First post, but long time lurker here, but I just wantd to share this chat I had online with a Sprint rep (i know, take it with a grain of salt), sorry if something like this has been posted already.

11:47:27 PM : Ronald D.: I have checked that you are eligible to upgrade your phone at online price on all your lines.

11:48:07 PM : Ronald D.: There is no certain date to use this discount on your account, you can use any time.

11:48:23 PM : HERMANN: great. Any idea on the release date of Evo 3D?

11:49:08 PM : Ronald D.: The launch date and pricing of the devices is not yet available.

11:49:23 PM : Ronald D.: On 5/20, pre-registration begins for customers wanting EVO 3D or EVO View 4G tablet at any participating Sprint Store with the purchase of a $50 Sprint gift card.

11:49:33 PM : Ronald D.: Customers who pre-order will have their name added to the Device Wait List and be contacted to set up an appointment to complete their purchase when the devices launch.

11:49:56 PM : HERMANN: How about online? Would I still get those discounts in a store?

11:50:23 PM : Ronald D.: Yes, you can purchase the phone at online price from anywhere.

11:50:43 PM : Ronald D.: You can purchase at online price from Sprint store also.

11:50:55 PM : HERMANN: Thank you

11:51:08 PM : Ronald D.: My goal is to ensure the issues that prompted you to chat today are fully resolved. Did I address all the reasons for your chat today?

11:51:16 PM : HERMANN: yes you have. Thank you

Again, my apologies if this has been posted about tommorrow, cause I know Radio Shack, and Best Buy have pre-orders, but this is the first I have heard of it directly from Sprint.

It's great to be part of these forums.

Got a release notice email from Sprint on 4/26.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
I believe the Nexus S was announced 2 weeks in advance of the release date. Hopefully we hear something about the 3D this weekend.

On another note, OP, look what you started.

And it's awesome. I may return it for the 3D if it comes out before the 11th, when my 30 days is up.

@acrostar: Sprint in some areas started taking preorders last weekend: http://www.goodandevo.net/2011/05/sprint-quietly-taking-htc-evo-3d-preorders.html

Interesting that the rep said 5/20, though, as I've heard from a few people that that's when the official release date is going to be announced. Considering that's today, I guess it won't be long before we find out if it's true!
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Okay. What I believe is that the phones release date will be announced today or tomorrow. The Nexus S 4g was announced exactly two weeks before its release. So, if the June 4th date is true then they should announce it this Saturday.

Who better to release this phone then God when he makes his returning. Hahaha. Judgment Day = Evo 3D.

[HTC EVO 3D] Faluzure:
I actually got a $200 gift card from Sprint for Christmas. They exist, but there is fine print on those.

I'm not sure if the policy has changed, but at the time of usage, the gift cards can only be sold by and used by corporate-owned Sprint stores. I wrote a huge complaint to Sprint about how the original purchaser and me (the one who redeemed) had no knowing of the fine print and how I wasted 2 hours of my time (as well as the rep's).

Basically what happened was, my fiance bought me the card from a corp Sprint store. I took it to the nearest Sprint store by my house. I got the HTC Hero, they activated it and set it up for me. Then when it came time to pay, I handed him the card. He tried to use it, but couldn't. He called his manager, who then said to call Sprint corp. Sprint corp told him that only the official stores (not 3rd party) could use them. He had to cancel the activations and reactive my old phone. I was in that store for probably 2 hours going through the whole ordeal.

At the time, I didn't even know there was a difference between a 3rd-party Sprint store and a corporate owned Sprint store. Lesson learned.

