What would you like to see improved on the EVO 4G?

**Jeremy** · 06-03-2010, 12:33 PM

Like the title says - what, if anything, would you have wanted see the EVO have whether it's in the hardware or software?

Sound off...

**Gathomblipoob** · 06-03-2010, 12:39 PM

Native screenshots, for one.

**Cree8r** · 06-03-2010, 12:41 PM

A new app called the "Time card clock" this way when i wake up i can punch the clock for work, stay home and play with my EVO and get paid

**jds** · 06-03-2010, 12:42 PM

i would like to see the phone come with an hdmi cord, actually shoot real HD video it's so compressed, be able to view the HD in 1080p a lot of people have this size TV, data/voice usage on the 3g network because a lot of people aren't going to have 4G at launch

**jds** · 06-03-2010, 12:44 PM

faster start up time.. it's still sort of slow its 1:38-1:40

**phwelo** · 06-03-2010, 12:45 PM

the only real thing that i would've liked to see is for the phone to be thinner

**jds** · 06-03-2010, 12:46 PM

the upload speeds on the 4g shouldn't be capped at 1 mbps when 3g upload speeds are faster

I don't have mine yet, so all of these are based purely on what I've read/seen:

- Better quality/speed photo/video capture (based on reviews/test shots I've seen)

- Fix the reversed image on the front-facing camera

- Froyo

- Sense home screen landscape mode

Moving the LED to the corner or top of the phone like on BB so I can see my message light from across the room.

and I know this is an andoid thing, but profiles where I can micromanage every aspect of every alert the phone can do.

I think someone can build a program that has more settings for the front camera and it can easily be turned around

as with any smart phone a better battery. squeeze as many mah into that space as you can

**Jeremy** · 06-03-2010, 01:05 PM

Awesome replies so far guys, keep them coming.

Unfortunately that's a limitation of CDMA. Can't do concurrent voice and data on 3G without an active wifi. Verizon phones can't do it either.

**crackerstyle** · 06-03-2010, 01:07 PM

To keep with the topic, Froyo for sure.

**akarol** · 06-03-2010, 02:38 PM

Froyo, more juice, and higher-res display. The icons seem huge to me. Waste of screen real estate.

**infenit101** · 06-03-2010, 03:01 PM

WebOS. Sense UI has gotten boring. Google should have bought palm.

**kona2day** · 06-03-2010, 03:06 PM

The battery has got to be the #1 thing. I think HTC should have done what Samsung did with the first Instinct. Give you a second battery and charging case for it. I'm sure they have known that the battery was not going to run this monster all day.

Mine boots in about 40 seconds. Way faster than the Hero was. Where are you seeing 1:38?

**kinster02** · 06-03-2010, 03:42 PM

I like it to be in my possession first before I can even answer this silly question....please feel free to ask again in a day or two after we all had time to evaluate it.

You people kill me about always wanting the phones to be thinner as if it isn't thin enough and then you whine about battery life.

**jam4775** · 06-03-2010, 04:26 PM

I would like to see more on-board storage and have the size of the app partition manually, or dynamically, adjustable (I know the last part would have to be enabled through the OS, but still would nice to see). It drives me nuts how little storage HTC usually puts in their phones... in my opinion there's really no excuse for it considering the price and size of flash memory now days.

**fonefanatic** · 06-03-2010, 04:54 PM

I have to agree with some of the other post. I would have like to seen Froyo and more internal storage space but it will be great anyway! Down to only 15 hours until I can get mine

**ecaggiani** · 06-03-2010, 05:11 PM

Would like to see the sd card issue fixed :-)

**eyecon82** · 06-03-2010, 09:59 PM

more onboard storage
have the camera recessed so it doesn't get scratched as easily
bigger LED so you can see notifications from 30 feet away like the blackberries
Copy and paste EVERYWHERE
slightly smaller, like 4.1?
Froyo

**infenit101** · 06-03-2010, 10:18 PM

I'd like Google/HTC whoever to create an itunes app where I can make regular backups, sync media, contacts, shop and buy new apps, songs etc.

side note: my Pre STILL (after months of it being an issue) can't sync my Google contacts anymore.. Wish Palm listened to our issues.. I'm just sayin..

can't wait to get my Evo.
