OK,so my wife got my old Evo and I obviously got the new 3D..Well today is the day we are trying to set up the perfect video call apps..We went through all of them and really like the Skype app,works great.
In the process we came across Tango(semi popular).But i noticed when i switched to my rear facing camera that my mini display of my feed to her was in 3D! I then looked at the feed on her phone and it was a side by side video(duh,because she doesnt have a parallax barrier) But my mini screen indeed did not show 2 side by side images.It showed a very tiny 3d feed.
If any of you have 2 Evo 3D's available give it a shot and switch to rear camera and tell me what ya get and how the quality is.
so did your try the same thing with qik or just tango? pretty cool none the less!

Quick only enables 1 camera on the back..Tango enables both..So on qik it works like normal(no 3D) but we decided against Qik because the audio cuts in and out and is pretty much useless unless you want to be a lip reader at times.
Cool!
Haven't tried but will give it a shot!
let me know please..curious to know
yea i noticed when i video chatted to my friend he has a dell streak so it was side by side also . i wonder im try tomorrow with my sister phone ill post my findings ..
if you did a video chat with another 3vo, i wonder if they would see it in 3d.
That's nice but only one person will be able to do 3d at a time bc none of you'se will be able to see the screen if your using the back camera. Unless you want to show off your surroundings in 3d of course

I tried tango with my brother. I get a split screen.. we both have evo 3D. I figured they don't 3d player support. I tried playing my 3d videos with other players and I also get a split screen using that player. So I think they need to add support to the tango player for 3d effects.

The way I understand how those screens work, I don't see how it would be possible for the screen to have a 3D effect in portrait AND landscape. And if it doesn't, that could be a deal breaker. Like you'd want the interface 3D effects, but you'd also want to be able to watch 3D videos in landscape.
Anyone know? I can't find any info on it or any video or anything.
While I don't think anyone can provide official answers at this point in time, I would assume they would not make it so that you had to watch YouTube 3D in portrait mode, as everyone knows how ridiculous that is.
Also, see:
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JSuD45mRl_o&feature=channel_video_title
It shows a video by HTC of the HTC EVO 3D, and it shows a movie being played in landscape, while the whole premise of the video is to showcase 3D abilities of the device, saying, specifically, before the portion of a movie clip in landscape, "3D movies in a stunning qHD display."
Thank god a new thread was started for this extremely specific question. I doubt it could have been asked in the 47 other EVO 3D threads.

Maybe anything that has the 3D effect will be forced to landscape (hypothesis)
If it's like any of the other glass-less 3D screens (LG Optimus 2X, Nintendo 3DS, 3D photo frames, etc...) it'll only work in 1 orientation. In order to work in 2 orientations, it'll need 2 parallax layers (instead of 1), or some other technology, and I don't think it's cost effective yet to do so.
If it will work horizontally what is stopping them from making it work vertically?

I posted this idea in the suggestion sub-forum and no one has replied to it yet.
What I was wondering about is. Well, ok, the phone takes 3D still pictures and video. I take it that you can view these 3D stills on your phone and maybe a 3D TV?? What about the video? Again viewable on a 3DTV?? What about on your pc monitor? I guess printing hard copies is out huh? So, its kinda like a novelty and maybe gamer thing??? The only thing I would probably like is if the GUI itself is 3D. Thats what I'm looking at the most anyway.

As far as I understand it, these screens work like printed holograms. Your left and right eye are actually seeing different sets of pixels. So the screen is divided into two vertically-interlaced screens (which explains the poor viewing angle). If you turned such a screen on its side, the pixel rows would no longer be vertically interlaced but horizontally interlaced and your eyes would not be seeing the different screens and you would have no 3D effect.
From videos of the device it seems clear that it DOES work in both portrait and landscape, so I'm pretty interested in learning how they're pulling it off.
I am interested to hear what u guys are interested in looking, playing or watching in 3d once you get the evo 3d.

