Thank you! Yep, I will probably need some help, it is all Greek to me right now as the only smart phone I have ever had is my Palm Pre. It is
nerve racking switching from a phone you really know to a phone that
I know nothing about! I just hope I like it...
If I can get the wifi teather up and running, I think I will be really happy!
Can you think of any "must have" accessories I should get so I have it
here when I get my phone next Friday?
Accessories really depend on what type of daily lifestyle you have. I do strongly recommend a cover case as it really does not feel like this phone can take a fall. I got a charger for the car too as well as a second, longer data cable that I use for the wall charger. My phone came with a 8GB memory card that I upgraded to a 16GB card too.
Other than that, my phone is everything that came with the phone.
WiFi tethering is as simple as downloading an app once your device is rooted.

I know...the Rooting is what scares me the most!
I was looking at some cases...not sure what one to get yet, I know I want a screen protector too. Any suggestions? I am not hard on my phone and honestly I am usually either just at home or the store with it. I work at home.

To be honest...the screen on the Evo is almost invincible.
I have had the phone for months, since August 2010, and have NEVER put a screen protector on it. The screen is just as nice as it was first day. It does get a bit fingerprinty if you know what I mean, where all you will see is fingerprints over the screen, but after a quick rub down with your shirt and a few huffs from the breath...it looks aokay
That's my story for the screen though...others may have other stories. I do like my friend's Epic screen protector that he got at the mall...you know, one of those booths that offers to put a screen on it, simply because it won't slip out of your hands and it provides a bit more security from people who may look over shoulders haha not perfect...but better than nothing if you know what I mean?
As for a case...I got a simple rubber case that wraps around the phone. I have dropped my phone a few times on carpet, tile, concrete, and other places and not a single dent in the phone nor has the phone experience damage internally or whatever. I got mine from our local swap meet for less than $10. It was the very first accessory I bought for the phone as it just seemed so delicate in my hands.
Really...rooting sounds harder than it actually is. Honestly, here were my steps...
1. Visit unrevoked.com
2. Download software for phone
3. Plug in phone when commanded
4. Wait (I walked away, watched tv, played games, etc.)
5. Came back 3 and a half hours later and BAM!...it was rooted I swear...it was as easy as that with unrEVOked. (Your root should NOT take you 3 and half hours though. My phone was one of a kind with this long as it took. Other people talk about it only taking 30 minutes or more or less.)
If you need any help with rooting...simply visit the "Evo 4G - All Things Root" and create a new thread. People here are nice and friendly and will NOT get on your case for being a newbie to this or for asking any question you ask. I have asked all sorts of dumb and illegal questions and moderators have kindly warned me and the worse I've ever gotten from anyone was a simple sarcastic remark that made me laugh hahaha.
If you need any other help, feel free to inbox me too. I'm not a pro, but I may be able to help with basic rooting needs such as flashing ROMs, rooting, etc. YouTube and Google are also great places to go if you would rather root manually or with unrEVOked software. Also check out my threads created by me as well as threads I have commented too...lots of great information to be found in both.

i did the same steps, watched it all happen ( dont reccomend it) and it took like 30 minutes exactly and that was with myns warm twopointwo and the radios installed right after the root completed

i like to do the rooting via command lines.. and see what each step does.
so I understand it more... i has come in handy to understand some of the other mods and what they want to be done
rooting for me.. if you can follow instructions to back a cake.. you can root.
I dont like clockwork and rom managers either...
when these fail you and you are stuck.. you have no idea what to do!

Wow, seriously on the screen? Cool. I really don't like the skins for the
screen, have one on my Pre and somtimes they get bubbles etc.
Ok, so I am gonna check out unrEVOked, sounds pretty easy I guess. Do you think I should wait a few weeks to root after I get my phone to make sure the phone works OK and is not going to give me any problems before
I root seeing that it voids the warranty and all?
Oh, and where do I find the software once I get my phone rooted for the free
wireless tether app? Will it be in the app catalog?
Thanks everyone of all the help, I am starting to feel at home here!!

Not a problem, hope you enjoy your stay
It depends on some people. Some people don't mind having an unrooted phone forever or just for a while, others, like me, love the challenge of unlocking their phone to its full potential immediately. I think it might be a good idea to wait only because you are new to Android. I had an Android phone before the Evo so I was already pretty comfortable. And while you wait on rooting, maybe you can search through some of the threads, and read some of the stuff at unrEVOked's website. Also read up on what rooting does exactly. It's pretty long to explain here in a short summary, but if you'd like, I can describe it as long as necessary. But you do make a good point...but from what I've seen...most issues with the phones that come from the factories can be seen almost immediately when turned on for the first time. Things such as the phone rebooting constantly, or the screen doesn't turn on, or something like that that would actually prevent you from being able to even root even if you wanted to. But that wouldn't be a bad idea...just take some time getting adjusted to the phone for a while then root. We're always here when you're ready to though or have any questions
Your warranty is only really voided if you let Sprint know that you have a rooted phone. So if you tell someone over the phone at Sprint or you go into a store and show them or tell them that you have a rooted phone, that's when you'll have a voided warranty. Once rooted, if you don't like the root or need to have it checked out, you can unroot it about as easy as it was to root. Truthfully, I have never unrooted my phone so I am speaking on what others told me about unrooting.
The wifi tether will be in the "app catalog" lol It'll be called "Market" when you get your phone. You simply will go into "Market", and search for "wifi tether" and there will probably be about 3-4 different wifi tethering apps. The first one will probably be a green wifi signal, and will just say "Wifi Tether"...that is the most basic tethering app that rooted Android users will use. I use one called "Barnacle" and it's the same stuff...just different name ahah.
Ah, okay, well that will be good for you Seeing as you hardly leave the house except for the store, you probably won't even need the case. Once you get the phone and hold it, you'll know if you want a case or not and if you want a screen protector. My friend's screen on his Epic was done very nicely with no bubbles. They did it at the booth in the mall for him and all he did was pay them...can't remember the price though.
But anyway, yeah. Hope I've helped in some way.

