EVDO / Everything Unlimted Plan Issue
 

So, as I'm sure a lot of you did, I upgraded yesterday to the Unlimited Everything plan with Sprint. I noticed last night that my phone was being focrced into 1X. I figured it might be tower issues in the area by my work so I figured I would wait until I got home to see if it continued. Sure enough, the problem remained.

After a 1 hour call with a clueless CS rep that ended by him recommending I clear out my IE cache and cookies... (WTF?!!) I finally got someone ackowledge that these issues were cropping up all over the place with people who were being moved to the new plan.

I have a couple of questions:

1) I'm running the new radio/rom. Could this somehow be flagging my account to not allow me to connect?

2) Is anyone else seeing this issue?

3) Should I try to flash back to stock to see if that clears up the problem, or just hang tight?

4) How fast does a Cheetah run?

It might have taken some more time for your phone to prevision the new plan, no problem if it takes a while.

and Im on SERO so no switching for me :)

i have the answer to number 4... 72 MPH.

Re: EVDO / Everything Unlimted Plan Issue
 

Well a Cheetah runs a heck of a lot faster then sprints data speeds. I'm certain about that.

Re: EVDO / Everything Unlimted Plan Issue
 

Depends on which Cheetah you are talking about. That's also the name of the Treo 750 and it runs at 300MHz :)

72 is about the combined IQ of the entire CS staff at Sprint...

go to phone/options/services/mode of operation. Select either hybrid or EVDO only. while in that menu it's also a good idea to go to internet and reprovision.

Re: EVDO / Everything Unlimted Plan Issue
 

It was already set to Hybrid, I've reprovisioned multiple times today in hopes that maybe they have discovered the problem.

Re: EVDO / Everything Unlimted Plan Issue
 

I thought it'd be more like 312 like the CDMA Treos to be exact according to the specs.

~i'm an idiot, i dunno nuthin~

Hmm... after seeing this, I think I'll keep my 49.99 SERO a bit longer... I was going to jump to the unlimited plan but if there are EVDO issues, I'm stayin where I'm at until its fixed.
