I wonder why that happened.
Maybe it's because people have been getting steadily more and more tech savvy over the last couple of years, since the introduction of mainstream smartphones with all carriers.
And, of course, more tech savvy people know that iphone is just a toy.
Clarification: It was #1 in sales for the quarter. Not sure what it's market share is overall, but it's moving fast.
Apple's brainwashing is wearing off and people are realizing the iPhone isn't the best thing since condoms.

Wait, but condoms aren't gre.... errr I see what you did there.
As a self proclaimed techno-geek I can tell you that what grabbed my attention was the "what droid gets" commercials. Those started me on a search for a droid device and I grabbed the EVO on launch day. My contract with Verizon had just expired and even though it was their commercial, I went with Sprint.
Got the wife a Samsung Moment and she is on that thing more than I'm on my EVO
how many android devices can you name that were out this time last year though, these numbers don't mean anything. the hero, moment, droid, eris, incredible, evo, even the backflip are counted as opposed to counting JUST the magic and G1.. really meaningless. if it happens again Q4 this year or later then it will mean everything though.

Since apple lil screw up. And people coming to reality Its newsletters everyday stating how Android is moving up, stating that its more then 200,000 android phones gettting activated a day.
But i think its just people are finally moving up to the tech ages and not basic feature phones.

Overall the voting is just meaningless. If anything, it should be a legitmate voting process with email confirmation with IP based on mobile operating systems. All these phones are Android, who cares if they beat another Android phone? The real competitor is iOS.

Point proven Guess I'll just say it... the exploit is that Polldaddy saves the data that you voted already in a cookie. So if you cleared your cookies then you can simply revote.
That's why I find this vote to be a joke if its primary voting system is Polldaddy.

1) Battery life doesn't suck, if you tweak the phone. Which, logically, doesn't mean that it sucks if you don't.
2) My Evo seems to be doing everything above 40fps. Can't really say that it's lagging.

It's pretty simple. I own a EVO because I wanted a Android phone to take advantage of Google Voice which I use as a business line. It's a good phone, but as good as the EVO is, it isn't perfect. I personally don't start threads criticizing the EVO (because it simply doesn't make sense to here) but if the discussion comes up and people start responding about how the EVO is crystal clear perfect, I speak up. If you were expecting a forum where EVO users just high five'n themselves in ignorant bliss well then just ignore posts like that.
I personally don't see a problem with criticism if it's done tastefully (i.e. with specifics and not general blanketing statements like "OMGZ the EVO/iPhone sucks!"). And it goes both ways anyway - you can't go to any Android site and read about other phones without some (and funny enough EVO users are by freaking far biggest culprits) idiots yelling "SO WHAT!! MY PHONE IS THE BEST!!!" You've got the same people here.
Bottom line this is a General forum about the EVO, and anything about should go. Trolls are trolls and generally say idiotic things that should just be ignored; but don't be surprised when vocal people like me to speak up when a complete EVO fanboy goes into fantasy land.

almost all the evo users i know love the phone. it's also praised very highly online. as a matter a fact many of the users and devs at precentral just bought evo's to replace their palm pre's.
as far as the iphone, it's a great phone but hardly what id call a smartphone. im willing to bet $$ though that alot of users will be switching to one once the cdma version hits though.

Sure...
I spoke to sprint advanced tech support and he hinted that it would be a Sprint iPhone, though he admitted he would not put money down on that.
It will NOT be a Sprint iPhone. if it is I will cancel my service with them immediately for two reasons.
1. An IPhone for Sprint = not an industry first (people aren't seeming to grasp this one, though its not necessarily your prediction just what a rep said)
2. The iPhone 4 is already a device that is on the brink of obsolete. In a world where dual cores and 4g are becoming standard, the people buying iPhone for Verizon are asking to get left behind. If Sprint, who has been doing a great job of staying ahead of the game, decides that taking two steps back and calling it an "industry first" is a wise new game plan, I may as well throw in the towel.
Remember, a vast majority of sales reps, really don't know what they are even talking about.

May have been slight exaggeration... but, innovation and making that tiny effort to stay ahead is the main reason I go with sprint. The fact being that the company has been doing a great job leading the game without being the biggest in sales or subscribers would make all this fuss over an obsolete phone, instead of putting that money to better uses, would definitely make me question if I should go to Verizon or ATT for their soon to be superior phones (atrix, bionic, thunderbolt) if that makes sense.
It would be a huge letdown to me if all this hubbub was over a phone two other carriers have.
I really don't think the announcement is going to be the Iphone. I doubt Sprint will even get Iphone on there service until the Iphone 5 is out with 4G and a dual core. Anyway this thread was meant to be a joke. See, the OP said that Sprint's big announcement will be that the Steelers won the Super Bowl, which would not be making the impossible, possible. I hope the Packers win just because they beat my Eagles and the Eagles actually should have won since they lost by 5 and the Pro Bowl field goal kicker missed 2 FG which would have been 6 points and the win. I guess I could take a little more pride in losing by so little to the eventual SB champs.
I highly doubt Sprint is going to spend the money to get the Iphone on their service. Just Google how much Verizon will spend on Iphone. If Sprint does just expect some serious rate hikes on your next plan.

Bought an Inspire 4G a few days ago and just sold my Epic today for $300. I figure I'm extremely lucky as someone who loves development and has seen it completely die out on the Epic. Farewell and hopefully everyone else can unload their's before it's too late. Goodbye whiny babies and attention-starved developers (the few that are left around here). It was (somewhat) fun while it lasted. Sorry that Samsung is only half as good at phones as it is at televisions.

