So my mom has an upgrade and really wants an Evo. She said shed be willing to trade if I bought the et4g on her upgrade so I could get a shiny new epic touch and she could have a miui'd evo. Heres my question to all you new et4g owners: what are the problems you've been experiencing so far? Either hardware or software I just want to know what I'll be jumping into after dropping 200 dollars...

none so far...smooth as my bottom...
I say, go right ahead and do it and don't even look back! Not to many people have the opportunity. Just traded my evo 4g for it there isn't one phone out now that can beat this. The battery is super awesome especially if coming from an evo. The browser is awesome get full sites using about:useragent, it's lightweight and the size of the screen is awesome. I Just wish it was the 5.3" that is out in Europe.
Dude... Get it! You will not regret it. There is a poll around here and the last time I looked, there are just as many evo users as there is epic1 users that moved to this phone

Tits eh? Couldn't have said it better myself. I have this sudden urge to lick the phone, now look what you've done.
I haven't found any bugs yet.
Phone's running perfectly for me. Sprint and Samsung have delivered well thus far.
There are only 2 things that I have found not working as of now, 1 being the Social Hub isn't allowing us to log in, and the other is the weather widget which isn't automatically changing location.
This is by far the BEST phone out as of now! I've been from EVO 4G, to EVO 3D, and I personally am not missing either 1 now. Couldn't of said the same going from the 4G to the 3D, as it was noticeably faster, but I really was never awed! The SII has definitely awed me again! Sorta like when we all first got our 4G's...
If you can make the switch, don't hesitate, and make sure you kiss your mom for taking your EVO off you and getting the SII
do it, you wont regret it.
i dropped my evo for this and it is well worth it!
I'm leaving my evo4g its been very good to be, so I will not dam the bridge I have crossed, but sadly say he will be missed.

I think it would be a little foolhardy to upgrade right now. Let the early adopters be the beta testers. Also, we don't know what will happen with iP5, Nexus', and Ice Cream Sandwich around the corner. Sit back and wait another month or two.

I mentioned two phone names and one operating system, none of the three of which have been since by outsiders. So how exactly are you coming to the conclusion that your phone is "easily ten times better than those phones"?

Your argument depends on there never being a good time to upgrade, that there is no such thing as a release cycle or big releases. If a new and improved phone came out every day or we knew nothing about future products and future release dates, your oft repeated but ill thought out argument would be true. In fact, the industry does work on cycles and there are big product releases so it only makes sense to purchase with those in mind.

You seem uniformed and blind to the difference between "big releases" and hype. The SGSII is a huge release and one of the most highly anticipated Android phones ever. Going back to your "beta tester" comment, the SGSII has been out for months and has earned near perfect ratings across the board. The ET4G is just a variant so please don't go down that road.

I think this devise is gonna be top notch for along time. I was worried that when Prime dropped I would regret getting E4GT but after having it for a couple days Im happy I got it. I love TW4 it works smooth and fast and if E4GT gets good support from the top delvs it will stay on or near the top for a long time. I always thought the Epic4G was way better hardware than the EVO and look how that turned out.
Get this phone and dont look back

"I can't steal the partner's thunder." -Matias Duarte on The Verge
Said it would come out in November, can't steal ...Verizon's thunder... or maybe "partner"s was plural.. like.. partners thunder, and not partner's thunder lol.. im analyzing the shizzle out of this but still..
so there that is btw i watched 30 mins of the show so far, im liking it.
Edit: so hes not running the "final" build on his own nexus, its a week old.. meaning the final build hasnt been released yet, so throw out those worries about "bugs" that p3droid was talking about >.> also hes using the Verizon LTE model since he said "its still pretty thin" and didnt let the host hold the phone for a close up shot, and covered the back with his palm deliberately while holding it

hey marton ive had this burning question and you seem pretty knowledgeable on a lot of stuff so... do you knwo if there is a size difference between a 16GB internal storage chip and a 32GB internal storage chip (or whatever they are :x)
Just asking to see if maybe the GSM Nexus is too thin to include the 32GB storage

Depends how they do it. If they literally replace the 16gb with a 32gb chip, no there's no negligible difference.
If they go the arguably cheaper route to get 32gb, it means using 2x16gb chips, and yes it'll be thicker (obviously).
We don't know what they're doing though.

