id say possibly a few random towers but overall.. if you dont already have wimax.. you wont see it. cross your fingers and hope LTE makes its way to you.

This is apparently the coverage for sprint LTE when they finish it. Pretty interesting, hopefully its soon.
My area is covered but won't be active for almost 2 yrs plenty of time foe more awesome phones

Yeah I think that's the main problem, having to wait so long for LTE.

What are the lines supposed to represent?
I think they are supposed to represent different markets or something. Definitely not states
I won't be moving to Montana any time soon.

Hopefully they add lte coverage to the Seattle area soon. I am happy with my epic 4g touch for now but am looking forward to future sprint phones and better coverage.

Is there a way to know when a given market is on schedule to have LTE?

I love this map.
What's even more encouraging is that you have to keep in mind, this is only LTE coverage at the end of Network Vision. The end of Network Vision does not signal the end of LTE expansion; remember that LTE was added into NV, and is a broader network overhaul than just adding LTE. Sprint will continue to expand afterwards, possibly including repurposing the WiMax spectrum.

I'm guessing the lines represent major highways seeing that sprint tends to follow them as far as towers go

Hell yea big ups to 4G & LTE being strong on the highways in Ohio lol

The lines are market areas.
I think those lines represent service regions.

So for some reason im experiencing slow data speeds. Slow as in the page just wont load. And when it does its because it sat there for a like 45 seconds to 1 min. Is anyone else experiencing this? Does anyone have any ideas or anything I can try to make sure it aint my phone and it's actually a network issue. TIA.

Careful with that PRL. I'm sure if you're using it, you know the risk of being kicked off sprint if abusing it? You should have about twice as much regular data as you do roaming, because that prl is ALL roaming.

Is there any way to improve my 4g reception?? When I'm at work my phone is constantly switching back and forth between 3g/4g and I'm sitting in the exact same spot in the building. This is very annoying cuz sprints 3G is worthless. Is there any i can do about this? Maybe some tweaks that could help me resolve this issue?? Or something in the build I could change?

My phones did that at first when 4G was just getting started around here. And 4G signals and usually bad in buildings because of the bands that they use.

So are the bands something you can't change or modify?

Maybe try going to the hidden menu by dialing 3845#*970#, scroll down to the bottom of that menu and click "IOT Hidden Menu", from there select "system selection", network mode, then LTE only. Hopefully that forces you to stay on LTE and won't give it the option to switch back to 3G. Obviously you're going to have to go back into this menu and hit CDMA + LTE/EvDo auto if you want 3G access again.

Nope. That's up to the carrier.
sprints lte is currently on the pcs 1900 band, verizon and att is on 700. by the end of the year sprint plans to have lte on the smr 800 band also. so coverage will be about the same as verizon
Perhaps try different radios such as the zvb one.

You can grab Phone Info and set your radio to LTE Only. If you still have data, then you are not 'trippin' and have an LTE connection.
What is your speed though? I'm getting pretty good speeds here in the D.C area.
It was only on for a bit, my speeds were no where near what you got.

Yes this. T989 will never run lte no matter what software is on the phone. We don't have the hardware for it. And the lte software package is there in general, for phones that have it.
And we don't have it.
