Getting a new phone in a few weeks and, while I love my eris and have for a while, I just want a new phone. Soo, I figured I'd ask my fellow eris owners what phone I should move on too. I was thinking either thunderbolt (it's 199.99 certified preowned) or dinc2 for 150.00. I want the charge but it's out of my budget. What do you guys think? I'd appreciate the help.

If you spend a lot of time in a 4G area, and you download/upload lots of data, the Thunderbolt may be best for you. If these factors are not important to you the Dinc 2 might be best.
Yeah, I'm thinking thunderbolt too. Thanks man. Thanks to all the devs here I had the best possible experience with my eris that I could imagine. Thanks especially to tazz whose roms were amazing and were the main ones that I used.

Bionic??
I am really leaning towards the Bionic. It is supposed to be out soon.
My area will have 4G by the end of the year and I can't see getting anything that isn't 4G capable. I have thought about the TB, but I am not sure I can live with the battery, the Charge is very expensive for what you get and the only other option is the LG Revolution. It is high on my list.
I am going to wait and see what happens with the Bionic over the next few weeks.

When does the bionic come out? And do you have any idea on the price range?

Rumor has it being released on Aug. 4th. I haven't seen anything on price, I expect it will be expensive
Lol thanks man. Now my choices have just expanded. Only problem with switching phones is losing these amazing developers here in the eris forums. Don't get me wrong I'm quite sure the developers for the other phones are great but it's just not the same lol

Personally, my contract is up in sept 15 and i don't plan on getting a 4g phone. I still think those phones have bugs and verizon keeps putting out updates to fix them. I will wait at least a year before i upgrade to 4g. I would probably go with incredible 2. Not sure if SGS II will be 4g or not. You could always wait for that.
Hanging on to my Eris for as long as possible.
I just upgraded from Eris to TBolt about a week ago. The plus one inch screen jump is a bit jarring but otherwise, I'm quite happy with my phone. (At least regarding development) the rom community is still pretty fractured with nothing quite as rock-solid as all the awesome Eris roms here but it's so incredibly active (I doubt it will be so for long... anxiously awaiting a CM7 update).
Anyway, phone-wise, I love my thunderbolt and the great build quality as long as the heft doesn't bother you. Battery life, the biggest complaint, is perfectly manageable and over stated. The rooting processing can be pretty intense but afterwards with a nice, new kernel it lasts a couple days no problem.

I thought the battery life thing could be fixed via rooting and you just proved it for me. I'll definitely put that into consideration when I go to verizon.

Hello, my name is Korey. I am formally known as Whosdaman or WDM. I started at the HTC Vogue and was a very prestigious developer. I then made the switch to Android with the HTC Hero. After sheer disappointment, I then decided to purchase the Samsung Epic. Again after the lack luster software updates provided by Samsung, I decided to switch manufactures again. I have no purchased my Motorola Photon 4G yet, but I am planning on doing so and publicly developing for this device.
My mentor is Kenneth Pennington which many of you may know. He is one of the top chefs on the Atrix and he and I will be working on rooting with device and hopefully unlocking it.
So tell us who you and and a little about yourselves so we can grow as a community together. We all need to stick together in order to accomplish goals as a whole. I will be providing 24/7 support for anything Sprint related. So if you need anything just let me know, for example MSL lookup.
Let me be the first to say welcome and thank you!
We are looking forward to a healthy community; we all know this device is capable of awesomeness - we just need the right people. I hope to eventually help with testing/whatever I can!
Welcome, i hope someone gets to this device because it has so much potential..

Korey? You'll always be Whosdaman to me. Anyway, glad to see ya here. I left the Epic for the 3D, returned it. Bought a used Evo 4g. It had a broken screen, so I purchased a new screen on Ebay. I googled and found how to videos to replace the touch screen, not that hard on the Evo. But after it was back together, the bottom touch buttons wouldn't work. Took it apart, tried again still wouldn't work, so down to the sprint store I go. I told them the whole story. They were great, said they could fix it, for $35. It was late, had to leave it over night. While I was there, played with the photon. I was really impressed! May see about selling the Evo, and upgrading to the Photon when I pick it up in the morning.

Had the evo 3d rooted and it seems like the only way it can come close to the power of the photon is if an aosp rom was thrown on it. Sense just slowed it down so much.

Saying Hello
OK, Joining the introduction thread.
Name is Tom, in Portland, Oregon. Started on HTC Hero, last phone was Samsung Epic. Not a ROM developer but regularly load the new ROMs on the phones and play with them until I get the one I like for that version, which surprisingly varies on the Epic because the ROMs don't get updated on an even schedule, not that their scheduled. Been a big fan of both ACS & Bonsia, usually using ACS ROMs.
I do have a QE background but have been moved to Database Admin.
Waiting patiently for the first root instructions to come out that work, tried the Atrix & SuperOneClick methods to no avail.

