So , my problem started yesterday and whenever I connect to 4g I'm not actually able to connect to anything online. Everything works fine over 3g and WiFi but everytime I'm ok 4g , I get nothing . I live in Philadelphia , and in a 4g service area. I've tried a master reset and still nothing. Does anyone have a way to fix it . I tried a search but wasn't able to fond any info for my problem . Thanks in advance for all your help.

Having the same problem in the same area. I called Sprint just now, the rep said it wasn't the towers. I have a OG EVO, I'm about to power up and test out. If it works fine, I'm returning the 3D until they issue a fix. This one was a replacement for one that was running hot, but I noticed weak 4G speeds on that one also.
I actually went through your same ordeal on TWO 3vo's.....third one was a charm.. nothing will fix it, so you'll have to take it back to Sprint for a new one.

Thanks I'll stop in a store tomorrow. Hope 3 is the charm for me too, or I will go back to my OG for awhile. I need my 4G hotspot.
The rep mentioned there was a (bad batch) that was having problems. I was honestly almost going to cancel service and go back to sprint. Once you get a 3vo with no issues you're going to LOVE the phone. And just wait ti'll we have an unlocked bootloader....lol

i just wanted to give everyone an update. 24 hrs later and my 4g is fine again. Any one think it was just the area yesterday ? If not i would like to swap mine out while i am still in my thirty day window.

Thanks for the update. I'm from the philly area as well. I'm going to keep mine on 4g all day to see if i also get the intermittent connection. Sometimes it will work then sometimes it won't
I was having the same issues yesterday. I spent like 2 hours talking with Sprint doing ##3282# data profile restores until the 5th rep says it’s a nationwide issue. The connection showed full reception on my 3D and my wife's OG EVO, but the connection to the internet or any other data services was intermittent. Seems to be fine today.
this was working fine today but stopped working about an hour ago. anyone else have this issue???
you guys are not alone
sadly this is not only a evo 3d problem...i have an epic 4g and have been experiencing the same problems, the 4g connects yet no webpages will load and apps wont connect to the internet. 4g sometimes starts working again but then it stops again. If anyone can find out what the hell is going on it'll be a great help.
I've had issues where certain apps don't get internet access while on 4G but the web browser always seems to work. I know Scrabble from EA didn't like the 4G, and Google Music didn't either.
Johnbis. The same thing happened to me as well. During the same time frame. I'm still not able to get 4g as well.

everyone is honestly too quick to jump the gun and return their phones. It's quite silly and alarmist.
Just reset it or wait it out; that usually solves most problems.
This is my second evo 3d, this one works fine till today, i work at Bethesda ,MD, the 3g works fine, my 4g no way this evening, they need to solve this problem asap, or else they are going to loose customer, evo 4g has good reputation, E3D please don't destroy that reputation.
They responded to me on their Facebook wall, Wimax cell sites are down (intermittent data issue on 4G). They're working to bring them up.

Thanks for the update. I will update this thread as well if it go's back down. As of right now its up for me.
and its back down.....
I'm in Philly and I'm having the same issue (for the past two days now, actually). As of 9:53 EST in Center City Wimax is down, and it was down around 7:50 am today. Yesterday (Monday), I had connection problems from Noon to 4 (in Center City), but could connect to SpeedTest around 5:50 pm in Mt Airy.
If it is just the wimax cell sites being down, as opposed to a bad 4G attenca in my phone, does anyone know of a way to check besides calling Sprint? Their reps vary wildly in competence (or at the least, some suck at reading their memos/emails), and I don't want to have to call 80 of them to get a straight answer :/

LOL if you noticed, I'm in your area, its not the phone.
Yeah, I noticed Someone had mentioned in this thread that he'd had two 3vos with busted antennas, so I'm a little worried (I've had an amazing streak of non-defective electronics purchases, and I'd hate for this phone to end my streak LOL).
As of 10:40 Am EST in downtown Philly, with 1 bar of 4G and 4 bars of signal strength, I have Wimax data transfer (3.20 Down and 0.07 up, 115ms ping). That's after updating my PRL then my profile while 4G was on. I'm guess they're currently working on getting the WImax cells up.
Okay, starting this morning my 4g will connect (says ip address and connected to sprint) yet will not pull down any data. That includes no webpages or if I try speedtest it hangs at testing ping. Zero data. I'm currently using warm rom with stock kernel for the past few weeks. Definitely not a 4g service issue as someone with an Evo 4g was able to pull data with no problem standing next to me today. Tried wiping all and flashing the latest warm rom to no avail. Any ideas? Anything else I should try?
Thank you for any help you can offer!
I have no data also. Never rooted and with the original stock firmware (so if I want to root) and the most recent PRL. I am in Boston if that matters. 3g works just fine.

