Kickstand switcharoo... - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Had some free time today and for the sake of esthetics decided to switch the kickstands on a black and a white LTEVO. Mine is the black one on the right. Trying to decide if I want to go white with a red kickstand.

it's custom now, leave it as is. :good:

White looks good on black but red surprisingly doesn't.

Isn't it silver? The kickstand I'm saying. Very Oakland Raiderish. Just needs an NWA sticker.

Now just get that camera lens from the White one over to the black one and you're in business.

You can also switch out the surrounding piece for the camera to incorporate the red ring onto the white phone.

I work at Sprint as a technician too however I used the black screen and the Black kickstand as well as the camera cover.

Sprint techs UNITE!

Nice!
Now i'm wondering what it would look like with Black screen, silver frame and black top and bottom pieces.
Also, it looks like you've already switched the camera bezels, how much of a pain in the ass was it? It looks like you could just cut the plastic tabs off the back and then put a dab of super glue on the back to hold the new one on.

Not gonna lie, an all-black Evo LTE with a silver, or better yet, brushed aluminum kickstand... Yeah, that's sexy.

Grrrr....my techs sent back the white ones we had today before I could get to them.

That sucks. I know we've got one or two white ones, but i'm off today. I hope they're still there when I get back tomorrow. I get the feeling we will be doing a lot of exchanges because these phones are smarter than some of the people that try and operate them...

Now if you could only reverse the kickstand, so that it opened the other way, I'd be a happy little clam...

3 Different Evo 3D's

The orange/goldish/yellow one i got from HTC world site, the Red one is the one we know and love, and the black one is from HTCdev.com
I like the black one
Lol, this is in my post too. I tweeted HTC about that. They're just backdoors, so hopefully I can snag a all black.

will do.

man I hope we can get the all black, that was my only complaint about the evo 3d on sprint, the ugly ass red ring. If I can at least order a all black back cover. I'll be good to go.
you may just be able to use some RIT dye to make the ring color black depending on the material.

I just noticed that on the all black dev phone there shutter/ camera button isn't there or is different from the other 3d's, so is the 2d/3d toggle switch
The camera lenses are different as well. One is yellow/gold and the other is gray/black. Those two details combined might mean they did a redesign into this new look. I like it, personally.

I don't think it was ever in the design...unfortunately. Mine EVO 4G though hasn't ever had any problems with it's kickstand. I rather enjoy being able to prop it up and watch a movie on the airplane or wherever. It even jams nicely into the trim seam in my car...so I don't need a mount.
The black and red looks better, imo. Too bad it's not red with black trim. That would be beast.
I like the all black

+1 for all black; very nice.
I think thy want to keep the red though. The red seems to be the Evo color. Except the Shift is blue? I think black cover will be an optional accessory.

Pretty sure they just slap on blank android when they show off phones at events. They did it earlier this year when showing off the One series I believe.

No, It's a AOSP (like) launcher, I'm pretty sure they have the Sense framework baked in, notice the styling of the Notification bar, etc. This was obviously in a pre-release state, and the Sense launcher may be the only thing not dropped on it.

i love the black. i went with black because i had white S3 and white/silver HTC One. but now that i have a black one, i want a white one too. hahaha
the design on the black looks awesome. plus when the screen is off, it sorta blends with the rest of the phone. real clean looking.

if you wear either of the following, pick white.
a dress
a bra
if not, black
The way I look at it, black is a bit more utilitarian because it blends in better when watching a movie, etc. but white looks better aesthetically (in my opinion).
Black is where its at!

i receive the white version of the phone, i'm annoyed of this black borders around the screen. I feel cheated by LG since they promoted the screen without this black borders.
I agree it was unexpected but I definitely don't feel cheated. Surprised no-one has mentioned it

cheated because the phone was promoted without it. false advertisement.
I hope we never have true edge to edge as I would be worried I would catch something just by holding the fone lol. There comes a point where looks/design can get in the way of practicality.

I agree. If these bezels were any smaller then you would be making all kinds of screen touches that you didn't mean to and it would be super cumbersome to handle.
And if the on screen buttons are your concern about eating up screen real estate, just root and use that app that hides them (directed towards the OP).

I see what the OP is saying. The marketing photo doesn't have the black edge. If I liked the white phone, I would probably be initially annoyed too. You could switch to a solid black background and then you wouldn't notice it at all!
I wanted the white one and now happy I have black....lol. White looks good though.
What carrier is that phone?
That's pretty funny. I wanted a white one, now i'm glad I had to get the black one because of Verizon.
