Mine has been pretty decent...tested at different spots around N Fla

sigh, if i walk out o my campus and go on to another school i can get 8.8 Mbps :silly:

Will modem make difference in 4G speed?
Assuming there a modem out later

This is what I get in morristown NJ. Unlimited data plan...

Make sure they actually have your upgraded plan in the system and your not being throttled. I've had that happen before. Good luck!

Depends on where you live and how saturated your area is with 4G devices. When my area got it.... And I was testing before they made a official announcement I got 7-9mbps and sometimes 10+ mbps for a couple months. But eventually there were a lot of 4G devices coming online and Clearwire offers wimax 4G service for your home now..... Speed test show 3-5mbps.
Samsung Galaxy S II
Yeah these results are from Chicago.
I get about 8000 down and 1500 up but only in my neighborhood. Elsewhere it is like 3000 to 6000 mbps down
I get this types of speed at home and around the neighborhood but i get sh*t speed anywhere else.

Think of 4G like Wifi...(it is in fact Wifi's humongous younger brother, built for wide scale) Wifi and Wimax and 2G/3G and Bluetooth are different radios. The 2G/3G radio is the one all mucked up.
because 4g service is from Clearwire , and not sprint
is that Los or just a real no sign

I think I also hag a 3g signal happens two times today .last night I installed a Archidroid don't know if that caused my no service also I don't get a roaming warning anymore .I'm all stock
Sent from my SPH-D710 using XDA App
Had that happen to me except I had full bars but no cell service. When I turned 4g off, the 3g symbol would cone back but no data. Reset fixed. damn los.

Sprint Galaxy S3 users

Hey fellow S3 users just a recommendation about data speeds. I was having pretty slow speeds on 3g at home so I decided to Do some changes. I went to settings/mobile networks/network mode and select the cdma, lte, evdo setting and it will restart on its own to change settings. After doing that change it appears that my Internet became faster. I know it's not scientific fail proof test but it's worth a try.

Network vision delivering finally...

In Evanston, IL 3g seems to be more than usable finally (I may even describe it as speedy) ...but not LTE quite yet - at least in the closest tower to me

Lol....
I don't have screen shots but I pulled 2.23mbps down and .9 up the other night then it switches back to the crappie tower and it's 400 or less down and .9 up, progress from the 22kbps I sometimes see.
Another Evanston citizen...
I get the same speeds now as well.

We have 4g?

Idk but I havent noticed anything for 4g related..like no toggle settings .. when im out I get 3g ...is the note 2 4g capable?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using xda app-developers app
Its an LTE device but if you dont LTE coverage in your area you will remain on 3G until sprint activates it in your area. *you may have 4G in your area but LTE is different

I noticed that too, however after looking around it sounds Like a lot of new phones are set up to automatically detect and connect to 4g. If it doesn't connect it may not be in your area yet. If you want to try to force it go into settings and uncheck and then check connections optimizer. That will force a scan of available networks.
