Here is a chat that I started with Sprint and they just left me hanging:

Jessica: Thank you for visiting Sprint. What questions can I answer for you today?

You: The EVO 4G says that it is shipping with Android 2.3?? Is this true and if it is, why do I not have 2.3 on my EVO 4G?

Jessica: Please wait while a secure chat connection is established.

Jessica: I would be happy to help you about HTC EVO 4G smartphone.

Jessica: Let's move this chat and make it a window of its own. That way, you'll still see this web page while we chat. Please click 'Yes' to move it now.

Jessica: Thank you for moving the chat.

Jessica: HTC EVO 4G smartphone is available with 2.2 Android.

You: It's a high-quality mobile device – featuring Android™ 2.3 and the award-winning HTC Sense™ experience, and it's your personal portable HD media center with an HDMI output so you can share in HD

Jessica: It's still not available with Android 2.3.

You: Is your website wrong?

Jessica: One moment please.

You: You going to get this answered for me?

Thank you for chatting with us today!
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Back on topic the 2.3 will be sweet should help out battery life and give things a new feeling .
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
I am going to take the same approach. Stand by
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Nicely done man wonder where she went.
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
Seriously people, you are attacking a chat service person as to why you don't have 2.3 on your EVO because as of today it says it ships with it on there. Do you think A) they even have a clue or anything to do with that B) have a magic button to push to release the update to everyone who already has an Evo.

When Sprint pushes it out, I am sure you will be informed from XDA. Now let Sprint CS actually help people who have real issues with there phones!
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
If you don't care to know...then get out of this thread?
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Someone just got a answer from someone on sprint chat said.in a week we will get something hope its true .
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
No lol if we all bug them then maybe we will get results
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Wtf the new HTC Evo
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Ya that will clear up all rumors so have at it guys .
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
yea i was thinking the same thing
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
I'm getting the same bs lol
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Must be someone who doesn't know English happens all the time with sprint chat and calling for info on account . There is no way they would screw us like that lol a new evo wtf is he smoking .
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Ask him what hardware version he talking about ?
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
so it sounds like a big circle jerk to me
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
Hope not. I tried :/ We'll see lol
[EVO 4G General] ItsLasher:
http://androidandme.com/2011/04/pho...o-older-handsets-due-to-hardware-limitations/

No Sense 3.0 but don't mention anything else.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
Ok when they say new evo I beleave the new evos being sent to stores to be sold
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
Next time some one asks a sprint Rep, someone ask about a sense update!!!!!
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Lol wonder if he was talking about older hardware evos not compatible with the update and the newer ones which is the latest hardware dunno anything above 0004 .
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
Well find out soon...or not lol
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
Their not even giving full detail about the update alone...I doubt their going to go in detail about what its coming with...just sayin
[EVO 4G General] ItsLasher:
https://twitter.com/#!/htc/statuses/58287330590601216

This is for 3.0 anyways.
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
There's the answer about sense.
[EVO 4G General] ckoadiyn:
But we could get 2.x for sense :) besides we just need the new stiff for the kernels for the source so we can all use the 3.0 that our devs has made
[EVO 4G General] whatsleft4her:
Thats only for sense 3.0
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Now that would be stupid if they did such a thing its a OTA not a new evo phone. What the guy might of ment by new phone is if your buying a evo in a week it will already have the latest OTA installed on it.
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
im talking about sense 2.0 or higher, not 3.0 or anything
[EVO 4G General] whatsleft4her:
Im running misfits port of the evo shifts leak with sense 2.1 and its smooth and no issues running sense 2.1 yet
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
Not caring to know or harrasing clueless chat customer service reps are 2 different things. I could also tell you it should be out in a couple of days. That's what one would think if they are selling the newer ones with the new software.
[EVO 4G General] linkinx64:
they just removed Android 2.3 from the description :(

http://shop.sprint.com/mysprint/shop/phone_wall.jsp?INTNAV=ATG:HE:Phones
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
lol sprint's phones probably exploded lol
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Lol nice wonder why :rolleyes:
[EVO 4G General] brandon.pitts:
How convenient... Smh...
[EVO 4G General] linkinx64:
Probably, it was there ahead of time ;)
[EVO 4G General] Ep3n3wp:
I asked sprints facebook about the update to android 2.3 for our evo.. And they responded with...

