Re: Problems... Dropped calls and no signal
I am having the same problem as most of you. The problem is not severe enough where I can't make or receive calls but a few times my phone was in roaming when I should have had full bars EV. Also when it is not in roaming my data speeds are slower than even my Touch Pro 2 was. I have also had issues a few times getting it to connect to my airave. On the up side I was able to get strong roaming in an area where my Touch Pro 2 couldn't get anything. My guess is it is a software issue as my EVO worked fine the first day I had it. Then I accidentally did the automatic update and was having problems right away. I remember reading on XDA somewhere someone saying don't do the update.

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.

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.
