TL;DR Based on these mentioned instructions (How can I install the latest version of Evince?) you have added the PPA ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3.

This package contains (currently) no version of evince.

The most recent version, you can install in Ubuntu 14.04 is version 3.12. For version 3.16 you need Ubuntu 15.04.

You have to add the PPA ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging. But remember that GNOME is completely updated to v3.12.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3-staging

From the PPA description:

This PPA will be used to test uploads before they are copied to the
main GNOME 3 PPA.

and the PPA ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3, which you've already added.

sudo add-apt-repository ppa:gnome3-team/gnome3

After you start the following commands:

sudo apt-get update

sudo apt-get upgrade
