I had the same issue and I fixed it by dialing *#*#4636#*#* and going to phone info then hit menu, select radio band, then sect the pcs. As soon as it says it switched power your phone down!!!!!!

Just to be perfectly clear, CDMA PRL Auto is the proper mode to switch to.

I get no internet on cdma auto either. Even after a reboot. Ping says network unreachable.
Sadface.
Dallas/Richardson area here, having the same problem. Data only working on 4G, nothing on evdo/1x.
Same here on two Thunderbolts in Los Angeles. I actually haven't seen 3G at all since Friday night. Called Verizon and apparently there is an issue with 3G provisioning. They claim they are working on it and that there will be a fix in the next day. I know others say they fixed it with a hard reset but I don't want to do that if I don't have to, especially if its just going to break again later...

Hey guys I had the same issue in Baltimore, MD area and for me I had to factory reset and the 3g is now working when using cdma auto and its been running for about an hour now

Weird. Mine never had that problem.
Did a factory reset now (since I hardly customized my phone yet), and it seems to have fixed the 3G problem. Not only that, but now I have the updated market! (Before the reset, I had the old market)
Go to the market and download Restart Connections. If you lose mobile network after switching to the proper setting, run that app.
Edit: This will also get rid of the need to do a factory reset to regain data connection

it worked for me after a while. i turned it on outside my house and it worked, but for some reason my home wouldnt let me switch
Had a similar issue. Figured out that when I switch from LTE to CDMA (PRL) it will switch to 3g, it can take a while, however if I power off the phone it will not connect on reboot to 3g again have to switch back to LTE and go to 4g and then switch back again. Hope this helps
3g just started working and i did nothing (other than going without internet for hours until it started working).
im blaming Verizon and my local network.

1x woes

Hey guys. I've had my EVO for a while and I've been flashing roms like a fiend, recently I've been stuck on 1x for a few days now. I switched to a stock based ROM and updated all my stuff. Called sprint and they reset my connection and its still on 1x. They want me to go into a store because they think its the phone. Any last minute ideas? Should I s-on or anything. Im also worried about them switching out the phones and me being able to root the new one.

in dialer dial ##DATA# click edit mode enter you msl click data profile then hit the settings(?) button on the bottom of phone click restore reboot phone let it do its thing see if that helps
And if you do end up bringing it in, normally a fresh flash of a completly stock ROM will work, as long as you don't have a custom splash screen they shouldn't notice s-off.
They would try to do an update which will include 1.5 bootloader.( I've seen someone who did this and ended up with 1.5 boot, with s-off as a result, but who knows what was done to it in the store)
Go with the instructions above my post, worth a shot..

Tried restoring, no luck still on 1x. I don't want to be stuck on hboot 1.5 don't they not have s off yet?

No network connection

I apologize as I'm certain this has been asked already. I just got my EVO LTE today. I'm using the Android xda app and I can't find any way to confine a search to a specific forum. When I type in my search, the app searches all forums at CDs!
When I'm away from a wifi signal, and I try to use any app that requires a data connection, I get a no data signal error.
I have tried switching to cdma only, but that does not work. When I check in settings, it also says, "no data connection".
So 1. What's up with that?
Bonus 2. Is there a way to search in the Android xda app and limit it to one forum?
Thanks.

The answer to 2. Is no theres not. Would be nice though not sure about 1 though, have you tried updating your profile?

I have a co-worker who just got this phone 2 days ago with the same problem. He called the store, told him what was going on and they said bring it back and they gave him a new one. Well it didn't fix the problem. Now they are saying its cuz Sprint is still working on making things work on ICS.. they have also said its because the update hasn't come to make it a working 4G LTE phone yet.. my friend is a EVO fan and is trying to stick it out, he has a 14 day buyers remorse period which he can exchange it for a different phone which he might go to the SGS2 .. any info would be great. Thanks on advance

Yes, mobile data is on. That's where it says, "no data connection". If you long press, you have the option for cdma only.
I haven't yet called Sprint because I figured this issue must have been posted here and someone had a fix. Also had fear Sprint would not know what the problem was. After the above post, I guess I have a good reason!

