Goodbye Gentleman - EVO Shift 4G General

Well gentleman some really bad news :crying: . My Beloved EVO Shift is Gone :crying: . It has moved on to a better place. I've been Uber sick these last few days, Flu. Truly feel like death warmed over. In the midst of feeling like Poo it was knocked off the nightstand, onto a hardwood floor. I was groggy, with a fever. Strike one screen cracked. Then in the middle of the night my dog has a mental break. Knocks the Shift off the nightstand into a Puke Bucket Strike two. Then I fish it out, Yuk. Holding it gingerly. It slips hits the floor again. Strike three, and out. This time the Screen came off . So long story short, no more Shift. Called Sprint, they gave me an SGS3 for Free. So that's what I'm rocking now. Still not rooted, haven't even signed in to Google on it yet. But I will be still be frequenting the Shift forms. Also I will maintain the Roms I always have. Will also keep up on trying to get new stuff for the Shift. Best forum I've ever had the luck to be a part of on XDA . I am moving on, but not leaving. Thank you gentleman for being awesome .

Very sad to hear this, I hope you enjoy your new phone and hopefully recover too. Sucks about the shift though, at least it went out quickly and not in pieces.
But what are your first impressions of SGS3? My upgrade is at the beginning of February and I was thinking about getting that one.

Not as easy as that . I am sick, and I was not in the mood for dealing with anyone. Especially after the situation with my Shift. My wife was speaking with them. They started giving her a hard time, about TEP. So I got on the line, and told her to just cancel my service. All the lines are up for an Upgrade ( 10 Lines ) . She changed her tune really quick. They next day Aired the SGS3 to me.

How's that epic development coming lol?

Been watching the development of the epic well where is it? But the phone sure looks purty. Cmon get her done already. I am tired of my wife asking when can I make my epic look as cool as your evo.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
Lol gahuck it is cooler than your evo. Its been out 2 days duh
Haters gonna hate...
I had an Evo, I couldn't get past the compromises HTC made on hardware and build quality, as well as laggy interface issues.
Now with the Epic, I don't have to make those compromises, everything's like butter and it feels solid, no screen separation issues here.
I have both, the Epic grows on me more and more everyday. And by the end of this week, it'll be my daily driver. Gonna activate it and use my Evo as an MP3 player.

To be honest... when I pick up my EVO now, it feels like an old piece of junk. And you can make it look however you want. Just load in another launcher.
Except for themes... but themes are lame
I personally cant wait to see how developement goes for the Epic. My EVO is flying at the moment thanks to the great developers on XDA. Hopefully beofre too long my Epic will be the same, if not better! We shall see
Week one, what's the hold up
Shouldn't we have lots of development already done on this thing? I mean, it came out Tuesday folks. You expect me to sit on my butt idly waiting till next week or something? If I've gotta wait till October, I'm canning this thing and going back to my Palm III.

Haters lol, I own both of them read the post. I let my wife use the epic. All I asked is where is the development. And yes WOMEN like themes. And flowers. And romance but I guess that is gay 2. All I was stating is that the development for the evo was like bammm and still is. Whereas the epic is like blahhhh. Even the threads barely move. I'll go check over at sdx.

Lol good one chillaxin. First time I have been called a redneck hillbilly. Yoyoyo sup mfrers? Is that better for you? I am actual fluent in ebonics lol. I have lived in Newark, NJ , Hartford, CT and Rochester, NY. And no my wifey is your cousin!!! lol
If any of you still have your Evo's, take a look at this video on each of your handsets side by side.
- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=CeacjOkLjZ0&feature=youtube_gdata_player
The difference is night and day. Our screens really do pwn the Evo's.
Development is kinda' now because the Evo was barely released a few months ago then the Epic came out.
If the Evo had been released a few short months after the Nexus One was released, development for the Evo would be on par with development for the Epic at this time. Hypothetically speaking.
all you guys need to chill out
naww but really the epic has been out for 4 days now and we've made great strides so far. The hero took about 4 weeks to get root and another 2 weeks to get its first rom. We have good devs that re willing to sacrifice their phones to try to bring these things here. So its no problem for me to wait patiently!
haters
Hey Pongoface,
I really wasn't trying to hate. Just thought I'd be my retarded usual self. I caught the jist of what you were saying and I'm definitely looking forward to being cooler than my Evo friends! Now the hill billy talk...I've got no idea where that came from.

