Good bye again :)

This time it's goodbye to SPRINT and the Hero but not goodbye to XDA.
I'm hanging my hat At the Captivate Portal now.

I would join you, but AT&T IS AN EVIL COMPANY. YOU ARE MAKING A BIG MISTAKE. They ditched their unlimited data plan! The most you can get it 2GB/month. Their customer service sucks, their coverage sucks worse, and they lock down installing non-Market apps on Android phones. They are EVIL!

No more evil than Sprint.
*shrug*
Yeah go ahead and sell me a phone and in less than 10 months tell me that I won't be getting a software update that We all know our phones can handle, just so you can sell me a Phone that WILL have Froyo but I'd have to pay an extra 10 dollars a month for.

Have fun with the iPhone network bloat.

you mean like the verison eris?

lol @ AT&T. I'll never go back to that sh*tty company. Have fun getting f*cked over.

AT&T knows that Android is clearly superior to the iPhone.
That's why they're making all of their Android phones super ****ty and removing functionaity from them that the iPhone doesn't have. AT&T wouldn't have the iPhone exclusively if they weren't taking Apple out back of the building for some extra cash.

Well personally I don't care, but really? AT&T? The worst of the 4

We should start a betting pool for when (not if) he comes back to Sprint. I'll take dibs on 2 months from now. Any other guesses?

I give it within his 30 day trial - what most people dont realize is that ATT, Tmo and Verizon are nowhere near as flexible as Sprint for waiving ETF's, MIR's, Upgrades, Activations, Resets, etc... lol good luck at ATT! See ya back soon!

N1 to Evo?

Okay i LOVE my nexus one and the evo is essentially another android phone so this is why im considering the switch ( i will never own a non-android phone!)
anywho, the reason for this isnt the phone itself. where i live, tmobile's service is crappy as hell! So the only phone that catches my eye is the evo. what do you guys think of the evo and sprint's coverage itself? 4G would be pretty cool too

We really cant answer for you because in your area, sprint might have worse coverage or better coverage. You need to ask other users that live in your area. Ie I love Tmobile but I live in san fran I would switch carriers in a heartbeat

Other than like ebay where else can you buy an AT&T N1? Luckily I got mine from Google before they stopped selling them. The ones they sell if you have a developer account are only banded for tmobile 3g :-(

Thats bs, 3 hours is a huge exaggeration. Battery drain is a thing of the past. With the newest ota ive been getting 12 hours heavy use. But with the help of roms been getting 22 hours MINIMUM , with moderate to heavy use. 98% of evo owners are extremely happy with their evo's. Dont let this guy discourage you, almost 100% sure that you wont be disappointed.

Nice screen, kind of huge phone. I hear the battery is beyond bad. Personally I don't like Sense UI but that is easily remedied. I would see who has the best coverage in you area and go from there. T-mobile isn't even an option where I live hardly any coverage at all. Sprint has great coverage here and the 3G is fast too. Verizon also has good coverage and 3G here. AT&T has only Edge where I live. Many factors to consider.

Evo is worser than nexus one:
1. Worser battery life
2. Worser fps rate and benchmark

If signal reception is your ONLY concern then by all means go for it. IMHO Evo4G sucks epic. Its android yes, but its by no means an N1 replacement. Quadrant scores are lower and batt life is like having double a's in a hugh ass maglight, it just doesnt make sence. You could rom it with CM6 but it will never ever get close to how smooth and clean a N1 looks and runs. I have my hands on alot of Evo's almost daily and would never even think of downgrading. Tmob might have spotty service but thats a small price to pay for owning an epic phone.

Well boys... I have you beat

I just scored a LNIB GT-N7000 for 500 wing wangs.
I am so happy right now!
What was your reaction when you first got yours?

So? I scored a BNIB white N7000 for $530 less then a month ago. Wanna have penis wagging party?

Relief!
Coming from a Galaxy S II that had screen issues, ( yellow tint, uneven brightness, you name it ) I had to deal with terrible costumer service and I was worried that the note would be the same story all over again.
After having lost trust with super amoled+ displays and Samsung, i read that the Note doesn't have super amoled+ screen, so between the Nexus and the Note, I chose the Note and haven't regretted my decision since. Great display, great battery, Spen, and ICS is on the way. I couldn't have asked for more from a device

"Holy **** thats a big screen!"