obvious answer: porn
but i want to play some 3d games and watch any kind of 3d movie..prefer action etc, i don't even know what movies are in 3d, idc though.
honestly the 3D aspect of the phone for me is just novelty till the 3D takes off fully, for now the main reason im getting the EVO 3D is because of the Specs this beast is carrying. 3d is just a plus, to show off for me.
Honestly, I'm not very interested in the 3D. I can imagine if/once I bought EVO 3D, I would be spending most of the time wondering how much lighter/thinner it would be without the 3D inside.
I understand and agree the 3d aspect is just a novelty. but as we all know we would all be liars if we claimed we would not once use the 3d aspect of this device. My question was more geared towards what are u interested in seeing when you use it even if ur just using it to test it out. Any one buying this just for the 3d does not need this device they need a view master

After playing with a 3DS I'm very excited for the Evo 3D. Looking forward to augmented reality apps and games. Even subtle 3D upgrades to apps like Google maps, etc I think will add a lot to the mobile experience.
Maybe I think I can only use the 3D camera to take some photo or video.
I've been playing NOVA on the optimus 3D and have to say it adds quite a bit to the experience. Plus youtube 3D is pretty entertaining when your bored =D
I'd probably just use it to watch movies etc. But from everything I've seen so far, it doesn't look like it's going to blow the EVO away. Lots of small things lost. (hdmi, charger on the side, etc)
Hdmi is not lost. It is integrated into the charger port. In fact hdmi is actually upgraded to full hdmi mirroring. That means anything on ur screen will be mirrored onto the tv screen.

totally right.
charger on the side is def not worth the upgrade from 1x 1ghz to 2x1.2ghz.
=P and like above poster said, HDMI is done through the USB port now.
although i had the Bold 9650 and the charger port was literally on the side next to the enter/backspace key...you had to hold the phone WAY awkward to type with it...when on every other Bold phone they had it on the bottom i'm p.sure.
If the charging port is HIGH enough to allow portrait typing still, it will be fine, but if its down low next to where the keyboard is, it will be a nuisance, one i could deal with for the amount of hardware upgrade this phoen is.
I wanna know whether we can browse the interface [htc 3.0] in 3D too?? like LG OPTIMUS 3d?

But I am wondering if it will appear double when trying to view on a non-3d device...
I'm sure it'll look "2d" to a regular pc/phone. Gleaming from the shots that were uploaded on picasa, I'm assuming they just look like lower resolution pics to the 2d crowd.
Thats a good question. Will it have the red/blue double video like non glasses free 3d devices. I will have to send a 3d video from the g-slate at work to my phone to see what it looks like. Could have different settings I guess but I would think it records the video in 3d so there wouldnt be a way to format it once its recorded to 2d. Just my opinion but I will check that out tomorrow.

I'm wondering if there will be a way that I can convert my normal movies(2d) into a 3d format to watch on the phone. Anyone know of anything like this?
It is simple, If you have 3d capable you will see it 3d, if not you will see it 2d.
If you take a 3d picture and wanna share it on Facebook, it will turn
2D(I think until Facebook, make photos 3d capable on their website).
In YouTube if you upload 3d you will see it 3d. You can browse HTC YouTube site and there is The EVO 3d comercial in 2d and in 3d and you will see something like if you take the glases off in a 3d movie.
About sending 3d content I think that will depend if the phone is 3d capable or not, but if not if will convert the photo in 2d.

To clarify, I'm not talking about sharing via a service like YouTube.

I was searching in Youtube videos Review of the EVO 3D and a found what you was asking.

Is about 4:25 or 4:30...

Thanks. Im glad for you that you write perfect english without error.
I'd like to say, in theory, with a game that is rendered in three dimensions, you could program it to just use two different camera angles... but um, it'd have to be programmed into each one i'd guess... so yeah, no, prolly never gonna work.

Correct. Now the trolls can go away
In theory the display driver could be coded to display any opengl app in 3d, without changing apps. The driver has the complete 3d model, and two perspectives could be rendered. This would produce an accurate 3d projection for any ogl/el game.
The only thing that would appear odd is if the dev wasn't careful with the z plane on some objects ( 2d overlays, etc). It would appear fine in 2d, but 3d they may be way close or far out.
The 3d games aren't even POP OUT 3D so I don't know what the other guys are talking about. If you even play the included 3d game you can easily tell it just adds depth....I see why there would be a difference in other games, there will just be aded depth.
I thought NVIDIA's 3d stuff was a similar hack which is why they had varying degrees of compatibility among various games

