Time Warner using Clear/Sprint 4g?

Coverage map looks the same as Clear/Sprint...

I'm pretty sure time warner, comcast, Cox, and google are all part owners of Clear. Sprint just owns the most at 51%.

Wikipedia will give you full details about the company including owners. I think your list is correct but I am too lazy to look it up right now.

I'm a tech for Clear, and I heard about Comcast using our network back in the beginning of summer.

I have Clear for my internet provider and it works pretty good at home but I do not receive 4g on my phone at the same location. Why is that?

For lack of better words, Sprint hasn't tapped into the backhaul of Clearwires 4g network yet on the cell tower that is feeding you your 4g on the computer. If you are getting 4g on your phone in other places around town, than its just a matter of time before Sprint integrates their services with clearwires 4g at your house.

Sweet.. I'm running cm6 with snap turbo.. I check xda everyday hoping they integrate it in asop some how.. so I wont know when clear and sprint merge their 4g :sadface:
I can't wait to move... I'm gonna base my next home on my 4g signal.. lol I'm cheap and wanna use wifi tether to play on xbox live..

Holy batwings, it looks like my area will actually be covered; although I'll believe it when I see it. lol

Saw this and cussed a little. Central VA ignored again. Knew WiMax wan'tt happening but figured with several Universities and Government installations around maybe LTE would make it here.
Thanks Sprint.

but you'll get roaming lte. better than nothing i suppose.

Niiiice. All of Maryland is covered.
Now I just need that blasted Galaxy Nexus...

why the gnex... give sprint like 2 months and get the one x seriously the gnex is so far behind even compaired to our phones.

sweet my area is in there....looks like my contract will be up next year so plenty of time to get an lte phone

I thougth when they dropped clearwire things would slow down?

my part of Arizona is covered

Clearwire was never dropped. You might be mistaken with Lightsquare.. Sprint always planed on building its own LTE network. Clearwire and Lightsquare are just extra support.

There is no roam agreement for lte and won't be unless the FCC mandates it .... Just like VZW doesn't let you roam 3g but certain circumstances....

They should.
I'm really surprised that it isn't a much larger area considering that Network Vision was supposed to bring LTE to every tower on Sprint's network and their network coverage was supposed to expand pretty significantly with the Network Vision project.
We'll see.

Am I missing something? Do they consolidate areas in some weird arrangement? The state lines are really f'd up can somebody explain this to me?
Based on this though I'm good since I live in Kansas, specifically Overland Park

Sprint has roaming agreements with the major carriers VZW etc but they don't allow roaming 3g but on certain prl ....so that is why people hack PRls to allow 3g like the 11115 corporate prl allows 3g in certain areas .... But most roaming on VZW is 1x

Short rant about network vision

So they are doing network vision updates in my area.
The area's that are done are pretty nice. No boost in signal which is fine, but the data speeds are fantastic! Unfortunately that's downtown only. The rest of the city on the other hand though had it's tower's taken offline for the upgrade and the towers serving us is now just the ones downtown. At home i went from 4ish bars to roaming missing calls, texts and such. Wouldn't care but I missed a few phone interviews today and pretty livid about that.
Hopefully I'll be reaping those benefits soon, and hopefully they are deploying lte not just upgrading the cdma.
/end rant

There are some of us who experience no signal all the time and it's not from towers being taken down to be upgraded as well so cheer up

99% sure upload is throttled to 1.5 Mbps. Being the total capacity of each tower is not being hammered for upload you usually see the 1.4* Mbps like I do. Download on the other hand is getting hammered.
Before anyone compains omg throttled. That is how it is supposed to be done, when you have a limited resource you qos throttle it.

4g in my area LA works well. In doors its pretty **** but 3g is terrible

Because there are some of us that check coverage maps, before we sign a carrier's contract.
That is obviously Sprint's fault.

The coverage map for my area still shows Wimax as being available. 2 years later still nothing. So.... Some of us do check, and get done in by false or misleading info. Which ironically is sprints fault

Why am I not getting 4G LTE?

Well, I have the Sprint Version and im in Dallas, whydo i stil lonly see 3g (SLOOOOW).
I have gone back to stock and unrooted, done the updates to LG2 etc, what the hell is wrong?
Thanks
BD

You and me both. I spoke with someone with sprint and they said some towers were still being updated and that everything should be updated by July 20th but who knows. I have picked up the 4g signal a few times and the fastest down speeds I have gotten are 500kbps.

Sprint service blows...folks are having the same issue here in the 260, but atleast your bootloader is unlocked.

Yea sprint was supposed to have kc done and launched the other day. Apparently they only turned on a few towers around the city slowly and its slowly allowing more users onto the tower over time. Possibly to help prevent an overload of some sort.

False. Sprints lte markets have been launched, but the anticipated launch was met with 40% of the towers active. This means that as time goes on, the remaining 60% of the towers will turn on in due time.

Where in DFW has it worked, id like to see if im chasing my tail here.Im gonna call and ***** regardless.

Where in Dallas, I am at 183 and regal row, just spent an hour on the phone with Sprint Tech support, took the phone back to stock LEN and still nothing but "3g".
I drove up to Inwood and 35, still no 4g.
Guess Ill take it back to the store.

i'm in canada using Telus and i notice it switches from LTE to Hspa ALL time... very random, even in the same place there's no guarantee what it will be on

This new article at S4GRU almost deserves its own thread here, but there are already too many on this general subject. Most of it may be news to folks here.

Chicago (Northwest suburbs LTE) live!!

Guys--
Live in northwest suburbs outside chicago and have LTE signal out of nowhere. Specifically Bartlett,IL next to elgin/st charles/carol stream. I cant run a solid speedtest since it locks up when it checks for upload speed but got 6meg down with less than 70 millisecond times. It was going in and out im assuming from testing but it seems more consistent as i type this. Will upload speedtest results if it stops locking up.

Palatines quite a distance from Bartlett. You may be looking at the speedtest server which is automatically selected as nearest one.

There are several towers in Rockford that are scheduled for NV upgrades in August, so you might see something within a month or so.

When we were without service last month for a day Sprint told me they were adding lte to all the towers. It hard to believe anyone because nobody knows when there gonna flip the switch for sure. Sprint could of handled this better by not telling people next month or in August because the Sprint reps are consistently telling people anything to shut them up, they could have been like we're not sure and leave it at that. I wouldn't mind waiting if 3g was really 3g like on T-Mobile or [email protected] but it's really slow and unusable. I would never in my life consider there service worthy of a smartphone . I can't even stream a two minute video on YouTube it's ridiculous. This is the main reason people are so impatient ,I'm new to Sprint only a month in but i can't believe people been with these slow speeds so long, i would of jump ship along time ago. No lte by october then im off to Verizon or [email protected] where i can use my phone in a productive manor.

Actually, Samsung (the OEM) is handling the actual NV upgrades, and they've fallen a bit behind schedule from where they should be. I'm pretty sure those towers were probably originally scheduled for July, but got bumped back like a lot of them have. Sprint's really just waiting on Samsung and the backhaul providers to get everything going before they can finish it up and green light the tower.

Part of the reason why you're getting such slow 3g speeds is BECAUSE of the lack of 4g. When every single smart phone user is only using 3g, (and has unlimited data) is slows the network for everyone. Once lte is up and running we'll see speed increases in 3g as well. Just wait it out. Sprint is hands down the best deal in wireless, has great customer service, awesome phones, and unlimited data. The speed will come.
