I have a NS4G, and am switching from Sprint so I'll need a new phone. I'm looking into either the Amaze 4G, Sensation, or Galaxy S II. I want a phone that has a good developer community, as the two previous phones I had were fairly active in that regard.
I saw that the Amaze 4G Dev forum is looking like all the roms are Sense based. Is this an temporary thing or is the dev support just not there? (Or is the phone locked down enough to make it difficult?)
Anyway I would greatly appreciate some I put on this!

Go for the sensation. I have a galaxy s two and the amaze and the dev community is almost non existent. Had a sensation and they got lots of stuff over there.

Hello, I am new to the forum but do have the HTC Amaze 4G. While HTC does provide the tools for unlocking the bootloader, they do not allow for S-OFF (Security OFF). And it is because of this (for the most part) that developing for the HTC Amaze is limited ATM.

Temp - hopefully.
Dev support - we only have one developer that actually has the phone. To top it off he's only 16 and still in high school.
We have the source but not the entire kernel source (thanks to HTC and their technicalities)
Still don't have s-off so we can't flash kernels via recovery thus makes flashing roms that much more difficult.
So if you want a good phone to use as a daily driver and don't care about tweaking and boosting... this is the phone for you!
If you immediately want fully working ICS, Sense 3.5, CM9, AOSP, etc then go with another device.
Do we see this happening in the future? If more developers were to pickup the device then maybe. But not anytime soon.
Bottom line if you want a device that has a HUGE selection of roms that you can do pretty much anything with... this isn't the phone for you. Not yet anyway.
Anyone know if there's any word on whether S-Off is coming? I thought I heard HTC announcing the days of S-On being forced are over.
I'd rather get the better phone. Hope that dev support comes.

Agreed with Binary.
From what you've posted this doesn't sound like the phone that will suit you. However, in the long-run it could suit you better maybe?
I doubt this forum will ever pick up. Most people who wanted a phone like this bought the sensation, and this phone is not a big enough of an upgrade from that. So most will just wait till the next gen.
Thanks for the responses. I think I am going to go with the Amaze after all, and deal with Sense. Apparently it'll get ICS at some point regardless, which will be nice. I am pretty good with Linux so I might work on my own development if I get some free time (going back to college to finish up my bachelors degree so I'm not so sure about that part).

I definitely agree. Everyone that I know that bought this phone after having the Sensation ended up having buyers remorse. The phones seem very similiar to eachother and we all expected them to be pretty much the same. However we later found out that they are nothing alike on the inside. Different partitions, different software, different securities, etc. This phone is actually kind of a PITA for developers despite how HTC claims to be "developer friendly" and all that other nonsense.
If you stick with the Amaze then try beast, its pretty damn close to AOSP, or at least as close as we can have for now

This is the first phone where I had to use the htc unlocking method and am SHOCKED that is not as open as they made it out to be. Keeping s on? What the hell was the point then? I can see where it would benefit developers, but as far as supporting xda type communities, its an epic fail while giving us false hope in all those press releases how they "heard" the enthusiast community and wanted to be more open.

i hated always have 150mb of RAM or lower, but your ns4g has 2xxmb less so you are probably used to it.
Yeah I have been less of an enthusiast lately since the dev community sorta dried up on the NS4G the past couple weeks.
Its fine. I have less free time now than I used to anyway

welcome aboard, mate..
It feels weird being on a stock rom without root and no recovery. I just hope it isn't like my Mytouch 4G when trying to get s=off and root it..
I don't know what the MT4G is like, but there are definitely some hoops to jump through here. I'm using the HTC dev method to unlock, but I'm still S-ON. I use 4ext recovery to flash ROMs, and so far all is well.

Oh I didn't know you can have a recovery and still be S=On.. on the Mytouch it was very difficult to get it off because since I got mine as soon as it came out, their wasn't much development on it but that is very cool to be able to do that
Welcome.
Read thoroughly on how to root and downgrade or if you want to stay S-ON, 4EXT Recovery is the way to go.
Fortunately, I don't have to worry about that. HBOOT 1.4, yea!
welcome
As soon as you root and stuff, I'd recommend flashing a sense 4.0 Rom. It's just so much better than sense 3.0/3.6 IMO
Oh and Welcome!

I recommend against that, especially if you came to 3D Land for the 3D, which no Sense 4.0 ROM has. They don't have 4G either, if you are in a 4G rich area.