In the "mobile networks" settings try checking the "domestic data" option
Yep, domestic data is also on.

I had the same problem and used ##3282# to delete profile and couldn't get it to reconnect. Come to find it is was because i was connected to an airave. I went up the street and updated the profile again and it started working instantly. Haven't had any more problems since.
Same problems here - I kept going into roaming mode with full bars, then out of roaming and zero bars. Couldn't use any mobile data or make calls.
Kept having to update the PRL - like every hour or so. Eventually, updating the PRL stopped fixing the problem. Resetting the phone got the mobile connection working again but it still wigs out after awhile and updating the PRL isn't helping. Only resetting makes it work. Ugh.
I'm on wifi a lot and the wifi radio seems to work like a champ.
Updating the PRL and Profile and then rebooting the phone solved the problem for me.
i am headed to the sprint repair center at lunch for this issue. It will work great as long as I do not turn on the wifi..as soon as it connects to a wifi source it drop the mobile network like it should..but when the wifi goes away it will not reconnect to mobile network..it will say "turning on" then just go to disconnected...sucks. Hope they can either fix it or provide a new one.

So you're saying you flashed the latest RUU and you still have an issue? If so, the problem must be hardware, not software. If you haven't done that, I would try that next, and then call Sprint and have them refresh your device. Or you can try to activate through Settings first.

[Q] Weird problem

Okay guys I have this problem with my Atrix 4G. It's usually on NottachTrix 2.0.0 or 1.9.0 since 2.3.0 was giving me weird errors. The problems I am having are that I have a strong signal of 4-5 bars and then either after an idle or just by watching it sometimes the signal degrades and eventually it's greyed out with a little x over it and it stays like that indefinitely. I've tried turning the wifi on and off, the GPS on and off, I've done a factory reset. I've repeatedly flashed the radios. 30, 36, 37, and the sbf of OLY_ATT_01.97.00R. I've done it with the sim in and out, with the sd in and out fixed permissions. " And I still have the issue of the signal either being completely off, or just degrading. I'm using this on T-Mobile but when I search for providers all it shows is AT&T and when I go to About Phone -> Status I consistently have between 90-120dBm under signal. What am I doing/not doing right?

i'm not knowledgeable about this issue, but based off of what you said, you're using ATT radios on a T Mobile network. perhaps a T Mobile radio would work? if i'm wrong with this statement, then i am and i'll admit it, but thats what i would try.

Im not sure that's how it works since the radio wasn't designed for this phone. Oh and it was working before and kinda worms if I reboot the phone but it still degrades

I always flash through CWM except for the 00R radio. And I just tried the other radios on the internet from the internationals to the UK to all US radios, still no luck at all. Is this a SIM issue or is my phone SOL?

i think i need to back track here and ask if you unlocked it so it is capable of running on different carriers. next would be did you set up the correct service settings like the vpn and stuff. and have you tried flashing, via fastboot or cwm, any t mobile radios?

Does this phone even have T-Mobile radios? I've flashed Via CWM, I am bootloader unlocked and SIM unlocked I have no clue what a VPN is but the APN comes with the phone I think.

lol apn is what i meant, not vpn, my bad. but yes, do you have the T Mobile apn info set up so it should work? and this phone was never made available for T Mobile, so it doesn't have any T Mobile radios. you would have to look for T Mobile radios to do what i was talking about trying out

What T-Mobile radios do I look for? Isn't each radio made specifically for each phone? And When I catch signal it does work.

ok its hardware issue. below is a paragraph about a different device that might point you in the right direction
"Did u follow the guide on XDA forums? They have the original guide for unlocking AWS bandwidth for ATT note 2 so that it could work on T-Mobile 4G.
If you flashed it correctly your phone should virtually pick up tmobile 4g any where you go.
Unless you live in a rural area that is."
it would be a hardware issue that should be able to be fixed using whatever was used in the case above. it may be about the note 2, but they did ask about other devices, so i would think it might work

From What I was reading, that method was for phones that have T-Mobile Variants that just have the 1700 Band blocked. Tmobile reps say it's probably a SIM issue which I'm hoping it is so I don't find out I have to buy a new atrix. But if its Software I'd love to be able to fix it now and get it over with.
