Its lit up pretty nice around 163rd st area with 4g going down 95 in the urban areas... but what part of Miami are you concerned with...

Like the downtown and little havana area

4g and 3g Super Slow... Charlotte NC

I'm so tired of sprint.. I live in Uptown Charlotte NC and on 4g getting 1.90mbps dwl. and 0.20 uploading. and OMG!!! 3g is only 0.32 dwl. and 0.18 up. It's ridiculous anybody have a solution or any input in this major situation?

It's a common problem and there are many threads on this subject. Sprint is supposedly upgrading their network and this should improve within the next few months depending on where you live and what areas get upgraded first. My 3G speeds suck big time, and my 4G speeds vary depending in which tower I connect to. At my mom's house, 4G is great. In my house, 4G is horrible. At work, 4G is in between the two.
Thanks for letting me know that.. But ill give them until next year to upgrade their towers.

I live in Winston Salem and my experience is the opposite of yours. 4G is blazing fast and my 3G is fast, too. I have noticed that in Orlando, my hometown, both are faster than here, but I attribute that to the not so hilly terrain. The only gripe I have with Sprint is its voice feature. Inside my home, 3G and 4G are good, but I have to switch to roaming only, using the Roam Control app to talk.

That's really interesting i mean the fact that you have it blazing fast in Winston Salem but they can't get it right here lol.
Have you tried the 3g speed fix? I'm in charlotte, I get better speeds than that, but not great. I've been on CM7 variants for a long time now, but I used to get better with Sense ROMs. I'm going to switch to Mik 4.6 and give that a shot for a bit. I usually get anywhere from 500kbps - 1.8mbps, although the last time I got higher than 1mbps was a while ago. I don't mess with 4g since I'm never in coverage other than in the car to and from work.

I live in Waxhaw, and I just got 1.8mbps down. This **** drives me crazy, speeds are up and down all the time. I'll go weeks without getting over 300k and then randomly get faster, but it always goes back.
I'm still on Destroyer and these are some of the fastest dl speeds I've gotten on AOSP (3g) in a looooooong time, so I think I'm going to stick with it for a while and see what happens.

[Q] Horrible service in the I. Ę.

Anybody else living in the inland Empire experiencing horrible sprint service? I've looked at there towers and noticed, they don't have much here. Sometimes 3g data speed is so slow it takes ages just to load Google home page :/ any input would be helpful. I don't know if it's my modem affecting the data speeds or if it's the service.
Where are you? By inland empire, do you mean the great plains of the America (Empire)?
Can you do a speedtest and show what you're getting?

Pretty sure it's in California
Yes inland Empire in California. Any of you experiencing bad service? I go to school in Ontario and I get phenomenal 4G speeds. But I'm at school so I'm not always able to do what I want on my phone. After School I go home in Moreno Valley, and the service there is just horrible.. Almost to the point where I want to cancel my 2 year agreement. And I have been a loyal sprint customer for 8 years.
I live in the LA area and i get good speeds everywhere except in my house i dont get 4g and 3g is like dial up for me. Check out my speedtest below. I have wifi in my house so ehh no biggy.
The phone is so awesome
Im willing to wait for LTE to start spreading in LA i still got along time before i can upgrade so in the mean time i can deal wth it sprint unlimited is why im here and no longer with Tmobile.
travel to Long Beach frequently, and my 3g is actually fairly decent. around 300-600 kbps? thats 2x faster than what im getting in phoenix... i hope its not getting bad as part of Network Vision, heading that way in 2 weeks...
I live in the I.E. and yes sprint has horrible coverage in alot of places. That's the reason I got a airwave free for my home,cuz I get almost no service otherwise. If you look at the tower upgrade thing it says my area is gonna get a few enhancements over the next 6 months. So you should check your area and see if moval or the cities/places you frequent have planned upgrades before you cancel

Alright I will. Airwave? You got an Airwave free for your home? Please explain this.... I'm a little confused, what is that? and 6 months of superrrrrr slow service is a lifetime.. I need my E4GT. :/
I don't think and Airrave will help with data issues.
Do you have good voice reception?