I doubt spiderman was completely rewritten in 3d format. I would imagine it was just converted. I know instant 2d to 3d on a capable television doesnt look bad at all. Even some 2d to 3d clips are pretty good if done right, so I dont see what all the negative fuss is about. I was disappointed before launch, when I realized this phone didnt do 2d to 3d.
Oh yeah, games like call of duty that switches to 3d, doesnt have a completely seperate game on the disc, and it looks good.
3D isn't 3D as it was 5 years ago.
even in the movie theaters 3D isn't like OMG **** IS COMING AT ME kind of deal.
it adds "depth" and somewhat "clarity"
i remember Terminator 3D , now that was 3D .
the EVO 3D has limitations , makes stuff minor 3D. requires a lot of resources for full 3D . nothing a phone can handle atm, not even computers can handle it. full popping out , i think that hand is gonna grab my face 3D .
would you sacrifice half your battery life permanently with no fixes for full 3D on all the time? how would your eyes feel? looking at it everyday all day? i'll super glue 3D glasses onto your head . everything will be 3D .
the 3D effect is simply an angle, and depth as people say. that is all. makes you see more than just a flat angle. you can see the sides of the flatness, making it 3D

Well I've been looking at the evo 3d for a while and I've just ordered one off Amazon UK to use on my three UK account.
It is due to arrive on Tuesday can't wait.
I have a couple of questions if you can help
The 3d cameras is it easy just to point and click or do you need to take it at a certain angle ?
If I want to use 3d films which I own which is the best way to convert for the ego ?
I use to have the sensation (I change my phones like my socks as I've not found the perfect phone yet but have high hopes about the 3d) the sensation had battery problems and awful lag has this been sorted with the 3d ? You tube videos show the evo being very smooth but is it ?
How good is the camera the s2 has a perfect camera but there are also loads of negatives
Lastly and this IM sure wont be clear cut will I regret moving from s2 to there evo 3d ?

3D is easy to use, must shoot landscape.
Handbrake works quite well for conversion, if you want to see a movie I did with handbrake, hit me up on IRC.
Most of the ROMs have been through several revisions, I would say lag and battery are not issues at this point.
Well no camera is perfect, there have been quite a few MODs done to the E3D camera by myself and several others. The front facing camera can do 2MP now.
And switching phones... Well if you don't like regular updates, Samsung is your best best...

As for E3D's 3D camera you just point and shoot and prepare to be amazed. 2D is ok as long as you don't use the auto setting.
I use 4videosoft blueray ripper to convert 3d films. It is easy to use.
Never had a sensation so don#t know about its performance. On E3D everything is working as it should be- Fast and furious.
Be warned, there isn't a lot of preloaded 3D contents on UK's E3D. Only few pictures and that's it. No movie, no video clips, no games, no nothing. But there are tones of 3D stuff on youtube - just search yt3d. Or just go out and start shooting yourself. I still can't believe how good the 3D photos look on the phone( not too brilliant on big screen TV tho as it is only 2megapixel). 3D gaming is fun also.

That's correct. But you still have to take the battery cover out, it is a bit silly really. I miss how it was designed on the Windows mobile 6 where sd card is easily accessible by place it on the side of the phone.

No Green Hornet I am afraid, at least not on my phone. Battery consumption is really heavy on this phone, especially when taking 3D pictures roughly 800 -900mA because it uses both cameras. I usually only get 4-5 hours of heavy ussage. I can't not understand when people say their phone lase whole day when taking 3d photos videos and play games all the time. It is just not possible.
I went out having lunch with friends yesterday. Playing music 50 minutes , videos 5 mins and taking 25 3d photos, let m8s play with the phone for like 15 minutes. 5 hours later I have 7% battery left. If I play 3d games constantly, the battery will not last longer than 3 hours, about the same I got with Desire HD. In standby 8-15% drop over 6-8 hours period. There is not a lot of custom roms for GSM 3D to play about atm. Hopefully it will catches on.
As for 2d photo setting, sharpness + 1 helps a lot in general, under low light up the exposure rather than iso, other setting you just have to play it a bit and see what suit your taste the best. My conclusion about photo is doesn't matter how good a 2D photo is, it is never going to be as realistic as a 3D one.
Excellent thanks mine is out with royal mail this morning can't wait ... Tee the battery thats not bad for all that use s2 would last half that !
