Can't run Speedtest.net -- "Network communication issues" - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

So, I'm trying to run the SpeedTest.net application, and when it goes to find the closest server, it keeps saying "Network communications issues." Is anyone else having this problem? I can browse, and everything seems to be working fine. This is the only thing that's not working.

Did you get the new update of the speedtest app?

Sake issue here. Buddy of mine Tampa had the issues last night on WiFi AND 3G but has since been resolved for him. I am having issues on both too. Has not been resolved for me yet. He said that afterwards his speeds climbed to above 2MB on Sprint 3G after it was resolved though.

Yeah, it's up-to-date.

I had this as well but it seems to work now maybe they are jumping to ipv6 or something

Well, it hasn't worked since I tried last night at home, and now I'm here at my office 30 miles away.

speedtest.net isn't working? I think we should exchange our phones out for a new one

I have this problem too. I'm not certain if this is the case for you, but it is for me, my 3G service disconnects every minute or so for some reason. Because of that, it is difficult for the speedtest to complete.

It doesn't do that for me. I've got a constant 3G signal.

I had this problem too.
I had this app added from a mybackup pro. Uninstalled and reinstalled speedtest and all is working fine.
I have had the same thing happen with other apps...most work fine, but a few require the uninstall/reinstall routine.

Yea, tried that a little bit ago and actually worked HaHa

i kept running into network errors when i first got the phone but since changing from LTE/CDMA to just CDMA the error has yet to come back, when i drop signal for longer then 2-3 min it asks for my time zone

It's working for me now... Weird.

same here. Google still isn't loading even though the IPv6 trail run is over :/
It seems like only a few people are having this problem.
I checked out the ipv6 Google test page, it says that my connection isn't ready for IPv6 (4g), when tested on 3g it says no problems detected. This seems pretty permanent to me, so I'm going to best buy today to see if any other 4g devices on Verizon are having the same problem.

same exact thing is happening to me
this blows
I'm from LA (90024) and am having the exact same problem... I noticed it when Google Voice just wasn't working for me at all on 4G (both the application and google.com/voice). When I switch to 3G both load fine...
I tried the ipv6 test and have the same result - failure on 4G LTE and just fine on 3G.
Is this problem just specific to socal?

Super annoying text app!

Im using stock because I love it, but all of my recieved texts are coming in from an hour later, even though my phone says current time. So when i reply, my messages aren't at the bottom. I cleared data, rebooted, no go. Anyone know how to fix?
It was working fine until i went across the border from eastern timezone to central, then the phone has ever since had this bug...!

The only thing the OTA actually did was update a few apps... the phone doesn't reboot after finishing or anything. Doesn't change any of the radios or anything from what I noticed.
Would a factory reset fix this? I'm not roaming anymore and it's still displaying an hour later.

download "sms time fix" from the market like jaskwith said, set it to use phone time and BAM! your troubles are gone. this is an easy fix. no need for a hard reset
I recommend simply updating your Profile and PRL on your device. I had that happen to a friend and once I updated those two things for her, her problem went away.

FYI New OTA Update

Came out today, I tried OTA but doesn't show up, hopefully pushing out soon. fixes
WIFI connecting..
I tried updating manually and got nothing....

Wifi has this weird issue where it wants to scan my home network even though its connected a million times to it. Almost like it forgets lol. I usually have to disable then enable it; not a big deal i guess but still a bug for sure!

Mine does the same but after I wake the phone I have no problems. Maybe a 3 second delay reconnecting.

Release notes would be great. Photon WIFI/VPN is putting out extra packets which are then blocked by some routers. If the wireless router is used as a router and not an AP and IP6 is disabled, the problem seems to be corrected (i.e.: no reconnection failures in over a week when it used to happen every 2/3 days. See motorola photon forum for more details.)
My wifi seems to work pretty good at work and at home. I havent noticed the phone constantly scanning but I havent been looking for it either.
as of today my phone will not connect to wifi at all... release notes and date would be very much appreciated.

Me either always works and works great, also pretty fast as well. My issue is the voice/3G radio locking up and then the phone reboots.
so it seems some are having a WIFI issue and others voice/3G... rather odd thing going on there.

I'm in Atlanta (where 4G is SUPPOSED to be active) but even my 3G speeds have been dramatically slow.
I flashed another rom in hopes it would help but nothing.
Not sure but I think its a problem with the app and our phone.

specifically, adding back in the HTTPSD setting fixed it (I had thought RTSP would have fixed it)
Guess i never used youtube enough or never used it while on 3G/4GLTE.
I can confirm that with the edited info on 4G LTE on my EVO LTE that youtube didnt work.
Put the original settings back in and it does work on 4G LTE..
Thanks for pointing that out.
I am having the same problem with my youtube. It used to work a few weeks ago. You guys said you had fixed this problem but I don't really understand what you guys did. i am rooted on MeanRom and am on the Cricket carrier.
