I also have battery optimization tweaks in effect. Running JuiceDefender, turning off services I don't need (4G, WiFi, GPS), lowering screen brightness, flashing ROMs/kernels that help optimize battery life... things like that.

.......................Thanks

that's the same thing I got. Two batteries and a charger for $15 from some guy off ebay. The batteries look pretty bootleg though, but they work great for me. Being the same size as the stock battery is even better than all that being $15.

He hung it 6th from the growing up over his set though so battery life should not be a problem.

I downloaded Fancy Widget - this thing looks awesome. The reflection clock skin looks slick.

i think default is all you get with the free version, but that's the setting i use it on anyway so you should be good.

Motorola Music Player. Very nice. Don't need to be rooted. Just download to your SD card and click on it to install

Download: New Motorola Music Player, Your New Best Friend for Media

A new music player from Motorola made it’s way onto XDA this weekend courtesy of member phoezies, that we’re super excited about. While we’re still not sure exactly where it came from, it’s possible that it came from either the new Blur found on the BIONIC, but is more likely... #Motorola #Music

Do you recommend rooting? I have the EVO and I pay the the warranty on the phone and hear rooting will void the warranty?

Also what major benefits do I get rooted the EVO, asking my cpu faster, I really don't care about the more personalization part.

Also is it known if the EVO will get the gingerbread 2.3 update when released?

You can always reset the EVO if you rooted it if you need to take it in.