ah heard it now, the host spoke over him when he said "we're not selling it"
yeah i think he was just relating that sentence to the next one that says he cant steal the partners thunder.. i dont think he literally meant he (Google) is not going to sell the NexIII
its hard to explain but its like... he was relating the circumstances..that because he isnt the one selling it, its not his announcement to make... like, giving a reason as to why he cant announce it...
so.. hopefully this made sense :x lol, but yeah i firmly believe he wasn't directly stating that Google will not sell it at all.
The way he said it doesn't directly mean that Google isn't going to sell it, directly. What he said just means that since the release date hasn't yet been offered, and Verizon is the main "partner" for the device, it is most likely part of the contractual agreement with Verizon that *they* be the ones to announce the release date.
El Goog may yet still be selling the device unlocked, but Verizon is going to be the first one to spill the release date details in the United States. Once that happens, Google (and anyone else that might be offering the device) will spill the rest.
now im not on verizon and the only reason im coming over is for this phone. (BE WARNED - RANT COMING)
I've been on sprint for about 10 years now, the past 3 years i have been on an employee plan paying 30$/month for unlimited everything. The sad thing is, i feel bad for the people paying full price on sprint because im located in Rochester NY and sprint service should be great here but i rarely get service indoor's recently. 4G is a joke and Rochester was one of the first places to get it turned on. So im happy to move to a better network and brought myself to pay the extra $ for the service.... so enough about how sprints network is going down hill and on to how Verizon F***ED this launch up royally.
Maybe i hate Verizon for not mentioning a word about this phone. Maybe its because the Galaxy Nexus has been out for almost a month overseas. Maybe its because i feel like not only have i been waiting for this phone but i've also been waiting for Google to release an exciting new OS. Maybe it's the fact that i KNOW this phone can compete in the market as one of the best phones and not to mention its the flagship phone from Google that can kick start features like NFC and such. but then i think to myself... What did i just see when i turned on the TV or when i went to that website. ADs for the RAZR... THE RAZR.... ARE U KIDDING ME?
okay okay, i understand, back in 2003 it was the coolest phone on the block. TIMES HAVE CHANGED, Verizon knewwwwww they were getting the Nexus, and they hate they can't call it Droid. the name droid (personal opinion) is UGLY. Im not saying Galaxy Nexus is any better but i dont want to feel like i have a robot in my pocket. The Razr just came at the wrong time and VZ spent to much money with s$itty advertising like they always do.
I was really really hoping to see some type of great marketing strategy by verizon starting this week. Something along the lines of this:
Mon Night Football. 5 to 10 second commercial, completely white background and just out the nexus right in the middle of the high def screen. no music. mahyeb a piano key or smething, with just a shot of this beauty... then at the very end, flash Verizon so people know, that phone is coming to VZ, wow!!?? (and yes i would love to see a "with Google" slapped in there somewhere but we all know Verizon would have a heart attack promoting anyone but themselves)
and keep showing the commercial every day with a count down until the release date (which i was hoping the 9th) so it would have been even sweeter to see that commercial knowing i can freakin get that this week!?!
people know the verizon brand, they like the verizon brand becuase its associated with a good network. FOCUS ON YOUR PRODUCT, THE BEST ONE U HAVE. make people say, woahhhhhh what was that???? and im not talking about the people like us who wait and wait and wait knowing we will hold out for this, im talking about your average consumer, the one who see's a product and says, damn thats good looking, i WANT that. i WANT THAT NEOWWWZ!
(hell i even made a s$hitty youtube video to get my point across)
but no. No commercials, no internet Ad's, only one spot on thier website to put your email in a box (which NO ONE likes giving out) for more information....
Verizon, you messed up. You had a chance to make a boat load even more of cash and you missed out. im not even your customer yet and i dread the fact ill be stuck with you for two years.
and now we have this, no Google wallet. im highly confident once developers get their hands on this phone they will find a way to make it work, but instead Verizon points the finger and says its not them. WHY IN THE HELL WOULD GOOGLE NOT WANT TO HELP ITS OWN NEW SERVICE?!? It just doesnt make sense.........
alright, i just blacked out with anger/frustration while typing this so i hope it makes sense and i hope other people see what im seeing...
oh, and one last note.. This ones for you Google. i hope you paid attention to this whole launch. i hope you learned your leson about dancing with the RED DEVIL. They will take your masterpiece and piss all over it.
In my opinion the main problem with this launch is that Google and Samsung allowed Verizon to take control of it. I hate to compare to Apple, but they take full control of their product launches and do not allow the carriers to tamper in any way. Samsung and Google should have grown some balls and had the phone launched their way. If Verizon did not want to play ball then they just release the unlocked version here as they did in the past.
Cool story bro. Lol @ video. Lame but funny.

Hmm, that's weird. My company spends just shy of $100k a year on Verizon devices (somewhere around ~800 lines currently)...and my rep is just as unable to get one to sell as anyone else.
And he is the rep for 5 other companies around our size.
I think there's a much better chance you're a Verizon employee or were able to play with one in the immediate vicinity.
Your bigger rant should be how a company the size of VZW can hose their entire LTE network with each introduction of a new device.

