HTC Evo 4g LTE preorder

I was wondering if anyone had any updates about the Evo Lte preorder for Bestbuy. Sprint has already started their preorder as of 5 min from now. I have bought my last 3 phones from Bestbuy because I love their BlackTie protection and buyback program. I have been waiting 2 years to upgrade my original evo and do not want to take a chance on firstcomefirstserve. I remember the first Evo was on backorder for months for the folks that didnt preorder. If I dont get any info from BB soon , I will have to preorder from Sprint.

Can we please hear from Management on the HTC EVO 4G LTE Status

I am starting this post as a hope to actually get some sort of status update on the HTC EVO 4G LTE release.
I think I speak for the techno philes out there that are waiting for and pre ordered the device. Back on the 17th we were disappointed with the information of the delay. As with most of the techno philes in the world I have been following the news and blogs surrounding this situation.
On Sunday we were greeted by the news that customs had released some of the devices, and than the news that Sprint would be shipping the phones by May 24th. Than in one blog I saw this statement which concerned me.
"So if you have ordered it outside of Sprint such as at Best Buy or Amazon, you will probably have to wait a few more weeks before you get your hands on your HTC Evo 4G LTE." the droid guy, http://thedroidguy.com/2012/05/sprints-htc-evo-4g-lte-coming-to-pre-order-customers-on-may-24th/
I think we would all appreciate some sort of statement from Best Buy. Some information with anything would be better than living in a vacuum of information.
Those that have pre ordered through Best Buy, and read this forum are loyal and avid Best Buy customers and to be honest I think we deserve some information.
I don't mean to rude or short, but if it is true that direct Sprint customers receive their phones this week and we are left waiting days or even weeks for the device, something needs to be rethought.
Again this is a plea for information more than anything.

I don't think they know... I am betting HTC had the Sprint shipments move to the front of the line and they got the first batches of phones that cleared customs... I read somewhere that they test one phone from every box/case shipped in before clearing them. All I know is my preorder with Best Buy still says back ordered and the preauthorization on my credit card is gone now (but those usually go away in 10 days anyway) but since Sprint isn't taking any more orders right now and no one else has them in stock all you can do is WAIT.... Sucks but I bet no one at Best Buy knows a true date and they don't want people to start canceling...

One option would be via Dropbox. Following is a link to information re Dropbox on the HTC Evo. http://www.htc.com/us/support/htc-evo-4g-lte-sprint/howto/393916.html
You can install Dropbox on the iPad via the App Store.
Another option would be to email the photos to yourself.

Evo 4G LTE Back Ordered?

I pre-ordered the HTC Evo 4G LTE the first morning it was available (5/7) and now the order status id 'Back Ordered'?
Is this really the case? I just logged in to see if there was a ship date yet and saw this. Annoying if true.

Dan, I will wait for a while as this is the only phone that has really caught my interest since the original Evo 4G 2 years ago. My issue if you look at my original post had nothing to do with the delay, in fact I posted it well before I ever heard about that.
My problem is with Best Buy and the way they have handled this order since I placed it. I only looked at the status this week and saw it listed as back ordered, but I suspect it has said that almost since the moment it was placed. I have a co-worker that placed an order the same morning and it went to backordered status at once.
I posted here and emailed the online store address and asking about it before the news of the customs delay came out. That was Tue afternoon. To date the closest I have to any kind of response from Best Buy is you post above.
I did get this right after I sent the email:

EVO 4G LTE - deal verification

I've seen a lot of conflicting information regarding the deals available for purchasing the EVO 4G LTE from Best Buy. I'm upgrading from an EVO 4G and plan on turning my phone in for the trade-in offer. I also pre-ordered my new phone in the store. I believe this means that I will receive a $50 credit (for the trade-in, regardless of phone condition) and a $50 GC (for pre-ordering my phone in store), thereby bringing my total cost to $99.99. However, the guy in the store had no idea what I was talking about when I asked about the GC. Am I missing something here?

