Back during the hot days of summer, we told you about the 30fps framerate cap that held back the EVO 4G. If you recall, because that framerate was the best that the device could handle when the HDMI port is active, HTC decided to keep the rate even when the port is not being used. After some negative customer comments about the cap, it was decided that the problem would be rectified.
This past week, a firmware upgrade rolled out that took care of the framerate cap. To make sure, Engadget ran a test on an EVO 4G which showed a framerate of 52fps during a benchmark test.

We had reported in the middle of last week that the upgrade would fix a calendar event problem that EVO 4G users were experiencing, as well as correct problems the phone had with syncing multiple Gmail accounts. We are happy to report that both of those bugs have been exterminated by the firmware upgrade.