Looks like we are sending the new evos with 2.3 update, and we are looking into updates for current evos

And that is right from the horses mouth...

:)

Good news: I just saved 500 hundred bucks on a new phone by switching to XxXViRuSXxX

(So easy, a noobie can do it)
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Say again its not harassing man just getting facts and questions answered . Lmao if you don't wanna know then please feel free to leave this beautiful thread. :rolleyes: ;) thanks :D
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
lol if they dont release the 2.3 update before the new evo are released i have a feeling this will get REAL ugly
[EVO 4G General] dangerruss:
Still says 2.3 in the detailed view. Hopefully this will drop soon and give us a fix for the novatec panel.
[EVO 4G General] brandon.pitts:
I know the dev's needed an updated kernel to fix the brightness issue what else can we possibly get from this update?
[EVO 4G General] dangerruss:
Engadget just picked thia topic up. Lets see of they can get some better info. http://m.engadget.com/default/artic...with-gingerbread/&category=classic&postPage=1
[EVO 4G General] BonkyMoon:
We might actually get some custom kernels that enable overclocking, undervolting, etc. Right now you can technically use the froyo kernels for that, but they break other stuff on gingerbread like the viewfinder for the camera.

edit: I mean that with an official release we'll also see the source, and that people can get to work on making all those delicious kernels.

14:20:17 : Thank you for contacting Sprint. My name is Rosie K..

14:20:36 : Rosie K.: Please let me know the detail of your issue/question.

14:20:48 : Josh: Hi. The sprint.com online store shows the HTC EVO 4G as shipping with Android version 2.3 correct?

14:21:32 : Rosie K.: Hello. Please allow me a few moments to check this for you.

14:23:48 : Rosie K.: I'm still researching that information for you. Thanks for your patience.

14:23:56 : Josh: Thank you

14:27:02 : Rosie K.: I apologize for delay.

14:27:17 : Rosie K.: Currently EVO is coming with Android 2.3.

14:27:47 : Josh: So if i order online right now, I will receive with 2.3 correct?

14:28:07 : Rosie K.: Correct.

14:28:25 : Josh: How about the 2 EVO's i already have on my account?

14:28:40 : Josh: When are those going to receive Android 2.3?

14:30:50 : Rosie K.: Let me check this for you.

14:30:56 : Josh: ok, thank you

14:33:53 : Rosie K.: I apologize for delay.

14:35:17 : Rosie K.: Currently Sprint is working to provide the Android 2.3 update to the phone which are purchased already, and Android 2.3 update will be available very quick. Once it will be available, you can download it through:

http://shop2.sprint.com/en/software_downloads/index.shtml?ECID=vanity:downloads

14:35:59 : Josh: Ok, and since they are already shipping with 2.3 when is this download going to be posted online for us to upgrade?

14:37:18 : Rosie K.: I apologize for inconvenience but the date is not available. Sprint will make 2.3 available as quick as possible.

14:37:41 : Josh: Ok, thank you for the information.
[EVO 4G General] CheesyNutz:
think its pretty ****ed up that they ship new evo's with 2.3 and have not released and OTA to update the current evo's
[EVO 4G General] brandon.pitts:
Thank you! I know that the brightness issue is the main concern for most people when I read through posts, so maybe if they get this thing rolling my reading time for the same issue may decrease LOL

I hope this will mean that the Sense 3.0 ROMS that the dev's are working to iron the issues out of will become smoother or is that more so an issue with us not having an official Sense 2.1 upgrade?
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
I agree there kind screwing us all with that bull sh&t .
[EVO 4G General] CruzECO13:
Sprint HTC EVO 4G now shipping with Gingerbread? (Update: mistakenly posted) :(
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
I don't buy it.
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
i doubt it was actually accidental!!!!
[EVO 4G General] TF1984:
EPIC FAIL!!!
[EVO 4G General] DroidHead225:
That's classic sprint

sent from my evo, *****!
[EVO 4G General] CruzECO13:
HTC EVO™ 4G Sprint Store Link

Everything is back to 2.2!
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
Good job people, I just got word from my Sprint contact that they are removing Gingerbread from the new Evo's to stop all the complaints from current owners.

