[HTC EVO 3D] :
I pulled the specs I posted in the 1st post from HTC's website.

I don't think that will be necessary and everyone knows what the original Evo has being that for the most part we all own one.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
FAIL!

You created your thread at 04:52 PM 03/22/2011

I created my thread at 02:25 PM 03/22/2011

Take a seat.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scotty_Two:
Yep, no charging and kickstand abilities at the same time is what it looks like. That really is pretty stupid design in my opinion. I wonder if the side is the only place that the hardware could fit the USB port or if HTC just wanted to be lame like Motorola. I talk on the phone with my right hand so I can't wait to have it plugged in and have a cable poking out the side of my face at the same time when I'm talking.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
The charging port is on the left side of the phone. That means that you can charge and use the kickstand at the same time. You won't be able to charge and talk at the same time but it's not that serious. Just unplug it when making a call.
[HTC EVO 3D] jxr94:
The phone rests on its left side when that specific case has the kick stand out. No charging while kickstanding for this case.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Ok I see it now. Correct me if I'm wrong but can't they just redesign the case?
[HTC EVO 3D] gmap516:
Seat taken.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scotty_Two:
I think the better question is if they can make a case with a kickstand that doesn't make it too much more bulky, why didn't (or don't) they just make a battery door with the kickstand built in? Maybe an aftermarket company can whip something up of the sort.
[HTC EVO 3D] Scotty_Two:
And why does it look like the hole on the top right of the kickstand case is more towards the back and not the top where the headphone jack is? Plus it looks way bigger than it needs to be for just a 3.5mm jack.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
It's gravy dude.

I'm pretty sure Case-Mate will make a nice case as soon as they make the iPhone 5 ones.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Not good news for us.....

http://www.engadget.com/2011/03/24/htc-locks-down-incredible-s-against-custom-roms-too-starts-a-fi/

crossing fingers Sprint has a say in it and makes them not lock it down like that...

but according to BSOD they are leaving it open... lol
[HTC EVO 3D] m4rk0358:
There are so many different shapes and sizes of headphone connectors that you have to build some leeway in it.
[HTC EVO 3D] swaze:
If the incredible were on sprint it might be an issue but since its on verizon it means nothing for sprint customers.

Sent from my HTC Evo running CM7
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Just noting they did the same on the Thunderbolt though. I'm hoping that its a Verizon thing but the fact that it is done on the Incridible S which isn't a VZ phone leads the possibility that it could be an HTC change themselves across the board...
[HTC EVO 3D] DrDr3z85:
Dilemma

I'm loving this Evo 3D but man I want a tablet too. I currently have an evo which I love and well i've had it since launch anyways my question to you al is Evo 3D or tablet .... I'm not sure if I can upgrade without buying the phone outright. Anyways all opinion will be gladly taken.

Thanks
[HTC EVO 3D] ExMM:
Someone knows if it's built with the Adreno GPU or the Nvidia Tegra?
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Really?? have you not read anything at all about the 3D?

It does NOT have the Terga in it.
[HTC EVO 3D] cdszoke:
It holds the mystical beast known as the Adreno 220.
[HTC EVO 3D] ExMM:
Apology, I didn't read anything about the 3D... What do u mean?

Is the Adreno 220 better than Tegra?

EDIT: I Searched in internet and I found many topics.....this Adreno 220 seems Awesome!!
[HTC EVO 3D] cdszoke:
The gpu is beast. The only real problem with the hardware would be that fact the dual core processors are a8 instead of a9. I am guessing that is why they clocked the cores @ 1.2 to get tech nerds from caring?

Either way it is my next phone. Apple fanboys(girls) have their Iphones and I believe the smarter people have our evo's ;p.

Note: Last comment was out of pure fun teasing not trying to flame.
[HTC EVO 3D] o0adam0o:
So is there a release date? My contract is not up till Oct 2011. If the bootloader is locked I hope that is enough time to have it wide open.
[HTC EVO 3D] jaime2563:
I'm hoping for a June release. June 4th to be exact.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mike Fitz:
Guess I'm looking at the 3D thing kinda like 4G on the EVO, first steps and hope it takes off quickly. Almost a year after buying the phone and $90.00 worth of "premium data" fees later, I havent had 4G on for more than an hour because it's not worth leaving it on all the time for the little amount I can actually get coverage.

