my evdo speed is too slow like 1x speed. am a very new user in cdma and noob in everything in cdma. just fewdays back bought htc evo 3d cdma. all the settings are preinstalled for evdo by the seller. if i connect to internet, i can see 3g icon and signal also good upto 4-5(6) bars but, speed is like 1x only. i don't why? in evdo settings "Automatic" is selected. so, i can findout which tower currently i am on thru "cellular network widget pro". most of the time am on 3g tower(rev. A) only. but i can't see any speed increase even a single time above 14-17KBps download speed. even if i change my place/town the same results without any change. anything am missing here or i've to do some tweaks or change any settings. plz, guide or help me to go in correct way for better 3g speed.

@all thanx for ur replies and experience with ur 3g speeds, onething i've to remember here, in epst settings if i select cdma only, i can see only the 1x icon. but, i get constant connection. if automatic is selected, icons switch b/n 1x and 3g. frequent disconnections in this mode sometimes i've to reconnect or switch b/n airplane mode to normal and then reconnect. i use this widget, https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=gdip.android.phonecenterpro&feature=search_result#?t=W251bGwsMSwxLDEsImdkaXAuYW5kcm9pZC5waG9uZWNlbnRlcnBybyJd it shows currently in which tower we are connected to(1x/rev. 0/rev. A/unknown). most of the time i connected in 3g tower(rev. A) by referring the percentage. i contacted the seller abt the settings related, called the CC also and gave a complaint to solve my 3g connectivity issue.

contacted seller abt this. he told me evdo is activated in your mobile u can use internet without ane issues, thats all from the seller side. ok, if i want to ask seller what i've to ask regarding this evdo.

evdo already activated, was confirmed by the seller and the CC also.

i tested with speedtest app many times, for ping, mostly kochi is selected, each and every time ping time is b/n 700+ - 990+. i didn't see a lower value than this. if i use 3g, my mobile gets hot too much. i can feel the heat near back cameras and upside. i didn't feel this much of hot even while playing hd games continuously. is it normal for every htc evo 3d or mine is faulty. plz, give some suggestions to overcome from these issues.
