[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] carlos64030:
If you ask me, I say this phone is overrated to be honest. This is coming from someone that has owned all 3 of the EVOs. The specs of the phone looks great on paper, but the phone just doesn't perform that well in the real world. Seems like there's more time spent trying to get the phone to run right instead of just enjoying it. HTC failed BIG TIME when they screwed-up the phone's ability to multitask properly. I've been a member of this site for over 6 years and have a very low post count since I've mainly lurked throughout the years. A large portion of my current post count is because of this EVO and trying to get it to run smoothly. This is my second one, btw.

Anytime you have to rely on a web site to fix multiple problems for things that a manufacturer should have made sure were working properly before selling to consumers equals a huge fail IMO. There's a large portion of people on these forums that don't mind spending all of their free time tinkering and fixing their phones, but for an average consumer that leads a busy lifestyle, do you really think they want that kind of hassle, especially if they're not tech savvy? HELL NO!!!

So what do you tell them when they see the S3 with LTE and the EVO LTE stuck on 3G all the time?

The EVO is exclusive to Sprint, they created the brand because the needed a big push to compete with the other service providers. They weren't just trying to out do Apple, never were. The Apple bashing was to help solidify the brand as a recognizable device easily capable of matching the top smartphone at the time. The biggest problem is that the EVO line is Sprint exclusive, its not underrated by any means
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] 00mred00:
Lol...I own both. I love both

Both will be old news within 2 months lol
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] maniakx:
I agree completely.

I also think the built in kickstand sets the EVO line apart from others . I watch a lot of netflix at work and see other peeps.using books to hold there phone up
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] om4:
I wish it was a bit beefier but its just as strong as the old kick stand and has the built in spring for extra support. I like that u can flip it any way I want and still prop it up
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Mathman85:
The original EVO is often referred to as legendary when it's discussed in articles, so to say the EVO is a small name in the industry is absurd. The original had a HUGE marketing push as the first 4G phone, and paired with its capabilities, it earned that reputation.

Yes. Because HTC's marketing sucks so badly that the company is struggling. And if they can't stay afloat, we may not get to continue enjoying the best phones on the market.

Honestly, I blame Leo Burnett - the company that made that HORRIFIC commercial for the EVO 4G LTE with everyone playing instruments on their phone (that nobody seems to remember anymore because it sucked so badly). What did they do, sit in a room and say "how can we show the world the most useless capabilities of one of the most advanced smartphones in the world?" For a company responsible for the Allstate Mayhem ads, I'd expect better. And better marketing would've gotten the phone talked about more broadly. Edit: Completely forgot to mention that Leo Burnett is also the ad agency of record for Samsung. When I was working there, the only Android options for company phones were Samsungs, as a result (hence why I had the Galaxy Nexus for a while).

To add insult to injury, it doesn't help exposure when every article I read says they don't even talk about Sprint as having LTE, because the network is so dismal. If you look at the EVO 4G LTE as a 3G phone, it's nothing more than nice hardware on a crappy network. (Disclaimer: I have 4G LTE - and WiMax, actually - where I live and along several spots on my train ride, so I'm happy with the network, but most aren't.)

Personally, I think HTC should step up and advertise their own phones, because clearly Sprint isn't putting weight behind HTC like they used to. I don't know a person in the world who'd pick up the EVO 4G LTE and Galaxy S3 (both on Sprint) and go with that cheap lump of plastic with the hideous iPhone-esque overlay over the premium looking and feeling EVO 4G LTE. And in the 2 minutes I helped a coworker with her GS3, I saw the thing freeze and stutter constantly, and I wasn't making it do any more processing than I put my EVO through on a regular basis.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] slowfncar:
If I didn't know **** about phones,I would.buy from the company that also makes TV's,computers,clocks,radios ect. Like Samsung or apple, to be honest even if.we had 4 gigs of ram and a faster CPU it still wouldn't make the evo line any more popular then Samsung except for the techie users who usually buy **** for the hardware and not the name.

---------- Post added at 08:43 PM ---------- Previous post was at 08:36 PM ----------

Sir,if you could root the device (takes 20 mins now days) you don't even have to be tech savy because there are one click roots and even one click s-off for older hboot devices if I'm not mistaken I can recommend the stock w/goodies rom. I have NO! Issues. Not with wifi/multitask/3g/battery/bugs not a single issue at all except the white flicker when opening the market. Even the gs3 has multitasking issues. I score a consistent 5300-5600 @ 1.5 and get 22hrs average medium use battery life. Oh and the Rom is quick and I mean fhsgdldbsm QUICK!

This device belongs in the hands of a techie,I will admit in stock form it is a PITA but since I have the option to root it clearly makes it a winner in my book!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] stevemoffler:
I have yet to root mine, I think its beast its snappy, amazing battery life, good looking, and full fills my everyday needs.

Cant wait til jb tho it will be just as awesome if not even better!!!

I've rooted every android phone I've owned besides this one and I don't think I will, I don't use WiFi tether anymore, and at 1.5ghz its as fast as I want it lol.

