Im looking into buying this phone. Currently on a galaxy s3. I have no 4g lte coverage in my area. Is this phone 4g wimax capable as well as lte

No, the Sprint (toroplus) version does not have wimax.
WiMAX Lte phones do , not exist.either wimax or Lte.

According to the post on Engadget, the galaxy nexus might possibly be coming to sprint and having lte. If it does and my area has lte I'm getting it!!!

I suspect it will be announce at CES, with a useless 4g chip until the end of the year. It was an official sprint ad.

But my other question, and I know we won't know until the full specs at released, but do you think it would have Wimax and lte or just lte? Similar to how AT&Ts lte phones have lte and hspa+

Wimax is frequently built right into the wifi chip, so it is possible, but I doubt it. It would be inelegant to have 3g, Wimax, and lte. Most likely will be 3g and lte.

Just got connected to the 4G lte network with sprint. Still not as fat as the other companies but wayyyy better than 3g

Damn that's awful.. But proportional to Sprint's 3G speeds. Matches HSPA haha

Actually I got better speeds.
i just got my Gnex...is there a way to turn off 4G ??...i dont see anything in the settings
That is because it is called 3g.
You want to check 2g under mobile network settings.

thanks...so that will allow me to use only 2/3G not HSPA+ all the time...im using the phone on AT&T if that makes a difference

HSPA+ is an enhanced form of 3g. If you check to use 2g, that is what AT&T calls Edge service.

ok...thanks!...
Lol the 9250 doesn't have a 4g modem even though t-mobile & at&t market HSPA+ as 4G. 3G and HSPA are the same tech.

I thought the Note II handled simultaneous voice/data over 4G. I tried to use it today and couldn't even though I clearly had 4G connection.
Has this worked for anyone else? I'm wondering if I was really connected to the "enhanced" 3G and LTE

Voice and LTE work simultaneously. Or at least on my phone.

I'm thinking that I may have been on the enhanced 3G and not actual LTE. Does your signal show 4G or LTE?
Thanks

It shouldnt matter what 3G your on. Sprint does not have an enhanced 3g (4g). LTE is the only 4g that the Sprint Note 2 has. So if your running LTE it should work.
Oh and the phone doesn't show LTE only 4G icon.

This depends on what rom you are on. If stock then it will show 4g.some roms have it show lte when the phone is connected to 4g.
there is simultaneous voice/data over LTE but not on 3g. On a stock rom it will day 4g at the top.
