    Curious...does the weather on the home screen animate the same way as the HD2? I've always liked that on the HD2 but not seen it operating on the Evo.

    For those not sure what I'm talking about, see the HD2 vs Evo comparison at 6:57 of this video review.

    Thanks in advance!

    I've heard that there's a setting that you an enable full-screen animation, but I'm not sure - I've never used Android or Sense.

    Huh...you're right...missed it (maybe it looks less vibrant or lighting was different). Thanks!

    Inside your monitor.
    You just have to enable it in the settings.

    i have a pro2 and with the latest 6.5 update we get the HD2 sense ui. the weather is on the today screen and it animates.. when its lightning outside you see lightning strikes on the phone. windshield wipers when its raining.. rain drops.. clouds wen cloudy.. when its sunrise you see sun rays... its pretty slick.. i imagine the same thing will be on the evo...
