What happends if the USB port is damaged?
I love this phone but worry since the battery is not removable. My origanal Evo 4G USB port was damaged (due to normal use) but this type of deffect is not covered bye warranty & or store repairs bye Sprint. With the origanal EVO was at least able to purchase an external battery Charger but with this phone will not be possible.
Use the DropBox offer to keep your pics backed up, make sure your contacts are synced with Google or atleast backed up to a memory card. The better prepared for something bad happening the better off you'll be. Get TEP as well if you don't already h...

two different model numbers?
I'm in the midst of looking for a Sprint HTC Evo 4G LTE to use with Ting. Ting's whitelist* indicates the two following models are compatible:
-EVO 4G LTE Black (APX325CKT),
-EVO 4G LTE White (APX325CWH)
But... nearly every pre-owned Sprint HTC Evo 4G LTE I've found (so far) identifies the phone as model #PJ75100.
Is it possible that Sprint's version of the Evo 4G LTE has two model numbers? Or maybe the APX325 whitelist numbers listed are a different type of identifier?
Appreciate any advice or referral to help me clarify this matter before i plunk down cash on an actual phone.
thanks,

3G Voice + Data At The Same Time
I'm just curious how I can browse the web while I'm on a 3G call with no 4G or wifi? What is different about this phone that allows me to do that?
I read this and was like no it does not! So I tried it and WOW it does work! Maybe has to do with HD voice and takes up less space so can use 3G data and voice? Or upgrading towers to LTE is making the 3G side better as well? GSM has been able to ...

Battery Life
Anybody know how the battery life on this phone compares to the Evo 4G?
-Thanks
-Thanks
I just gone mine this past Monday night but I get a solid day's charge so far. I usually leave my house at 7 and get home at 6 with around 20% charge left.

CONFLICTED... EVO LTE Now or iPhone 5 Later?
I LOVE my EVO and the EVO LTE looks like a huge upgrade to my current device. For a phone that has hit its 2nd birthday since its release it is STILL a relevant phone spec wise and has stood up to my abuse over the past 24 months.
I have been eligible for an upgrade for quite a while now and my EVO is finally starting to show its age. The EVO LTE is available NOW but the leaked specs on a pending iPhone 5 or New iPhone whatever it will be marketed as look really tempting.
There are some drawbacks to Android that make me grumble but iOS is so incredibly proprietary locked down.
Ever since one of my daughters friends stole my iPod out of my truck I have dragged my feet on replacing it as my EVO with Pandora has done me well for my...

Hi there!
I too had an Evo for 18 months and just upgrade to my Evo 4G LTE this past Monday night. I also have an Samsung Galaxy S 4G on Verizon from work. I have to say that HTC has done a great job with ICS and I enjoy my Evo 4G more than the Gal...

Should I get this instead of waiting for the iPhone 5?
Long time sprint user and said I would get an iphone when sprint got them. Currently using an Evo and my contract is up. I was going to wait for the iphone 5 to come out, but the specs on this look pretty tempting. Also finally having some decent space on the phone itself is very appealing. I am super disappointed in the storage on my current evo since not all applications and be moved over to the SD. This leaves me not installing many applications that I would like to have..
I would wait for LTE to come out first to make your decision. I personally will never purchase an Apple product because I'm cheap and don't feel like paying for programs like Navigation.

Do you like the OS of the EVO?
If so, you'll likely detest the Apple.
Do you currently use Double Twist?
If not, go give ti a try for a month. It's as close to iTunes as you can get. Please remember that you'll be spending a lot of your time...

Will it have 802.11ac wireless radio?
I read that the Snapdragon S4 (MSM8960) has an 802.11ac "module available"... but does that mean that it's necessarily always included in all phones with an S4?
Got an email back from HTC basically saying "we haven't announced whether it will have 802.11ac functionality".
Batteries
I hate it that this phone and maybe others don't allow you to replace batteries. I do this often. (I have an EVO 4g and have to replace them at least once a day).
This was the deal breaker for me with iPhone. What happens when the battery wears out before the phone. I'll be looking elswhere.
Too much Mein Kamph for me....

Hope It can wireless tether
I use my phone as my main internet access at home. I love that feature.
LOL what do you think this is? A lumia or a blackberry??!?! OMFG LOLERSKATES!!! 🤨
pathetic, i hate it when people pull this nonsense and complain that their phone isn't powerful enough to handle a house.
That's technically violating the terms of Sprint service. You take a risk of Sprint cutting you off when you do that.
But yes, as shown in the feature list here, it has the mobile hotspot feature.

Mind if I nit-pick?
Why do they put the micro-USB port on the sides of a phone? Why?!!
1) Nothing more awkward, or annoying, than having the charge cord coming out the side of your phone especially when trying to talk on your phone while charging. Very awkward indeed.
2) Considering the EVO uses a kickstand, now the cord will stick straight up from the phone?!
3) Doesn't work well with universal dash/window mounts.
I really, Really, REALLY wish they would leave the port on the bottom of the phone.
I digress.

Get a right/left angle micro usb cord.

It is launching on 1900 but when iDEN is shut down, it is incorporating it into the Network Vision model, so LTE will run off 800 as well.
...
Sprint is launching LTE on 1900 MHz first. It will expand to 800 later on.