I'm not a fan of 3D and if there was a non 3D version of the same phone with the same specs I'd probably buy it instead. Maybe I'm getting too old to stand on the bleeding edge any more?

That said, I love my EVO and will probably be putting a pre-order in as soon as it opens.
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I'm guessing it will be out by June. If you contract is up in Oct then you may be eligible before your contract end date.
[HTC EVO 3D] eck0728:
I am also going to guess that it will be coming out in June, companies like to keep trends of when they release new phones especially HTC.
[HTC EVO 3D] k2buckley:
You do know that you can toggle the 3d off, so that it's just normal display all the time. 3d is like an optional feature. So, with 3d toggled off, it basically is the phone that you desire....with the same specs and no 3d. Buy one!
[HTC EVO 3D] Mike Fitz:
True, but it also added an on/off switch on the side of the body and an extra camera to the back. if it was just a software toggle and used single camera (that took nice pictures) maybe I wouldn't be as cool to the idea.
[HTC EVO 3D] deviouskater:
HTC's EVO 3D kickstand case:

Now that's a kickstands. Now to solve the problem of charging with kick stand down. Only thing I could think of would be a dock which would probable not work with that case from past products
[HTC EVO 3D] :
Will update later.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigjim1488:
The price for this phone will scare me
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I'm guessing that it'll cost around $200-$300. I'm betting on a $249 price tag but you never know.
[HTC EVO 3D] Rippley05:
That kickstand looks like it goes over the battery door instead of replacing it... Sadly

Sent from the batcave thanks to the xda "premUim" app!
[HTC EVO 3D] aph:
I believe that's 4 GB
[HTC EVO 3D] Tre Lawrence:
I like it. Will let the early adopters beta test, and pick up a few months later... :D
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
I'm thinking $199 because technology costs always come down. Not only that, They have to be saving some money on other things. For example they've eliminated the kickstand and went to a single hdmi/usb port from 2 separate ports.
[HTC EVO 3D] Bigjim1488:
Probably so but that would be with an upgrade.......sprint took away my one year upgrade sadly. This phone will cost me full price!
[HTC EVO 3D] djdisturbed:
are they not going to do like they used to its was 1/2 of the full discount for 1 year upgrade in the past and you got the full upgrade after 2 years. I thought i read somewhere thats what they were going back to on the new system. you can upgrade after the first year, but you only get $75 upgrade discount instead of the full $150 discount.
[HTC EVO 3D] bradley26:
[QUOTaph;12367889]I believe that's 4 GB[/QUOTE]

On the HTC site it shows only 1 GB of internal storage and on Sprint's site it shows 4 GB of internal storage so who knows.
[HTC EVO 3D] blakeboys:
Another link regarding the kick stand.

Here
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
What you're describing is the Silver level of the new Premier programs. The problem isn't just that they cut the $150 is half, they also eliminated the usual $100 MIR. So what you end up with is just $75 off of full retail. Personally, if that's it and I still wanted the phone, I'd just do the full retail so there's nothing contractually I might get locked in to.
[HTC EVO 3D] eluno:
On the HTC site it shows only 1 GB of internal storage and on Sprint's site it shows 4 GB of internal storage so who knows.[/QUOTE]

yea i think i seen somewere were it said 1gb ram and 4gb rom. and then it will also most likely come with a micro sd card. maybe 16gb
[HTC EVO 3D] :
I'll update this thread with the info as it comes out. The HTC site states 1GB so who knows. I'm talking to my HTC guy so I can get a hands on with the phone before it comes out. I was able to play with the HTC Evo a month and a half before it came out. I will look into it and report what I find. I'll also do a system dump of the files so we can get to rooting it.

Regarding upgrading I called Sprint in January and they told me I would still be able to upgrade in June. It is documented on my account so the rep said I would have to call in when the 3D comes out and have them reset my upgrade eligibility. I would call and find out and hope you get a dumb rep who will put a note on your account saying you will be eligible for upgrade. It's my understanding that you aren't eligible but since she put a note on my account and it's documented Sprint has to honor it.

