Problems with 3g data - Sprint LG Optimus G

Anyone else have the sprint version of this phone and have problems with 3g data at times. For example it sometimes says I have full bars but Facebook will say that I don't have a connection at all. I'm wondering if its the phone or does sprint just have crappy 3g in LA? What do you guys think?

Switch the phone to only CDMA and it seems to be working a lot better with 3g now

I've been getting random loss of signal. Sometimes my 3g comes off even though I'm not in a fringe area

Its the network its been happenin to my Galaxy nexus too
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

OK so switch to just CDMA helped a bit but its still happening. I think it may be a soft wear issue. I hope that's just it.

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.

I had this problem last week but im in NYC, it could be related to Tmobile upgrading its network.

Yeah I agree. The reason I say that is because one of the guys here has Metro and he's having really spotty connection as well all of a sudden.
The merger did go through, I got a letter from T-Mobile in the mail yesterday about the merger.

Status bar says I have 4G LTE but 5mbs? I've seen other people well beyond 30mbs.. 5mbs seems more like HSPA+..

Probably just the area. My HSpa+ speeds are so erratic lately.. sometimes I only get like 50kb per sec its horrible.. att needs to step it up and upgrade the network.
Sent from my SGH-I747 using xda premium
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.

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.

You don't have wifi ? because wifi calling is great...but conversely you might try turing your phones wifi off at the house and restart..I had a problem at first as the phone would jump off the gsm network and on to a bad wifi signal

You can grab Phone Info and set your radio to LTE Only. If you still have data, then you are not 'trippin' and have an LTE connection.
What is your speed though? I'm getting pretty good speeds here in the D.C area.
It was only on for a bit, my speeds were no where near what you got.

Data speed question.

Hey y'all. I have a Nexus 4 on T-Mobile and consistently get over 20mbs dl speeds and 1 or 2 mbs up and that's on 3g.. on LTE its even faster..
Here's my question. A good friend of mine recently got the Optimus G with sprint and has yet to see more than 1mbs down or up. He briefly had a 4g connection and still couldn't break a meg. Is this normal for Sprint? Is there anything he could do to increase his speed or better his connection?
And its not like we're in a low service area.. here in central FL outside of Orlando pretty much all the big carriers are here in full strength.
Thanks for your input guys.
3G is pretty much garbage everywhere but in Florida 4g should be at least 5 MBps Down or higher