Thank you that makes me feel a little better as I am in the Boston area as well. Really strange though that someone with an original evo was able to down 4g data today. I might give sprint a call to check on any outages.
Talking to sprint now and they say NO network outages in Boston area. Strange.
I had this issue in the morning a day or two ago but it went away after an hour or so. Problem returned this morning and have had to use 3G since then because Wimax isn't working.
I'm on the latest Warm nightly and too am in Boston. Sounds like it's specific to Boston.

Let us know what they tell you at the store. Hard to believe that this many of us are experiencing the exact same issue and its not on sprints end. Lol I forget how slow 3g can be as most of my travels are normally covered with 4g. Hope its back online soon. Anyone else in the Boston area that wants to chime in?

Just got back and what they told me is they disconnected wimax and it could be this way for a few weeks! They are gonna be testing LTE and just keep it on 3G. Thanks for the heads up sprint!
WTF?! That's BS.
If it's not back by the end of the weekend, I'm writing a letter.
4g Still broken in Boston area. Many reports....when a phone is mentioned it is the Evo 3d. Was there an over the air update yesterday?
An OTA should not affect it since I haven't upgraded since the first one. Also, people that I know who have the Evo 4G can use data just fine.
Dose everyone with the issue have the evo 3d or is it whit all phone, because sure seems like the ones with the issue are evo 3d users
as well as everyone should! this is BS!! i am more mad that i called CS 3x and they kept telling me there's no outtages in my area! how could they not know about something as major as this????? I had to go outta my way to a local store for them to tell me this crap??? my cousin called to complain and they hung up on him! called back to speak to a manager and they just kept him on hold! kinda missing T-Mo right now!!!!

Wow, glad I found this thread! I got the same problem on Nexus S 4G located near Norwood. In my case, I just got a replacement phone yesterday. 4G was fine yesterday but today, nothing. I was starting to think I got a defective phone. The worst part is that with 4G enabled, I got a signal so it doesn't even try to fall back to 3G. I just checked Settings > About phone > Status > Mobile network state says Disconnected when 4G is turned on.
I can only get 4G service while at work so if they've disabled it, I'm gonna be mad!

can't speak for everyone else but i don't mind at all. Just don't like the fact that Sprint has no idea whats going on and sending people to local stores to me is BS! they should be more informed of something this major going on and not making everyone think there phones are junk! all they have to do is inform their customers of the testing and to put their phone on 3G! i had no idea of that and had no data till i went to the local store today and they told me to put it on 3G.
I've made references to this in Q&A, so apologies if you've read this already.
Simply put, my mobile data does not work on this phone. What I'm finding is if I leave a WiFi network or go to/from Sprint to roaming data, the hand-off to cellular data never happens as one of three things invariably occurs:
a) Mobile Data is stuck in 'turning on...' and thus I have no signal at all;
b) I have signal but no throughput (the up/down arrows never light up and I get no data connection);
c) the phone just reboots.
So basically if I change my network state, I can't go back until I reboot. Toggling Mobile Data does nothing in any of these instances. Now I expect holes in the software during a device release, but not holes you can drive a truck through. If anyone is experiencing the same issue or has any ideas, I'd love to hear them. If it's not solved by the end of my 14-day rescission period, this thing is done for.
I had this same exact problem. Update your profile and PRL. That fixed it for me but I dunno if that will fix the problem permanently. Might be a hardware defect but I hope it was just a prl/profile issue.

I've tried updating my profile and PRL and unfortunately that did nothing, and moments ago I gave up and called Customer Care to reactivate my OG EVO.
Of course, 30 seconds after that was all done the representative told me there's an EVDO data issue/outage that has been persistent in Philadelphia since the 22nd. You'd think they'd tell their store reps this valuable information, but such is not the case. I'm going to try running some tests on my OG EVO for comparison's sake and see how much truth they're telling me before I put the LTE back in the box and tell Sprint where they can shove it.
I have noticed some quirkyness with the WiFi/3g handoff on the phone on stock and viperROM. I am in the Philly market too, possibly the issue.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
It's becoming unbearable. I lose my 3g connection about 3 times a day. But today, it's lost it about 20 times and that's no exaggeration. It's lost mobile data at least 5 times in the last hour. HTC has got to do something about this.
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
So I reactivated my OG EVO and sure enough, 3G data speeds are nothing short of awful in the 19103 area (~6KB/sec on average), compared to the 19106 area a mile or so away -- there's definitely an EVDO issue in the area. However, the OG EVO is not exhibiting the same WiFi/roaming hand-off issues that the EVO LTE is; that has to be a software issue specific to the phone. Seeing as I frequently walk in and out of various WiFi blankets throughout the city several times every day, this bug is a deal-breaker for me.
When I leave a wifi area I've noticed it takes a very long time to pick up 3G. It was nearly instant on my E4GT.
I just had the same issue with my mobile connection. Updating my profile and PRL seemed to do the trick. Changing from wi-fi to mobile also takes over a minute...
change your phone from cdma/lte mode to cdma mode, did the trick for a few friends of mine.
I've also been having the same issues. My phone will just drop 3G and go to roaming or no signal at all constantly. I also live in the Philly area so I'm hoping since we're in the second wave to get LTE that its just Sprint working on the network but I'm starting to suspect that we have a serious problem with our phones. Im on my second phone & a few different ROMS including stock & I've been having the problem since pre relase while my wife's Samsung E4GT has had no issues.
Edit
Well I took the advice from another thread and switched from CDMA/LTE to CDMA only & I haven't had any issues with my 3G dropping or with the WiFi to 3G handoff. Don't know if that fixed the problem or if Sprint just isn't working on the towers today.

