I have an airave and haven't noticed any of those issues. I get the expected three beeps confirming connection to the airave, but no beeps after that. And believe me I'm constantly having to pull my phone away from my ear...wife thinks she needs to yell on the phone when she can't hear herself because of wind or background noise on her side.

Try doing a prl and profile update, then reboot your phone. I've had to do that on a regular basis with my photon. It didn't like to play well with the airave.

Activated my new Evo LTE this morning. It didn't take long to realize that data speeds were nowhere near what I had with my Evo 4G. Connection completely lost in places where my 4G would at least roam; web pages taking forever to load, if ever; apps taking minutes to download.... So I decided to drive around town and do some Speed Test runs, and the results shocked me. I averaged 200kbps down and 40kbps up after about 20 tests, in areas where my Evo 4G will routinely do 1600kbps down and 700kbps up.

When I read about poor data speeds in some of the early reviews, I thought maybe the blogger had gotten a bad unit, or Sprint was just bad in their area. Well, maybe I too got a bad unit, but in light of the difference with my Evo 4G, I KNOW the network isn't an issue in my area. Could I try a replacement? Sure, but based on those reviews, and feedback others are providing in these very forums, I'm thinking the Evo LTE may have flawed antennas. Beautiful device...absolutely beautiful...but a phone without a data connection is worthless.

So...I'm sending mine back for a full refund and return to pre-upgrade status. If you're having reception issues now, I urge you to dig deeper before your return window expires. Don't let the euphoria of a new phone lead you down a path of misery for the next two years as you deny what you know you're seeing.

i live in miami,fl and man 3g is fast i am able to make phone calls while surfing the web that is freaking great so i think you have a bad unit....
