New evo has new better screens - EVO 4G General

I just got my new evo today and I put the old one side by side and notice that the new screen was richer in color and brighter both are hardware 003 but the screen on my new one blows the old one out of the water

Since my last phone was 0003 and my new one is 0004 and I've had them both rooted, that is a good question.

Wasn't talking about 0003 brand new Evo hardware has to be downgraded in order to be rooted therefore its not rootable. But thanx for your two pennies.

If you can root it by downgrading it then it's rootable.

The most intelligent statement in this thread to date.

Huh?
Not really wanting to pour more gasoline on a smoldering fire, but...
EVO owners with a new phone have to downgrade something to get it rooted? My EVO is only 3 weeks old, has hardware version 0004, and was rooted with unrEVOked 3.21, s-off. I've flashed 5 or 6 roms with no issues and currently am using myn's warm and absolutely love it.
I couldn't tell you if it has a new or old screen, but whatever it has sure looks great to me!
Maybe there are EVOs even newer than mine that have rooting issues, so perhaps that is what I'm misunderstanding.

So are you saying the "new" screens aren't a Novatel or Epson?
adb shell
dmesg |grep -i epson
dmesg |grep -i nova
If nothing is returned from those two commands what is it then?

because the processor is twice as fast..
I notice lag with the hero that the evo doesn't wince at.
dont' get me wrong I really like the hero.. but when multiple programs arent' killed off, I notice the lag the most.
the evo is much better than the hero.. even if you add some things to it.
now if you took the evo's processor and put it in hero.. i might be inclinded to
argue, that ti's debatable which is better.
I'm due for an upgrade in October and it's a toss up between the Evo and the Epic...

the legend isn't coming, it was a rumor. i too hope we get some different android phones by x-mas. im due for my upgrade nov 1st.
I'm wondering when/if Sprint is gonna pit out any more 3g phones. 4th is nice, but is not in my area. Although I 'm close enough to a 4g area that if I get an evo i'll get charged the extra $10 a month.

But really, EVO slider tablet? Damn sick.
In all honesty, when I read that article I went from to :| to X(
Okay guys, we had a run with our top of the line phone. Kills me that we're about to be outed by the "EVO 2". Wasn't expecting a predecessor so quickly.
Lastly, I was at a public event here in Las Vegas, Nevada today called Aviation Nation where the US air force does a little bit of showing off. Well anyways, I saw a surprising amount of EVO's there, at least 6. Versus 4 or 5 iPhone 4's.
What can I say? Phones gone particularly mainstream.

While you're at it, tell them never to release the WiMax 2 Standard and to be sure that all of the newer version of Android 2.3/3/4/5 and so on will work on the HTC Evo.
Also, get Steve Jobs on the line and have Apple file for bankruptcy.

Where does it say the screen would be 3.7 inches? I looked over the article and application, and neither mentions any specs, let alone screen size, unless I'm just blind, of course.

The Desire Z/G2 is 3.7". It also might be a Sprint version of the Merge coming to VZW. That one has a 3.8" screen. I'm just going by the leaked pic of the Knight/Speedy from a couple weeks back. It was noticeably smaller than the EVO.
Do you think it'll be more like shift or evo?
I hope it'll be evo size with full slide out tilting keyboard like touch pro2. I can deal with a little more thickness. But I don't think I want something I can't fit in my pants pocket.

Now that the Nexus has been released what is everything that we should be looking forward to seeing on our Epics because of it?
Standby I know a few of us are already working on it seeing what can be done
I was fooling around with one today at Sprint store. It's sloooow compared to the hybrid Frog in the latest Bonsai beta rom. Maybe once it gets fixed it will work better.
Sent from Bonsai 7.1.3.1
Yeah, my wife picked one up today. Its a nice phone but at the moment I still like my (rooted) Epic better. However once development for it gets rolling I'm sure it will be a whole different story. Stock for stock the Nexus is leaps ahead though.

I was in a sprint stoe Saturday and the mployee told me I'm eligible for an upgrade before june 30th an then again starting october 1st. Is the nexus more advanced enough to ditch the epic or should I wait for somthing like the evo 3d , galaxy s2 , or whatever comes out after those?

It is pure google and will be updated by google

no, i wouldnt. the fact that its pure google will make the updates roll out way quicker. and the screen is 4.0 inches. the processor is the same, but it comes preloaded with gingerbread.
the way i see it, i like my screen just the way it is. super amoled isnt that much diff from super amoled plus. the curved glass is just a gimmick. and it doesnt need to be that huge. plus i like the keyboard on our phones. ive had an all touch phone before and it drives me nuts.
i guess its just a matter of opinion. im sticking with the epic tho.

No, I totally understand. I appreciate all the work that you guys do. I was just wondering if anyone knows what Epic users have to look forward to at this point. I know once the devs start tearing it apart it will probably reveal even more possibilities but at this moment I am just looking for any information that I can get my eyes on of what's down the road for us. Will this give us a chance at having a pure AOSP thats not CM7?

Yep, I'm laying some -root- tonight!!!!!

Yes we understand your waiting for root like the rest of us.
I just recieved a new shift about 3 hours ago because i dropped mine and im stuck without root also, and as a dev its horrible.
but honestly no real need to make a new thread about it

I'm sorry for your loss..
I have a 2 year old terror for a son, that is constantly playing with my phone. The blue htc case has been the best purchase i have made in a long time. It definitely beefs up the phone enough to withsatnd majority of his punishment. He did manage to break something because my keyboard lights rarely work... But thats nothing compared to if he would crack my screen... Come on root so i can get a new phone with working keyboard lights.

/\ hey somebody in the same boat as me... My keyboard and physical button lights haven't worked in months. Small price to pay to keep root.

We all feel your pain . Guess it's going to be a minute before your able to do anything for the community . Dammm you HTC .
you could always try a different Launcher so that it will look different...
If you're lookin for a sense 3.0 like lockescreen try Agile Lock from the market, been using it on my evo for a week or so and loving it. In order to get all the functionality out of it you'll have to download 4 or 5 apps from within the agile lock app. They're all in Japenese or Chinese, can't read either so not sure which language it actually is, but just download and install them then you can delete them. Once the app is unlocked it functions almost just like the 3.0 lockscreen.

I didn't care if anyone responded. Sorry for eating valuable forum space in the shift forum. When root comes back around, this thread will be pointless. Feel free to delete it. But the other person was right. This is the gloom thread. No root for the old hags phone makes me sad. If jock itch makes you sad, tell us about them red balls.
As far as children, I think my 15 y.o. looked at some pR0n on my shift the other day. I spent hours deciding how to sterilize it, in the event that he diddled himself, without blitzing the circuits. My first impulse was to soak it in bleach for a day or two. How's that for some FML?????

Ah crap didn't realize there was no root for 2.3.3 yet. Had to have the wife's phone replaced. This blows

umm...
this will probably sound really stupid, so just remember that I come from the easy-to-root epic forum.
I assume it's not possible to RUU back to 2.2, root, unlock, then flash gingerbread?
I guess my question really is, why doesn't this method work?
(researching for my girlfriends phone...)

Because the RUU checks the hboot and says you've got the wrong one and fails.

I know your saying is correct, but if it is simply just that, how come with revolutionary on other phones you can run a RUU and it'll reset the phone but keep s-off? Or is it because revolutionary just does something crazy?

Dunno. I may be wrong in the above too. I've been lucky enough to keep my root and haven't actually been paying much attention to the problem of rooting the 2.3 OTA.
