Re: That's odd...
There is no bloat really on the Sprint version, and the apps that are there can be un installed.
That's odd...
Wonder how much crap-ware they added that made it so it can't update OTA. Since the Sprint version got an OTA.
One X vs Galaxy Nexus.
Ok so assuming Sprint launches the G-Nex in the next few weeks as rumored,and assuming they announce their version of the One X in a couple days at the HTC press conference as rumored, which should I go with?
The pure Android goodness of the Galaxy, or the One X with it's better display and quad core processor??
I swore after my EVO 3D i was only going pure android from here on out. But the display and processor on the ...
Re: The Patent Mafia
They dont even do that much work. They buy the patents from people who could never make a working product. Then they do nothing with it until they can troll companies that are actually trying to push inovation forward. They are the epitome of whats wrong with this country today, tryin to find the easiest way to scam a buck instead of working for it.
Re: Lacking Support
HTC updates way more phones, and does it way more quickly than either Samsung or Motorola.
And that's not even counting that Samsung has never put out an Android update with out it having an issue and needing to stop the update til they fixed it.
And the EVO will be 2 yrs old in June. And hardware wise is lacking quite a bit by today's standards. I'm ok with anything over 18mnths not getting a major update.
Lastly the EVO ...
Holy crap...
Is there anything Verizon doesn't try to nickel and dime to customers? Why would acct management stuff not be free? How do ppl voluntarily have a service like that?
woot!!
Id prefer the Galaxy Nexus coming to Sprint. But in the meantime i'll take my EVO 3D getting ICS!!
Re: NOT All LTE Networks will be equal
Except I'm like 90% sure sprint LTE will roll down to 800mhz also. I could be wrong but I think it will.
Look what Sprint can do..take a lesson at&t
so as i said elsewhere: How do ppl not think At&t is completely full of s**t when they say they HAVE to purchase t-mobile to make this kind of roll out happen. How bout you just, i dont know, use that money to actually expand your network instead of eliminating a competitor.
Re: What the FCC wants
Well Put. Unfortunately you'll never convince ppl like T Bone because they can't hear thru their tin foil helmet. Everything the government does is out to get us aaaaaaaaaahhhhhh.
Re: uncertainity --created WITHOUT net neutrality, not WITH...
Not 100% sure what side you are on (bad grammar and what not) but it sounds like you are against net neutrality. Assuming you are against it, i dont think net neutrality means what you think it means. This is the FCC telling the ISPs they CANT tell you what to look at online. This is not the FCC controlling what you can do.
If you arent against it..disregard.
Re: heavy???
Hmm fair enough. Owning EVOs probly skews ones expectations for how much a phone should weigh. Anyone wanting a comparison tho, it feels like half the weight of my EVO 3D.
heavy???
You really think so? Played with one this morning & it feels like its a feather compared to my EVOs I've had.
Re: FYI
A. I think he was referring to how Boost mobile plans can drop down to $35 a month.
B. Employees DEFINITELY get this kind of plan, better even...free ;) While you're talking about spouting misinformation as fact.
Ballsy
They basically just threatened that if this doesn't get approved, they are gonna provide even crappier service. Wow. Guess it hasn't occurred to anyone in at&t to just use that 40 billion to..I dnt know...work on their network.
Does nobody think ??
Not that i plan to convince someone with the username attrep. But there's a reason fewer ppl would care if Sprint bought tmobile, if you used any common sense. Having 3 carriers of relatively equal footing is nowhere near the same as having 2 giants price fixing the market & a 3rd being so far behind that catching up or effectively competing is near impossible.
Re: Vote with your dollars, not your whining.
"The government doesn't need to "protect the people from a corporation" which doesn't make any sense anyways."
-What doesnt make sense about that? You're an idiot!
-Here's a couple examples off the top of my head: The FDA protecting us from companies putting whatever they want in our food. OR them breaking up Ma Bell the first f***in time! smh
And wireless service isnt a necessity today. But it will be tomorrow (as in the future, since you dont seem to grasp ...
Re: Vote with your dollars, not your whining.
The government should definitely not control everything. That being said...take you're aluminum helmet and peddel your BS somewhere else.
This is exactly the type of situation where the government should step in, to protect the ppl from a corporation that is trying buy up consumer choices for no other reason than to line their pockets. And i'd just as soon have my tax money pay for this as anything.
Seriously???
In At&t's argument for the merger, they are claiming that this will be good for competition and create jobs. LMFAO the opposite of both those are probably true. wow.
Re: question...