Maybe I should. So much for playing devils advocate to start a spark. Yes Chill my comeback was childish. But your racist remark of calling me a hillbilly was uncalled for. If you don't think that the way you used the word is racist then you are sadly mistaken. You don't know me or my upbringing. Get off my thread if you have nothing good to say about development of the epic. Good luck to you chillaxin to the maXin.

Don't get too excited. Just because he built it and booted it doesn't mean anything works yet.
If that's what you call porting, I'm in the middle of doing it too.

My buddy had this great story in the same vein. He wasn't into phones per say, but he did have an addiction with COD for the PS3. I don't remember the exact details, but basically he had just finished fighting with his girl and he walked into the other room. He said he turned on the PS3 to play and you know that little "beep" the console makes when you first boot up. Yeah, well his girl heard that and that sound was enough to refuel the fire of the fight. Makes me laugh because I know when I'm in a fight with my wife, I would much rather be dicking around on my phone or reading XDA forums. haha

Whew! Talk about lucky (yeah, another toilet story).

Ever wanted to kill your wife after she dropped her evo into the crapper? I have. Just happened on Saturday. She forgot it was in her back pocket, and out it slipped (luckily pre-dump, lol). Pulled the battery right away, and buried it in a sealed tupperware container of rice. After a day and a half, took it out, and it works. Still has moisture under the screen, and the haptic feedback for the capacitive buttons isn't working right, but she can deal with those two things, unless they're cheap to fix. We'll see how things go over a longer period, as I just took it out today, but I've got some hope at least. Just felt like sharing a little messed up story.
I bet it went plop!
Nope, can't say I ever wanted to kill someone over a piece of electronics.

That does suck. My first thought when I read your OP was that a day and a half isn't long enough in rice.
Buy your wife lots of new shoes, and use the desiccant packs to dry out the evo. Then return the shoes to punnish her

They actually did this before and switched us back because of the uproar. I doubt we will see the enthusiasm of the days of yore. Too many people have left us with the outpouring of 4g choices and enough built in memory to not have to use a tweak such as Firerat's.
It doesn't matter where we are located, it' still good of a device for devs not to take up the challenge to get something impossible running on it. Remember "they" said we didn't have the hardware to run froyo. I guess the reality is that they didn't have the balls.

I'm about to pass my old Hero to my son. It was the first CDMA android phone, and a damn good one. Sometimes being a "Legacy" is an honor.

im proud to say my busted screen hero that i just got a month ago is my daily driver phone, the devs in this forum are still rocking out roms left and right, was planning on getting an evo next year but i think since the hero works great why upgrade
thanks everyone for extending the life of this phone for a broke college student like me

Missing everyone in all the fun!

Just wanted to give a shout-out to you peeps back at HTC Evo Shift 4G -
I already miss yas <3
I took my Samsung GS2 Epic 4G Touch out to a forest--it took a dive on a dirt road and went *skitchskitchskitch!* DOA
WHAAAAAAT!! Dang, what a bunch of bullocks. They are replacing it ..and boy do I hope it's just the phone I received.
Best
good luck
Dropped mone on garage floor yesterday.bounced off concrete case flew off ajd battery goes flying. Not the first time thats hsppened.one time down 5 concrete steps. Flew apart. No damage lol. Lucky. Anyway good luck with your phone!
I have dropped my shift multiple times with complete dismantle occurring (battery flying, case exploding, etc.) and have never had a problem. As of now the body is dented and scratched but still runs like a champ. January will be two years. Itching for a new toy, but it will be hard to let go of my shift.

Yeah, i'm asking around on the forums. It may have been the ROM - but either way, my cell provider is sending me a new one express mail style.
Good deal . Hopefully you'll be up and running soon.
Come November, it's a Photon. I think.
Still debating whether or not I want to sign a contract.

You could always pick something up off contract. That way you save the upgrade.

These shifts are sturdy. I've dropped my shift raw dog no case on concrete numerous times. Only damage is a few scuffs around the edges.
Shifted from a Zombie Wasteland
Well, depending what I do...I may shift over after some time as long as I keep this Galaxy S2 E4GT in good standing..i can probably resell it and get a real phone. Yeah, wtf s up with quality control.
I heard in other countries- they have a different screen all together. Ones that do not shatter.
Gotta love America! Land of opportunity..and that of buy and upgrade, or sell to waste. constant...Yeah, HTC makes solid devices.
Yeah I'm an HTC Fanboy. Get Crap from a lot of people for it. Till I have to fix there phones :silly:
