Battery
HTC EVO 3D uses a rechargeable battery. How long the battery can last before it
needs recharging depends on how you use HTC EVO 3D. Among these are the
features and accessories you use (for example, leaving your Bluetooth® connection
always on uses more power). Long phone calls and frequent web browsing uses up a
lot of battery power. Also, consider your location: poor signal strength from your
mobile network and extreme temperature make the battery work harder.
Removing the battery thin film
Before using HTC EVO 3D for the first time, you need to remove the thin film that's
underneath the battery.
1. Take the back cover off.
2. Pull the flap of the thin film out, and then remove it from the battery
compartment.
Removing the battery
1. Take the back cover off.
2. With your thumb or finger, lift the battery from the battery compartment.

compartment.

15Getting started
Charging the battery
The battery is partially charged when shipped. Before you turn on and start using HTC
EVO 3D, it is recommended that you charge the battery. Some batteries perform best
after several full charge/discharge cycles.
§ The battery is already installed in HTC EVO 3D when shipped. A thin film is
inserted between the battery and the compartment. You need to remove this film
before you can charge the battery.
§ Only the power adapter and USB sync cable provided in the box must be used to
charge the battery.
§ Do not remove the battery from HTC EVO 3D while you are charging it using the
power or car adapter.
1. Plug the power adapter into the USB connector.
2. Plug in the power adapter to an electrical outlet to start charging the battery.
As the battery is being charged, the notification LED shows a solid orange light. The
light turns to solid green when the battery is fully charged.
When you charge the battery and HTC EVO 3D is on, the charging battery icon is
displayed in the status bar. After the battery has been fully charged, the charging
battery icon turns to a full battery icon .
As a safety precaution, the battery stops charging when it overheats.

More things you may want to know
How does the phone display in 3D?
Your phone has an extra layer (a parallax barrier) on top of the display that simulates
3D depth. This allows your eyes to each see a different image through this layer,
simulating a sense of depth. When you move or tilt your phone at a different angle,
you may see the 3D image misalign and align again.
§ If you experience discomfort such as eye strain, dizziness, or nausea, immediately
stop using the 3D function until symptoms end.
§ Take periodic breaks to prevent these symptoms or impairment of vision.
§ It's not recommended for children under 7 to view 3D, since this might affect or
damage developing eyes.
§ Discuss specific concerns with your optometrist, ophthalmologist, or physician.
What's the maximum resolution for 3D and 2D photos?
The maximum capture resolution is different for 3D and 2D photos.
§ Your phone captures 3D photos at 2 megapixel resolution. This is fixed and
cannot be changed in the camera settings.
§ In the camera settings, you can choose the resolution you want to use for 2D
photos. The maximum resolution is 5 megapixels.
What's the maximum resolution for 3D and 2D videos?
