POS X, time for new phone.

**stonehenge** · 05-30-2011, 08:59 PM

Don't want anything on Verizon even if I had money. Send me the fascinate to play with.

race2c · 05-30-2011, 09:24 PM

True. From all the reviews, its sounding like all the new VZW android devices are failing on hardcore. No reason to use my upgrade on something that sucks.

**stonehenge** · 05-30-2011, 10:56 PM

Got the nvidia games to work. Besides installing the app, I had to download and apply an nvidia plugin file.

So, does this mean the X2 isn't worth a shit? I was thinking about picking it up tomorrow, but maybe I should hold off.

Its all personal preference. The screen is suppose to be sub-par tho.

race2c · 05-31-2011, 03:32 AM

I, possibly Juan, was talking about the LG Revolution more than anything. Those are more so the CDMA dual-core phones.

The DX2 is dual-core too, but I haven't read any reviews on it yet. Juan and Mike may have.

**stonehenge** · 05-31-2011, 03:51 AM

DX2 is missing 4G
Revolution has Bing and no recovery
Thunderbolt is buggy and shit battery
Charge is laggy
Xperia Play is bulky and underpowered, no 4G

Hmm what else.

MikeH · 05-31-2011, 03:54 AM

would get a charge over all of them if keeping stock.

**stonehenge** · 05-31-2011, 07:07 AM

Wife has upgrade. Told her to wait for D3. Might not be 4G (

) but otherwise should be a beast and she insists on a keyboard and dgaf about roms.

race2c · 05-31-2011, 10:22 AM

Amazon android application of the day: plants vs zombies (wifi download).

JayBo · 05-31-2011, 01:16 PM

I called Verizon Thursday.

Told them my problems with Tbolt
They said that it was HTC's problem, and giving me a new phone would not fix the problem. That I could do a factory reset and it should not reboot anymore, but until HTC released a patch for the stupid software update they had a few weeks ago, I was shit out of luck.

**stonehenge** · 05-31-2011, 01:37 PM

MikeH · 05-31-2011, 03:25 PM

Call again, talk to managers, I don't know a single person that hasn't got theirs replaced when they called.

**stonehenge** · 05-31-2011, 03:26 PM

PvZ kinda addicting. Saw someone on twitter say it lagged and was a disappointment on a Tegra 2 tablet. Works fine on X

Manbearpig · 05-31-2011, 03:27 PM

Nyan Cat live wallpaper?

Tegra...

Fatso · 05-31-2011, 05:31 PM

Im pretty convinced that the Nexus s is an awful phone. I can stand next to my buddy who has a droid on the same service provider as me where he is showing strong voice and data receiption.

I look at mine, and I am getting NOTHING. Called a sprint repair center and will end up taking it by there sometime this week for them to look at.

Fiance is having the same issues I am, same phone.

**stonehenge** · 05-31-2011, 07:41 PM

Well that sucks, I don't think I've heard anything about them having bad reception. Dunno though, I've been on VZW forever so don't have any experience with any Sprint phones.

DFW a Nexus S tho

---------- Post added at 11:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:56 AM ----------

Hmm I wonder if Android tablet prices will start getting lower with so many people making them. ASUS, ViewSonic, MSI, Motorola, HTC, Samsung, Notion Ink, Acer, LG, etc are all making tablets that look like they are going to be pretty nice.

Didn't include all the shady looking tablet makers

Cez★ · 05-31-2011, 07:56 PM

sprint network sucks near heath

Fatso · 05-31-2011, 08:18 PM

After more digging, there are a ton of complaints describing what I am experiencing right now with the Nexus.

So i called homeboy at the store I bought this from and I am going over to the Epic. Looking at real world performance between the Epic and the Nexus, the Epic walks all over the Nexus, all because the Nexus has a cheap radio.

**stonehenge** · 05-31-2011, 08:24 PM

Well that's lame considering the AT&T version is nice and the Epic is also a Samsung.

Yea, but ATT version doesnt run on WiMAX. So im sure the radios between the two are different.

Like I said, I dont fully understand it, buy the honey moon period with this phone is over and it is getting returned.
