How to Setup and Use the Speakerphone on the HTC EVO

The HTC EVO 4G smartphone includes two speakers: the front speaker that plays back in-call audio, and the back speaker used for music and speakerphone sound. Using the speakerphone lets you set your phone down and still carry on a conversation while you are working on something else, such as preparing a meal or caring for a child. You can activate the speakerphone after answering an incoming phone call or after calling someone else.

Instructions

1. Press the "Power" button. Slide the unlock tab down to unlock the phone screen. Press the "Home" button.

2. Press the "Phone" button. Call one of your contacts. If you do not want to speak with one of your contacts, call a 1-800 number (like the Sprint Customer Service phone number, 888-211-4727) to speak to an automated teller.

3. Press the "Volume Up" button until the "In Call Volume" slider is at its maximum setting.

4. Tap the "Speaker" button to activate the speakerphone. Repeat Steps 3 and 4 to maximize the speakerphone volume whenever you make or receive a call.
