Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

You KNOW you'll just toss and turn if you try to sleep now. Constantly looking over at your night stand and trying to resist the temptation that is ... "HTC Software Update!"

I'll be watching my loner phone waiting for the phone call from best buy!

That would be the Random Social Chit-Chat thread. I think I even managed to hit 1k as well

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

I wonder if they are having this same conversation in the optimus g threads. I find it even worse that for as late as it came out it was even released with ICS. At least it sorta makes sense for the evo.

Optimus G is was faster than the EVO, and has no multitasking problems. quadcore/2gb ram. I don't think they are sweating it yet.

Optimus G is was faster than the EVO, and has no multitasking problems. quadcore/2gb ram. I don't think they are sweating it yet.

Number of cores over 2 is pretty much irrelevant in real-world performance on a phone (even 2 is a waste much of the time). It is even a waste on many bigger systems too, depending on the user and apps. And the Evo LTE is no certainly no slouch with the S4 chip. Most people aren't playing hugely complex FPS on a phone or trying to transcode video or trying to fold proteins in a complex scientific simulation.

However, the amount of memory (which is RAM) can make a big difference when it comes to the way an Android device can delay swapping out stuff or resorting to suspend-and-reload. 2GB is a real-world advantage for task switching; especially if your device is going to run a "heavy" launcher/environment on top of Android, like the HTC phones do. Of course, I would guess that 90% or more of Android users have no concept about task switching vs. multitasking vs. suspend-resume, etc. (Don't feel sad, probably 99% of iOS users don't )

Oops, I am supposed to be in bed...

A phone like the gs3 seemed really fast with ics. Based on the 1x+. We are in for a treat

That is more a function of tweaking the user response code and not number of cores or even CPU/GPU speeds. The benchmarks show pretty clearly that, overall, the GS3 is not faster than the Evo LTE.

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

Well I got the GS3.. In some ways I kind of miss my EVO LTE.. All the store reps say that the EVO has the antenna issues so I finally switched.

I do have a lot more apps installed than my friend with the gs3

Speak for yourself, sir. I was actually just taking a break from trying to fold protein to catch up on this thread.

Ok so next target is 2500 before someone screenshots their update? Can WE DO IT!!!

But on to other things, what known issues with Sense 4+ do you guys hope they fixed before we get it

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

Twas the night before the update and all through this place
Everyone was hoping their EVOs had space.
The kickstands were tucked away with tender loving care
In hopes that the update soon would be there.

Android fans were trying to get comfy in bed
While visions of Jelly Bean danced in their heads.
With Lloyd in his green suit and me in my shorts
We had just settled down but I was still out of sorts.

When out on the street there arose a loud clatter
I tripped over my charger trying to see what was the matter.
Away to the garage I flew in a flash.
Grabbing my gun and the bullets I stashed.

The moon on the lawn gave off a nice glow
But I live in Phoenix, so there isn't much snow.
When what to my blood-shot eyes should appear
But a guy driving a Gremlin with little to no fear.

The driver himself had a big, fluffy beard
And onto the sidewalk he suddenly verred.
He slammed on the brakes and created a sight
When he got out of the car, he seemed to be all right.

He walked up to me and told me his name.
He said it was Jerry and he told me again.
Then he surprised me right out of the gate.
"I understand you want your Jelly Bean update."

I told him I did and he smiled a bit
Then he asked for a beer and a place he could sit.
"I wish I had news, but I can only offer this:
I am sure it will come soon and you will find bliss."

He told me he worked for some monster named Phil.
"Yeah, he's a tyrant. Make of that what you will."
He said he was told he was to drive through the town
And quash all the Jelly Bean rumors abound.

He offer his thanks for the beer and the seat
And gave me an Otterbox which was really quite neat.
He crawled back in the Gremlin and started the thing.
It smoked and it backfired and it did it again.

And I heard him exclaim as he drove out of sight,
"Nickerson's a monster, and maybe you will get Jelly Bean tonight!"
