Thanks, Mercurial. I'll do that, but I'm willing to put up with it since I know the current network is oversubscribed and there's not much they can do about it until NV gets rolled out. Really, I'm just curious about how the phone determines the signal it will use, and when to drop to 1x in the presence of a 3G signal. Is it signal strength, some calculation of throughput, etc? Could anyone point me to more detail about this? It's pretty interesting stuff, and I'm just getting into it because of this site.

Hello, Lately, I've noticed that my OG Evo running CM 7.2 is dropping into 1x in areas that were previously 3G. Going into Airplane mode (or waiting for what I assume is a tower switch will put it back into 3G. I've read some posts here that seem to indicate (at least to me) that it is the phone that determines what signal to use. What are the conditions that must be met for the signal change to be made? What would be causing my phone to drop into 1x more than it used to? To be honest, I've been meaning to learn more about this for a while, so having this issue seems like a great time to start. Thanks for all your hard work here, and I love the site.

As far as I can tell, our region is behind schedule. Could be wrong, though.

"Now data is another issue." You aren't kidding. My 3G is almost unusable for Rdio, and I haven't even bothered opening Netflix on 3G in a year. Even Google Voice fails to work sometimes. I'm definitely ready to see some improvements, or for people to switch carriers. I blame the iPhone.