I somewhat liked that phone too. No support = boring though. We have no decent developers left because the mods here and the ****ty phone owners have run them all off and Samsung's very poor customer support amount to ****. Time to move onto a more user/developer friendly machine. Sorry you're loyalty leaves you in the past.
i'm so sick of 'no name' members posting threads about how they're leaving..
it's almost as bad as trolling.. if you're leaving allow me to hold the door open for you but make sure it don't hit you on the but-tocks
Peace out beotch.
Oh yeah, and its your not you're.
Too late for what? Does your phone spontaneously combust once all XDA development for it comes to a stand still? Well hell, thanks for the warning.
There has been a whole bunch of new stuff over the past couple weeks, so I apparently am not seeing where the development has become dead.
I for one am really pumped about this forum. Thanks to everyone here I rooted my phone and flashed my first rom. Going to flash my first modem tonight. I think the developers are all quality too. I'm running SRF right now and find it to be nearly flawless. I'm new to all this, and maybe I'm wrong, but a few quality devs seems better to me, as a noob, than trying to weigh through a bunch of potentially crappy ROMs just because a phone is popular. I'm very pleased about my first experience with rooting, and will likely listen closely to the suggestions of people from this forum when its time for a new phone.
Enjoy whatever you got going though, I wish you well.

I'm sure this post is bound to spur all kinds of development - you've given so much to the community that I'm sure the devs will all be scrambling to produce something just to try and draw you back in...

I hate being a troll, but I've seen way too many threads like this as of late so here it goes.
OP, In your good bye to us all you do is *****, moan and complain about the developers and Samsung. What did you add to the forum? What did you develop? What help did you provide to other users? Did you spend hours upon hours developing roms, mods, kernels and themes then providing then free of charge to ungrateful blood sucking users like yourself?
A simple "Thanks but it's time for me to move on" would suffice.
Like daddymikey said, I'll hold the door.
See ya
snarf snarf.. removed my post.. snarf..

Bought an Inspire 4G a few days ago and just sold my Epic today for $300. I figure I'm extremely lucky as someone who loves development and has seen it completely die out on the Epic. Farewell and hopefully everyone else can unload their's before it's too late. Goodbye whiny babies and attention-starved developers (the few that are left around here). It was (somewhat) fun while it lasted. Sorry that Samsung is only half as good at phones as it is at televisions.

Real nice. Thank you for proving my point. Enjoy your new phone.
The exit is ---------> just in case you get lost on your way out.

in the context of my post (if this was directed at me) the contraction that I posted was short for "you are".. if you remove the contraction that I posted and insert "you are" in it's place, the sentence still makes sense.
just sayin'

Wasn't directed at you Daddy. I was referring to OP's second post. Sorry for the confusion.

Those are the chicken ****s who hide behind the internet He should call them whiny babies in their faces sometime and see what happens. He should have bought an Inspire anyways LOL HTC sucks, the Sense UI sucks and AT&T sucks HAHA!
****, we can get 300 for our epics? That's pretty cool to know. That's about the only useful info the OP provided as no one cares what phone he has.

Im happy because now most of the average phone users will go over to the iPhone and our android forums wont be cluttered up as much ... i hope....
It's over rated, nothing really great about it
I think it's good for Sprint as a company, but I don't want it.

Thank You Crucifixion......Nothing Special about an IPhone. NOT A DARN THING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Don't get me wrong.. the iphone5 is going to be really sweet. But idk, i have an ipod and an ipad.. the UI can get boring as all it is a is a big app drawer ui. The apps are DEF an advantage, but I see more and more ios apps coming to android.
Pass. But if it's good for Sprint and not bad for their network, hope people are happy. An iPhone right now would actually be a big step down from my Epic, for all kinds of reasons. Android forever (translated from Geek: for the foreseeable future until they **** us folks ;-) ).
Its way to early to tell if this is a bad thing(maybe not, since they're raising prices allready) but I really hope its not and it gets sprint some needed leaverage.

Very nicely put. I fully agree.

You know what would be VERY cool? An iPhone5 running Android. Its undoubtedly going to be miles ahead of Android phones with regards to hardware, as the new iPad's are every time one is released. Getting Android on one would be amazing, but probably impossible.

I have casually tried both iPhone 4 and iPads and never received the impression that they were better spec-ed than the latest Android or even Windows equivalents. Now that Apple is at war with basically anyone who isn't them in tech world, I think they will consistently lose any raw horsepower race (Samsung may not want to sell to them anymore for one). Maybe they will retain an edge in usability for some people, but they are the design kings, as long as you don't despise iTunes like I do, and price gouging.
I'm jumping with my wife. I started on AT&T and iPhone then moved to sprint because cost of the plan. I've seen both sides and so far you can't beat the stability and battery if your willing to drink Steves koolaid!
Looks like I finally made up my mind about what my next phone is going to be. Iphone 5 is it. I was gonna get the Epic Touch but quickly remembered the fact that my phone is on 2.2.1 in an era where Android is at 2.3.6, and how frustrating the Gingerbread leaks have been so far. Not to forget the fact that Samsung doesn't even have the courtesy to share their source code or drivers so that we can create our own up to date roms. I'm never dealing with Samsung again. It's been a nightmare.

Yeah, Samsung leaves a bad taste in your mouth about updates.

As opposed to how up to date Apple keeps their phones. With Apple you don't even have to worry about late updates. Ios frees you from that hassle. You have great, fast, stable, low latency audio software, and you can jailbreak your phone and customize it as much as Android in terms of appearance and functionality. Plus you have much more games and apps. Can't lose.