Specs-Ok on Evo 3D

Nice device i own a Evo i guess this will be the 3rd best spec device Atrix 4g Best Hardware Lg 2X best Media speed Evo 3D not very fast but lots of media features first Qhd 3d screen But no Tegra 2 the future no DDR2 pc ram like Atrix no 16Gigs Rom like Atrix or Bio Metrics no Full Dual BOOT UBUNTU OR FireFox like Atrix So I will Stick to the Atrix 4g Not Att turn on your HSUPA in April like you said For the Atrix and Devs unlock the non encripted bootloader and Wow A New beast we have.
[HTC EVO 3D] spyngamerman:
im excited i cant wait !!!!!!!!!!kickstand not being there is not that big of a deal to me idc a whole lot about the 3d but its will be nice so i can make some videos with it but man the specs are just damn sexy im saving up for it since i switched to sprint just to get the evo last year ill have to more then likely buy it full price and sell my evo and accessories to get this :(

cant see wht people are *****ign about design and the "3d gimmick" if u don't like it don't buy it simple as that only thing i do think would be nice is if it had the LTE built in for future upgrades but regardless im still gonna buy it and probably hold onto it for a year anyways so by then they'll have a evo 4D 5g lte or some **** :)

anyways great to see the forum activity on this looks just liek old times when i was looking into the evo :)
[HTC EVO 3D] engelsione:
Is this Evo 3D runs 3G, and 4G?
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
Accept i heard that the atrix only uses one core for the phone, and one for the desktop. Accept we don't know what kind of memory the evo 3d uses... we don't even have official benchmarks for it so you cant really compare it yet...
[HTC EVO 3D] iSaint:
Yes

10 char
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
I haven't heard that, but based on what Sprint/Qualcomm has been saying, it's not true.

Sprint/Qualcomm has stated a reason that the MSM8660 was better then the Tegra 2 was that on the Tegra 2, if one core was running at 600mhz, the 2nd core would always run the same because it was a synchronous. They said the MSM8660 was asynchronous, meaning if the 2nd core wasn't need it basically didn't need to be used... In face they say they can run at separate speeds as needed.
[HTC EVO 3D] mortzz:
Does anybody know yet if this thing will support .MKV file containers? They're typically H.264 .MP4 video and either AC3 or DTS(which it probably won't support) audio.

It would seriously diminish my interest if it didn't. So much HD content these days is in .MKV containers. I hate remuxing.
[HTC EVO 3D] bradleyw801:
In the OP it states that the phone has HID bluetooth profiles? That means that the Wii Controller app should work without rooting and installing an AOSP rom.

HID profiles are my #1 reason for using AOSP roms. The stock Evo 4G only supports SPP bluetooth.

OP, where did you get that info? That's a pretty big deal in my opinion.

[HTC EVO 3D] GeneralSpecific:
Take this with a grain of salt, but a rep called me today letting me know that I am eligible for the gold membership bla bla bla. I started asking him questions about the 3D, he said it is set to be released in the last week of June.

I dunno if there is a set release date yet, if so disregard. Hope this helps
[HTC EVO 3D] xHausx:
That was when the original evo was released so it sounds about right. I think it was the 27th of June last year.
[HTC EVO 3D] nucentury08:
Hardware not up to date for me no Bio metrics no 16gigs Rom no DDR2 PC ram Dual Channel No Tegra 2 Chip System and 3D has nothing to do with speed oh and no dualboot Ubuntu and full Firefox no go for me
[HTC EVO 3D] jdsingle:
What? I think you're off by about 23 days or so...June 4th was when EVO 4G was released.
[HTC EVO 3D] novanosis85:
What phone has that?

Oh you do know?

Then buy that phone and never show your face here again.
[HTC EVO 3D] jvs60:
Looks like the 3D won't be using the new wimax chip, but the older power hungry sqn1210. Here's information on the newer chip: http://telecommunicationnews.net/2011/03/22/sequans-introduces-sqn1310-new-mobile-wimax-chip/
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
HTC's had it posted on their EVO 3D page that they will be using the SQN1210. And to be honest, I'm not sure which is better. Other then the size (1210 is 10x10 and 1310 is 9x9), they both seems to do the same and are both 65nm.

