There's a more than stable Sense 5 4.2.2 rom right in Original Development. I can't speak for everyone, but a few more weeks to wait won't be that bad and you have something awesome to tinker with in the meantime.

Ditto. I'll have to run the RUU tonight unfortunately. I've got the files pulled down. Looks like you do a IMG.zip through the bootloader then manually run the RUU on your desktop.

For those others who do have it please NAND backup!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RayTrue04:
And if you're selected do not share the file as the email strictly says it's confidential and intended only for the recipient of the email. Saw someone say something about share so just want to throw that in there. I had to give them my contact and personal info for this.. Let Mo and Venkata handle that.

Seem to be getting Error 158 but just got the email with the partial ROM going to try it now! Yes, I am yyue94 on twitter and I pledged not to share the rom:) Btw there isn't any instructions in bootloader do I have to format the SD card completely? how do i flash the partial rom?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Captain_Throwback:
These sound like questions you should be asking the contact person in the e-mail. I think the idea is for the people that want to be able to update to understand how to do so. So asking us doesn't really give HTC the feedback they need. I am already updated, of course ;).

I believe the GS3 & GS4 were getting update by the end of October last time I saw.

Doubt it'll beat out the GS3, but maybe they've been holding their cards close on this update....who knows. If they did get us an update they may win back a customer, but if the Nexus 5 drops before the update, then maybe not. Oh well. :cyclops:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] xHausx:
Well, hopefully they do follow through and they're planning on when and not if. It still may be good to remind them every once and awhile to make sure they don't forget. ;)
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Fifth313ment:
You guys are nuts, they are done supporting the EVO LTE. Why bother releasing this update if they were going to push out the next update soon. HTC is tanking and their company is barely running. They can;t afford to update all of these devices. Which is why they JUST fixed the MMS compression bug after a year and a half. The messages and tweets everyone has shown don't confirm anything and don't even suggest an update. Simply wishful thinking and assumptions. And you know what assume means? It makes an.... of me and you, lol.

I asked that exact question: https://twitter.com/Cpt_Throwback/status/386197493932769280

Let's see if i even get a response. When I asked [MENTION=2463754]HTCUSA[/MENTION] about the update I got no response at all.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] DarkFoxTails:
Well, I just called a little more than 10 mins ago. The representative on the phone was nice enough to check that it is still being worked on. Seeing how most of Europe and Asia has been updated with the One X and One X+(Evo 4G LTE is a modified One X with a kickstand and micro SD Slot as far as I have learned), we are prone to get it soon enough. He also did mention this is update season for them, so chances are if anything, they would have to get around it at this time. Everyone's guess is good as mine, but it will probably next month if not the end of the year. Also, figured I ask about a new HTC phone like the One, but with a micro SD Card Slot. Apparently, they aren't informed about that until 3 days prior to a release.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] jimmyg41:
Just to let you know the latest update from a few days ago fixed the MMS compression problem.

Why are there so many cry babies these days?? Grow up & get a life and stop complaining so much there are better things to worry about in this world than an update for your Android device! Sheeesh! Bashing Sprint & HTC on XDA won't help, if you don't like Sprint or HTC move around, get a new carrier or a device from a company other than HTC, it really is that simple. Oh but then again if your parents have you on their plan and are paying for your service I guess it really isn't that simple...LMAO!

All of it. We essentially got the update, just ahead of schedule to confirm the delivery process would work.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SimianJones:
No official ZOE

You folks may not be surprised, certainly not those that have pushed the trial, but the forthcoming Sense 5 update will not support the ZOE camera. There's probably a few knuckleheads like myself who are considering pushing the trial, but they might like to know that there will be no ZOE camera.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] SimianJones:
Wow. I look dumb, but I did take it straight from Mo.

Is that the unmodified stock ROM or did Captain Throwback update the camera? Thanks for the feedback.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] Sinistertensai:
No, no captain did not. I'll release the zoe mod when I've finished it completely.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Sin is working on "updating" the camera himself. Zoe was working for the 4.2.2 port. Shouldn't be much longer now.

Just take the update, then update TWRP with the version that Capt posted, and finally flash SuperSU in recovery. That what we all did.

I have to say this update is buttery smooth and I haven't ran into any bugs as of yet. Feels like I'm using the One when it had 4.3 actually. Had some issues updating but thanks to the HTC guys, they had me discard the original files and gave me a whole new ruu which combined everything into a one step process and that did the trick. For all you guys on the trial make sure you report any bugs (if found) through email and the excel sheet Jason handed you. I mentioned I would give feedback on Twitter and Mo didnt sound too thrilled about that and asked I use email only lol! On another note, it feels good to finally have batt % on this phone without an extra app or rooting and flashing a rom!
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RayTrue04:
This radio so far seems like it holds LTE much better than any others in the past. Not only that but it picks it up fast too! It's holding it's own vs a GS3, Note 2 and G2 rather well and seems to hold lower signals now. I'm not even in an officially launched market :D

Is multitasking improved on the 4.3 ROM?

