With sprint taking pre orders for the iPhone 5 and also including new devices are being sold, when will you give in?
As much as we upgrade the rom to keep up with what's on the newer devices, is becoming quite hard finding a rom that has everything included. There will always be a sacrafice whether its 4g, stable camera etc. Developers have really out done themselves with such great roms but its the evo hardware that drive compatibility issues.
How many will enter 2013 sending a happy new year text from the original evo 4g, or will some of you switch before making that new years Eve toast....
I'm up for an upgrade in November. Looking at moving up to the LTEVO, SGS III or Galaxy Nexus. Probably going to hand my OG EVO down to my son.
Definitely not going to anything that starts with an "i".

I'm stuck till April of next year, but that gives me time to test out the sg4.

I can upgrade right now and I'm thinking about it, but even so, 249 + activation charge is still not cheap
Well my contract ends in April, so probably until then. We'll see what the next best phone will be around then for Sprint.
Get the EVO 4g LTE! I jumped the OG EVO ship and I'm never looking back!
PS. Screw the iPhone 5
Yea my upvrade is in april next year too :/
But on the bright side, I might be able to get the next evo!

Don't know. Sprint has been slow getting 4G at least here in Los Angeles and I hate paying for 4G and not getting it. My friend's Verizon device simply flies. I know Verizon is a bit more expensive but damn their coverage is superb. According to some study I read online, even metropcs is beating Sprint on 4G. My contract is up in November so just sround the corner. Costco has some good Verizon phones and no activation fees.
I got a good year still left. But with the supposed HTC One X+ coming up, doesn't sound too bad with that tegra quad-core.
I'm always behind on my contract when new phones come out. I end up getting the about a year after they are released Hopefully I will be able to correct this soon, and yea I will probably be getting rid of my evo the first opportunity available
While the OG is getting a little long in the tooth, I still find mine quite useable and flash a new rom from these amazing devs about once a week. When development dries up here, that's when I'll start looking for something else. The gf is jumping ship for the iP5 [rolls eyes] after having her Evo for over 2 years. I feel sorry for people who are still running a stock, non-rooted OG with the Sprint base rom. This phone really shines once it's tweaked and modded a bit.
Holdin' out for the next Nexus and hoping it's a Motorola or HTC build.
I'm almost 6 months past my contract end with Sprint.... And am not looking to switch carriers. With development doing what it is doing...... I don't really feel an urge to jump. I switch back and forth between a few roms... Decks... Classic.... DK's Jackpot..... all of them keep me feeling like I have a brand new phone.
HTC vs SIII ... hmmm.... I'm following the forums here and watching who shows up where.
and while I'm here... Thanks to all the developers who just keep on banging out new tricks and new tweaks. It sure makes it fun.

Shh man just don't use the evo to record an unboxing of your girlfriend's iPhone 5 and put it on youtube...lol
Sent from my PC36100 using xda premium
I jumped ship about 2 weeks ago and got myself an Evo V (Evo 3D) on Virgin Mobile. It's a nice little step up from the OG. The OG was treating me just fine and I would have been content to stay with it longer, but I have some cracks in the housing (around the power and volume buttons of course) and wanted to decrease my monthly bill. I think this new to me but already dated phone will last me for another couple years just fine.
The OG is still going strong though. I just got it an HDMI cable and coupled with my datel retro wireless controller (it's like a wii classic controller with wii remote built in to it) it is enjoying life as a dedicated gaming device now. Ouya!

By this winter we should probably hear of some worthy candidates to replace our OGs but right now nothing is really tempting me. Also, I hate that everything is itching toward 5" screen size. Too big IMO. Just stop it already OEMs!!

honestly what dissuaded me from the iphone the most was the smaller screen. seems trivial to some, and my iFanboy bf thinks my Evo is huge. **** I'd get a Note II if they had it on Sprint, lol. S3 looks frickin sweet, though I shall miss my OG... I'll most likely sell it back to Sprint for a discount on my renewal. Sucks they're only giving about $60 for OG Evo's now "no respect, no respect!!"
as much as i wanted to wait for the iPhone 5, i bailed early and got the SGS3. for those of considering staying HTC; best of luck to you in Brick city.

I only pay $83 a month for my EVO. That's 69+10+4(roadside)+taxes, I do have a few discounts because of the company(-15%) I work for but $83 a month is a drop in the bucket compared to the plan I had before the EVO (110+) a month. Just wait till you get your EVO, you'll love it and wont mind the bill.
Regardless of whether you choose an Evo or something newer, you're going to have a massive upgrade from the Mogul.
One argument for getting the Evo as opposed to one of the newer devices coming out, is that the Evo has a very established and mature development community.
If you get one of the newer phones as soon as they come out, you may be stuck with no root, or some sort of half-baked workarounds for a while.
Just something to take into consideration. You may not be that interested in rooting your phone so it could very well be a moot point.
My upgrade cycle pretty much means that I'm always going to be getting a new phone no less than 3-4 months after it originally launches. It's worked out really well in each case since I end up coming in to a vibrant and active modding/hacking community that has tons to play with.
frankly, if I were you, I would do this:
Find a used Evo, cheap. Root it, have a **** ton of fun with it. It may be "outdated" soon, but that's a load of crap. still a great phone.
And while you are playing with your new-to-you-evo and rooting it and flashing fun roms and learning about teh Android system in general, watch the actual reviews of the new phones coming out, which ones are unlocked, which ones get good XDA support, Then choose a new phone.

