Will they finally admit it?? - Page 4

It's really a great time to be a phone junkie, there are so many options for everyone to choose. For now I decided to get Pre, it does slow down sometimes but it's a "PHONE" you gotta just realize that life won't end because of 1 or 2 extra seconds of waiting. I think the Pre does lots of things well and needs improvements (calendar).

I had WM for 2+ years and enjoyed flashing roms and making the phone unique for my use. The diamond sometimes would lag lag lag but I kept it and it worked well when not lagging. Being able to reg hack in WM for tethering is great and I can't wait for WM to move forward with a better interface. I wanted to try something new so I retired the diamond and moved to the Pre.

Android has lots of promise and I almost jumped to the Hero but I didn't want to go back to a Vkeyboard. When a strong Android player comes to Sprint (with a real keyboard) I'll pick it up and enjoy it.

Every OS and phone has its strength and weaknesses just enjoy what you have and if you don't like it jump ship to something else.

I'm not complaining about anything at all. Where the hell did that satement come from? Like i said, I love my Diamond. If it bothers you that much that people prefer other operating systems, then GTFO the thread. I'm just stating why I believe Android and WebOS are superior. If you disagree, i recommend you return that Pre of yours. I don't car whether or not you follow trends or just flash because you can or whatever. It doesn't matter. Great. You're the only person on earth that doesn't do things based on the masses. Whatever. Lets just move the f*ck on.

stop getting all worked up if someone doesn't agree with your opinion. I love windows(had it for a little over four years) its very powerful but unlike other OS's,its either too powerful for the hardware its coupled with or it isn't optimized for the hardware. Either way, the point is, just like everyone else, I flashed custom roms to obtain the speed and stabilty of the stock roms on other OS's. To me this shows interest in other OS's

The pre is fine for now. I would like to see a HTC HD 2 with Sprint and then I will go back to WM.

Everyone swears the touch pro2 is such an amazing device, yet if it is...why are they waiting on an unlocker to flash custom roms?? See what I'm trying to say is windows needs to be tweaked all the time because its too slow and unstable.. Its always a battle of adding and subtracting files just to get it(windows) to run in an acceptable manner.while those of us that have moved on to the pre's,hero's and even iphones have complete satisfaction(as far as performance) right out the box. I also find it funny that the #1 argument windows users make is that its the most customisable OS, yet when you look at the thread titles..a majority of the themes or shells they add are to make their phones look like a hero(hello spb and sensuite) or someone is asking whether or not android or webOS can run on their phones.. Doesn't this mean you're interested in another OS outside of windows?? I'm trying to prove this to everyone and I need help. Please direct others to this thread and vote in my OS poll by clicking the link in my signature. Help me show that its not all about windows anymore. I'm headed to the android and very small iphone forum as well. If anyone agrees with me I would really appreciate ur show of support by hitting the thanks button..

i use windows mobile. as soon as my contract finishes IM OUT
WIN MO IS SO DAMN LAGGY.
iphone is so smooth

me im sticking with the pre..iphone is a no go for me.. cause i dont feel like paying 90 or more on a plan. with spotty 3g cov. not to mention I dont like apple..lol

If i had to choose another carrier other than sprint it would be tmobile even though i would be stuck with edge for data,lol

I always stick with stock roms. Only thing I have done was change radio(once on tp),taskbar and customize tf3d(change clock & slider icons) . Tried the pre-hated it,tried the hero-liked it a little better than the pre but still wouldnt buy it. Im very happy with my phone.

spiritcrusher33 · #40 (**permalink**) 11-11-2009, 05:45 PM

now see to me that is exactly how a person should explain why they like what they currently use.. u didnt bash or hate on the pre or the hero.. and just stated u like wm.. and the reasons why.

so what ecxactly did u hate bout the pre...?

I had one right after launch and didnt care for it at the time..
but came back a month ago and have been hooked since..
