I recently stumbled across quantum entanglement and thought of an experiment. I know that the laws of physics forbid FTL communication, can anyone tell me what's wrong in my following experiment?

Information, in classical bits, consists of two states, 1 and 0. To my shallow knowledge, when an unobserved quanta is used in the double slit experiment, it produces a wave interference pattern due to its wave-particle duality. In contrast, if an observed quanta which its wave function has collapsed is used in the experiment, it produces a 1 slit pattern.

If we produce a pair of entangled particle and we are to send 1's and 0's through space, we can observe a particle on one end and collapse both of the particle's wave function. Then on the other end we conduct a double slit experiment. The experiment would produce a 1 slit pattern and the other end will know that we interfered the particle (vice versa for wave interference pattern). Thus, information is transmitted instantly. We can create a certain time frame, and in the time frame the other end will conduct double slit experiements at a constant rate. Then we can constantly observe/not observe the particles on our end to transmit 1/0 (or vice versa).

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