I've been trying out the moto x, and it's been great going between Tapatalk, Chrome, and YouTube without anything having to reload. I'm not that impressed with the rest of the moto x, but I'd love that sort of multitasking on the EVO LTE.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] numel007:
I think this is more of an opinion. Better multitasking to you might be something else to us. Best way is to try it yourself. You'll have to wait a bit though while everything gets prepared for the official public release.

Also, compare the time running to the time off of the charger.

You'd have to uncheck the "Scanning always available" option in advanced WiFi settings for it to be completely off. Google uses it for location tracking. That is by design.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RayTrue04:
That is one of the issues. It breaks when a call comes in or any other thing that interrupts playback like taking a picture and so on. To fix either pull headphones out and plug back in or go to settings and click off/on Beats. The settings way is the best as unplugging stops playback, would've been nice if the Beats notification with the check on/off button would appear on the drop down like on the One.. Beats is a heck louder now though. My ear drums be ringing now but that's a good thing because I like my music loud. I'm actually going to fill out my excel sheet tonight to report the bugs because it's about that time I give this back to my sister. But overall a very good 4.3 update I must say! :beer:

---------- Post added at 11:08 AM ---------- Previous post was at 11:03 AM ----------

^This… They tout that feature as battery saving as opposed to using gps but I had way worse drainage when I first tried it on my Note when we got 4.3. Got 8 hours of usage with like 2 SOT, worst I ever got on that phone.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
Seems like that feature might save battery and time when scanning, but how often am I doing that? Not very...

Also, for those of you who use the stock music player, did you notice that the shuffle doesn't really shuffle? Somehow, it keeps on replaying the same songs in the same order.

When wearing earphones without mic and taking a call, call volume does not work. It's funny, I'm so used to bugs that I didn't think it was a big deal but then I thought... "wait this is a stock rom?" so... we'll see what happens with the official ota is out.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] markb629:
The 4.3 sense 5 unofficial does run great. It's super smooth and the bugs that are there aren't major just annoying. The beats bug that's been mentioned, the voicemail app not automatically downloading voicemails (have to manually call to listen to voicemails), a new one for me today was when on a call and another call came in the current call dropped on me. After this happened I tried a 3 way call and current call dropped again. The signal bar thing is just a personal annoyance to me, it seems to show the strength of data as it switches from 3G to 4G the bars change with it, till I make a call then they jump up to call strength or something. I know reading this typed out seems like a lot but they really are minor things. Everyday use has been zero problems and the only bug that needs to be worked around really is the voicemail one (long pressing 1 instead of tapping the app no biggie).

You were actually expecting a Kitkat rom from HTC for EVO? Why would you do that. As for 4.3, it is already here
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] :
This isn't my tweet, I took this photo from the EVO group I'm in on facebook. I know we aren't getting kitkat. I'm more angered by the lie we were told about receiving 4.3 in February as it seems that isn't going to happen now. The official 4.3 has not been released to the general public yet. I also know it is available here. I recently had to replace my EVO after the screen and system became unresponsive. I've been holding off of rooting again in hopes of receiving the update.

EVOlved human
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] AarSyl:
We are still in the second week of February. If you ask me, things seem to be on schedule, or maaaaaaybe a little late.

And why are you holding off from rooting? Will you not root the phone when it updates, anyway?
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] RayTrue04:
Any Sprint phone on 4.3 and up show bars for current data connection so that's not a bug and I guess you'll just have to get used to it. LG phones along with iPhones where the only phones to do this till 4.3 came along so now every device do it as well. Tried recreating the 3 way call bug but I'm not getting it and they are going through fine with no drops. As for the voicemail I'm not having that problem either and it's working fine.

Edit: What's really weird is that I connected my stereo Bluetooth headset to see if beats work with wireless headsets and since it did I tried to do the beats bug but I couldn't get it. Now I'm trying to get it with my wired headsets and beats is working fine now.. :what:
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] MFOsaka:
Once it is released, it's not going to be an update that will be OTA. It'll be in RUU form that you'd have to download and run from a PC. So you'd be able to do it then possibly without root. Who says that it won't be happening? It's February 12th with two weeks left in the month.

[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] StringTheory:
The voicemail app works, you probably have SMS enabled in Google Hangouts. Disable that in Hangouts and use the regular messaging app and your voicemails will start downloading. Hangouts sms interferes with downloading process of the voicemail app somehow. You can disable it in the SMS section of the Google Hangout settings.
[Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE] markb629:
Nope don't even have hangouts on the phone...it's actually working now since I've run the ##72786# dialer reset again. I've done it before but not sure on this flash or not. I've flashed a few times because of battery drain and various other things but it's working now so that was probably it. And for anyone having battery drain check your advanced Wi-Fi settings and uncheck scanning always available for location. It's suppose to save battery by allowing you to turn off your Wi-Fi so it's not scanning for networks but allows using it for your location, for me unchecking this improved battery life.
