What's your confirmed evo accessory setup?

just chuckled at someone thinking i'm computer savvy...lol...thanks to several members of this forum i've learned to use Handbrake @ settings favorable to the Evo to convert to proper format...then it's just a drag and drop to card from there

there's a link somewhere to the whole process, but i have no idea where it is or how to direct you to it (there goes my computer savvyness..lol)

I'm still giving you props! If anyone can walk us non savvy computer people, I would surely throw a thanks out to you!

Even though I don't have my EVO yet, I was doing a little warm up and got

"Read Error, Error reading NAV packet.
[12:41:38] dvdnav: Read Error, Error reading NAV packet.Scanning title 1 of 99..." error. and it just kept going and going ...

Any ideas?
 
I'm thinking I'm going to be needing a car charger, case and screen protector and be satisfied with that for the time being...
 
....The things I plan to buy once I've finished with everything else (e.g. Lowest priority on my "to-buy list" - After I bought everything else including apps)


  • Sennheiser MM200 (just can't justify this one at the moment)

I can't justify this at the moment because I have 3 bluetooth devices including one A2DP BT stereo support headset....

I have to take this back. I found a cheap one for $104.95 with free 3 day shipping. I just have to have it. So I bought one last night at Newegg.com.

Here's the link: Newegg.com - SENNHEISER In-the-Ear Bluetooth Stereo Headset (MM200)
 
As of the moment, the things that I already have are:

  1. Extended 1750 mAh battery from (Seidio)
  2. Multi-function battery/phone charger (Sedio)
  3. Leather Case (Generic leather case from eBay)
Things that I have bought but haven't arrived yet:

  1. Zagg invisibleSHIELD (Maximum Coverage)
  2. Ultra View Screen-Protector (from eBay)
  3. Cheap 3 charger pack - AC, USB, and Car (from eBay)
  4. Sennheiser MM200 (from Newegg.com)
Things I'm planning to buy when I get the phone:

  1. Desk dock
  2. Car dock
  3. Hard case
  4. Gel case
  5. Wired hands-free stereo headsets (for times I want to conserve battery when listening to music)
Things I'm definitely gonna buy when it comes out:

  1. 3500 mAh extended battery (Seidio)
  2. A leather holster/case to fit the phone with the 3500 mAh extended battery.
  3. 32 GB Class 2 SD card.
I guess that's about it for now.

You might notice I have bought 2 screen protectors. Well I bought one at eBay first, and when I heard about ZAGG invisiSHIELD selling at 50% off, I forgot about the other one and ordered it quite on impulse.... LOL
 
i'm getting an invisible shield (hopefully best buy will have some in stock when i pick up my pre-order) and i'm looking for a case like the epik case (www.Degasis.net - Authorized Dealer of Epik Case Products for Smartphones - Blackberry Iphone Etc.). i love these cases since they barely add bulk and they don't attract dust/lint. i think the ultra-cases and amzer cases (and some of the high gloss silicone ones i've seen at verizon stores) are the same product but i'm not 100% sure.

i email them at www.epikphonecases.com and they said they will have EVO cases in less than a week.
 
Sprint Screen protector. I tried the clear and the non-reflective. The clear looks better everywhere EXCEPT sunny days. I opted to put on the non-refective for now.

Sprint HDMI Cable. Works great when I can find a TV that is HDMI 1.4 compatible. (A lot of HDMI TVs use HDMI 1.3 apparently).

Sprint combo car/home travel charger. Works awesomely. I've got it plugged into my car, has an option to plug in two devices (I charge my phone & my bluetooth off of it) and the car plug has a regular home plug built-in. Perfect travel charger.

Freedom Pro Bluetooth Keyboard. Not perfect (no repeating key function, spacebar is kinda hard to hit), but it syncs via Evo's SPP Bluetooth and also has the option to use HID bluetooth when that is developed for Android.

Sprint's Wired Headset. Great cable (braided nylon versus plastic). I'm disappointed that Android can't do voice dialing thru it though. Excellent FM radio reception.

Macrolens. I ordered a macro lens for the evo via the Cellularfactory.com. It's been almost three weeks and it still hasn't come. Reviews and pics online look awesome for the lens... just don't order from cellularfactory.
 
Much like the women I dated before I got married, I am cheap and easy...

One $3 (plus ship) case here

One $25 Sandisk 16gb card here

Luckily (for once) I was a Treo owner so I already had plenty of chargers and portable power packs that already work!
 
Bought the Sedio Spring Clip Holster. Outside of that, my EVO is completely commando.

Want to get the dock from Best Buy, need an HDMI cable, and an actual car dock for the EVO so I can put Navigation to use.
 
Well, I'm a little backwards - I'm getting the accessories first, then the EVO.




ALREADY PURCHASED:
0.67X WIDE/MACRO Magnetic mount conversion lens for mobile phones and digital cameras. (I don't know the brand, most of the label is printed in Japanese!) See the Good&EVO review. The lens works great on my Hero, so I think it will work even better on the EVO.
ZAGG Invisible Skin - Front coverage only
WILL PURCHASE SOON:
Sedio Clip Holster.
Sedio 3700mAh Extended battery and Door
I just have to wait on the phone because I need the rebate beforehand - spending $450 on a phone is just too much. So it's October for me.
 
Gtz windshield mount seido innocase w/ holster, full body invisible shield and a fm transmitter for the car BTW works flawlessly
