Do any of you Evo owners have one of these? I am kind of curious how hard it would be to apply.

maybe its just me but i think that looks rediculous.  of course, i think the powercat looks rediculous on anything excluding our football helmets.   this comes from years of holiday presents gifted to me that included anything with a powercat on it.  a powercat potholder!  sweet!  a powercat hammock!  sweet!   powercat curtains for my living room!  sweet!  :flush:

Ok, I think we have established that I am a little slow.  Did I get whatever this Froyo is on my update yesterday?   :dunno:

i think it will prompt you to install it and i don't think it will install unless you ok it. 
check what version of android you're running, official number is 3.26.651.6 for 2.2 (i think)

go to settings > system updates > HTC update and "check now"

Here's the good thing about skinit.  You can make your own.  Would be fantastic if a good 'shopper on here could make a really sweet one.  I'm a below average 'shopper.  I also kind of wonder how clear they would look if you make them yourself.

YES!!!!   :pbj:


According to a few reliable sources it looks as if the Epic 4G will launch on August 11th, also other rumors suggest that Sprint stores will be opening early for the launch (8.00am).

if you're in the same month as your renewal/contract expiration, they will renew you.  (pretty sure, not 100%).
the epic is really cool.

This looks to not be happening.  However, I would LOVE for it to.

Voice dialing over Bluetooth.
Camera four-way rotation allows the camera icons to rotate with the camera.
Capability to share applications.
Display events and birthdays from Facebook on calendar.
Use camera LED as flashlight.
New user interface for the FM radio.
Add unknown users in Facebook as friends in Friend Stream.
Photo Gallery supports Facebook comments function.
Send contact as vCard using text message.
New preloaded widgets including calculator, FM radio, message list view, profile settings, and ringtone settings.
Camcorder can use camera flash so video can be shot at night or in low light.
Improved browser performance including a faster JavaScript engine and Flash 10x support improving the user's capability to view videos and available content associated with Web pages.
Numeric PIN and alphanumeric passwords to unlock screen.
Search widget and search bar able to switch to search in different types (Web, specific application, or all).
Adjustable alarm volume.
Android Market widget allows installation of applications on SD card.
Improved Android Market interface
The screen rotates in both directions now, previously it was just counterclockwise.
You can, at last, copy text from e-mails using the standard Gmail app. It's a bit fiddly, but what you do is open your e-mail, go to "menu," select "more," and there's an option to select text. Position the cursor where you want, and press and hold to copy to the clipboard.
It supports Hebrew font
The camcorder app now encodes video in H.264 not just MPEG4 or H.263.
When you hold the home icon you get eight active apps versus the previous six active apps.

Does the "improved browser performance" only apply to the delivered browser or does it also apply to Dolphin...'cause I've just been using Dolphin.
