TB is Stuck on 1x since 11pm tonight in NYC

Twice within 30 days...that's pretty pathetic! Well if this goes on for the same amount of time as the last outage, or dare me to say the whole weekend...I'll be putting my TB on ebay, and be returning my Droid Charge for a full refund. Yes 4G is awesome when it's working correctly, but this is just plain rediculous! An HTC Sensation or EVO 3D may be in my near future as my next device...

  • Go to the ThunderBolt's phone dialer. Enter ##778# and hit Send.
  • You'll get a pop-up labeled EPST, with the choice to "View Mode" or "Edit Mode." You want "Edit Mode."
  • You'll be asked for a password. It's 000000.
  • Now flip down to "Modem Settings," and then choose "Rev. A."
  • Change the setting from eHRPD to "Enable," hit OK, then press the Menu button on the phone and tap "Commit Modifications."
The method above DOES WORK.

Im in los Angeles and just 4G back. I called Verizon and customer service said there is nothing wrong with the networks. So i said then whats wrong with my phone. they sent me to tech suppot where I had to wait 25 mins. Tech support said that the data network is down. I followed by saying "then why does my Verizon black berry work on 3g". They said all they could do is write a ticket reporting an outage in my area. When I Hung up, my 4G was back
