HTC EVO 4G's HDMI port is to blame for 30fps refresh rate cap

mini hdmi is the worst idea i've ever heard. its not small enough and building a port for it to go into would be way too big. the hardware to make something like that isn't as simple as just making it the same exact size as the object that is going into it. oh and just so you know it is as easy as a software fix. i've rooted my phone and gotten 50 fps although it wasn't a legit fix. a lot of things weren't working since they needed more software info from htc.

what do you mean you'd take 30 fps video over an hdmi port? it has a 30 fps screen cap, so if that's what you want you already have it.

That's like saying I'm going to buy a car capable of getting 45 mpg, but because I've only had 10mpg before; I'm OK with the new one only getting 20 mpg. If the phone is capable of more then 30fps, why not make adjustments to insure it performs at maximum speed.

they are talking about the screen not the video capture. that is pretty sad that you can't read that. i've rooted my phone and gotten 50 fps with the cap off which is still pretty slow since most screens go at 60 fps.