Yes I get good voice reception, do you mind filling me in on what that is? I usually have data off when I go home. Cause there's no point at all having it on if it takes 5mins to load just the Google home page. When I'm in Ontario I have phenomenal 3g and 4G speeds. But once I hit Moval it just takes a dump. It's very very aggravating..
I live in corona and get ok speed.. Im usually hooked up to wifi .. When im not i get ok speed..

i live in the IE and 3g service is alright not as fast as i wish but its not that bad well atleast for me and their is no 4g here but once i step into ontario area or go more west im able to get 4g which the speed is good.
its not dial up so you should try updating your prl, modem

I live in the Inland Empire (Hemet) I am cancelling my Sprint Service because of the ungodly Data speeds. frequently 200kbps or less. I'm moving over to T-Mobile. I called Sprint the other day to ask what my ETF fee would be. The representative started arguing with me about T-mobiles fake 4G and how its not a real solution. I came back with two things first "What 4g? I dont have any 4g where I live. I don't even have 3g. The speeds I am getting are Edge speeds" and then Secondly "T-Mobiles fake 4g is real and tangible now. Its also faster then any 4g speeds I have ever clocked on sprint in Brea, Long Beach, Sacramento, Chicago and Manhattan. The question is, "Fake 4g Now or Real 4g Never?"
My friend has a Comet (Google it, its a pathetic entry level android phone) he is able to get consistent 2.5Mbps down anywhere in my town. Also a Coworker has the Galaxy S2 on T-Mobile. Clocking around 14Mbps on T-Mobiles fake 4g network. I never saw more then 7 on Sprints 4G, Ever.
The Airave is a joke. You essentially turn your internet into a cell tower. think about this.... you pay sprint for service that you provide yourself by using the internet that YOU pay for...... hmmm seems like a cop out for them to offer that as a fix all for their poor towers.
I use to love Sprint back in the days of the Hero. When I could easily get 1.2 Mbps down anywhere I went. I dont know if they are just overloaded in the area, or the towers are in need of some TLC but I just cant take it anymore. GSM here I come.

Ya I know what you mean. I have friends here in Moval and they have Verizon and T mobile and they get great service. Haven't asked them on the 4G service though. I did some research on the towers and noticed there aren't many sprint towers here.. They're all towards the west... :/ LA being the best spot for 4G... Wish I lived there.

I just remembered that.. I went flash crazy this month.. And forgot to update my PRL. I've always read that it's good to do that after flashing a rom. And about the modem.. I'm on El29. So far that I know it's the latest and "greatest" modem SO far.. Sorry for the noob question.... But what EXACTLY is PRL. And why should we update it after flashing a rom?

Please use this thread for all LTE news. Report when and where LTE was found, how fast, new maps, new predictions, problems, spotty service, or whatever. Post anything to do with LTE here and do not make new threads.

Houston... damn fast where you can find it. My personal best so far is 31535kb/s down 12002kbps up with 49ms ping off of Almeda and 610 near the medical center. I am impressed so far, they just need it on more towers. Seems like they only have 1 in every 3 upgraded max.
s4gru is a great place for updates on LTE, if you have sprint and are on XDA I would be surprised if you are not also registered there.
*edit* just noticed all the LTE threads in general, I was wondering why a sticky for LTE! Now I see... people must be excited.
When I get lte, I feel that I'll be at the top of the speeds chart again. I already have maxed 3g speeds at my house.
That sucks. our Dallas LTE thread was closed and now were stuck in a General. Personally i would prefer to have a thread with each city so i can focus on my issues and location not a general every LTE discussion..
Hope the Moderator who closed our Dallas LTE thread is reading and will open ours back up.

I am agnostic on the issue at XDA. On the flip side, the proliferation of threads was getting very confusing, even though many users shared common issues such as the need to update to LG8.
If you want to explore LTE in detail, including lots of threads and LTE network expertise, I suggest that you try the S4GRU.com site and consider becoming a sponsor to gain access to the detailed area-specific maps. Sprint's LTE rollout is the primary focus of that site, and general forums like this one will never match its content.
Im a member of their site, not a sponsor though. I was looking for an open forum to discuss what we had been discussing in the closed Dallas LTE forum.
So to all those who were in that forum lets do like boomerbubba suggest and go to the other place to continue our discussion.
This is in La Porte (outside of Houston) at East Pasadena and Underwood.

