I'm noticing my large changes in battery life are related to Google Now. Esp when I'm getting an iffy signal.

Des anybody know if downtown Chicago has sprint lte yet.

It's kinda off topic but no, it does not. NV is working from out to in in the Chicago market, so downtown will be last. Give it another 2-3 months.

Google wallet still not working for me.

Qbking77 reports LTE in Elgin, IL

Very interesting to see some actual live LTE in the Chicagoland area beyond NW Indiana. Everyone keep their Evos ready and their eyes peeled.

Damn that QBking can talk, that video could have been a third the size with the same info. Yeesh.

I've seen eHRPD in the NW burbs as well, though interestingly I've occasionally seen it in my condo in the city.

I was at my parents in the NW suburbs (Hoffman Estates) on Sunday and at 5pm I got some crazy speedtest results. The best was 2.21Mbps down and 0.73 up. CRAZY! I can't wait until these speeds are sustained!

Oh wait...LTE IS COMING! MUA HAHAHA.

The angle of the dangle is inversely proportional to the heat of the meat.

Come again?

I have not enountered this heat problem so far. It's gotten a little warm a couple times, similar to the OG, but nothing near alarming or affecting performance as far as I have noticed. I'm also stock, unrooted.

I've been very happy with the battery life so far. This is the best I've gotten with what I consider moderate usage. Of course my moderate may be next to nothing for many of you so YMMV.

 

I'm also digging the battery life. I'm getting over 15h a charge with mild to moderate usage (again, not a really heavy user). After the OG Evo, this is almost heavenly (along with the other heavenly features of the phone ). Interestingly, I enabled JuiceDefender Plus this morning for the first time (which I used nonstop on the OG), thinking I can squeeze out over 24 hours. If anything, my battery life was slighly worse, go figure. I guess the EvoLTE does a great job of natively turning radios on/off, etc., making JD useless.

EDIT: Oh yeah, FWIW, I have LTE/CDMA on as well as auto brightness, meaning I'm not trying hard for long battery life yet I'm still getting it. LOVE YOU EvoLTE!! :kisswink:

Mine were also both "enable"d out of the box.
