When I first got me Evo this thing cruised on 3G. In horrible areas I barely saw below 1M.
Lately it has been getting 500K if lucky.
Starting last night it struggles to get 50kb.
4G cruises as it did, but 3G is soo poor!!!!
I tried in a few diff areas like 40 miles apart and mostly slow as stated. I saw a couple quick spurts this morning of over 1MB and I got excited again, but didnt last long.
I finally called a local Sprint store because customer service is useless. They tried to tell me that maybe due to putting up more 4G towers that the 3G towers were coming down and maybe maxing out the remaining up 3G towers while this work was being done?
WTF????? arent the 3G and 4G on totally seperate infrastructures all in all? Why would they need to take down/affect 3G service to update already running 4G service in the same area?
Am I miss understanding how the towers work? Or are they feeding me BS as I think they are?
maxing the towers is one thing and i can partially buy that, but the rest sounds like BS to me
