Guys, since updating to OTA ICS (mobilicity) I have really poor Bluetooth connection range. Even if I have phone in my shirt pocket it keeps getting disconnected..so I decided to try custom ROMs.....rooted, super cid and s-off with 1.93 hboot and latest radio. Same issue.....I am thinking it can't be hardware issue since I had really good connection with GB. Anyone having similar issues? Any solution?

So my tbolt has been acting weird lately. I am using synergy ROM with 2.5 radio and have never had any real issues. These past 3 days however my phone has not been cooperating well. When charging it will sometimes turn off and will not turn back on for a while. Also when I did get it turned on this morning I had 4g for a short amount of time then it went away. I now only have 3g and want to have my 4g back. Does anyone know if greensboro NC has no 4G today? And any solutions to my problem would be helpful!

if you updated the newest Synergy, it runs off of the latest 2.11 build. that being the case, the 2.5 radio might not work very well with it and i suggest switching to the new 3.5 radio.
For those who did the radio update, have you noticed Any difference in performance, battery time, or any noticeable improvement?
I have not updated yet, have no issues with the 1.07.550 radio just wanted to get some feedback.
Thanks.

I believe the ota was just to add wifi falling and improve wifi. It didn't have any performance nor battery inhancements.
The update just added the ability to use WiFi calling like the Sensation has, and maybe a few minor bug fixes. It wasn't a big update. I don't really notice anything different except I now have WiFi calling.

Thanks... Guess I will keep what I got, WiFi etc without the OTA..... I'm good, just seems there was nothing really different from what I have been reading.
You could root and apply a custom ROM.

actually the rom, kernel, radio, and baseband were updated too, the first two you can get by flashing a custom rom with the same base, the other two can only be achieved with the ota
i relocked my phone and flashed the latest tmobile ruu for the sole purpose of getting the new radio and i've noticed slightly better reception at home, by like a bar or two
another reason i flashed the ruu was that i had a few random reboots, now i havent had one after two weeks, restored from the backup i made before the ruu and flashed the same kernel, so it's def not the rom/kernel
I have noticed a little better reception in some places / rooms that I typically didn't receive much, if any, service before. Or it could just be a placebo and its all in my head.

Well, I get really good reception (68dBm-72dBm, even before the update) so, the only difference I saw was the WiFi calling. I didn't recall the baseband before the update, so I couldn't comment on it.

Ok so I'm running SuperLTE rom, unlocked and rooted on the 1.22 ota update for a bit now, just today my phone has been literally shutting off and turn WiFi on repeatedly. I thought maybe it was my router but no other device does this at all while connected. I don't get great data signal at my house so WiFi works well while just sitting around but that has been impossible today. Any help or advice or if you feel like mailing me a good size hammer, it will be greatly appreciated!

I was having the same issue. After testing on multiple routers it still had the problem. I was getting ready to take my phone back and performed the s-on steps and set everything back to stock, it's been perfect for the last 5 days. If you're having the same issue as me, I think it's software related. Hope this helps....

So are you saying you just relocked and set back to stock running ruu or something?

This helped me out with my wifi problems. Seems to be the way sense settings handle wifi.
Yeah, after running the ruu things were good. I've had the problem off and on since day one though. If yours just appeared I'm not sure if it's the same deal.
It may be your choice of custom ROM, however... If you are running a relatively new router, it will operate at two bands. Setting my WiFi to connect on the higher, 5 Ghz band on my Cisco EA4500, and setting WiFi to best performance solved this issue for me, without modifying system components. HTH!

Hate to make my first post an issue post, but I have searched all over XDA for the answer and couldnt find anything particular to my issue. I flashed CM10 to my phone and noticed my Bluetooth would turn on but would not pick up any devices in device search. I tried multiple speakers and headsets and nothing would work. I did a hard wipe and installed MeanBean thinking that it was a ROM related issue. Tried it again on MeanBean and same issue. I tried fixing permissions and Bluetooth Fix app and still nothing. Can anyone help?
(I am on the latest radio/firmware and v.06 MeanBean)
Same exact issue !

My evo lte has been doing this for as long as i can remember also. I've been through dozens of roms and full wipes and still no bluetooth at all, not even recognizable.
Try deleting everything that is paired or was paired and then reboot. You may have Bluetooth defects if that still doesnt work. I have used on many sense roms, cm10, 10.1 varients with no problems. Hope that helps.

Im having the same issue
I have updated my radios and noticed that i lost my Bluetooth connectivity. I was originally running meanrom ics until JB came around. Then updated my radios and moved to JB MeanBean. I did an Ruu and got it back to stock. No dice, stock rom Bluetooth still cannot find or be found. I tried my laptop ipad macbook car audio everything and nothing works. I ve never had any issues with my phone and it seems after Jelly Bean Bluetooth is non existent.
Currently I am running
Twrp 2.3.1
Arc Reactor Kernel
MeanBean3.09
Is there a way to see if the actual Bluetooth is borked or if its working properly, "if its sending a signal"?
Is it possible that something happened when upgrading that the BlueTooth became corrupted? or can it just plain old stop working, died?
At that point if it's Borked on several roms
Then it's time to take it into sprint. That's a manufacturer defect / issue and they should swap it out. Assuming you bought legit from them

Yes I bought it legit when it came out. I also have the insurance plan with Sprint. The only thing I'm worried about is the new hboot and unlocking/rooting the new phone .
But I guess if it means a new phone then I guess its best... To get a fresh new evo

I have been thinking that radio performance after the latest kitkat update does not seem to be as good as the previous version.
i seem to notice that the phone takes little longer to switch to 4G/LTE signal compared to the previous version. I have not tested if the phone has problems maintaining the 4G signal, does anyone else notice this or any other sort of radio issues?
About a month ago i was sitting with my friend with his original HTC one and noticed the same behavior and i think that has now replicated to the MAX too
its annoying to find the signal stuck at 3G and the internet speeds are terribly low in 3G when compared to 4G.
anyone ...
I'm on Verizon in the US so I don't have 4.4 KitKat yet, but what you are describing sounds a lot like what I've been experiencing for a couple months. I was hoping that the KitKat update for Verizon would contain newer radios that performed better, but it's interesting that you're also having radio issues with the One max.
Could dropping the phone result in this sort of behavior? That's all I can really think of, as most other users don't seem to have too much trouble with the radios on this device.
phone is just as awesome as it was before the update.
sprint user stock non rooted.

On sprint myself. My radios have improved I've tested several close to dead spots and data is more consistent.

That's good to hear. It makes me hopeful for the Verizon OTA, if they ever decide to let us have it.
