I've been searching around and found some posts mentioning to try remove sim card, so I did that (after finally finding something strong and thin enough to fit in the eject hole) and while it didnt seem to help at first, I was reading some more and it just powered on seemingly by it self.

 

Yep, SIM cards are the work of the devil known as GSM.

Do so at your own risk. If you do, you may be subject to arrest by the mattress tag police.   AJ

Ok just left walmart and basically performance was the same on both devices. As we headed to the back of the store both phones dropped to 3g but once we got back to within a few feet of the registers

Well, the phone whore in me forced me to get a gs4 this morning. So I have an HTC One on one line and a GS4 on the other, will run as many comparative tests as I can.

I'm just curious, did you stimulate the battery pull?

 

 

 

I messed with it all night holding every possible combination of buttons down.

 

 

yup.

What cases do you guys have? I am thinking of a commuter otterbox or a cruzerlite. I'm not too rough with my phones, more for scratches and the rare 5 foot drop on possible concrete.

I have the Double Dip Flip case from HTC, but I've been looking for a different case and it's nearly impossible to find in retail stores. I went to four different stores yesterday and they didn't have anything. It was ridiculous!

I started with an Otterbox Commuter since I loved the one on my Evo LTE.  I liked it but for some reason not as much as I thought I would.  Maybe I was still getting used to the phone.  Then I got the Best Buy Platinum case (same as the Seidio Surface) and I like it more, but now I'm wanting something with a bit more protection.  I'm considering now the Incipio Dual Pro CF, but my concern with that is the silicone stretching out too much over time.  What stinks is like Luis said; it's hard to find any of this stuff in stores.  Something that probably would have been a 10 minute decision if I could compare them to takes a while since you're ordering stuff online.

My thoughts exactly, to be honest, I would have bought a case on the spot at this point I just want something else to exchange every now and then. These retail stores are honestly losing out on some money... Oh well, amazon it is then :P

I know there is 20% off accessories at sprint.com also(no need to buy two or more). I do like me some amazon though haha.

 

Who wants a Gold HTC ONE?

I think it actually looks nice, a bit flashy though.

I think I just found the case I want. It's the UAG one, I loved the white one and it's everything I'm looking for in a case. I love the industrial design.

(I'll actually be getting it off Amazon cause it's cheaper :P)

They should have just gold plated the front as well.

I read about it a few years ago. Apparently the first set of OG EVOs were running a version of Android (2.0 ?), and a version of Sense that did not have an on-screen notification of WiMAX 4G, so HTC included a second LED light to let users know when the had 4G WiMAX signal.

 

As far as I know, the WiMAX LED was disabled on the EVO devices when the received the OTA to Gingerbread 2.3. I also believe that in the last run of OG EVO, they stopped including the WiMAX LED. My old OG EVO, that I bought in September of 2011 did not seem to have the second, WiMAX LED. I personally tried several methods to activate the second LED and none of the methods worked.

This actually made me miss my OG EVO... I bought mine in December 2010 and can confirm that the WiMax LED was disabled, as I had use of WiMax from day 1 with that phone and never once saw that LED light up.

Two words.... Tri band

 

I'm assuming you are sticking to your lte evo until they come out. I'm just thinking the next htc phone won't be released until next year.

Well my upgrade isn't until January 1. I'm sticking it out until then my next phone most likely won't be an HTC phone. I say Tri band because I want a device that will utilize all of sprints bands. 800 for coverage in which I need for in building reception and 1900/2500 for capacity and speed. If you can wait a couple months it'll be worth it

In pretty sure that every flagship HTC device that is released from here on out well have them.

 

True, when do you think the next flagship is? Later this year for the rumored T6 if true, or sometime  in 2014?

I came across this article and I am curious as to if it would work for the Sprint variant. As HTC announced they would try to get Google Edition on early adopters of the One. Maybe those of you who are ROM experience can shed some light. The author even included the link to download the ROM.

      https://www.lightreading.com/6g/5g-advanced-arrives-with-3gpp-s-release-18 Wonder how long until T-Mobile moves on this? My guess is some by the Galaxy S25 in January or February.

      Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

      Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.

      Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.