I realize...but he specifically says this is at the core of how android works. If that were the case, why would they even hesitate to go after all of the OEMs as well as google.
question...
Why would Apple single out HTC if this were true? Why not all the OEMs and Google?
Re: In Fact....
Nobody would ever pretend that a blackberry uses that much data. But there's no way an iphone can use more data than any other high end android phone.
first time...
I've ever wished Sprint were a GSM carrier. I would order one of these unlocked from Europe if I could. Would be nice with the $99 touchpad I just got :)
Re: STFU Sprint!
Oddly enough i live in the Raleigh area too...usually get like 3-6 Mbps down on my EVO on 4G. HOWEVER i think somethin has been goin on the last few weeks in this area, ive noticed it being alot slower as well, like out of the ordinary slow.
Re: STFU Sprint!
So much wrong with this idiotic comment it makes my head hurt.
-Coverage, you mean second best in the country and only marginally behind verizon?
-Reliability? You mean how every survey from the last 2 yrs as Sprint coming 1st or 2nd in fewest dropped calls.
-Customer Service? Almost shouldnt even justify this. Sprint's customer service is blowing everyone else away right now. Keep trying troll. Do some research.
-Wi-Max buildout, lets compare it with at&ts LTE rollout...yea thought so.
You're a joke. Grow ...
Re: STFU Sprint!
"I also expect you to point such transgressions on decor to even people you may agree with."
-dont worry he and i have debated even tho we seem to be on the same side on most issues. :wink:
"Sprint right now is going to be sitting on a pot of 800mhz spectrum. Don't see them making plans"
-Then you arent doing any research. Google Sprint Network Vision then come back and talk. I dont intend to do your homework for ...
Re: STFU Sprint!
Except what does Sprint have an F in?? Yeah your clever analogy isnt as clever as you thought.
wish we could edit our comments
Got distracted while typing and that last sentence is all fubar. :lol:
Re: STFU Sprint!
They are, but to some up my other reply to you. You're wrong.
Re: STFU Sprint!
A. Sprint is using their spectrum. Hence the network upgrades taking place over the next 4 years and the 4G rollout.
B. Sprint isnt trying to buy another company and using the excuse that they don't have enough spectrum, which is what at&t is doing.
Sprint called at&t on their BS. That's it. The mngment of at&t is either too dumb to run their network upgrades correctly, or too shady and is lying about their ability to update it just to ...
Re: HTC over Samsung any day
Seen this a few time all of a sudden the last week, not just Epics (all samsungs tho). Im guessing some bad update Sammy sent out caused it, really strange.
FYI...You can fix the txting error just by clearing out the stored messaging and phone data. Then restarting the phone.
What took so long?
If I were an investor or a member of Rim's board i'd have called for this 2 yrs ago when the 10th identical curve came out.
Re: OR...
He corrected somebody who was clearly not well informed on how the technology works. Considering all the other misinformation usually on these boards, I'd thank him. Not everything needs a smart ass response.
I know this is ironic, coming form the normal smart ass in the room, but its all about timing.
Re: ok??
The dream land you draw your facts from must be an interesting place...smh.
Re: I can't choose between the HTC Evo Shift and the Samsung Epic
Its all personal preference, but in sheer size, the EVO touch keyboard is bigger than most physical keyboards cuz of the screen size. I have the reg EVO.
Re: I can't choose between the HTC Evo Shift and the Samsung Epic
On paper it looks slower, but its a new 800mhz processor thats just as fast as the older 1gh processor in the evo. The shift quite often will seem snappier actually cuz of the increased rom/ram.
EVO 2.3 Update question
On my rooted EVO i use a 2.2 rom. Is it safe to do the official 2.3 update? Or will it screw everything up?
Re: I can't choose between the HTC Evo Shift and the Samsung Epic
Main differences:
-Epic screen is better for video/movie watching.
-Epic has a front camera for video calling.
-I personally (keyword, personal preference..but this seems to be the web consensus) like HTC Sense WAY better than touch wiz on the Epic. Like seriously, its alot better. Same with HTC's widgets.
-HTC is better about providing updates, the EVO is getting 2.3 on June 6th. Cant imagine the Shift would be far behind. It took sammy over 6 mnths just to get 2.2 out ...
Re: Seems
Marketing trick? Yes, kinda. But at the same time its more accurate isnt it? How often to ppl travel to where there are no ppl? Telling me a phone will work almost everywhere there are ppl is clear enough for me.
Im no expert...
but hopefully this means if Sprint switches to using that 800mhz spectrum for LTE than this phone will stil be compatable. That could be huge. But again, i dont know how all that would work.
