    Help Can't get into factory reset menu

    I'm looking for the instructions for doing a factory reset on my Evo 4g so I can prep it for sale. I haven't used it in months. Holding the volume down or up doesn't work. What's the trick now? Also, what's even the value of this? My casing has some cracked plastic and the screen has some...

    Noob here: Just got my new SG4GLTE....Now what?

    I bought a HTC Evo 4G at launch over 3 years ago and I have to admit I'm still an Android n00b. For anyone that can provide some answers to some general questions, it would be greatly appreciated: 1. What major differences can I expect? I turned it on for the first time and everything looked...

    Help My Phone Screen: Easy/cheap fix, or Kaput?

    As you can see, there's some damage at the top of the screen resulting in these green pixel-like marks that do not seem to effect normal touch screen functions. This was a result of a hard drop. You'll also notice there are a couple spots where it's brighter and washed out, one on the "G" right...

    Help HELP! Having a hard reset NIGHTMARE!!

    I've had my Evo since launch last year, and I've taking issue with my phone's performance lately, so I figured it was time for a factory reset. I'm not very careless though, so I researched up and down the internet today about what to do and the best way to get things back the way you want them...

    Help My EVO is Falling Apart!

    Help! The perks of having this phone are quickly becoming non-applicable! First off, my compass stopped being accurate months ago. Tried calibrating many times and it's still completely off and jumpy. Then the Gingerbread update happened and I can't use Voice Search or Voice-to-Text while...

    Help Borked compass. Covered under warranty?

    My compass has been all screwy for a while now. Even tried calibrating it in the compass app and waiting for updates, and I've decided it'sa hardware issue. Is this covered by the HTC manufacturers warranty? Can I just take it to Best Buy since that's who I bought it from? They'd probably just...

    Help Junkware self installing on my phone?

    Just opened up my apps to see a Blockbuster app I did not download. It won't let me end the task through system panel, and it won't let me uninstall. Did another program download this, or did it come with the latest updated? If it did, I'm severely disappointed and I'll even root to get rid of it.

    Gripe: This phone's "functionality" is stating to embarrass me

    I'm at my gf's nieces' birthday party, and first I try to video a special moment, but I had just finished recording something else and the screen just went black. I could feel the haptic feedback working, but nothing was happening, so I just turned it off. Then I wanted to take a picture of...

    Help Incoming Call (While on a Call) = No Contact Info since 2.2?

    I know there have been sporadic complaints of random things happening (or not happening) since the update this week. So far, I myself haven't had any complaints, but I just noticed that if I get a call WHILE I'm on a call, only the phone number of the new caller shows up, and none of their...

    Could I/Should I Insure my phone?

    For anyone that's experienced with Sprint's insurance policies: I've had my Evo for a little over a month now, and it hasn't seen much action, but I'm going camping this weekend and it just made me think.. what if something happened to it while I was out there? My only experience with...

    So, I just saw that I have 139 apps on my phone

    Is that a lot? Also, related question: when we get Froyo, can we move/install/run apps from the SD card?

    Anyone having trouble with Beautiful Widgets?

    I was about to break down and buy it from the market since the euro's doing almost as poor as the dollar lately, but I read a few reviews that are making me apprehensive. Like slow performance and battery drain after install, and some people pointing out the Evo specifically. Maybe problems...

    What a beautiful clock we have on our Pattern Unlock screen

    So why can't I use that as a clock widget for my home screen! :mad: I mean, it's so nice. The font, the spacing, the size, the position... I'd love that to be my normal home screen clock, so are our free options really limited to either the real estate killing, non-customizable HTC clocks, or...

    How do I take a screenshot since the update?

    Hey guys, I'm curious as to how I can take a screen grab of my non-rooted phone since the update killed the use of the ShootMe app. No, I'm not interested in rooting my phone just for this purpose. Ever since the OTA update a few of my entertainment apps (soundboards and the like with lots of...

    Phone frozen in idle! What the crap?

    I just posted a thread about 20 minutes ago about my battery. Whatever. It was fine. Took a couple more shots of the battery usage screen with ShootMe and emailed them to myself. It's been plugged into the wall charger since before I posted the thread. I went to double-check the menu setting...

    Help Strange Battery Draining (Yes, I searched)

    First off let me say that I've looked around and can't find specifically the same thing that's happening to my phone. Maybe I'm not looking specifically enough... So I changed some settings recently to help with my battery life though tips I found on here, such as setting my syncs to up to...
