4 connection busted

[MrAnticipation]

After the froyo official update was downloaded to my phone my 4g stopped working. 4g will not start it just says turning on 4g but it never turns on. Then when I turn the phone off and turn it back on it says 4g failed. I also tried a hard reset, and received the message unable to start 4g. Anyone else 4g not turning on, and yes I'm in a 4g area.

Been there done that, when I went to the Sprint repair center I told the guy it read " 4g failed" he said he never heard that before. Long story short they had to ship me a new phone. But I was told by Sprint a tech to hard reset it and to updated the PRL and the data first to no avail then sprint told me to take it in.

I wonder if you can just flash the latest wiimax radio and it'll work.
If you have your phone rooted and know about pushing/flashing, then here's a link:

However, if I used my brain... you lost it after you applied 2.2 htc froyo, so I guess there's no root method for that.
Umm... I don't know any fix.... You could wait it off and if you plan on rooting your phone, what I posted above seems like a good fix.

Thanks for the replies, I guess I'll be taking it to the sprint store because I don't know anything about rooting.

I have the same problem. I installed froyo the day it was available over the air, had my evo since launch day, but today the 4g failed to connect. Was on the phone with 3 levels of tech support for hours, and in the end they basically offered an appointment at a sprint tech shop.

first, 4g would not connect, the wireless settings under menu just cycled from 4g on (it wasnt ever connected) to 4g scanning, to 4g off, over and over. This killed 40% of my battery in one hour! Eventually one of their software updates did something and the 4g wireless setting said, "4g unable to start".

I reluctantly did a hard reset after 2 failed attempts to update my phone from sprints side. The cycling 4g stopped but now the message reads "4g failed".

Annoyed but **** happens.
