This is an issue with the Elite in certain areas. Not sure if it's the phones or Sprints network.

File an FCC complaint against virgin mobile. Use fcc.gov. Push them to replace the device. Either it is defective from manufacturer or it just isnt compatible as it should be with the sprint/virgin network. This device has a long history of being stuck on 1x

I'm one of those lucky ones that isn't have any issues with 3G, regardless of signal strength (almost zero in my house, high outside). However, I do agree, too, with the FCC complaint filing suggestion.
