EVO 4G LTE Android Jelly Bean Update 3.15.651.16

I'm OK with cycling airplane mode to initially get LTE. My big problem with the EVO was keeping a LTE Connection. If it is able to hold LTE better, then I say it is a success.

I am thinking it's probably the best bandaid they can put on it for now. There probably is indeed a hardware issue that can't be corrected. So it will be partially corrected and will fix some people's issues but not all

 

And before someone bashes me, I really do hope I am wrong and this fixes it 100% and holds its own next to the S3. I still have a Evo LTE on my account.

Yes, this is exactly what I'm dealing with.

real quick, i wanted to add that video can now be recorded to 1080. i only remember 720 being an option.

 

Default was 720p but 1080p has always been an option.

You're right, the front was 720p. i could have sworn though that there was no 1080p. just an oversight on my part. I do like the change to the options though on the camera.

Firmware is software.

 

Is that like the difference between floaters and sinkers?

 

:P

Getting the update now, interested in hearing from the rest of you about your lte connection after the update. Tempted to get in the car tonight and drive around to see how far i can go with the signal now. I was frustrated earlier this evening on the east side of Indy when i couldn't get an lte connection, but when i looked at the sensorly map clearly others had gotten lte connections right where i was at. Arrrggg....

Anybody knows why the power save feature toggles on automatically when bat level reaches 14 % (yellow) even if I had battery saver turned off in the first place?

 

An attempt to save the last drop of your battery maybe?

Just got Jelly Bean this morning. It broke my WIFI network. Settings say I'm connected, but all I get is voice mail - NO DATA! Anyone else having problems? Ideas or suggestions?

 

It did that to me last night. I had to wipe my phone and then it worked fine. It sucked reloading all my stuff again though.

Also noticed that the voice-to-text option is now gone from both the stock and Swype keyboards. Anyone else notice this? Anyway to get it back?

I use the downloaded swype keyboard as it has additional language support, but it still has voice to text capabilities.

With nearly any device (save maybe the Note 2 and iPhone) you have to toggle to get to LTE RIGHT AWAY. The problem was that the EVO took way longer to discover LTE on it's own. The other phones usually found it within a few minutes, the EVO waited sometimes up to half an hour. I don't have LTE here in Missouri, so I can't test that.

 

 

 

Never knew the keyboard had arrows... :scratch: guess I never looked lol.

What blue accents? Not sure what you mean there.

 

Could you swipe to switch between keyboards before? I don't remember that.

 

My phone doesn't seem to be running any faster, or slower than it was before. Still just as smooth as ever.

 

My Gnex doesn't take minutes to find lte mostly seconds

On the stock keyboard, hold down the "." (period) button ... is that what you are looking for?

    • T-Mobile has saved its 28Mhz mmWave licenses by using the point to point method to do environment monitoring inside its cabinets. The attachment below shows the antennas used: https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsApp/ApplicationSearch/applAdmin.jsp;JSESSIONID_APPSEARCH=LxvbnJuvusmIklPhKy6gVK7f9uwylrZ8LiNf3BqIKlDp3_5GxoBr!300973589!225089709?applID=14787154#   Here are the sites for Franklin county OH: https://wireless2.fcc.gov/UlsEntry/attachments/attachmentViewRD.jsp?applType=search&fileKey=66518254&attachmentKey=21989782&attachmentInd=applAttach
    • Yep, there is a label on the side of the box but it doesn't provide any useful info that the city doesn't already provide (Crown Castle Solutions is the franchisee). You can see my graphical interpretation of the city's dataset here.

    • Totally agree.  In my county and surrounding counties, TM did not place n-41 on every site.  When I look at the sites in question, I probably would have not placed it there either.  I can find just a few with n-71 only and in most of those cases if you live there and know the probable usage of the residents, you would not do a full upgrade on those sites.  One site in particular is set up to force feed n-71 through a long tunnel on the Turnpike.  No stopping allowed in the tunnel. No stores, movie theaters, bathrooms, so n41 would be a waste.    n25 is not really needed either, so it is not there.  The tunnel is going through & under a mountain with more black bears than people.  TM was smart.  Get good coverage in the tunnel but do not waste many many thousands of dollars with extra unused spectrum. I also see sites with only n71 & n25.  Again this makes sense to me.  Depending on what county we are talking about, they moved much of their b25 from LTE to nr.  Some counties have more n25 than a neighboring county, but luckily, it is plenty everywhere.   When you are in a very rural area, n41 can run up the bills and then be barely used.  I am NOT finding sites that should have had n41 but TM failed to provide it.  They may have to come back later in a few years and upgrade the site to n41.  However, we just may eventually see the last little piece on Band 25 leave LTE and move to n25. I am not sure if the satellite to phone service is using band 25 G block as LTE or nr. We also can possibly have at least some AWS move from LTE to nr at some point.  Yes, everybody wants n41. it is not justified in some cases.  When I travel, I desire some decent service along the entire route but it does not have to be 1 or 2 gig download.   If I can get 50/5 on a speedtest with data that will flow and not stutter, I am very happy. Yes, they will swap out the USC gear.  TM needs to match their existing network. The USCC equipment did the job for years, but it is time to retire it.
    • Lots of time if you can get close to the pole, you will see a sticky label on the box that is low enough to read. Most of the time it warns of RF exposure but also it may have a toll free number to call if there is an issue. Sometimes there is a power company meter with the name of the user. I would be surprised if there was nothing there to help identify it.  Thinking further, if this is multi-Tenant oDAS, then maybe you might only see some name like Crown Castle or maybe even a department in the city government.   An app on your phone may show the carrier(s)
