any idea on this, im desparate for this phone
[EVO 4G General] pa49:
Well it's a CDMA phone so let's hope it never finds it's way to the UK!

I'm currently in the US for 3 months and my partner has just picked up the EVO and I have the HD2 (UK model using it here on t-mobile US edge data system) and the device is good, but, having "played" with it for a good few hours there are serious shortcomings with the Android OS (and that's compared to the Winmo 6.5.X on my HD2, YIKES!).

There is a tackyness compared to the solid feel of the HD2. Battery can drain before your eyes (don't know why that is as the unit is 1500mAh). Tried for 2 hours to sync with HTC's PC Suite, but, couldn't get it to work (and I'm no novice! But, I'll get the bXggXr to work). Micro SD slot under the battery. Yes I said UNDER the battery so no card changes on the fly! It's thicker than the HD2. Etc, etc.

I didn't mean this to be a review, but, I'll keep my HD2 for now.

The killer is that it's CDMA.

This phone is junk when you finish with it. It can't be recyled or unlocked for use on other carriers. It's becomes a very expensive piece of waste matter! Oh and the cost $299 with a $100 mail in rebate on a 24 month contract at $110/month (that's 135 pounds after rebate and 75 pounds a month so you pay 1935 pounds in total over the 2 years!!

My Hd2 cost me 10 pounds and 41 a month over 12 months with mobile broadband included on an upgrade.

BTW the telecoms industry here in the US is nothing short of a joke with consumers being ripped of at every opportunity. The problem being that the market is very immature and the consumers don't know any different so they go along with it.

If the US carriers had to compete in Europe then at least 50% would go under very quickly. We don't know how lucky we are.

Nokia doesn't even have a smartphone in the marketplace here!!!!!!!!!!!
[EVO 4G General] Mecha2142:
Tackyness? The Evo is built like a tank, and weighs just as much as one. The only thing you could consider 'tacky' is the fact that the battery cover gives a little when you push on it. I've never held an HD2, personally, but I do know that the Evo is ridiculously solid, or at least mine is.

Battery life all depends on how you use it. If you keep all of the radios on with maximum screen brightness with all of the apps running, you're obviously going to get some poor battery life. However, there are people who have kept their phone off the charger for over sixty hours without dying.

The Evo isn't the only phone with a microSD card under the battery; HTC did this because the phone is so tightly packed.

Some people like having a thicker phone. I personally enjoy it. As for the etc, etc, I can't imagine what that's referring to.

Even if you don't use it as a phone, the Evo is still an outstanding media player. With Wifi connectivity, the Android marketplace, and a 4.3 inch screen, it beats most portable media players out there.

The cost is $299 with a mail in rebate if you order it from Sprint. Every other store sells the phone for $199 without any rebates involved.

$110 a month? Only if you need the Hotspot functionality, which is easily duplicated by other apps in the marketplace. You don't NEED to pay those $30 a month. Besides, the Overdrive costs $60 a month to use as a hotspot, and that's it's ONLY function. The Evo is only $80 a month to own, which is still much less expensive than an iPhone.
[EVO 4G General] Sirchuk:
To answer the OP's question.

No, you cannot change sims. No this phone cannot be used overseas. And No, nothing like it has been announced for Europe as of yet. Sorry for the bad news!

As for the above review, I completely disagree. I love the EVO and I paid the full $450 price tag (not eligible for upgrade/new contract.)

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, no matter how wrong it is.

Oh, and $110 a month is probably unlimited data, calling, and texting right?

I pay $65, 450 minutes, unlimited calling to other mobile phones, unlimited data, unlimited texting, and wifi hotspot thanks to rooting. Hell of a good deal to me! I use about 20 minutes a month (non-cell phone calls.)

I also get about 24 hours on a single charge with moderate use. I swap my battery for a fresh one each day at about 20-30%. So yeah, bad battery life? Sure, turn everything to on and to max and play a video for 6 hours and it'll be dead, but I don't do that and get over a days usage.

I'm guessing you work in the industry or very close to it!

In any case my comments, which are of course purely subjective, were for the benefit of the OP who if I am not mistaken is from the UK (as I am) and as such I believe he is better placed to understand the basis of my comments.

Even at $80 a month which equates to $1920 over the 24 month term + $199 up front (total $2119), that's a rediculous amount to pay for a phone you will have to throw away when you are done with it! Even if it is cheaper than the xPhone!
[EVO 4G General] Sirchuk:
Doesn't the UK typically have cheaper phones? So if this was released in the UK it would likely cost less than it does here in the states. Then again, if you're looking at importing a US phone because it's the fastest Android phone on the market with the biggest screen and a freakin kick stand, then who gives a crap about how much it costs (I sure didn't.) We all buy what we can afford, only the stupid people buy what they can't afford (hence why most American's, and Greece, are in debt. Yes, I just called a country and most American's stupid.)
[EVO 4G General] pa49:
Hold on there! What's made you all so jumpy about this issue/phone?

My comparison was with my UK eye and I was simply relaying my thoughts to another UK member who probably has a similar eye.

I've been in the states long enough to understand the US perspective on all this, however, trust me when I say it's alien to us europeans.

That doesn't make it wrong or right, just different.

And I understand just how a good quality kickstand plays it's part as well as the difference in the cost of equipment that each market can sustain/support.

But, this phone would not be entertained anywhere else but the US (and I think some carriers in AUS) so that really ends it all right there, doesn't it?

BTW I hope all you Sprint customers are liking the headsets you got with your EVOs!

