absorb bumptop?
Second paragraph http://bumptop.com/
So far, I have had 0 problems with this launcher. I'd recommend this, but the price is a little expensive. This is just my opinion, and to each their own.

I've tryed it for the past 2 days, no problems at all with the launcher, is beautiful and really fast, but it slows a little all the rest of the apps...
p.s. And i hate the floating icons, i prefer to have a grid...

Indeed. That was one of the things that bugged me. OCD got the best of me on that. I spent a good 10 minutes straightening my screen up last night.

Can't you select the icons you want arranged and create a grid...in the video it looks like you can resize a box with your icons in it.
