[HTC EVO 3D] gk1984:
Hey, I'm in the Chicago area too and I know there can be dead spots and sprint is the slowest of the carriers it seems. Where I'm at though, service is incredible. The Crestwood area. But I can't venture out too far before I see speeds drop. Signal strength seems to stay strong everywhere I go though. And I don't even bother using 4G. I can get it at home but not much anywhere else. And with wifi at home, what's the point? But I'm still happy with the service.

The phone I love too. I dropped it a couple times while in a case, no damage. Phone doesn't reboot, everything is responsive, etc. Maybe your replacement has something wrong with it.

Now, I did see lots of problems on custom roms or kernels or both for some reason. I trust the developers know what they're doing and I'm not a developer so I don't know why there were so many issues then. I didn't try every rom or kernel, but the popular ones I did always restarted and froze on my phone. It was like clock work. So I've stuck to the stock setup with some mods on top of it and have 0 problems.

As for CIQ goes, sprint removed it in the latest update I believe. But I wouldn't put it past then if there's some other way they're tracking us. Since the removal of ciq, things perform world's better too.

I won't get too into their customer service but I have had some really friendly support and I've had some that clearly don't enjoy their job but weren't rude to me. It happens everywhere.
[HTC EVO 3D] chROMed:
Sucks that you are having so many issues, my 3d has been rock solid but sprints data in my home town is horrible. Stuck in a contract til mid 2013. Hoping to see some improvement by then with the upcoming lte. Although i dont see much about florida in their upcoming deployments. Think i read awhile back about Miami, but that was it. Best wishes to you and hope things improve for all of us with sprint issues.

[HTC EVO 3D] GuestK00222:
CIQ is indeed removed, since the January 13th update. Most phone manufacturers and Sprint are working with eachother to remove CIQ if it hasn't been already. Be glad you didn't go with Samsung, I've had so many with issues it's not funny. If you are mad about a camera issue on HTC, wait till you see what Samsung can give you. Late (if ever updates), radio issues, physical KB keypress skips, crashing camera, you name it (depending on the model). The SII is lambasted with problems galore, google it. It sucks that the HTC is locked down more, but IMO, it's not like a Samsung so it's not entirely necessary to root because the phone itself doesn't have major experience killing issues.

FREEDOM OF SPEECH . I demand a reason of the removal of my posts .
[HTC EVO 3D] dylan6879:
i second this what the hell is going on nothing that was said was terrible.. explain ur reasoning >:O
[HTC EVO 3D] respectagain:
Freedom of speech does not apply on a forum.
[HTC EVO 3D] oohaylima:
"Freedom of Speech" doesn't always comply with XDA forum policies.
[HTC EVO 3D] dylan6879:
You mind showing us the policy and how what was said went against the policy?
[HTC EVO 3D] chlehqls:
PM a mod if you have any gripes.
[HTC EVO 3D] sgt. slaughter:
I don't know what was said here but many of the rules here could be used to limit your speech and rightfully so. For example the rule 2.4...

Regardless PM the mod or a mod and ask, and you'll likely get an answer.
[HTC EVO 3D] ricsim78:
I don't care about customer service, I have dealt with good and bad reps of ANY company I have ever dealt with.

Sprint has unlimited plans but their network is mark-ably worse then when I first started using it.

Verizon has much better signal everywhere. I have a Verizon Mifi device and when my Evo 3D or Sprint Wifi device (which I returned) could not connect at work at all I was getting decent 4G with Verizon! No connection vs connection with 4G. And we all know Verizon has a much faster 4G data rate.

There are pros and cons to every carrier. I have friends who have all carriers, I have tried all of them almost (AT&T, US Cellular, T-Mobile, Sprint, Cingular) and there is plus and minus to all of them. But your post has some good points as well. Thank you for your reply and I agree with a LOT of what you said.
[HTC EVO 3D] ricsim78:
I have no idea what you said but I am guessing your post was a typical "retaliation" thread against mine and maybe the mods removed it so this post does not become a back and forth. But 30 posts about how they removed your threads are taking THIS thread off subject, so please stick to the subject matter.

A lot of people reply to posts with counter arguments but many go overboard. Maybe you did and they removed it? I can only speculate....

Anyhow, you can disagree with me of course but keep it clean. I opened this post with MY feelings, if yours differ offer counter arguments but no need to be rude (not saying your reply was rude, but seems there was something up with it).

