not exactly what you're asking about but...

the last two chargers i bought off ebay charge a 2400Mah nexus battery in 3-4 hours from 1% (dead) to fully charged, and have a usb port on the bottom also. So, if you carry a micro usb cable, you can charge two batteries at once (one in phone, one in charger) and then a third on another charger. at least you'll have three 2400 mah batteries charged in a few hours, and it's very difficult to burn through that much juice in a day.

even shooting HD video, you'll be swapping micro sd cards before batteries if you get a 2400 or larger battery.

the replacement batteries of stock size charge on my ebay chargers in about 45 minutes or less. just a reference.

:)
[Nexus One Accessories] tina333:
Do you have a link to show which charger on eBay? :)
[Nexus One Accessories] zuberio:
I've been thinking about something like this, so I can charge on the go without having to power off and replace the battery. The best I could come up with was v3 of the minty boost -> http://www.ladyada.net/make/mintyboost/

[EVO 4G General] 4redstars:
nothing in these posts confirms anything...I'm hoping too but I mean there is nothing that confirms we are getting gingerbread

(i believe we will at some point though)
[EVO 4G General] xhazyx:
one way or another we'll get gingerbread.... CM definetely (and with them getting closer to 4G, it wont a no go for some ppl)

But I'm pretty sure we'll get it from HTC
[EVO 4G General] Just_s:
Did you not see the Bootable GB build posted two days ago? About five threads below yours. Basically, it's not a "hope" situation. While the Dev build is not a reliable everyday driver, it does work and for it to be bootable and fairly functional in less then 48 hours from release bodes well for a stable ROM coming very soon.
[EVO 4G General] sum33th:
How exactly will 2.3 work on my rooted phone? Will I need to find a ROM that is Gingerbread based?
[EVO 4G General] iitreatedii:
dude, this is not a waste of time, we were all not sure if at all this was going to b officially put out and this confirms it, this is huge news, stop trolling my post, all i am doing is putting HUGE news at least for me in a section where i know it can go noticed and has to do with Android development...Like i mentioned if a mod feels for some reason its inappropriate to have this here, move it

[EVO 4G General] ms79723:
Well when you think about it..of course we were getting gingerbread. HTC hasn't pushed any new hardware out in forever...they have new phones coming out but they're not gonna wait until those release before they get into the gingerbread game. If they were to overlook all current devices then people would just be like "bluh bluh their being just like Samsung bluh bluh." That's the last thing HTC wants, you think they dont know that one reason why people go to their devices instead of Samsung's is because of their support and on time updates? They scrap gingerbread for all current devices, then that just leaves hardware and Samsung's hardware is pretty damn impressive, makes choosing HTC over Samsung look kinda stupid.
[EVO 4G General] Award Tour:
Sure, guy. You can like the EVO more, but it's not faster than the Shift. The GPU alone is 2-3x faster. Not even close.
[EVO 4G General] scott951:
I think even if they did release gingerbread from htc/sprint with all of the roms that are out there for the evo with gingerbread i would prefer a sense free verison like next weeks release of miui with gingerbread
[EVO 4G General] LZLandingZone:
I can tell you that the update for the HTC EVO, will be out in two months. It will also contain Sense 2.0. It will, however, be the last official update from HTC.
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
Source. Welcome to the forums btw
[EVO 4G General] LZLandingZone:
I'd tell you my source, but he works for HTC, so he remains Anon for now.
[EVO 4G General] abanh:
Good to hear. What about the Evo-shift?

Also- is HTC aware that the wimax chip doesn't turn off? Alogcat from the market shows the wimax chip constantly trying to initialize but earring out. The only way to turn it off is to reboot the phone.
[EVO 4G General] LZLandingZone:
The Evo Shift should be included, seeing how it's part of the Evo lineup and capable of running Gingerbread.

