Re: Dropping data connection after new rom..

well update,,
I went back to the stock alltel rom,, and all was well,, back to perfect internet...
Just two days ago I found DCD.s newest rom,, and tried it, and the radio again,,
and it started doing it again,,,

Just a piece of information that i thought would be helpful,, i found this info by accident,, and now am going to have to travel the net for days to try and find where i saw it,, but it was in a wiki somewhere i think,, someone was complaining about poor evdo speeds through sprint,,, and in one of the replies someone stated that they had the same problem,, and also had a problem with dropping their connection,, then went on to state that they were using the new gps radio and rom,,, someone else chimed in and made a quick statement that they had this problem and had contacted sprint,, who told them that since sprint hasnt released the new rom yet, and their network is not fully implimented for rev-a yet,, that these new radio roms were causing warning flags in the sprint and alltel system because of the way it is interacting with the system,, when these flags are raised to such an extent the system boots the unit off of the data conncetion... this would affect alltel as well as sprint because of the evdo roaming agreement they have filed,,,

Just thinking that once the official release is out,, and the network is fully operational this may clear itself up,,

just a thought...

Editing content---------------------------------------

Just to clarify a little more about my problem,, to seperate it from others
I have read others posts on sites,, they state that they are having to reconnect their data like every hour or so,,, this is in no case my problem...
I can connect to the data network and leave my phone laying around all night and all day, and when i pick it up it is still logged on, and i can browse to pages...
but when i start to do something data intensive it drops me,, if im just browsing small sites it seems i can stay connected for quite some time,, but if i go to a fast server like microsoft or something that eats a lot of bandwidth, i get kicked, the bubble pops up saying error could not establish connection,, i have to click dismiss and start all over again,,,
