I hear you get 150 for your evo so final price is I guess based on how much sprint gives you the phone for on an upgrade.
I feel so sorry for all these devs who are investing in the ****tie 3D but fail to realize when new releases from Sprint comes later in July to September, it'll blow their kiddie spy phone out the water. Plus they just blew their upgrade. . oh well.
Farewell devs, you've been well appreciated.
Stop saying goodbye, just leave.

Why copy and paste this crappy statement in the threads over and over?
Chubbz thanks for all you brought to the EVO and all you will bring to the 3d.
The 3d is far from a crappy phone. I really hope you stop using other devs work with this attitude. Honestly, you can't comprehend the amount of time it takes to develope a ROM you use free... And if a dev wants to say good bye to those who they have become friends with, let them. Certainly don't appreciate or need comments like this around here. What have you contibuted? Thought so.

I'm at my 1 year upgrade but they said is only $75 off the retail price so it will cost my $475 plus I have to sign a 1 year contract. Also I'm on my 4th replacement in a month but they also won't let me switch to another phone since they say none is comparable....i talked to management and fought and fought for an hour and for nothing.....
Also didn't know they did trade-ins either, no one at Sprint offered me that....

Yes devs contribute a lot and we praise each one of them just the same but why do you all have to post a thread each just to wish farewells. I get it may be said out of respect but i dont know. Plus sometimes I feel as if some devs takes advantage from us with their "buy me a beer" attitude. Believe me, I'm all for giving praise where place is due but I can live just fine without rooting or a rom, live moves on.
Anywho, like i said. Farewell
enjoy your new phone love

I figure this is a xda forum between friends, and I have enjoyed these threads just for the "human element" they contain. We all appreciate the labor of love that developers put into their roms, and when they feel the desire to say goodbye to their friends, acquaintances, and flash addicts it is good for the community.
IMO, ignoreance is greater than dissidence.

Just got off the phone with my local corporate store:
I'm eligible for the 1-year upgrade discount (currently 1 year into my 2 year contract). So, if I was looking into getting the 3D right now, it'd be 550-150 (Evo trade-in credit) - 75 (1-year upgrade credit) = $325 + Contract renewal for the 3D. Think I'll wait for a drop in price. Either that, or flip the EVO on Craigslist.

I have been here on xda for awhile so I received alot of knowledge from the devs and flashers so I decided to say thanks and move on to bigger and better things. The reason why ppl put a donation or buy me a beer link is because ppl asked for a link it not required.
Thanks all.
thanx Chubbz,thanx Leo,thanx to all the devs.This is what owning an Android phone is all about.These guys push our devices as far as they can go.They give us variety at the cost of their time and money.Its a cycle,waiting for more and better.

If I remember they use the same battery so there's that, and ill hold onto it for s back up but what's something usefull I could do with it.
Experimentation. Like try something you never did with rooting now. Some people don't ever theme or apply kernels. Do anything haha.
From my Gingerbread Hero.
Sell it for 100$ on craigslist.com
Donate it to a dev.
I sold my Hero on craigslist for 150 bucks after I got my Atrix. Nothing really you can do after you get a phone like an Evo.

Buy a bigger battery and use it as your portable media device. Donate to a dev, or find somebody in your community that has an old phone and upgrade them. That's what I did when I bought two hero's from the forum.
Could it be used (without mobile data) to keep track of running or road biking workouts with a GPS app? Haven't ever tried, but it's waht I plan to do with mine. If not, I'll just sell it.

I'd agree, but i think a lot of people are jumping ship now becasue thier contracts are up and the Hero can't run a lot of newer stuff. Not sure how much more dev work we'd get. However, donating to a dev is always a great choice! They do awesome work!
try the new gingersense. its an alpha but its a great alpha
Hey everyone.
Well sadly, and happily the time has come for me to move on to another device. The epic, while having great potential just did not hit the mark. While many of you may disagree, etc, the truth is simple; The Epic4G had much more potential than Samsung/Sprint allowed it to have.
So now I say my farewell to the Epic dev community. I will still be around, and if you need to contact me you can do so via PM, or find me in IRC @ irc.freenode.net #G2x
As some of you know, I recently decided to switch carriers to T-Mobile, and I am getting a G2x. My new device arrives tomorrow, and I am quite excited to begin dev'ing on a new phone, with a lot more power.
Good luck to everyone, and I hope to see you on the other side
We're going to miss you. Thanks for all you've done.
Thanks Dameon you did SO much for this community

