Good news if your rocking an HTC EVO 3D or planning on picking up a Samsung Conquer 4G -- both are soon to see some updates according to a page from the latest Sprint playbook.  We're pouring through it, and this one caught our eye.

The EVO 3D is scheduled to have an update to version 2.08.651.2 sitting and waiting for users to go get on Aug 18, and will begin being pushed on Aug 23.  While it's not a major upgrade (no, you're not getting Ice Cream Sandwich just yet), it looks like it addresses some bugs and should be welcomed by many.  Fair warning -- that shiny new bootloader crack and root method may be patched in this one.

The Conquer 4G looks to be getting a security patch on release day, bumping it to build Gingerbread EG15.  Specifics are lacking, other than an enhancement/fix to device security.  Nobody is going to complain about that.

Thanks, anon!
