Re: Are you having trouble staying in 3G (getting stuck in 1X), VZW TP2 folks?

Then, after the phone times out/goes to sleep, upon waking it'll have switched to 1X, where it stays no matter if I move back into a 3G area.

The only way I'm now able to get back on 3G is to do a *228 option 2. I can no longer simply reset the phone.

P.S. 8notime, did you still need testing on receiving 1X calls while using data or are you good with that?
I'm good on the testing piece. I've learned that Verizon has the capability to interrupt a 1x data session to put a call through, so that's expected behavior.

The way you are able to duplicate the problem is interesting. Being in downtown Seattle, maybe it's a little more rare for me to get 1x, explaining why the pattern for this happening is so random.