No signal in Richmond , TX .
However, signal seems very strong withing the 610 loop (UH-main campus, Buffalo Speedway&610)
Near boston. I was in Nashua Nh And 4g kicked in (weird). I didnt get to run speed test I just bought the s3 but the internet was flying. I will test when Im there again.
I was getting some pretty good speeds today in Lowell, MA... 25 miles outside of Boston. I'll have to try Nashua as I live in the town over, but it's a no go at my place

makes me sad that baltimore was the first Wimax City (or at least one of them) yet we havent seen nor heard a word about LTE. WIsh they would let us roam with LTE because verizon's LTE in baltimore/washington is beast.
I take that back, apparently we are getting in in September... Should be good then. Ill update as it comes in.
Hopefully the DC area will be lit up soon. Getting the phone hopefully by the end of the month and 4g should be popping up
I'm in DC also... I've been waiting since day one.. I can say that all the DMV tower are ready for LTE. They did a test run last week in NW. Every phone is switch to 3g only with you first get it. I switch n saw a one bar signal. I walked to the sprint truck n ask she how was it going with the test run? She said Great. Fixing the Wimax tower. I told her really, it looks like the LTE is on and running. It was on for 45min. It like I was on my WiFi. Sprint don't Fail me like wimax.
Well South Carolina has yet to taste the sweet nectar of WiMax and LTE. Sprint has never attempted to roll out some WiMax here and I'm not even looking forward to seeing LTE ever come here either.
So there is no LTE in the DC/MD area? I thought there was....dang. Ill be up there this weekend on vacation and was hoping to test it out

[Q] 4G LTE

Sorry for creating a thread about this, but im just really confused(as always) lol.
Anyways, when connected to LTE, does it actually show 4G LTE or just 4G icon? I live here in Chicago, and in my place there's no luck in 4G.
But while going to work, O'hare Airport, it shows 4G. Is that a 4G(Wimax) or the LTE?

Holy crap - where in Atlanta did you get those speeds? I'm in Atlanta as well, and I'm slightly puzzled by the 4G indicator. Everytime I've seen it on the phone, there's been 0 bars. I know the bars aren't exactly indicative of signal strength, and I've gotten some pretty fast speeds with "0 bars" but I was wondering if anyone else here has figured out why this is? Are the bars completely unrelated to 4G signal strength? And if so, why the hell don't we have an indicator of 4G signal strength?

Believe it or not I get 24 or more in Decatur. But your right I don't have signal bars when on 4G, just probably a software glitch. You can check how strong your signal is settings, network then look at signal strength. Generally the high 80s indicates the best signal
My goodness those are some fast speed. In NYC here with no LTE .

[Q] T-Mobile Coverage in New Jersey

I'm in NJ and I made the switch recently. Despite everyone telling me I'd get terrible coverage, I've actually found it better than I had with Verizon. Don't get me wrong -- Verizon's LTE completely blows away HSPA and + in terms of speed, but so far I've gotten far more consistent 4G coverage than I had with LTE.
That being said, I'm located in Middlesex. So I can't say how good T-Mobile is down in Monmouth. Up here though it's excellent. I go from Scotch Plains --> Newark/Parsippany areas for work and I get excellent 4G coverage everywhere I go.

Can't test from in your house. Do you think T-Mobile goes inside your house and tests the connection? I too have "good" service, inside i cannot get HSPA outside i get 1~3 bars. So the map is accurate. Granted, not perfect.

I said at my house not inside my house. T-Mobile admitted to me their service map isn't 100% accurate

Im in northern passaic county and its spotty but the wifi calling makes up for it. I get good service in oakland though were I work. I had verizon before and had great reception but I pay a lot less now so im ok with it. Its not horrible.

Newark NJ get 10mb down, work in Fairfield NJ get 5/6mb down... pretty reliable. sometimes spotty at work(knew this from their coverage map, which to me it's its extremely accurate) but mostly reliable.

I live in Monmouth County, and T-Mobile sucks here. Had it for a long time, tried to get them to come out and see why the service sucked so much, and all they gave me was bs. So finally I made the switch to Verizon and couldn't be happier.
Lol not sure what answers you were expecting with that kind of question, but I understand ur concern.
Hudson/bergen County here. Service is good 2ishMB down 300ish KB up. Average/high. To be honest, with what I pay, its MORE than enough. $150 unlimited everything for 3 people. Verizon can suck a bag of ..........
