Not gonna lie I'm considering upgrading to the SGSIII, simply because once the aftermarket ROMS come out I'll be on that improved battery and overall performance

Copped the Atrix laptop dock for $60 off Newegg. Love it. It starts to struggle if you push it too hard, but as a basic use anywhere netbook, ,media station, and word processor it's dope. Screen is nice(11.5") and the battery life is long(10+ hours).

Using it I'm shocked how poor of a job they did marketing this. It has as two fully functional USB ports. You can use a mouse, keyboard, game-pad for emulation, and stream directly off thumb drives and external hard drives. You can even print(not sure why you would, but why not?). Netflix and HBOGO are fully functional as is anything you can see on your phone(fit to wide screen if you so choose). Playstation and SNES emulators run beautifully on the bigger screen. It's definitely a must cop for Atrix owners for the prices you can find it at now. I wouldn't have felt ripped off paying $199.99 for it.

 

[Rice N Beans]

Yeah the problem was the initial price. EVERYBODY complained about that considering it doesn't do anything else without the phone.

$60 is pretty good though. Nice pickup.

the kickstand makes no damn sense to me. Who really sits back and watches their phone like that?

It's actually one of the main reasons I'm choosing to get this phone. It comes in handy at work when I'm bored and want to watch netflix or my dvr stuff through the dish network app using slingbox. Just pull out the kickstand and enjoy

is there anyway to add an extra battery for the evo 4g lte?

 

[dracon]

I got sprint. REally looking forward to that evo 4g. HTC always been my favorite. Not eligible for upgrade though, but sprint got a buyup program so I can pay a little more to be eligible. Phone is bad though.

Nope, but if you peep slashgear's review, they said the battery life is great on the phone.

 

[skeetsinternal]

is your phone rooted already?

flashin a rom is easy

1. copy rom file on to sd card
2. reboot phone into recovery
3. scroll down to "install from sd"
4. find your rom file and select it
5. exit recovery and reboot your phone

this is the standard "Easy" method but it varies from rom to rom some require "full wipes" before you flash

what kind of phone you have

I have the GSII skyrocket and want that new ICS. Is this how I would install the new ICS. Also how you root? Not sure if I make sense cuz this shyts confusing to me
