Sprint outs EVO 4G and Hero updates, EVO framerate cap might be solved -- Engadget

 

[Raekwon]

Ive been following the thread about the update that is supposed to be released today and it says nothing about changing the 30fps cap.

HTC EVO 4G:9/22 - HTC Evo Maintenance Release

2 fixes that mean absolutely nothing to me. Im glad for those of you that use gmail and the calendar but I am now officially unexcited about this update. BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO.

 

[firechicken]

Funny how sprints official notice mentions nothing about FPS cap fix.

"Fixes:
Calendar event edit issue
Multiple Gmail Account sync"

 

[ramonini]

well if you go to sprint website it will show you the new update but we still cant get it ..

why don't you wait to actually download the update before making such statements?

For what it's worth, they say if you rooted via the Unrevoked method, that root should be durable, no?

that's what I was wondering. I just rooted with Unrevoked 3.21 the other day. I did not flash another rom, I am still completely stock. The only reason I rooted was to run wireless tether. Since I'm still on the stock rom, I should be ok to get the update correct?

Good news here:

Sprint Hero also is getting an update; Evo 4G 30FPS cap removal confirmed | Android Central

 

[brushrop03]

Think its suppose to raise the cap to 53

What's everyone clicking? Firmware Update or HTC Software Update? I clicked Firmware update and it's been sitting at the "checking please wait" screen for 3-4 minutes.

"Such statements? Please enlighten me. What statements has the OP made that are in any way inaccurate?

There is nothing in the "Official" Sprint release (cited) that mentions anything other than:

-Calendar event edit issue
-Multiple Gmail account sync

However, we all probably know by now that the truly critical changes that come with these OTA updates are neither touted nor discussed. Free tethering is but a distant memory for most. Update at your own risk. I'm with Raekwon on this one. My Evo is not broken and I have no intention of fixing it!!

About time. My mom's budget Android Samsung Intercept runs fps2d at 61fps with 3.1StD.

you could at least click on the links we supplied, or wait for the actual update to hit

Ive been following the thread about the update that is supposed to be released today

But yet felt the need to start another pointless thread about something already being discussed in that thread...

software update

hmm.. we'll see i guess..

 

[takirb]

software update

Sure it's not firmware?

From Engadget's site - "Last time we checked in on this problem, HTC had said that the EVO 4G's 30fps cap on video output simply couldn't be increased -- but it seems the latest firmware update might prove otherwise"

 

[tmwilsoniv]

I did follow the supplied links. So what?
My question was regarding the OP and its link to the Sprint release, and your apparent discomfort with it. If Sprint is a bad source for information regarding Sprint phones, so be it.

I would suggest that rather than ridicule a poster for accurately interpreting a Sprint Official Release, you respectfully explain that Sprint is not a reliable source of information regarding Sprint phones, and tell us who is... with a smile!

 

[shadiguy1]

nothing in philly area

 

[brushrop03]

Mmm i'll wait for a custom rom with the update...

What info from Sprint was unreliable or bad?

FYI...

Just called Sprint tech support and complained about my GPS rebooting and he said he was going to push me the new update. He asked that I power off my phone and wait 2 minutes. Did that and now my phone is downloading something. The sync icon at the top of the phone has been going for the past 5 mins or so.

The rep even called me back a few minutes later on the home phone to confirm I was getting an update.
