Hi guys. I love this phone so far. 3g is great and I cant believe I am saying this but the nexus used to hold the 4g better, I never got more than one bar at home with that phone but it never dropped 4g at my house. The evo 3d is just plain terrible at 4g connection. I downloaded the signal info app and I am surprised that the signal is much better than the nexus but droppage is consistent.
The signal goes from -77 to -95 sitting in the same location and keeps jumping around. One time I will have 2 bars and 2 seconds later I will have none, sometimes it works for an hour and the next thing I know it will drop 4g every 5 mins. Very annoying.
Today I decided to give it a go outside. I was with my friend going to school and I was testing out 4g and it did the same thing. Full bars at one spot and next thing I know there are no bars. The same drive my nexus held on to 1 bar all the way through to school. I am kinda amazed that the signal jumps around so much on this phone. While the signal strength seems to be better the actual stability is questionable.
I called amazon and since I exchanged the phone for nexus they told me wait until they recieve that phone and call back to exchange my evo for a new one.
I love the phone and it has no other problem but inconsistent 4g is pissing me off, since I live in good 4g coverage area. If I didn't have nexus( the phone that appearently has connection issues) I might not have knows, but with that phone one bar was all I needed. It would not fluctuate from one bar to no bar, to 2 bars and none.
Anyone having similar issue with 4g? I dont wanna exchange the phone if other people might be having similar inconsistent 4g connection, I might wait for an update.
