    Malware discussion

I doubt the app is a battery hog unless you are allowing the app to send/receive...

    HTC EVO 4G 2012 Phone

    I'm curious about whether the EVO that comes after the 3D will have it set up so you can utilize CDMA/LTE/GSM. Or is this even possible?

    Dropped EVO From Hip Level

    I tried to remove my phone from the holster with one hand. The EVO fell from my hand in slow motion, she hit the carpeted floor then bounced onto the opening of a bottom metal shelf. Not a scratch, and I'm using the Seidio Innocase II.
