New phone choice help needed.

I am having Sprint send me a new EVO due a **** load or issues.. my mother is allowing me to use her upgrade after they begin to ship my replacements tomorrow. I'm going to best buy and they have 4G phones....
*HTC EVO 3D
*SAMSUNG EPIC 4G
*SAMSUNG NEXUS S 4G
HTC EVO 4G
HTC EVO SHIFT 4G
I am torn between them with the astriek marks.
Can someone please help me decide. I plan on rooting and what not.
My current EVO and hero will be traded back to bestbuy for around 189 bucks. So help me out peoples.
Thanks.

Well I already have an EVO and sprint is sending me another one in a few days once I order it tomorrow. I really do love sense but I have heard a lot of bad about the 3d. Like overheating, freezing, bad funny speakers and reception Nd WiFi issues. Now I'm usually always on WiFi and use bt. So Idk what will happen also I have literally no bars so reception might be even worse for me.

No more SuperSonics?

Well...I heard of some people actually messing up there EVOs and being given the EVO 3D in replacement....
But just last Tuesday I broke mine and I got my OG EVO in the mail last Thursday...I'm jus curious how and why didn't y'all jus ask for the EVO 4G?

Most just do an online claim through asurion so theres no one to talk to. And most see the e3d as an upgrade to og evo therefore not requesting an og but moving on to bigger and better places.

OiSeee...maybe me calling it in was the difference makes sense..i just didn't wanna get rid of my SuperSonic experience lol

Stores are pulling them from the sales floor. A week ago Sunday had to go to best buy to pick one up for my sister in law and tomorrow am ordering a epic touch from amazon wireless since they are a penny for upgrades and new lines.

They definitely have refurb replacements in stock you're not getting a 3D lol. If they don't they will say the 4G is on back order and either make you wait or give you a loaner or something. You won't get a 3D that easy.

Actually your wrong they are giving them out that easy cuz for
1. They wanted to give me a 3D and all that happen was the infamous charge port.
2. My wife's Epic4G gave out they replaced it with the 3D.
3. Her mom went in and talked to a repair guy about her Epic4G over heating and they gave her a 3D as well.
So yeah they are replacing your smart phone for the 3D if you DONT ASK FOR IT!

Now you've got me wondering if I should trash my 4G just to get a 3D as a replacement.

Bad karma, if you break it on purpose you won't get a shiny new E3D, you will get a crappy refurb ...
I don't believe in karma, but I had to throw that up! LOL

Called in to check, after reading the thread. One of the EVO's on my plan is having issues. The CSR asked if I wanted the EVO4G or the 3D. So I guess it might also have to do with luck of the draw :/ .

True, true amigo. My cousin was just offered one after shattering her screen. But she chose to stay OG, cuz she likes her white phone, and they wouldn't give her a white 3d. Lol.

Why not replace the screen on the evo and sale the new one or old one and make cash towards a new 3D I sold two evo 3Ds for 200$ each recently.. people don't really want them anymore currently :-(

what is the best device of HTC ?

Hi guys, i would like to know what is the best device in htc at this time. I thought that was DHD, but is possible that the best device were other one.
Thanks guys

Curious as to why you'd post this in the Samsung Nexus S forum?

Depends. What carrier do you want?
If your on sprint it would be the evo 3d. Its their newish flagship device. Took the place of this phone(p.s. this phone is close to a year and a half old.)

Couldn't tell you. I haven't kept up with HTC since getting my Nexus.
The EVO 4G was a great device. Since then I've had a Shift too and it was great as well.

ok great guys i have got DHD but i have changed gps.conf several times but doesnt work as well as it should to do. Some radio does that my gps dont take lot of satellite and other radios do that my batery drains completly... xD this is the reason cause im speakin about the best htc device, for test it.

I just paid my $120 ETF on Sprint and took advantage of the $0.01 deal on the HTC Rezound from Amazon. Looks like I'm finally off Sprint after 8 years or so.

Evo 4G is the best

even though I have the Evo 4g and use Sprint I recently spotted that new Rezound at Best Buy....looking at that I'd have to say, as far as NEWEST HTC DEVICE, the Rezound takes the cake.

EVO the best so far...
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

I just came off the EVO, and went to the Rezound. I used to say there wasn't a device that would make me not miss my EVO. I lied. The Rezound is that device. It's ridiculous.

U guys must not have read any reviews of the resound but asking what the is the best phone is an objective question. There is no rite or wrong answer. Its personal preference. Something you have to figure out for yourself...
Support TrevE! Fuh Q CIQ!

LOL! Coming from 4 different 3d's in less than 6 months. Wasn't going to give HTC another chance after that.

Had the 4g for two years, the lte for 29 days and this here galaxy s III for eleven days I believe.

