So, the development has kind of spuddered on the Amaze, and since I could not get S-on to work, I got stuck with the terrible radio on the ICS, and no way to get back to the stock radio.
I think I am ready to leave HTC for a while, too, just want a different look, something besides SENSE. I'm know I am in the Amaze forum, but what phone would you consider getting. Maybe the Samsung Galaxy S II, the Galaxy Nexus, or wait for the Samsung Galaxy S II if I can. I was ready to pull the trigger on the Galaxy Nexus from the Google Play Store, but the slower data kind of bothers me a bit. It is HSPA+ 21, and coming from the Amaze with HSPA+ 42, I'm not sure if I want the decrease. What to do, what to do?

Can you explain "So, the development has kind of spuddered on the Amaze"? Why do you think you need s-off to flash a different radio? If you aren't happy with ICS then find the leaked RUU for gingerbread, rename it and install it the same way you did with ICS..
The hardware of the phones you named is inferior to the amaze, and there are plenty of phones that are better than those-- I am thinking you just aren't doing very good research.
I couldn't get S-off for a while too. Turned out my problem was the wire was too small. You could try a bigger one if you couldn't get it to work.

Does anyone know if the GS2 will be coming to Sprint and if so, when? I just got a NS4G and I'm considering returning it and saving the upgrade for the GS2
i don't think so
if it does come it will be in a very long time with a CDMA band
just like the Nexus 4G that came at the end of the cycle
Rumor is it will be called the Samsung Galaxy Within or Sprint Within and a late July release date seems to be the general consensus.

Well, we're two weeks away from the end of July. Hopefully, there will be some announcement on Monday!

Looks like everyone but the U.S. is getting the Samsung Galaxy S II one way or the other and it seems like future owners have been waiting an eternity to get one. Hopefully Sprint will launch its version of the phone in a matter of weeks as what is believed to be called the Galaxy Within has been allegedly pictured above.
As you can see in the comparison shot we've put together below, the basic lines and what appear to be specifications are quite the same. Give or take a couple of details, you still have your eight-megapixel at the back but this time above the flash --which also seems larger -- instead of its left.
The Sprint logo should clear any doubts of the destination for the Within and the side buttons/rockers seem to match. With its 1.2GHz Exynos CPU coupled with 1GB of RAM, 4.3-inch Super AMOLEDPlus screen and a two-megapixel front facing camera, the Galaxy Within would be the EVO 3D's strongest competitor on Sprint. For all of you out there waiting, it should be coming soon -- late July according to rumors -- and with Android 2.3.4 at that!

I haven't been into the Atrix forums in a while, so I would like a rom recommendation.
I have an rooted, subsidy unlocked AT&T Atrix. Its currently running Homebase but I am having issues with it, primarily:
Xorg is using about 50% CPU cycles, causing the unit to run hot and killing my battery. Im not sure why, perhaps a memory leak, but whatever it is, I would still like to try something else.
I WANT webtop (Ubuntu) and maximum functionality. Fingerprint reader needs to work. HDMI w/o dock mod needs to work. I don't care about what the UI looks like as I'll replace it with GO Launcher.
BTW: I'm using a Galaxy S2 right now, prior to that a 4S, but something about the Atrix keeps me coming back to it. I love this phone, there is literally nothing else like it (feature wise) on the market. Not even the Atrix 2.

Wet Dream if you want to set your Atrix apart from the rest thanks to the Webtop Environment!
But you can also try ICS (CM9 KANG) if you haven't already tried it on the SGS2.
I've been using Wet Dream with a highly modified Webtop2SD environment but ever since I installed CM9 just to see ICS I truly think it's well worth it even on it's Alpha status.. (I think it has already upgraded to Beta status!) Woohoo!
Sent from my Atrix 4G using Tapatalk
I love CM9 so much.
But with Fingerprint+Webtop which are Moto's, u really shoulda go Wetdream, even if i had more issues with WET DREAM than with ICS yet
And i am writing this only to get my 10 posts to thank Jokersax for ICS so much
it took awhile to get wimax on aosp roms for the og evo and 3d now that its lte will it be easier to get it working on aosp roms?

