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.

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.

Were you by chance also having issues with MMS downloading? I really like the phone but some of these little quirks are starting to annoy me.
Anyone else having this problem? I haven't seen a fix or any other posts which makes Mr think this may be a device issue. Thanks for any help.

Anyone else with this?
I flashed the OTA today hoping it would rectify and it has not. I am rooted, s-off, TWRP so my options are open for mods but don't know what to look for here. Anyone, anyone? :fingers-crossed:

I'm having the same issue, but with an international One X. It didn't happen initially, but after flashing various ROMs it seems to have started happening.

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?

It happens on every wifi network I've been on - private home networks, work networks, and open networks. It doesn't always fail to switch but 90% is too high for me.

Simple question. Probably getting the EVO LTE , but I've heard there are some problems with WiFi or connectivity . I've found some threads confirming that the problems exist.
What are the odds Ill be getting a bad phone? Are these problems just on a few phones or all?
Are those problems something a custom ROM will fix?
Obviously I don't want to get a bad phone. I prefer to wait 1 or 2 months , for a new batch of problem free phones. Then Ill get one, or try my luck.
Thnks everybody everything helps.
I had issues with wifi like a few others when I was unrooted but it was easy to fix and I haven't been having the problem in a while. Aside from that I'm very happy with the phone

rooting just fix the problem or did you install a new rom
??
I've had zero problems with wifi or data on stock or rooted
Roms,running mostly rejuvenated which is on v1.5 right now.
Others are reporting many issues I haven't had so maybe I am just lucky. Just adding my experience for you, its an awesome device in my opinion...
Ohhh and I've had mine since the pre orders were released from itc jail

I have a fully rooted with custom roms and my mom has totally stock and we both love them. Neither of us have any problems at all.

Good to hear that
also Ive been reading the stock is pretty good, Ive always ran viper on my pasts evo 4g and evo 3d.
I've had no wifi or data issues at all. My camera app has frozen a couple of times, other than that no issues. And although I'll root eventually, I'm still completely stock and loving it.

the problem with wifi connectivity is compatibility with 4 different specific modems, couple of linksys and others, not that the phone is "bad" but sprint knows about it I talk to the tech at sprint store they told me they should have a fix soon..:good: running liquid smooth rom and life is great...
Not one problem so far. Rooted or not, I only rooted it, didn't unlock the bootloader or flashed anything.

I've definitely had problems with WiFi dropping out for no reason. I've had them both before root and after. The device will simply just drop the connection for no good reason.
The only reason I haven't returned the phone is I'm stubborn. I am going to do a nandroid back-up (already used TiBU) and return this device for a different one.
Because I have Best Buy protection, they should just swap it out for a different device. I've had mine since May 25th, the 2nd day of release.
I hope that helps--the rumor is there was a bad batch of EVO's and Sprint/HTC knows it. Fortunately we are not like the poor HOX (HTC One X) users where the only fix for their issue is a soldering iron...

I had problems initially with wifi dropping, changed the setting to 2.4Ghz only, turned off best performance and downloaded wifi manager. Haven't had a problem since.

All phones have problems, i wouldn't listen to any one person. Review opinions in this forum and see if the amount of problems are more or less than the competitors. There are a lot of good phones out there right now and not a one of them is a dog, contrary to what fanboys like to say. It also depends what you are coming from. If your current phone is less than a year old you may want to wait it out for a while. I'm not sure any of the choices now are light years ahead of last years group.
I haven't had any issues at all with the phone, except the crappy multitasking.
Oh and don't use the "best WiFi performance" option, it will drain your a lot (35% over 6 hours vs. 3%)
All new phones have bad eggs in a batch. It's the nature of the beast. I personally went through 3 Evo Lte's until I got a good one because of dead pixels. When I got my Evo 3D I got a good one right off the bat, while many others had problems. It doesn't matter what brand it is wether its HTC, Samsung, or even Apple they all have bad eggs.

