Re: Problems... Dropped calls and no signal

I'm coming from a Touch Pro 2 and I'm seeing about the same signal strength between the 2 at home and at work.

Re: Problems... Dropped calls and no signal

My Evo3D has the same coverage as my 4G had. No problems so far here in Orlando.

Re: Problems... Dropped calls and no signal

Well finally noticed calls going directly to voicemail while at home. Contacted customer service and they are shipping me an airave at no cost. I've always had poor signal quality at home but not to the point of missing several calls as I've had with the 3D.

I'm getting the airave too for free. Sprint waived the monthly fee as well.

Re: Problems... Dropped calls and no signal

I have the same problem. I ordered a replacement phone and it looks like more of the same. HTC needs to fix this ASAP. Thinking I might go back to my EVO 4G.

I was told by both the chat rep and the sales rep that there would be no monthly service cost. I have the chat saved just in case they change their mind down the line.

I got the airave over a year ago for free due to the poor signal where I live. Sprint does charge you $5 each month but then they give you a $5 credit so yes it is free in the end.

For calls yes. For data, still having data outage in my area so nothing will help until that is fixed. Did go a half mile from my home and was getting 1.5mbs in the late afternoon. Makes me want to move lol. I am in a 3g only city.
