If it was a real issue, the dev's over at XDA would be all over it but apparently it's not. But what exactly are you wanting? A possible solution? OK....surround your kickstand with tinfoil. Or, have a spray bottle handy so when it gets hot, just spray it down with water.

I don't mean to come across as an ass....well yeah I do, but all themuffinman was saying is if doesn't cause a problem to you, then who cares. Our TP 1's used to get so hot, you could broil a butterball turkey on it. It's really hard to show sarcasm, emotion in text.

Also, think of this. Just about all components inside a phone give off heat. Some more than others. But an EVO has a 1Ghz proc, 512 ram, 1GB internal flash, radios, etc. which all give off heat. Heat travels the path least resistant which happens to be metal on metal. I'm sure the EVO has a heatshield to contain most but the heat has to go somewhere. In your case, and most, which happens to be the kickstand. And honestly, if YOU think it is of concern, Find out what app is constantly running and/or turn off all radios 1 by 1 to root out the cause. If that doesn't solve your problem, take it back. There is a 1 year warranty.

Dude,

Read what I wrote, I was thanking you for actually responding positively. I was annoyed at the guy who was being nothing but negative and unhelpful.

I'll admit that i didn't read ALL of what everyone said so far...but do you happen to have a case on the phone? I've noticed that before I recieved my Innocase Rugged combo the kickstand was alright, but after I put that sucker on, with just the Innocase II part on, the kickstand would get a bit warmer than usual. I'm thinking it could be that the heat from the battery is trying to get out but its trapped so it travels to the most conductive thing that it can find, the kickstand.

I doubt the kickstand is actually used as a heatsink, but with HTC, anything is possible. If it's getting that hot, I would proceed to the nearest sprint dealer or a hose, which ever appears first. But no, my kickstand is always cold. Like my wife.

Yeah, it's all good! We have a 9 month old and he is a pistol and we bicker back and forth. When she leaves for work, I text her telling her that I'm so miserable, It's almost as if she was here....
