I am setting up a support group for epic users since we have lost our top status. Our phone only has single core and no 3d and no 4gb interal app storage and no sense 3.x.
We can meet online anytime and we can all say its still a great phone but now its not awesome just great

I'm eligible for an upgrade. I went to go play with an Evo 3D at Sprint, and happily left, Epic in hand.
(how is this a question?)
So just because are phone has no 3d its not awesome anymore
I think I know where this thread is headed....to sammiches! Sammiches for all before this thread gets closed.

Making a new thread every day?
The EVO3D really isn't that impressive, I played with an activated one about a week before it was actually released (for work, through a Sprint rep).
To start...
AMOLED screen wins hands down against any other display, including Retina.
New Sense had some neat features and the phone is definitely really fast out-of-the-box, but not any faster than the Epic with a good, reliable rom...
So I mean, if you want to run every application on your phone at once and not close anything, or don't know what a "Task Manager" is, maybe you'll need an EVO3D for the dual core. Other than that though, all it has is just a gimmick. 3D.
So many parents are going to give their children eye problems later in life by letting their kids play with it. Most of the people that have come through my work with one, over the past few days since release, don't even know about the damage the 3D can do to developing eyes.
Whatsmore, the 3D on the phone is worse in compare to the glasses-free Nintendo3DS.
The stock images in the gallery that are supposed to fully demonstrate glasses-free 3D...are not impressive. Most actually give the opposite impression; quite UN-impressive.
Reason being, the phone's 3D does a poor job displaying a high level of depth. Images with mostly shorter depth looked good, but once again...not better than the 3DS.
And to even use the 3D, you have to keep the phone glued in the same position in front of your face. If you don't keep it in the sweetspot, get ready to feel a bit of pressure on the eyes...
If they'd added some sort of depth slider, either via hardware or software (maybe embedded into image viewer or video player) then things would be a lot better.
I'm sure that most of the faults I find, however, will be fixed once some good developers take time with it.
For now...I think I'll be waiting for Samsung to release a dual-core phone before I make any thought about upgrading again.
I agree with you toweringflesh.

I hope we never get a epic 3d. I wouldn't want a crappy gimmick 3d effect on a phone as great as this. The evo 3d is a good phone but not worth the money for a crappy display and a stupid 3d effect that u have to hold at the right angle to even get a "somewhat"3d effect. Pure garbage. My epic ran smoother in my opinion

Idk about anyone here but my phone have gotten me laid a lot in the past few months since I've got it. Idk how long this would last as the ice breaker is usually, "wow is that the new iphone", "that's a really cool phone", or "what kind of phone is this?". And I simply reply its a galaxy s2, and the rest is history.
Anyone's Phone gotten them laid lately?

I recently had a friend call me in a panic. He tried rooting his phone and installing roms and all but bricked the device. This is the type of guy who does this on the reg. He gets knee deep in a tech project that he has no business in. When he screws everything up, I pick up the pieces.
Well he bought the ATT 777 Galaxy S2, I'm sure you heard of it. Anyways, I can't talk him through it over skype because there is so much he did wrong that I need the phone in my hands to research every issue.
I get the phone, and completely am amazed at how it isn't bricked. It only enters download mode, the USB connector is wonky so you have to hold it a certain way to connect, the battery wont stay charged for more than 10 minutes... I am just angry that it has come to this.
So he leaves and I run through the phone looking for other signs of life. I get it to DL Mode and by the grace of the flying spaghetti monster, figure out how to keep it connected to the wonky USB port. Problem is it requires a two hand operation.
So there is a one-click unroot.root program for the i777. I hold both the phone and cable, then... SMASH THE MOUSE WITH MY HEAD to click the button. I missed twice, so after a headache I finally hit it.
It is now unrooted...
ONE MORE SMASH
rooted...
I install roms with more smashes of my face to mouse.
CWM-- SMASH!
rom- SMASH!
wiper - SMASH!
Everything installs, boots up nicely...
I unhook the volcun death grip and start wondering around the phone. The screen on that phone sucks. The feel of it is cheap and the same apps I have do not run nearly as good.
the t-989 is a way better phone. period.

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
