How much faster with Froyo?
 
I was just thinking that the EVO is already considerably fast, almost instantaneous in changing screens. Will Froyo allow for or cause the screen to change as your finger approaches?? LOL.....

Froyo isn't going to help much with input lag really since the EVO has a 30fps cap. I can tell you this though. For the users who are able to apply the 30fps fix have ALL reported input lag is gone and that its like night and day.

Now that aside running linpack on 2.1 with JIT enabled I get around 10 MFLOPS max.. On froyo I get around 40 MFLOPS.

So it can be about 4 times as fast as 2.1.

Im on EVOlution's 2.2 Froyo U8
Its MUCH faster than 2.1. I constantly have ablot 200mb of free memory. You should flash it just to check it out.

Seems like I am one of the lucky ones though I expect almost all issues to be fixed eventually if not soon. I have little to no light leakage. No grounding issues. Camera takes amazings pics. Just checked my screen last night and I have an Epson screen, version 003. I am quite content as it stands and cant wait for these updates to start rolling through. Heck I even get 4G everywhere, including at home, and my city: Jacksonville FL isnt even officially on the 4G map. Hopefully everyone will be happy soon.

you only think your phone is fast because you're probably coming from winmo, android 2.2 web browser and aps work way faster then 2.1. i can name a couple of apps that will lag on 2.1 but once on 2.2 they will stop lagging, obviously they are games and use high performance. just opening up a regular app, obviously you can't get to much faster then that.

Don't get me wrong I am happy with my EVO. I have a little light leakage but that is it really besides the input lag..

If I wanted a phone that scrolled slow honestly I would have just kept my old Hermes..Normally I'm stuck with my phone for the full 2 years so I want to try and get the best I can while I can.

Maybe the problems will be fixed but then again maybe not. If the 30fps issue isnt figured out for the novak screens by July 1st then I am going to have to take it back and either

a. wait till all the issues are fixed and get it then
b. wait for another phone that isnt limited from its full potential.

this makes sense. since it seems like the fps is blocked by htc i'm hoping that when cyanogen mod comes out for evo from source im hoping that problem is fixed. honestly i'm grateful for avalaunch but cyanogen is the GOD of source and this is the only rom i'm waiting for.

I agree and honestly the modding community is the part that I would miss the most..Hell I'm even looking for reasons to overlook this but if its going to be 2 months before I can actually get a EVO that doesnt have lag etc then I might as well wait and see if something newer comes out.