Well I've had ICS since April (CM9, AOKP) so I definitely have had my fair taste of the sandwich and I still have yet to root this phone. The 3d is a gimmick and i'm pretty sure I will not use it as much, and Buffalo has no 4G never did so that doesn't matter either lol. Probably going to wait some more until a fully stable and functional sense 4.0, 4.0.4 Rom comes out with all the bugs fixed. At least this will help tame my flashing addiction for now and focus on the EVO's framework and working's and etc etc so I can start porting rom's to this device. That's what i'm hoping to do anyway's Still learning though
Not so new..
Hi guys, i have not really been active on the forums for the last 4 months or so, but I think its time to get into it some more.
I have a knack for finding apps, either paid or removed from market at other sources, so if you are having trouble with finding whatever app it may be let me know and maybe I can help you out.
I am also having a problem of my own that I would really like help with if anyone would. I can not get internet, data, 3g, or mms on my 3d thats been flashed to metro.
Im currently running hboot 1.5 unlocked, s-off, 2.17, rooted. And yes I have tried posting in the forum that the guide was in, but unfortunatly am unable due to less than 10 posts error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Um, I can't help, but I do want to know what the less than ten posts error is.

ORIGINAL POST
Hello XDA,
My name is swagstr and I am as some would call a developer and others would call a contributor. Either way, I have created two very successful ROMs, SOS+ (X/S/M) for the HTC EVO 4G and SOS M for the HTC EVO 3D.
I have a vision for a new project and I was hoping to get as many developers and contributors as possible to help with this project.
The project is titled: All Swagged Out Project. It is a play on the way most people misspell AOSP.
The goal is simple. Every time a new developer or contributor begins to dig his/her heels in and tries to learn how to modify Android, this person has to search and search and search. I was hoping that the people that develop and contribute for the EVO devices could take the lead and create a repository of sorts for modifications.
A wise man named tommytomatoe (developer of The Classic ROM for the HTC EVO 4G) once said: "Sharing is caring." I fully believe in this motto and hope that everyone in the EVO community feels the same way. I have opened up several threads over at the SOS Forums where people can post their original (or borrowed) mods and tweaks for the EVO 4G LTE, 3D, V, and 4G. I would not be opposed to having these posted at XDA, but I think I would be nice to the XDA moderators if I took the moderating of these threads on myself. My goal is to moderate these threads and add as much information as possible to provide the best ROMs for EVO users.
I think this could revolutionize knowledge sharing in the Android community and I hope EVO users can lead the way.

Hello XDA,
My name is swagstr and I am as some would call a developer and others would call a contributor. Either way, I have created two very successful ROMs, SOS+ (X/S/M) for the HTC EVO 4G and SOS M for the HTC EVO 3D. I hope to bring the same excitement that SOS M for the HTC EVO 3D brought by bringing the SOS family to the HTC EVO 4G LTE.
Unfortunately, my small development team, Team Swag, has ZERO HTC EVO 4G LTEs. Now, instead of asking for money, I was hoping to find a tinkerer with decent know-how around this new device. My goal is to take MeanROM ICS (permission already given by mickeyxda) and remove Sense. Then, I plan to add all of the features added in the current SOS M for EVO 3D and any other Swag that needs to be added for the EVO 4G LTE.
This means I am looking for someone who can devote HOURS to this project. Knows how to use 7-zip/WinRAR to mess with flashable .zips. Can decompile and re-compile an .apk. Knows how to use ADB. Knows how to root and install ROMs (in and out) for the HTC EVO 4G LTE. Also, this person needs to have an HTC EVO 4G LTE and needs to plan on keeping it for at least 6 months.
If you don't quite fit this category, I will be releasing a special SOS Soak Test over at my SOS Forums for those that want to test the ROM as it is being developed and before it is ready for prime time.
Let me know if you think you fit the ticket below and post a link to your previous work. If I think we will fit, I will send you a PM.
Have a great day

Pretty decent. I can push, pull, permissions, logs, shell, fastboot, adb, and I know the parititions, etc.
Make my own ROM for me based on stock and update it after every update. Don't really put tweaks/etc. in it that often, because 1.) stability and 2.) usability are the most important things for me.
Can do bootanimations, resizing of images using Photoshop CS6 or Fireworks.
Do most stuff on Windows 7 64, however, I have VMware Workstation 9 running Ubuntu 12.04 as well and do some things on there (i.e Gimp for .9 patch editing)

Most I've had to worry about is changing all the European units/measurements/dates to be more American.
Here's a checklist:
Set "English (United Kingdom)" to "English (United States)"
In weather, change Celsius to Fahrenheit
In date and time, disable military time
In date and time, set the date from DD/MM/YYYY to MM/DD/YYYY

I've been a long time sprint customer
And I recently switched over to AT&T. The one thing I would definitely admit missing is the guys over at the Sprint development especially on the HTC front.
I'm new to AT&T and I sure hope they have some talented Dev on here because they did on the Sprint side.

ARHD 6.1 added AT&T specific options in Aroma, users have reported improved LTE speeds after the update. I was seeing ok LTE speeds but low signal bars on prior to the update, it definitely improved the bar display but not sure about the speeds because I don't have that much data to compare it to.
My LTE speeds are excellent though:
