Help me out if you will...
I live in Vero Beach, FL ... which is in the Orlando Market. I know that NV upgrades are coming in the near future but I have a few questions.
I have 3 towers near my house ... 2 miles, 2.5 miles and 3.5 miles away.
Inside my house I get between 0 - 2 bars of signal strength. I drop calls constantly if I move my head the wrong way. Me and my two kids all have EVO 4G phones. (Original EVO).
My download speeds tested with the speedtest.net app are between 30 - 150 kbps usually.
Now to my questions.
1. I have read that the signal strength should be stronger after NV upgrade ... do to the new radios and such ... Realistically how much stronger should I expect? If I am getting 0 - 2 bars now.
2. If my signal improves ... then I should stop dropping calls ....?
3. Testing the data rates side by side at the Sprint Store with my EVO and the 4G LTE (Galaxy s3 not there yet.)... my EVO was around 500kbps and the 4G LTE was usually over 1200kbps. I am looking to upgrade to the Galaxy S3... Do you think the new phone would perform better in my house currently? Maybe drop calls less?
Thank you in advance...
