I have the Evo 3D on Sprint, which is this very same phone but branded differently. Lucky for you all, you have ICS. Sprint's version will get it sometime this month or next month... We got what we thought was a leak, but turned out to be the Virgin Mobile version of the software. It's been ported to Sprint and I'm not sure if this is the final version or not. I'd like to find out if one of the bugs in the leak has been fixed or not - more curiosity than anything but I'd like to contact HTC about this bug if it is in the final version...

Bug: Pictures taken with the front camera are reversed left/right

How to reproduce: Take picture with the front camera (notice the image looks accurate in this view). Review the photo after it was taken, the pic is reversed left/right.

Thanks.

Technically not a bug as it's representing your movements accurately when you are in preview mode. You move to the left, the image of you moves to the left. (Aviator syndrome is common when it comes to webcams, people disorient themselves trying to remember to move in the opposite direction they want to) When you take a picture using the front camera, it is saved un-mirrored.

I agree, not a bug, just about any front-facing camera will do this (all Apple iSight cameras do this, webcams, etc.).
