Damn you're quick. I just got this email 5 minutes ago. Pretty impressive specs

Samsung will probably release/announce the s4 before they get it to market and kill them again.
I actually thought I posted this a few hours ago but I guess my post didn't go through
It looks nice, not sold on Sense though. Although I heard moving away from Tegra chips makes it easier for the dev commnity (and achieving S-OFF).
This is true. I heard the big day is March 17th for the S IV. I may hope onto it since develoment for some HTC devices seem to be .
The S IV in less than a month?!?? Damn that Exponential Growth..........
DAMN YOU KURZWEIL!!!!!!
the big day for the ANNOUNCEMENT of the sIV is in a month.
Ultra...so it must be better
Yeah my phone has Snapdragon and is well supported by the dev com
HTC fell into the 'better mousetrap' line of thinking last year with the One X/One S, and did not market these phones like they should have. To no one's surprise, they got flattened by Samsung's marketing campaign in the latter part of 2012.
Hopefully they've learned from their mistakes this time, although I wonder if it's too little, too late for them.
And by the way, anybody notice how close HTC made Sense on that phone look like their Windows phones? They're really pushing hard the idea of HTC phones differentiating themselves from other OEMs, regardless of OS.
looks cool, but I don't want HTC.
what has turned you off? slow dev support?
mainly slow dev support due to HTC's continued creativity in thwarting S-Off. Also, slow (illegal) release of source code for their kernels/version's of android....
Troof. Rooting and modding a Samsung is about 1000x easier. Modding my wife's EvoLTE is a nightmare.
So weird, you think they would want to cater to whomever after losing their asses for so long.
, Samsung offered Cyanogen a job about two years ago and he took it. This could have something to do with it (though his own list of easy to dev phones lists sony's as number one and samsung as number two)
s-off?
Quick definition in the first paragraph here
Looks great but does it have an amovible battery? A micro sd slot? What kind of screen?
I see people saying Samsung gets better buys only because of their marketing but it's not true, they get the casual users that way they make great products as well.
Also Sony and HTC's strategies of coming up with new flagships every 3 months is confusing and doesn't help their case.
Is it just a smaller Droid DNA?
Truth . SII --> SIII --> S IV. You know what's their yearly flagship.
HTC? One X. 6 months later...One X+. 6 months later...One. What??
you forgot the the Note 1 and Note 2 in there.

Once you have rooted an HTC, its party time TBH
I did use the HTC All in One toolkit, but still, the Android terminology lost me
Bootloaderrecoveryfruitloopbootloop WTF
Thankfully, for the One S, dev support is going strong; we already had Sense based ROM, but AOSP roms have popped up like crazy recently on XDA
- Vanilla Rootbox
- PAC-MAN (my current driver)
- Baked Blacked Bean
- Dark Jelly S
- Liquidsmooth
- Carbon
