When i take a picture even though the screen before the picture is 3d, as soon as i take it, it goes 2d and looks like there is 3 versions of the picture all moved along eachother.
The switch on the side is set to 3d...
Any one else experiencing this?
Have you reboot your phone yet to see if the fixes it ?

Yeah tried that.. Still the same...
Sometimes the 3D gets buggy on my phone. It will get fixed with a complete reboot. Try rebooting more than once, or turn of fastboot and then reboot.
I found out that you can't do a "full" reboot without doing a battery pull.
It seems like the phone is never really turned off if you don't do a battery pull.
Take the battery out and put it back in than then try and power the phone on, and see if that helps the problem.

Thanks to both of you.
My battery was low, (about 15%), so i charged it to 50%, turned off, took battery out for 10 seconds, replaced it, turned on and its fine!
So i dont know if its a low battery thing or what as the photos i took were still weird at 50% but it took 3d and is 3d after!
Weird...

Ok sorry if this has already been discussed but I'm kinda in a hurry. I'm having an issue where if I tell the phone to reboot or even power off, it will just turn off and not come back up without a battery pull. Last time I told it to reboot (fastboot off btw), it turned off, then the red led came on for a few seconds, then it just stayed off. I've noticed that the only way around this is to pull the battery and then try to boot it up, which works fine but is annoying as hell. Is this a common issue or what, trying to get some opinions on whether or not to try to exchange it before I get off work and go outta town.
Try a factory reset. Still no luck, then take it back

Well, I hanging on to this 3VO for right now at least, still hoping to hear from more people. Actually, I hope this isn't a real problem with the 3D's in general and that mine is a somewhat isolated incident. Bad comes to worse, I swap for a new one or the GS2 at the end of the month.
I had that problem for a day on mine, and after that it never happened again.

Oddly enough, same here I think. It happened a couple times during the first 2 days maybe and hasn't done it since... weird...
Mine was having the problem where if I restarted it would just power down. Then it got to where I had to pull the battery to get it to turn back on. Took it back yesterday.

I really hope i dont have to return my phones... My wife mentioned it to me that her phone wasnt rebooting any more when she presses restart an i tried it on mine an it wont do it any more either. Maybe its just a update
I have the same problem after restarting I had to pull battery. I think its just a bug the phone works perfect other than that.

so, ive discussed IMO a very nasty thing about this phone I dont like. Of course my goal is to not let my battery die. But it has happened to me a few times. Im finding that after the battery dies, It takes me about 20 minutes to get the phone powered back on. Even if it is plugged into a power outlet. It simply does nothing for about 20 minutes after it is plugged in. Doesnt respond to power button, battery pull, etc.
So..I thought, maybe its a measure like blackberries where they wont power the radio back on until the battery reaches "x" percent. Doesnt seem to be the case either.
Ive had many HTC devices including the OG Evo, never seen anything like this...any ideas?
It's a mystery to me as well. It's happened a couple times to me. The only way I could power it on is by letting it sit on the charger for several minutes.
I think it might have to do with the way we rooted them. The developer mentioned an issue with letting the power go dead. It may not be a problem if you are in fast boot mode.
Hmmm...............

Mine has a problem powering on while it is charging. I'll have to take out the battery and unplug it to get it to turn on.
im finding out that people who are using cwm have a problem charging with power off. Im using twrp so Im sure this doesnt pertain to me..but its got to be something kernel or recovery related. im gonna ask over in vipers thread and see what kind of answers I get
Happens to me often as well. When I plug mines in, its usually good to go about 2 minutes after the red light stops blinking.

Damn, that sucks. I'm using TWRP I also suspect it may have something to do with clockwork. Although it could just be that the battery needs to charge to a certain point for the phone to kick in. Who knows.. LOL

I just ended up trading mine in for a refund. I found the 3d offered very little over the original Evo, and mine had worse reception and call quality than the original. I am now using a nexus s until a better phone comes out.
I just revieced my evo 3d, also i want to know:
Is the Battery charging to 100% normal for long time?
and is the FOTA 1.13 worth getting

i think mine charges the battery up to 99% but to be honest, i haven't focused attention on the exact percentage.
I did the OTA to 1.13 and it patches quite a few things. i don't think you *have* to update and i haven't noticed much difference before and after. the only official update information i quickly saw was from searching google was this: http://www.htc.com/us/support/evo3d-sprint/downloads/ . They describe the update as : This update fixes issue of calendar entries in certain formats force closing during edits . Looking at the update .zip file, I pulled it from the cache before loading it, it touches a lot of files. Perhaps somebody has more details on the OTA ...
I remember back when I first got my EVO3D on launch day it to for dreaming ever to fully charge.
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
Most of the time, mine seems to cap out at 99%. It did that the first couple of nights I had it (where it spent the whole night on the charger), as well as when I've plugged it in at work. Today I saw 100% for the first time.
Doesn't worry me.
Does the same for me. If I in plug it, then plug it back in and wait about 20 min it finally gets to 100 percent. Pretty strange I'd say. I'm on silverneedle and viper-rom btw.
Well, at 3 am floridian time, my evo decided to turn off, and never turn on again. left batt out, charge for 24 hours, even tried to get to bootloader, i get nothing