You my friend have been a HUGE help! Now I only have to wait 9 more days to get the darn phone!
I think I am going to still get one of the Seidio Innocase Active cases so I can have a prettier color then black and basically in-case I am a bit
on the clumsy side one day and drop my phone. I do some camping in the summer and it does help to have some protection.
I am not going to get a car charger right now because I think I can use the charger I have that I am using for my Palm Pre. I read that basically the chargers are the same for both phones... I hope that is right!

lol!!!! OOPS! I totally forgot that you are right...my friends have the Palm Pixi and Pre for Sprint and my charger works fine for their phones so yeah, you are good to go in that area
Maybe search around on Amazon too. I found some really great looking accessories from there. I got a very good pack from there with all sorts of things like a screen protector, car charger, wall charger, data cable, even a suction thing for the car so I could use it as a GPS!!...on Sprint's website, that alone would've cost me over $40...I paid less than $20 for the whole package lol
Haha well enjoy the wait! It shouldn't be too long. I got my Evo in less than 3 days.
Wooo-Hoooo! I could not wait! I called Sprint CS and told them the volume button is not working on my Pre and when could I get an upgrade? Well, my upgrade
is not till March 18th (next Friday) and so they are giving me an upgrade early and I may have my new EVO in white as early as tomorrow!!! (maybe Friday latest). The BEST part is that I only have to pay $124.99 instead of the $199 I would have paid at the Sprint store next week AND they are just adding it on to my monthly bill!
I am so happy and excited right now....I have got to go shopping for a new case and stuff!
So look out, I will be rooting very soon!

Finally got the EVO.
I literally took my Moment and smashed it into a hundred pieces as soon as I got the EVO....LOL
Went to Best Buy Mobile for my upgrade yesterday......and got a killer deal....
Got the new black EVO, Zagg screen protector, PT Platinum case and holster and a car charger for $99.
The hottest girl was working there and discounted the phone from $199 to $99 and threw in all the extras for free.
I am a happy man.....
I've had my EVO since August and I still love it. Once i rooted and ROMmed it was like getting a whole new phone! I have an upgrade i can use snd while the newer phones seem pretty awesome I'm not really in any hurry.
I've had my Evo for about 6 months and I SWEAR, I love it more, everyday! Of course it took me buying the extended batt early on but once batt life wasn't an issue....ownership became pure bliss. Not rooted but highly customized and did not do the 3.70 bloatware update (thanks to this forum)!!!
Wife has the iPhone 4 and IMHO the UI is childish compared to my v2.2
Just felt the unexplainable need to profess my love for this phone and the OS!
Just wanted to welcome all the noobies who received their first EVO 4G in March. Welcome to Android and the best operating system on the market. Got questions, do not hesitate to ask.
I just arrived home after picking up my new htc Evo 4G. I've been playing with this thing and 4G is fast, think I might need a seatbelt. I'm a happy camper

Evo is a hell of a device, it will be hard to really get bored with it. I always find new things to use on my Evo, and when you root... well that just opens a whole new door.

Indeed! I rooted my G1, Cliq and Vibrant and loved them even more after that.

Yes, I've been thinking about rooting. Will have to do more research but I'm sure I'll take the plunge.
Just taking time out to give the Evo all the appreciation it deserves. I recently sold my rooted Nook Color which I transformed into a tablet running 2.3. I was great... I loved browsing and the way my multiple games looked on it. It was great for someone who wanted some Tablet play but didn't want to throw all of his chips in (Yes I know the NC wasn't a tab but hey, it acted like one by the time I was done with it). But slowly but surely, I found myself coming back to my Evo...
First it was just texting and occasionally Facebook. Then I realized that some of my favorite sites just plain ran better on my Evo compared to my Nook. Soon I was using my Evo full speed again while my Nook collected dust. Ultimately I put my Nook on eBay and returned back to my Android Beast.
That experience allowed me to truly see how valuable the Evo is and what a work horse it could be. And the inclusion of the Netflix app is pure awesomeness. /rant

So I just got a new (possibly refurb) Evo through insurance and am keeping it unrooted. It feels great! I'm rockin' Launcher Pro with the scrollable dock and it seems much smoother than when I was rooted using Myn's 2.2 and Warm Z.

