Hello all and thanks all for all the help and tips over the last year and a half, I have dropped my E3D and the touchscreen and lcd panel are broken. I would especially like to thanks all the devs in the gsm forum as I have used almost every rom at some time or other and learned a lot from them.
It wont be repaired by me and i'm selling it to a friend. Does anyone have any suggestions on the next phone I should look for? I was thinking of a Galaxy Note 2 possibly unless someone can suggest anything better.
Note2, HTC One, Nexus4 or maybe xPhone?

Please keep the comparos coming. I have a MyTouch 4G which was having screen issues, so T-Mobile swapped for the Sensation, but I just don't like it. I don't like the shape of it. I don't know. I just don't like it, but loved the MyTouch 4G. I ordered the Amaze yesterday, over the SG II, and need some confirmation from you guys that I made the right decision. I am going to go in the store and take a look at them tonight.
You'll love it!!!! My brother has the galaxy s2 and I don't like how it feels. Amaze Is not THAT bulky like reviews say. It's perfect

Both phones have screen issues, but the sgs ii issues can NOT be fixed.. ours can, with a download of a free app The rooted version that people are talking about uses more battery than screen filter for the people wondering.. well it uses 2mb more of RAM so i think so xD

The Amaze appears more rounded and sleek than the Sensation and it has lines that probably come a little closer to the MT4G. The SGS II is a rounded rectangular slab. I prefer the looks of the Amaze.

I prefer a heavier phone. Put a well-built phone inside of a case that grips well and it just feels more secure in your hands.
I tested out both phones quite a bit before making my decision a couple weeks ago and ended up purchasing the Amaze. I couldn't stand the resolution on The S2 .....it was terrible, that and didn't care for touchwiz and overall the phone felt cheap.
This phone is definitely heavier, which I love! IMHO looks better built and is faster. I have a buddy with an SgS2 and can't get but 8 download and 2 upload on same newtwork to where I have almost hit 20 a couple times and 8 upload!
Love this phone!
Sent from my HTC_Amaze_4G using Tapatalk
I'm glad to see that you hit 20 on download with the Amaze, because I was a little worried, as I was in a T-Mobile store tonight, comparing the two (I order the Amaze yesterday), and somehow the Amaze had gotten network locked, so I could test it, but the Samsung was hitting 18M down and 3 or 4 up. I was hoping that I had not made the wrong decision on getting the Amaze. The white SG II looks awesome though, very awesome. I'm a fan of the sleek looks, like the IPhone 4/S, not all of the grooves and lumps of some phones, so the SG II looks great to me, http://galaxy-s.t-mobile.com/samsung-galaxy-s2#/gallery .

Damn...so that means we will have to deal with you in the Evo3D forums for atleast another month?
Galaxy S3. I am looking for something new.
I never thought i'd say this...but my next phone might be a Samsung. lol
I really wish HTC wasn't soooo blind and/or blatantly anti-consumer. It seems like Samsung got everything right with the gs3 while the new line of HTC phones still have quite a few things that I really don't like about them.
I haven't finalized my decision by any means, but as of now, i'm definitely leaning towards the GS3.
Everything was looking so good right up until the screen...F That crap...not even going to give pentile display a 2nd thought after seeing the Galaxy Nexus up close.

new evo ... locked in battery
gs3 for me
The answer would be easy if HTC would listen to the community. But since Samsung makes their devices developer friendly its a hard not to go with them. Even with the screen quality being less than the Evo LTE. The Evo is guaranteed to be locked and I can't stand being restricted. HTC also doesn't give out source code so our devs can't build functioning roms. Thats why I'm leaning Samsung
Coming from the rezound in June. I was happy with the way the one x looked and thought that's what I'd be getting, then the evo let design came out. It kind of bummed me but it's growing on me. The sg3 just doesn't have a good enough design for me. I like the lte's look better. Still wish it looked like the one x though :/. Oh well I still can't wait.

