HTC Evo 3d General things and questions from an android convert

Re: HTC Evo 3d General things and questions from an android conve

The battery use for watching your movies sounds about right. Especially 3D movie viewing... I tested the battery and went for basically 3 1/2 hours of nonstop 3D movie viewing. And iPhone screen is nowhere close to a qHD screen both in size and power consumption. That's where most of our juice goes to. Either buy another battery just for the bus or return the phone if this is an issue, but it shouldn't be a surprise.

Audio on the device as far as speaker goes... sucks... but I don't have any problems with it on headphones... I have a Bose QC15 noise cancelling which work perfectly... the Panasonic RP-HC55 noise cancelling works well also; but I normally use my Bose for noise cancelling otherwise a cheap set of normal Sony earbuds that were $20 which happens to work just as well as long as I turn SRS or HTC 5.1 on... SRS just sounds like a lot of bass, HTC 5.1 sounds really good when watching movies and pretty loud.

HTC 5.1 sound is something I can just download from the Market?? I have a fairly nice pair of SkullCandy headphones, and while the quality is good it was just hard to hear above the bus noise....

So the battery life is better viewing non-3d movies?? I can't really compare, since I didn't start with a full charge earlier when I was watching it...

I think the 4000 mah'll be the way I end up going. If they'd get around to developing an extended case with a kickstand, I'd be all about it already....

About that big battery: I was also considering it but decided to buy 2 oem batts for less $. Also got the otter Defender case which won't work with that 4000 mAh batt. Also, how long does it take to charge the dang thing?

Now I have some questions:
1) what is "Rosie Utility"? No rep seems to know
2) what does "voice privacy" do?
3) how to change widgits on notification bar?
4) noticing phone taking a long time to access a http page. Normal?

Have more but this is enough for now. Learning a lot about my EVO 3d in these forums. You're a great bunch of people! Glad to be a member

Think it's stock... the movie just has to have 5.1 audio available I think. yes the battery is less when not doing 3D mode.
