No 3g when disconnecting from WiFi. - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

So I'm asking to confirm whether this is a bug or a problem with my phones hardware. Any time I'm on WiFi for an extended period of time and then turn it off my mobile network won't connect. The only way to fix it is with a reboot and then it connects immediately. My wifes phone is completely stock and she doesn't have this issue. I'm rooted with s-off.

i fought with that problem ever since i've had the phone, installed the update released yesterday and it's fixed.

since your wife's phone is stock she probably has benefited from that, you'll have to un-root/return to stock to apply the update or wait until someone here concocts a way for you to apply this update, or at least the radio update that it contains.

I flashed the radios yesterday and still had the issue. Flashed a stock Rom this morning based on the new ota so we will see what happens. The weird thing is my wife didn't have the issue before the ota. Thanks for the reply.

yeah, it seems just from reading around that some did and some didn't. i almost wonder if it wasn't related to some glitch when applying the previous update. i know that when i first powered on my phone to activate it i briefly saw some message about failing to apply an update or something.
i think the radio update may have only been half of it; seems that some of HTC's performance and power management stuff may have been to blame as well.
i can tell you that it's been several hours over 24 since i did the update and haven't had to reboot the phone once to regain 3G. before i could shut down wifi at any random time through the day and mobile network would sit there churning on "turning on..." now i can turn it off and on at will and it connects pretty much instantly.

Just something the phone does not a bug and

Glad its working now, I'm rooted with Fresh 1.0 since it came out. Only update is PRL. I have always switched instantly to 3G coming off of WiFi. Never had that issue so must be something software related on your cell, I guess confirmed by your update.

A Guy over on the "other forum" is having major data dropping issues. I'm curious about the update and wondering why I haven't rec'd it. I'm totally stock. Went into about phone and system updates but it says I'm up to date. But I'm on .744?? Guess they're pushing them slowly as usual...

To get tethering to work with your RAZR. First download the wireless tethering app 3.1 beta 7. Install of course. Phone must be rooted. Also download rom
manager and open rom Manager and and go to. Fix permissions let that run. And the restart phone. Now tether your heart out.

I updated a moment ago from stock to stock.
So far it seems to be smoother. I meant really reminding me of the word "silky"
but I can't get Vibrant Feedback of stock multitouch keyboard to work even I ticked it at settings.
Sound feedback of the multi touch keyboard is fine.
Anyone else having issue like this?
The physical key haptic feedback when I press anything is still there. So I assume it is the software issue only.

I'm 100% stock and after the update its running very smooth!! The stock launcher seems to have gotten faster?? Camera and over all performance is better. I don't know about data yet because VERIZON'S DATA IS DOWN AGAIN! but other then that its very good for me. Been running this for about 10 hours.

There have been a lot of 3G and 4G outages in the past several days. Make sure you're not a victim of that. There are DEFINITE issues this morning. I don't have the update installed, totally stock phone - and yesterday and today I have no 4G at work. I'm on a 4th floor by a window. I normally have a great 4G connection here.
Everyone Else: There's no trick you can do at this point to get the update. It's not released officially, it's only been sent out to a few beta testers. You are either going to get it by checking for the update, or not. Eventually they'll release it to everyone soon.
I'm in the same boat as mistawolfe, the update has made things much worse for me on the data side. On my way to work today, I had NO data for more than half the time, and only 3G the other half of the time. While at home, I have always had strong 4G and that has not changed after the update. But at work yesterday after I applied the update, it was the same thing, only 3G or NO data. Same today, more than half the time I have no data, and the other half only 3G. Going back and forth between no data and data is unacceptable. 3G/4G switching is fine, but this is horrible. 1/2 the time I can't even use the data. Terrible. I would not recommend this update.

WiFi Won't Disconnect Issue

Hey guys, I'm new here so let me know if Im messing up any board rules or customs!
I did a quick search but didn't hit on any exact results... I connect to my home or work WiFi without any drops (which is a whole other situation) but once I leave the range of the WiFi network my EVO doesn't realize and stays connected which means I won't get emails because there is no active connection... So far my only fix has been to turn my WiFi on and off again.. is anybody else seeing this?
It's not the end of the world just a minor nuisance! Im set to auto frequency, best performance and always keep WiFi on during sleep. I feel like that last one might be the issue but I don't want to go to 3G on standby!
Thanks

I have read about some other people having the same issue here. Wifi as a whole is very glitchy on this device right now and hopefully fixes will be part og hts's fist update.
I am experiencing the same issue. Would love to know how to resolve it.
Sent from my EVO using XDA
I'm also experiencing this. It is slightly annoying, but not a deal breaker. I'm sure it'll be fixed soon enough.
Mine does this as well, but goes a step further. Once I leave the Wifi area I can toggle Wifi off to drop the connection and use 3G. However, when I go back to a wifi area, any network ive previously connected to states not in range. I can pick up new networks, but not existing networks. The only solution is to reboot the device.
Is something the HTC set for battery saving, what happens when you connected to wifi with any device is that it check every 60-90-180seconds (wherever the programmer set) so your phone won't check right away, but when it does it will disconnect, every phone has it but probably HTC put up a high number that way it saves more battery

This is starting to get quite frustrating. If I leave the house and need to use navigation or anything requiring data I have to toggle wifi off. Has anyone figured this out or is it potentially a hardware issue where I should seek a replacement?
I made a thread about returning my EVO for another one. I had the same issue. The second EVO is working perfect so far. Way better battery life with this one too.

