I notice everytime I turn my Wifi on, the 4g Icon still shows. However my speeds run at wifi speeds. The 4g icon will occasionally disappear but comes back from time to time. I'm running the rooted stock rom.
Is there a reason for this?
Thanks in advance.
Ive noticed this sometimes also, i just check off mobile network if i have wifi on, just to be safe, and it goes away.

That was my question as well. I just got the phone coming from evo but haven't root it yet. So, I'm running stock without root and have the same thing. Could anyone chime in on that?

I run juicedefender so I don't have this issue, but they both show if in on WiFi and download an mms message, it only downloads through 4g so it cones in long enough to download the message and goes away.
I have same issue weird thing is my wife has same phone and hers never comes up when connected to WiFi. Only when a picture is coming through how ever mine won't go away at all its annoying
I'm stock no root

I am guessing you guys have tmo my account app installed. This is a crappy app and uses 4g (apparently to make a secure connection) even when WiFi is on. So whenever you see 4g and WiFi both, just goto running services in settings and stop my account app and 4g icon should go away.
Getting rid of this app and other bloat is one of the main reasons for me to root this phone.

Little bit more info needed:
Rom?
HBOOT?
Kernal?
Enable always on mobile data in your mobile network settings. Otherwise, it only turns on when a request is sent.

I get this sometimes. I'm on a stock, un-rooted phone, with the latest OTA. I will get this even if I'm in the middle of doing something, and click on a new link. The 3G icon is just grey, and I get no connection. Never an error, about no connection. It's been happening to me for a while, and it even did this on previous phones. So, for me, it's the network, and not the Evo 3D.
*I do have "Enable always-on mobile data checked*
So I've has this ongoing issue and it never really bugged me until today, and want to see if anyone has any ideas. Sometimes (more often then not) I am unable to activate 4g on my photon. It simply refuses to start the radio whether its done via widget on home screen or settings. The 4g icon will flash for a half second then goes away. The only way to fix is to either kill all tasks (including system tasks using systempanel) or a phone shut down and reboot. Now, I understand it might be an app interfering with it, but I don't know what it would be. I am rooted stock, and i do have roam control, although this did happen to me before I got roam control I believe.
Any suggestions would be appreciated. Thanks.

Do you tether with it? I get the same thing whenever I tether with 4g. Usually a reboot also does the trick for me too.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
I do Tether but not regularly. Its not because wifi tether is just installed at all is it?
Sent from my MB855 using Tapatalk
I have the exact same 4g radio issue. I do have wifi tether installed but rarely use it. Happens to me every few days and rebooting is the only thing that had worked for me. I've tried clearing out ram but I usually end up having to reboot to fix it. Very annoying!
{edit} I'm on stock 198_6 rooted.

I apologize as I'm certain this has been asked already. I just got my EVO LTE today. I'm using the Android xda app and I can't find any way to confine a search to a specific forum. When I type in my search, the app searches all forums at CDs!
When I'm away from a wifi signal, and I try to use any app that requires a data connection, I get a no data signal error.
I have tried switching to cdma only, but that does not work. When I check in settings, it also says, "no data connection".
So 1. What's up with that?
Bonus 2. Is there a way to search in the Android xda app and limit it to one forum?
Thanks.

Have you called sprint? Stupid question but you have mobile data turned on right?

I have a co-worker who just got this phone 2 days ago with the same problem. He called the store, told him what was going on and they said bring it back and they gave him a new one. Well it didn't fix the problem. Now they are saying its cuz Sprint is still working on making things work on ICS.. they have also said its because the update hasn't come to make it a working 4G LTE phone yet.. my friend is a EVO fan and is trying to stick it out, he has a 14 day buyers remorse period which he can exchange it for a different phone which he might go to the SGS2 .. any info would be great. Thanks on advance

Yes, mobile data is on. That's where it says, "no data connection". If you long press, you have the option for cdma only.
I haven't yet called Sprint because I figured this issue must have been posted here and someone had a fix. Also had fear Sprint would not know what the problem was. After the above post, I guess I have a good reason!

In the "mobile networks" settings try checking the "domestic data" option
Yep, domestic data is also on.

I had the same problem and used ##3282# to delete profile and couldn't get it to reconnect. Come to find it is was because i was connected to an airave. I went up the street and updated the profile again and it started working instantly. Haven't had any more problems since.
Same problems here - I kept going into roaming mode with full bars, then out of roaming and zero bars. Couldn't use any mobile data or make calls.
Kept having to update the PRL - like every hour or so. Eventually, updating the PRL stopped fixing the problem. Resetting the phone got the mobile connection working again but it still wigs out after awhile and updating the PRL isn't helping. Only resetting makes it work. Ugh.
I'm on wifi a lot and the wifi radio seems to work like a champ.
Updating the PRL and Profile and then rebooting the phone solved the problem for me.
i am headed to the sprint repair center at lunch for this issue. It will work great as long as I do not turn on the wifi..as soon as it connects to a wifi source it drop the mobile network like it should..but when the wifi goes away it will not reconnect to mobile network..it will say "turning on" then just go to disconnected...sucks. Hope they can either fix it or provide a new one.
Anyone get this while downloading music, podcasts and roms?

This happens to me all the time.... almost always on Wifi... drives me nuts!
Do you have the WiFi option for best performance activated? Did you take the recent OTA update that includes WiFi fixes, or are you running a flashed ROM that has the OTA baked in?

This happens to me also...I noticed that it mostly happens when I'm actually using my phone and downloading something...I can almost guarantee that it will not happen as long as you are not using the phone and it is on the charger with the "do not sleep while charging" option enabled...if you're not near a charger then I typically just keep the screen on buy pulling the status bar down, leaving it down and periodically tapping the screen

This happens to for any download except apps from Google play. ROMS themes radios anything over about 10mb. It happens on WiFi 3g plugged in off charger. I've got all WiFi settings properly. I can't find anything that you s the culprit. It can't be a signal thing cause I'm locked on WiFi and it happens. It can't be a memory thing cause I have tried it right after a clean install with at least 2GB of room. Its really frustrating. I wish someone could point us in a direction. I've tried different browsers different ROMS that I already have....nothing.
I use an AOSP (paranoid android) based ROM but I've had issues with this on cyanogen mod also. Wi-Fi doesn't seem to connect very well and I'm wondering If there is a fix it like the GPS fix that I can flash?
Thank you!

I have the same issue with my Gateway router (AT&T Uverse). Once I get it connected it's usually pretty stable unless the phone sleeps for awhile, then I have to reconnect. When connecting to other networks I don't have this issue.

Yeah it is an issue with CM and ATT 2wire router. Your options are to get a new router or keep hitting connect in the WiFi settings like an idiot until it finally connects. This was so aggravating for me when I had ATT.

Me either. Never had this on sense. Now that GPS is fixed this is the last major issue.
Although it does moderately make me feel better to see it's not just me!