Check this out from Radioshack.

http://www.gforgames.com/gadgets/ne...d-silent-preorder-campaign-release-date-9096/

Looks like youll get $100 toward the EVO 3D if you trade in your EVO. Also the Green Hornet comes preloaded.
[HTC EVO 3D] piry525:
Does that mean $100 plus what you get for your trade in?
[HTC EVO 3D] DeathBySnuggles:
My radio shack told me $150 - $175 for trading in my evo.
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Mine said $179 so long as I put a stock rom back on it.
[HTC EVO 3D] themuffinman:
And what did your email say?
[HTC EVO 3D] Nrbelex:
Official PRe-Order now Availalable

Spoke to a Sprint corporate store today, and they've been told they can now start doing pre-orders... though it's pretty hush-hush. And like Best Buy and RadioShack, you need to get a $50 gift card.

But still, seeing as Sprint corporate stores are actually Sprint, that's a really great sign it's coming very soon.

And yes, I was first on the list. :)
[HTC EVO 3D] st0921:
Did evo 3d even get FCC Aapproval? I couldn't find any info on this. On the nexus release, it got FCC approval on 4/11, announced by Sprint on 4/26, released on 5/8... approximately 2 weeks apart each point. does that mean we have to wait for at least 1 month from now?
[HTC EVO 3D] user7618:
Hmm, now that you mention it, I haven't seen anything about FCC approval, either. That combined with Sprint/HTC saying Summer 2011, and the first day of summer is June 21st, it would not surprise me to see a late June, early July release. :(

Sent from my CDMA Hero. I got some hot Ginger-on-Hero action here!
[HTC EVO 3D] ldominguez1986:
Damn, your right. I haven't seen an fcc approval. Could it possibly be done under wraps?
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I would imagine that the slightest change in electronics of a device would mandate FCC approval as a different device which would keep "platform-base" devices from being able to keep being an "fcc-approval-base"...I can easily find evidence of the HTC Sensation getting FCC approval, but, there are a few significant differences....but even more significant similarities between the two....

but, otherwise, good point.....hmmmmm....
[HTC EVO 3D] ldominguez1986:
Now I know starting to get worried about the release date
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
I wouldn't. FCC approval happens so early in the process that there must be something we don't quite understand about it....marketing material doesn't exist (except "inner circle" industry stuff for partners, etc) until FCC approval happens, if not significantly later....def not preorders, silent or not. I'm sticking with June 3rd. 5th if Sprint decides to change their release day, which I doubt.
[HTC EVO 3D] st0921:
FYI evo got FCC cleared on 5/10 last year then released on 6/4. Bummer. 3D release might be really not as soon as I was expecting...
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
EVO4G was filed 2/10, certified 4/10, published some time in 5/10
[HTC EVO 3D] ldominguez1986:
is it possible that it already happened?
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
Very possible...no...likely...no no...It is very likely that it has already happened.
[HTC EVO 3D] ldominguez1986:
doesn't this stuff usually leak. Like the sensation leaked out
[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
It's a matter of public record, but, I defy you to sift through every single thing the FCC does on a day-to-day basis.....and that doesn't even take into consideration whatever their test-to-publish lag, whatever that may be....we would likely hear about it from HTC or Sprint first...and at that point it's at their discretion....and FCC approval isn't a terribly compelling marketing device for most folk.
[HTC EVO 3D] user7618:
Nothing on the fcc site about the 3d. Cha cha, sensation, wildfire s, but no 3d. I had a link up here, but it was crap and I closed my browser.

Edit: ok, got it lined out.

https://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/oetcf/eas/

click "authorization search" under reports on the left hand side. Enter the grantee code for htc in the top box. It's NM8. Then choose the date range you want to search about half way down, and search.

Definitely nothing on PG86100 on the FCC site.

[HTC EVO 3D] daneurysm:
then perhaps that is the crux of this entire situation we are in....that would suck. I have heard there are even more exciting things coming within 1-2 months from sprint, but haven't the patience to wait for....but if this Evo3D gets pushed until July...well....I'll wait. I'm still sore with HTC over their reaction to the 30FPS fiasco and all it would take would be one bull**** delay for me to jump their ship to something and/or somewhere else. Their responses were, simply put, insulting.
[HTC EVO 3D] ldominguez1986:
so that means the early june is pretty much shot
[HTC EVO 3D] eman3316@optonline.net:
You guys understand that Sprint never gave an estimated release date. All the dates that have been posted have been made up by everyone here. It's not like Sprint is delaying anything. They have done no wrong here.

