Stuck in 1x mode after new update

simko1ra · #1 (**permalink**) 03-11-2008, 09:48 AM

So I updated my phone last night and everything seemed to be working great except that I cannot get my data connection out of 1x speed. Sometimes it will go to normal speed when I am connected to the computer but never otherwise. Any ideas? Anyone else having this problem? Before the update I was very rarely at 1x speeds.

I had the same problem too, I unlock the MSL and enable the mode, after that it stopped working and I change the settings through the registry

I enabled the revision A using the MSL number, but I didn't change any registry settings, should I have?

Did you do a hard reset after the update? I had to do it twice to get my internet working again. Just a suggestion.

I just did a hard reset and it's still stuck in 1x mode. Its very strange since I am at work and before the update I have always been in evdo mode.

After enabling the Rev. A setting in EPST, you MUST run the IOTA tool again to re-provision the service.

I also recommend re-updating to the 60611 or 60711 PRL file.