Actually, there are *FOUR* deals that you can possibly combine if eligible.
$50 Gift Card for Pre-Order that **CAN** be used towards purchase.
$50 Discount for trading in original EVO 4G.
$50 Gift Card for trading in original EVO 4G.
$50 Gift Card if you signed up for Phone Freedom (can no longer sign up) that **CAN** be used towards purchase.

It appears at a minimum, you will be able to apply $150 (2 gift cards and 1 discount) towards purchase of the phone. Remains to be seen if the $50 gift card from the trade-in deal can be used at purchase.

Adobe Photoshop Touch for HTC EVO View 4G ?

Hello, I was really excited to use the Adobe Photoshop Touch App for my Android Device. I purchased the HTC EVO View 4G for Sprint and I tried to find the App but I does not seem to be compatible with my device! This is a HUGE disappointment :(. I believe it is not compatible because #1 the screen resolution is 1024 x 600 and #2 a screen size of 7". I chose this device because it has the best specifications in its portable size, not to mention the pressure sensitive stylus . Please don't leave this category out! I need this app hahah, but seriously.
Will Adobe ever make the Adobe Photoshop Touch App available for the HTC EVO View 4G?

Hi AFlo00,
Sorry to hear it doesn't work with your device. We've had others say something similiar, my advice would be add your vote (and any comments if needed) here.

Palm needs a new device for summer on sprint after HTC Evo announcement.

First, I am a loyal Palm fan and believe web OS is the best mobile OS on the market to date. No one is close to the ease of use of the OS and the pure genius of getting updates out and innovating and improving so quickly. With that said, if you know about the HTC Evo and its specs, you tend to think the Pre is a drag. A webOS device with a 4.3 inch screen would be quite the experience and with a better camera for nice HD video and HDMI out, it would be awesome with the new editing feature. The most important thing is the processing speed. If webOS was super slick with a snapdragon processor it would be a no brainer to pick this phone over any phone currently on the market. Palm if you are listening, the palm pre was a great device and the pre plus only made it better. It needs to go further and quickly.

+1. I feel the WebOS is far superior to Android but Palm is falling behind. I recently added a patch that makes my Pre way faster and is even more stable than without it. Many of us that got our Pre will be up for our Premier upgrade in June and we need Palm and Sprint to give us something to keep up us using the Pre. With other carriers now carrying the Pre Plus and Pixi Plus why can't Sprint carry the same. Maybe even a 4g version. At this point if Palm has not even launched a rumor about a next generation Pre on the Sprint network I may be jumping on the Evo bandwagon. I hope this thread is read and taken seriously. There is huge hype on the Evo and Palm needs to attack.

Downloaded new 4.0 today and decided to download and sync mobile to my HTC EVO 4g which seems to work but how do I make Firefox the homepage on phone?

Have had Firefox for years on my mac and works great. Downloaded today new 4.0 on desktop mac OS 10.6.7 and works great. Have sync and decided to follow instructions to download Firefox to my HTC EVO 4G. Seemed to download correctly and did get the 3 part key and entered fine. Firefox icon shows up with icon in list of All apps and will work if clicked upon.
But, how do I make Firefox my home page on my phone? When I select magnifying glass key on glass I go to standard google homepage I've had since day one. I'd like to go directly to Firefox as I do on the desktop.

Oops, I forgot a step between 7 and 8 ... before syncing the iPhone I need to explicitly send the document back to iTunes on the iPhone, or the changes won't come over at all ...
and then one more thing ... Numbers on iOS does NOT recognize a number of key features of the OSX app, such as conditional formatting ... so after editing my document on iOS and syncing it back to OSX on my Mac, all of those settings are lost (no more conditional formatting, have to do it all over again)
What am I doing wrong ?

Hi btrlover123, I haven't noticed crashes inside Fx14 Mobile, the release version, but going "back" to the HTC Sense home page often white-screens.
Are there a few sample URLs that people can test which reliably cause you problems?

Hi,
We from nova media have just released an HTC to Mac sync solution. It is called FoneSync for Android. Check out http://www.novamedia.de for details. It will sync your iTunes playlists with your HTC phone. Next to our solution, you might want to look for isyncr or doubletwist...
