holy crap! thats all i have to say lol. i was seriously about to give up on HTC after getting the amaze but after seeing this i think i change my mind.
IMO, this is how the Galaxy nexus should have looked.
"4.7-inch 720p Super LCD2 display" super LCD"2"? i already like my screen more than the super AMOLED, cant imagine how this will look. camera has dual shutter mode, the phone has 32gb of storage, its thin, but good build quality. i think when HTC said they will focus on quality this year rather than quantity they meant it.
it looks like they mixed the sensation XL and mytouch 4g haha. not a bad mix though. if this has the tegra 3 i will probably upgrade, if its another quadcore i will probably not.
Will you guys be upgrading? or do you think our hardware is good as it is?
Edit: updated OP with video

Wow if its for tmo ill upgrade sorry amaze
Sent from my HTC Amaze 4G using Xparent Green Tapatalk
ill probably upgrade when the price lowers and its all around craigslist. its never good to get a device right when it first releases. learned that with the mytouch 4g.
since it does have the tegra 3 that makes me really interested: better battery life and like 60% more GPU performance = amazazing. i will enjoy my amaze while i can though there isnt anything wrong with it and im happy with it.
It says on the spec sheet where the display is that it has 2d corning gorilla glass this must be the new one right?

Yes, Cornering announced a new type of gorilla glass that is just as strong but thinner not too long ago. i guess this is one of the first devices to have it. thats why it must be so thin with good build

you mean s-on right? im sure a lot of people wont care considering it has the latest OS. even though google is probably working on jellybean as of now by the time its released it wouldnt matter im sure.
i hate what HTC is doing with the whole s-on/s-off but that doesnt prevent them from making some of the best devices. and the fact that they are doing the whole "quality rather than quantity" will make a lot of people either stay with them or go back. just because samsung has unlocked their bootloaders doesnt make their devices better either.
i would rather have a device better out of the box then a device that is not. and this looks like a solid phone

I get what you're saying, but what I don't understand is how HTC justifies launching all these high-end devices and not really providing proper support for all of them. The Amaze is my first device from HTC and considering that it's a pretty high-end device, I expected a lot more support from HTC and not having to deal with problems like S-On, light bleed, etc
wow just wow, but we still need S-off...
Anyone have a guess of how much this will cost off contract?

I guess thats why they are taking the amaze off the tmobile shelves since this is the last phone they made when they used to do quantity or quality. after they ship the ville and this one it will probably be game changes for HTC if they actually support them well and what not. if they do not and go back to their old ways im probably leaving android all together. the only other android company i like is Sony and they still have yet to release their dual core phones with last years hardware. they will be solid devices but they are still behind the game in the android market lol. i will probably wait for BB 10 and see if thats good.

Well, isnt the Atrix the sister of Bionic? I heard from VZW that it was delay due to melting issue. Over heat in situation due to the dual core it uses.
Motorola phones are pointless if you care about aosp kernels etc
Also you are supporting the company that wants root community to die...screw them
I like the fascinate, I dont like samsung, the samsung charge looks a lot like the fascinate, with LTE, and front facing camera, I think is better than the thunderbolt, but again, what good is it to have an unencrypted bootloader if the source codes are not released by samsung, see how we have managed with the fascinate, just hunting for leaks, fortunately we have better releases from our devs than from samsung or verizon, and it is very true what Nitsuj17 wrote, we dont want to support a company that wants to control how you use your owned and purchased with your hard earned money phone, screw motorola.
in simple words, I think I am leaning towards samsung charge

Correct and correct. Cyanogen (of all people) has actually picked LG over HTC for his next phone because of this.
I have been with samsung since my first cellphone back in 2004, I will be getting the charge when the price drops.
I think all of them will eventually lock bootloader. Either that or suck.**** on release like samsung. Tbolt looks promising, so is charger.

Same here. I think I'm addicted to the AMOLED screens (cause it sure isn't TouchWiz, using SPB Mobile Shell on the Omnias and LauncherPro on the Fascinate).
The Charge is the new 'big brother' to the Fascinate. The same guts more or less (nothing has changed profoundly), but the 4.3" SuperAMOLED+ Screen vs the 4" SuperAMOLED screen is sexy. Then you sprinkle a little 4G in there and some new cameras, and bam, you have the Charge.

With the OTA 2.2 update tho I'm pretty damn happy with my Fascinate once again. I really think it'd take a screamin' dual core 4G phone to make me really want to jump to a new on.
Yeah I think a dual core would make me more likely to upgrade even sooner.
The charge originally was supposed to be a dual core, but alas it was not to be.
$300 is steep, but if you think about it, its the exact same price as a 32gb iphone.
Think how much better a charge will be than an iphone:
almost 1 inch larger next gen screen.
lte
not stuck on inferior os
etc etc
If you think about it that way, the price seems much more palatable.
I just hope they make the physical buttons better than the DX. Those were flimsy.
That is steep. All of my last four phones were all under 250. Charge has less ram than tbolt. So what warrant the price?

