Ok Please forgive me but I thought i knew .... But now I'm more confused than ever ... I am trying to figure out when my phone is using 3G,4G,Wifi,Hotspot,MobileNetwork and when is one replacing the other automatically ... Having to deal with battery issues I thought I had a pulse on what to turn on and off but I need help figuring out what does what and when it does it .
3G: when is it used and what uses it
4G: When is it used and what uses it
Wifi: when is it used and what is using it
Hotspot: When is it used and what is using it
Mobile Network: When is it used and what is using it.
I live at the base of the "Hollywood Hills" and my reception in my Apt is non existent ... 2 bars max on a great day ... I have to make all important phone calls out by the pool ... I don't know what the bars represent .. Now lets move to Wifi ... On my computer I get a 3BAR weak signal from a nearby coffee house that I use for free but my phone doesnt pick it up ... But when i turn on EVOs "hotspot" , my computer shows Full strength ... Now I dont get where this signal is coming from cuz all reception is piss poor on my phone but when the hotspot is running its on FULL STRENGTH ... Because I do not subscribe to the HOTSPOT PREMIUM PACKAGE it will not let me connect but it still shows the FULL BARS on my Laptop ... Can someone explain all this to me as if I was a 7 year old ... cuz I am LOST.
