Guys I just read from a reliable website (cbsmarketwatch.com) that sprint was only releasing the EVO LTE to certain markets. Most likely markets where LTE will be deployed first. The article was then pulled quickly.
I have no reason to lie, I saw the article.
Stay tune!!!!
EDIT: One site supports this http://mashable.com/2012/05/14/sprint-lte-evo-4g-launch/
Tell that to best buys and other retail stores who are going to be selling it Friday.

I would take this with a grain of salt. It just doesn't seem feasible.

Luckily, I am in the DC market, but I ordered from Amazon. So I have no idea what any of that means.

That doesn't make sense. I haven't had WIMAX EVER! So why would the lack of LTE in my market matter now?

Lack of phones?
Yeah it's safe to assume that they read into it and took out of it what they wanted. Yes Sprint announced early opening for stores across the U.S. and I haven't cross referenced them with the locations that are getting LTE but I'm sure they probably match up. But that's as far as it goes, it's no conspiracy to release the phone in only certain markets. Those are just the locations that are doing early openings. Their larger stores. They even state to check with your local store to see if they are doing early openings in which I assume most will. They are expecting this to be as huge as the Original Evo launch so they are just making tha fare that goes along with such big launches. Both the Viper and Galaxy Nexus launched in all markets not just markets that were getting LTE first. So the Evo 4G LTE will be no different. Sprint knows people will buy the thing even if they aren't expected to get LTE anytime soon.

Lost all credibility when the article says in the 1st paragraph that Sprint stores in these locations will be selling the phone at 8am THURSDAY May 18,2012...
Why in the Hell would I trust a site about a release date when they don't even know that Thursday is the 17th.

please see my previous post. Do not worry. This is not the case. Simply put if this were such a thing, you wouldn't be able to place the order for the phone to begin with. Let's not forget that when you go to Sprint's online store one of the things they require is your zip code. Anways don't worry you'll get your phone soon. Also please see Sprint's Website for more information that refutes that link. They simply took the news release and put their own spin on it. That is how you get clicks afterall.
I still think a lot of these threads that are forming could've just added information to similar threads.
I hope that's BS

Well I went to my local Sprint store today and asked the employee there about pre-ordering the Evo 3d, he said they weren't taking pre-orders and he hasn't heard anything about when they will take pre-orders. Cool
Yeah until an official email goes out I think it's just a hit or miss between stores. I'm getting worried though. June 3rd, 4th, 5th, and 8th (some speculation dates I've heard) are all right around the corner and still no word!
I want to know why they wont give a dang price. I dont wanna pre order something when I dont know how much its gonna cost.

Id say a safe estimate is no more than $300 with full upgrade eligibility. Is that too much? Also, preordering does not lock you into the purchase so who cares?

Some stores might not be doing it yet but the store in Lafayette, Louisiana is. I just pre ordered 2. 1 for me 1 for wifey. Paid 100 bucks and got back a yellow sprint card.
The manager said I was the first guy to come in and ask about them. He seemed to know exactly what was going on and processed my payment really fast.

I think what is likely the case is what was mentioned in another thread - corporate stores seem to know the situation while the non corp stores do not. Might not be an airtight assumption but seems to have some clout to it.

you think it'd really be necessary for a pre order? Unless you are really into cell phones and tech, most people don't even know this phone exists. I can't see them being endangered of selling out or anything opening weekend. I could be wrong.
The evo4g was on backorder for weeks after it was released in my area, heck even my touch pro was oos for a week+ on release. Those purchases were done through a corporate sprint store so im sure they were available at other places but people who want to go through sprint will probably need a preorder if they want it soon.

Last year there were about 15 people waiting outside of radio shack at 545 who didn't pre order the evo. RS only had about 5 that weren't spoken for by pre orders. If you want to be safe and get one on day 1, I strongly recommend you pre order.

When i pre ordered the guy had to read me a list of things and we basically had a convo about it . He says for the evo there was like 30 people at 7 am. So if the store theoretically got 100 phones alltogether....and 90 ppl pre ordered and 5 came into get it and i didnt get out of work till 4 pm to come get mine id be **** out of luck and have to wait a couple more weeks. He says chances are slim but it could happen. I pretty much stated the same thing you said to him but he seems to think it will be popular to non-techy people too right off the bat.