I think the lack of LTE has a lot to do why it's underrated
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jdrestless:
Don't think it's the hardware, HTC has released two devices that currently have LTE capability. Titan II and HOX both are working fine must be the network.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
Must be... I guess the other LTE sprint devices use a different network since they work fine connecting to LTE where available.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] super evo:
For what its worth, this is one of the best phones I have owned. Marketing of the phone has dropped off. Samsung just has alot of marketing resources also there quick action in updates to there devices is getting major hypes. HTC just needs to keep the phone updated and it will attract users.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] theoner1:
It's underrated because all the bashing I see that keep going on and on. It's fine i don't get butt hurt at all. I buy stuff the way I wanted. In my household we have devices of all different Manuafacturer, OS, type and size. My Evo work just the way I wanted , it connect to LTE network just fine IMO. I guess some people just love to keep going about how the Evo lte doesn't want to connect to LTE when LTE is present. SF bay area have like what 5% coverage and not even officially launch, my Evo connect to it along side my wife's iphone 5 just fine when there's LTE available. Matter of fact I went in sprint store and try to put all three phones to the test and guess what only one phone doesn't connect and it's not even the Evo or the Iphone, Thought I'd share that not every phone react the same exact way.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Mac_Gyver:
I'm with you there! As my contract was running out I had a hard time choosing at first between the two. But I really don't like the bluish hue of the GS3 and I had a good experience with the original EVO. I mean the 2GB of RAM is nice but I much rather have a better screen.

---------- Post added at 02:34 PM ---------- Previous post was at 01:44 PM ----------

Yeah, I bet this is the difference -- how much $$ Samsung has to pump into marketing.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Mac_Gyver:
Haha, yeah, that's the best part. I remember I kept reading how stupid HTC engineers were to put the charger port on the bottom of the LTE but then I looked at a joke post somewhere which was all serious about how to mod your EVO LTE to reverse the kickstand. The dude takes the phone, plugs in the USB, and then just puts in upside down. :silly:

---------- Post added at 09:24 PM ---------- Previous post was at 09:21 PM ----------

Well, not to diss XDA but if you try to browse the top phones, LTE does not come up. You have to search or view all phones.

Forgot to add... Leo Burnett is the agency or record for Sprint (as I mentioned, they made the horrendous EVO 4G LTE commercial that ran all of twice), AND Samsung.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] myamex:
I actually like Evo LTE more than One X.

but ya, it doesn't look as cool as the GS3.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] scoot0073:
I agree the lack of advertising and the fact that it's only on Sprints network is why the Lte doesn't see no love. I've been a HTC loyal fan since the Touch Pro Diamond days. I sometimes find myself wanting the GS3, only b/c all the hype and the advertising. These two things is what draws consumers to a certain device. I love my EVO LTE and happy with it.

I personally will never own another HTC phone... Sense has crippled this phone. It's good hardware but its no good if you get constant loading screens, and everything else just moves so slow.. especially pulling up text messages and contacts.. and mind you I clear my texts out every week and my contact list is not that extensive. This should not be happening on this phone, sense has awesome features its just sad that its not running smoother on awesome hardware.

I would never trade my HTC for a Samsung... HTC for life for me. Besides the radio issues I have had no problems. Plus how does a plastic gs3 look better than our EVO 4g LTE? I definately disagree. I love the look of my phone
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] digiblur:
I love the "look" of the 4g indicator more. I could care less what it looked like. I would use a pink fake diamond encrusted gs3 over an EVO LTE in an LTE area. And I can't stand pink or other crap on phones.

[HTC Sensation] alien44:
Hi :)

I'm writing because I'm confused :silly:

I don't know which series of sensation I have :confused:

When I check what symbol is underneath the battery, there is PG58130, and what I read on the google, this is series released for the U.S. T-mobile (4G). Except that this is no ordinary sensation, but Sensation XE (with red inserts, and BA logo on the back of the phone). So the question is it possible that the in my country (Poland) I bought the phone released for T-Mobile USA, and it's HTC Sensation XE 4G? Is that combination it possible? If so, should I flash rom for T-mobile?
[HTC Sensation] alien44:
Anybody?
[HTC Sensation] ganeshp:
technically speaking sensation = sensation 4g = sensation xe

so any rom should work for you IMHO :)

I don't really know if anyone has had a similar issue but I figured I'd try to at least not feel completely alone. Without fail, if I navigate to www.grantland.com on my phone it will "load" about halfway and then crash back to home. I've found the stock browser com.android.browser does this on some sites but obviously not all. I'm guessing that it is something that their website is attempting to do that the browser doesn't exactly like. It also happens on Dolphin HD. I've attempted to logcat the error, but either I'm not trying to capture the right information or it just doesn't want to give it to me.

I've tried "logcat WebCore:V *:S" "logcat browser:V *:S" and "logcat com.android.browser". I believe the first two are aiming to capture any javascript that is happening. At any rate the only information I could get is on the last version. I've posted that on pastebin here http://pastebin.com/rjgDHT4e. There is a longer version of the logcat, but this was about the only worthwhile information I could find.

I'm running AOKP Milestone 6 Build 5. It has also happened on CM9.1 R7 and R8

From what I've read it could be just a general bug in the android browser

I *hope* it happens to everyone else and not just me, but there's always the chance that I'm completely off the reservation and one step closer to breaking my phone.
[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] jeffsf:
Looks like it crashed in libIMGegl.so -- so, at least for me under Boat Browser it seems to be pretty low level.

It doesn't surprise me that most browsers behave the same as most reuse the sysyem-supplied rendering engines.

[Samsung Galaxy S (4G Model)] codealarms:
I kinda figured that on the browsers. Same thing with SMS apps. Basically just an add on to the base app for more functionality or options. I presume since it is fairly low level its just something I'll have to deal with unless I figure out a way to delve in to that. Experience in that area isn't high. Always looking to learn though.

I take absolutely no credit for this fix, and I apologise if it has already been posted or it's in the wrong section. Not being very proficient with ADB and command lines and tearing my hair out trying to find a fix for my TF100 I came across this little gem.

Open a terminal window, e.g. with Android Terminal Emulator from

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=jackpal.androidterm

Now, enter “su” to get root access. Superuser might ask you for authorization.

Then enter “echo boot | dd of=/dev/block/mmcblk0p3 bs=1 seek=0”

Reboot. Your device should now work normal again.