Im curios to know how many people will take back their Evo 3D if no root method is found within their first 30 days. Im still debating myself, but I think this may be a way of getting Sprints attention. If there is a significant number of people who threaten to take theirs back, maybe Sprint will put the heat on HTC too.
I've threatened to but I am not sure that I will. Rooted or not this phone is ridiculously sick and I am having way too much fun with the 3D feature! I remain confident that HTC will get this done, perhaps with the 2.3.4 update.
You'd have to take it from me!
(Please don't take it from me!)
I won't. I like it fine now. Root would, of course, make it better.
I LOVED my EVO 4G, rooted with Myn's ROM Picked up the 3VO on Friday, was not super blown away at first, but now three days later, it is a more mature and refined EVO 4G, polished up in all the right places, and overall a better device. I like it over my ogEVO for sure, but it's not night and day better.
But seeing the reviews of the Galaxy S2, makes me think 99% I will go for that when it comes out. I am a sucker for the Super AMOLED+ screen, just go to an ATT store, check out the Infuse 4G, it uses the same screen tech, and instant boner looking at that beauty, the colors are jaw dropping, and viewing angles perfect.
Plus the Galaxy S2 is super ****ing thin, I am sucker for razor thin phones, they look so much more futuristic to me. And the design of it being an all black thin slab, just looks so cool. When Sprint gets it, it will be hard to resist.

Lets fact it not that many people will return this phone to have the impact you are looking for; the fact is it is not just a good phone it is a stellar. Even without root, this phone is one of if not the best on the market right now. I won’t get hung up on the root for now because I am sure either, HTC or the community will unlock the device.
I'm still debating as well if I should go back to the Evo 4G or stay. I do love all the new features, design, and speeds...but mess my rooted apps. I would also like to add some lockring and battery mods. I had a rooted Evo 4G with Sense 2.1 + 3.0 already (MikGv2.4) and mess the mods and themes. Hopefully HTC gives out the bootloader soon. If they do, then I'm definitely staying with my Evo 3D.
Sent from my HTC Evo 3D using XDA App
x2 on that new Samsung coming out... It seems very tempting to make the trade if HTC doesn't unlock these phones. I'm not really concerned with 3D. It's a cool 'wow' factor to friends but I personally don't really use it on my own. I guess when it gets closer to time for the new one to come out, I will make my decision then... Right now I'm leaning more toward sticking with HTC.

Learned this lesson a long time ago: never buy anything on a promise! I for one will not return it whether it gets root or not. I'll have a LOT more respect for HTC if they do unlock it, but me personally, I bought it knowing it was going to be locked. The "talk on the net" about HTC unlocking it via an OTA update is/was always just heresay. I also have confidence that whether they unlock it or not, eventually someone will pwn it.

3vo. That is all that needs be said.
I will stick with it. I am very satisified with the improvements root or not and i do not see anything much better coming out for quite some time. After testing many different android phones I can say this one has the best battery and features and i have tried many out from the G1, mytouch, hero, droid, evo4g, epic, thunderbolt, nexus s 4g. No phone is by any means perfect out of the box. It all comes down to if it works for you and gets you through the day.
27 days & counting. It is a great phone & a nice improvement from the original Evo but I can't see going any significant time without root. Plus I pretty much had my eye set on the GSII anyway. Figured I wouldn't loose anything from trying this out for at least 30 days.
Sent from my Rootless....but still pretty awesome Evo 3D using XDA Premium App
mine went back today. too many little issues aside from locked bootloader.
and btw... sprint is trying to charge existing customers $35 restocking fee to return the EVO3D. you can get it credited back if you know who to call and ask for it
Only a few hours in but it already seems like a keeper to me. I like the improvements made and the only thing I miss so far is the hotspot unlocked. Even without root it's a really good phone so far. Kinda like the Evo's big brother.
Root will happen its just a matter of when. I got the phone Friday and i got to admit I was somewhat let down. After having it all weekend and it now being monday, I will not be going back to 4G. The 4G phone was probably one of the most enjoyable phones I have ever owned. Not 1 single complaint about it. But this phone has so much more potential. There are a few things I don't like such as charging port location, no seperate hdmi, but I can live with it. This phone is definately more advanced than the og evo. And i will always have a place in my heart for my beloved 4G but i am keeping this one.

