  1. Liked for the last sentence. I think we're definitely in the minority with that feeling.

    No 4g option?

    Nothing now because I am not connected to the LTE network. It just shows Sprint as my provider and a section for IP address which I assume will be populated once I am connected to LTE

    I'm going to leave mine on for awhile based on the reports of others. Although I probably won't be a good test because I always plug in while I'm in the office or in the car so my battery experience won't be accurate.

    HTC EVO 4G LTE

    I haven't used it yet but what would annoy me was when I got a call while using navigation and the NAV voice would play in my earpiece while the person calling me was talking. I wonder if that's fixed. I'll have to try it. **EDIT** Does the EVOLTE have native screenshot capability? I've been rooted for so long I don't know what people who aren't rooted are doing for screenshots these days.
  5. Took awhile but I am finally the owner of a shiny new Evo 4G LTE! This is a sweet phone. Soooo light compared to my OG Evo and it's a feather compared to my coworkers 3D.
  6. I've had nothing but positive experiences with purchasing my phones from BB. Sometimes the activation process takes awhile but other than that it's been good Sent from the Negative Zone using the Ultimate Nullifier
  7. Inside Sprint Now is reporting that Sprint is sending free Gel Cases to all pre-order customers as a small consolation for the delay. http://insidesprintn...htc-evo-4g-lte/ **EDIT** Just called my BB and my phone is ready for pickup. On the way there now. I'm so geeked right now!

    Not sure I understand your question. You can turn on the LTE radio if you want but all it will do is hunt for a signal and burn battery.
  9. In defense of thirdcoast, he simply stated that he has had no dropped calls. He didn't mention anything about data connectivity and all the posted links were reference a data connectivity issue not voice calls. No, one person's experience does not negate the experience of a group of others, but in the same manner the vocal group of those with problems doesn't negate the experience of the group who are having no problems. thirdcoast's lack of issues with dropped calls is also a truthful, factual occurence, in his context. Once the new Galaxy comes out we'll know soon enough if it is really the device it's purported to be. I am excited to see it but I wish I could get a more concrete idea of when it is expected to launch. I am torn between the new Evo and the new Galaxy.
  10. I wish more people could understand this. I see so many comments on other blogs about how Sprint lied and never delivered on their promise to bring Wimax to whatever part of the country they happen to occupy. Yet, every promo or ad I ever saw regarding 4G from Sprint or any other carrier always said something to the effect of "4G speeds not guaranteed. 4G is not available everywhere."
  11. Congrats! It looks huge in that picture. I like that.
  12. Even though I'm not getting mime until BB has them in stock I'm genuinely happy to hear you guys are getting yours. I'm looking forward to everyone's comments on theirs. Sent from the Negative Zone using the Ultimate Nullifier
  13. I just noticed that one of the users listed at the bottom of the main page is "Google". Man, that guy is everywhere!

  15. It's not hard to understand how these guys do it. When you combine time pressure from an employer with the fearlessness and feeling of invulnerability of some then you can see it. I worked in the printing industry for years and you would see older guys missing fingers from bypassing safety measures on cutting and printing machines in order to get something done faster. Machine manufacturers go through design hoops to create safety measures that cannot be bypassed just to prevent this from happening. If it takes a guy 30 or more extra minutes to climb a tower because he has to unhook/tie-off every few feet and his employer is pressuring him to get more done in a given day where do you think he is going to try to cut time? The only way this changes is if guys are at risk of losing their jobs if they ignore safety measures. The only way that happens is if corporations face costs when their employees ignore safety measure. At least the tower guys are getting paid... http://youtu.be/JEtc5JPmyUM
  16. The screenshot says that a shipping label was created on May 22. Shipped via 2nd Day Air would put arrival on May 24. That's Thursday by my calendar. The phrasing that I think keeps getting missed here is "We will do our best". I don't see that as a promise or commitment to a certain day. I see it as they will do their best, BUT, there is a chance that they will miss that date.

    HTC EVO 4G LTE

    HTC One X Stress Test. This is a video of the One X being tumbled in a dryer at an event in Malaysia. You can see the screen is on doesn't appear to be damaged in any way. According to the video the device has been tumbling for hours. As I understand it, the EVO LTE and the One X are essentially the same device so perhaps we can assume similar durability for the EVO.
  20. There is nothing on the May 2012 map for the Philly area.

    HTC EVO 4G LTE

    I know this is the HTC thread but I just read that Motorola is now facing a ban due to Microsoft patent complaints. I guess this is the new way of doing business now. Sent from the Negative Zone using the Ultimate Nullifier
