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!
*I posted this over on Androidcentral to get more input.. I wanted to see a broad idea of the people getting good/bag 4g.
(Don't know if this falls in question or general discussion, seeing as it is discussing)
Hello everyone. Anyone in the Miami area or near Miami, Florida, getting good or bad 4G.?
Well on my 2nd GNexus here with bad 4g (no 4g or flakey 4g) Tried 4.0.2 -> 4.0.4. radios.
I get 1 bar for 5 minutes and boom it's gone till I reboot or sim card pull, tried a new sim card as well.
Just seeing what kind of 4g people are getting in my area.
Thanks.
yea it really sucks down here. theirs only a few places were ive gotten full 4G bars
Welcome to the club.
It is pathetic in East Phoenix-Metro, AZ. As I type this, my nexus has NO data whatsoever and it has been going in and out frequently. Today was quite embarrassing as well, for when I was in school, I needed to pull up a Google Doc on my phone, BUT what was my connection? GREY BAR NO DATA! Verizon, I pay you in excess of $100 dollars a month and this is what I get? What was that again, Most reliable 3G and 4G networks?????
Phoenix was one of the first cities in the US to get LTE on Verizon, and now I am wondering why the first has to be the last in reliability.
I've been using my GSM Nexus in Miami for over two weeks and everything's been fine so far. T-Mobile doesn't have great signal strength indoors, but I've had that issue with every phone I've had with them. I'm about to switch to StraightTalk using AT&T's network so I'll let you know how it goes, but no problems to speak of so far!

similar issues in Chicago area....no data, greyed out 4g, etc. i also have mifi and that had issues connecting as well
Verizon....the new ATT.

No 4G in NYC this morning. Besides not having data, service been terrible here in the city since I switch from at&t last week , I usually get 40mbs here in my house on At&t, I get 5mbs on Verizon LTE sucks plus I have not seen full bars on the phone yet. Is it the phone or just how the service is? I still got a week until my 14 days return period. What to do

I used my LTE Toggle to turn 4g off and I picked up a 3g signal after about 30 seconds. 3g now holding fine.
No 4G in Pittsburgh, PA. Oh Verizon, you silly people and your "improving the network".
I can't even get 3g.
San diego. 4g is out. Intermittent 3g

Experiencing some issues downloading those expense reports via your Verizon LTE device this morning? You're not alone. We've received reports of data outages in Indianapolis, Milwaukee, Phoenix, Pennsylvania and Ohio. We've reached out to VZW to find out what the issue is, and as soon as and we know more we'll post it right here. For now, let us know if your LTE is letting you down in the comments below.
Update: Via Twitter, Verizon states "VZW is investigating customer issues in connecting to the 4GLTE data network. 3G data, voice and text services are operating reliably." However, we're hearing reports that 3G is down for customers as well in some areas.

It's a mix of both. For example, I come from a Droid Razr Maxx and that thing had amazing signal and held 4G just fine. But sometimes Verizon could be derpy, atleast not for me though.
So after reading all these replies (thanks guys) seems like its a widespread problem.
edit: Oh what a coincidence, my 4G problems lined up with this outage, but no guys my issues of no 4g, are seperate outage or not sadly
Hey guys,
So i'm new to owning Samsung galaxy phones. I do really like my phone alot, the only downfall so far with is my signal us HORRIBLE! I had the evo and evo 3d and my signal wasnt to bad. The I bought the iPhone and had good signal but since i'm a sprint customer I had extremely slow internet. Found out how to make my iPhone run on Verizon signal and was fast. Well I got bored with it and got this. (sorry for long story, at work and bored). So anyways is there a way to help my signal. All my phones besides this one had full signal at my house this phone only gets about 4 bars and it seems like my wifi reciever is weak to, hardly picks up my wifi at home. Id really appreciate the help,
Thanks

Hmmm....that's interesting. Other than slow 3G and spotty 4G service in my area, I've never had signal problems and definitely no problems picking up WIFI at home. In fact, I normally connect to my WIFI before I even pull into the driveway at home.
In regards to phone signal, have you tried updating your PRL in settings?
I just got it on Friday and the prl updated its self, haven't tried recently. Is there ways to reprogram the radio. I've had both my evos rooted, I understood flashing roms, but never understood when it said something about radios.

try to flash a newer modem with ODIN! but my best is with FE22 but that will depends on what area you are in
hey guys i was wondering if any of u guys have 4g because when i got my phone i asked about the 4g and they said satelite wont be setup till late october or november and when i go to school and i enter my class on the 3rd floor i get 4g which is fastttttt but then when i leave its 3g or no bars does anyone have an idea when its coming or something?
You must get it on the fourth floor because you are closer to the satellite. As they upgrade the satillites you will notice it working on the 3rd floor then second, then everywhere.
Maybe telling us what city you are in to begin with would be appropriate?

As Sprint continues their Network Vision deployment, 4G signal will become better and better. However, even with max signal outside of a building, you may still only get 3G inside (depending on the building). Since Sprint's 4G operates on the 1900 band, it doesn't have as much in-building penetration as Verizon/AT&T which operate at lower frequencies. Additionally, 4G simply cannot reach as far as 3G...and 3G cannot reach as far as 1X. This is just how the technology works, unfortunately.
Sprint's LA Metro area is scheduled to have all of their Network Vision (4G) tower upgrades done by January 2013. LA North was supposed to start in Jan. 2013, but it looks like they are starting early as of this month. Overall, Network Vision should be done by end of 2013.
In Chicagoland, 4G LTE has started appearing all over, even with official coverage in some areas. My phone usually jumps between 3G and 4G multiple times a day, depending on how much traveling I am doing.
As always, check out coverage.sprint.com for the offical 4G LTE coverage maps in your area.
Also is anyone else having trouble keeping an internet connection? and 3g or 4g? IT BLOWS>>.. sometimes i just have bars with no 3g/4g and can't get on internet.. then i poweroff turn back on and it'll have 4g for a min.. switch to 3g and then eventually no internet at all.. and im in Dallas TX so i know ther's plenty of towers...
sprint galaxy s3
Is it your upload, your download, or both?
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
it's both. i have no internet connection.. i just have bars sometimes full bars with no 3g/4g. and i can get txts and calls while i have the bars..
if i power off and power on.. then it will work again.. and if im in 4g coverage it starts off saying 4g.. that doesnt' last long, then it'll say 3g, then go down to 1x, then go down to just bars.. i'm beginning to wonder if it's my refurbished phone i got from the insurance company..i didn't have my new one for one day and bricked it so i didn't get a chance to see if it was the phone or not..
just recently, i have been sitting in the same spot, trying to find roms and stuf, and i switched from cyanogen to slimbean and it said 3g once.. but i can't imagine it having anything to do with the roms..
thanks for any help you may have.
I would recommend flashing one of the more stable ROMs in the android development section. If that doesn't work flash a sprint PRL.
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
what do you consider to be stable roms?
i enjoyed cyanogenmod10 and am using the slim bean now. it's ok
not sure how to flash sprint prl...
i searched and didn't find much..
offer any assistance on that?
Im in Dallas as well. Its not your phone. its the network. Right around the middle of December i noticed it starting to get worse.
Its actually back to pre network vision speeds. 4G at my office is less then a meg down. Month or two ago i was getting 4-10 megs down on LTE.
Ive also noticed my 3G speeds are slower then normal as well. Sprint said Dallas has been undergoing some network testing issues and hoped to have it resolved by the 16th of this month. So 5 more days.. But i tend to not believe what they say. TO much bad info from them too often.
FYI, happens on my EVO LTE and GS3..
