I've got the EVO - ask me anything!

I can think of plenty of circumstances. Taking a call while navigation is running; looking up movie times while making plans with someone on the phone; sending someone a file or pictures while describing the adventures you're having on a trip; etc.

How about talking to someone who sends you an email to review? Pretty basic workday stuff that I do all the time over WiFi. This would allow it over cdma as well, which would be even more important to have during work travel. Not too hard to see how that would be a good thing. LTE will chew battery I'm sure, so more valuable over cdma at this point.

Exactly. Better to have the capability than to not have it.

Some benefits of having data during a call are navigation, tethering to other devices, making a plan with someone and checking movie times, or just looking something up as you talk to someone. I think there are a lot of benefits that you just don't realize until you start having that ability. I, for one, am really looking forward to this feature once I can get my phone!

Okay, here's my question, HTC stated that you could sync it with iTunes. Is that true? Does that only apply to internal memory only? Thanks!

Check Me Out On The Google Play Store!!!

How's the battery holding up? I think it's been long enough to have a decent review.

I highly doubt this will ever be answered...

Maybe Phil fell into a well or something...?? Hope he's alright.

Where is the SD card slot? How do I access it?

Pop off the back cover above the kickstand. It's at the top.

Look right behind the power button. There is a slight groove where you can stick your finger nail onto and tease it out.

Ok, now that the sd card is in, what menu steps do I take on the phone to view the files?

Thanks,

When will Sprint Stores have their shipments? It appears those that preordered are the only people getting their phones now. No instore stock, right?

See thats the concern I see with getting the new EVO. It doesnt have a removeable battery which would mean if the battery craps out then the whole phone is shot. Sprint loves to jerk its customers around with the TEP and I could see them telling a customer who's EVO 4G LTE battery crapped out that its considered "customer abuse" and they have to file a claim with Asurion and pay $100 to get a replacement phone.

If its covered by TEP its covered by TEP.. I have never had that kind of issue

How do you get clear, sharp contact pics? Setting the contacts to 'Phone' contacts didn't work...

I use Astro File Manager.

So far all seem very good, but I seem to have a charging issue. When I charge it up, it goes to 99% but never gets to 100% even though I leave it in the charge mode or a long time. The indicator stays RED. I think it should go to green when at 100% like my old EVO 4G.

So, if it indeed supports OTG, then is there any way to charge the phone while using it as a USB host at the same time?

Reason I ask is I want to see if I can connect my XBOX 360 controller to it, play games, and charge the phone at the same time.

Thanks!

Where'd you read that it does? I've seen several people state the opposite on XDA.

 

[dlxrider]

I exported my contacts to the SD card but when I imported it I am missing some numbers. What did I do wrong?

I thought any Honeycomb and above device supported it.
