I have tmo rooted stock rom 1.43 and have the worst range from Bluetooth...i see I'm not the only one, because there are many reports on tmo site...my questions are who here has this problem, what have you done to fix it, and does the custom roms have this problem?

There are quite a few threads on this site about it.
Mine is stock and I get up to about 20' and seems to start losing signal. I am fine with that though. Phone is always close by me anyway.....

I would suggest buying a GSM Evo 3D and getting a GSM carrier like T-Mobile, AT&T, or Simple Mobile. Good thing all of the main networks here in Russia are GSM, I don't like the CDMA system.

It depends on the agent you get; whenever I do any shananigans I usually call the spanish line since they're based in Mexico, have full power over the acct, and are less likely to question your shiz.
And, yeah, the ESN will be clean if you do such a procedure.

On pretty much all smartphones wifi calling here in Asia works great. Blocked in the US now like in communist countries??
Coming from a Nexus 4 user, so not biased in anyway:
Pros-
By far the best phone out right now (far above the GS4)
No lag whatsoever
Supports all frequency bands (2G,3G,4G, LTE on all GSM carriers)
Solid feel
Amazing screen
Sense is beautiful (opinion)
Wi-Fi Calling ( I get bad service in my house so I miss this feature)
Cons-
Although the materials are good, build quality on some devices has been sub par
Not subsidized on T-mobile, makes me very nervous to attempt to purchase or trade for one due to the fact that it was most likely purchased on EIP.
Well after going through 4 GNex replacements VZW has decided to send me a HTC DNA to replace it, and it will be here monday.
I am curious as to the two different DNA Development Threads... ?
Can someone explain?
Also as I have been reading threads (still reading now) that the current RUU is unrootable?
Is this still true? ( I may have already got to "that thread" by the time I get an answer)
Just trying to get some info before I delve into it.

Are you referring to the DNA Android Development and DNA Original Android development boards? The first one (loosely speaking) is more for kangs, and roms that are based off of stock, as well as roms that are based off of other people's work (i.e. not fully original work). The original development board is geared towards roms built from source (i.e. AOSP roms), as well as development that introduce original features.

This is false. I recommend using Moonshine to root and unlock your device on the latest update.

Agreed.
I intentionally moved from the gnex to the DNA, as I had a coupon to get it for free and I felt the deal couldn't be beat.
After a slow start (as s-off wasn't available yet) when I first got it, I am now absolutely thrilled with it and couldn't be happier.
Performance is so much better than the Gnex, it's ridiculous.

4G is a-ok. I had a Gnex once upon a blue moon and the differences are staggering. I found the screen to be dark and brooding no matter how high the brightness was set. On the DNA, even at low brightness the colors seem to pop. You'll be more than happy.

Have you tried to ruu it? Maybe that will help. Also try after ruu going into stock recovery and factory reset from there. It fixed my radio when I was stuck on roaming... Maybe it will help you. Also have you tried reseating the sim card? Those have been known to be very touchy on our phones

EDIT: so you did or did not ruu it?
Can anyone tell me how to keep this phone connected to lte? We just got lte where I live and I use open signal app and it showed lte so I drove right up to the tower. Within 250 feet. My friend with HTC one was connected with no problems. But my phone wouldn't connect. He was getting download speeds of 13-18 mbps. I know I read something on here about an app that helps and also something about##72786# or something like that to change some settings. Thanks

It's a known problem for the elte's, some of them have problems acquiring and maintaining an lte signal, while others don't. Mine does the same thing sometimes.
I have read some people have problems getting an lte signal on some non sense based Roms, not saying that's the problem in this particular situation, but just an fyi sort of thing...
Also, are you s-off? If yes, have you updated to the latest radios? It seems to have helped my phone pick up lte a lil more often...

I downgraded from ICS to GB using a guide on phandroid. I believe it may have something to do with the way I flashed it, or the network not recognizing me, but I am unsure. I'm open to suggestions!
If your downgrade method didn't involve flashing the GB radios than there would be your problem. It wouldn't hurt to flash the latest GB radios just for kicks.

Cool! Well thanks anyway. I'm trying to find a way to program it to my service. Just to get the settings right, and see what happens after that. For all I know, I have the settings right, and it just won't work.
Best bet would be to pick up a sprint phone that's not locked down via ESN (correct term?). Since Boost is basically Sprint's pay as you go service.
