I have an EVO ...

[crackerstyle]

The pre is mentioned in the reviews of the charger..

Yeah I know, the first review on there is me. Guess the Precentral store and that site share a database or something.

I guess it makes sense after thinking about it since that site is an HTC website, why list competitor phones that the charger is compatible with.

There's two(?) micro USB ports?! There's one micro and one mini.
I'm going to use the same cheap rocket fish car charger that I've been using for my Pre.
I'll let you guys know 5 minutes after I but the Evo if I blew it up q:

Probably right. For some reason I thought there was a 4 pin and a 5 pin.

Please don't try to plug a charger into the HDMI port! But let me know if you do so I can nominate you for a Darwin award.

@doc31: How usable was the screen outdoors?

How is the build quality, is it all plastic or does it have a metal housing?

Can anyone tell me how long the EVO takes to start up? I currently have a Pre and that thing takes a couple of minutes.

I have a PRE & the absolute best option is the call ID pic is HUGE.. FROM ACROSS THE ROOM I CAN SEE WHO's CALLING... When u make a call or receive a call on the EVO is it a big pic & does the pic stay while talking & does the pic show n text messages & emails?

 

[fr4nk1yn]

uh... Thanks, I'm not trying to plig a charger into the HDMI port.

enough with the Palm Pre propaganda.

I love Android OS as much as the next person, but hate misinformation. I would do the same thing over at Pre Central but they dont really trash Android that much.

one of the reasons i am buying from BB and not Sprint Retail is because BB may not be perfect but their staff are a lot more professional and friendly than Sprint Retail. i have encountered some of the most miserable, lazy, unprofessional, unfriendly, sales people at Sprint Retail. and i'm not some kid off the street - i'm a professional and these people act like i am bothering them and they are doing me a favor.

WOW! I wish you were in my area. I would like the opportunity to show you that we (yes I work for Sprint) are not ALL like that. I pride myself on my customer service abilities. I also LOVE teaching my customers how to make the most out of the device that they pick. So much so that i just (today) set up a youtube page (haven't uploaded anything yet) where I will post tutorials on various devices and features.

As soon as I get the youtube page finished and start uploading tutorial, feel free to check it out and let me know what you think. I have always been a Blackberry person and very few phones have ever made me want to change that.......UNTIL NOW! I am fairly new to Android so ALL input is welcome. Feel free to check out my YouTube page HERE but like I said, I just started it today and don't have any videos up yet. I will soon.

i don't remember if the pic stays while you talking i think it does. for txt it shows the pic and you dont want to use the stock app download a app its call handset. for my opinion i think is the best one. for emails it will show in your gmail acc.

there are two micro and two mini standards:
Universal Serial Bus - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

only one of each are commonly used, though.

I saw an Incredible reboot in less than a minute.

I have a Sprint charger that I ordered from Sprint when I got my Pre. It is a 850 charger and it was capable of charging the phone while using Navigation, I am pretty sure this car charger should work well with the Evo as well. It has the Sprint logo on it that lights up yellow, well, it used to.

Evo 4G boots in less than 45 seconds.

Actually, if you're referring to that youtube video, you can see it was edited just before the sprint animation. Therefore, we don't have a concrete answer yet.

Thanks mike, I thought I had read somewhere that there were 2. Now I know I'm not crazy lol.
