    anyone else Loving the deeper exchange integration?

    Re: anyone else Loving the deeper exchange integration?? IMHO, HTC Sense is the only implementation on Android that does Exchange/Activesync accounts right. With the various views (conversation, starred, unread etc.) that are in the mail client, direct GAL lookup with additional info (not the...

    Does Evo 2.2 automatically restore Market apps?

    Purchased apps will restore when you go to the downloads area in the Market, but free apps from your prior image won't show. If you have it rooted, you should use Titanium Backup or any other backup solution to backup all you apps prior to flashing a new ROM. Then it is two steps to restore...

    wifi/3g radio state and and battery drain in froyo

    To clarify the issue has nothing to do with 3g reception or the wifi being constantly on: I have perfect 3g reception in my home, and if I turn off wifi and just leave 3g on, i get 18-24 hrs of battery life at home. Likewise, if I just leave wifi on and turn 3g off, I get 24 hrs + of battery...

    wifi/3g radio state and and battery drain in froyo

    I am not sure if this is an app related issue or a bug in froyo: When I am at home and turn on the wifi radio on my EVO, it connects to my network, but then the battery seems to drain 4-5x faster than normal, unless I explicitly turn the 3g radio off, which is when it reverts to the normal rate...

    can't uninstall roadsync

    I downloaded Roadsync 2.5 Demo on my phone to see how good the widgets and UI were, and decided I was fine with the stock HTC one, so I am trying to uninstall Roadsync now, but the uninstall fails. Any tips on how to get this off the Evo?

    Consensus: Will leaving GPS ON consume more battery life?

    I have tried running my EVO for several days with GPS turned on and turned off, there is negligible impact on battery life just leaving the setting on. Android and most apps are smart about only actually using the gps radio when the app asks for it. (although I have run into a few poorly...

    Question about Sprints contracts

    AFAIK all new evo activations require a 2 yr contract/extension. That being said, if you are a sprint premier customer (i.e. have a plan that costs > $99/month), you qualify for the upgrade discount every 12 months.
