I'm currently on vacation in Kauai, Hawai'i, and have the exact same issue. I called Sprint, and they blamed the lack of towers in this remote area. Where are you located?
I'm running stock rooted, on the latest OTA, BTW.

Had the same problem earlier last month in between Panama City Beach and the state of Alabama. I could make calls, but getting any data wasn't happening. Maybe the towers up there don't roam for data, just voice?

Since taking the OTA I have been having random radio issues. Roaming when I'm not in a roaming area, drops in 3g, error code. 78 data call failure.
Anyone else take the ota and now have radio issues?

Have had the same issues
I had the same issue yesterday and spent over 40 minutes on the phone with Sprint to have them tell me "they have not heard of those issues" and that someone call me back to set an appointment to take it to a store to have checked out. well the guy called me back and told me it has been a common problem. i ended up just hard resetting the phone and so far all is well. so my advise is to try hard resetting it

My phone does this on the regular. Before and after the update. Nothing new, just something we have to deal with until someone figures out how to fix it

Ive called sprint 4 times, I've factory reseted like 3x, and one sprint rep said there was a tower issue, one said it was the ota, one said I needed to update my prl and profile. Doi. And one told me to use my msl and de proxy (right?) Haha

Well sprint canceled my account for roaming using to much data. I don't know why? I have heard of people getting canceled because of using verizon prl but I have never I have been using 12117. They will not turn it back on I have tried everything so I have to have my mom add me a phone this sucks. So watch out.

Did you force roam or roam alot? Show us your data usage for last month. I've been on corporate prl's since the evo 4g and I'm good still. I rarely roam though and I'm on wifi when I'm at home.

You've got to keep track of your roaming regardless. I've gotten pretty high up on roaming some months just from using a normal PRL. The corporate PRLs, more so. I'm sorry to hear that you had that happen to you though.
Did your mother be like I told you so you little turd head? Lol
They did the Same to me but i also used 5gb of roaming. Now i am trying to sell my EVO3d and shift. I switched to att and love my Samsung note and i get 5 gb per line not to bad i just have to slow down a little.

isn't getting cancel a good thing?
I got a formal letter from Sprint a few months back stating that if my data roaming continued they'd cancel my account.
I was using the 11115 PRL + the Force Roam option I added in Warm TwoPointThree. About 2gb of data roaming a month. (98% of my data was roaming)
I have since stopped force roaming..
data roaming......that is something that seems the trend here.
i assume they ALWAYS warn before canceling right?

I never seen my phone go to roam. I used 11115 on my EVO 4G also. I don't know how much I was using I will try and find out. It kinda worked out my bill was like 150 amonth and now its only 60 to add 2 phones to my moms. And they wiped out my bill but still a pain in the ass.

Doesn't Sprint charge you an arm and a leg for Roaming? How can you guys roam so much?

No, they don't charge for roaming. Unless you are international roaming, then that is different.

I've never been charged for Voice Roaming within the USA.
Sprint is great if you don't abuse it
Whoa, this whole time I thought they did charge you. I stayed in a cabin in North Carolina once where I had no signal and I disabled my roaming in fear I would get a heavy bill when I got back. Thank you for the heads up.
If you get a voice roam charge call and they will wipe it no questions asked. They blabbed something about its an issue with their billing. Yep sure...
What is the difference between a normal and a corporate prl?

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
My phone will disconnect 3g and just stay off till I reboot or go in and manually turn off the internet connection and turn it back on..
Sprint is trying to tell me that everybody is having the same problem and there should be an OTA sent out to fix the problem..
Thanks

Mine does it as well . Don't know if its the phone or sprint working on the towers . I called and they told me they were working on towers in my area. They said they shut one off and the other towers around there have to pick up for the one that's getting worked on. But its annoying

Yep, I have the same problems. The 3G connection is a joke. I was dealing Sprint yesterday to get my phone replaced and the guy asked how I liked it. I told him the 3G connection sucks and he said they were working on the towers.

I've replaced my phone twice! I'm glad I'm not he only one that's having problems..
Another problem I'm having..
Weather widget won't update(everything in enabled) and I'm getting roaming notices every 20 min.
How do we know when LTE is live on the phone? Does the icon show?
Yeah having the same issues as you guys. 3G will just suddendly drop & I'll start roaming for no reason. I'm not doubting that Sprint is working on the towers but it is also something going on with this phone because my wife's E4GT is having none of these issues.
LTE shouldn't have anything to do with our 3g connection should it?
If they are goofing with towers than maybe. I'm just curious how do we know when Lte is live on our phones.
Ever since I tried unlocking the bootloader and installing a recovery my phone will not connect to 3G. It will either have no data connection at all or 1X. I have done so many update profiles and update PRL's and nothing seems to help.
The only way I can get 3G to come back now is if I set the network mode to "CDMA Only" then 3G comes back, but when I first got the phone I had it in "CDMA/LTE" and 3G was fine. I don't know what to do now.
Having the exact same 3G issues as the rest of you. Sprint had me reset the phone provisioning with the MSL code, do a PRL update, and Firmware update and nothing worked. My 3G down speeds avg. 0.24 Mbps and cuts out every now and then. The Rep said she would call me back today to see if the changes helped. The bad thing is we are all patient about not having LTE yet but it is ridiculous that our 3G speeds are the worst in the business now and almost nonexistent. ATT, T-Mobile, and VZ should make a commercial saying who cares if you have unlimited data when you have the slowest data and barely have data.

Anybody ever have a problem were their mobile data stops working? WiFi and voice works just fine.My phone shows a 3G signal and good signal strength but when I turn off wifi I get no data. I don't think its the ROM cause I've flashed 3 different ROM and I have the same problem with each. I updated my profile and PRL but it didn't change anything. I got this phone(EVO LTE) on day one and data has always working fine but his just started yesterday.
Any advice is greatly appreciated.
mine just started this today around 2pm. getting ready to call sprint now that im home.

I'm located in Dallas. So I just got off the phone with sprint tech support and they had me dial some code on my phone to bring up a menu I never seen before to reset some setting and my data and gps is now working. They only bad part is that my mobile data only works now when my phone is set go CDMA only and not LTE/CDMA. That sucks cause they do have LTE in my area.

I am having the same problem in Ft Worth. Started this afternoon. I can get 3g data if I set the data to eVdo only. If I set it to cdma I can only get 1x. If I set it to cdma/evdo/lte auto I get no data. I am hoping this means Sprint is working on the towers.

My data started working again this morning. Still the same crappy 3g. It is funny, if I select evdo only my speeds double. On auto mode is get between 50 & 100 kbps, if I select evdo I get between 200 & 300 kbps. I still don't have lte at home, Haltom City. I have seen lte for a few minutes at a time at work, Meacham & Blue Mound Rd.

The sprint tech has to dial: ##3282# and select Edit mode(i can't remember the password he gave me) From there we went to advanced to verifty my MSID. That was corect so we didn't change anything. He said he reset the data on my phone and asked me restart it. After that he had me go into my mobile network settings and disable domestic data and select CDMA mode only and restart again. It's worked fine ever since.