I remember when my Evo 4G was brand new almost 2 years ago. It was the thinnest phone I had used at that point. It was so fast and perfect at everything. Putting MIUI on it made it even better. I've had my GS3 for a week, and I can't believe how old my Evo 4G feels when I use it now.
Oh, well. On to bigger and better things.

I had the EVO 4G and the EVO 3D.
SGS3 is rooted a few days later from June 21. Now running Blazer rom and ICS Domination Theme.
Rom dev is kinda slow around here but this phone is not even a month old here in US. MYN is developing some Warm Roms for this phone.

When you go into these forums there's no way you can avoid thinking about these things. It's quite addictive. Rooted my phone even before custom roms were available. Lol.

Got my OG back in March of 2010, loved that phone, by far the best I ever had (hell just look at my name) , flashed a new rom on it weekly. The first week after getting my SG3 I am like...what evo?

I had my evo for 2 years and I still can't part from it when I got my s3. I'm going to make it my mp3 for my car. Lol
Yeah I'm still running stock with root on the s3. Just waiting on myn and his team
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app

I've been debating the switch, but I love the Sense dialer, HTC widgets, and the keyboard that has directional arrows. Playing with the GS3 at the store didn't impress me that much. I know it has far better specs, but the UI didn't grab me.

Am I the only that is still passionate about their OG? Its separation anxiety. I just got my S3. Can I ask you guys since I am already here, any of you guys worried about flash counter? I had my S3 for less then 4 hours and I am itching at the fact that I did not root it yet.

I too was worried on the 1st day, then was over it and rooted the next day. Threw on TB and Droidwall and froze a lot of the bloat. Ran really smooth. Personally, I knew I wasn't going to keep the phone stocked forever. Sooner or later, its going to get rooted. In regards to the what if I need to return, my personal experience returning rooted phone thru sprint rep over the phone is a whole lot ez'r than instore rep's.

Don't let the launcher/dialer/widgets/keyboard keep you from a great phone. All those things are fixable; you can download third party apps to replace them. Check out the Go launcher/dialer/contacts/widgets/keyboard. There are plenty of options out there besides Go, but it's a good place to start. Seriously, the phone kicks so much butt.

[Q] You're no longer who you think you are!!!

Howdy!! I'm Soap, and owner of the amazing og Epic 4g running 4.1.1. I was on Sprint site hoping for a pre-order for the Note 2 when I saw this:
Code:
According to the Sprint site
[ATTACH]1343850[/ATTACH]
[FONT="Century Gothic"][COLOR="red"][SIZE="5"]it seems this phone is no longer Epic.[/SIZE][/COLOR][/FONT]
What do you think about the change?
Does it matter?
Is that the end of the Epic line?
Will there be an Epic 3?!
:cyclops::cyclops:

Probably sprint distancing themselves considering the legal trouble in re: apple.

Official Sprint support for the OG Epic is going. They are not longer issueing updates for it (IE Official ICS/JB) she stopped at GB (2.3.6 I believe) I just recently left the OG Epic to the touch (got a good deal on it) So Galaxy's are still good to go.. not even worried about Legal issues.. they are still slinging the S2 and S3 so jump on one if you like... (S2 should still be getting a an update, but not 100% sure) Hope this helps clarifiy.
This is only my thoughts on this.. not an official statement by anyone important, just how i understand it to be coming from the OG Epic side of XDA and folks on there..

Are you implying that the form should be renamed to Sprint Samsung Galaxy S II SPH-D710?

Yep. lol.. :silly:
I was responding to EOL on device... for some reason i thought pic was actually of the S2 (oddly i didn't look at mine sitting next to me! lol) been a long day at work.

Sprint is done with "EPIC" as samsung will not make carrier specific modifications as in EPIC and EPIC 4G TOUCH. Galaxy SIII is just Galaxy SIII.

Agreed! This is only the 2nd Epic I've needed, I drowned the first one. I'm using my upgrade to get my wife the Note 2 & keeping both our OG Epic's as wifi devices. Maybe then I'll finally sell back the only working Moments I ever owned!

Nice, I found my Epic Touch (S2) for $50 on Craigslist... Loving it.. I'm going to upgrade to the S3 later this year/early next year probaly, but wanted to mess with something different for now. Mom took the OG Epic inplace of her Photon. lol.. I'll prolly sell back this thing when i upgrade. It'll eat some of the cost.

So any idea if there will be another hwkb device? Or is it touch screen from now on? I remember something on the CM9 blogspot about the masses calling for another device with a full layout.

I agree with you. I was a little skeptical at first about going to a phone with out a keyboard, because all my previous ones had a keyboard. I actually like it a lot better, don't get me wrong though I do miss it sometimes lol

I just see friends (with out swype) struggling to enter text as I just smash words at about 45 WPM!! I don't think I could be happy without all my extra working parts

I thought i wouldnt be. But honestly, keyboard on the touch wih the larger screen isnt that bad.
