OK I'm giving my Photon to my cousin who is also on sprint I used my update to get a Nexus S 4g so can I just give phone to him to activate or what?

If it was removed from your account clean, yes. Normally if you just change phones there shouldn't be any issues.
my wife has the ns4g and I have the photon.. IMO the photon is a much better device.. FWIW
Bought my wife the EvO 3d the other day, up from a HERO CDMA. Noticing that without exception the signal on the 3d is dramatically worse than the hero was. The 3d is bone stock. Any suggestions?
Thanks

this is a known issue htc needs to address. the evo 3d generally has a worse signal than other phones since the antennae is at the bottom (where u hold it). if u cant deal with it you might wanna get a different phone. im considering it
Have you updated your prl? Sprint pushed one that was super slow but fixed it. My 3d gets better coverage than any other phone I've owned. Hell I tether to my wifes nexus s 4g so she can speed up. Your prl should start with a 2 I think.

yeah, she's on the most recent prl, must be the antennae problem, but signal is just rotten on this phone.

I had this issue for a while but I am running 11115 prl and I have notice the difference... I am rooted and running Virus infected rom and I am happy for now... you could try rooting it and trying difference prl or roms it may make a difference...

Really? That's a bit of bad news for me.
I'd be very interested to hear from any UK Evo owners regarding the phone signal, is it as much of a problem with GSM too?
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 had this phone since November & never a issue until now

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
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

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