The only difference is color man, I own 3 galaxy s2's best decision was switching back to HTC and letting go of those Samsung with their ****ty ass radios. HTC just kick ass, they just need to upgrade their screens and they should be able to stomp on Galaxy phones all day. Oh and fyi flashing and rooting is so much easier. EVO 3d not dead.

I suggest you to search the web for images. Search for HTC Sense / FriendStream and compare it to Sony Xperia TimeScape... You'll notice the difference. And definitely take a look at LG Prada 3 interface!
There's also Samsung's Touchwiz but I only know the icons and the notification area, can't really cite any feature...
It isn't in the visuals though, but in the little things like what a menu will offer you, functionalities and the exclusive apps the manufacturers produce to their phones that makes each unique.
Hi, I bough the HTC one when it came one on T-Mobile, then after 4-5 days of use I decided to return. The reason was I had the Galaxy s3 before and thinking that the Galaxy s4 is much better watching online reviews. And I went and bought the international version of Galaxy s4 i9500 for $775 cash. Thinking its octocore and it has to be unbelievably fast. Now after using the GS4 I realized that HTC one is a much better and faster phone. Everything on the one is PREMIUM.
Now Im trying to get rid of the i9500 and get the HTC one back.
Just sayin dont trust any reviews on the youtube they are all bull****

I also have both phones. If I had to choose I would pick the HTC one. The s4 is a nice phone but the ui isn't as smooth from my experience.
If the ui on the s4 was just as smooth as the HTC one it would be hard to choose. The s4 has a lot of customization.

I will never buy a phone with non removal battery. Its stupidity. Here in europe you get 2 years for warranty and 6 months for battery. If you are unlucky after one year and battery is gone you have to pay to much for a replace battery or if you try to change it by yourself you loose warranty. Thats stupid in a phone of 700 or more euros. And so far i saw from comparison s4 is slightly better. Thats all because I say. Lol

Why be so childish over a phone? If you don't like the HTC one then why are you on this forum? No need to bash other phones just because you "think" yours is better. I have the HTC one and I love it because it's for me, my girlfriend has the gs4 because she's used to touchwiz and I've played with it and it's also a great phone. Stop all the bashing and just enjoy your phone. It's all about personal preference.

Because Android and iOS have polar opposite philosophies. Android offers users choice; and choice leads to freedom, ultimately entitlement. iOS says my way or highway. Capitalism vs. Communism.
Maybe the Evo isn't dead yet.. What if that new Butterfly S that was suppose to be the next DNA is coming to sprint? It's got the right colors to be an Evo. Happy I didn't use up my upgrade yet.

It's definitely gonna be a nice phone! I owned the Evo 4G, still have my Evo 3D with about 6 extra batteries , and still have 2 Evo LTE (1 in each color). That said, I could care less if it has the Evo name or not, to be honest, I don't care if it's named HTC Turd! Lol. A name is just that, a name. It has nothing to do with the phones features and functionality! If it doesn't have an sd card slot then I won't even consider it! The One is a huge disappointment to me with no sd card slot and only a 4.7" display! That's why I now have a Note 2. I wanted a bigger display and gotta have an sd card slot! After 6 or 7 years of nothing but HTC phones, this Samsung is a very nice change(NEVER thought I would EVER say that)! It's nice to not have to worry about s-off/unlocking the bootloader, since Samsung doesn't lock their sh1t down like HTC does!! Oh, also nice being able to swap batteries again! One of the first things I did was order an extra battery! Almost forgot how awesome it was being able to swap batteries in my Evo 4G and Evo 3D!!

This is terrible imo... While I like the evo line I think that HTC made the right move having one phone rather than several. It has increased sales and spurred development.

Well the One doesn't have LTE800 and it's going to start popping up soon so I'm ready to have a phone with both LTE bands ready to go. (assuming that this is all true and if the Butterfly S does in fact have the correct radios for LTE 1900+800).The One on Sprint has such a crappy antenna design when it comes to LTE and 1X...I didn't use my upgrade on it so I'm ok with the switch if need be.
