3G Headaches...

---

2 EVO LTEs, both running latest firmware package with updated radios. One running stock rooted, the other Mean Bean. Last night at a basketball game, my phone (Mean Bean) never could keep a connection, it would drop data, and go to 1x, then drop 1x over and over and I couldn't update my status let alone upload photos My wife's (stock rooted) had no issues. Held 3G all night and she could upload Facebook photos of the game.

Seriously what makes this happen? Can a ROM have any effect on the 3G connection? I already checked the build.prop for Mean Bean to make sure it wasn't including any of that 3G Turbocharger RIL changes which I know can cause connection problems in certain situations...

Actually, not the latest firmware, I didn't know there was a 3.16. They are both running 3.15 with the 3.15 radio/PRI/etc...

Have you tried updating your profile & Prl?? Also have you tried a data reset ??

I'm having this exact same issue, it seems to persist on any Sense or AOSP rom. Whats the deal? Do I need to update my radios or something? I'm on PRL 25009 and baseband 1.12.11.1119 currently running CM 10.1, but I've had the same problems no matter what ROM I'm on.

Yes i had the same problem with data connection and battery drain due to the crappy radio (1.12.11.1119).so I flashed a different radio and that fixed my problems.update your full firmware to the 3.16 base that includes the latest radio img.,but doesn't include the tp.img to the latest and then update your profile and prl.

You can get the full firmware here =

It seems all lte devices have this issue. For some reason lte devices constantly drop down to 1xrtt. My note 2 and Evo lte constantly do it while my gs2 and evo 3d hold a steady evdo connection. I also heard some ppl with the LGOG have the same issue. I toggle airplane mode on and off to get ehrp back on. It's a bit annoying but I'm betting it has to do with the device scanning for lte and making it drop to 2g.
