Re: [Rumor] July 11th Update
Really though. This phone is a beast. I love it. The only two things that annoy me is that I live on the tip of a 4g area/mediocre coverage area. Its weird but 4g actually works on our street (my neighbor has an evo 3d and my friend at the end of the block has a evo shift 4g) and they both get a stable 4g connection in their houses. We are a ways from where the 4g is suppose to trail off but it works well by us (about a mile from the freeway in Northern Sacramento midway between downtown and the airport.) I am upstairs in my house and I can't get it to remain stable, it jumps in and out. But then on the Wifi front, my roommate and I have the router downstairs and on my palm pre I used to get about half signal or a bit better to my room, enough to run fine. Now I barely get bar/cuts back to 3g. Most of the time I dont notice the transition if I am on Pandora or Twitter posting. But especially when I do an upload or something that takes more than a quick or low burst of data I get the errors or a retrying connection. Its my only issue. If they update and fix it just to improve it if only by a little, I would hands down say this is the best phone I have owned. Oh and the Evo 3d's wifi sucks. The 3g/4g works pretty well but wifi was worse than mine. He brought his phone over to do some comparisons and he could barely get a bar of strength. But his 3g/4g worked flawless so I guess thats what counts haha
They better do something soon. these signal issues are getting ridiculous.