kinda sad we are still waiting yes i understand its still being tested and tweeked
i just think its funny that a gimmick phone gets root first and ITS AND HTC phone
Well they did promised that every phone after the 3D will have a unlocked bootloader. That even means the hero 4G also.

i understand that but why would you have to replace the HBOOT if it came unlocked ?
I understand that HTC is trying to cheap malware and such away from the phone but most people who are going to get it are people downloading infected apps from the market I would think? Does having a locked bootloader protect that? I would also think encrypting everything would take more resources then not? I dont know much but thankfully my flashing withdraws will stop soon

My bad Cheesy. My previous post means nothing due to the fact that i dont even believe that it shipped s-off. if it did there would be no reason to check and make sure it deosnt say s-on or replacing the HBOOT for that matter. So your OP does make sense and rings a bell. I guess HTC went back on their word again, either that or they thought the CHA CHA wasnt really that important to unlock.
Well since my EVO 3D is going back on Tuesday and i am waiting on the SGS2 to come out i won't miss the playing around with root from HTC and the Dev's...I am sorry but i do not believe S-OFF was leaked and went on youtube they are not that big that they would have leaks.
So enjoy and hope you guys get the root soon from either one of the sources.

You don't believe it? There is video proof. And it wasn't a leak per se, one of the members just accidentally posted the video publicly. S-OFF is coming soon, probably within a week or so. Sooner than the GS2 is coming to Sprint. So if it is a matter of not wanting to wait...I'd reconsider.

Not flaming but very curious. What does your last two post have to do with the topic @ hand. Secondly, why would a group of developers who have been on the android scene and responsible for previous s-off exploits have to lie and manipulate the android community to gain brownie points. Seems out of character and a first time ever in developer history as far as I know.Maybe you should do a little research before making poor assumptions.

If I've said it once I've said it a million times. Samsung Android phones are garbage, the only savior was the Nexus S. Everything else was crap.
I've yet to see one with completely functional GPS, a radio that works, a build quality that doesn't seem like some dollar toy you buy from china, capacitive buttons that work properly, hardware that properly reads battery levels, ect ect ect. Jesus man, Samsung can't even get the font on their lock screen right, You see the top 1/2 of each letter of the month, and only 3 letters max will show up
That is just the basics. The real issues run so much deeper.

The SGS2 GSM has been doing very well.There is not going to be a lot of difference from gsm to cdma and again if all fails without spending a dime i can come back to the 3D if i wish and maybe by that time HTC OR THE DEV'S might stop playing around with S-OFF so i do not lose out i try out the photon for 45 days free sell it get the SGS2 try it out most likely keep it due to the phone being better but if not the can i can always switch back.
You realize you have one chance to do a 30 day I don't like my phone exchange?
Good luck with the SGS2, they said the same thing about the regular SGS and that phone was a pile.

As someone who has tried both brands multiple times in the distant past, recent past and very recently I am going to have to call bull****... True, any brand of anything has its pros and cons, but when comparing samsung and htc htc doesn't even come close to samsung in the problematic-issues category.... There are some issues that go back many generations of samsung smartphone that seem like they will never get resolved.

your going for GSM I assume correct??
If so I would honestly wait till after MWC at the end of this month when we should find out dates of the next wave of device's to drop. It might be likely that there is one there that is releasing soon and would warrant waiting just a little bit.
I personally have CDMA version and love it. Now if GSM is your thing and you absolutely have to have one now maybe consider getting a cheapo phone now to wait and see what MWC has to offer?
Or if price is issue and all that then maybe compare the SensationXE/XL to the 3D? lil less Ram in the sensation and no 3D, but you could say a lil stronger Dev group over there on the Sensation than the GSM EVO3D here.
Welcome to XDA btw!

your going for GSM I assume correct??
If so I would honestly wait till after MWC at the end of this month when we should find out dates of the next wave of device's to drop. It might be likely that there is one there that is releasing soon and would warrant waiting just a little bit.
I personally have CDMA version and love it. Now if GSM is your thing and you absolutely have to have one now maybe consider getting a cheapo phone now to wait and see what MWC has to offer?

As i understand the GSM version is the International where you can put sim, and CDMA is Sprints without sim, i am from europe so i am going to get GSM, i dont realy want to wait till MWC, because i dont want to spend so much money on "day ago released" phone, because they are expensive and 3D in my country without a contract 460$ but Sensation is 520$, so in my country Sensation is more expensive, or i didnt realy cache your idea ;D
anyway i think that Evo 3D is my think although i realy dont want 3D so much and i preffer 8mpix cam than 5 but Evo is cheaper and it has more power as i understand, so any problems with it? or with rooted version of it?

