No case comes w/ the phone???

I just got my new slide a couple of days ago & just realized the it didn't come w/ anything to put it in. The G1 had a case that was black and the mytouch 3G had that black case that had those strings. I wonder why we didn't get anything w/ the slide? You would think people would want something for it seeing as we (or @ least i) had one w/ my G1 and MyTouch 3G (had to get rid of in less than 2 days cuz having no physical keyboard drove me crazy). What do u think or how do u guys feel about this???

[Q] just a simple question I have that will decide wether I stay w/ HTC/get and i****

THE ONLY THING I WANNA KNOW is if it's true that for 90$ HTC (not t-mo, not whatever, only HTC) will give me a new phone (because mine fell to the floor from a really high height, and while everything works, it's really SCRATCHED, and the top part (the screen, the part you slide) got separated from the keyboard (now there's a gap between both middle parts). IT STILL SLIDES perfectly. Anticipated thanks.. OH, AND IN CASE IT IS TRUE (the 90$ thing), where do I fill a form or something like that?

oh, and btw I live in Paraguay (south america, no htc here).. and in case the 90$ thing isn't true.. what else can I do to fix my Slide?

Dude, you already have a thread you started about the same exact thing! You couldnt find it? Seems mulitple threads about the same thing is becoming more popular with people these days.

Have you tried contacting HTC directly?

Htc will tell you yes or no. All we can say is maybe. Maybe make a new thread and someone from htc will see and reply to it...

Sorry to burst your bubble. But the captivate isn't 4G. The only 4G LTE phones VZW has now are the HTC Thunderbolt, Samsung Droid Charge, and the LG Revolution.
I'm just waiting for a dual core LTE phone. But I'm in no hurry, upgrade isn't till middle of next year.

but, no, the incredible is a 3G Smartphone, as it says on the box, no way to make it 4g connectable
as said before, Verizon does have another 4g phone on the way (the bionic) but, as of right now, they only have 3 on sale.

i just love how iPhone users come to me with my rooted droid inc, and all like "i have the 3 gees and i have the wifi, and stuff" and continue to blab about crap they have no idea how to work. i mean, if you have it, fine, just don't try to talk to me about the phone and "how it works, and i am a developer" when you don't even know how to make phonecalls on the damn thing.

EVO LTE or GSIII?

What are you planning on upgrading to? I think I'll be going to the GSIII unless the specs end up being a flop.

Galaxy S III...no questions about it. I'm not due to upgrade til november, but since I'll be graduating next month, I may just pony up and 'treat' myself.

One exists. The other does not. So, this question is a little premature.

I'm actually planning on upgrading to the Galaxy Nexus.

Sure I was hoping that the evo LTE would look much better, but it has amazing specs. I think I am going to grab it, stick my evo on a pre-paid, so I can still play with it of course.

I can't stand the build quality of any Samsung I've touched. I preordered my OG Evo, and been happy ever since. Tempted to preorder Evo lte, but would sure like to check out build quality first. I hated the materials they used on Evo 3d.

Get to know the HTC EVO 4G LTE

I've been considering the Evo 4G LTE but thing I hate about it is the fact that it does not have a removable battery.

Evo 4G LTE
I would probably get the Evo Lte depending on how well the GS3 performs. I played with the GS2 and honestly, it was garbage. I'm still rocking the original Evo because the 3D was a let down. Hope this helps!

EVO LTE is my choice. My OG is still the best for me. Never let me down even when I did by dropping it several times. Just keeps going and going. I am putting my money on HTC.