Stopped by just to confirm my pre order since i had not received any confirmation. I asked the manager if he had any information on a release date, and he said the store "advocate" was in last week to teach the sales reps about the phone. He said usually when this happens it's a month or less to launch date, but he had no specific date at this point. He confirmed i was on the preorder list and they will call me as soon as any phones come in. Should be very soon i would imagine.

Yes, if it falls in the right hands. But most likely it will be a ota update for all of the Evo 3D. I think its too much of a hassle to unlock them first because the phone is releasing June 5th. MY OPINION DON'T TELL ME TO GO GET AN IPHONE, that joke is old, redundant, and futile.

That seems off.
store here in palo alto, ca have not had the trainings yet. They are usually about a week before release.
The guys I know at the two corporate stores locally (I used to be a sprint employee)
one of them's an ASM and the other a Lead Rep at the other location, neither of there store's have the 3D in nor info on the advocate program.
I can tell you tho that if its getting advocated yet, you'll see leaks on the net guaranteed and also, its true, once they go advocate its normally sub 1 month to release, more like 2 weeks..
But I can't confirm, I can tell you tho that the store I used to work at is a Top 100 in the enterprise and are pretty much first on the list to get/know whats up.
so /shrug no idea, hope so, but unconfirmed so far.
I was told June 4th when I placed my preorder at a sprint store, same day they were doing training

We all have to realize there are two types of people that work at sprint stores. People that are there that just do the job and tech junkies like us. Therefore, I believe everybody that says June 4th are people that read the forums like us. I really do hope it is June 4th but with little info and nothing in the FCC we will most likely be waiting a little longer.

I just have trouble believing that they wouldn't announce the release date more than a week prior to the date. June 4th is one week away, and it seems unlikely to me that it will launch less than one week after they announce it. I hope they do though!

No...this is the forth week of EVO 3D training in the Sprint Playbook. They got it WAYYYY wrong lmao
I don't think week 4 applies to the 4th week in June. Nothing else in this playbook goes that far. Haus already stated my feelings, that its the 4th week in the playbook, not June. I don't think they would use "week 4" in the playbook to refer to 4th week of June, its pretty vague.

i just went to radio shack and best buy
in general the radio shack dood said:
"pre orders usually go for about a month at most"
"about a real release date i would say mid june"
general manager @ bestbuy mobile
told him i heard early june release his reply
"june 14-27 maybe first week of july but i can tell you we have not got any word on a first week of june release"
again i dont think radio shack,best buy,sprint lead rep, xda "insider" or anyone other than HTC or "high up sprint people" will know a for sure release date
as i JUST switched from tmobile yesterday to sprint
and picked up the nexus s (for now)
i hope its within the next 30 days
but honestly NO ONE with a "inside source" will know
so keep floating dates farther and farther out but we will not see this phone in the general public hands till mid to end june
again this is just a opinion and it may be release the 5th or 6th or w.e. you want to think but look at all these dates.... the G2x had a preorder and store date 3 weeks before hand
sprint isnt doing a last notice release! june 4th is a week away... i bet they will tell us WHEN it will be release on the 4th.... not getting the phone out in silence...

now that means if it comes locked then they will not spend the man hours and money to recall all the e3d's back and do that...
(i bet there are 250,000 of them sitting in area 51 or a 25 dollar a month storage shed some where waiting to be sent to each store and 3rd party vendor)
How sad is it knowing that with it now being June 4th (at least here on the east coast) we still don't have our EVO 3D like the first rumor said? I should be camping outside my Sprint store waiting for them to open at 9am.
Ok now let the flamming begin! I'm just bored and it crossed my mind that today should've been the day :/

Christmas is June is always awesome! Finally get a present for myself instead of for others lol. Although I don't know about being worried that the places will run out of phones. I remember par year when I went to get my EVO the waiting list was 3 months, and that was for the people that did pre order. The ones that didn't had a longer wait. I ended up called Sprint and they had one to my house within a week. But when I pre ordered my E3D I was second on the list and I just did it Thursday. And I've read that others are on the top of the list and there detente a lot of people on the list. That's kinda got me worried about how well the phone may do.