think you missed the $10 second phone add on...
they no longer do that.. family plan starts out at $129.99 so instead of $10 for an additional phone.... they take $10 off... so $69.99 + $59.99 = family plan...
so just tough to take on that extra expense.. especially since my new job is costing me $500-$600 a month in gas.. (my choice and no i will not drive anything else except my '08 silverado crew cab short box z-71.. well maybe a '11 silverado....)

sadly i think ill be downgrading to the thunderbolt. i picked 1 up on the 6th so i could get unlimited data and unless sprint gets there network fixed by the 20th ill be returning my 3d and view and canceling my other 2 lines. i just cant deal with this 28k data network and there continued broken dates of when it will be resolved.
I'll be upgrading to whatever the cool new phone is hot in 22 months, LOL! Hopefully it will include teleportation and a built-in 3D printer.
keeping my evo 4g for the time being, sprint upgrade isnt due till almost a year from now for me, hopefully HTC will stop being douches by then , if not im jumping ship to another phone make, probably one of those galaxy phones all i know is this latest gingerbread release/fiasco has me really wary about htc now...i hate my evo 4g until i can remove this GB 2.3 pos from it
i will never own another Samsung..have had three and they all were POS's.
Hoping something comes out by Oct that is catches my eye.
Im hoping the blast will become a fone and come to Sprint it seems more like a proper evo 2 than the 3d

Galaxy SII probably
I'll stick with the EVO 4G for a long time, until my contract expires next winter.

I just upgraded to the Nexus s 4g. I love this thing, all my future Android phones will be Nexus phones. Just wish Sprint had 4g in San Diego and Twentynine Palms
Well, I would have put my vote toward the Galaxy S II. But when will it ever come Sate side is anyone's guess. Technology moves fast and every day I wait for the GSII is a day closer that something better will come out.
At this point I want to wait for the Nexus 3(Prime). I like the rumored specs, ice cream, and the fact that it will be a developer phone.
I've been fighting with my phone for it to work properly ever since the 2.3.3 upgrade and I'm about to toss it out the window for a Nexus S. I'm just hoping someone on craigslist will be willing to trade. Any comments on this decision? What are your opinions of the Nexus S, especially compared to the Evo 4g...
Also, have any of you traded phones to save money? If I make this trade I will have made 7 trades in the last year, without paying a penny and using basically every high-end android phone sprint has/had to offer. (Also, someone was dumb enough to trade me their epic for my hero. I warned them about the downgrade they were making, but they wanted the phone for its size.)
I'm fed up as well. you might as well trade!
i just traded my Evo for a Nexus S4G...i love the phone, very fast and responsive...the screen is awesome...the radios suck...they just updated and tbh i havent noticed any difference...sum have and sum havent...i miss sense though...i have found all the apps to reproduce wat sense does for my phone...none work as good as sense though...easy to root/unroot...maybe 5 roms total available...lol will be a shock coming from the Evo to be sure...customizing isnt a priority for the devs in the nexus formums it seems...they like it pure...which is fine but kinda boring...
overall i am happy, just wish the radios were better...i only got the NS4G as a stop gap waiting on sumthing better to hit sprint to use my upgrade on...i put my Evo on craigslist and it wasnt in gr8 condition either, had 20 replys by morning...traded less than 16 hours after posting it...hope this helps, spend sum time on the xda forum for the NS4G before you jump though...wish i would have now...good luck
yeah i feel your pain, i had a rooted evo and it broke, so i had to return it for a new one and got one with the update already on it so im using my upgrade for the new motorola photon....i'm going to miss my evo....
I wouldn't even trade on CL. If you have tep you can just exchange it. The tep program allows for exchange of the Evo for the nexus or shift. I was on my first Evo refurb with the locked bootloader with screen separation and a week vibrator motor and I said f*#k it and asked for a nexus. They said sure, but were out of stock. So they're sending me a new Evo in the box to hold me over and then sending me the nexus in two weeks.. all free. And if you don't have tep, just talk nice with a Sprint rep and see what they can do.

I'm sick of my camera locking up after 3 or 4 pictures and then rebooting. No root does make this phone just as boring as any other.