Never got 4G on Sprint (HTC Supersonic)

Hello everyone, I hope to check this thread for updates (read: I'm so dumb I don't check for thread updates often *laughs*).
Anyway, as the title says, I never got 4G on my phone, even before rooting it! I obtained this phone, new, around the time Sprint (began) started adding a extra rate for all smartphones (read: all smartphones will be more expensive than "simple" phones on same plan).
I'm wondering how to get 4G on my phone that is running Cyanogenmod. I am well-versed in Linux, so if the adb shell or the bootloader is required to fix, I can follow the steps you provide. Or should I just accuse Sprint for giving me a defective phone those many, many years ago, even though I never got 4G in the first place? (since my phone is rooted atm, I doubt I could win a court case.)
I appreciate any help, even if you do not know how to fix this. (read: asking around or just reading this)

4G and wimax are the same thing if you didn't know.
And OP, if you are on an ICS Rom or a JB Rom, you will not have wimax. For all you know, you might not even have 4G service in range of where you live. I personally have never even connected to a 4G network.

i'm referring to the standard 4G pn Sprint (or whatever 4G was said to be had on "Sprint HTC Evo 4G" by Sprint)
EDIT: i'm well within the 4G area almost all day normally

From my understand wimax AND Lte use different radios hence why any of the new lte phones like the GS3 or evo are stuck on 3g network until LTE rolls out in the area you live. Also he stated he couldn't access 4g even before so he would be on a stock gb

They are not putting up old towers just lte transmitters. They use all the same till they discontinue 3g.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

And if you never have been able to get 4g then I would have brought the phone back to sprint. All their 4g phones should access it if your in the coverage zone.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

If you have had the phone for more than 6 months, which it sounds like you have, you should un-root it and take it to sprint. If that is you want 4g service. The unrooting process is generally about the same in difficulty as rooting the phone was, so if you figured that out you should be able to get it backto stock. The process is different depending on your HBoot version and how you rooted it in the first place. If you want to get your 4g fixed, post your HBoot version and root method and someone will point the way to unrooting the phone.
(to get the HBoot version, pull the battery, put it back in, hold vol down, and power on the phone. You should get into the bootloader and the HBoot version should be listed there.)

I assumed it was due to not having the 4G plan before that caused my phone to never get 4G with the plans change (read: Sprint changed plan details). I should of thought of turning it in sooner, but I was not 100% smart back then (nor will I ever be *laughs*)

I would bring it into a store and get it tested to see if it works after you unroot, my sprint store doesn't care about root but that might not bevl the case. Then if it really doesn't work I would ***** and tell them to look up your account to show you never used 4g and see if the will give you a comp on your account.
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium

I never noticed any difference in speed the few times I was in California where there was 4g. I live in AZ and with sprint there is no 4g service but we still pay the fee :/

I doubt unrooting it will fully unroot it (I did edit some startup scripts since i've rooted which seemed to have no impact on my data connection (mostly for ext2 mount point on a directory "/mnt/sdcard/sd-ext" which I removed due to delayed sdcard mounting--now I use a script I manually run when I want to ... offtopic sorry >.> ), so idk if a full unroot is possible.
EDIT: *scrolls back on posts* I read that flashing someone else's radio (backed up from their device) can prevent both from using 4G at the same time. tbh, I don't know if I ever did (I hope not)
Sent from my HTC Evo 4G using Tapatalk (ex-GetJar version)

*hopes this doesn't count as a double post*
Somehow I'm getting 4G atm... but it is in a place I tried before (many moons ago). Strange indeed.
What I just don't get is why it is now working. Did I really flash someone else's Radio? If so, was someone else with that "4G login credientals" always on when I tried before? If not, was Sprint lying to me on their online map for 3G/4G coverage?
EDIT: I want to leave this open to see if anyone has any idea as to why it was failing. Another strange finding is that it is a 1 of 3 bars 4G signal according to Cyanogenmod's standard indicator. ( +1 for tethering without having to pay over $100 USD total on Sprint)
Sent from my laptop without any glorious Pixel Shader or "real" Virtulization support.

I've never had wimax signal at my house. Or city.
We are listed as 4g service area for "clear" wimax broadband, but they also state that it is currently not being sold here. That tells me the switch hasn't been flipped on it yet.
There is no sprint wimax one city over but they flipped the switch on "clear" broadband wimax and it's FAST.... If I get signal (its very spotty) ... . 7.4mb down. 1.14mb up.
Edit:
I was searching the intarwebz and it looks like anything more than 2 miles from the tower is pushing it for signal.
I also have the understanding that the 10$ smartphone fee is not just for 4g, but more so the nature of the beast. We have always on, always connected/pinging data devices.
