Giving it away........

So I've had my evo since it first came out rooted shortly after and been flashing ROMs daily til CM6. And stuck with their nightlies, but I'm ready to move on now. Giving this beauty to my girlfriend, stuck now on which phone to get next. Seriously thinking about getting the Nexus S, but also thinking about verizon's incredible. Not too sure which I'm gonna get. I just wanna know what this beautiful XDA community thinks. Maybe this could've been in another section but oh well. Sue me!

I would not get a phone that can't handle an SD card. The S looks sweet but thats it IMO. I had a Fascinate and I swore I would never get a Samsung device again because of the lack of software updates. I had an INC and liked it. Its all a matter of taste. I have had a Droid X and the original Droid and out of all the phones I like the EVO the best and my second would be the original Droid..go figure.

if you go verizon, get the thunderbolt.
at&t the atrix.
t-mobile id get the mytouch4g or wait for the lg 3d phone.
for sprint id wait for the nexus s or the evo3d.

+1...Had a MyTouch on Simple Mobile and it was nice...

So when are these phones coming out guys? And am I gonna have to wear glasses w the 3d lol.....? Is the Nexus really that ****ty? I've read some good reviews.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Well honestly I think the Nexus S us a great device! it just comes down to what you like & what you need. Some people say to wait for Dual-core phones but personally I don't like the idea. So it's all up to you, when it comes down to it. Also take into account that the Nexus S didn't have a SD card slot, but not a big deal to me

I understand it doesn't have an sd but what kind of internal memory does it have? A. Do what's that mean performance wise?
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

inc and nexus s are not real upgardes from the EVO.
i would wait for a few months.. and better phones will be released.
better cpu and gpu and mem and screens.

For 3d its no glasses and I disagree on getting the thunderbolt its not a real upgrade from the evo

I just can't stand how the buttons are "backwards" on the nexus s. I know all samsung phones are this way, its just annoying at first.

Right now the evo is still top dog imo, plus the developer community is way involved. Seems like at least one new rom comes out each week.

Force changes (Verizon)

Hey guys, recently my dad has not been happy with at&t and has decided to switch our whole family (4 people) to Verizon.. I love my Atrix but sadly it is a GSM phone and it wont work on Verizon. I will be needing a new phone on Verizon and was wondering which phone(s) would be a good transition to from the Atrix.

As of right now, nothing on Verizon can match the atrix in terms of ram. If I were you I'd go with the Droid X 2, since hardware wise its a larger atrix with less ram.

What if I convinced my dad to wait until the sgs2 cane out? Do you think that'd be better?

EVO 4G will be right next the C64 and its 64K ram expansion unit and tape drive within my personal museum. As for next phone..who knows.. too early to tell.

Is HTC gonna get hit with all the patent mess from Apple? I lost track of what was going on but last I saw, Apple was suing over a patent on the ability to click on a phone number within a webpage and have it dial the number. At the time, it wasn't going to affect imports for a few months. Anyone heard anything?

The galaxy nexus looks pretty appealing. Although I would like to stick with HTC. Hopefully they come out with a phone that has a screen like the nexus or the epic touch.

I get one more Premier Gold 1-year upgrade on April 1st. If the Galaxy Nexus is out by then, I'll get one. Otherwise, probably the Epic Touch 4G.
I wish HTC would come out with something hot between now and then.

How are you still able to get a one year up? That ended forever ago didn't think they were doing anymore grandfathering in.

Gold Premier (10+ years) customers were given one last one-year upgrade if they were close to their date. Don't remember the time frame, but my acct reflects this. Got my EVO last April, and I'm eligible 04/01/2012.
They ended one-year upgrades for Silver Premier customers last April. Gold customers ended 12/31/2011, with one more upgrade granted.

Odin is the program you need to use with Samsung devices to root and flash different modems and what not. i gotta admit, sometimes it is better than flashing a PD15IMG.zip but still...what if i'm nowhere near a computer?

if i'm ever going to get the Galaxy, i'm definitely going to get the International version. hate how the U.S carriers screw them up and such... ruins the whole point... i have an international version of the Original Galaxy S, GT-i9000, and if it weren't for it being international... i'm not sure how i can stand it lol. International ftw!

Yeah.im leaning towards internat versions for next major purchase.but if the note or sgs3 or the onex comes to Tmobile,then thats good enough for me for the next 2yrs.
But if google will sell the next nexus and not depend on a carrier,shiiiit.google/Samsung will rule the market with that one phone.

Sent From My Sprint Galaxy Nexus

As one who really likes (needs) to have a physical keyboard, the big appeal for me is the 5th row of dedicated numerals. That was the deciding factor for me over the Evo shift that was available at the time. I would prefer another Samsung, and I would prefer an unlocked bootloader. But if something happened to my epic, and this was the only phone like this available, I would buy it.
