  1. finally, after speaking to three different people, arguing with the last one about the G2 needing a sim (she said no), getting disconnected and then called back (that was nice), I have a sim on order. However, its on back order so it may be a little while until I get it. thanks for the help guys, I'll be back when I activate the G2 and need to complain about something.
  2. Went to my local Sprint store today and they said they didnt have any. Didnt even seem interested to help me. And then the lead tech says that if they had any they would charge me $75 for it. :angry: :angry: I'll try calling Sprint International today if I dont make it to another store.
  3. thanks, will try this if I get shot down again at the Sprint store.
  4. where can I find the phone number to Sprint International? Why International instead of just regular Sprint customer service?
  5. yeah thats the one that said $35. I'll try to stop by again this weekend and try again.
  6. Do I have to say something other than "I bought a used phone without a sim?" I'm not sure how to tell if a store is a corporate store.
  7. I just bought a used G2 but it didnt come with the LTE sim. My local Sprint store says that will cost $35 to replace. Is there any way to get it cheaper? Can I just buy the sim and do it myself? My Sprint store wants to put it in for me. I've been watching for one to pop up on ebay for $20 or less but so far no luck.
  8. I almost never get LTE in a place that I want it. It works on the 2nd floor of my house but not first. It doesnt work at any family or friends houses. It rarely works when I'm out anywhere and especially not when I need a fast data connection. It does work on most freeways and at the gym I go to. sigh This is in Houston.
  9. I'm pretty sure that the rom I'm running isnt preventing the change from taking affect but when I am able, I'll try going back to stock and retrying. I dont know if my 3g connection is CDMA1X. I'm just going by the icon at the top that switches from 4g to 3g to 1x. Sorry for the delay in replying... Had to put this aside for a few days while other priorities ate up my free time.
  10. Tried changing to "LTE/CDMA auto" but I still get a 3g connection (and 1x)
  11. Thanks! I actually did mean EVO LTE but I've gotten used to calling it One X since thats what its named for every other carrier. Maybe a mod can clean up that title for me...
  12. I'm in Houston, which is listed as being 70% completed but in reality I get poor speeds almost everywhere I go. Part of this is because my phone might show its on 4g but within a minute of doing anything on it, it will lose all data connection while it searches for a network. Then it will end up on 3g which is one tiny step up from useless. After a few minutes it will again lose connection while it works on switching to 4g and then the cycle will repeat itself. Everytime it switches from 4g to 3g or even 1x, I have no data connection for a maybe 10-15 seconds. Is there a way to change a setting that will allow the phone to stay on 4g longer before switching to 3g? Even if its completely lost the LTE signal, I'd rather wait 10-15 seconds for the phone to get back on 4g rather than waste time on 3g and then waste more time switching back to 4g.
