3G down on Droid???

If your 3G isn't running, here's the solution: dial *228 and select option 1. It turns out that re-programming your phone brings the 3G back, it did for me at least. Hope this helps!
 
Im now getting intermittent service. It'll come on for a few minutes and then go out again

I tried this an hour and a half ago, it failed. Tried again just now, successful - but still no 3G. :(
 
Seems Houston is ok as well, but i will say that even though i "have" 3G (icon), it's definitely been throttled down or something as part of fix/troubleshooting because my measured speed (several tests, several servers in the region) is quite low compared to usual:

Down: 472 kbps
Up: 696 kbps

What the hell :(. Have you tried taking the battery out while the phone's on, resetting it, dialing *228 option 1, and having the phone reset after that?
 
3G is working good here in northeast/north central Massachusetts, I have been in Greenfield, Erving, Orange, Athol, Gardner, Leominster (commuting to work haha) and I had 3G the whole way.

Did you read the thread? It's not a phone issue...it's a network issue affecting much of the country.