Way to ruin it for the new EVO owners!
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
But they will be doing a OTA soon :D
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
lol, and that based on Sprint chat rep. You have a better chance asking your grocery store clerk when he thinks it will come out.
[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
Yeah thats what it was. Because of all the complaints, if there was any update coming or not...they did not pull it because of the complaints lol, they just removed the tag from the image on their site. Nobody knows anything yet.

Stop whining
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Whatever you say there lil man. Your just sore cause they took the thing down so keep on hatin if you would like leave the thread.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Lol it's people like us that get the facts straight and questions answered so no sir it wasn't our fault. :rolleyes: we will be pointing the finger at you ;) J\K
[EVO 4G General] SteveGrandRapids:
That's funny . . . the link she gave you takes you to HTC Evo v2.0.35 . . . . wtf . .
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
You peope are funny. I obviously know they didn't pull it because of the little whiners here.

Besides, isn't eveyone here already running Gingergerbred on there EVO's already and if not, won't everyone here be on the EVO 3d in a few weeks anyway?
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
There are no whiners here just you :D . Evo 3d will probably be sold out but there will be plenty of evo user's still.
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
Sold out, stop being cheap and go pre order one for $50! Then we will see how much you care about Gingerbread with Sense 1.0.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Wow you really are being a crazy over that go start your own thread about the Evo 3d and evo users.

This thread is called Shipping 2.3 your posting in the wrong thread bud drop out anytime.
[EVO 4G General] mmegalodon:
What is isn't funny?

You using Comic Sans.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
lol nicely done
[EVO 4G General] jtadeo:
hopefully it's the latest version of GB
[EVO 4G General] dangerruss:
Yes cause every evo owner wants to go blow 500 on the latest and greatest. No evo owner even has a credit yet. The evo is less than a year old. Stop trolling.
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Thanks for pointing that out dude wouldn't stop :D
[EVO 4G General] jtadeo:
I agree

The EVO3D seems like a gimick to me... I'm waiting for something better
[EVO 4G General] HipKat:
Best.Post.Today!
[EVO 4G General] rombold:
Its just like the elocity A7 tablet I own they said honeycomb wasnt a possibility and now we have a beta on it. As long as there's good devs we will have just about what ever there is offered
[EVO 4G General] ajd2416:
As am I. The whole 3D pics and vid is just a lil too much for me. My evo is easily the best phone ever but come on.......
[EVO 4G General] phatmanxxl:
Ive had my credit sinch march.
[EVO 4G General] tx_dbs_tx:
I feel confident the 2.3 update will roll out soon. Let's just hope it's before the EVO 3D releases! Speaking of EVO 3D, I'm gonna save my upgrade for the Samsung Galaxy S 2 when it finally comes to Sprint! Until then, my current King EVO 4G is serving me very well.
[EVO 4G General] eman3316@optonline.net:
Every EVO owner who bought there EVO when it was released will be able to upgrade to the 3d at the discounted price since everyone would have been a premier customer with the EVO and Sprint is allowing the 1 time upgrade for those bumped down to silver status.

So go trade in or sell your EVO and buy a 3d for $100 or less. I wouldn't call that trolling, I would call that getting the latest and greatest for a pretty cheap price!
[EVO 4G General] DroidHead225:
YEA right

sent from my evo, *****!
[EVO 4G General] customhdrider:
Guys,,someone didn't read too well cause all sites for evo says the same as it did this morning,noon and now,,ships with Android 2.2,,same as we already got,,inside info is the 3d drops on the 3rd,we get 2.3 by the 14th,,came from a 17yrs employee with sprint,,
[EVO 4G General] tx_dbs_tx:
Sound good to me. Perhaps your inside Sprint person is a janitor who was hiding in the closet during a private conference and overheard the news?

JK :)
[EVO 4G General] :
Sorry the janitors are the ones who make the release and important decisions. Didn't anyone tell you this ;P
[EVO 4G General] tallguywes:
I bet HTC / sprint is only going to OTA a gingerbread update with no sense update; I have a feeling they are going to treat the evo similarly as they did with the hero...quick and crappy update to aosp source and nothing else.

