Three weeks of official Jelly Bean bugs on the HTC EVO 4G LTE

I haven't seen the JB update on mine yet - at least I don't think.

 

I'm on 4.0.3 after running updates - isn't that ICS?

 

Yeah, it is. You've gone through the Seetings > System Update route already? JB started getting pushed to phones about 2 weeks ago, and has been available since December.

Yes, I initiated an update last night after unpacking it and activating it and it ran an update. Could it be that updated ICS and then it will let me update to JB? That's odd...

Thats is how I understand it. The updates have to be done in order and not skipped. It would be interesting to know what the date of manufacture was.

i just have only couples of "bugs"

- proximity sensor on calls

- power save is turn off, and kill the data connection ( LTE, 3G or wifi)

- force close on apps that use google maps (sensorly)

- no 4x1 people widgets (contacts) [no bug, just sprint or htc revome it]

- htc hub not found connection (i use OMJ rom, is a stock rom w/ goodies) [ i think sprint or htc remove it]

- too slow, even i kill tasks (only fix is a hard reset) [the ram is alway on 850MB minimum]

- if i enable the eHRPD and restart the phone, goes off again

 

i see better things:

- less 1x moments (before my phone go back to 1x even if have 3g coverage)

- better syncing

- better social implementation

- less time on connecting the calls

- a little bit better battery life

 

in PR we're experiencing a lot of problems (i know, NV upgrade)

You're right I ran through 2 more ICS updates and then came the JB update.

Ok, so I'm used to having the Wimax 4G and toggling the scan on and off. So what am I looking for? If I'm in a known LTE spot and toggle the airplane mode will I just see an LTE icon pop up if it connects?

The 3G icon at the top will change to 4G. That's about it.

    • Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.
    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