Reaction: OMG this is beautiful! I bet some %$^er will be buying it in a few months for much less than the $650 I paid for it and telling me about it !
OK, I made that last bit up.... Enjoy it well, and I am more than happy to have paid an extra $150 to have it for a few more months, to be honest!

does it count if samsung sent me a brand new one for free, and i'm not sure why they did it?

I got mine used, as new, with warranty for £300, and was very happy. The Note is the first phone I've owned that I've been really satisfied with. The SII was pretty good, but not quite good enough...

Reaction: seeing this rather small box for such a big phone and then opening it only to realize the Note was as wide and as long as the box. Then my girlfriend looked at it and said "Ridiculous!! Look how freaking big this is" all while trying to imitate a call

LOL, I wasn't expecting to get it so soon though. I usually have a 3 week process of getting a phone, I just decided like Friday to get the phone.
I am just a happy note owner, I do have that banding issue though, but its no biggie.

I laughed my ass off on how big it actually was

Stout season is upon us!! Do yourself a favor and find Founders Breakfast Stout........so good......

Well I don't mean to troll your thread but since i havent really made a impact in this forum, no one would care.
Im am also leaving the Nexus S 4G. And im so sad to leave it but so happy with my new Gnex.
The 1.2gb dual core processor really feels soo smooth and i have been trying to achieve that with custom roms/kernels on my NS4G that honestly on the stock Gnex it brings satisfaction and completion.
Just a little story if your interested.
Last September i switched to sprint and was going to get my phone at best buy.
I didnt have much money to spend so what was hot at the time (Evo 3D- $199.99) was way out of my reach.
For $29.99 I was dead set on getting the Evo ( i think it was 4g wiimax). But best buy was sold out.
So the worker who i feel superior to because they don't know anything about the phone except whats listed on the ads.
Well, they pushed me to get the evo shift (free). But there was this phone with much mystery called nexus s.
I went over to their computer section to wikipedia specs to see which is faster and better but they had their ups and downs.
I went back 15 mins later and they pulled the shift out with a case and I became mad because she was trying to force the phone saying its better because of camera, keyboard, and year released that i went to the rep next to her and told him i want the nexus s 4g.( Reps get more money when they sign up people). A little arguement broke out and I left that store with the Nexus S 4g.
The big surprise to me is when Ice Cream Sandwich came out and i learned I have a Flagship Phone with Google and will receive future updates first. This made me A pure Google supporter and forever a Apple product/service hater.
I won $200 on a lottery ticket and decided to get the Gnex. People on craigslist were super stingy in my area wanting 300+ for a scratched up and some dented Gnex's.
Never buying phones off Ebay, I checked and saw one that was advertised as rooted and bids was $180. The HD pics showed not a scratch and long story short I now have one working for $186.50.
Now my new upgrade is in June so I can still get the next nexus this year.
Thats my story of the Nexus S 4g's life.
My advice to people, Don't get it now with a 2 year contract.
With the next nexus coming next month you don't want to fall two models behind in 2 years you'll be 10 models behind because Nexus are growing. Check Ebay and you can grab one for $250 or under.
Again, Sorry for trolling but i didn't want to spam the boards.
Hopefully my Gnex's battery can last through this hurricane sandy.

Since it's only $199...

Right now I have the S2, and I've been debating on getting the Moto X for the past month but with the N4 dropping down to only $199, I'm confused. On paper both very similar and I don't care about wifi calling, I don't need it. I could wait for the Nexus 5, whenever that drops, but I'm not down to spend $500-600 on a phone right now.
So, the Nexus 4 and the Moto X are very similar, so I should go with the Nexus 4, right?

Yes I would personally go with the N4 if I had to make the choice.
And thats because these factors.
1.N4 has a huge community
2.It's cheapers than the Moto X

Exactly, and cheap enough to have a great back up device if the N5 is so out of this world that I have to buy it. Besides, I won't ever buy from Tmobile ever since their stupid monthly installment plan came into play.

I actually owned one for like 2 weeks about 6 months ago but ended up returning it. Not because I didn't like it, but because I was dead set on getting the HTC One and couldn't see myself keeping this $350 phone AND buying another later down the line. But yea, gonna get the bumper with it since its a slippery bastard.

For me, N4 is still the obvious winner compared to any phone out there. $249 for an unsubsidized/unlocked phone is a steal. Even if the next Nexus comes out in two weeks, I still won't mind having spent $249 yesterday for the N4.
I was lucky; I FUBAR'd my original N4 just two days ago, then the price drop was announced the following day!
