Whats everyone. Just moved here from an HTC amaze 4g. After 6 amazes, yeah I kept getting hardware problems mostly screen problems. I got sick of it. I decide to move away from HTC because always hardware problems. Dont get me wrong though it was a awesome phone. Anyways, see how my experience is.

I rooted one of them but I unrooted and locked the bootloader again. But when I went to sams club Tmobile the rep told me rooted or not if its a hardware problem like what I had they'll still do the exchange.

I was thinking after the first one to switch already but I really wanted the camera from the amaze. I'm a Photographer so it was hard but after taking a good hard look, the s2 didn't have that much of a difference. Plus when I finally did the switch, this phone was on sale for 88 bucks. I paid 188 for the amaze. So when I did switch I got money back because they had to honor the sale price. So I got a better phone for me and for 100 bucks back

It seems all they're doing is vomiting phones to us and rushing these damn incomplete devices. The sensation had an amazing community but nothing to save it's hardware and battery problems. These stupid companies need to slow down and make something great. I'm an HTC fan and just waiting for them to make something nice that I can replace my Galaxy with. Sorry guys.

The only problem that HTC devices have imo is Sense. The G1 was great for the couple years I had it. Look at the G2!! Great phone because it's running vanilla Android.
Sense = Fail
Always syncing in the background, taking up resources, and bogging the phone down. ESPECIALLY on the Mytouch 3G slide (oh what a mess that phone is). Every time someone walks into my store with a MT3G slide i think, "oh boy here we go" lol
Even on the HD2 windows phone!! The solution we gave a lot of customers was to turn Sense off and it solved pretty much everyone's problems with that phone.
Lol couldn't agree more. Sense is definitely eye candy, but i end up removing most of the stuff with titanium backup. I enjoy some things from there but eh. Seems to me like the mt4g was the last quality phone by them. The one with the good display at least. I remember getting 4 hours display time with that bad boy and that was running sense. Glad we have tdj and rk from there lol

I hear ya haha. I used to hate WM6.5 sooo much and was super hyped when I found out android had been ported over. That phone was one of the best over ever had, si many customization option when it came to ROMs. They even have ICS already. I would have kept it had it not been for the catastrophic drop that ruined the display

5 more days!!!! such an agony waiting for 5 more days for it to arrive...
We really, really need more posts like this that highlight the good vibes about this phone. I've been reading through this forum and most everyone is just posting about problems they are having.
Monday is when my phone will arrive. I can't wait to see how it compares to my Sensation 4G!
As I just posted in the "Would you buy it again" thread, YES! I have had none of the problems some people are complaining of. Naturally, if you are having an issue, you are more likely to post about it, whereas if everything is running smoothly, you're too busy enjoying your new phone to post about it.
So far this phone is excellent. I just picked mine up today from T-Mobile and I'm loving every minute of it. No lag, super fast (both data and OS), very decent camera, GPS locks surprisingly fast, gorgeous large screen (minus the resolution which I don't really notice) etc. I would definitely recommend this phone. I am coming from the Sensation and I do not have the wifi death grip issue and 4g signal seems excellent.

couldn't be happier. I busted the screen on my SG1 about a month ago (crack down the screen but still operational) and have been waiting patiently for this. Can't wait for root so that i can get rid of all the bloatware.
This is my second day with this phone and I honestly love it! The last phone I really enjoyed was the MYTOUCH 4g. I had the nexus 1 (cool phone), Samsung vibrant (Boooo bad Samsung and carrier support plus lag), then the MYTOUCH 4G ( best single core phone ever hands down!) than I tried windows 7 and got the HTC HD7 (very nice experience, now with mango it should be great) , than got the sensation 4G ( very disappointing experience considering it was my first dual core phone, laggy, returned 3 phones. Thanks to the devs my experience with it was good before I sold it) and now the T-mobile Galaxy SII ( best phone I've owned so far). This phone is awesome. I took it to my job today and let my coworkers play with it ( people who have no knowledge of specs usually give you honest opinions) everyone says the screen is incredible, the phone is big, it's very fast, it's light and thin, it feels cheap ect... Bottom line is this phone is awesome. The screen resolution is not a deal breaker at all it's not even pixelated. I'm glad they got rid of the pentile.
Im ocd and ALWAYS find something i dislike about every phone. The only thing i dont like...cant change the ugly ass lockscreen image
This phone is sweet and im loving the 10+ Mbps data speeds i get now. I havent had a single issue yet and havent put it down since i got it.

I'm completely addicted to my phone, like most people on XDA, I mean I m on it 24/7 as soon as I wake up, and no for phone call or text (it actually bothers me) Idk what to do, flashing roms, kernels, checking for updates, does anyone feel the same, that's one the reason I had an iPhone I was limited to what could I do on it, was going more to the gym and what not, I know I can limit myself but is hard, anyone else wants to admit they are too? Anything that you have done to get away with it? And has it work?
I get emails and there not even important, going back 4 years ago is when started, getting the evo a few years back made it worse, I could actually watch hd youtube on it and stop using the computer less and less, where I work I'm the GM and I could check my phone whenever I want and that's bad, I mean looking at might stats I could spent up to 6 hours with my screen on, now it feel like a job to check my phone then anything else, you see xda members asking for the next update or when cyanogen is releasing his work on XDA, is crazy to admitted but truth at the same time, even think of unrooting my phone sometimes and I can't just give it up, anyways guys I just want to see how many people feel the same way, thank you for reading
Thanks for the responses xda members

Hello my name is JayVee and I am also addicted to my phone. I have not gotten rid of that just new feeling you get with a gadget. There's no slowing down with this one. I listen to music, browse the Web, watch YouTube vids, and play games on this thing all day. I even refresh my twitter feeds 1000x per day on here. I use it more than my 2 computers. The first thing I do when I wake up is say good morning to my phone to wake it up and it feels so sweet when it listens. Makes me smile. My friends now call me antisocial because I'm on my phone more than I talk to them when we hang out. Idc tho.