What HTC/Sprint should do is use the Beceem BSC500. That way they can do both LTE and WiMax.
[HTC EVO 3D] jvs60:
What do we have in the evo 4g?
[HTC EVO 3D] Teddy Bruckshut:
I'm lock on the 'dual' 5MP rear cameras. I've seen reports that 2D pictures will combine to take 10MP photos. Is that true?
[HTC EVO 3D] cdszoke:
Based on what I read and saw from the CTIA event that 10mp photo is false. When in 2d mode, only the primary camera will be used. The man who posted on the one forum before the event is obviously either a liar, or he is telling us stuff the sprint reps don't know about.
[HTC EVO 3D] cdszoke:
Tegra 2 chip? Hrmm based on Anandtech early benchmarks of the adreno 220, adreno 220 is faster than tegra 2.

http://www.anandtech.com/show/4243/d...0-benchmarks/1

3d has nothing to do with speed but you still sound like an idiot.
[HTC EVO 3D] sleepydose:
i do. the kickstand does help alot though. especially if your 'running it like a ppc" which it is. haha but im still prolly getting this phone
[HTC EVO 3D] Jon.StatiK:
I'm coming from a mdpi device (HTC Hero). A phone of this magnitude of an upgrade is quite possibly going to blow my mind. Funny thing is 2 days before this was announced I told my buddy at Sprint to order me an Epic and he couldn't for a bill only a few days late on another account. I think it's destiny! Haha
[HTC EVO 3D] fanesxx:
pretty much, you see they're just trying to put to that inception in you
[HTC EVO 3D] xusxmarinesx:
ey question i know its a qhd but do you think the colors would be washed out?
[HTC EVO 3D] NewZJ:
qHD is only the resolution, not the screen type, we haven't confirmed what screen it will have
[HTC EVO 3D] umd:
It's been told S-LCD in CTIA videos. I think there is no doubt on that.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Check out the new benchmarks!!!

http://www.engadget.com/2011/04/02/qualcomms-1-5ghz-dual-core-msm8660-destroys-the-competition-in/

given oc'd to 1.5 ours at 1.2 should still be near the top if not the top of the list.
[HTC EVO 3D] Mr.Shroom:
I'm excited

In my opinion

Pros:

3D : even if it's a gimmick.

I thought the kickstand was a gimmick, but end up using it a lot.

AS Dual core:will be speedy :D not mentioning the all other hardware ups.

Dedicated camera button : It's nice to have a camera button is the spot where all cameras have a button

Cons:

port on side instead of bottom of phone.

lack of kickstand:liked how the kickstand fit so nicely into the design.A case with a kickstand is not worth the extra bulk

mixed bag:

HDMI out via MHL: don't want to go buy new cords and stuff, but like the fact less to break. My Evo's HDMI port broke and is now being fixed. I won't have my evo back til the 15th :(

With that said I can hardly wait to get my hands on one of these bad boys. With the 3d, I'll probably use it all the time, considering when sharing pics I usually just hand my hone to whoever i'm showing them to. Plus i would be surprised if you couldn't get the 2d pics from the 3d ones.

On another note the new sense features look cool. Will end up going to CM when it comes to the Evo 3d though.

oh yeah, does anyone know if netflix will be supported on this phone?
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
There's another CON... It's that the MSM8660 is based on Cortex A8, versus A9. Other then speed increases with using A9, I'm not sure if it will effect anything else. What I mean by this is that when some phones like the Samsung Moment were built, they used a processor based on A7, when and Flash became available, anything less then A8 wasn't supported. Not that it matters since The Moment never got an official upgrade to Froyo; I'm just pointing out, something similar might happen with anything based on these new Qualcomm SoC's using A8.
[HTC EVO 3D] crabjoe:
What happens when these other 1ghz dual core processors gets overclocked to 1.5ghz?
[HTC EVO 3D] nxdu:
I would like to see a fair benchmark as well.
[HTC EVO 3D] aimbdd:
A lot of phones cant push it that far.
[HTC EVO 3D] bradleyw801:
Evo 4G can only overclock to 1.19ghz. I think the benchmark test is showing the maximum that a processor can overclock to.

