I go to school in downtown Denver, which as of yet is still not officially a 4G city. I've been able to connect to 4G for a while now, but recently I've had no luck in connecting to 4G. I don't know if i broke my 4G, and I haven't tried all of the broken 4G fixes available, but wanted to know if anyone else is having this problem, or if its just me. Thanks

Both me and my wife have EVO 4G, since sprint towers are going live in NY I started using it.
What we noticed, on my wifes phone it never finds any 4g signals while I have it all over the city. We actually have sprint tower on top of our building that gives me maximum strength signal while at home.
When we got phones I recall she was actually able to find 4g singnal here and there but it was way to sporadic to keep it on.
Both phones are rooted and running newest Wimax.
I found on forums possible issue with with bad MAC but I confirmed that is not the case.
Is there anything I can test/try at all or should I seek replacement from sprint?
I guess RUU and sprint store here I go
ok, So i have been running CM6 and was in downtown Cleveland and decided to NAND restore to a Sense rom to see if 4G was up. I turned on 4G and it said 4G network detected. The phone did a cycle of scanning....obtaining IP address....connecting....scanning....over and over. I was afraid that I might have a broken Wixmax...ran emulator, the MAC ID is correct, have the latest Wimax radio installed, and the wimax_mtd command through terminal emulator checked fine with no errors.
Question is....since Cleveland is not a official 4G city is it possible they are just testing the towers / signal and thats why the phone won't connect to 4G, of do you think there is a problem with my 4G?
I know that 4G is up and running the the North Olmsted. The strongest signal seems to be around Great Northern Mall. If you can get out there, you can test to see if there's a problem with your 4G radio
Yeah I got it to work. Its still intermittent around as far as actually connecting.

Anybody in Northern Colorado, or anywhere in Colorado, had success in getting some 4G coverage?
I just flashed to Baked Snack from cm6 to create a backup I can use while I'm in Vegas this weekend so I could test out 4G finally and was able to connect to 4G from my basement!
Ran some speed tests and performs better than the 3G here. I actually normally get 3G speeds in the 2000's at UNC which has a Sprint tower on one of the residence halls. At my house it's rather slow, the 826 download is 3G, the rest are 4G except the wifi.
Anybody have any luck in this area?
I am in fort Collins and have not managed to get 4G anywhere around here or in loveland. I am not really checking very often to tell you the truth. I hear there are areas in denver. Did you get 4g somewhere in northern colorado?
I've gotten pretty damn nice results with only 2 bars of 4G here in Orlando, Fl
Yes i live in Greeley, about 3 miles west of UNC and that's where I got those results from.
Ive never even bothered to turn it on before either until recently just to make sure the radio would work.
I'll keep it on during the day and let.you know how things are working.

I guess I am just going to have to start randomly testing around here. I did not think it was in this area so I have not bothered even trying that much.
Try out Map Viewer on the market (Sensorly), you can see where other users are getting Wimax 4g in your area, you can also let it track where you're getting 4g. Also tracks GSM, CDMA, and wireless connections.
Some 4g in the downtown Denver area along I-25, US 6, up and down Alameda, Sheridan and Wadsworth.
Short Sprint outage in Greeley today = 4g coverage around 36 and 47th (the only area I have been in so far speeds as tested with Speedtest.net app = 1.5 down 800 up.
I've got 4G at home now. it has been off and on, but I've got it at home and at my office.
Denver Tech Center definitely gets it...haven't tried any other places.
It seems as if data for sprint in the Houston area is out, 3G at least. I am just wondering if it is just me, like the title says, or if others in the area are experiencing the same outages? It started a little while after lunch, maybe earlier though, I was on WiFi at the house.
thanks
edit...doing the verison PRL hack restored my data!
3G out or very slow in central tx (Austin). I've been using 4G or Wifi.
Slow 3g in Houston, 4G connects but data does squat.
Denver: 3G data is wonky
Have the same thing going on up here in Denver. I have an EVO and my wife has an EVO Shift. Both are experiencing the same problems. Started sometime around 10/10:30ish MDT.
I have data here in the woodlands.

Yep it's down here in Austin, Both my friend and I can't get on 3g or 4g on EVO(rooted) and Epic. I just rooted my phone too, I thought I messed something up haha.
crappy data in houston today.
*bleh*
Dayton, Texas here. About 20 miles east of Houston on F.M. 1960
I thought I had messed something up myself, I was on virus kingdom and data was working. Went back to my deck rom nandroid and data was borked. I wiped-flashed all sorts of stuff, updating prl's and profile's, lol. Then I did the verizon hack and data returned My wife just got home and hers is messed up as well, LG Optimus S.
Maybe that new network vision is being turned on, Yeah Right!
data is okay in san antonio, got on 4g earlier for a bit...some were saying all of tx but its patchy
Forgot to mention, we have an Airave device at the house and 3G works perfectly. However, the moment I step outside and walk down the street so I'm out of range of the Airave, 3G doesn't work. (South-western Denver area)
From Google'in around I see its out in Florida, Louisiana, Texas, perhaps more!
