You may be onto something with the compass too. Mine is acting peculiarly as well."Which compass?"
Every app that tries to use the internal sensor.
They are all reading incorrect.
No matter which way the phone is turned, south always goes to the highest point on the screen.
:-(
Lot of faith to put in someone who was right last year, but just very recently predicted that the Evo 3D would be out before the holidays with 3.1 Ice Cream (after 3.1 was already established as the Honeycomb update number, something he apparently wanted to argue), among other things.
OTOH, the Evo 3D will be out before the holidays, a full 5 months before Thanksgiving in fact, so maybe's it's just me.
Could happen.
BTW - if you want to root, do it before the update. Then just go with the rooted update, per the All Things Root Evo subforum here.
The only way for me to fix the the folder icons defaulting back to generic, as well as voice mail indicator issue was to turn off "Fast Boot" in the Applications menu. It's a real bummer when they give you a feature that is half ass useful.... (Useless?)
(Correction ... After re-booting phone, the Icons are back to generic again and Fast Boot has no affect. Damn!)
I also noticed a slick new(?) GPS Navagation program called TeleNav GPS Navigation is now included. I really like the way it gives you three or four mapped choices of the route, and you decide which one to take instead of forcing it to "Recalculate".
...as for the other folks who have issues, try and use the "reboot" option on the power off list that pops up. also untick the fast boot option and see if that helps.

Lol kinda dumb, but the first thing I noticed was the new sound effect when adjusting the ringer volume
yea the restart option is on that pop up list.
fast boot i think it's enabled as default? it was after i received the update. perhaps turning this off will help "correct" some other issues downstream. i have deactivated fast boot.
Also, I had about 20 of my App shortcuts lose their icons, reverting to a generic Android green android guy with the appropriate text underneath. I trashed them and replaced them with fresh shortcuts, and all was well.
To All,
Before everyone put in the upgrade, did you un-root your phone first. Some are saying let the upgrade plow the root and all you have to do is re-root. If so is there an new version of pc36img.zip and where it is located for download.
I used unrevokedforeverson and the pc36img.zip from another forum but i'm getting a earlier version error when reading the pc36img. The phone is current in the s-on and is currently rooting.
Thanks
o2
same here, just got it this morening and already i have noticed a performance increaseI'm rock'n it. It is fast and battery life is awesome so far even with all the bloat.
Again as stated before go to Settings > Call > Clear Voicemail Notification to fix this.
I use only get 12 hours on froyo now I'm getting almost a full day 23 hours sometimes 24 with moderate use
i got the same problem, did you ever find a fix?Now my Evo displays the Voicemail icon in the info bar. I cannot get the symbol to turn off. I have checked my voice mail, and there are no messages. I powered down, nothing,, I did a battery pull to no avail. Very weird....As for any changes,,,nothing drastic...
