What does your signal strength read?
all it says in the notificationbar Is "searching" only when I go outside I get 4g but even then I can barely connect to the internet. And it says -113dBm 0 asu

I am having the same issue. Is anyone living in the dfw area on tmobile network having data issues? I go outside I get 15 mbps I sit in my house I get 300kpbs. Ive called tmobile and they are looking into it. But its been like this for almost a month now. You should call them and tell them whats going on. First call customer care and tell them the issue. They gave me credit on my account because why pay for something that dont work right then they'll connect you to tech support. Good luck. If we get more people to call in maybe they do something nationwide.

Some ROMs take away 4g.. I don't know about the ROM you're currently on, but mine has said I have 4G when I was really limited to 3G. I know this isn't much help, but I've had similar encounters and it was the ROM I was running.

That upload speeds are faster because they're not as heavily impacted by users as download speeds are. In other words, your local site is over capacity and its resulting in slower speeds for everyone. Once sprint upgrades your site, it'll be epic.

Think this is exactly what the problem is low signal and it continues to try sending the message over and over until it registers on sprints end that it's been sent/received... I've been sprint customer for ages and have had similar MMS issues when signal was funky, granted on different phones but still sprint... What's weird is in last 24 hours I've all of a sudden started getting 4g at my house and have started getting these weird problems MMS issues as well, multiple incoming and outgoing.. Wife picks on me... Lol, if we can get some logcats multiple users we might he able to start pinpointing these across the board issues

I have one also, it's in my second floor transmitting down to the receiver on the first floor. It works okay. I don't get 4 bars, but I also don't get dropped calls anymore and usually have 2 to 3 bars depending on where in the house I am.
Mine was free also because I complained about my coverage. I wouldn't pay too much for one though, unless you get a really good signal from the second floor that you can use.

Got one free from T-Mobile.
I was having almost no reception and this stopped the dropped calls but the gain is not like getting full bars while without gets none, if you know what I mean. It just makes the phone usable without having to use your wifi for calling. My wifi calling wasn't good for many contacts. They kept saying my voice was breaking up using the wifi so I asked t-mo to help improve the service for me and they sent the booster. No extension on the contract, no charge for the unit, and not even a charge for shipping.
Sometimes they surprise me with their customer service, and sometimes they just stink!
I guess it depends on who is "helping" you.
Bottom line, the booster works. You cannot amplify a ZERO SIGNAL so remember, you at least have to have something like 1 or two bars and it will work. They even replaced the unit after 7 months cause the signal was getting weak in the house so they said the booster was failing. Again, Free-99 for the replacement. Can't grumble about service like that.......