Why should they care? Both companies want us to upgrade ASAP; they don't make money on software upgrades.
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
+1 on that. Unfortunately :(
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
I have faith that it will be upgraded the evo is sprints flagship even tho 3d is coming out its encrypted. So a lot of people that wanted it for rooting might wait.

So it might not have high sales but the evo is only a year old . It will get upgrades. This thing is better than any phone sprint has at the moment .
[EVO 4G General] robbyyyyyyy:
cant wait for gingerbread, the only thing i wish android was more like apple was in terms of rolling out updates... hopefully we get sense 2.0 soon also
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
You're wrong, I have a 150 credit....bought my evo on ebay....my last sprint upgrade was the hero....so yeah, I intend on getting it at upgrade pricing....

.........at 8 am today someone poisons the coffee....do not drink the coffee. More instructions will follow.

[EVO 4G General] dean_fx:
I for one will not be downgrading to the EVO 3D.
[EVO 4G General] Vandelay007:
Well, you have that right brother! Im not gonna argue w your rights that I fight to protect

Ya it will only be a matter of time before someone with determination and gobs of free time figures it out. They said the xbox 360 and ps3 couldn't be hacked.
[EVO 4G General] ArmyAdams:
....I would circle June 8th on your calendar.
[EVO 4G General] :
As for updates to the evo. Would sprint want a better experience. Do they want you to see oh hey this phone has ginger let's get this phone instead of the new evo 3d that is supposed to replace it. Simple fact would they lower the evo price which would have the new ginger, or do they want you to spend more money on a different phone that has ginger and better sense.

A company is out to make money.
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
how do you know??
[EVO 4G General] tgruendler:
I circled May 21st and nothing happened, why June 8th?
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
basically, the way this is shaking out is this:

we dont know when the 2.3 update is going to be released

we can only hope that it will include an update version of Sense (2.0 or higher, but not 3.0 duhhhh)

but really, if it doesnt have an updated version of Sense, what are we making a big deal about?? its not like 2.3 is going to bring anything to the table really if we dont get the new Sense.....

so stop getting your hopes up people, time will tell ALL!!!!!!

i mean, the end of Q2 is a couple weeks away, and that is when they promised it would be in by unless there is a setback.....

so just chill out people, and go flash some other ROM in the meantime
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
There isn't much of anything new to flash CM7 is still in beta mode. Sense roms dried up. Waiting on Elite 4 to drop . Hope there is more out roms coming after the OTA.
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
i know, i feel your pain...... and the sense ROMs are no good for me cause i have a novatech screen :'( and i can't purposely kill my battery every day :(

#&$^(*@#&$^(#@*$^@#$*#@&^$(*@#&^$(!&^@%#*&%@!$ HTC AND SPRINT AND MY STUPID #&$^(*@#$ NOVATECH SCREEN!!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
I have no idea what my screen is brand new retail 0004 evo? Any idea.
[EVO 4G General] bjaxon:
I am another Evo customer who is completely content with the Devs work on getting gingerbread and other fancy stuff onto my phone.

The only upside I see about an official 2.3 Sense would hopefully be a new set of roms for us to flash. That is part of what this site is about.

As to the Evo3D, I have no interest in the whole 3D revolution. Its gonna take a lot to get me away from my Evo.

"Donate to those who spend their time making our phones better"
[EVO 4G General] MrDrumngun:
I read on engadget that the 2.3 post was a huge typo and that the evo would not be getting 2.3 anytime soon. I find that very hard to believe considering they had it posted on several places on their website. Oh well I have had 2.3.3 for a while now thanks to CM7!
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
no way to really tell until you flash one of the sense roms and you cant adjust your brightness no matter what you do!!!

i think i might buy a new screen/digitizer and replace my current one, hopefuly that one will be better!!!
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
My brightness works like a champ on sense asop and gingerbread.
[EVO 4G General] JGW310:
how does it work with this?? http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=1071547

if it works with that, then you have an Epson screen, and you are a lucky fellow!!!!! if it doesnt, you are like me and have a novatech screen
[EVO 4G General] BonkyMoon:
You don't actually have to do that to find out which screen type you have. Here's a post from a while back (which references an even older post) that explains how to find out which screen is on your phone.

http://xdaforums.com/showpost.php?p=12506189&postcount=13
[EVO 4G General] dangerruss:
So by your logic everyone who owns an evo bought it on ebay and didn't use a credit or open a new line...
[EVO 4G General] ArmyAdams:
I work for Sprint in a position that needs to know those things in advance. To prepare staffing in cal centers. I'll leave it at that for now. :-)
[EVO 4G General] GrimReaper24:
Oh really lol you willing to throw some money down on that date lmao.

