This just started happening a few days ago. Mobile data drops out..no 3g or 1x. Seems to happen on multiple roms, think its a sprint issue. Anyone else?

It's just a 3d issue I'm afraid...when I go from my 3d to photon, I notice better 3g connection

I've never had any issues like that. In fact I get service where I didn't before. Then again I'm bypassing sprint proxies.

Try calling sprint and have them reset your signal.

Did you happen to flash the vm firmware? That could cause your described issue.

What are you using to bypass the proxies? Where I live 3g is horrible and lately 4g is getting worse

Welcome to Sprint's 3g lol
Yea sprint is whack in some areas.. some areas it's decent. T-mobile 3g is always consistent and heck even faster than sprint 4g sometimes. They need to improve service because it's not reliable.
Its been like that for me since my release day OG...

soo sloow
will drop pick up in a couple days or get another carrier like Verison, flash Evo 3d to Straight Talk
yeah... sprint 3G has sucked for me for like the last 6 months. I think they are intentionally throttling down and degrading 3G quality in towers where 4G is available. that seems to be the trend I am noticing. This way, it encourages us to move off of those channels and free up traffic for others who dont have 4G. Just a theory. But my worst 3G speed / signal is in areas where 4g is available.
I broke my 3d and had to reactivate my old Hero but i cant get any data cuz the area where my account is active (Dallas 469 area code) is having issues so even all the way down here in houston i cannot get my phone to provision on the network because its pulling from Dallas where the problem is. So i have no data at all!!!! Rep said it would be next friday b4 its fixed but they will credit for the time im without data. WTF?
Sprint offered
received READY NOW service today hard reset, wipe and slate test. I'testing
Since I'm on my phone I'll make it quick does any one else lose complete signal of 4g? I'm not connected at all even though I'm on a signal 4g area oh and I've been s off for over a month and problems just started last week and it seems my phone never connects to 4g l

Try RUU'ing and then doing a factory reset in bootloader. That worked for me.

There's been a lot of problems with people staying connected to 4g in the past two months. There are already a few threads on it. I called up Verizon and they said they are working on a solution. Some people said they got a new red sim card that worked. I have heard its new so I haven't check to see if my sim switch was to the red one or not. I would reset the phone and try the sim switch if it isn't working call Verizon to add to those who have an issue. IRA not just rezounds its all 4g phones accross the country. Right now I am on 3g most the time in a 4g area (it was already 4g when I got the phone in novemeber no probs till June). Anyhow hope I helped.

changing my preferred network choice in the radio settings from "CDMA+LTE/EvDo" auto to "LTE,CDMA" makes a big difference when I'm having that problem in my area.
I woke up this morning to 4g. Mojave desert so cal. Never thought it would get here.

Is there a fix for the ultra bad reception for the new Evo? My 2year old OG evolution had much better reception overall...what's up with that?

I'm had the same problem. My calls would sound garbled on both ends. I exchanged my phone and it still not 100%.
So today I wake up and try to send an SMS and no luck there either. Called sprint and they say it's intermittent problems with the LTE network and it only affects LTE phones. Sucks!

Try updating radio ,profile and prl. like the avatar, G/D Steal your face, awesome man
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
Yeah updated a few times already. I just think reception of this new 'ultra' phone really sucks. Like I said OG Evo beat it by far but I had to upgrade because my charging port broke and I got tired of constantly switching batteries

Cant argue with you there,lol Ive got all of the Evo's(OG,3D AND LTE). OG is by far my favorite. Reception on my lte is pretty pretty good in bigger cities but where i live it kinda sucks. Might be your issue as well. Im on sprint but at home im on verizon/at&t towers may be the problem

Hey guys, i have no idea what has happened, but i no longer have 4g on my phone.
First, it takes forever to actually connect to Mobile data. It shows that mobile data is on, but it says "disconnected" for at least a minute or two. Second it only connects to 3g when i know im in a 4g area, and have always gotten 4g.
I have it set to LTE/CDMA mode and have sprint connnections optimizer turned off. I have also updated prl/profile to no avail. Please help
Thanks
It's been around the posts lately about the growing problem. Try ##3282#, profile, change to 1, hit menu, commit modifications... Maybe that will help.

Thanks, it was already set on 1.

Well... I'm in the same boat man. But I'm actually going on a couple hours of constant lte. Man, I did everything in the book. ##786# reset, hundreds of profile and prl updates...
I flashed back to an old nandroid of superlte and its been working.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
I'm basically having the same issue. The other thing on my end is I can't update prl or profile. This sucks.

This happened to me the other day. What i did was turn off my mobile data and put my phone on airplane mode for a few minutes. Then i turned everything back on and my LTE worked.
Woke up this morning and my 4g was back! Guess its a tower or software issue. It seems to be randomly disappearing for no reason. Hope you guys get it solved cuz if not then the phone should've been called EVO 3G if its gonna act like this. I'm sure I haven't seen the last of this problem
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
Been having similar issues for the last day or so as well. It sometimes requires me to restart the phone entirely before I get LTE back. Where are you guys around? Chicagoland area here.

Im in Dallas and since middle of December i can say that my Data speeds have gone back to pre network vision days..
Right now, in my office with the 4G icon, im getting less then a meg down and between 1 and 2 megs up.
Thats 3G speeds..
Its aweful..
Can anyone tell me how to keep this phone connected to lte? We just got lte where I live and I use open signal app and it showed lte so I drove right up to the tower. Within 250 feet. My friend with HTC one was connected with no problems. But my phone wouldn't connect. He was getting download speeds of 13-18 mbps. I know I read something on here about an app that helps and also something about##72786# or something like that to change some settings. Thanks

It's a known problem for the elte's, some of them have problems acquiring and maintaining an lte signal, while others don't. Mine does the same thing sometimes.
I have read some people have problems getting an lte signal on some non sense based Roms, not saying that's the problem in this particular situation, but just an fyi sort of thing...
Also, are you s-off? If yes, have you updated to the latest radios? It seems to have helped my phone pick up lte a lil more often...
