HTC EVO 4G Will Launch With Storage Gremlin
During Google’s I\O Conference, they handed out around 5,000 EVO 4G’s to attendees. How does that benefit them? A whole lot of hardcore testing. Well low and behold, something popped up.
The lucky ones who got their hands on the EVO a few weeks early have been reporting issues with not being able to write data to the included 8GB microSD card. (Yes I know my image above shows 4GB, gimme a break) Apparently it’s an intermittent issue, but when it occurs it can cause hang ups, or even total crashes. Obviously this isn’t a good thing, but a simple reboot fixes the problem.
Not one to stand around and ignore the problem, HTC is aware of the problem and will be pushing out a software update to the phone as soon as a solution is available (which they expect to be very soon).

Hey, i read the article about the micro sd card problems on the EVO. The memory card ships with the phone unformatted. All you have to do to fix the problem is go into the sd card settings and format the card and it will fix the issues. HTC is aware of this and is releasing an over the air update tomorrow to fix it. I work at Radioshack and we have known about the problem for about a week now. Before we can sell the phone we are required to update the phone for our customers. We have had a live demo of the EVO for about a week now in our store. Its A great phone, however it only has a TFT screen and not an ammoled like the nexus one and the incredible. Sitting next to my nexus one, my screen blows the EVO’s screen away. Muahahahahah

Well that’s interesting. All the misc articles that I’ve read online haven’t mentioned this.