Not sure if HTC is aware of the Wimax chip issue. That would be something to bring up on their forums to see if they're aware.
[EVO 4G General] runcool:
why would I go with some rom that doesn't have 4g? I LIVE IN A 4G AREA!
[EVO 4G General] androidrookie84:
can't wait for the official gingerbread release,will it fix the camera's audio problem?
[EVO 4G General] empiire:
If you need a stable GB ROM, flash Salvage Mod 1.0, I've been using it as my daily driver but I'm about to switch over to the ported Incredible S ROM. On Salvage, camera works, video camera, wifi, 4G, everything. I don't know about HDMI since I've never had a use for it as of yet, but I'd just go Salvage Mod 1.0 with the kernel it comes packed with. Just my two cents as far as stock GB ROMs go. :D
[EVO 4G General] LZLandingZone:
Remember that running the Wimax chip also chips away at your battery. I've used 4G twice since I got my Evo last Wednesday. It's great, but for now, its uses are limited.
[EVO 4G General] Justin.G11:
What ROM doesn't have 4G these days? Only MIUI to my knowledge, the rest have full 4G and HDMI support now thanks to TeamWin.

Maybe your question should be "why do I care when Sprint will get around to updating Sense, community has already given me way more already"?
[EVO 4G General] indagroove:
I would like an official update, because I like updated drivers.
[EVO 4G General] Horsetooth:
Email from htc about gingerbread and sense!!!!!!

Just wanted to share this good news with the community!!! Finally an answer about the EVO update.:D

My email to HTC was something like this (recalling from memory):

I have been a huge fan of HTC. I have had a HTC Wizard, HTC Herald, 2 HTC Kaisers, HTC Touch Pro, 2 HTC Dreams, HTC HD2, and a HTC EVO. I am writing in regards to my EVO 4G getting a Gingerbread with Sense 2 update. I do not mean to complain, but I wish HTC would be straight forward with this information. The iPhone first gen was supported by Apple for over 3 years, and here I am with an HTC phone that came out only 9 months ago, and I am fretting and worrying about whether I will get the Gingerbread and Sense update or not!!!!!! EVO owners would just prefer a straight forward answer. I know the EVO is getting an update, but I am only interested in Gingerbread and Sense.

A straight forward answer would be much appreciated. Thank you for your

time.

Sincerely,

Stephen

HTC's response to me:

Dear Stephen,

Thank you for contacting HTC Technical Support. I understand how important it is for your device to get the Android 2.3 update and I would be glad to provide you with information.

We are excited to announce that the HTC Evo 4G will receive the Gingerbread Android 2.3 update in the 2nd quarter of 2011. I do not have the exact day the update will be released. Please stay tuned for details as we get closer to the update availability.

Updates to the HTC Sense experiences and htcsense.com are independent of upgrades to the Core Operating System in our devices. I do not have any information at this time regarding an HTC Sense upgrade for HTC Devices. I do apologize for any inconvenience you may have experienced.

Please reply back if you have questions regarding this email and do not hesitate to contact us again in the future.

To send a reply to this message or let me know I have successfully answered your question log in to our ContactUs site using your email address and your ticket number xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx.

Told you guys...it was only a matter of when
[EVO 4G General] godgib:
I've never cosidered buying a phone and basing my purchase on a Update. However with the increasing use of a phone as a kind of laptop replacement(I use that term Lightly). I actually did when I purchased my EVO back in Aug/10 and from what I read about how Froyo being faster then the 2.1. So I went with the EVO/Froyo and my wife got the Epic/2.1. Now she can't even get the 2.2 update, which was promised back when we bought the phones, and I suspect that I might even get 2.3 before she gets her 2.2. On that note, it was not apperant untill I got my EVO and started realizing how much could be done with it, but now it's obvious that other conderations like Rooting / Dev's/ Apps/ communitity / and support, are more important then having a slideout keyboard and a Super AMOLED screen. I'll even take the not so great battery life, over a outdated AOSP. This is just my 5 centses....
[EVO 4G General] ant76:
I want a ava ginger rom not a htc any one got word from ava if and when he's gonna release his .... the z3 rocks if his gingerbread is as good as froyo its gonna be sweet
[EVO 4G General] kingdazy:
exactly.

the devs here do GREAT things, given that what they have to work with often comes from other phones.

but a Fully Functioning base gives them room to AMAZING things.

