Do you or your buddy use a case? I am currently using a gel case and a zagg protector and have no damage.

No cracks here either, however does anyone else feels the PWR button on the Evo is a little flimsy?

 

[boggs3010#AC]

Never directly touched it....

I really need to stop reading these posts, they are not helping my OCD. But really no I do not have a crack also.

No crack here and I must press it about 200 times a day.

BTW, have anyone noticed this: when I power down the phone, I have to wait about 30 seconds to be able to boot it back on. I have also noticed that if connected to the charger, it won't turn back on unless disconnected first. Have never had this happen on any smartphone before.

Yes I had that issue also if i really want it to cut back on i just pull the battery and put it back.

** OR just do soft resets... bye holding the power button and pressing volume up and down repeatedly(fast)

 

[Cory Streater]

I've never had either of those issues. Are you using the stock charger?

Not all the time. I have several microUSB chargers from my prior phones that fit the Evo and provided charge for similar sized batteries.

Not familiar with that procedure, AFAIK (and per HTC instructions) a soft-reset for the Evo is achieved by by press-holding the power button, selecting power-off and then powering back on again.

Strangely enough, I see it on mine.
It is very small, 1mm in length.
I can see it with a 10x loupe.
Not too worried. Probably a mold defect.

I only asked because I've experienced wonky screen behavior when I've used non other non OEM chargers.

Anyway's, sorry to the OP that I'm changing the subject here. Back to the topic at hand

no cracks.

i completely agree -- i need to stop reading them as well. i can't even fully enjoy the phone; i keep waiting for something bad to happen to it.

Oh boy, now we gonna hear that all Evo's are getting cracks just like the screen separations. I think i'll stop reading these problem Evo posts, just like my old pre, I have no issues. I suggest you and your friend exchange it for another one before your 30 days expire.