Okay this is starting to piss me off. I loose 3G service anytime I unlock the phone. In my house I can not keep a call connected to save my life, even though I have 4 bars. My 3G just looses signal. Its not when I switch from WiFi. It just does it on its own.
The first thing I tried was to turn the CDMA/LTE to just CDMA, tested this for 2 days nothing. I updated both Profile and PRL.... nothing.
I am really tempted to walk into a Sprint store and through down because this is unacceptable. And this happened to my first EVO LTE, so I returned it within my 14 days, got a second one and its doing the same thing. I thought well maybe its because I am in the Chicago Subbards but I have been in 2 other states and I have the same issue.
Anyone know of a fix or when HTC will actually fix their newest phone? I mean come on really guys, how is this okay?
EDIT:
Also, I tried turning off NFC and that doesn't help either.
And is anyone else's EVO get REALLY hot?

As of today, dead. Voice is ok. 3G is gone. (Philly)
Im in lexington sc and for about a week now my data (which i had inside my house just fine) has been out almost completely and i have called 3 times and got 3 different reasons on why this is. Now last night they tell me that there is NO eta on when it will return????? WTF! This better be a LTE thing. If not this is getting out of control fast... They said id be credited for the outage, well data is 50% of what we pay for. This is unacceptable sprint...
Say if it is a software issue shouldn't most people have this issue ?
Sent from my EVO using xda premium
probably, depending on which software/firmware version you're running. I think it's more specifically related to the radio version/fw vs the towers causing it. it seems more and more like i get varied results depending on where i'm at. always the same end result, just the behavior in how long 3g stays connected varies.
I have been dealling with the same issues. I was driving and my data went out. Can't get data only if I connect to a WiFi, I tried everything. I am on the latest firmware, prl, ect. I got it back yesterday about 5 hours later but as soon as I go to an area with no service it will not come back. (Voice and text work fine) I am still without data since Noon today. I know I have 3G because my old Epic 4G is working fine. I even flashed the radio again and flashed the whole firmware again. Still doesn't work. I am about to take it back and get the Samsung....
Today I lost all data. Sprint says it is because they are updating their towers. Should I have this problem all over Dallas? My wifes phone works fine. Spent an hour with tech no luck. I went to the Sprint store and they just said people have been coming in all day.
My two friends with the same phone have no issues and one other with a rooted phone has issues. I hope I didn't lose data because I rooted my phone.
Any one else having these issues?
You can be certain that it isn't the rooting itself that would cause your data issue. Try going into your settings>Mobile Network: and where it says "Network Mode" select it and choose "CDMA Only" and see if you can connect then. With network vision being so close I would image alot of strange things are going on in those areas (im in the atlanta market but havent experience and problems). And one guess I have is since data is fine on a non LTE-device, it's almost CERTAINLY a tower work kind of error. Our phones (lte phones) have different PRL's than non LTE phones so our phones choose what towers to connect to , and how to connect to them, differently. I'm sure this will be remedied extremely soon. probably fine by the time you wake up in the morning.
Im in Grapevine/colleyville and I frequently loose data for a sec, but not long periods of time. It's cause of the lte roll out. Should be all good on july 15th
Thanks guys, puts my mind at ease. Can't wait til it's here.
Live in Dallas work in grapevine, same issues. Hoping 15th roll out solves everything, luckily I'm on WiFi at home and work so its not overly unbearable. Grapevine however I have trouble with text sometimes.

Im actually having the same issue here in Houston. If network mode is set to LTE/CDMA, i get no data. Still shows 3G, but the arrows that show receive/transmit show the transmit arrow solid. Where if I change my network mode to CDMA only, data works fine.
So HOPEFULLY it is as suggested, tower work due to Network Vision. Fingers crossed!
Yeah I have the same problem . I loose data complety . Sprint said it should work. I don't know if its the phone prl or the towers . I also heard a few people say it was happening to people with rooted phones but I really don't know . I live in fort worth and loose data 20 plus times a day .