[HTC EVO 3D] DoctorComrade:
Loved your roms on the 4G, basically the only reason I responded to this thread (usually stay away from xda now). Sorry about the problems you are having. :(

Hopefully you find a phone and a carrier that treats you as well as your last phone. ;)
[HTC EVO 3D] Afro Samurai:
Hi Ric, I also loved your roms on the EVO 4G too. I also made the switch to red, not because of the EVO 3D. I loved the phone and it's a solid phone but I didn't have a 1.5 hboot either. I might have felt differently if I had one. I as you did got tired of watching my coverage get worse. I'm not that far from you and I was paying for 4G coverage and hardly getting it . Some may disagree but I felt my 4G was better when I had my OG EVO. I'm no longer under "unlimited" data but is sprint truly "unlimited" when there's threads about guys getting cancelled for using too much data when it's "unlimited"..Just my .02. I'm sure in true XDA fashion someone will say "good riddance" or "cool story bro" but I'm a forum veteran and have seen it all on forums of all types. If it helps with your choice I'm loving the 4GLTE coverage Ric.

Peace
[HTC EVO 3D] igotroot:
Ricsim Whats up....I rocked your roms on my OG as well....I have a 3D now....soon to have a Galaxy S3 or Evo 4G LTE next month........Sprints 4G LTE is being installed nationwide (dont ask....i need to keep my job, :-) ) and I see it built up everyday on sites....it's quality.....you will see....patience, Verizon wont be bragging about their speed much longer.

Some guys over in the 3D section here claim to have a work around 1.5 HBoot...check the dev section on the 3D forums.

[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Misledz:
You use one at a time only? Since they transmit via the same radio channel. The same applies to laptops aswell.
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Are we headed for at least one more "final" version of Android 2.3 for our Epics officially released by Sprint or not? I know EL30 was largely motivated by the removal of CIQ, but I really can't guess what Sprint is up to with these latest leaks.

Anyway, I'm always so conservative about flashing new ROMs that I figure if we're getting yet another new one soon, I might as well wait.
[Epic 4G General] b16flybye:
considering a new leak was posted, I would say yes, another official build is coming. What it is....I'm not fully sure. Our epics went from ignored to full restored very quickly.
[Epic 4G General] DroidApprentice:
Just what I was thinking, agreed. The wait for Froyo was so agonizing that I remember pessimism we would always remain on Eclair and we'd be abandoned like Samsung's old phones. Quite a long strange trip it's been. :cool:
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
Since there is no major change in the leak maybe they are trying to sneak in some other type of monitoring software to replace CIQ. (Paranoid me)
[Epic 4G General] jdelano:
As I look at CM9 on my phone; I wonder what is this gingerbread you all are speaking about?? It seems vaguely familiar like a long distant memory ;)

:D
[Epic 4G General] labumm:
Yes it is interesting and suspicious we are getting attention.

Perhaps they are scared that their inattention has driven people away from Sprint. Contracts are the bread and butter. Not sure why they would care about CIQ, rooting, or custom ROMs. Infact if they are friendly to us wouldn't that be an attraction?

I fully understand why they cannot support software mods. But I do not see the downside for them being friendly toward it.

Hacked hot spot as well. The carrier controlles are bandwidth and data volume. End of story. Sure they loose some money from not selling that plan, but maybe they keep many more contracts, so they can still come out a head.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
We are the 1%, not the 99. They care about the blind sheep paying for every service and not putting on unauthorized software that may seem to cause hardware problems. There are a lot of people that screw up rooting their phones and run to Sprint to fix it. That costs them money as well. From a corporate, bottom-line mentality I can see it. $30 a month is a LOT of money to lose based on the $100 a month plan. I don't agree with it but I can see their point to play devil's advocate. It just takes a few bad apples to ruin the pie if you know what I mean.
[Epic 4G General] RealTic:
I wish we would get an official I.C.S. release from sprint... that would be amazing. I can only dream of all the sweet roms that would emerge with an official ICS source. However, this will never happen. They would rather we get impatient and spend 500.00+ on the new galaxy S2 or similar device. It is not sprints goal to keep us happy, it's their goal to keep us wanting more. For every early upgrade they sell, they make up for the few people that get tired of sprint and switch service. Once we upgrade our phones, it will be the same story all over again. The firmware will grow outdated, sprint will neglect, we upgrade. Most U.S. carriers require 2 year contracts for a new device for a reason... you are likely to grow tired of it before 2 years are up. They make a TON off full price phone purchases. How do i know this? Virgin mobile sells a couple phones sprint carries.....except they are about 2-300 dollars cheaper with no contract signing. It's almost sickening to think about. not really... but you know what I mean. A business has to make money, its the same with every carrier.
[Epic 4G General] poit:
I can't imagine all the development work going into these test ROMs without any plans to release a new ROM.

