Hey,
Sometimes, I will be using the same setup, and I notice that EVDO drops to 1x.
I check taskmanager, and sure enough that "ActiveStync", is running.

I have tried that workaround (create a dummy Server Source), No Luck.
I don't even use Exchange Server.

Don't know if this helps, but it might be related?

I have a question to the carrier employees:
How did you go about getting hired?

Here's what I've done so far:
I walked into a Sprint store. They told me to apply online.
I found and set up the hiring related info. Got emails with job openings.
Applied, did every step. Looked good. But nothing ever came of it. Ever.

I looked online with the other major carriers after not being successful to land a job with sprint. They don't even show my city in their job search criteria (Lawton, OK).

Is there a better way for me to go about it? I'm interested in either a sales or cs position, tier1 tech maybe.

Your input is absolutely appreciated!!!

im not sure then.do u plan on making a career of it? I didnt so i went the indirect route. theres not much room for advancement but they pay a lot more per contract. the going rate is $50 per new contract and 15 per upgrade. If you go that route make sure you do your research on the company first. make sure thier a reputable company and also you want an inline store thats exclusive to sprint. Most people dont know the difference from a corp. store.

I was getting roughly 14-16 hours with mild usage out of my Diamond.

I brought it in to my local Sprint store because of the oily mark in the middle of the screen, and they said they would fix it, 30 minutes later they had completely broke it and told me I was getting a replacement overnighted.

They sent me a refurb which at first looked good, but then I noticed some kind of glue on the edge of the screen that had oozed out and dried, and after putting my fully charged battery in it, I unlocked and flash my ROM. I got 4 hours before it was down to 20% making no calls, and maybe 10 texts. WiFi off, Bluetooth off, and the only data I used was a dashwire restore.

I figured it must be the ROM, so I flashed back to shipped and still 4 hours after a full charge, 1 bar on the battery meter wth NO usage other than Dashwire for 5 minutes. No programs running. Just sitting there.

It has the same radio as my old one and has a good signal.

Makes me want to go into the Sprint store and demand a new, not refurbished phone.

Anybody know why the battery would drain so fast? I gonna be up ****s creek at work Monday.