Only kidding cos I LUV GOLDEN CORRAL and we've got nothing like that!
[EVO 4G General] Sirchuk:
UK plans and price point will be completely different than the US if they were to have this phone as well right? (Complete hypothetical here, since we know the UK isn't getting this phone, yet.) Plus it would likely be a phone with a swappable sim.

What else about the phone would someone in the UK not like? The 4.3 inch screen? The 8MP rear camera and the front facing camera? The 1ghz Snapdragon processor? The FM Radio? The kickstand? The smooth glass surface? Dual LED flash? Android 2.1? Next generation internet connection?

So the only real negative if it was in the UK, would be the micro SD card under the battery (I've never needed to hot-swap my SD card.), the battery life (mine is over 24 hours a charge with medium-high usage, including hours of streaming Pandora) and the HTC Sync. I've never used the software myself, but I think that there has been an update since release, you might want to give it a go.

Oh, and you knocked Android as an OS as a whole, comparing it to Windows Mobile 6.5 that even Microsoft thinks sucks and has since dropped it. I love the Android OS personally, over BB, WM6.5, and iOS.

Don't try to make him feel better by knocking the EVO because he can't get it in the UK. We know that's what you were trying to do and the thought was nice and all, but the EVO really is the perfect phone.

(Yes, there was sarcasm in there and a jab at fanboyism.)

When i use a Rom with the sense interface and i go to "messaging" => "new message" => "choose contact"

I can fill in a name from a contact, and his/her name and number show up.

When i use a Rom withOUT the sense interface and i go to "messaging" => "new message" => "choose contact"

when i fill in a name from a contact, it doesn't search in "people" for my contact.

It works fine, when i first go to people and select someone and then i choose for sms. But that isn't the way i want to work...

Is there someone who can fix it?

If you want to integrate it into another ROM, just download the first one, deodex and copy over to the ROM of your choosing.

Hello my friend,

I'm sorry for this noob question....but why using CFC Compressions on Manila.

1) Is the quality bettar with CFC compression ?

2) Is Manilla faster ?

3) Other benefits ?

Thanks a lot my friend for your answer,

regards,

Nixeus
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] xmoo:
CFC made the files smaller and work faster (if i'm correct)
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] Nixeus:
Thanks a lot for your answer , nevertheless, is the quality better with CFC compression ?
[HD2 Windows Mobile 6.5 ROM Development] bulltrip:
Early:

1) quality is the same (would i say) - the png files are only compressed (you have ca. 30 Mbyte less)

2) many users say : Yes

3) dont know

but in the new Manila Files - the Compression make not much sense... you dont feel the speed --> my opinion... not cfc

but if you have vga device --> you must have cfc...

Plz correct me, if im wrong

I moved to an area where T-mobile and the N1 was not cutting it unfortunately. So the EVO was the first pick for me when it came down to switching carriers. I love how the phone looks and feels but I really don't like HTC Sense.

As of right now I don't really have plans on rooting my phone but I would really like to get rid of all the HTC stuff. I am using the stock launcher but I would like all the other HTC apps to go back to stock as well. Some of them are okay, but I just prefer the clean and simple look of the stock Android OS.

Can everything be removed through Settings: Applications: Manage Apps? And can I chose to go back to the HTC stuff if I ever felt like it?
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] timothydonohue:
i think that the best you're going to be able to do right now is to pull all the widgets off. you really can't just 'remove' sense ui. it's integrated pretty deeply.

i'm also off an n1, and there are a LOT of things i miss, dev wise. however, i do love the size of the screen (even tho it looks totally washed out and drab in comparison).

you'll be fine. just pull the widgets off. get a new launcher off the market, or a whole new home.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booloobunny:
Thanks for the reply. I am interested in how you have your EVO at this time. Any suggestion on the launcher? Sense isn't bad... it's quick and does the job, but it just feels bloated and kinda cluttery for me.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kshawn:
I like how integrated it is with contacts and some other minor stuff even when using another launcher such as adw.launcher or launcherpro. I'll just have to build a custom rom for myself eventually when I gather more knowledge, and hope all goes well.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] ffolkes:
unfortunately you can't. sense isn't just bloated the apps crammed on the phone, but it's also hardcoded into parts of the operating system itself. you can change the launcher, but you can't ever have a fully vanilla android experience until one of the genius devs here creates a rom based on something like aosp. the good news is, when that happens, it's very likely froyo will be the basis for it.

i agree though, i love the clean, fast, simple, "real" android look over the busy, bloated, steampunk contraption that is the sense ui. i think it's stupid htc doesn't offer a plain android version, as plenty of people have no use for all the crap they force on us.

fortunately the evo handles all that overhead well, unlike the poor hero that was reduced to a crawl under the weight of it.
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booloobunny:
That's a real shame. You should definitely be given the option to use the standard Android OS. Oh well, I havent even had the phone 24 hours. I should get used to it. : )
[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] prestonr83:
yes it does I try not to look at my nexus one screen anymore because looking at it and then looking at the evo while I love the 4.3" the colors are so much richer and blacker on the nexus one. I am going to miss it once I sell it but I'm sure once I get use to the evo and don't have an nexus one to compare it to wont be so bad.

I too hate sense and can not wait for a froyo rom to be built once AOSP for 2.2 finally comes out.

[EVO 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] booloobunny:
After giving the phone a little more time, I am getting used to it. It's a good phone, I just wish all the HTC stuff was optional. I can just blast through anything on my N1, so it's hard to get used to. I got a nice quick sale on the Nexus, so at least thats a plus. : )
