I'm so tired of ANDROID
so much bored
I really dont want to use my phone
I'm so done messing with frameworks and custom roms
anyone who feels like me???
I'm actually getting to this point...i an so tired of roms that work for a week our ask then go on the fritz. This is mostly due to the faulty dk28 I'm running (thanks to samsung and sprint not releasing an official froyo) on my epic 4g. frustration mounting...

I guess android is just a frenzy when you first try it after few weeks/months all the hype dies
It wasn't the same with symbian
ah Old days and my faithful NOKIA..
Guess I will soon switch back to it

Android is a Linux, You must have the soul of a hacker. Of course You may be a normal user of your phone, play angry birds and call to your girlfriend vel boyfriend, wife, husband, mother, puppy ...
I just recently got into the whole rooting and custom ROM stuff... But I don't think I'll get 'bored' of Android, since I'm still using it as a phone, not some kind of toy.

his got a point thoug
voice clarity is nice in android phones lol
If you are going to buy new phone, think about HD2. You will never ever end with boredomness. Bored with Android ? Go to WM or WP7. Vice a versa .
And yes, it is a phone(send ur SMS's, make calls, play, take snaps) Android is just a big(ment to be free, but Sony raped us) plus.
Got my phone 1 month and a half, and I just take it for what it is: a *good* phone with internet capabilities, useful for my work and my personal satisfaction
But bored... hopefully not gonna happen...
I only bought this phone because it is a pretty cheap phone damn!
Only for mess around..
@suhel28 : I digg what you're saying man, I'm also abit tired of all the flashing/recovering that happened every week for atleast about 2 months now. Gotta find a good version to live with and wait untill a stable(fully working) rom exists. Thanks again for the framework btw.
I'm not getting tired of Android, just this phone. I want to be able to update to the latest Android whenever I want, I shouldn't have to rely on a third party for that.
Also, I don't think you're getting tired of the phone, you are getting tired of messing with it.

hahaha....this post made my day....
after more than two months, i also reached the point of getting tired with my phone. i go tired in flashing, changing the framework, changing the font, installing something here and there....
i hope i just got tired of my se x8 phone and not with android itself..... i even reached the point of selling my phone, although i still have sont buyers up to this time. SE just slashed the price of this phone in the philippines by 20%!!!!!!
i wanna get a sammy tab now!

Do it !!
i just did ... took a few minutes but i got a manual reset on my upgrade ...
im eligible for a FULL upgrade now !.... never thought it would work.
it went straight to a rep and the guy was awesome
Whosdaman said:
So let me summarize this for everyone:
1. Resets are permanent
2. Must be partially eligible
3. This is not ending anytime soon
4. Don't abuse it, they can read the notes.
I know some people said they have been able to have their line reset even though they weren't partially eligible. Well more power to ya. I guess it doesn't hurt to try, but if you are turned down don't fret I was too. I have to wait just like everyone else.
I'm still getting the EVO 3D anyways

I bet some manager up there is like WTF is with all these manual upgrade request!?!?!
But it doesnt really matter. They MAKE more money since everyone will be buying a new phone via this upgrade.
Surprised no1 cares about this...

Yep, that is what they told me. I wanted to get three lines on my account upgrades bumped up, but they said no. Luck for me I mentioned I'm on my third Epic and they were nice enough to then bump up the upgrade on my line.

My family has only been with Sprint for 7 months but my dad hates his blackberry and wants a high end android phone. What do I need to say to get them to bump him up?
Also, once you do this, do you have to get an evo 3d or could I order him a nexus s \ epic \ evo shift on amazon?

I Don't see why not especially if you guys are Premier gold and in good standing..
i think if he tells them he want's to preorder the Evo 3d they'll end up giving it to him.
because they know they'll make back the money, but that's what i told them and they didn't make me pre order it right away and im still debating whether i will in the first place.

We aren't gold premier. We have 5 lines on the 1500 everything data plan so we will be silver ($129.99 base price + 3 additional lines x $20 + 3 x $10 premium data). Is it still possible? Are you gold?

Once again, I come here with fingers crossed hoping for root news. And once again, I leave here with no news. And yet again, I will hear my wife say "I hate you" for upgrading her phone. fml.

I'm sorry for your loss..
I have a 2 year old terror for a son, that is constantly playing with my phone. The blue htc case has been the best purchase i have made in a long time. It definitely beefs up the phone enough to withsatnd majority of his punishment. He did manage to break something because my keyboard lights rarely work... But thats nothing compared to if he would crack my screen... Come on root so i can get a new phone with working keyboard lights.

/\ hey somebody in the same boat as me... My keyboard and physical button lights haven't worked in months. Small price to pay to keep root.

We all feel your pain . Guess it's going to be a minute before your able to do anything for the community . Dammm you HTC .
you could always try a different Launcher so that it will look different...
If you're lookin for a sense 3.0 like lockescreen try Agile Lock from the market, been using it on my evo for a week or so and loving it. In order to get all the functionality out of it you'll have to download 4 or 5 apps from within the agile lock app. They're all in Japenese or Chinese, can't read either so not sure which language it actually is, but just download and install them then you can delete them. Once the app is unlocked it functions almost just like the 3.0 lockscreen.

I didn't care if anyone responded. Sorry for eating valuable forum space in the shift forum. When root comes back around, this thread will be pointless. Feel free to delete it. But the other person was right. This is the gloom thread. No root for the old hags phone makes me sad. If jock itch makes you sad, tell us about them red balls.
As far as children, I think my 15 y.o. looked at some pR0n on my shift the other day. I spent hours deciding how to sterilize it, in the event that he diddled himself, without blitzing the circuits. My first impulse was to soak it in bleach for a day or two. How's that for some FML?????

umm...
this will probably sound really stupid, so just remember that I come from the easy-to-root epic forum.
I assume it's not possible to RUU back to 2.2, root, unlock, then flash gingerbread?
I guess my question really is, why doesn't this method work?

Because the RUU checks the hboot and says you've got the wrong one and fails.

I know your saying is correct, but if it is simply just that, how come with revolutionary on other phones you can run a RUU and it'll reset the phone but keep s-off? Or is it because revolutionary just does something crazy?

Dunno. I may be wrong in the above too. I've been lucky enough to keep my root and haven't actually been paying much attention to the problem of rooting the 2.3 OTA.

My phone hates aosp can't figure out what it is but every aosp Rom I've run works great for an hr or 2 the starts bootlooping, doesn't matter what Rom or kernel. I've run cm7.1, miui, decks, and salvagemod and about the time I'm finished getting everything set up BAM! bootloops. Miui was the one I had the most luck with it lasted over night b4 i woke up unlocked my phone and what happens? Bootloops =\
