Sprint store Rep also told me we should get 4g out here buy the end of the year....last year.
Doesn't surprise me, OP, since the EVO 3D was supposed to come out first week of June.
omg...obviously we are getting it in 30 days or so...that's when the 3rd quarter begins...guess what else just in, the sensation and evo 3d are rumored to be released in the next 60 days :0
Thanks for the headsup.

What's so obvious? Also, wouldn't the 3rd quarter begin at the half way point of the year, i.e. the 1st of July?

Are we talking fiscal quarter or calendar quarter? lol j/k
Htc stated a couple of weeks ago that the evo would get an update to 2.3 before the end of june.

lol ...and about the july 1st thing, yes your right but i doubt for instance a company would go, well here we have a new phone were going to release in the summer and release it on the last day like september 23rd or whatever it is...it's just not practical. This is a joke quite honestly with the least amount of flame intended...

Haven't heard anything on my end either, probably won't get an "Official" notice of it until 1-2 weeks before the OTA's are scheduled to start. And the Evo 3D and View are still listed as "Spring", for whatever that's worth. It seems a bit random which devices we get firm dates for months in advance and which are reserved for a couple of weeks, but it seems Sprint's playing it close to the vest on all of the various EVOs at the moment.
Hopeful?
I REALLY hope they aren't teasing us with these rumors... Sometimes it feels like they all just want to keep us on the edge of our seat.

I actually love how Google is keeping the surprise element of Gingerbread intact without any real leaks. I hope they don't allow a single substantial leak until the day of ota updating since I HATE feeling like a crack addicted donkey following a dangling carrot
We better get used to less updates anyways and be happy with our N1's as is without needing updates to keep us happy. Andy himself was saying that Android will eventually be just a once a year update: http://www.androidguys.com/2010/06/01/andy-rubin-android-updates-year/

Fixed.
The line just got cut a few days ago, wait a week until they start testing the n1 branch for it to leak.
if i recall correctly the froyo rom leaks didnt start until after froyo was announced.
by that logic im fairly sure it will take a few weeks to leak (if google follows the same weird update pattern it did last time.)
im fairly sure the nexus one branch has been in development for a while now, because the OS is finalized on the nexus (feature set wise). after the announcement the major optimization is done, and thats usually why there are several leaked copies of slightly different semi-final builds.
I'm not gonna get into it again(I already did during froyo release), but the android line isn't developed FOR the n1, it's developed primarily WITH the n1.
There's nothing N1 specific when they are doing feature sets. The Google Phone team does have an early heads up, but so does Moto, and Samsung, and just about all the big boys in the OHA.

That's from the people who are on Epic #4 or higher. Thank you come again.
Seriously I guess it must be the invisible shield I put on my screen that protects my phone from me constant dropping it on the ground
or maybe I was just lucky and got a perfect unit
Did they give you a refurbished after your first one?
Same my phone looks NEW shine it 3x a day but just out of curiosity if i have the 7$ protection plan from sprint how can i get a new phone without having to pay the 100$ deductible?
No they always get you a refurbished one unless you are on your first 30 days of purchase with the phone
LOL...figures they're so stupid -_-

Yes, but its also possible for you to be within 30 days and some stores give you a refurbished and treat is as new...it happened before..
And yes after 30 days you get refurbished usually BUT there are those lucky who get a brand new one.

That is absolutely not true. I am on Sero Premium, which requires apparently some special activation process that my sprint store didn't know about. 3 TEP replacements in a week all with "non functional radios" (ie they didn't activate it correctly), all refurbs. Finally they figured it out and just replaced the screen on my original epic with parts cannibalized from one of my 3 TEP replacements.
My first replacement was new dunno Whuts gonna happen this time I. Don't want a broke down ****box LOL I honestly want to trade it for an evo

Other than possibly frying the nand memory with a bad odin flash, or running it over what do you guys do to your phones? I work in a computer shop/recycling center and I carry my phone in my pocket. I run into stuff, hit it with 37in crts, drop it in open computer cases out of my shirt pocket and the drop to the concete only nicked the corner otherwise its perfect.

Mine has been dropped, a lot, it's gotten more than one accidental boot heel, I've even dropped it in a puddle. This, as well as feverishly hacking it... and, as annoyed as I am regarding froyo.. I must say this phone has held up very very well.

okay, introduce something new, hmm, not 4g lmaoooo, the reason being they want to get it out asap lmfao...carrying on...no front facing camera, same 1 ghz snapdragon that was used on the evo just updated, whipdy doo, after 8 months of technology we use the same clocked speed processor. back camera is lower than what people consider the standard for top smartphones now, im sorry i can keep going, this is an epic fail, disagree if you'd like but of course this is only my opinion. Granted i'll still see it in person but cmon man, ruined my night...
and one more thing, what the hell was the point of david blaine!
I agree this did not deserve its own event its like a child of a samsung moment and a nintendo ds...LAME
Ya, sprint really dropped the ball on this release. So they are marketing to the 8 yr olds that want a Nintendo DS phone? Booo
I agree...what a freaking joke. I was really not expecting that.
This is bad. In a moment people were expecting to fail by being an iPhone, or stupid tablet... Sprint exceeded all expectation, and single handedly facilitated millions of facepalms across America.
Wait for another industry first. "The only phone to sell a whopping 0 units."
I hate being mean... but... this was just... indescribably made of, filled with, and covered in a hard candy shell of fail.

