[Q] Fastest Speedtest

What's the fastest speedtest? I've seen 9 on YouTube, has anybody got any faster?

My Dl speeds have been quite slow, but for some crazy reason the other night I was DL at 600kb UL at 6mb
i know.
i didn't typo that. i was uploading 10 times faster than i was downloading, and i was uploading faster than my home internet connection will go.

I've hit 7.2 download a week ago. I normally average between 4.5-6.

Are you talking on the cell network or any speedtest? I can get 12mbit download and 5mbit on wifi but cell network i get nothing until hsdpa+ comes to chicago

I've gone up to 4.5 Mbps. Haven't done many speed tests.

Let me preface this with I work at a Radioshack.
When we first got the G2's in, before the phone actually launched, I tested one out just to see what kind of speeds it could get. My store is in a 5 bar HDPA+ area. The first test out of the box I got 8mpbs, and the second I got 10.5mbps, every one after that was ~10. After the phone launched and a few weeks went buy I got mine and iv been getting between 4-7mbps in the exact same spot.
So the phone is capable of it, but now that tmobiles network is getting more hammered by HSPA+ phones its slowing down I think.

The highest I received was 5.8 and that was in Las Vegas....

fastest i ever got was 4.85 mb/s after the ota. but it wasnt on hspa+ just hspa 7.2.. still just "3G"...

Taken in Plano, TX. Don't really like the fact that my wife's Vibrant will go to the server in Dallas and my old MyTouch always went to the one in Dallas, but my G2 will not find it for anything.

I've gotten around 7 or 8 as my highest in Western New York. Pretty decent speeds.

i can't figure this one out.
Normal:

I would like to post my Speedtest result but cannot figure out how to paste it in a message. I feel like an idiot, help?

I tested out in aurora once, said I was >5 miles from the server and I got a whoppin 8.6 mbit down. It was about the fastest I've ever tested but I average around 3-5mbit anywhere else.

[Reference] 4G speeds

I've always been curious how much 4G speeds vary from place to place. I travel a lot for work, but lets face it, Sprint coverage maps are pretty much a best case scenario or an Opium induced fantasy at best. Post your 4G speeds with a screen shot, (pics or it didn't happen), please no flaming. If you don't have 4G in your area, please don't troll! Hopefully Sprint will get you covered when lte rolls out.
Real simple, get speedtest.net. Check your 4g speeds.
Take at least 3 tests to show average.
Post results.

4g? What's that?
Ha, ain't got 4g here.

Speeds vary. If I take them in the morning i get 9mbps and at night. In the afternoon 4g is kinda bad

+1 Seams as though network traffic is definitely lower at night. Varies by tower as well. Just a few miles up the road in Kansas City, I can get upwards of 10M with a weaker signal then I have at home.

never really use 4g unless i need to tether really badly. I usually stick to non 4g roms

Sprint LTE alive in San Francisco, CA

I forgot to post here that I've seen some 4g in Santa Clara as well....

Speed test I pulled off of Lawrence Expwy in Santa Clara

.....based on that speed test, Sprint's LTE will be just as useless as their CDMA and WIMAX. That's abysmal for LTE, let alone launch day before anyone is even using it yet...

Must have been testing. Not real performance test. Check my signature for a better idea of speeds. I consistently hit mid 20's.

Backbone probably hasn't been upgraded yet.

Probably testing

I used to pull 12mbps on wimax. Don't understand y everybody hated it???

I wonder if they are dploying in cupertino first to show apple that thheir lte netwrok isnt a myth. Also for testing the next iphones lte. Because according to s4gru, los gatos and cupertino are part of the san jose market, not san francisco's market.

Because obviously not everyone was pulling 12 on wimax.

Switching from 3G to 4G (airplane mode toggle)

I've been using a Sprint Galaxy Note 2 in Chicago since Thursday.
Last night I was in an area where I thought there should be 4G but was only getting 3G. I did an airplane mode toggle and when it came back on I connected to 4G. There have been other times that I was on 3G and did switch to 4G automatically but there have been a lot of times that I seem stuck on 3G for awhile.
Is this likely b/c I'm still getting a weak 4G signal and as it gets stronger the automatic switchover should be more frequent (or else I would just always be on 4G) or could this be signs of a similar bug that's plagued the EVO LTE?
Anybody else finding they need to toggle airplane mode to connect to LTE?

No LTE in my area so I unfortunately cant confirm or deny this issue.

I have a few LTE spots in my market and my phone picked up the signal each time I drive by them.

99% of the time I stay locked on to 4g in my area. Nothing like my Evo 4g LTE which I had to trick into locking onto LTE with *#*#4636#*#* or whatever it was. This thing is much more LTE reliable.

Op try switching roam mode to home (sprint only). This have worked real well for me.

Thanks, I'll give this a try.
--Edit--
Just to confirm you are telling me to change Roaming Network from Automatic to Home Only. Is that correct?

I was amazed at this phone on verizon.

You got me beat. I was amazed at the 24-26 I got in the Cincinnati-day ohio area. Coming from a galaxy s3 I was use to 6-8 on average.

This is the best I've gotten so far. Northwest Minneapolis suburbs.

I don't get higher than 9 down where I am. I'm actually sort of disappointed in this. I was hoping that my area was on XLTE. On regular LTE, the network is so saturated and crappy. I have 50/5 internet through Centurylink, with a Netgear Nighthawk router. My wifi speed tops out at 12 down. I get 26 down on my macbook, and 46 down on a wired connection.
I really was hoping for better results. I mean I know that the LTE situation in my area is a sad joke, but I have some pretty good speeds through CL.

I'm pretty happy

my area used to get horrible speeds of like 1mbps. I complained a lot. I think they finally fixed the towers here, and my g2 started getting like 10 to 15...ny note 4 gets 20 to 30. it's pretty awesome.

You guys still on "global" or did you switch to "LTE/CDMA"? Trying to decide if I should switch. Not really noticing any problems with Global but I haven't really ran much tests. Will do some today and post back.

I got 25mpbs where my g2 couldn't pull 10

Also Verizon.

switched to LTE/CDMA and noticed no difference.

Did this one just yesterday morning. Super happy.

Took this right after getting the phone.

The was on my Note 3, but the Note 4 would have gotten the exact same thing.

I get those speeds throughout my college campus in So Cal. I've actually stopped using the campus Wi-Fi because of it. Thank god for unlimited data.
