unfortunately I'm on my 3rd Evo. 1st one (launch day) started getting white spots on the screen about a month after I got it, then finally in December it just stopped charging or powering it up. Returned it to Sprint, got a replacement (hardware version 0004).

The 2nd one seemed to be working alright, but the flash wouldn't work and the GPS wasn't getting a signal. Returned it to Sprint, they fixed the flash, but the GPS was still not working correctly. Finally after 2 weeks, returned it and demanded and replacement.

3rd one now (hardware version 0003)...3 weeks, so far no problems.

Not on my original anymore. 1st one version 003 had the crack by the power button and a bright white pixel. 2nd 003 refurb had a scratched screen. On my 3rd 002 version and other then a crackling ear speaker seems to be okay. I am taking it to a Sprint repair center to see what can be done. I tried demanding a new replacement but they want me to take it in. Almost thinking the quality control on the refurbs is worse then HTC's going out the door.
