EVO3D Tips & Tricks
I'll periodically this thread with all kinds of cool tips and tricks I see available for the device. Feel free to make suggestions of your own and we'll add them!
1. Uninstall your Bloatware! So, someone in the #htc-evo chat said that you could uninstall apps on the stock 3D... i looked into it, and went straight for the blockbuster app. Sure enough menu -> settings -> applications -> manage applications -> blockbuster -> uninstall reboot and BAM! It is gone! They also mentioned something about shared space... about /system being readable only, so it still resides there but is no longer installed? But, it is gone and I am looking forward to eliminating others. Now we need a safe list of things to get rid of! Other bloatware includes Sprint TV, NASCAR, Sprint Radio, and others! Tell us! Thanks GhettoBSD! 2. Test That 3D! Here is a Youtube video that really shows off the 3D affect better than what comes on the device for demos... I love this one... Youtube Player in 3D GoPro 3D Post some links if you find some cools ones! Thanks scrosler & CarlaDarla! 3. Boost Your Battery! Like all 4G phones - and most especially with the now 3D one - these things suck battery like water, be sure to follow some of these tips below to get the most out of your EVO3D - both in performance and usability.
Thanks GhettoBSD! 5. Start all over with a Hard Reset! How to hard reset:
6. Free Wifi-Tether w/ Temp Root! http://forum.ppcgeeks.com/htc-evo-3d...fi-tether.html Thanks Scrosler! Last edited by OMJ; 07-06-2011 at 02:28 PM. |

Re: EVO3D Tips & Tricks
how about 3. Properly manage your battery! I know its tempting to turn it on and go! BUT, let the phone charge completely over night. In the morning, once the green 'fully charged' led is on, unplug the charger until the light turns off. Once off, plug the charger in and let it charge up again. Use the device until the battery is exhausted (the phone will shut itself down). Now charge and do the same.
I'm getting great battery life in the first two days doing this and historically, battery life should be pretty bad.

Yeah, actually if you figure the average life of a phone battery is maybe 18 months, you shave about two weeks off of its overall life every time you drain it... best to plug in and top off whenever possible.

Re: EVO3D Tips & Tricks
Not to disrupt the proverbial battery debate, but another 3d video sampling that looks good is the 3d maestro on youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uMTvaNomlWY
and The Prodigy's Girls: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4MXePU_pcL4 There are some other music vids from Black Eyed Peas and Lady Gaga, but they don't have the same pop without being hd as well as 3d |
