Update coming to HTC EVO 4G LTE

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

NO I hear YA ....i told myself to give them a chance with a update and if it wasnt i would make switch to S3 even though i like HTC better. It was unacceptable to have to toggle airplane mode to get 4G when it was available. My fone switched 6 times to 4 LTE within a period of 2 hours driving through areas of LA... where before Id be lucky if I saw one successful switch. Very happy with this fix....now i just wish it wasnt so spotty but that will only get fixed as areas keep getting updated towers.

I will test this weekend

There is an option on the Sense keyboard settings to turn back on the arrows in portrait mode. However, the "keyboard go away" key is now gone.
 
Re: After JB Update Still Having 4G Connection Problems

I live in the Dallas, TX area and I have seen the S3 hold a better 4G signal than my EVO while in the store and with the tech reps messing with it... But over time I have gotten a better and better 4G signal and in more places in the last month or so as it appears they are just building out the 4G network more and more... It does not appear to have a stronger connection than the S3 but as the network builds out more and more (at least in the area's I work/play/live) the 4G connection issues has become less and less.... Sprints overall 4G LTE network is limited but improving...

Even though one Sprint tech rep told me I was connecting to Wi-Max not LTE with my EVO 4G LTE... Which does not even have Wi-Max radio's so go figure that one out... A Sprint Tech/Repair rep is claiming my EVO 4G LTE is connecting to Wi-Max not LTE and we won't have LTE in Dallas until February 2013.... Hmmmm.... Way to hire and keep your people informed Sprint..

Re: Update coming to HTC evo 4g lte

As you know, the screen is supposed to go blank when you put the phone to your ear while making or receiving a call. But with JB when I bring the phone back down to end the call the screen stays blank so the phone does not disconnect until the other person hangs up. Anyone else having that problem, and is there a fix in settings? Also with Google Now, there is no provision to select a time interval for the search, e.g. last 24 hours. For time searches, I am using the orginal mobile version of Google, which used to be the screen with the old Google Search.

Some of you have commented on the increase in speed with JB. I agree. The quadrant benchmark test is now 6300 versus 5300 with ICS.

No no. I mean the setting where you can make the phone stay awake while charging doesn't work anymore. Noticed the phone is charging very slowly. Just throwing things out there as they occur to me.

Figured it out. Screen will not stay awake if power saver mode is on.

Anyone know what the"rescue" app is for? I think that's new?

I think if it weren't for sprint, HTC would have completely abandoned this phone. It still says it's on ICS on their website.

Who cares, the phone can be updated right?

I don't think they'd change the website until they start shipping units with Jelly Bean installed.

Noticed the same thing today on my EVO. Kinda weird, but not a show-stopper. Have no idea if there's a fix for this or not.

OK, JB downloaded and installed and operational. Gonna take a lil adjusting and playing with but seems fine so far. Missing my voice input for emails but I guess I'll figure out where the hell it went to eventually. :)