IMHO (ymmv), some of the best ROMs here are made with a Sense base, and from a fully functioning SenseGB will come even greater ROMs, with almost No issues, fixes or workarounds necessary.

Not to mention will give the AOSP devs a fully function set of drivers to do their thing with.

Heres to hoping it will be Sense2.x!!!

(and as an aside, I live in a 4G, and love it. Anyone that might use a reader knows. I use NewsRoom, and that **** loads up Fast! 3G took whole minutes (at best) to load up articles.)
[EVO 4G General] tailsthecat3:
oldest articles ever. none of this information is valid...not today anyhow. still nobody knows whatll get what. wait wait wait
[EVO 4G General] iitreatedii:
Ummm, actually you can email HTC and they reply back with the answer of yes, 2nd quarter if 2011...
[EVO 4G General] GlocksRock:
I'f I'm rooted now, using the enrevoked method, will I have to unroot before updating to 2.3 when it's released, or can I just apply the ota update. If I can apply the update without unrooting, will I have to root my phone again after the update, or will it still be rooted? Sorry for the noobishness, but I don't feel like sifting through tons of posts to find out.
[EVO 4G General] cordell12:
If your using Cyanogen& Rom, you do nothing at all, you already have Gingerbread. If you are using a Sense Rom, you are better off waiting for a Gingerbread Rom to be released. It wont take long, maybe 2 days to have a "stock" rooted 2.3 rom out. Then come the custom roms! If you go back to stock and do the OTA update you may lose root. Sprint may block the current exploit that gives us root and it may take a while to get your phone rooted again. NEVER accept a OTA update while ROOTED!!!
[EVO 4G General] GlocksRock:
Ok cool, that answered my question... thanks for the quick reply. I'm new to the whole custom android scene, as I just came from a blackberry curve 8530 and I rooted my phone, but haven't delved into the whole custom rom thing yet, I'm still using the stock rom.
[EVO 4G General] monkeyzero:
You can email me and I'll tell you the same thing. Sadly, in this world, ESPECIALLY with sprint, I'll believe it when I see it.
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
im almost certain the evo will not see an ota of gingerbread.
[EVO 4G General] cordell12:
Stop Trollin, LOL J/K :D

There is no reason to release a GB OTA. We have GB already, sooner or later wel will have Sense 2.3 as well :)
[EVO 4G General] fixxxer2008:
no what we have is cm7. im talking about ginger/sense, not some port of it. if we had the official ota the roms would be blooming right now. with the evo3d coming running ginger, there is no need for sprint or htc to give the original evo the update.
[EVO 4G General] cordell12:
Sort of what they did with the hero, either buy the Evo or live with 2.1 :mad: I say a port can happen regardless, but they still dont have Sense 2.2 on Hero yet, unless I missed it (fully functioning). I would not be the least surprised if they dont upgrade the Evo to 2.3 HTC has already stated the carrier controls releases of OTA's, and lets face it. This is sprint we are talking about :rolleyes: lol
[EVO 4G General] goldenmonkey1:
Couldn't the Hero essentially not handle 2.2 though, hardware wise? The Evo can handle 2.3 easily. I'd imagine it gets this update, but none past it, of course.
[EVO 4G General] iitreatedii:
Yeah but your a nobody in Sprint terms...
[EVO 4G General] cordell12:
I ran 2.3 on my Hero :) In all reality the Hero couldnt handle 2.1 :D
[EVO 4G General] swaze:
The evo will get it but it will be actually 2.4 but still be gingerbread ....expect it around the time the evo 3d is released.

[EVO 4G General] touchprofan:
I have to agree that the Samsung build quality is superior.

