so after some research it sounded like people like the prevail for boost, so i picked it up at best buy. it seemed fine for a while and I was enjoying android for my first time coming from blackberry.
now after a 2 months use on the phone I have a problem pretty regularly with dropped calls. it seems to happen the most in the beginning of the call. usually drops it once and at most 3 times before i can get through a 15 minute conversation.
i personally feel like its worse when its cloudy or bad weather and better when sunny. it also seems worse at my house and better when im out and about.
i will be in a call and then say you still there? and when i dont hear back and look at the phone it still shows me connected usually with decent signal. it can sometimes take 1-2 minutes and eventually the screen just returns to the home screen.
i have updated the firmware, software, PRL, profile, taken the battery out and shut off regularly and nothing seems to help.
is it the phone? or the boost service? they show good coverage on the map for me located in zip code 60543.
what am I missing? i love the plan with shrinkage and love the phone and android but my friends and family are getting upset and asking me to get rid of it.
doesnt boost work on sprint cdma? my wifes phone is android with a sprint plan and hers is fine.
thanks for any help or suggestions.