Thanks Dameon! Leaving with class and style! I like it. Maybe when the G2s hit Sprint you can throw together some stuff for us, even though I got awhile before I can upgrade.
Thanks for all you've done. Good luck with the new device.
thanks for all your work.
Sent from my SPH-D700 using XDA App
Have fun with the new device.
I've read reviews on it, and it looks to be plagued with battery life issues and random reboots on stock. So I'm sure you'll make that community very happy with fixes.
Talk about a traitor!
I'm jking dude. I'm sure there was a logical reason behind you switching to tmo, even though you will be an AT&T customer with their outrageous prices.
Just saying.
Take care

Another sad day .
So does this mean CM7 is dead?
Thanks for all you've done!
. Sad too see so many devs leaving lately. But you can't blame them there's some amazing devices coming out. I think I'm gna jump on the sgs2. Thanks fr al yur hard work on cm7.
As I proceed with my Android4Autism plans I need to have an idea of the types of devices people are willing to donate. I may have to outsource ROM development depending on the device and whether or not I have time to put a working ROM together for each type.
So as the EVO 3D and GSII prepare for launch what will you be doing with your old device? Perhaps you have an old Hero or even a Moment. If you are willing to support this cause please indicate what device you are willing to or able to donate.
Remember the status of the ESN does not matter. These device will NOT be activated. They need to be in "decent" and working condition. Remember these are going to go into the hands of special needs kids so they do need to be perfect.
Also, I can use micro sd cards (any size) and phone cases. Extra battery chargers would be welcomed.
Please indicate in the poll what you are able to or willing to donate. I'm not ready to receive any donations yet so please just hang on to them and maybe shoot me a PM with your pledge and email address so I can contact you when I'm ready.

Ok, not sure if this is going to be cool with the moderators or not, so if not, lock/delete it. I have an idea...let's encourage the devs to spend a bit more time looking at the EVO Shift...by offering up a cash incentive to the first person or team that gets us properly rooted on Gingerbread. Maybe offer to Paypal them some cash? i know I'd chip in. Heck, right now I'll say I'll paypal $50 to the first person or team that gets me rooted. If everyone chipped in, even a few bucks, it could really add up and create an incentive...

I know people want the update but honestly the devs are working on it and giving them money isnt going to make them come up with a soultion faster they need time.
Now when they release something a donation is a great way to say thanks but we dont want to rush them

I haven't heard about anyone working on it. I believe they are working on it for other devices.
Throw me down for $50 as well.
So, we've got $100 already...come on...lets offer some incentive for the devs to come back to the EVO Shift for a while...
Im telling you the devices they work on are related to the shift and they can port the same methods. They are already working on the shift and other devices related to it
So, therefore us offering a reward helps not only Shift owners but others too. Fantastic!
count me in! I desperatyl need to get rid of 2.3 because mobilenet doesnt compatible with my metropcs flash! so ill throw 25-50 sumthing in between!
Lol I think our shifts are gunna be left behind cus seems like everyone's focusin on the EVO or EVO 3 d
Sucks for us shift owners

I remember the same talk regarding rooting 2.2.... everyone saying no one was working on it and then BAM! Root.
The thing is development doesn't get done on XDA. When it's done it gets posted to XDA. Just because you don't see it happening doesn't mean it ain't. Imagine you're a dev: Would you post that you're working on it if you're unsure if you can do it? It'd accomplish nothing but dissapointment.

reward
Last i checked theres a reward offer in the Evo forum also. It was up to 300 i think a couple days ago.
Nice! Hopefully once one is rooted, either one, the other one will be that much easier.
I know it is fustrating to wait I am among the many waiting for the same thing. That being said you never hear what the developers are working on because they dont want to give off any clues to htc as to what they are doing so HTC dont send a silent OTA to seal up any exploits that may gain root for us. But to the team that does get the job dont I will be donating to them definatly I cant wait to get my hotspot back for my Iconia Tablet when I am on the road.
50 to 100
I would throw in 50 to 100 just to get this ****ty rom off my phone and a hooker to tongue there balls.

I saw on Twitter that Fre3vo is supposed to be updated to support the Shift now. So that should mean that at least temp root is possible.

SHIPPING OUT TO CHAD THE PATHFINDER. Damn, that was quick.
So I finally took my upgrade and got the Photon. Happy with it so far, gotta say having a faster processor and ICS is a huge plus. Seemed my Shift just couldn't keep up with me anymore. Wanted to say thanks to the forum for all the help the last two years and for keeping the internet bull**** to a minimum. Made it pretty enjoyable here.
I also want to offer my Shift to any dev who needs one for development. Sprint only offers $30 so I'm more than happy to give it to someone who can actually make use of it. Works fine on, MikShifted at the moment.
Thanks again.