I think though that a more compelling reason would be pressure from Sprint in the hopes of stemming all the one year Evo upgrades right around the corner. A Gingerbread update also takes some of the sting out of Sprints new upgrade policy for a lot of people.

I think that was Sprints primary reason for changing its uprade policy. Way too many Evo owners up for upgrades.
[EVO 4G General] mithritades:
How is Samsungs build quality superior to HTC?...how did you come to this conclusion?(your opinion aside)
[EVO 4G General] huludical:
I've been through three evo. All three with major light leakage.
[EVO 4G General] huludical:
I've been through three evo. All three with major light leakage. I don't know how good Samsungs build quality is, but I know HTC's sucks.
[EVO 4G General] theultimatev:
That is quite terrible and I'm sorry to hear that, but Samsung products also have a cheap feel that I don't seem to get when I hold an HTC product. However, in terms of hardware capability Samsung packs a punch.
[EVO 4G General] touchprofan:
My opinion aside?

Lol.

You've managed to dismiss my response before I've even made it.

I think its fairly obvious actually.

To hold them is to know them.

If you hold the Evo and just take a good gander at it, the physical details of it, aside from the form which is quite nice, and do the same with, say an Epic, actually thats a fairly good example. Look at the usb connector for both the Evo and the Epic.

That is a prime example of how the Samsung product build is superior. The Evo seems quite rushed by comparrison. The numerous HTC usb cable connectivity complaints tend to further point this one out.
[EVO 4G General] touchprofan:
I think pretty much most of the first gen devices have this problem. I've had it all along as well, in adition to a light inbalance midscreen thats noticable in low light.

These device hangups are tolerable within the limits of the warranty, but now that the warranty is about to expire its just about time to demand redress.
[EVO 4G General] E_Money915:
thats whuts up...now we can get some better custom 2.3 roms...dont get me wrong the ones they got now are awesome just some stuff could be improved in a hurry
[EVO 4G General] tx_dbs_tx:
The three links in the OP are old news from last year. None are recent. How do any of those articles indicate a rollout of gingerbread in the 2nd quarter of 2011? Not confirmed from what I read, but we can still expect Gingerbread later this year reguardless.
[EVO 4G General] jgalan14:
Htc said the is coming q2 2011 so we most likely getting it , I just saw in article about the desire hd getting it in Europe in April so hopefully we get it in may or a nice port out of the desire hd

[EVO 4G General] BeerMit:
Hungry...

For some gingerbread on my Evo

It's so close I can almost taste it

(Insert Homer Simpson mmmmm)

I'm running Azrael 4.0 right now, but I'm curious to see how well HTC's GB build runs for me.

As for those of you that said the Evo is inferior to the Epic...

I would like to extend a friendly "are you serious???"

every Epic I've ever handled has felt extremely cheap compared to the Evo

and its considerably bulkier than the Evo, which makes me find my Evo even sexier by comparison

just my 2 cents, had to stick up for my awesome phone :-P
[EVO 4G General] iitreatedii:
Told yah guys 2nd quarter confirmed stop hating it's a forum, and samsung stay out of this thread, this is about gingerbread
[EVO 4G General] OMJ:
actually, we are now in the 2nd quarter :)
[EVO 4G General] Vegasden:
Yep, sure is. I conjecture we'll see gingerbread right about the time the 3D (June?) comes out.

A lot of folks aren't going to qualify for the 3D with the new Premier threshold, so Sprint will pacify those "stuck" with the Evo with the upgrade. Personally, I love the Evo and such a move by Sprint would make my not being able to upgrade (I'm below the $ level) more palatable.

Just conjecture...

Oh really??? Well then you world realize it ends July 1st right...smh
[EVO 4G General] fceeviper:
Any official news on this update?
[EVO 4G General] Beejis:
I'm guessing we'll see it before the evo 3d so that by the time it comes out we'll be bored/disappointed with the upgrade to 2.3 and want to upgrade phones instead. Sorry for thinking so negatively, just in a sour mood...
