Hello TB folks.
I ordered a TB on one of my lines to lock it into unlimited data, and im having some issues that I hope to resolve before the 14 day return is over or ill have to swap to a different device. I have scoured the net and many different forums and read a ton of different interpretations and "fixes" for these issues, and would like some solid help so please bear with me.
Yes I have applied the 7/8 update, running stock TB.
1. Signal. for some reason the signal on this phone seems to be crap. One minute its in 4G, next down to 3G, sometimes even 1X. The real kicker is that the data is inconsistant and the 4G icon will disappear and reappear multiple times, and ill have to refresh whatever im doing to get it to load fully.
Any incite on this? Yes I am located in a 4G area. (Cleveland, OH)
2. Battery. I know its still new and not conditioned fully, that the 4G is so fast it literally burns the battery cells
, etc. But damn, I can sit there on the home screen and watch the HTC Battery widget drop 1-2 percent just sitting there. I have removed all the background updates except google, dropped brightness to 25% or under, 30 second screen timeout, and tried running just CDMA network and it still seems to suck battery quickly.
That seems to be the 2 major issues im having. All help is greatly appreciated!
Thanks!