Found out I have a nova screen found it in ADB I have no issue's using it with sense roms.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mafs:
Hey guys,

I was wondering what the difference between GSM and UMTS is, according to the settings of the LG Optimus 2X I can select GMS or UMTS or both.

Couldn't find the answer anywhere so I'm asking it here.

How do you guys have the settings set?

Using T-mobile btw (Netherlands).

Thanks in advantage :)
[LG Optimus 2x] acid_master:
Hi,

I think gsm mode is called as 2G, umts as 3/3.5G ... 2G mode is save your battery but the data traffic will be slower. You can switch between them in settings/wireless settings/mobile networks/ and check or uncheck the only 2G network (or something similar, I've tried to translate the menu names from Hungarian). However, you can find a simple app in the Market to do it easier:

2G-3G OnOff (CurveFish)
[LG Optimus 2x] kopchev:
Yes, 2G mode saves battery and offers slower download speeds. You can reach decent speed with EDGE @ 20-25-30 k/s. So If you don't need the speed of 3G, you can set the phone to GSM only mode.

On the other hand with 3.5G you can reach very good speeds (800k/s here in Bulgaria), but it drains the battery faster, even there are no active transfers.
[LG Optimus 2x] Mafs:
So basically what you are both telling me is, just put the phone on GSM/UMTS (automode). Because I often use 3G/HSDPA.
[LG Optimus 2x] acid_master:
Definitely!
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] AlbinoAsian:
Hi guys,

I don't usually pair my PC and Aria. The truth is the last time I did was when I was running a stock HTC Sense Rom, and had all the HTC Sync crap installed. Then my win7 laptop picked up the phone no probs and presented me with all the different bluetooth services.

I'd like to pair it again but this time I'm a fresh install of win7 that has never had HTC software installed and the Aria is running CM7 nightly82. When I try to pair it the Win7 system sees the device. Then the Aria prompts me for the password but doesn't appear to pair or doesn't identify the device 100% correctly, and doesn't have the drivers.

Do I have to install the HTC Sync software or is there some other way?

Much thanks
[HTC Aria Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Theonew:
I would suggest installing the HTC Sync software to get the drivers, then try pairing again.
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 3Shirts:
There are a few gym and workout apps but I can't find any that seem to describe what I want and since the market now only has a 15 minute trial, it's not enough to check the non-free ones out.

Basically I want to be able to put in a few different routines I have, each with a variety of cardio exercises, weights and stretching and then set the reps and weight etc.

Each time I go I'd like to be able to pick which routine I did then have the app, over time, suggest changes. For example, if I've done 2x10 reps of 40kg bench presses a few times, it will suggest I put the weight up on that. Or when I've run 10 minutes on the treadmill at 10kph a few times, it might suggest upping the time or speed etc.

Anything out there that can do this kind of thing?
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] demo23019:
idk jefit pro

has free version and is good but pro much better
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] 3Shirts:
I tried the free one and it does seem ok but doesn't do any kind of advising. That's what I'm really after
[Nexus S Themes and Apps] gymfreak4eva:
Gymprovise

Gymprovise is what you need. It is the best! No other gym/bodybuilding app comes close.

-Looks awesome. Beautiful, even. Other workout apps are butt ugly by comparison.

-UI is intuitive, clean, smooth, and most importantly, FAST. Doesn't need to connect to internet while you are tracking.

-Big database of exercises. Got all the usual suspects. Pictures too which are top notch. You can create your own too.

-You can plan and track routines with strength, cardio and stretching, and then view your

-Got weight and body measurement tracking as well

-Does not have social rubbish built in which IMO is just a freaking distraction from the Workout - although I think you can share completed Workouts to FB etc

Been using it for over 6 months and I have not looked back.

JEFIT is completely overrated. Steer clear. You'll be pulling your hair out trying to get it to do what you want.
