Getting rid of att, data plan needs serious revamp. 2gbs, come on!
In any case thanks to all of you in the community and to all the devs who made the captivate 99% of what it could be.
Im not 100% sure as to what carrier im going to but, the htc incredible forum looks well developed.
Thanks again!

If you go to verizon, the incredible has been a pleasure to own and as you have seen you can fire up just about anything on it as far as roms go. The incredible s and thunderbolt also should be out soon.
Hey guys I know this is off topic but im a new tmobile customer and I now have the samsung 4g. My question is I only had this phone for 2 weeks. There is a special to get T~Mobile G2 google phone free. Would anyone here help me decide either keep the Samsung or get the G2 google phone from T~Mobile.
Thanks in advance

Brother its all in what u want. I would recommended checking the specs for both at http://www.phonearena.com/phones and also this sgs4g is pretty amazing with the tweaks and mods I have already it is buttery smooth and the screen is brilliant. But like I said check the specs and figure which one fits you better.

Well the G2 has more roms but the SGS4G is more powerful and will probably start getting roms soon so i would recomend keeping it if you have a some patience

If you want a mans phone get the samsung. It seems built more for adults. The G2 reminds me of a teens phone. Just my opinion of course. GREAT roms for the phone already though. But we will be getting some good stuff here soon.
Thanks guys im keeping my Samsung the G2 is a nice phone. But I love my samsung front facing camera I do like video chatting with my girl. Plus getting a little show every now and then since both are going to different colleges. I do like the ginger bread rom on my samsung.

I love my phone and all but in all honesty, return the phone and get the htc sensation or lg g2x. Much much better phones at the same price that are also a little more future proof than this phone.

Same price? I got my SGS4G on flex pay for 50$.
EDIT: Once CM7 comes to our phones it will be future proof. Hell the G1 has 2.2.1 on it thanks to CM.

Hell I have gingerbread running smooth on my old g1that I still play with thanks to COS-DS. Runs good on the g1 actually...check the g1 dev forum if you still have one of those phones.
And yeah the g2 is a nice phone for its form factor. If you like a physical keyboard it has a really nice one. But the with g2x be careful. There are reports of alot of hardware problems, screen problems and other issues. Read up on the g2x before jumping in to that one.

2.3 on the G1? Wow. Didn't think people used it actually still. My friend has 2.3.4 for his Cliq.
I gave my sensation to my girl and got the sgs 2,
I thought the sgs2 would have some good development going on but its more drama, the phone has awesome battery live, but not a concrete date for ics, not to mention that they also made xboarder, a great developer be banned from the forums, but i miss flashing ROMS here guys, perhaps this topic may seem absurd and not appealing to some, but the point is that i need a little feedback to make my session, I also hope this may help others that may be thinking on jumping boats, also my subject has nothing to do with ui or other issues with manufacturers, this is all about rom choices and community feedback, thanks in advanced
Don't feed the trolls.
I had an Amaze for a while, and I will say the first thing I missed was the Sensation community here on XDA.
I mean if you said the wrong thing over there or brought something up that was considered 'taboo' like lack of development, or opened a thread that had been answered before, but you didn't properly search, the mods would, depending on what it was, lock up the thread and possibly issue you a warning.
I think Mike's Rom thread got locked up because he had a falling out with the Mod. I also remember the Dev you mentioned one day locked up all his threads as a warning to all to stop asking him for ETA's and endless 'noob' questions.
Stuff like that doesn't happen here on the Sensation forums.
For me it was just too much drama over there. The Amaze is a great phone and I do wonder what it would be like if it was an international phone and S-off was achieved. I think the community for it would be much different.
Just my personal viewpoint on it.

Honestly, if you want ROM choices then a GS2 does look like a better option.
Wasn't ICS meant to come in March for the GS2?
Sure. Come on back.