Ok I have been with sprint for less than a week. I came from att. Switched for lower price that's it! With att for just over a year and had a iphone 3gs, iphone 4, dell streak twice, samsung captivate twice, htc inspire, samsung infuse and motorola atrix. Damn that's alot. Anyways, I kinda know my way around a phone. If you guys and gals (I assume) got your hands on a htc infuse you would feel so different about a evo. I got 3 lines all with evos for free plus a port in credit of $375. I had my evo for 2 days! I am not bashing anyone that likes or has a evo at all. This is my opinion. I returned that and got a NS4G, granted I love me a big ol phone, but damn! I am running decks 1.3b with matr1x kernel oc'ed to 1.44 and uv'ed and get a quad of almost 3000! I know the test don't mean crap but I was blown away. No fc's or nothing! Its butter smooth and can get a day of moderate use easy. Plus the screen is so rich in colors. The one con I have is reception, buts it don't help where my house is. It is a very nice phone.
Honestly, if you can't live without sense don't do it cause you wont want to go back. If you don't care for sense, then you should pick one up cause bestbuy has them for free! Plus it is so flippin easy to root.

I loved m EVO before it got replaced due to a routine test failing, now I'm stuck on 2.3 w/ no root. There is a problem with the vibration in the one they gave me however. How much is the Photon running..maybe I'll look into that or making the trade for the Shift.
Add me to the list, I walked blindly into this mess . My Hero finally croaked on me (had been limping it along for months on a intermittent digitizer + generally terrible performance due to getting wet 'why get insurance when you've never destroyed a phone before' Murphy's law? lol) and just bought an Evo 4G knowing it was already a year old, but still looked pretty well spec'd and they were willing to give me a much better early upgrade price on it vs. the Nexus S. First thoughts, holy crap this thing is fast coming from the Hero, but by the end of the work day Friday I was chomping at the bit to get home and start trying some ROMs, specifically the Synergy + Godmode, only to hit a brick wall before even getting started.
I love the phone, but not being able to get rid of all the crapware and mess with different ROMs sucks.
I'm a couple weeks away from being eligible for an upgrade with Sprint. I'm sure a lot of you guys are in the same boat as me. What phone are you looking to get next?
The EVO was as easy choice when it came out. There wasn't anything to compete with it other than the iPhone. I don't try to keep up with all the new phones until I am close to an upgrade. There is just too much out there to possibly keep up with.

Probably going HTC arrive. It will be nothing on upgrade next month and want to tinker with a windows phone 7 for a while. Evo will go to my oldest who is running a HTC hero.
If I don't like that then my wife's phone is due in May. I'll swap it out for something else.
Current Android family
HTC evo 4g x 2
HTC evo shift
HTC hero
Motorola Xoom
Viewsonic G-tablet
HP Touchpad (running classic nerd)
So yeah just want to tinker with something new for a while
My upgrade is coming up next month as well. (I suppose a lot of us who got the EVO on/near launch day are)
I've put a lot of thought into it and I think I'm going for the GNex. Unless I find out the GS3 devices are coming soon.
My wife got the white Evo when that launched (about a month after the original Evo) and she's waiting for the Galaxy Journal.
I would like to see Sprint carry the Xperia line, particularly the S model. Looks pretty sweet. Otherwise I would go with another HTC flagship device. I might also consider the Galaxy Nexus.
My upgrade is also in April (another day 1 adopter) I'm waiting for either the Galaxy Journal or the S3 (depending on release date) Definitely want an LTE capable device. Not sure if the Journal is going to fall in that category or not.
I'm eligible in June but I'll wait for the first Sprint LTE phone at the end of this year, so long as the suck-factor is low for it.
Sprint is aware that a lot of the Evo owners are coming off contract. I am betting the Galaxy Nexus will be coming out before we fall off contract to entice renewal.
That's what I will be going with.
whatever the next LTE sprint phone with huge screen+lots of features.. will be.
june, i'll be eligible for an upgrade, so hopefully we get something good by then
Upgrade next month here as well. Currently there is nothing worth upgrading too.
I'm hoping it won't be too long until we see some LTE devices.
^^^^^^^^^^^^^
Couldn't agree more. The Et4g is nice, but I prefer HTC, and et4g has already been out for a bit now. I don't mind waiting to see what comes at all. Satisfied with my Evo.

I'm in the same boat but will wait and see what comes down the line. I got two E4GT phones for my kids and they are incredible. They lay waste to my EVO. Samsung really stepped up their game. I don't know if HTC will be able to compete from here on out since Sammy has fully commited to Android. I've used the Gnex and don't like it as much as the GSII. I really want a phone that has built in image stabilization for video. Other than that the GSII camera kills! Way better than my little Canon P/S.
I'm waiting for the GNex. I don't have choice since it's my dad's lines, but I think ICS is where it's at.

I am considering moving to Verizon for better LTE coverage.
OG EVO
I don't think I will be upgrading next month when my time comes. There is really nothing out IMHO that can still compete with the OG EVO. Meaning the custom roms, tweeks, etc that you can do to the phone. HTC makes a good solid phone and I would definetly have to stay with a HTC line
Not due till July so ill wait it out for the EVOX/jewel haven't heard to many good things from gnex owners
Pleasantly Mad.
I wanted to wait for the Gnex as well, but that 16gb non-expandable storage limitation is killing me. I want to be able to use my 32gb class 10 with my next phone.

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.
