I've got the EVO - ask me anything!

Nice phone, I wish there was a sensitivity setting. I always have to guard against getting close to the screen.
How do you prevent the screen from going dark when you are using the phone? When placed near my face the screen goes dark, move it away it comes back on. I know it has to do with the proximity sensor, i do have the Zadd HD on, it's not covering the sensor. How do i fix that issue?

That's a safety issue for your head, the phone is designed to go dark when you put it close to your ear or face.

Phil, I was thinking of upgrading to the evo lte soon, but I've heard stores of overheating issues!? Have you heard any thing about this? Are these isolated, possible problem? If so have you heard anything from htc? Thanks in advance.
 
The time zone problem is a known issue with the HTC EVO 4G. I have experienced it myself. You can set the time or hit cancel. Sprint/HTC is investigating the issue and will look to correct with the first maintenance release.
 
@amywineberry: I had the EVO 3D last year and like the device. The 3D function was a bit of a gimmick and I ended up not using it after awhile. Anyway with the EVO 4G you get the lastest device with more camera functions and a better screen. It will be bigger than your EVO 3D and LTE (which has not launched anywhere yet) vs Wimax 4G. If you live in a Wimax 4G market and are getting good service you might stick with the 3D. If you like the lastest HTC has to offer then the EVO LTE is for you. : )
 
What's up with the Bluetooth advance function....are they suppose to allow my Bluetooth to read SMS and/or emails...because I set them but they won't stick

I'm sure this is something I did but now when some screens load a red line flashes around the edge of my screen. Any help would be appreciated. Couldn't get a screenshot cause it happens too fast and sporadically.

How do I delete multiple emails on my new EVO 4g LTE?

Just got my new Evo 4g LTE - and love it. I'm a pretty intuitive guy, but just can't figure out how to easily delete multiple emails without going through them one by one....and I don't want to do that.

How is that done O wise one?

You need to you the stock email for multiple deletion of Gmail, unless you go to Gmail from browser.

:confused:
In the GMail app, you can delete multiple emails by ticking the little box next to each one and tapping the trash can that appears at the bottom of the screen.

I have tried 3 of the latest high dollar bluetooth headsets but none work in hands free mode. While I can hear phone in headset, phone doesn't hear through headset. Phone mic stays active. So, using Vlingo in car mode creates problem. Headsets work fine on phone calls.
Any suggestions on fix?
 
My wifes phone quit on her. I'm on my 3rd phone & now my wife is going to be on her 2nd. Any others had this kind of issue with theirs? My 1st is like my wife's first, it just quit. My 2nd never would update any emails. BB replaced my 1st 2, Sprint is replacing my wife's for $35. Everyone says these are good phones, no issues. Maybe i'm jinxed
