After being detained in the hands of the United States Customs, the HTC Evo 4G LTE shipments have safely made it across the pond and are now resting safely in Sprint’s warehouse.
The customs ordeal is better explained by TechCrunch’s Chris Velazco:
In case you’re new to this little shipping snafu, shipments of Sprint’s new EVO (along with those of their AT&T-based cousin, the One X) were prevented form entering the country thanks to an exclusion order handed down by the International Trade Commission. The entire convoluted story started last year, but here’s the tl;dr:
Back in July, HTC was found by ITC judge Carl Charneski to have infringed on one of Apple’s patents — specifically, it involved recognizing a particular structure within a set of data and binding it to a particular action. Sounds pretty dry, I know, but if your phone lets you directly a call a phone number by touching it in an email, you’ve seen the patent in action.
Now the wait is over and those who pre-ordered the HTC Evo 4G LTE might have the phone at their doorsteps as early as next week.

Thanks for this!
When I get texts they pop up on the screen as soon as I get them. This is bad because I have weirdo friends who send pervy messages and my parents wouldn’t understand. I don’t want one day for them to pick it up and there be one of those messages popping up. How do I get it to just go to my in box instead of popping up on the screen? It is an HTC Touch phone.
People have told me to get the htc hd2 from radioshck instead of the tmobile store. Is there really a difference? If there is please tell me what they are.
An actual DROID phone and an HTC Desire essentially the same phone? My brother is telling me the HTC Desire is not a DROID phone,, but it that is is a droid-like phone. So I guess I’m wondering, what is the difference,,,other than their marketing names (HTC Desire / DROID)
So I have been using the neon droid home screen but I don’t like that I don’t have the big clock and my weather app doesn’t work. When I click on the home button I get the following three choices:
1) Panda home
2) Home (currently using)
3) HTC Sense
When I click on HTC Secnse a message always pops up that the HTC sense has stopped unexpectedly. Can someone please help.

I am looking for cell phone with these features
touch screen, GPS, GSM, GPRS, Wifi, camera, FM receiver
I found htc wildfire to be a good one. Is there a better cell phone with above features in same price range?

I just bought the HTC Incredible. Downloaded the Handcent app for texting. When I get a text, it comes up through handcent and the messaging program that the phone comes with. Can i make it so that i only get the message once through Handcent, without deleting the original messaging app that came with the phone?
I brought my htc wildfire of ebay and it was unlocked i am on a pay monthly contract with virgin media and i havent recieved a message saying about there details for the data connection and i no longer get text messages from them to say when i have to pay my bill, i was just wondering how could i register my htc wildfire with virgin so i can get my texts through?

I have heard it is supposed to be out near June 1st. I will consider any date between now and June 8th to be the interval for when the phone might be out on Sprint shelves in the states.
Recently bought the new HTC EVO 4G LTE for Sprint, and bought a 32GB MicroSD Card as well. When I put the SD card into the phone, the phone recognizes that it is there, and can tell me how much space it has available.
I used HTC Sync Manager to put all my Playlists from iTunes to the Phone’s SD card.
The problem is that once the sync has finished, I cannot view the songs on my phone.
Is there a way to re-sync the SD Card with the phone so I can see my songs?
Thanks!!
I am going to upgrade my phone and can’t decide which phone I should get. I like all three phones.
What in God’s name can i do to watch something without all the buffering and slow loading? I killed the tasks n its still slow as fuck. I just wanna watch car accidents and the big bang theory. Jesus.
i was due for an upgrade but i want to know what the evo 4g lte will be like. Give me your opinions on what you think will be better
Battery life and faster on internet
The bookmarks on my HTC EVO 4G phone are arranged in the order in which they were created. I’d like to rearrange them in an order that is more to my liking (i.e., most used, first). Can anyone help?
I want to know which is better
I’m getting them unlocked
I’m only interested in those two only (unlocked) of course that’s all
went to sprint to check out new phones for my other two lines which are almost due for upgrades but looking at the galaxy sgs3 and htc evo lte 4g the evo look sharper and specs are about the same in both,I already have a galaxy s2 in my line which is the not the one im upgrading and love the s2 not problem so far but the round corners in the new s3 hmmm not a big fan of it,also im seeing quiet few craiglist ads people trading htc evo lte for the sgs3, just what you all think?which is a better shot?