maybe
because you have not fully reloaded all the apps back on it.
also.. if you load a basic AOSP custom ROM.. with launcher pro...
this will also put evo on a diet by taking sense totally out... and help a lot too

I have everything reinstalled now and it still feels great. I'll probably end up rooting again down the road, but I'm just taking a little break from it
I just ran into a couple more ROMs to try, now my "to try" list is getting longer! I'm running a Gingerbread ROM with full Sense 3.0 and it's beautiful!
How many phones have been released thus far with Gingerbread and Sense 3.0? The dev community sure puts the manufacturers to shame, I'll say that much.
This phone reminds me of the htc g1.. devs still making ROMs for it long after the manufacturer stopped supporting it.
Mad props to the developer community, you folks ROCK!
What rom are you using, I recently (a month and a half ago) rooted my evo with CM7 and I havent looked back. I heard a couple people tried using the new sense but it was running slow.
i am on Myn and Team's new project Synergy... 2.3.3 with Sense 2.o and parts of 3.0.
It is in beta testing.. not yet released to public.
Synergy is the base ROM...it is designed to work on 4 different HTC phones.. so it is currently gimped down to support HTC Incredible (only has 512mb RAM). after they finish Synergy, each team member will take it to the next level for their individual devices. Of course Myn's will tailor it for the EVO.
I have it running on mine.. it is smooth as butter and solid as a rock. It is my daily driver.
Virus is one of the dev on the team.. and I think he has a ROM out based on it.
Go take a look over in XDA.

Well I wouldnt say all of that. I mean the EVO just got a whole official OS update like what? A week and half ago? I'd say the manufacturer AND especially the Dev community have kept the mighty EVO fresh. But seeing as i updated and got a new gingerbread and sense 2.1 & 3.0 ROM from MikG, I'm in ROM heaven.
Just wanted to share the good news about the latest evo upgrade. I was scared to death to upgrade because I was one of those whose phone turned into a brick during the first update. What made matters worse was hearing the horror stories from some people about owning bricks after the latest upgrade. Still, there seemed to be a preponderance of positive reports, also. I decided to take the dive. After I initiated the upgrade, I didn't touch the phone until it was finished (took quite a while so be prepared to wait. Go wifi if you can.
Boy am I glad I upgraded. My battery lasts twice as long (rough estimate). On low usage days I got three days out of a charge (extended battery). The other really cool thing is the quick start up time. It used to take around 45 seconds (guess) before I could use my phone. Now, the phone is up in a few seconds! For me, that is awesome. I didn't lose any apps that I am aware of and the phone functions smoothly. Putting the phone in vibrate is less easy though because that feature is missing from where it used to be. That is the only thing missing that I miss. I have a mute app that works very well, however and you can still go into set-up to get vibrate only. If I notice anything else I will share it. Good luck! I love this phone!

Thats good, I read on this forum that vibrant actually uses more power because it has to do more work to vibrate the whole phone compared to leaving it on loud or silence. Maybe that's why the function isn't there, that's just my Jerry Springer final thought.
Best Buy also has it for free. Amazon has it for $.01 (Both for new customers w/2 yr contract)

Sprint TV looks really good on the EVO. Netflix (once it's fixed), TV.com, Crackle, WatchESPN, HBOtoGO (if you have HBO), so many to watch

Thats a given being cautious since bricking ur phone usually means money outta pocket if u want a new one. My best advice would b trust urself n trust the site u go 2, the process is painless n the outcome is overwhelming. Ur already at the perfect site to help researching the next step is to take the leap n do it

Yup, LOVE the Evo 4G. I just switched over from Verizon (who used to have all the good phones) and an ENV 2. I Almost stayed with Verizon (the plans between verizon and Sprint would have cost me about the same since I was going to be upgrading a grandfathered plan. But the choice was easy once I saw that Best buy had the Evo 4G for free with a new 2 year Sprint plan. So grabbed one for the wife and myself. I must say, the size of the screen is a plus, I was leery about using a touchscreen keyboard, but on this phone, it just feels natural. On Verizon, I would have gotten the Samsung Gem...it was a no brainer. Now...I just need to wait for somebody to root Gingerbread...

It's been about a yr and a half and I'm still lovin the Evo
I have found my self over the past few months really looking to upgrade to one of the new dual core phones that have come out lately and was really hopping the now iPhone 4S was going to have a larger screen.
But as I've looked into other phones I can't help but see no reason to upgrade. No doubt the dual cores are a nice upgrade, but I don't see the need or want to drop $200-$300 for what seems to be a marginal upgrade in my mind.
Am I the only one feeling this way?
My only problem right now is my phone is lacking serious internal memory and I keep getting the low storage message and Sprints network is really sucking right now both 3g and 4 g wise with spotty reception and I live right around 5 towers.
But other than that I still think the Evo compares very nicely to the other devices out right now. Hopefully come June when my sprint contract is up LTE will but up for Sprint and maybe 10 MP cameras will be out and 2.0 dual core phones will be ready Just hoping.
Sorry felt like sharing.
