Review: HTC Evo 4G

What is the best app to use for FREE tethering for my beautiful, wonderful, amazing Evo? Thanks! Sorry I'm just so in love with my Evo!!

I finally got the EVO and have few questions on it.
a) Any recommendation on hard case which will protect the phone.
b)What extra battery to get as the original battery is not as good.
c)What apps to root to kill and extend the battery life longer.

Hello friends...

My last cell phone was a Motorola brick, so i am starting out from scratch. My only two "must have apps" is FM radio, and the ability to video conference (with or with out Wi-Fi, but I would rather do it with 4G).

My friend has a Apple iPhone4. I hear that a app called Tango can cross platforms. Are other apps around that will let me video conference with my iPhone4 friend?

My search has narrowed to the HTC EVO 4G and the HTC My Touch 4G. I do not know which to choose. All other things being equal I guess I want a bigger screen, however, I do not want to or rarely will watch TV and movies on my smartphone. I will use the screen for video conference.

I would like to create a hot spot for my self if need be (...

I am a new EVO owner and I was just wondering am I wasting my time installing Advanced Task Killer on my EVO? The reason I ask is b/c when I was with Verizon wireless I had the Motorola DROID X and the Samsung Fascinate and the Verizon rep I dealt with informed me that if I didn't have Advanced Task Killer my smartphone would be really slow. When I purchased my EVO last night the Sprint sales rep I dealt with told me not to install Advanced Task Killer on my EVO or it will dramatically slow it down, whats the deal here? Also how do I install swype texting on my EVO I found a video on youtube that walks you through the process but when I get to where it is time to install the swype file it says that it cannot install it. If any of you fellow ...

Can anyone give me some sound advice as to which phone is better. I currently have T-Mobile and its time for an upgrade. Half of me wants to go ahead and get the MyTouch 4G, but at the same time the EVO is really tempting. The specs look almost identical for both phones. Can anyone fill me in on which phone is the 'Best Buy' overall?

How do you sync internet explorer favorites and notes(outlook and one note) to EVO?

I am a Sprint Premiere Customer, and I have the top of the top plan, and it's clearly stated as "EVERYTHING"... that I would never need to pay for anything extra.

I currently am paying over $129 for a "Everything Data" plan that includes unlimited data

You state that the $10.00 Premium Data add-on is for the HTC EVO only.. but isn't the name of my plan the "Everything Data"? Everything implies "ALL INCLUDED", thus any additional add-on should be on Sprint.

I'm always on the lookout for high-quality, free apps. Share and share alike.

Vlingo--voice control that works far better than what's built into the phone

TuneIn Radio--listen to radio stations from almost every major city across the globe (excluding those owned by Clear channel)--awesome

.Podkast.-excellent podcast portal

Watchdog Lite--what Advanced Task Killer should be but isn't

I have been considering getting the EVO but didn't liked its not so good battery life.
Did the battery life improved with the 2.2 update or no ??

If not whats the brand recommended for long battery life..

any football fans there? just go to the site "tvmov.net" and let your evo catch up to it but you can watch sunday nfl games

and nascar as well

...well, convince me!

Purchased a "3500 mAh" battery on Ebay from an Asian vendor. Cost about 11 bucks with shipping and it also had a replacement back. The battery is roughly twice the thickness of the stock battery. While I have no way of testing it for capacity I have not had an issue with the phone running of of battery during the day. I can check some mail and talk for an hour or so, do some browsing etc. Used to be that I would be close to empty at the end of a day.

I like the size of the phone better with the battery and back. Phone was too thin before now it is rounder in the back. A more natural shape and you don't have to worry about scratching the camera if you set the phone down.

Didn't use the phone much today but its been on f...

Does anyone know if there is a way or app, to give email a seperate tone from sms and phoe ringtones? It seems like when you set notification sounds it doe the same for sms and e-mail. Otherwise great device so far.

Quick question, is there any way to increase the vibration when in the vibrate mode?
I use this phone mostly for business purposes, and 99% of the time i have in vibrate mode, but it is just not strong enough. This might be a show stopper for me...

Thanks!

Ok, I have a few questions, anyways first one is...

I just recieved my white evo from asurion bc I lost it on the 9th of august, it was brand new in the box and it had 2.2 pre-installed. My question is....did the 2.2 affect the battery life, ive read alot and ppl stating it does affect battery life? I was also thinking about getting an extended battery(like 2400-3500)but does your phone get hot if your on it for awhile or while its charging? Bc my battery life gets me about 5-6 hours!

Should I use an app killer? I had advanced task killer but there was no difference in battery life!!

What is the best app killer?

What are the best apps for the evo?

What is a good LIVE wallpaper app and regular background app that is free? I al...
