  1. No one hurt

    Made Mar 26, 2014, sent to the company Apr 2, 2014, published by CPSC Apr 16, 2014

    The product, in the report: HTC Evo 3D

    I have an HTC Evo 3D phone. all factory pieces.. I had it on the charger and one evening, smelled something warm in the bedroom.. I looked around and noticed the back of the case popped off. I then looked at the Lithuim-Ion battery and it was bulging out of the case and very hot to the touch.

    I unplugged it from the wall and the battery had increased in size,

    I contacted HTC via chat ([REDACTED] - [REDACTED]) and was told no big deal, just to recycle the phone. They advised me that there was no risk with that and that there is no liquids, so there is no fire risk.

    i pointed out I work as an IT analyst in healthcare and have dealt with the same type of battery issues with laptops and other electronics. There have been 40+ recalls since 2002 for this type of situation. My concern is if left on the charger longer, would a catastrophic battery issue happen with a fire. I’ve seen reports on the internet about the same battery issue.. and HTC says there is no issue.

    Thanks!! I still have the phone in my possession :)
