Many HTC EVO 4G users have been facing issues when trying to use Qik since the day the device launched. The version specific for the EVO 4G equips the phone with video-calling capabilities, but more than just a handful of those trying to use the feature couldn’t even get it to work.
Most of those problems should be fixed in the latest version of the app. Version 3.54 includes bug fixes for connectivity issues, gets rid of that annoying SMS verification requirement (pretty significant seeing as how Qik’s servers have failed to send the SMS to a large number of those requesting it), and has tweaks for those on weaker data signals.
Unfortunately they did away with one feature that some may have enjoyed: chat archives are no longer an option. There’s been no indication on why this may be, but they’ve committed to adding this feature in a future update. Find the updated version in the Android market now.
