Official EVO Rumors and Speculation thread

I sure wish Best Buy would allow you either the bluetooth or to use that as credit towards a different accessory. I appreciate the thought, but would much rather pick up a case or charger VS a dinky bluetooth...just my thoughts!

I am wondering from my fellow forum members, which bluetooth headset they may recommend. I'd like to spend my money wisely, and there are some pricey choices out there. I want my Evo to shine to its full potential...

Only a few more days...man I'm starting to pace back and forth LOL jk, BUT CLOSE!
I would recommend the BlueAnt Q1. I currently have the older BlueAnt V1 and love it's voice commands.

Don't forget that a lot of reviews for Zagg say that the "grippiness" of the material makes it problematic on touchscreen phones, and especially on multi-touch phones.

You can also read htc.EVOlution's review of the Zagg he purchased. Among other things, he mentions that it doesn't play nicely with the Seidio case.

I bought a full body GhostArmor shield for $15, and while I don't have an Evo to put it on yet, I can tell you that it's not grippy at all. I tried sliding & pinching, and the material didn't give much friction.
 
So with Froyo 2.2 the phone will rotate either way? Cool!

That's awesome. I was hoping they'd do that with the EVO or 2.2. One thing I'm wondering though is if Sense will still be on top of it for the 2.2 upgrade. That froyo port on the EVO is the nexus one version which I don't prefer over Sense.
 
How will I be able to update to Froyo? Do I have to wait for Sprint to release it or can I upload a custom firmware like I can on my iPhone. Tia.
 
I was wanting the Q1 but ended up at Best Buy with a 15 dollar off rewards zone coupon and I ended up with the new Jawbone Icon which also has voice commands and is similar.. The Q1 supposable partnered with Vlingo and with the new Android App would read your text and emails. The BB guy said so will the Jawbone and come to find out it's partnered with Jott and someone else and you have to pay. But it still works well and I am using it now on my LG Lotus cause I sold my TP2. It says the callers number in your ear and talks when your battery is so low and you can pick different voices male or female and it plays your MP3's podcast and will do your GPS. It's small and I like it. Just hope it works well with the EVO. Is Froy 2.2 going to have Voice Dialing so I can say call so and so through the headset and it will work?


I would recommend the BlueAnt Q1. I currently have the older BlueAnt V1 and love it's voice commands.

How can I take a screen capture on the Evo like I can with my iPhone? Thanks.

Using this App.

The link has a QR code, so if you have a scanner, it'll be easier to find...

Or if you go to AppBrain,set up an account, download the AppBrain sync, you can get all your apps easier...

For some reason, the Evo doesn't need to be rooted to use shootme...

How will I be able to update to Froyo? Do I have to wait for Sprint to release it or can I upload a custom firmware like I can on my iPhone. Tia.

Wait for this guy to tell you how to do it... If you feel that you will not be able to wait for Sprint to send an update, and don't necesarily mind not having Sense, and feel safe fiddling around with your phone...
 
Actually its 3 days 6 hours 5 minutes until June 4th!!! But who's counting right??

In the written review the author mentioned problems saving pictures and sending pictures. Big, big bummer.



It would be a big bummer if 5 out of ten reviews reported that problem, I have read tons of reviews and info about the Evo and this is the first time I have ever heard that. It might be user error or an isolated incident, can you show us the link I would like to read it.
 
My BB blows. I called to confirm my pre-order. Chick was like "well did you preorder?" I said yes. She says well then you should be good and that she couldn't check. I'm just like ok ?!? They won't even say what # I am I mean is it that serious ? I told her I preordered on the 14th she says u should be in the 1st or 2nd shipment and that's all the info she could give. Of course MY BB is dumbest in the country apparently. I read other posts where peoples BB's were giving more info. After reading how a few guys preorders were messed up I wanted to check mines out. Just have to wait I guess.