Yep... I mean... it's a cool idea... and yeah, maybe an industry first... But did it really require such a big, over-hyped event?
No.
Really disappointing.
Not gonna lie, just turned on 4g hoping it would connect and when everyone realized they had 4g, Sprint would say "Did you guys really think we would leave you with that p.o.s.? Happy new year, here's froyo for Epic and Gingerbread for Evo as well!"
Turns out... they really did just leave us with that p.o.s.
MWC they had better own... or I have a feeling they are losing customers.

I still have mine since launch day. Never exchanged it. Scratches on the side and kick stand, with my Seidio 3500 extended battery I got a month later. This bad ***** can last another year, and that's when I'll get a divorce and switch to a quad core (hopefully) phone.

I still have mine from launch day. I dropped it in my dog's water bowl last month, and at first I thought it survived unscathed, but now it's doing all kinds of weird crap (GPS issues, not fun when I needed it on a trip last weekend; music skips or sometimes the voice search window pops up during playback for no reason; etc etc). No amount of wiping or different ROMs seems to help, so I'm guessing something got fried in the process.
So in other words, it may be time to make a claim. I'll miss the old bag, we've been through so much together *tear*.
I still have my launch day EVO. My goodness this was the best phone I have ever had in my life! I had a blackberry before this phone so some of you guys must know the hell we all go with when one has a blackberry.

I've also had mine since launch day. It made me look like such a badass when summer ended and I went back to high school. ****, it still does. Now there's just many more thunderbolts and incredibles that try to compete with me, but they fail.
Anyway I think the EVO 3D looks awesome but I think ill just skip this generation of EVO because the original has been so good to me and I just can't drop it a year later.
Just imagine how sick the new EVO will be in a years time.
my "launch day" evolution went for a swim about 2 months in my replacement evo has been a solid device. can't believe its been a year already.
Considering how long the original Evo has been around, can anyone speculate on how much longer Sprint will be carrying their model around? I suspect at least until the end of 2011 and maybe even April 2012! It is that good with lots of supported accessories.
Plus it's definitely one of the Sprint's top 4-5 bestsellers still after a year.
Imo it will be selling more now due to the price drop alot of people dont go for the latest and greatest phone. The evo is now a mid range priced phone. It still has life left. Unless sprint does something like switch to lte i suspect that it will be around for at least 3 to 4 more years.
Sent from my EVO 4G using Tapatalk
look at the other phones that sprint is still selling such as the HTC Touch Pro 2 The Hero and more IMO the EVO will be around for a long time to come and it will probably be cheaper
Yeah it will stick around for awhile. I give it 7 months tops but hey, maybe longer.
Sent from my BEASTO 3D using XDA Premium App
Nobody will know the answer to your question.
I think it will be around for a bit. Still a very good phone. No easy insurance upgrades to that 3D no time soon I think...rofl.
A phone like the EVO 4G should stick around for another year or 2 I say...
Look at the HTC Hero, it lasted on their website for more than 3 years...
how long has the 4g been around? how many years later. ldk, @ boost mobiles price of $45/mo. for me currently I think I'll ride this one out untill I can get an Atrix to do the same thing!
For another 10 years.

The HeroC is still active, even has CM7 builds. I'd say development will slow down when the Evo 3d gets rooted, but it won't really ever stop for a year or two at least.

development will halt the more and more people's usb ports break and their phones get replaced with non-rootable phones
Considering that it's 99$ at the store and they give a 150$ trade in credit I think it will be around for a while. Plus I just sold one on Ebay for 289$ (with all the accesories of course) After a while though it will phase out like the HD2 did on Tmobile
I'll take a guess and say they'll let it go until the end of 2012 and then stop supporting it and force everyone over to Evo Shift and Evo 3D

lets say you are right and they stop supporting evo 4g at the end of next year. In the second half of 2012 who in their right mind would upgrade their 4g to a shift? By that time the 3d will be mid range and they'd have a high end model and slight possibility of another in between model thrown in like the shift was last jan
The EVO is a great phone. And with a strong developer community behind it, I see the end of its effective lifetime being about the time Sprint's new LTE network becomes viable. That's the point at which the last holdouts will start dumping their Evos, IMHO.