Think about it, we have devs that cook up Roms that refuse to give ETA's and everyone knows not to ask. HTC and Sprint are trying to put together a whole new device and everyone freaks out because they won't give a date yet.

Maybe the phone is not ready so why would they offer a date!

If the summer ends and we still don't have the EVO 3d and don't hear anything from Sprint, then we will have a reason to be mad. Until then Sprint and HTC have done nothing wrong.
[HTC EVO 3D] user7618:
I don't believe anyone said anything about a delay anywhere in this thread. People are working off an assumption, a faulty one, it seems, but I don't think anyone here is mad at the "delay". We just want our killer phones. :D

[HTC EVO 3D] ldominguez1986:
No one is freaking out. That's what xda is about being able to talk about speculation and ask questions besides all the dev stuff. We are all hoping to get our hands on this killer phone sooner than later. I don't know where you got the idea that people are pist at sprint and htc. You are just jumping to conclusions.
[HTC EVO 3D] Ruki_Uki:
Would a new phone really be released on a Saturday?
[HTC EVO 3D] user7618:
Why not? Means more people can get it on day one as a lot work during the week. Not to mention that at a vast majority of places Fridays are payday, so people would have money. I don't see why they don't release more on the weekends.

If this isn't in the assumed June release, then I may hold out for the galaxy s 2. But. I prefer HTC over Samsung.

From my Gingerbread Hero.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
So then why hold out for the sgs2?

Tapa tapa tapa
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
If the Evo isn't released in early June I will probably wait. I've waited on my upgrade for 9 months, so I don't mind. The battery on the 3D is about to suck.

From my Gingerbread Hero.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
The talk time and standby time is longer on the 3d than it is in the evo 4g

[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
And I am sure once we get it rooted we can extend that even more.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
All good points.

From my Gingerbread Hero.
[HTC EVO 3D] Xencer:
I'm sure the GS2 is a beast, but one of the main selling points for me is the 3d, I love 3d ****!
[HTC EVO 3D] fmedina2:
Right. The GS2 is very good looking, but other than the screen, I don't see anything better than the EVO 3D. I hate Samsung's UI.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
I understand why you say you don't like Touchwiz. But I didnt like it either for a while until my brother got the Epic. It's not as bad as people make it out to be. Yes, I prefer Sense or Vanilla but with the sg2, I would understand taking a "hit" with Touchwiz. The specs are great, the performance is top of the line, and the screen is gorgeous.

With all the people saying Samsung is a bad company, I think most are wrong or uninformed. Yes, the epic received Froyo a bit later. Yet the Og Evo doesn't have Gingerbread yet, and its apparently the Flagship phone for Sprint.

Before someone links me the newly posted, Evo getting Gingerbread article, the Epic also has leaked Gingerbread builds. And a new update says it was Sprints mistake.

From my Gingerbread Hero.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
I don't necessarily think Samsung is a bad company as they make fantastic TVs and other home entertainment products. However, the last two experiences I have had with Samsung phones (either directly or through the experience of my wife), have been terrible. Namely, the Moment and the Epic 4G. It's not the delayed Android updates that concerns me but rather the stability of the software and hardware. Both phones have had radio issues and my wife's epic still has a hard time with GPS and WiFi at times. In addition, Samsung pulled 1 or 2 official updates due to bugs and instability, even the final Froyo update they released is ****. Samsung needs to up their game in the quality control department for their mobile phones.

My EVO is not without its flaws. In fact, I have the small crack near the power button and a scarce amount of light leakage under the screen but neither of these issues inhibits my effective use of the phone on a daily basis. I cannot say the same for either the Epic or the Moment as they both had/have issues that interfere with daily use.