No, they can just delete the whole goddamned section.
"HTC Evo," as a branding, must have really worked out. The Evo4G section (during pre-launch) was nowhere near as fncked up IRT all of the dupe threads and crazy ranting and impatience...I suppose HTC did real good in that regard.
As has been expressed many other times by many other people (and I won't open a new thread to say it): I can't wait for the goddamned thing to be released so the Development section can get fired up and I can hang out in there again.
I never visited Q&A for the 4G once it was released. I can only imagine that the dev community will be at LEAST as thriving as the 4G's considering the unlocked bootloader and the massive amount of interest that seems apparent given the flooding on the Q&A section with obvious noobs.
I know man, i'm with you. I cried a little inside, this morning.
I never even got the HTC EVO, i'm still running the Touch Pro 2 on windows mobile. Can you say slow?
Think how excited i am for this thing to come out!

HTC EVO = my best friend
I am disappointed in not having a June 4th release date... But I am happy that HTC unlocked the boot loader for us!... Now we just gotta wait for that one dude who said he would buy us all our phones if HTC unlocked it

Don't hold your breath lol
I'll cry on June 24th. That release date was way too much of pipe dream. Anyone that got their hopes up was just asking for a let down. It was way too soon after pre orders. If June 24th comes and I don't have my Evo from Radio Shack, thats when I take my week vacation from work, stuff my ass like a bear in winter and go into hibernation. Yep.. Thats the plan.
While we're waiting for our phones, I thought I would start a thread where we could just talk without worrying about going off-topic. If you want to talk about how other phones compare to the Evo, rant about rotten fruit and the vegetables that use them, etc, than this is the place.
Just please remember that all of the forum rules still apply here though.
New EVO LTE feature just announced!

Now that is going to be awesome!!
Is there any writer, reporter here in XDA to start a petition or something so we can ALL sign. Don't you guys think it would be a great IDEA to voice it out our opinions? I am just thinking how big XDA network is, Dev's who started from here still on Android now have there own site can always get the word to them as well..
Can someone call this Guys already

saw it. watch them all here every week. What I thought was funnier was the phone they were using in the Speed social media center(social garage) was the Samsung Epic 4G Touch...least thats what it looked like when R. Wood was showing off the Nascar app....Found it real interesting they didn't give him an EVOLTE to use....esp if they had a ton of signage for it...

lol, I've been preparing for this moment for a long time
My ex old lady used to always say she thought I was psychic afterall, or was it psycho.. don't remember
I've been having problems with my OG Evo for like a month now. I didn't know about the charge dock problems even though I'm always here flashing new roms. I was anxiously waiting for the new one and then all of this happened. For a while, I was seriously considering cancelling my order but then I realized that that would be a win for Apple and I could not contribute to their gain. I decided to wait patiently for my phone.
In terms of the patent I think its BS, and this is coming from a software engineer. I don't want to go deep into that discussion but working with code is a whole different ballgame.
In terms of the whole GS3 vs. EvoLTE vs. iPhone5 thing, I think both the GS3 and the EvoLTE are good phones. I don't know much about the iphone5 specs yet. What I can say is that apple products are not that unarguably better overall for them to have so much money and crazy fanboys right now.
The best apple product was the iPod by far. It revolutionized the industry. Everything else from there has come off branding. You can argue about the OG iPhone and iPad being nice too but that feels like a century ago. Like I said, everything else is marketing. Its funny people buying expensive macs just to log in to facebook and serious customers run parallel half of the time to use windows programs.
Right now, we have competition and we have android developers working their a** off to get a small share of the pie and that's why I can't cancel my order. After I read this, I was shocked by how this blind fanaticism is hurting the industry around the world. I don't wanna be a part of that. Like I said, some Apple products are great, but they are not unarguably so ahead of the curve for them to be squashing everyone that easy. My two cents...

Awesome I guess, but who cares thats not off topic man!
Lets continue the talk about Nascar ... Yes I saw all the branding and yes it ticked me off..
Now watching the New cars at Indy, wow they are funny looking. I can't get used to them. They do go fast though, unless of course your car has a Lotus motor in it... those suck. Chevy is dominating! YES!
