Problems... Dropped calls and no signal

[Pitchblack98]

Is anyone having problems with dropped calls or signal strength? It has to be my EVO 3D cause I never had problems with my EVO 4g. I pretty much have no signal in my house while my wife has full signal on her EVO 4g sitting right next to me. It is constantly switching back and forth to roaming. My battery is dead in about 3 hours with my phone just sitting with no use at all at home.

I can't pick up 4g in my office at work. If I walk outside I get a weak signal. My EVO 4g would connect with a good signal every day.

I am also dropping at least 50% of my calls while driving around. I do a lot of driving for work and can't remember the last time I dropped a call with my EVO 4g.

Is it just my phone or do all of the EVO 3D's have problems like this? It looks like I am going to be sending mine back and sticking with my EVO 4g unless there is a solution to this...

I live in the Denver metro area if anyone was wondering or thinking I was out in the middle of no where.

I'm having the same problem also and consider sending it back. Although I'm sure an update will come out soon for this issue. All you can do is tell HTC. Infact I'm doing it now.

I am having the same problems. This signal strength sucks. I returned my first 3D and exchanged it thinking it was just THAT unit, but the new one is the same. I did notice on the 2nd one, it had better strength before I did the update. After the update it got worse. Spots where I usually would run 6-9meg download speeds on 4g are 50k. Something better get fixed quick.

Yeah, my 3d drops calls more than my Evo did. Not sure it is enough to make me return it though as the areas where it has dropped calls is bad areas. I am going to hold out for an update. Like too much about this phone to give up right now.

Email HTC or Sprint about this problem. I did. This way this problem gets documented and hopefully a fix will on it's way!!

I am having the same... I have usually full bars at work.... But I am dropping calls and my phone keeps telling me that I am roaming!!

Hi guys, I noticed that both of my EVO 3 D’s have the same network connectivity issue.

[Pitchblack98]

This sucks. I get a bunch of voice mails after sitting at home for a while and going out to where I get a signal. My phone never rings or anything when I'm home. I'm probably going to tough it out for another week, but if this isn't fixed I have to send it back. Its the only phone I have and for it to not work when I'm home and constantly dropping calls is unacceptable.

Just compared my 3 D's, TP2 and TP1.

Areas in my house where my TP2 and TP1 has 3-4 bars consistent, the EVO's bounces around between 0-3 at the most.

I know it is hard 2 compare apples and oranges, but it defiantly should be more consistent.



Now this could be a deal breaker for me.
