I can't get 4G LTE to connect with my GNEX. When I was on stock I got 4G LTE, since I rooted and started using ROMs I haven't been able to get 4G. I switch the data switch to LTE/CDMA and never get 4G. I tried updating my profile, prl, radio, everything. I get decent 3G speeds but just wanna know the reason why I don't get 4G. Is it the Roms? Or..
BTW I'm in San Antonio, Texas and we do have 4G LTE here.

Well wasn't running it then but am now. Make a nandroid and flash jellybro? Try that see if that works. If so then CNA has an LTE issue.

Will do that right now. Got time.
Hopefully it's just CNA.

The lte towers in Texas are wonky as hell. I've had 4g on and off at my apt since July 10th or so but it never stays on. Search the market for an app called Sensorly. It is the most accurate LTE map I've come across. BTW I think sprint users should start getting on their asses about this. The whole reason I upgraded from epic is because they promised it in Dallas etc by the middle of July. But you can tell by lookin at the true coverage area that its just a joke to them.

I thought all at least most of San Antonio would have 4G LTE. Sprint 3G speeds are fine, but every other main carrier has 4G. Sprint's slacking. On the coverage map for the 4G LTE all of San Antonio is highlighted. So untrue. I know it just launched and is still kinda new, but i haven't even gotten a chance to use it or test it.
We're from the same city! I thought I should just trow that in there! Flash back to stock and if it keeps happening just go to a sprint store

So I'm switching over from the T-Mobile G2x and I'm getting the Galaxy Nexus from the play store next week, and I wanna know how good is T-Mobile on this phone like the signal strength? Which HSPA+ do we get 21 or 42? Just wanna make sure it works with T-Mobile.

Oh it works and its only 21 but not like bit matters no one comes close and signal strength is crap in my house it struggles to get one bar where the s2 got two or three. But service is good nonetheless

I had a g2x. The nexus gets better service than it did across the board, but my SGS4G got a little better data speeds (its also a 21hspa+ device) whereas the nexus does better on cell service.

When I reboot my phone it shows that I have 4G 2 bars for about 10 seconds until being thrown off ****ty 3G Connection. In the sprint Coverage map it shows that my area has 4G LTE (Zip Code is 78223 in case you want to check)

And with that attitude I don't think you'll get any.
Its normal for it to do that. It detects 3G being stronger and switches. You have to put it in LTE only mode. Its a dialer code. Or you can you a JB ROM that has that option like cm10 or CNA.
Sent From My Toro+ via RED Tapatalk
man I wish I could help I live just outside a lte area (san antonio), the day they rolled out lte there I was driving through visiting family. I went from full on lte to 3g to low lte to 3g to just 3g btw I was all over san antonio. I wasn't impressed. That being said I would love to even have lte anytime to fully use my gnex.
I hope someone can help you out with your problem. At the time I was running a ics rom so I haven't even tried one with jb.

I guess all I can say is just because a coverage map says you have service doesn't mean you will. There are a lot of places that I've seen have coverage according to the map (back when I had Sprint and now T-Mobile) that just don't fulfill that promise. There are so many factors that come into play in the real world when getting a signal that just can't be represented by a coverage map.
Not to mention that Sprint's LTE network is extremely new and hardly rolled out to full strength.

Got 4G LTE again, let's hope it stays this time.. my thought would be that Sprint currently has workers working in the towers. Because now I have an average of 2-3 Bars of 4G. 30 minutes ago when I had 4G I had 1-2 bars of 4G.

Arizona got minimal coverage over WiMax. We still aren't on that list anywhere. At least, I've noticed a significant improvement on 3g in my area. I was sorely tempted to jump ship to a more expensive GSM option for all five people on my plan. HSPA+ would almost be worth the extra $ each month.

I'm in Houston, and we went live in July. However, actual LTE coverage is very spotty. I live 1 mile away from an area that gets 4 bars of LTE, and I painfully only get 1 bar (if lucky) of 3G slooooow data at home. Very frustrating. And its like this for most of the city, from what I've experienced.

Houston here also. I got the phone about a month ago with only one spot of lte. Now I'm covered just about everywhere I go now. They just lit up a tower by the house now. Just about every week I find a new tower. I'm on the westside of Houston.
Check out this app it will give you an idea of where lte is. Its based on user input so it might not show everything.

Anyone living in the area can tell me if lte is available there?

According to Sensorly, there's not any 4G LTE there, yet. When are you going? Because Orlando's LTE sites should be popping up very, very soon.

You'll most likely have 3g speeds (They're doing work in Orlando). When I went to Disney last year, I had about 450-550 kbps through all of Magic Kingdom. YMMV.

I hope they get SOMETHING there. In April, the 3g was WORTHLESS in the parks. Seriously.
I will say this, when I and the family was at Universal Studios and Disney World for the week, people everywhere were on their phones, and I would say 95% had iPhones. I saw only one person with a GS3.
I had dinner at the California Grill on top of the Contemporary last night (12/29/2012) and got a LTE signal. 11MB down/5up
Not sure if you've been already or not but I got LTE service this morning for the first time I've noticed on 429 for a couple miles at least, I read 11.21up,3.42 down---- 20.27up 6.72down---- 12.14up .75down.
i was in orlando last weekend (universal studios) and the in park coverage was horrid. it was pretty busy so i don't know if it was just the number of people there or what. also i had my roaming off. outside the park, the coverage was ok (3 bars). i don't remember any lte
