The HTC EVO 4G is getting a brand new software update today, and if that doesn’t shock you, you’re a cold, cold person. 32 months after the release of the device, almost three years, it’s getting an update. That’s amazing support from Sprint and HTC. Most people aren’t even on contract with this phone anymore, and they still decided to keep it as secure… Read more
With development for Cyanogenmod 10 already underway, it’s no surprise that we’re beginning to see unofficial Jelly Bean builds arrive for an array of devices.

With the HTC EVO 4G LTE already official on Sprint, we’re not really sure what else we can gleam from the halls of the FCC. For the FCC geeks out there though, you’ll be happy to know we’ve determined the EVO 4G sports LTE on network Band 25. There’s also the usual selection of CDMA 2000, WiFi and Bluetooth radio we’ve come to expect from even the most… Read more

At the time, it was a superphone, bringing specs to the tablet that no other phone could beat. 4.3-inch display, cutting edge processor, and the first phone to have 4G made it a drool-worthy device. The EVO was the phone to have, and remained… Read more
Retailers are known for offering up promotional offers; the only drawback is the fact that they don’t last all that long.

Thanks to our friends over at AndroidGuys, we’ve got word that the Yellow Tag retailer is… Read more
Its been a long run, but the original EVO 4G that helped fueled the popularity of Android is finally being pushed out.

It’s hard to believe that the handset which launched almost 2 years ago is still being sold, but is now… Read more
