  1. You must have a few devices no longer in use that can be sold to secure most of the funds needed. Whatever you do though, do not even bother with the Sprint Buyback. My ElTEvo was worth almost nothing.
  2. At my work there is a Sprint accepted PCS only tower in the shopping center across the street. Using my Ele Evo in the elevators there's no difference in call performance. Using my work provided BB on Verizon the calls always drop.
  3. If you are unsure whether you are on HD Voice or not, you probably are not. It is a very clear difference in call quality. If anyone has used VIber VoIP (wifi) calls it the voice quality sounds similar to that, as both are wideband (HD).

    USB Debugging is in the hidden developer menu. Settings -> About -> Software information -> More -> Click Build Number 5 times. This will give you the Developer Options menu above Activate this device in the Settings.

    It feels like a new phone again. I cannot express how much i love the quick settings menu on the notification bar. Makes changing settings while in app possible without exiting the app. In addition the multi tasking has improved in 4.3. When i switch to a previously opened app it does not need to re-load.

    Just installed. I did the HTC Backup from the settings menu. It's coming in clutch. It just uses your Dropbox for cloud backup. Sent from my Nexus 10 using Tapatalk 2

    i did the htc sync manager backup before running the RUU and a restore after. Messages, phone history, and contacts seemed to restore well, in addition to my background. Overall my phone has been running much better with 4.3. Sense has only crashed once since the update whereas before the update it would crash multiple times each day.

    If you press the home button from a non default home screen, it will take you to the default screen. This happened even in 4.1. Therefore, from within an app opened from a non default home screen, pressing the home button twice will take you to the default home screen. I would not call this a bug, instead increased functionality. In addition anyone having an issue with 1x connecting to data. Signal Check will show a 1x connection only, but no data, whereas in the same location as before the 4.3 update, 1x would connect to data no problem.
  10. My parents taught me that if you are going hunting with 1 bullet, make sure you have a good shot. Meaning to nitpick about the lack of svdo/svlte is like winning the gold medal, but being pissed that the medal is too heavy around your neck.

    It's an RUU at 826Mb. I installed it. Sense 5.0 is a nice overlay over 4.3. Very much like the HTC One pre kit kat as expected. So far so good. New radio to test though.

    Yes cards are setup, but Tap and Pay stills says not available.
  15. Considering people have still not received the update could very well be indicative of more than normal error reports with ZVA. In that case they would fix the problems and then send out an updated version of the update.
  16. How else are u supposed to measure e-penis?
  17. And I think i remember reading that those who wanted to switch over from a 2 yr contract with device subsidy would have to pay $15 per month until their contract would have ended if they switch to Framily. This only further backs your point.
  18. Are you certain it is not just an isolated sector? I have gotten great speeds in the 20-30 DL range and then driven 40 minutes south with the same or better LTE signal strength, signalcheck confirmed, and gotten around 1-2 DL. That is not the phone, surely the network. There is another site nearby my work that drops down to 1-2 DL when the signal strength is worse than -95 on signalcheck for an HTC One, S3, Note 2, and my Evo.
  19. In California we are all waiting for the winter to start. I bought a season pass to Tahoe, but with no new snow and spring like temperatures I do not know if I will get to use it this season.

    Evo LTE 3g issues

    Just a shot in the dark but try reprovisioning the device. ##72786# from the dialer.
  21. I have been getting HD Voice with a friend here in the bay who owns a G2 and it sounds amazing. FYI it doesn't always connect the first call. I will be connected for a few seconds and the call will go silentt w/o HD. Then I hang up and call back and HD will be engaged. Not sure if this is just a glitch between phones or the network here in the bay. Only an observation at this point.
  22. Oh the over compensators... Always trying to make up for a lack of size with a big ass truck/more 4g's than anyone else.

    I decided that I'm going to hold off on this batch of phones and after watching a couple tear down videos and I saw how simple it is I decided to pull the trigger. Only adhesive that I found is on the lower back cover and on the back of the battery. Neither seemed to be an issue with re-assembly. Else wise a pry tool, torx screwdriver, and tweezers got the job done.
