Amazing! You have prophet like vision for the obvious.
Im sure it was a mix up like they said. Also think evo will be getting a OTA tho so that it can keep up with the latest and greatest.

We've had leaked 2.3.3 builds for a while now, it's only a matter of time before the official RUU is posted.

Does this benefit those who already have AOSP gingerbread?

hahahaha look now, Sprint edited it back. Theyre calling it an "unfortunate misprint" but I have a feeling it was a leak. Honestly I'm not sure how you can post in four different locations that the Evo 4G now has Android 2.3 and have it just be a mistake? Anyone else think thats a little excessive for an accident?
A lot of people are gonna be pissed when they open the box and the phone is running froyo.
Better than opening it and having it running eclair

This should be kept in the general threads. A mod will probably merge it with other 2.1 rumors. You are about the 3rd person to start a thread with a reference to this engadget article.

Its exciting because we'll have custom 2.1 roms based on the official 2.1 firmware for OUR phones, instead of just a leak.

What is this nonsense that people keep saying?
Prior to the MR I had a phone that couldn't output stereo sound through headphones, would randomly miss text messages (that would disappear forever, even after rebooting--a ridiculously serious problem), would stay awake 100% of the time and had terrible battery life, didn't have an easy way to switch calls back and forth from speakerphone, and an unreliable camera that failed to focus most of the time.
What issues are you talking about that were newly introduced? They certainly weren't worse than the ones that I listed above because I haven't noticed any.
Guys, the source of this article is the XDA forum!! Their info isn't any more "official" than our own!

that would be gizmodo
I was in best buy earlier and the two girls working mobile were joking around and not busy at all. So of course I had to go over and start chatting with them. It was my duty as a guy right??? Anyway, I figured that since I had seen this best buy screenshot I would bring it up. They both looked at me like I was crazy. One of them said that the Sprint Hero will never be upgraded to 2.1 and that Sprint and HTC never said it would be. She said the Hero that looks funny, like has the funny looking bottom that is like the g1, that version will get the update someday.
Anyway, I told her I had seen the screen shot from the best buy intraweb so she looked on her computer and said nope, no info on any 2.1 upgrade for the herol.
It'll happen when it does, I don't trust any of the leaks anymore. Just happy I have 2.1 now and it works for me.
The original G1 or Samsung Vibrant?
Well, The G1 Already Has It (Unofficially)
And T-Mobile Stated The G1 Will Never Get It..
Sooooo?
Ha ha I am just playing
I know the G1 will never get it, and it seems like the Vibrant will never either so I was just joking around :]

It is something they added that is basically like a theme changer.
who said anythign about sprint ID in EC05?
It's not really a theme changer what T-Mobile made for 2.3 is a theme changer, it basically is a application pack that gives you certain apps/advertisements varying on what pack you download. It's a crappy idea because all it does is change your wallpaper and give you random applications. Doesn't benefit the user.

Not quiet true. Basically it allows you to choose what Sprint apps you want on your phone and other customizations. It adds widgets ect. It's one single apk and will be easily removable...... Now if Sprint really wanted to make life easier they would make Samsung scrap TW
Sprint said they were including Sprint ID on all their phones when they first announced it. In a Q&A they said it was coming to the Epic. I was surprised it wasn't in EB13.

Well they might not be laughing too long with Google's purchase of Moto. Never know where I'll spend MY money next. They ain't the only game in town. I just posted that on FB
Unbelievable. What is wrong with HTC? I can't believe they'd want to alienate users of one of their recent phones like this.
I saw this on their site
"HTC is committed to assisting customers in unlocking bootloaders for HTC devices. However, certain models may not be unlockable due to operator restrictions. We continue to work with our partners on this, check back often for ongoing updates about unlockable devices."
Which means if Sprint says NO, I guess HTC's hands are tied.
Can someone post a link? I wish to speak my mind

My thinking exactly,I keep coming to remmember when agrbren announced he'd found an exploit ? Then talked to HTC about said exploit,Wondering with a hint of conspiracy if that hole exists in our kernel and they are working to close it? But then they wouldn't have released the 3d and Sensation kernel so fast> just rambling Tirerd need to go to bed, long night tonite.

They are busy there, but they focus on Samsung Phones.... I checked there daily when I used a Transform...
FYI, I don't recommend Samsung phones... They have nice specs, but need replacement Roms to really shine, and even then they still have issues.... My biggest gripe was no CM7 port....