I spoke with HTC yesterday and they were not aware of a widespread issue with this. When I get more time I will dig into it a bit more as I believe it can probably be fixed with mods to wpa_supplicant. In the meantime, I will be sending some logs to HTC as well.

It's definitely software-based, as it didn't happen with MaXimus 2.1 or CM10, but DOES happen with MaXimus 2.2 and the stock ROM. Oddly, it never happened with the stock ROM before now.
Does it happen to you on more than one WiFi network?

Screen freeze on internet

Every once in a while, my screen will go white when I try to connect to the internet or the play store. Back button won't work, only the home button will. Then I have to restart my phone to access the internet. This has been happening since the update. Anyone else?
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
Yes I see this also. I wounder if it is Sprint network?
I've seen this also, it seems to do this in any browser that i've thrown at it. I don't think it is the network as a web page that isn't loading due to traffic shouldn't lag the phone. When mine does it i can't even turn the screen off until its done being stuck. I was trying meanrom so i updated to the newest firmware and baseband, but i reverted back to an old nandroid of charmelon rom which is 1.13.
The nandroid didn't seem to restore the baseband nor do i think it was designed to, but long story short i'm still on the newer baseband and being that the common point between you and I is probably that, i'm going to guess there is some kind of issue in the radio thats locking up the phone.
I'm going to flash back down to the original radio and see if it changes things.
I'm on stock.

you're on the update, so you're on the 1.22 firmware with 1.05 something radio. I was saying that it might have had something to do with the radio.

I've just flashed back down to the older radio so i'll have to try it a few days and see if thats even the issue.
I'm not sure if theres anything to be done on a stock unit, unless maybe you're able to run an RUU of the original rom and have it restored back to the day you recieved it.

[Q] How To Force ICS Update

Hey all,
I have been unable to update my sister's bolt to ICS since it started rolling out a couple days ago. The phone is stock rooted with S-on and has an unlocked 1.05 hboot. I have done nothing to the phone except debloat. The recovery is stock. When I go to settings/software update and select check new, it appears as if it checks for a couple seconds but the popup saying whether or not it has new software to download never appears. I know with the galaxy nexus I was able to force pull the update by clearing the data for settings and turning airplane mode on and off of something ridiculous like that. Is there anything I can do with the bolt to get this thing to update? When I gave my sis the phone I tried to set it up so it could take the big ics update once it arrived (back in September ) so this is bothering me that the phone won't update.
Thanks for any help.
The reason is because you debloated. The update requires that ALL stock apps be on the phone at the time of the update. If they aren't there it will fail. If I were you I would get s off and flash the ics that Santod posted in the dev section.

The update includes fixes for devices that may become unresponsive and/or power down while sitting idle on rare occasions. It also enhances security to protect against malware vulnerability. You will receive a notification on your phone to update.
NOTE - You must have updated to Android version 4.0 to receive notification of the new software update

There's at least as much cya and marketing motivation involved as anything else.
I previously rooted and flashed Siyah 4.3.3 which resolved my issue with the sleep of death. This seems to prevent this new update from installing as when the phone reboots it shows the Siyah boot image and then boots back into the OS, when I unlock the phone it tells me that the update failed to install. I'm not in a hurry to install an update that resolves something I've fixed through other means, but I thought I'd share for those interested.

This has been happening to me for the past few months, on more than "rare occassions" though. I never knew what to call it until I saw people on here refer to it as Sleep of Death. Yep, sounds about right. And it would rapidly drain my battery when it happened.
I've successfully updated, so hopefully this will take care of it. It gets VERY annoying! And all the much worse since I use my phone for my alarm, haha. I have my wife's as a backup though.
Anyone pull the modem yet?
Sent from my SGH-I777 using Tapatalk 2
I'm only a curious now, about whether this fixes the SOD. After hours on the phone with ATT and Samsung, and a few factory resets and a new phone, it was still doing it. And each time I called them about it, they'd say they were not aware of such a problem. Anyway, not an issue anymore for me, since going to Task's AOKP ROM, which got me so many better features than an ATT update ever would have - warranty or no.
The only reason why this OTA was pushed was because a ton of users were posting this issue on the ATT forums for 4 months straight. Even then ATT pushes an OTA for 4.0.4 instead of using one of the many 4.1.2 firmwares from Samsung.

My understanding is that it is up to Samsung to produce the firmware, and because it's a carrier-branded device, I have a hard time believing that they'd do that unless instructed to.
Really? You think Samsung is the one making the decision? Its really the carrier.
Can someone pull the modem from this update? Pm or post a download link once extracted please.
