HTC EVO 4G LTE Tips & Tricks

 

Holding down the power button for ~10 seconds does the trick.

 

I was really paranoid about the built in battery but so far (knock on wood), I have had no problems, and I love the slimmer cleaner build of the phone.

 

The built in battery is the one thing that made me hesitate before buying this phone. After having the LTEvo I'm glad I bought it. The power button mash works just as well as removing the battery on my OG Evo. And the battery life is fantastic too. I know that last part is kinda irrelevant, but I used to use an external charger so the native battery made me nervous.

 

I still am paranoid, just can't shake it and can't do anything about it now. I sent a half drunken email to HTC to complain about it. The wording was actually very nice.

 

I can mess up a sunrise.

I've had ample occasion to use the 10 second power mash to get my phone back - it works for me.

 

Me too. Plus, now I don't need to remove the case to hard reset the phone.

 

I only had to do it once when I had a bad flash and an image zip on the sdcard which rendered me dead in the water until I just pulled the card and deleted the zip. It worked fine.

I've gone for weeks at a a time without even rebooting this phone. HTC really hit the nail on the head this time.

 

I have to say I made the right choice. I think this is the best phone out there right now, and I dont see the iphone beating it.

 

Coming from two previous Samsung Android phones and having to pull the battery many times a week i was a little nervous but i really haven't the need to do that with the EVO LTE. I have done it when i was first unlocking/rooting my phone but haven't had the need otherwise.