Its coming out in march for the sensation as well.
I'm in a similar situation .. my wife and I got the sensations then I upgraded to sgs2 .. jz got the phone for less then 3 days then I let her play with it .. and the next thing i know her sim was in it and either that or I cook my own dinner (so you know how it turned out.
Anyway, the only thing I liked was the hardware .. screen size, amoled, 1.5ghz', internal storage, battery .. and that's it! And I hated that touchwiz so so much that I bought spb for cover up. And yes, the only guy that can bring ics is banned and criticized .. right now theres no word on ics update for Sammy t989 .. only att in march if I'm not mistaken.
Though it irritated me with wifi death grip on sensation and poor battery life on stock rom. So how did u like the sgs2?

I doubted .. there are very few roms for tmo sgs2 and all are GB roms .. I believe the one in march is for att and international version only

I came from a SGS2...at first I hated the sensation because it felt a lot different and my modded SGS2 was insanely fast and stable and had tons of memory.
I've now rooted and s-off my sensation...oc'd to 1800+...and running Elagancia ICS and freaking love this phone now!
The community here and the development is sooooo much better than over at the SGS2 side.
I don't regret moving over to the Sensation at all.

On top of it, what battery is being used here?
It's super smooth....buy since I really don't need it that high all the time....I clock back down to 1720+ using the latest 1.30 kernel (whatever the newest one is)
I'm using a anker battery that came with the phone when I got it from someone else.
I get great battery life...and I'm a heavy user. GPS always on...BT always on....screen brightness moderate...always data or WiFi...I tether for my wife's iPhone too

Same story buddy, those are exactly the only aspects I like about sgs2 yet I think qhd seems better than samoled that at points yeah its bright yet in times fonts and some good walpapers loom cheap, being a Samsung device I assumed it was gonna have ics but I guessed wrong at least for Tmobile version, nope, sensation is ahead of the game, by miles with different builds, I still have some hope by the end of this month, if we dont get any ics, am snatching my sensation back from my girl, there may be even a newer build for it by then

I think this thread has answered my questions for me,S2 forums seem to have stagnated at the moment,nothing new and interesting seems to be coming out any more and there so many people repeating themselves on there youde think your in a parrot farm,s2 is like a rocket but its plastic and for an audiophile like myself,sound quility is a bit of letdown,i like s2 but i dont think they like me,my 3rd one has now broke so its time to look elsewhere and its be between sensation xe or evo 3d.i think the xe is winning me over not just as a device but the variety of development within the community
I just thought I'd post up how great it has been to own this phone.
I officially moved on when I picked up a Galaxy S3 last Thursday, but this phone had been one of the best I've owned until the S3. The community has been great as well.
I still have the Glacier, but I went ahead and wiped it completely and installed Dark Unicorn on it [since it seems to be the most stable based on what I've read] and had my 13-yo son inherit it (he's coming from a myTouch 3G).
I'll still be around [the TMo S3 forums, mostly], but I just wanted to post this as a thanks to the Glacier/myTouch 4G community/devs that has supported this workhorse for so long.
Goodluck over there bro. Those sammy fanboys can be a bit wacky haha
Imagine what development will be like over there...

Have fun with your Galaxy S3 :victory:
Just wanted to give a shout out to the great XDA community and all the awesome developers we have for the Sensation.
I am moving on. I purchased a LG G2 a couple days ago. My sensation will still be in the family but I won't using it anymore. I'm going to flash it back to something closer to stock - probably Elegancia - and hand it down to my 13-year old son. Perhaps he'll find his way here and start flashing it again. There is still plenty a great development going on here for the Sensation. It almost makes me sad to be moving on.
And before anyone asks why a G2 instead of an N5... one word: BATTERY. With everything coming with a non-removable battery these days, I wanted phattest batt available. And considering the N5 doesn't offer up anything better than the G2 other than KitKat out of the box, the battery difference made the decision a no-brainer for me.
Once again, thanks to the Sensational XDA community! :good::good:
Before some mods are closing this thread....
Great choice, Bro
Awesome phone and yeah goodbye
Enjoy!!
