What did you do?
I use this thing to run my business, and at my home I never had issues with dropped calls with my Evo 4G. With the 3d, it happens frequently where a call comes in, I answer, I hear them say one sentence, and bam, call disconnected. Just now I called someone and I could tell I was going to drop this call as well because of how the ring tone sounded waiting for them to answer my call, and sure enough, dropped immidiately.
I did have some problems with the Evo 4g starting to drop calls some time after the gingerbread update, but I am sure that was a coincidence. They also messed around with some of the towers in my area which Sprint admitted to but which they said has been resolved since then.
All in all, the performance of my Evo 3d is extremly sporadic for both voice and data. I need a reliable phone, and the way things are now, it's anything but reliable.
So, what do you think will help?
1. A complete phone reset? or....
2. Should I not my waste my time with a reset and get a replacement while I can?
At this point in time I am just not sure if either of those two options will fix my problems.
I suppose the next thing would be to try to exchange it for a Photon 4g and hope that thing has a better radio than the 3d, but of course, that comes out a week after my return time is over, will have to call Sprint and see if they will give me some leeway here.
This sucks. I was hoping I'd be happy with the phone, but it not working properly as a phone is a real bummer. Add to that that despite of having my emails set to be checked every 15 minutes, the phone doesn't bother to tell me about them until hours later, sometimes even not until the next day. As a business phone, that's unacceptable!