The FB15 leak appears to be a very minor change, with the only new feature being the Sprint Connections Optimizer, which is described as "helps manage and enhance your data experience by finding and connecting to the Sprint 4G Network and remembered wifi networks". There was no hint of an "ICS value pack" as some expected.

There may have been bug fixes in there too, but I didn't notice them.

---------- Post added at 09:50 AM ---------- Previous post was at 09:42 AM ----------

Wow, that's a jaded opinion. Keep in mind this is a mature phone that they are still selling over a year after it was introduced. I'm sure their costs on this phone are pretty low by now. I think if they could shoehorn ICS into the phone it would certainly revive sales of an old phone, I think they would do it if they could. Remember it was Sammy, not Sprint that decided there would be no ICS for the original Galaxy S series. They claimed it just didn't run will enough on the hardware and from what I hear about CM9 (a bit sluggish and a battery hog compared to GB), there may be some truth in those comments. Time will tell whether anyone will get ICS to run smoothly and efficiently on our phones.
[Epic 4G General] KennyG123:
You have to realize also that the only reason our DEVs got CM9 ICS working is through changing the partition to MTD. BML is Sammy's proprietary partitiion and it seems that to them changing the partition on the older Galaxy S series (probably any of their phones actually) is out off the question. I am sure it would be hell if it was squeezed onto the BML partition.
[Epic 4G General] poit:
Good point. Seems like doing an OTA update that repartitioned the phone would be a customer service nightmare. I'm guessing that BML could be setup with a larger system partition, but again doing that OTA could be a mess.
[Epic 4G General] tkeyes:
changing the system with an ota update, would be an mess. alot phones would be bricked and alot ppl would be calling samsprint with problems. maybe an message to go to their website to get an update like that would be easier. but ppl would still break things.

Many thanks to baby00921,we get try ICS 4.03 on LU6200,the Asia version of Nitro HD(not sure if it works on Nitro HD in USA or CANADA).

So far everything works fine except SMS receiving,it can be sent out successfully but can nerver be received,not a single one.

Many users here tried the ICS rom,but so far no one worked out the SMS ISSUE

I was wondering if someone here can help us with this ISSUE,thanks in advance.

btw,the animation in the UI,browser and others are all so smooth,you need to try it yourself.:p

[LG Nitro HD] raytraceme:
how did you get ics on the lg nitro and can I get it?
[LG Nitro HD] LiViD:
It doesn't work on the Nitro HD, so don't ask. Everyone has been filling the Nitro HD forums with this LU6200 nonsense. It's a separate device on it's own using different software, and no one in North America or Europe is going to be able to assist with it.
[LG Nitro HD] jerry12900:
Sorry,i didnt know that,i thought they were the same.Thanks for the information.

And software is never the problem,there are people customise rom into a fit version.I think we developers here will make it work in the near future(maybe in a few days more).

Once there is an ICS version for Nitro HD,i'll let you guys know.
[LG Nitro HD] sliderocket22:
Just curious, but did you check the SMS Service Center #? The issue you're having sounds like what happens when that number is removed or changed from what your carrier assigned. You can send texts, but not receive them.

[HTC Sensation] tropical cactus:
Have you updated to the latest firmware? Whenever there's a new base, I just flash the accompanying firmware before superwiping and flashing Rom. Never had a problem booting up.
[HTC Sensation] Luis214:
i dont think i did? lol what if i try to reinstall all over again you think that will help? or what do you suggest?
[HTC Sensation] tropical cactus:
Which rom did you have before? You need the 3.32 firmware from Mike's thread. Place the PG58IMG on sd card and flash from bootloader. Delete it before superwiping and flashing 6.5

So everytime I call someone or receive a call,

the 3g on the status bar disappears instantly.

right after I end the call,

I have signal again immediately.

is this suppose to happen to Verizon phones?

I'm confused because I came from at&t. never had such thing on it.

So is Verizon suppose to be like this?

if so is there any mod/tweak that enables me to use data while calling?
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] anton2009:
Yes, this is supposed to happen. You can't do voice + data over 3g, but you can do voice + data over 4g. There is no "mod" available for that will enable the use of data while in a call on 3g.
[Samsung Galaxy Nexus] martonikaj:
Verizon is CDMA, which doesn't offer simultaneous voice/data like GSM does. Unless your phone has SVDO (like the Thunderbolt) it won't do data and talk at the same time over 3G... The VZW GNex doesn't have SVDO.

For the longest time this has been a pain for CDMA carriers (the few that are left) and they're gonna get past it with VoLTE eventually. You'll still see AT&T run ads comparing their iPhone to the VZW iPhone because it can do voice+data at the same time.

If you're on LTE, you can browse LTE data and talk on 3G at the same time, however.