Same issue in Austin. The CS rep I'm talking to speculates it might be tied to the storms in the NE/midwest.
I'm also getting errors updating my PRL and profile.
On hold with tech support right now. Once I'm done, I'll try setting my network mode to CDMA only and see if that helps.
Well today i had no signal and everyone i know had no signal we all have sprint. Sprint said as we speak they were working on the vision project for the towers for lte and from what i read online today was they day they were working in my area. The plan for lte was to start with the small towns around Chicago and then chicago last so people in Chicago could pick up signals from near by areas until the towers in Chicago get updated. Theres more cell towers in chicago alone then the rest of illinois combined so this make perfect since. I'm from Rockford Illinois and i have horrible 3g speeds. Hoping they flip this lte switch soon.

Things are working for me again. Sprint tech guy had me dial ##72786# and input the password 033322. From their, he had me hit menu and reset.
The phone rebooted and reactivated. Then I updated my profile and prl. Those failed the first few times, but they worked when I set the network mode to cdma only. Switched back to cdma/lte and everything's back to normal.
The tech did confirm that we were feeling echoes of the network disruption (due to a storm) in the northeast.
I live in Richardson and work in Plano. No 3G issues anywhere for me. Including going into downtown Dallas yesterday and today.

I have a sprint HTC - One Max with current OTA - rooted of course - Kit Kat.
When I'm on calls it does not allow me to use my data on my wifi at all. I have always been able to
on my Galaxy 2 phone but not with this new HTC One Max.
I've tried using it with the mobile data turned off or on in settings.
Even though it shows wifi connectivity on status bar it still doesn't allow
for a page to load, speedtest to be done, zello to stay logged in, etc.
no one experiencing my duplex wifi while in call not working issue?
Is no one else having this problem ? I'm about to do a flash back to the stock ROM to see if wifi works simultaneously while in a call but if it's a fault in the programming / chipset then there's no point in me trying. Someone please reply so I don't waste my time doing something that someone else has tried.
Well I am on Verizon but sometimes my data works and sometimes it doesn't during a call. WiFi will stay connected and work fine.

Mine isn't working at all when I'm on the call, even when the wifi connectivity is on the status bar.. as soon as I disconnect calls my push to talk app/browser/etc start back working... Sometimes the wifi doesn't work at all on the phone even if I'm not on a call, but the S2 I have works like a charm with the same cradle point mbr1200/verizon data card that I've had for years. within 5 feet from the router too...

i was on the phone with my mom on moms day and was on wifi here at the house.

I'm having issues with data also. I have the Verizon onemax. I started having this problem about 3 days ago. I have issues staying connected to 4g never used to have this problem. I live in a 4g area, when I turn off my device and wait about 10 secs then turn it back on then I get 4g for a brief period then it goes right back to 3g. Also I can't get any data when I make a phone call, that never ever happened before, I don't know why this is happining. I called Verizon and the rep told me to turn off my device then turn it back on the rep said that resets the "PRL" I TRIED THAT like I said awhile ago it worked....but only for a brief period. The Verizon rep "tech support" told me if that diddnt work that I may need to get a new SIM "which is on the way". This problem has happened on NuSense and on ViperRom, I wiped cach/dalvik/data&system and I'm still having this issue, I'm hopping the new SIM will fix this issue. Maybe we can get some help. I'm hopping because this is very annoying!

Problem diagnosed but not fixed
I have diagnosed my problem on simultaneous calling with data connection non existence even with wifi symbol on status bar...
The data on wifi works on calls if I'm not using a bluetooth device, meaning if I'm using the handset or the speaker phone it works fine, even if the headset stays connected to the phone, wifi still works as long as I'm not using the bluetooth for my call... kinda defeats purpose of having a smartphone if you can't use all features... backward thinking htc.

That sounds like a load of crap on the PRL note, which stands for preferred roaming list, aka while off verizon towers... network / data provisioning should fix the problem... which on sprint's is a quick ##72786# to get network provisioning to reset itself... Been doing that alot lately with the towers here getting the upgrade bugs. Had a nexus 5 phone in a power cycle loop when LTE was turned on in specific areas, had to put it in airplane mode quickly before it powered down, change settings to cdma, leaving it like that til the area was fixed. Only phone that had that problem that I know of. My HTC One Max kept losing tower connection randomly and I still have issues where certain towers won't put the call through to my phone. Which I've heard is an "on going" issue from sprint in certain "markets" LoL... (My guess is any of the newly upgraded towers with spark)

All I know is that when I put in my new SIM it seemed to fix my issue iv not had any problems staying connected to 4g. I figured the Verizon REP was full of B.S.

I created a new thread for this issue with a poll to help htc see if it's a wide spread issue. Will let them know the link tomorrow when I talk to their higher tier techs.
