Orange County, I get 78kbps down and 29kbps up.
Glad I have 4g coverage.

Yes, that's much closer to what I get NW of LA. I'd kill for consistent 1Mb/s down performance.

What are your speeds when you're roaming?

I'm curious to know what speeds are like on roaming also, I could prob do it and not get terminated with Sprint cuz I dont use a lot of data. Although I'm getting about 2 megs down anyway, so not to bad.

I wish I could get those 4G speeds! they don't have it around me, it's in like one city in michigan right now smh.

My 3G speeds just beat my 4G speeds.

Not by much but still...
Wow.

I agree... these are good 3G speeds. I did this a few blocks away from my house. Inside my house 3G ranges between 100kb and 400kb. And 4G does not penetrate the walls at all. I have to stand by the window or go outside to get 1 bar of 4G.

You can change it to that with ROM toolbox. Dont have to flash a whole theme/ROM just for that indicator.

I saw somebody already answered you but I thought I'd chime in anyway. It is indeed Calkulin's latest ROM. You can't beat Calk in stability.

Awesome 3g speeds on FD19 ?

So i updated to from FD16 to FD19 this morning and right away i noticed i was getting amazing 3g speeds ! Before i would get about 50-150 kb down and well now i get 500-1000 kb down. Or maybe sprint just improved their 3g here in my city ? Anyone else getting good 3g speed after updating to fd19 ?

let me nip this right now....
it's still there 100% and Sammy thought it was fixed, but realized it wasn't so it is a big ticket item again. We are expecting it to be fixed in the new few releases. Thanks to Calk for the info!!!
I agree. Without any real testing, 3G seems to be much better than before. Definitely an improvement over FD16.
What ROMs are you guys running?
Meh not really that good hate sprints 3G
Yeah i was getting 200-1.5 now i get 800-1.5 o.o it seems better XD
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
I tried EL13, FB27, EL29 and FD16. FD16 has been the best, pulling 2.25 mbps DL at my house, but I'm going to try FD19 and see if that makes a difference.
Did you guys get over 1 Mbps before you switched to the FD19 modem? I'll have to try it out after I get my replacement phone.
FD16
Hi: 1801
Lo: 1196
Avg: 1397
FD19 (15 mins later, exact same location)
Hi: 1666

Conclusion: No noticeable improvement

So your saying the Radio Interface Layer and the rest of the Operating system which stands in between the software and the hardware has nothing to do speeds? That would be hard to believe. There is plenty between the radio firmware and the software used to do the testing that can hurt speed.
Not that it normally presents any large issues but it would be foolish to believe it cant.

4g flashed on for the first time and then speed took off. Only showed 4g symbol though no LTE symbol like I was expecting. I'm in north Dallas near lewisville when it caught it. Now I'm in Carrollton and back to 3g?! Maybe it was a short test but damnnnnnnnn crazy fast, I streamed a baseball game instantly with zero lag to load and play!

I live in a suburb of Dallas, and I thought we would get 4G LTE. But our neighborhood is the only one without it according to the coverage map. If you cross the street, however, you get 4 bars of 4G. I was only able to get 10 MBps when I did cross the street.
Even though I do not have 4G, I have noticed an increase in my 3G speeds. Is that part of the plan for when the roll out 4G?

After a day of use, I did notice a little hit. I would say I lost about 4hrs of battery use. I used to get about 1 1/2 days on a charge. I had to charge last night at bed time after a days use. Could be because I was so excited about the speeds I had to use them more then usual though.

Anybody in the Memphis area getting text messages late? The past two days I've been getting texts with timestamps that are a few hours late. Just wondering if it's happening to any of you. Hoping that it's due to them getting LTE up and working on the network.

Anybody know how far signal typically reaches?
I'm 40 miles out from 2 different 4G areas, wondering if there's any chance I will ever see those signals here.
Edit: googled it. Reaches like 10 miles tops. Bummer.
