I have been using this for 2 days so far and these are some issues I have ran into:

WiMAX radio not coming on. It gets stuck in Seaching mode in areas that I have always had full 4G connectivity in.

Wifi using over 25% of my battery life. What in the heck is it doing to consume so much energy? This is in an area that has a steady medium signal so its not struggling to connect to a weak signal.

Charged it at home up to 100% and within an hour it was down to 75% with not even what I would consider moderate use.

Wifi Tether never would work right. It would not even let me set up a WPA encryption. Would only let me set up the kind that needs a 13 character password. wtf mate? The WiMAX radio would also get tied up into infinite scan when trying to set it up on Wifi Tether. Do I need a different version of Wifi Tether or do I need to tweak something a little to get it working smooth again?

I have read about undervolting and kernals etc. What is a good kernal to use with this to up the battery life at least 5-10 hours more.

Thanks in advance everyone. Just wanting an EVO that has the features AND the battery life. Yes. I want my cake and to eat it too.
