The VZ cell towers around me dont have EVDO, I get 5 bars on 1x, zero to 1 bar on EVDO (when I force my phone onto EVDO), its hell for me since my phone (Moto E815) constantly sits on a unusable EVDO signal in my neighborhood, I get 0 bars, then it switches to 1x after 1-3 minutes and gets 5 bars. I live in Jamaica Estates.
