HTC EVO 4G LTE

The htc one was released a 2 or so weeks before the S4 and that didn't help.

After the requisite delays and lawsuits. Hopefully they can avoid all that this time. They almost have to as they cannot afford to release after Samsung.

If you remember it was supposed to be almost two months prior. A two week window is to small to capture somebody else s sales in a significant amount.

If they could somehow launch it in mid to late Feb or early March then they might be okay.

Two weeks or two months, doesn't really make a difference.  There is nothing htc can do to significantly impact sales of the next galaxy phone.  HTC simply doesn't have the marketing budget like what samsung has, and thats what it will always come down to.  I really hope HTC can partner up with a much larger corporation so they can get the capital needed to compete with samsung on advertising.

I agree to a certain extent. Mostly because we have no idea how many more phones HTC would have sold if there was no delay and how many of those sales would have been stolen from Samsung. What we do know is that releasing your flagship phone  so close to Samsungs flagship is not a good idea for anybody save Apple.

Very true.  Actually what I wish they would do is release the device no more than a couple of weeks after it has been officially announced.  When the One was announced there was quite a bit of hype for it but a lot of it faded away being that it took two to three months for it to be available for sale and by that time the s4 was right around the corner.  Like you said though, as long as there aren't any delays of any sort, I really hope that when they officially announce the device that the street date be no more than two weeks later.

otter box don't have any replacement case left in stock and I need a new one.

The other carrier versions were the HTC One X. Sadly the cases are not interchangeable.

Just a thought... You might want to see if you can get one on Amazon or eBay.

This was happening to me all day today all over the city. My Sprint work phone held onto 1x just fine, any idea what could have been causing this?

Data worked perfectly fine, had a solid 1.5-2 mbps on 3G. It lasted a few hours and no amount of power cycling/prl/profile updating made it work. I didn't get 1x again until I got home in range of my airave.

Looks like evidence of some site work in your area -- let's be optimistic and say it was NV upgrades!  :tu:

I don't know what the problem was but its working now. The weird thing is my work provided dura xt had working 1x right next to my EVO. It was all over the city too. I do home delivery so I don't think it was site work over 25 square miles all at once.

... Google Wallet's tap and pay NFC feature hasn't been working for me lately...

 

Me neither, and it seems there are others out there, but it's hard to find information the web about it.  

 

I really stopped caring after I got the Wallet card, but then today I was on my way to work in a cab, went to pay, and realized I left my wallet at home.  Tried to pay with the phone and  it says Tap and Pay "Not available" on my settings screen and the transaction declined (it was still worth trying, especially in the panic that is trying to pay for a cab without a wallet, hah).  

 

The chip still was recognized by the credit card reader, and Wallet detected I was trying to use the chip (it made the chime sound), but still no luck with Tap and Pay.  Wallet even sent me an email to let me know it was declined because tap and pay isn't set up on the phone, yet I can't set it up with the "not available" thing.

 

I've done a factory reset too with no luck.  Is yours working again?  Anyone else having tap and pay issues with their Evo?  Edit: ... still having issues even with the last Wallet update last week?

I've only tried to use a few times and I guess I don't know how, because I can't get that far.  I was under the impression the Wallet app didn't need to be open, so I just try touching my phone to the pay station area when it comes up.  But it's never worked.  Am I supposed to be doing something else?

Honestly I'm not too sure myself because I never needed to set it up before when it worked.  I know my rejection email stated I needed to set up tap and pay on the app itself, and from all the documentation I can find it says to go to the settings page and go to the tap and pay option at the bottom.  But for me it just says not available.  Does yours give the same message?

I don't get a message at all, it just does nothing!  Like the two things are communicating.

You need to open the App, enter your pin and wait for it to show being connected to a card, then just tap.  If your data signal is low or unusable, the service is not usable or will struggle and say ask the cashier or something to that effect.

Do you have your cards setup?

Yes cards are setup, but Tap and Pay stills says not available.

    • T-Mobile has saved its 28Mhz mmWave licenses by using the point to point method to do environment monitoring inside its cabinets.

    • 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.