It is true to a point, I but don't blame HTC I believe a lot of poor signal just simply has to do with sprints known ways of claiming they are top of notch, but truly they are behind in the game ITS THEY'RE SIGNAL THEY'RE TOWERS, there possible merge to lte may be why we see slow data poor signal
When lte goes full blown we who stuck with sprint will have unlimited 4G and those one atat and vzw will have the same 4G but data capped.
That's why it's been slow for years its a waiting game
So I'd start thinking along the lines it's not all HTC it's the networks signal

No problems here, only issues ive heard about are from dipshits that dont know how to use it. HTCs best EVO yet. Wait till development really starts up, this device will be straight off the chain.

Hi.
My data and Wi-Fi keeps turning itself on. I googled around and found that this problem has been around for a while and a lot of people are complaining about this however there still isn't any solution. Some suggested that ShopSavy was doing this, but I uninstalled it and still got the problem, and I even re-installed the ROM. Looks like this is happening to ICS users only.
Really need some solution to this...
HTC Incredible S
Android version 4.0.4
IceColdSandwich vivo-8.3.AOKP-ROSSI
This bug is really annoying, need help.

Hey guys-
I have searched the forum with no success. I am having problems with the volume control on my EVO LTE after installing CM10. I am currently running nightly 2012.01.07....I have searched out and found a zip file that can be flashed that is suppose to fix the problem, however it didn't work. Not 100% sure if it supports the EVO LTE or not. I was wondering if anyone else out there has a fix for this and if they can share please. It is so difficult to make phones calls unless I am in a completely silent room.
Thank you Thank you.
It would be helpful if you explained what sort of volume control issues you are experiencing so someone can help you. You didn't specify if you're having problems someone hearing you, or you hearing them.

I'd say it was the Nightly version of CM10 your running. I would flash the new 1/14 release of CM10. I had this problem of other person hearing me. flashed to 1/14 and it was all good. that may resolve your problem.
I have been exploring new roms for my Verizon G3 recently (Have been on CM12.1 for months, and was curious about others roms). When I tried to flash, everything went fine. I ended up really enjoying the rom. Howvwer, after a while, con.android.process has stopped working shows up, and keeps popping up, rendering my phone useless. I tried reflashing it multiple times, with no luck. Same issue. I looked on Cloudy G3's forums and have not found anything (I am also not fond of looking through 101 pages). Has anyone fixed this? I am going to post this on the rom's thread too, but I at least wanted to start here.

The whole rom is built on an international base - stay away from it as you'll constantly have those kinds of oddities and even rom breaking issues. It's a well known issue and there is no fix - it's not designed to run on a US CDMA phone.

Thanks you so much. I knew he made it more for CDMA, but he has a vs985 option. Wierd why he would do that if it does not work. Thanks though. Maybe he'll fix it.

My response was not wrong - it is a known issue. If you would have actually read the full OP and read between the lines, you'd know that the OP asked about a fix for the issue he's currently seeing on CloudyROM for the VS985, which there is not a fix for - believe me I've spent hours researching it.
@8pscott - Yes, there is a VS985 version - Cloudy made it because of "popular request". However, he doesn't live in the US nor own a VS985 device and therefore can't test it and fix any potential bugs. Bottom line is you can definitely use it, but any bugs are fully to be expected and unfortunately they won't be fixed by the dev. The biggest problem is that you're trying to take a GSM base of a rom, and port it over to work on a CDMA device such as our VS985. Sorry, wish there was better news here!
it runs spectacularly on my vs985 after applying the build.prop changes in that thread that i did indeed read. unfortunately the link was just to the page, and not the post.

Out of curiosity, how long have you been running it? I know it runs well while it does....but I know I personally got the same com.android unfixable crashing error that the OP got, too after aa couple weeks of running the thing.
That cleared up after a reflash. I flashed within a few days of the 2.5 release.
hola
I also run cloudy g3 on my vs985 runs great. Best Bluetooth reception on any rom I have ran. I can walk a good 30 ft form my phone and music never breaks up.