CM is working to an extent, least CDMA version. 3D part of it makes it tougher. Check the dev section for GSM and read what all is going on there.

OMG i read it thats out there - camera not working, mass storage not working, nothing, its real alpha stage, and the worst is that that for 2 month there is no activity of most of the topics, okey i hope i could get along with only root without Custom ROM

At this point in tech time there are much better phones to get UNLESS you are getting a great deal on the phone price wise. And you like the 3d part. Just an opinion but flame if you must....

Already suggested to him but if you listened to him price matters and the new phones cost more...
And there are currently not phones out that are drastically better than the 3D anyway...
There will be but not now this sec.

I would check out InfectedRom. I'm am using synergy and it is the first rom I've had where everything worked. For example 3D games and hdmi output. I use a CDMA 3vo but they have a gsm del section as well.

In my honest opinion,
evo 3d is probably the best you can get for the budget, performance,tweaks and support till the quad core / lte or whatever comes out. you've posted in this forum and that should tell you enough. I say go w/ it and get one. It will hold you over for a long time till there is somn that the devs can do w/ the new ...
I don't have any specifics as you requested but just giving you my all around 2 cents about it..

Got My HTC Evo 3D GSM now waiting for something its too slow or for cynogen mod to come out with all functions working
Not sure if anyone is aware but Sprint no longer carries the Evo 3D. You can go to their site and look and the Evo 3D is no longer in their line-up. Some retailers still have some in stock, as of now RadioShack is offering the Evo 3D for $29.99 for new upgrade or add-a-line.
lmao! umm yeah. that's been the story for over 2-3 months now. lol. But oh well, you just now figured it out. Discontinued a long time ago. Sadly, the Evo 3D really is a great phone. But they can't just have 60 phones in their lineup. wish they could keep this one.
they need to grow a sack.
with ICS, the device should be a front runner, and HTC devs should have overclocked the GPU a tick to keep it up with other devices coming out. They could have kept selling the damn things, for the same price, it's all about how you market a product... and with hardware, as always, the performance is only as limited as the restricting software loaded to it.
truly disappointing. with ICS available, they could still be marketing these devices at 100 bucks a pop, even more, and people would still be buying them up.

None of this matters if the phone doesnt sell. It clearly didn't meet their expectations on the sales end which is why they elected NOT to put 3D on the next Evo. Doesn't matter what the hardware is, if people aren't buying it they aren't going to keep paying HTC to make them. Pretty simple business practice there.

The GS2 killed that phone. I had the 3d and figured it be just like my OG evo and i would keep it for a year. I got really bored with the phone. It was like they sold us a cool 3d phone and said have fun go find tour own 3d stuff lol. The phone didnt sell bc it wasnt that big of a difference from the original evo except the 3d and well there wasnt alot of 3d stuff available so what was the point in getting it. The GS2 how ever was thinner faster sexier and had a way better camera. The day the GS2 hit the shelves the 3d was done. I jumped ship asap

yea and they should still have nextel phones, just gotta market that push to talk feature better! *chirp chirp*
on a more serious note... glad you aren't the one making the decissions for sprint though
Marketing ICS
The general public seems to be a little uninformed about android versions. I work at best buy mobile and often used android version as a selling point (Especially when the Galaxy Nexus came out with pure ICS). However I don't emphasize software version as much now since most consumers have no earthly idea what it means. even after explaining, most customers respond with a lack of enthusiasm: "oh... that's neat..."
For myself and probably many power users, It would have made sense to release ICS earlier on the E3D so it could have a better edge on the competition, (iphone, Gs2), but the general public... Android versions don't seem to motive them as much. the early move to ICS would have translated to insignificant increases in sales to justify the release.
Atleast on Iphone instead of saying "The new 5.0/5.1" you can just say, "it's loaded with icloud." Consumers respond a lot better to that. even though I like selling androids better. especially after apple screwed up my evo LTE pre-order (was supposed to get it day after my birthday)

You know I don't have my head up Sprint's butt or my face constantly glued to XDA. So when someone makes a post that may be a little behind or in the wrong forum, coming out and try to make fun and humiliate them only pushes people away from the site. Next time show some courtesy and some decency and correct them in a respectful manner. Some people such as myself didn't know this until I went to add-a-line and saw it was no longer offered, others may see this post and find the same info and see a good sale for a great phone.

Another point is that HTC screwed up on this phone. About 70 percent of the people who've had this phone say its glitchy. I inherited this phone from my dad and when he had it, it would reboot or shut off by itself. Had it not been for it glitching out all the time my dad would'be kept it. And if a lot of people weren't hearing such things it wouldve been more popular.