Yeah, and you can bet that the resolution will be quiet and nothing else ever said of this outage.
"Isolated" will be the spin. I was going to head over to Verizon and eBay the GSM GNEX I have, but I just can't fork over $85 for a tiered plan when I have unlimited on ATT for $40 after taxes (2nd line on plan).
Oh well.

Not saying I necessarily don't believe you, just saying the "don't sell yet" thing is pretty hard...they probably aren't even allowing the devices to activate on the network yet.
Beyond that, not a single person knows the date it's releasing now. The update said "indefinite", meaning nobody knows for sure. It's just suspected for next week, at the moment.
I won't promise anything but I will call rep tomorrow for some info

I disagree.
Seriously. Think about it from Verizon's perspective. Why would they put money and advertising behind the Nexus phone when they have the Rezound and Razr that just came out and are of similar specs? They control the user experience on those devices and can put their subscription apps preloaded on them. Not true with the Galaxy Nexus. Of course they're going to market the hell out of the devices that make them more money.
That said, I agree that Samsung/Google should have taken more charge with this launch. Nexus devices are about no compromise, pure Android experiences, and no carrier/OEM tampering. What I've seen of the Verizon version has contradicted this in a few ways before the phone is even out. Makes me very happy I got the GSM version. But at least the LTE one is unlocked and there will be plenty of ROMs and support for it.

Its fun to joke about, but seriously do this! I saw someone in one of the early Expansys/Clove/Handtec threads (one of the Euro importers) report that he missed delivery of the phone, and had to go pick it up at the distribution hub. He signed for the package, which indicates that he took the package and was OK with the condition of the materials. He then opened the box when he got home and found that someone at the shipping co had opened the box, taken the phone, and replaced it with something of similar weight. Extremely rough because it is super troublesome to deal with the shipping co and especially the importer who's based outside the US.
I plan on opening mine at the counter at FedEx when I go to pick it up. Not gonna take that kinda chance. I also requested the package be held at the distribution center, rather than taking a chance that I miss delivery and it sits on the truck for too long. Super tinfoil hat, but damn its a $575 package, I'm gonna check that **** first.

Same here. I want to at least have time to mess around with it in the store before I get it.
Only a handful of stores got them in today, and they were supposedly LTE launch cities. The full release was pushed back to the 28th. I got mine in today, and all I can say is: EPIC.

Just wanted to update everyone on my visit to the Sprint store today. I went by the local Sprint store here earlier and I was also told that the release of the SGIII to them got pushed back. They told me that they could get them as early as next week, but there was a chance they would not get them until the 1st of July. At any rate, I went ahead and placed my order and got put on the waiting list. I was waiting patiently, yet anxiously, and expecting to hear the lady at the store tell me that I was like number 5 million to be on the list...LOL...Come to find out, I was only the 5th person to order one...which is good because that will mean I will get mine out of the first batch they get. Now I get to sit and impatiently wait...LOL
Cheers!
I went to the Sprint store today as well and they said they have to push it back because of Samsung not being able to meet up with the pre order demand. Then I pulled one of the reps over on the side and asked him if this has anything to do with Apple trying to sue Samsung for S-Voice. He replied, "Apple will do anything to delay the release of other phones."
So there is your reason for the delay ladies and gentlemen

Um, sorry but doubtful. A sprint store guy wouldnt know more than a vast internet full of info leakers. (including ISN). Right now theres no indication that Apple has anything to do with anything. People got their 16 gb'ers today, and all signs point to other shipments soon or in progress. This smells exactly what it is, a supply problem.
I went by my Sprint store today. They didn't have the phone, but they had cases for the phone for sale...

Same here I need to hold a product before I buy it. But my heart is set on it just need my mind set on it..... Plus I still need to decide color.... I like white but think it might get old after a while.... Plus then case options are limited compared to darker tones.

same here, want to test it out ... kinda disappointed, wanted the UK version out here ... but lets see
I skipped pre ordering because I figured that it wasn't really worth tying up my money for a whole month. Kind of regretting it now. I've called every Sprint, Best Buy, and Radio Shack near me and no one has it on this side of Atlanta. Super bummed.

Only a handful of stores got them in today, and they were supposedly LTE launch cities. The full release was pushed back to the 28th. I got mine in today, and all I can say is: EPIC.

Sorry to disagree, but the consensus is that no stores, sprint or authoriized retailers, have gotten these in yet anywhere. If u know of any specific locations that have, however, of course I'd be interested to know.
