Re: Increase call quality!
 

i actually got it from a cs rep....she sounded clueless but gave it up to me very easy...

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I just changed my Home and Roaming origin. I went into ##DATA#, then view mode, Advanced, and under EVRC-B it says Disable. Home and Roam Orig are set to EVRC-B though. So is it working, even if the EVRC-B setting says Disable?

Re: Increase call quality!
 

does this hack really make a difference

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Kaspersky Anti-Virus thinks the "demo" from the website in that link has a Trojan (Midgare?).

Just sayin'.....

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Please keep in mind this is not a hack. EVRC-b is an advancement of EVRC. This is an option that is in the phone itself. Therfore you are just selecting to use it. I have noticed that my call quality is clearer. I didn't think it would make much of a differenct but I don't get the occasional garble like I did before I changed it. As for the effect on battery life...no change. It seems to only change the bandwith so that the transmission is a bit faster. I'm using it from now on untill I notice a problem...so far so good!

Re: Increase call quality!
 

just the way I like it ;)

Re: Increase call quality!
 

so i did the switch and it made my phone slower and it takes way longer to start up now....

Re: Increase call quality!
 

worked for me

Any luck getting MSL from Chat?
 

Has anybody had any luck getting the MSL number out of a chat session from your account page?

You get a transcipt emailed to you at the conclusion. Good way to save the number, and save the conversation if any promises, etc.

Thanks!!

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I got my MSL by asking a rep "Would you mind giving me my MSL, please?" That's it. haha

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Read through the thread up until now I haven't seen anyone ask about the "EVRC-B" disable/enable..

What, if any change you guys make there?

Re: Increase call quality!
 

its asking me for a password in edit mode?????? any suggestions:confused2:

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Have you got your MSL? If so, enter that in for your "password"

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Me to. I dialed in from a regular landline and hit the option for phone support. Spoke to the women nicely, made her laugh, then just said, can I just get my MSL code. She said sure, here you go.....

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Called Sprint and they gave my MLS...We will see how this does for the call quality and battery :D

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I just want to Thank you guys and gals...I know it is not a lot compared to others on the site, but my reputation just hit 500. WooHoo!!!

Re: Increase call quality!
 

For those of you that are having a hard time getting your MSL from sprint, here is a link to a thread over at XDA that may help you out. I have not tried it but it seems like a lot of people are having success with this method through the phone.

God, change the name of this thread to "How to get your MSL/Everyone got it from a CS agent at Sprint so i'll post that I did too..."

For those who have enabled EVRC-B, have you noticed any dropped calls going from one tower to another? Anyone had issues with roaming? I saw one person said that their battery life wasn't affected, how's everyone else's battery doing? Let us know!

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I haven't made any calls since I switched by my standby hasn't changed at all in reagrds to the battery.......Changed it like 3 hours ago.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

im wondering about this too. I guess i'll enable/disable and see if there is a difference.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Called asked for tech support, got the financial dept, but the lady still gave me the msl within 30 seconds... made the changes and gonna see if its any better.

thanks op.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

They gave you your MLS....thats for buying a house. I think you need MSL:)

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I have a feeling that EVRC-B is not actually enabled unless you change the additional EVRC-B setting in ##3282# Advanced settings. I have an Airave at home which I have read does not support EVRC-B. When I changed the Home and Roam settings to EVRC-B as per the original thread, calls continued to work on the Airave (there is a tone at the beginning of the call that indicates that you are connected to the Airave. When I then set EVRC-B to enabled in ##3282#, the phone was no longer able to make a call while in the vicinity of the airave. Several attempts to place a call failed. As soon as I disabled that option calls began to work again.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I enabled it in ##3282# and I also cannot make a call... I don't have an Airave...
When I went to place a call I got a busy type tone and the phone said

Re: Increase call quality!
 

That's the same thing I got. Maybe we're both near towers that don't support EVRC-B?

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Possibly. I don't know. I'm not gonna use it obviously since I want my phone to work.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I am actually getting static, and some people complain that they suddenly can't hear me. I am also getting random echoing of my own voice. Seems sporadic and unstable, especially moving around.

EDIT: Gonna set mine to Voice 13k, supposedly better call quality, but EVRC handles low signal areas better.

http://pdaphonehome.com/forums/samsu...l-quality.html

Re: Increase call quality!
 

i noticed no difference at all if not worse signal in low signal areas

Re: Increase call quality!
 

So this is a huge fail.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

well dont know if this does anything worth keeping..

i know the original settings for roam are the voice 13k

whats the other one? forgot


just want to make the sound louder

Re: Increase call quality!
 

If there were really a benefit to using EVRC-B without a downside wouldn't it already be enabled? :scratch:

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Home is just EVRC

Re: Increase call quality!
 

would it make a diff if i set roaming to something diff than the home setting? like leaving it in the voice 13k setting?


i know signal is low in my room where i charge the phone, it didnt ring this morning so i was thinking about changing it back at least the roaming part of it.


i just want to increase the sound of the earpiece on call

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Wow getting the msl is always been as easy as just calling and asking for it polity like YOU know why you need it. They might not know what its for but if you ask straight out for your MSL code like its an everyday thing and you'll get it just be polite. I have never once in my 14 years with this company ever been told no.

I'm trying this hack now see how it works out. So airrave def doesnt work with this?


Does this affect 4g at all?

I wouldnt adjust the roaming unless your roaming allot. Im going with just the home. Right now it seems to have made my calls crisper and much better signal. Ill test further thru the day and in different areas.,

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I also noticed no difference in call quality but my call quality was descent before. It's definitly a placebo effect. The only phone I can say has the best call quality (that I have owned) was the Pre but I am happy with my EVO.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Good thought, but that theory has proven to not be true with many of the phone manufacturers.

If that was the case, you would not have so may ROM Cooks tweaking stock settings for better performance or battery life. These are things the phone Mfg's seem to intentionally overlook, or overlook because they are clueless!

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I used the sprint chat function from my account page and the rep gave me my MSL, I simply told him I wanted to change to evrc-b and they didn't seem to put up any fight once he realized he couldn't make the change himself.

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Crap! i call sprint and they gav me hard time. He doesn't know what is EVRC so I ask for the MSL number and he said he will need to reprogram my phone or I need to take it to sprint store.....I was like "HELL NO.....BYE"

Re: Increase call quality!
 

I enabled it in ##3282# and I was able to make a call I also have an Airave. but the issue that i have been coming across si people have said that when they call me it goes straight to voice mail. i called my phone from the home phone and it did it 4 times in a row. any1 ran into this issue?

Re: Increase call quality!
 

Does this work? I see more people asking about msl's then anyone noticing a change in call quality.
