So I'm switching over from the T-Mobile G2x and I'm getting the Galaxy Nexus from the play store next week, and I wanna know how good is T-Mobile on this phone like the signal strength? Which HSPA+ do we get 21 or 42? Just wanna make sure it works with T-Mobile.

Oh it works and its only 21 but not like bit matters no one comes close and signal strength is crap in my house it struggles to get one bar where the s2 got two or three. But service is good nonetheless

I had a g2x. The nexus gets better service than it did across the board, but my SGS4G got a little better data speeds (its also a 21hspa+ device) whereas the nexus does better on cell service.

H is "4g". It should show 3g until its actually actively transferring data then switch to H.

Assuming that I'm completely understanding your case and question... I could really say something that will be extremely embarrassing, considering how completely asinine and ignorant this question in... but I'll keep it civil: if you're on T-Mobiles network, and T-Mobile doesn't have 4G LTE, can you explain to me how on Earth you think that you'll be getting 4G LTE just because you're using an AT&T phone??? Surely, you wouldn't be foolish enough to be suggesting that LTE is built into a specific handset.
Thank you for being civil with me.
I know the tmo doesnt get lte. I meant 4g hspa+

Test speeds with speedtest.net app on both stock and a ROM for comparison. Some ROMs say 3g when they are on hspa+.
Be warned. This takes up around 5 megs a pop. So don't do it a ton of times.

View the speedtest in my signature. The OPs speeds seem to be on the lower end of things for AT&T LTE. I've seen much higher than mine, and a lot of people get around what I get.
Wow. Every speed test I've seen is super good. Mine never even really goes pass about 4mbps download and about 1.5 upload. Im in the denver area.

Just stayed in northwest Georgia last week and was getting 30-50mb down about 20 up. Thats crazy.
Perfectly happy with my 5-10mb down at home.
I did use 4gb of data in georgia though.

i used to pull down 40-60mbps in the metro atlanta area on my old LTE skyrocket but on my note 2, i've been averaging 15-20mbps. other cities i've traveled to, i was seeing 30+.
i got the skyrocket right at launch and it was samsung's first at&t LTE phone so i'm guessing that the network's bandwidth was hardly being used but with the iphone 5, gs3, and note 1 & 2, there's a lot more congestion which is driving the speeds way down.
I recently had about 45 down and 25 up around Detroit since there's like no one there haha

I envy you guys. I'm in saturated SoCal and i'd be lucky to peak in the 10-15mbps. I might as well turn off LTE

I had this problem when I first got my NoteII. I was coming from a NON LTE device so when I switched the phone they didn't put me on a LTE plan. If you are in a good area where they have LTE give AT&T a call and make sure you are on a LTE plan. Also if you are on a custom ROM you may have the wrong APN settings.
On LTE I am getting 55 down 35 up all times of day.

Here were some of my recent LTE speed tests.
I am using the avatar rom on my att note 2 and I am not able to get 4g anymore I have ran speed tests and the speeds are very slow. I have set the apn to att lte and still getting similar speeds. Any ideas on how to get faster lte speeds along with the 4g icon isn't showing.

I am having a similar problem. I've flashed this ROM awhile ago and have noticed I'm not getting LTE, only H+. I'm with Bell and not sure what I need to install or where I can find the correct APN needed?

So, I just ran a speedtest on T-mobiles LTE network with my new Note 3, and I am VERY impressed!
32Mbps Down and almost 18Mbps up
Color me jealous. I don't have T-Mobile LTE where I am, only HSPA. They do list a couple of cities in my state that have LTE, but I'm not really near them at all. Hopefully they'll expand out quickly!

That is pretty impressive. where are you located?
I don't know why, but with my S4 and Note 3 HSPA (4G) I get 27 down and 9 up on average, but on LTE I only get 13 down and 12 up. HSPA seems to be a little faster here in Tampa, Florida than LTE. T-Mobile's HSPA is capable of 42 MBPS and so are the phones. So i keep my phone set at hspa instead of LTE. I also get 4 to 5 bars of signal on 4G and only 1 or 2 on LTE which might explain the speed difference
Just did a test outside near a tower. I got 22 down and 11 up. Pretty decent.

I think they are testing LTE in the Louisville, Kentucky area. LTE hasn't offically been announced, but I'm connected to LTE with 2 bars. I got 9.78 down and 3.34 up which isn't great. On HSPA+ I got 7.15 down and 1.30 up with full bars.

Just pulled 30ms, 25.5 down, 1.15 up in my 1st floor APT where Sprint barely gets a 3G signal. Needless to say, I'm happy with my change of carrier

The more I run Speedtest, the faster it gets Also, I've used about 500MB worth of data through Speedtest... So this is what it's like to have a usable data network, eh? I'm loving it! DIAF, Sprint
Wow that great speed. In what area of the country are you?