Funny. Not because the addiction but because after they showed it was Windows phone, people seemed to not care as much..
So my name is Joseph and I am also an addict lol. Thanks for your honesty. I started with an HD2. I didn't even know about rooting or flashing and thought Winmo 6.5 was great lol. Then my buddy Wilfred turned me to the XDA site and it's been full on every since. My wife and I have always had the same phone HD2 and now Galaxy SII. When I wasn't fooling around with mine I was trying to doctor up her phone. I can't tell you how many times I have been up all night trying to fix something I broke on her HD2. oops lol. She would get so mad because I would accidentally erase all her apps and have to start over. ( During my noob phase ) But the only thing to do is sometimes just TURN IT OFF! I can hardly do it but sometimes thats the only way. I will leave it upstairs while we hang out downstairs so she does't get mad. I just got a great deal on the SSGSII and now I wish I had've waited on the SIII. lol. Oh well. :silly:
ADDICTED! you bet, I do my HTC-Hd2, mytouch4g, SamNote i717, and this one. Checking for anything to do on any of them, lucky for me the wife is all into it with, also a manager, so I am on them all day also...it's a DRUG...hehe

So I recently had a friend tell me his s3 hasnt been doing very well for him speed and service wise(he has sprint) and I did some digging around on google and some forums to try to help him out.. and the more I researched the more I saw posts about all the issues with the s3... problems with it charging to horrible battery and reception to other things I can't remember now.. and Im here thinking to my self.. man I LOVE THIS DEVICE. On full stock rooted I really have no issues.. my battery lasts reception is ok for me in Miami.. not the best but certainly not bad. I really dont have any problems that would make me want to return the phone. Im curious to know how other users feel about this beast and what some of your experiences are... tips and general experiences are welcome..

Is that a serious question
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
I think i agree with your friend. The Sprint's S3 does suck. My uncle has a Sprint S3 and it is a bit laggy compared to mine...so maybe its not the phone itself, but the network carrier. So radio/baseband has to be culprit for everything thats weighing the phone down.
I also had the s2 international version that worked flawless (and I flashed the hell out of that thing) but my sprint buddies all had complaints..
I forgot to mention in OP that some of the bad reviews I read also included our tmobile model.. but I am incredibly happy with mine.

And remember, most people who have no problens with the phone aren't going to post about it online. Its much easier to find out what went wrong for people because they always come online loking for help!
That silent majority is, I imagine, quite massive considering the millions of these phones that have been sold! That's a lot of happy people going about their lives without ever needing to seach for help!

So you change ROMS during the week/weekend? I never thought of doing that - I guess Titanium helps? Sorry. I'm still a slight N00b. I just rooted but am keeping it stock for now. I just Dl'd Titanium but am confused on how to use it. Guess that's for another thread lol.
Is there a way to make sure titanium doesn't restore bad backup data? (I don't use it for this reason. Wanna make sure my ROM stays clean)

I had the Sensation, and then the Amaze before my S3. It's worth upgrading for the screen quality and the screen size. The Amaze screen is absolute **** compared to the screen on the S3. Otherwise, it's not dramatically faster, and honestly overall, not a much better phone, save for the screen. Is it better? Yes, but if I still had my Amaze and my upgrade today, I'd probably wait for the One X+ or the Note 2.

I didn't have to convince her...it was either she gets a low-mid range smart phone or she gets the Amaze. She was happy with either. I bought the GS3 btw. I like that I can use the PS3 controller now (the app didn't support the HTC chipset) and she screen is a lot better.

If your problem is only with large screen then go for it! Because when I bought my S3, my first thought in mind after unboxing was "seriously, why did I even buy this huge phone" (saw S3 first time). Now I don't regret having large screen and I love it now. I'm sure you will get used with it also and start loving the 5" 1920x1080p screen.

Now I don't regret having large screen and I love it now. I'm sure you will get used with it also and start loving the 5" 1920x1080p screen.

My co-worker has it, so I have had a chance to play with it already. It's not much bigger than the E4GT, but I want a phone where I can reach across with my thumb without having my palm activating stuffs on the edge of the screen.
The other reason is the E4GT just start working well enough after all these years, so I'll wait for more stable ROMs first

That's good that you used it already and as you wish.

More stable? I think the ROMs coming out now fire this device are the most stable ones I have ever used, but I'm coming from the EVO Shift.

I'm waiting for the SG4 variant called the Active. Milspec, waterproof, etc. Other than that, I want a Note 2 (yeah, the pixel density isn't as high as the SG4 but whatever).
I don't understand people by saying can I buy this or wait
For what I'm waiting special at this time. I wish my contract could upgrade now. S4 and HTC one both phones are best why not to enjoy with this phone on time . instead of waiting unknown phone and date release come on falks wake up

I would just upgrade. I personally want the HTC One. But I can't upgrade for another year.

The non-removable battery scares me a bit. What is the solution for when it wears out?

I would assume the manufacture warranty would cover it but I'm not sure. Also, it's just my personal preference. I miss HTC and there build quality. The S4 is nice, I would upgrade to it if I wanted another Samsung.

I don't think so. Standard warranties are one year. If it's out of that year, I don't think they'll cover it.

If it last you another year, your upgrade is ready and you get a new phone. But who knows. Go with what you feel comfortable with.
Unremovable battery is not big deal
