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.

As you can see I don't have internet at home through Sprint. The Wifi was off. Decided to swich carriers. Already called sprint today and asked them to waive my early cancellation fee. He said he will call me next Tuesday.
You sure you had Wifi off? It shows it as on in the screenshot.
But you can check and see if Network Vision is upgrading soon in your neighborhood.

Yes it was off. I turned it on and went back to the program to take the snapshot. Here is a pick with wifi on.
PS: I'm rocking your ICS theme in my Calk ROM btw. You are the man buddy.
I'm running ek02 ROM, desperado 1.3 ek02 kernel and ek02 modem. I'll flash el29 modem and see if I notice any difference.
I'll flash ek02 again and post the numbers.
Now I'm getting 200's to 450. There must be varying amounts of network traffic tonight. It's only 12:41am, so people are probably still awake and using the data network. You could try a different host like Naples. Sometimes speakeasy speedtest on a browser gives different numbers out of Atlanta. Wanna see a crazy ass screen shot with 4g that I think was a fluke?
Miami is a city being worked on now. You won't see improvements for another 2 to 3 months. The reason for all the decrease on speeds is due to the off loading sprint is doing right now

That's because I get 29% off from them through work, but I suspect I'll be ditching them shortly. It just isn't worth waiting for the upgrades to be completed. For comparison purposes. It took me 7 minutes to download a 6 MB app on their 3G. LOL. Thank god for WIFI.

Correction. Waiting months or years to get to the point where Verizon is already at 4g wise, 3g is still a joke, even post upgrade.

I used to have Sprint and their slow data so I switched to the Galaxy Nexus with 4G LTE from Verizon. It puts my Comcast Cable to shame.

Whereabouts in Orlando? I'm by Conroy and I4 and have had poor signal and speeds for a long time. Even with my EVO. I max out at about 1500/1200 on 4G and 200/150 on 3G.

Not really sure if this should go here but I'm getting a Galaxy SIII soon. Today I received a "no CDMA network could be reached" message on my Moto Photon so I call my buddy that works at Sprint and he confirmed that tower upgrades are live in our area and we will probably have a rough time of it until complete.
I'm pretty excited about this and can't wait till I have the SIII in my hands. Stupid WiMax lol.

There is a small and I'm mean SMALL areas in Flint, MI where 4G pops on for me, I went to the Sprint store right by that area and the rep told me that they are installing for the area but are not announcing it since it isn't supposed to be live yet till later this year, but that it was working in some areas....

A friend that lives in Ann Arbor says they're working on the towers right now and that's why you when u stream music it cuts out, they want 4g up by spring apparently he heard through his contact at Sprint which was just a guy at a Sprint store.

A friend of mine that works for BestBuy mobile was told by his Sprint rep that their goal was to have most of the larger cities along the 94 corridor up by the end of q1. I would think that A2 falls in that category.

Not yet, but my source told me it was supposed to come on around the same time as Battle Creek. So far there is only 1 tower up here, so I think it's just in the testing phase right now.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using Tapatalk 2
Yeah, they are testing it now, to be officially "launched" they need 2/3 of the city covered, so when they actually do launch Grand Rapids, it'll be a lot more than just Alpine, and at this point, they could turn it off any day since it's not official

I would not mind having 4G even if crappy.
Your Download speeds should always be almost double your Upload speeds, when they're not like in your screen shot usually means there's a glitch in your tower, if it's consistant I would **72786* it, happens to me sometimes when switching roms. It needs to re sync itself with the tower stuff. Just throwin that out there, hope it helps. Also my speeds on 3G have been all over the place because of the tower work going on in my area. One day I get 2.3 mps the next I'm crawling at less than 100 kps. But yes much more enjoy sending Sprint half the $$ Verizon wants!