I dumped the Epic today and I'm not the proud owner of a Photon with both docks... Well... OK... my employer is the proud owner, I just get to use it. Going from the Epic to the Photon was a big step for me due to the loss of the physical keyboard but since I realized that 95%+ of the time I never used it I think I can adjust. I thought about waiting for the Within but I think I need a break from Samsung and there are things such as the docks that are more of a plus for me than the ability to record 1080 video. Glad to see you're on board over here. I'm hoping to find time to be more involved over here than I was over in Epicville.
Trying to determine if this is intros only for devs or common folks like myself. If common folks, then here goes, otherwise skip me.
Real name David, location NYC, (sounds like a dating service lol )
Call sign twospirits, as some may know me from other sites that I mod and admin in. Been a member here since 2007 but mostly in the lurking stance (as you can tell by my post count). And that's mainly because I am not a dev. I'm mainly into reading, writing and learning but having fun doing it.
Started with Sprint since 2000 on Touchpoint/LG phones non-smartphones then eventually with Winmo phones Diamond/Pro then jumped onto Android with the Hero, EVO and now Photon. Learned quite a lot but its a never ending process and the stuff that comes out of here is truly amazing. Amazed at the stuff that quite a few devs and their roms on here have produced like MikG and FreshEVO.
I agree with the OP that we can grow as a community together and need to stick together to accomplish goals. And hopefully this can be accomplished without the flaming and arguing shown elsewhere. Being that this section is brand new, maybe we can keep it flame free. I for one will be using that report button alot if it isn't.

It's intro for everyone!

a buddy of mine told me that if you currently own a tbolt and call Verizon Wireless complaining about certain issues, they replace it with a Rezound. Has anyone heard anything about this?
If you get your Thunderbolt replaced for valid insurance purposes, they will replace it with a rezound since most, but not all, Verizon stores are out of Thunderbolts.
Some times, though, you won't be offered a rezound. Rather, you may get offered a LG Revolution... which sucks.
There is a post about it here:

You have to push a little if they don't offer it. We got my wife's Charge replaced with a Rezound last night. Took some prodding, they wanted to offer a Stratosphere or Spectrum or Nexus. When we pushed, they offered the Rezound or Bionic as well.
Just had my Thunderbolt replaced for a broken screen through the insurance of Verizon and I still got a Tbolt for a replacement . Guess they found some more.....

Same here. When I talked to the Rep at Asurion about my phone (sucky data connection) I hinted about the rezoned replacement. He told me that they have plenty of TBs around. Which is fine, I like the TB when it's working, with a good ROM it doesn't really matter what the phone is to me.

I think he's talking about my phone being replaced under the phone insurance program (Asurion). This is my 3rd TB from them so I think it's paid off. It's the first phone I bought insurance on and I'm glad I did. Having to cough up several hundred dollars for a new phone would suck.
Edit: Looks like they are out of refurbs at Asurion. I got a brand spanking new TB yesterday. It works beautifully (for now) I'm going to let it sit stock for a few days to make sure but then Jester's ICS will be on there in no time.

I use to love my HTC amaze so much but suddenly I got tired that HTC doesn't care about updates especially for security flaws and such. Yes many people have written this before. I was a loyalist of HTC up until the HTC amaze came out and then suddenly they stopped listening to us and made phones without expandable memory and a removable battery.... They started to not update their phones as often as before and well I remember my first HTC device the s640, it was a great phone and I maintained my loyalty through the days of the touch diamond and all those other windows phones. Anyways this is Me saying good bye and I've found a greener pasture to graze on now.... I love my galaxy note 2 a lot and like the fact that samsung still listens to their customers needs and wants.

Maybe the op somehow feels HTC. Will see all these goodbye threads, and listen to what people want. They must want phones with removable batteries, micro as slots, and updates, which Is why Samsung is in top right now. I love HTC phones but they haven't made a phone I'd buy since the amaze!

All I want on my Amaze is a good ROM with little to no glitches. Instead I am stuck with Energy, bluetooth works when it wants to, won't always come back out of the black screen, slow, etc
If I could use my S3 i747 effectively on my Tmobil lane I would throw away the amaze. Tired of just "dealing with it" and it's hard to defend the amaze nowadays.

Let me know how you like it I'm slow to move on since there is some awesome roms for this phone but I will probably be getting one soon waiting to hear what Motorola comes out with first. The htc one has also peaked my interest(just announced on Verizon) but htcs track record with updates is making me hesitant to pick it up. Enjoy your new phone
Thanks so far I still have it stock and it is still amazing. I have had no problems yet but I do miss my infected rom. I'll probably root it soon and tell how it is. I bought this at full price and its worth every penny.

And I have had a droid x before my rezound and I think samsung is by far more innovative. The performance and feature jump between all of the devices is greatest between my rezound and gs4. Also the gs4 is basically the android flagship and will get loads of development. And it looks like motorola is the most concerned with keeping their phones locked up then HTC then samsung so it looks like the gs4 will be the best for modding. Its your choice but I would look into it a lot first. i was going to get the one x but it has no expandable storage ane all of the air view stuff is really useful and cool.

fenguepay, see you on the other side. Picked up an S4 last Friday. Kept the Rezound and moved it to a different line to replace a D1. All I have done so far is root the S4. It is a sweet.
I'm really excited by all the new phones out there (my wife has the Galaxy Note II, I'm loving the look of the HTC One, etc), but I'm really hesitant to move on. The HTC Rezound community is one of the best I've seen. Maybe the fact that it was a nerdier phone has helped the community? The Nexus 7 community, for instance, seems insanely crowded with 100 ROMs and you can't tell what's going on.
I'm curious if people are buying Developer Edition or Google Edition phones as they leave the Rezound? Coming from a Motorola Droid 2 (with it's insane bootloader locking nonsense), I'm going to be very careful before choosing my next phone. I'm really excited about the Google Edition phones.
Good luck with your new phones! Maybe come back sometime and tell us how the GS4 community is.
