Hey guys. Just wanted to check if anyone else is having their 3g flake out on them again. I am getting zero 3g, today and last night. Location is Florence, SC. At first I thought maybe the storm front last night was interrupting things. Anyone else?

No problems at all. 3G has been rock solid - Chicago area.

I had it happen for me on thursday. Started getting my texts in bursts (3+ at a time from different people), then my 3g crapped out on me again. ESN swap fixed it the first time, this time I was angry enough to call verizon about it. Now i've got a warranty replacement headed my way supposedly sometime today..... and all i want is my 3g back!

Did a flash back to stock and the signal still stunk. Has to be Verizon in my area. It is pretty bad because I have been getting no signal at all off and on all day for voice as well, not just data. That is bad since my fascie is my only line.

Tried *228, didn't help.

Signal came back late this afternoon and has been back to normal since. Maybe they were working on the towers.

I can hope that they were adding in 4g hardware. ;)

Yes. Happened to me this week-end in Huntersville,NC. Huge battery drain and phone became very hot. I thought it was the radio in the phone. Pulled battery, waited 1 minute, installed fresh battery, rebooted. Problem went away. Maybe just a coincidence?
