    Your heading says EVO 4G but your pic and Software are 4G LTE. Are you stating that the operation works on the original EVO 4G or is it strickly the LTE version? If you are stating it will work for the 4G also does that include the ones who took the latest OTA and are on 5.07 software or is it just for 4.67?