I don't want to put up with anymore of the usual Samsung BS simply to have a phone with a higher contrast screen. When Samsung proves that they have changed their ways, I will reconsider their mobile phones. I feel the same way about Audi's. They make beautiful cars with excellent performance and advanced technology, however, I cannot deal with stuff constantly breaking and poor reliability. Thus, much like with Samsung, I will not again consider an Audi until they can offer the same level of reliability as their closest competitors, namely BMW and Mercedes.
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:
Understandable. I think peoples experiences are personal. My brother got the Epic on release day and hasn't had one issue yet.

From my Gingerbread Hero.
[HTC EVO 3D] mlin:
I guess so, my wife is on her second Epic and its the same old **** as it was on the first.
[HTC EVO 3D] rrsweet:
oh I don't think The EPIC getting GB was all Samsung fault. I fully blame sprint equally. But there builds just seem so rushed. The moment for example great phone. However Samsung for got to put Multi touch in to keep it a relevant phone. OR Data lock ups. Gps was PATHETIC. It made the HERO look like the right phone to have. they were both midrange but the HERO was a much better build. Just like how I see the GS2 being, Concept Great . But really you are putting a dual 1 Ghz processor in it? Why hold back? Because when the 3D isn't running 3D it'll be a better smoother phone.

It's basically the Evo a year later and a little more polished. But then again isn't that the EVo 3D too? only more powerful?

Anyways back to release date speculation. I say Dec 21st 2015 for the EVO 3D. if it comes out earlier I guess I will be pleased. :D
[HTC EVO 3D] Nsandhu23:

Not right this moment no. In order to get a Q&A section we have to have either over 10,000 posts or 1000 topics in the general section.

[EVO 4G Accessories] Dreddge:
So I have bought 2 of these now. I love how they look. However, the first one, I had about 6 months, and one of the corner tabs broke off...I thought, ok...maybe I dropped it or something, so I bought a second one. After 3 months, the very same corner broke off. I went ahead and bought a commuter even though i don't particularly care for OtterBox...I filled out my warranty claim form today, but from what I read Seidio is a real pain in the ass to deal with on warranty stuff.

Anyone else had the same issue?
[EVO 4G Accessories] GrimReaper24:
There a good company but charge to much for there things. I'm using a trident Kraken case loving it waiting on them to build a holster for it. Leather case for now for the thing not bulky like ballastic you can still use your kickstand.

Fixed the issue with the case when you use the flash for a pic it would give you a blue haze on pics due to the camera port cover all you need to do is trim the plastic to it works like a champ. You can also use ur original screen protector with it.

There customer service is great fast response and will send you a replacement at no charge if you mess something up such as the camera port cover. Good company .

I am sticking with then for protection on my phone.
[EVO 4G Accessories] SouthernEvo:
I can say this much on a semi related topic . I bought the PT branded Seidio innocase and holster from Bestbuy recently to replace a worn out one I had before . The fit was terrible and I think they went with even thinner plastic cuz this thing litterally flexed in my hand . It was loose on the phone , flimsy and just plain out right sucked . I ended up getting a regular black tpu/rubber case . Cut the power and volume buttons out of the case and havent looked back . I cut the buttons out of the case mainly due to the fact I like using the buttons through the case not the case using the buttons .

im stumped.

All i want to do is move over a video and some music files from my pc to my Transformer tablet using the USB charging cable. My pc is running XP.

I dont have dock/keyboard or an sd card. Just my tablet. I figure i could do this with the usb charging cable. My tablet should show up as a mass storage drive on the pc right?

went to the site to install drivers. Asus sync works, so does my Splashtop remote. I also downloaded a zip file called "ASUS Android USB drivers for windows" and a RAR file called "pc suite_v1_0_18".

asus usb driver i got some MTP error

pc suite i got error "application failed to initalize properly (0xc0000135)

I figure this would be simple. I figure "Pc Suite" should help me move files? I dont know what it is since it wont install. or maybe i could use splashtop? I really dont know.lol All i want to do is move over some files through the usb cable. 15+ experience with computers and I'm embarresed asking all this.:(