wow, this is definitely different scenario than your OP.
when you press power on the phone, there is absolutely no response? LED doesn't flash at all, screen wont turn on? you've tried the vol down + pwr and vol up + pwr?
the only easy solution i can think of is a bad battery. and by easy, i mean you could get a new battery and see if the phone turns on and that would be a cheaper easy fix. otherwise, i'd probably take it back to where you bought it and/or sprint as it definitely sounds like a hardware issue.
if you aren't able to turn it on, they shouldn't be able to either. as long as your water/wet stickers show the phone hasn't been wet, they should be able to replace it.
good luck! let us know how it turns out!

Well, the stickers are normal, concidering i just bought it yesterday and i looked
and well, i charged it fully, 100% and made a ~2 hour phone call and got to 68%. then it sat for an hour while on psn call of duty, then i went to reboot for thr OTA, and it just went BLEH. NO leds, no screen, no nada.
Just a half lit charging led wven though NO charger connected.
EDIT
Went to best buy and the guy examined the phone like a car. and was completely astounded that it wont turn on. tried 3 chargers and a new battery and ended up replacing it xD
I'm having a hard time turning my phone on while its charging. It is difficult otherwise, but impossible during charging. Am I the only one with this issue?

Are you rooted and have clockwork? There are issues with it with power when off, not charging and could be result kept it.
I don't have clockwork, have the other one. Name escapes me currently.

This is one of the reasons I am going for the SGS2. Most times I have to--have to--do a battery pull to get it to turn back on. Sometimes the SDcard too. Sometimes it doesn't even charge. Sometimes I charge it while on and wake up to a green light, phone locked hard off (requiring battery pull and sdcard pull), and when I boot it up (if I can) the battery is completely dead.
It's a major issue with the 3d. There have been a ton of threads. And BTW, it happens on rooted AND stock devices. My phone died last night. Took me 32 effin minutes to get it to come back on. One of the reasons I'm getting rid of it

2 days before release I stopped into my local Radioshack to play with the demo phone. I saw it turn on, we played with it. Powered off...and never came back on. One of my friends did that eventually too.
...can't say I'm not scared of that happening to me.

It's not a glitch. For some reason, HTC designed it that way. If the phone is off and rooted, but still connected to some sort of AC power or USB power, the phone is actually in recovery mode, however, the screen just appears black. You wouldn't even know it!! LOL.....but, if you pull the AC power or USB power from the phone, and wait like 5-10 seconds it will boot right up, no problem or issues.
Crazy, huh? It may be a bug with revolutionary root; I reported it to IMFDM or however you spell it and the above is what he told me.
If you noticed, before you were rooted, it wasn't a problem. Don't keep removing the case and pulling the battery, just wait a bit after you pull the plug, It will be good to. Trust me, I go through it regulary!!
Hope that explains it for you guys...and helps you out.

Actually I absolutely noticed this before rooting...but back then I barely ever powered off. Nothing to flash, no way to flash it. I'm pretty sure it was just the same except we had much much much less reason to power off and reboot.

I never did. I could power it on no problem before rooting. Didn't flash anything (I like Sense, what can i say...)....anyways, I noticed it afterwards and maybe it is true what that guy at AlphaRev said, it is the way HTC designed it for some weird reason....
Not a big deal for me though, now that he told me that...

this happens to my coworker that has this phone, and she is NOT rooted. And the above method never worked for me. Ive done that a million times trying to get it back on. Thanks for the tip though..
This has happened to me as well several hundred times it seems! It also did it when the phone was new. We had gone away on vacation like the week after the 3D came out, my phone had died while we were out, I plugged it into the charger, went to power it back on a couple hours later, and NOTHING! Probably took me a good 20-25 minutes to finally get it to come back on, with me eventually pulling the battery. This was stock at the time.
My 2 biggest gripes with the 3D, signal/call quality, and the power on glitch...
Today i was using my evo 3d on wifi , i locked it for a few min and when i picked it back up it was off , now the phone doest turn on at all , it just vibrstes one time and does nothing :|
Maybe the battery is empty

no need, spend 5 mins, plugging charger in, til the red light, lights then fades, pull out at this point, then plug in, repeating the process for 5 mins........then, hold (vol - , & Power) booting into bootloader, then plug your phone in, and you will see its charging
had to do it a few times myself
