Pre keeps Losing / Dropping internet EVDO

ospreyguy · 08/31/2009, 07:17 AM

I keep losing my connection to the internet on the phone. I am then forced to reset to get it back. It's really annoying because I won't know it's happening and none of my emails get pushed through.

I have My Tether but I don't think that is the problem. I am just wondering if anyone else is having these issues.

Maybe your phone needs to be provisioned again for data? Dunno, call Sprint.

To make sure it's not My Tether you can always restore and see.

Same keeps happening to me! Sad to see there's no suggested fixes on this thread. Oh well only a few more months and I can throw away my Pre. Great OS, but with hardly any apps it just doesn't compare to Android these days.

Please open the phone app, go to preferences where you will find 2 options to update... Select "Update PRL" and when that is done select "Update Network Settings". This may clear up your issues.
