Network Vision is occuring in LA, you'll have 4G LTE soon. Just hang in there, it's tower maintenance.
Wow just earlier this month I searched for 4g lte in LA and I couldn't find anything. I searched Network Vision and see that we will probably have it going this September. Awesome. Thanks for letting us know.

Dont forget, you can always dial *18, its usually good to give u atleast one extra bar.
don't hold your breath but i was told the same thing and two months later nothing just saying don't get your hopes up.

Not going to happen in September, probably more like October or November at the earliest.

Same here. At home I get full bars, but when I go to school, I lose signal quite a lot. I live a couple of miles away from downtown, what about you guys?

I'm in Sherman Oaks.
My signal has been spotty as well all up and down the 605.
On jb ROMs vs. Stock ROM? My reception indoors is horrible. And outside it drops sometimes to nothing then comes up back down. You just never know

I'm not sure if that's the phone's fault. Because I always get full bars unless im in a rural area with not much around. Even in basements I get 2-3 bars when my friend's have zero signal

I just flashed to cm10,but I was using stock firmware all last week and I think reception is great both indoors and outdoors. I use to get no reception in certain elevators with my nokia and xperia play. With the Samsung, in those areas I get 3to4 bars.

I'm on stock, so whatever that is, I'm using it. Although I can confirm that using JB roms (such as CM10) on and s3 has no effect because my friend has the identical model I do (Both of ours were locked to Rogers before we both unlocked them to use on Telus) and the signal is always the same
Sometumes my bars drop to nothing and there is a black signal bars with grey out line and it will do that for a couple minutes then jump up to 4g or what ever reception I get at the time. Then out hers I'll get full bars. Sometimes I get no data at all just call with no internet. Maybe I got a NAD phone or something

It's now almost 4am ET, couldn't sleep so I'm on my phone. I'm downloading stuff and updating some apps and noticed my speeds are not going above 50k! I'm on the unlimited 4g plan and shouldn't be throttled. I restarted my phone and ran a speedtest and it seemed fine ran a second one and it went right back to high pings and speeds in the 100ks!
something up with the network tonight? Will check when I get up later, and if I'm still getting these crappy speeds I will contact tmobile.

You are getting similar speeds to what I was getting when I was capped. Call 611 and ask them.

For the love of god, someone please help after I explain wth is going on.
Ive been running Infamous Rom for a while & a few days ago, my 4g startef acting up. I tried a different rom but no real change. I went back to Sonic FreeGS3 which had previou as ly ran fine but my 4g still sucks. Most apps are ok but Play Store & my web browsers refuse to load 9/10 times. I tried flashing UVLI6 & 5 modems but nothing. Do you guys think my 4g antenna went out? My wifi works flawlessly.
I live in NYC & most people had said UVLI6 was great here but not for me. Please help

Did you check your imei?
Settings, about device, status.
Sent from my SGH-T999 using xda premium
Still got my imei, flashed a different modem late last night & so far so good. I had the same problem with my wifes phone after I rom'ed hers but I restored it & it was fine after. I guess T Mobile changed something and I was on the wrong frequency to get a signal.

Maybe you're in an area that was recently refarmed/upgraded.

Im in brooklyn ny so its possible. I used a trick I saw online about keeping the ohone in wcdma only & that had worked from the day after I made this post til now. Is there an updated radio available or would I have to flash back to the latest stock rom? This is really starting to annoy the hell out of me

All modems are avail thru link in my sig.

Same thing has been happening to me. I'm in the upper Manhattan area and getting really poor 4g in my apt, like 1 or 2 bars, and dropping to 2g. I started noticing it yesterday. I'm calling T-Mobile tomorrow to see what's up.

Sounds to me like they may be doing maintenance or upgrades.
Call T-Mobile though and they should be able to tell you for sure.

Im on the mk2 modemn and Im lucky to get 1 or 2 signal bars.
Sent from my SGH-M919 using xda app-developers app
Me definitely. Before I used to get like 1 to no bars or service in my room but now I get 3 at the least. Call quality is so much better as well

I noticed my LTE speeds jumped up about 5mbs but my battery life was reduced to about 4 hours using Hyperdrive.
It's definitely been an improvement for me. Less call drops with the people I call most.

The first time I tried it, I only got Edge, and had many problems.
reverted to stock and rooted and reloaded my nandroid backup and tried again....
Wow! there is a DEFINITE DIFFERENCE !!! I am now getting LTE with more bars, and also I see 4G where I hardly ever saw it in my house! Now, after the flash, I almost NEVER see EDGE anymore. I think this is a superb improvement to the GS4...
just for anyone's knowing...
I am on 4.2.2 and had upgraded the baseband to UVAMDL and it still shows that in "About phone" but the results are better than anything I have attempted before... I even got a Signal Booster from TMO lol... Now I don't need it!
Great find and fix guys!
Aloha !
O.k. I finally got my baseband updated to fnb4 and my signal Is awesome and I'm getting 4G Lte in alot more places now. Thanks

Does this apply only to phone calls or is data faster, too?

Signal for me is stronger and for whatever reason LTE is faster too. I didn't update the LTE radio so I can't explain that but I'll take it.
