Can I disable or Do I need to disable 4g Radio? (No 4G coverage available here)
Ok just got my Evo and going through all the settings, I noticed the 4G setting constantly says "Turning On"... does that mean it's spending battery life trying to find a signal?
If so, how do I disable the 4g antenna completely? (4G coverage is not available where I live). Everything is 'grey' and pressing the icon in the widget, nor settings seems to have any effect.
Sounds dirty ...... disable it if you have no 4G. It's searching and can't find anything.
*sigh* maybe I need to rephrase my question again.
HOW do you disable it? As I stated in the original post, pressing the line in the settings window does nothing, it's gray and non-responsive. That's the entire point of this thread.
It appears to be searching, yes.. that's why I asked in the first place... but I cannot figure out how to disable it.

It's in the same place that bluetooth & wifi settings are. Just go into settings, it's very obvious. The phone isn't on me right now.

I had this issue when I first got the phone this morning. It appears to have some lag turning on and off. I actually think I hit the buttons so many times that it got "stuck" Had to restart the phone to make it respond to touch again.

And we have a winner!!!! I removed the battery and reinserted (since I had to swap out SD cards anyway) and when it came back the button was showing "Turn 4g on" which indicates it's OFF now whew...
So for anyone else who's 4G appears stuck in 'search' mode... Companyman's solution should work.. Thanks again!
Just facing this issue now.
I turned off and on the phone. Took the batter out and put it back.
Still, when i turn on the phone, my 4G setting states "Turning on..." but never turns on!
I'm sure a hard reset will fix this, but wanted to see if there was another option.
When Sprint announced their first ever 4G handset at CTIA in March 2010, they dropped a bombshell on the mobile world. The HTC Evo 4G is a device that introduces a lot of firsts when compared to other North American handsets. This is the first Andr... Read More