The Evo 3D should be able to overclock to 1.5ghz without any problems. A 1ghz can't.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Not true, my hd2 is a 1ghz and can overclock to 1.5ghz
[HTC EVO 3D] vabronxboogie:
All those people who are talking **** about the 3D part are missing the fact that this phone is powerful. I agree with you that people have to have this phone in front of you in order to down this. Without the 3D this phone is still super fast and powerful. I personaly love to take pictures and i'm excited to see the 3D aspect but the specs are a killer alone, so cut it out with the damn 3D comments. those who're complaining eeither lost their upgrade or dont have an upgrade yet so misery loves company...Well keep your old jacked up phone while I have fun with this top of the line phone.

? :P
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
Can't believe I just noticed that the screen size dem's were slightly different compared to the Evo4G. lol

Looks like height is the same but side by side the width of the screen's make the Evo3D seem skinnier than the Evo4G.

Also surprised that with the resolution increased on the 3D, that they didn't choose to add another row of icons on the home screen's. You can tell in the side by side pic below that the spacing is much greater. Figure either make the icons bigger or add a row and even possible column in there.

Just looks too spaced out when you put them side by side.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
Evo 3d is actually taller
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
yeah i understand that but it looks no where near as much taller as it does skinnier. Hence seems we lose surface area on the screen itself overall some. I know with higher resolution that changes but if you see with the higher resolution they didn't add a row there which is shocking to me. Creates a lot of extra space on the screen thats not used. The phone itself is taller but the actual screen is taller only by a minuscule amount when compared to the width.

Guess thatll be the first thing ill be happy about once the Dev's get ahold of it and adjust it. Least I know the app drawer can be changed easily but the home screen should deff have another row on it in stock form.
[HTC EVO 3D] mattfmartin:
It's got the same amount of rows, it's just missing the widgets. You dont lose any surface area. Still 4.3' whatever way you stretch it.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
yes thats the gripe the same amount of rows as the Evo4G does. with the higher resolution the icons are much smaller, so in turn there is much more wasted space on the home screen. To understand what I'm talking about look at the space between the icons name and the rosie bar. the space is much greater on the 3D than the 4G. Hence wasted.

I'm not debating it being a 4.3 screen like the evo just the fact that when you look at them in that photo the actual screen itself on the 3D looks far more skinnier than the 4G, and the amount the 3D is taller doesn't seem it makes up for that at all. I understand the screen is supposed to be taller than the 4G's but it sure doesn't look like it is in the photo i attached.
[HTC EVO 3D] bradleyw801:
You can use a couple of things to achieve what you are looking for. A launcher like ADW, or even GO Launcher will allow you to put more icons in the rows and columns of both the home screen, as well as the app drawer.

That should do what you are looking for.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
very well understood. not the point of the statement/comment i made. Just surprised HTC would have the software/home screen laid out like that.
[HTC EVO 3D] p0rkguy:
They better have some sort of case that provides a good kickstand...
[HTC EVO 3D] clamknuckle:
The Pre and Evo were both released in June. I would guess this would be the same.

Which is stupid because the new iPhone is always released in June. I'd release in May and get some hype built up.
[HTC EVO 3D] dirkyd3rk:
I hope they turn up the heat on spreading 4G cause T-Mobile is turning up the heat to 40mb in a few cities right now. They still need to roll it out in more areas.

NO NO NO I MISSED THE LIVE STREAM!!! I'm still getting this bad boy though. Dual Leds and Dual Cameras. 1080p video recording, 3D, updated screen. The hell with a kickstand. I mean who really sits and watches a movie with the kickstand out?
[HTC EVO 3D] dirkyd3rk:
Right dude, I could make my homemade shaky porn in 3D now freaking sick LOL.
[HTC EVO 3D] m4rk0358:
So I'm assuming this phone is plastic like the EVO? Nothing's been mentioned about aluminum.
[HTC EVO 3D] clamknuckle:
Yeah so!

I think the evo view will be my first tablet!
[HTC EVO 3D] Sirchuk:
Meh, I'm not that impressed. Overall, I don't think the upgrades are worth paying the full price for since I already have an EVO. If I could finagle one on a new contract price, sure.

I'll bet that with the larger battery it will probably have the same battery life as the EVO. The only benefits I see are a faster CPU, even though the EVO is plenty fast I think, and a better screen. Lack of a kickstand sucks, I use mine all the time.

The EVO is all the phone I need. If I want more power and to play more, I'll use my Xoom =)