J/k, but from what I've read a LONG time ago, it'll be pretty much the same.
One developer claimed it'll be impossible. But who knows.

do Verizion phones have ASOP and LTE? I'm too lazy too look, but I'm gonna guess that by now they do

I was under the impression the the Thunderbolt had LTE in AOSP.....maybe not, who knows.
Also, It should help that the GNex is LTE. Given those maybe proprietary blobs (I really don't know how open Nexus code is) if its not, why wouldn't it be in relatively quickly? Yeah it's a different radio, but the interface should be similar across most of Sprints LTE devices.
EDIT: Yes, it seems the Thunderbolt does have LTE working in CM7
Edit 2: VZW's LTE has a removable SIM card for LTE Activation, I assume ours is very similar, with possibly embedded or spoofed SIM. This probably makes it at least easier to get to work because the device doesn't have to handle the authentication the the network, the network handles it.
Hey guys, my friend has an evo 3d and he is having trouble with crashes etc on stock. He asked if I could root his phone for him. Could you throw out some suggestions for the smoothest most reliable cdma rom for this phone. Keep in mind, after I flash the phone he will probably never update the from so make it a good one! Thanks.

Nearly all the ROMs in development section are stable unless they are labled alpha. If he wants to remain stock, a master reset is probably needed.
I'm running Paranoid Android 2.52 and it is amazing. Great ROM and best of all its Jellybean. The only thing I've found wrong with this ROM is the 3d doesn't work. But 3d on phones is lame anyhow. Kinda a gimmick more than anything.
Android Revolution or MeanROM. I wouldn't recommend any others as ultra stable and fully working, as I'll assume if he's anything like my brother, it's going to have to be perfect... Otherwise he'll never let you near one of his devices again.
If he's on Virgin Mobile, go with Harmonia.
I do not recommend flashing any kernel other than stock either, unless you are positively 200% sure it will never break down. Stock kernel as I have seen is the most bug free (although definitely NOT the smoothest, not by a long shot).
Make sure you tell him what you're doing if you decide to flash a custom kernel, and do NOT under any circumstances over clock. If he accidently touches something and ends up at 1.8gHz and performance governor, (while he may come to you to try and fix it) he may also end up obliterating the hardware on his phone.
I only know from past experiences.
So to end on a final note.
Enhanced stock is really the only way to go to ensure ultimate stability. And unless he is going to flash ROMs himself, that's my opinion.

Just wondering if anyone still has this phone? I let my wife by it without doing research...didn't have time....and so regret getting it. Canadian version only...no real activity rom wise...and even if they put official jb out....still wont be much dev activity. So still will be not many rom options.
That being said....simply to get her a phone with more options available(roms ) , since cm9 seems to be the only stable option on the i757m....I'm thinking of getting her a used s2....a t989 or i9100. I have a t989 and rom activity is great and ongoing! Does anyone know here in Canada....will either of these phones work on bell if they are unlocked? Or even the nexus....not the new n4...the older model. I've never unlocked a phone....so I'm kinda clueless about it.
Any input would be greatly appreciated.

Well....the i757m's 2 roms are in this phones general section. And....i9100 is one of the phones I'm asking about....so......yeah. yes I put i9000 in op....typo. I fixed.

If you read the general section, why not searching for a "should I get an SII" or "what s ii variant is better"?
Topic: I757m...anyone here?(echo ) <---- very specific topic you got there.

Oh, by the way, get her a I9100, well supported (ROMs & Q&A as it's massive worldive), International (so yes, will work with Bell) and because it's awesome
The topic heading was a stab at that phone! Almost like I feel I'm the only one in the world with it....and I'm not a dev ....so I'm boned! LOL
I know all s2's are great...but I was more wondering about the i9100 working on bell.
But actually ....I looked more into it....might go with last generation at&t nexus. They apparently will work with bell....and I do love my nexus 7!
Thank you tho!
