Has anyone noticed any changes with the hardware from the launch date to today? I know the original EVO had a screen change within 3-4 months of its release. My EVO LTE says its hardware version is 0003. Anyone found anything different on the street?

I got mine replaced through Best Buy, and they gave me a brand new phone to replace my pre-order. It's HW V 0003

 

What software version came with that new phone?

Did you get a loaner phone? If so, what kind? How long did it take to replace?

@themuffinman - We just got a software update right? So would that have changed? If not, i'm happy to look it up.

 

Yeah we just got a new OTA but I wanted to know what was on there when you took it out the box. I am going to pic up my replacement today and I am keeping my fingers crossed that by some miracle its on the older firmware so I can s-off it once I get it.

The odd thing, and maybe I changed this without realizing it, but... On my new phone, the battery life wasn't nearly as good. Turns out, it wasn't turning Wi-Fi off over night in sleep mode and the Wi-Fi was set for "best Experience", so the battery was steady draining all night. Once I switched back, all was right in Evo land again.

Yep the idiots at HTC did that making the WiFi turn off at midnight and back on a 7.. Just one the very many things fixed in aftermarket roms.

Actually, I like this. If I happen to be up, it connects quickly enough, and I sure appreciate the impact is has on the battery.

I agree 100%. The battery it saves is amazing and why do I need Wifi if I'm not using my phone? Also you can plug your phone in to charge and it disables the battery save feature of disabling Wifi.

      Official Tmobile-Sprint merger discussion thread

      By iansltx · Posted

      Looks like another T-Mobile 5G bump happened over the past week and a half, maybe less: n41 carriers are now 90+100 MHz, up from 80+100 (which in turn is up from 40+100 back in early March). This is on top of the new n25 carrier recently. As part of this, it looks like T-Mobile is starting to prefer n25+n41 2CA even when pushing data, rather than having higher levels of CA that would hit higher peak speeds; at least indoors I need to force n41-only if I want to see the full 190 MHz there. To be fair the speeds are plenty quick with that amount of spectrum, and I'm sure they're load balancing, and my guess is this is a little better for battery life? With this expansion, they're now at 10x10+10x10 n25, 15x15 n71, 100+90 n41, for a total of 260 MHz (including FD uplink) of deployed NR here, up from 250 MHz a week ago, 230 MHz two weeks ago, and 190 MHz six months ago. VZW is at 140 MHz minus mmW, 170 if you count n2 DSS. AT&T is at 150 MHz (80+40 n77, 15x15 n5), 210 MHz I think if you count n2 and n66 DSS (guessing they're still running those). With this level of spectrum they should be able to continue offering home internet wherever. Guessing this is the last upgrade they can make before they need to throw new equipment on sites for C-Band. At this rate I figure that'll happen next year on a few dozen high-traffic sites.

      My wife has a Pixel 8 Pro and has no complaints. I have an S22U and I get slightly better signal than her but 99.9% of the time, its not noticeable.

      My favorite is the nexus 6.  Love the form factor also.

      Well it's the newest Pixel, so I'm guessing at least a few of us are out there, myself included! I have had almost every Google phone since the Nexus 4. The Nexus 5 might be my all-time favorite for what it was at the time, but I love my Pixel 8. No real drawbacks for me, but I can't give a personal comparison to the S22.
