OT - I'm thinking of moving to Tampa. How do you guys like living there?

It has its pluses and minuses, but nice weather you can wear shorts during Christmas.

I have shorts and a T-shirt on right now...can't beat the weather.

Cool. I used to live in Miami. Gorgeous in the winter but so hot in the summer I had to put up the top on my convertible and run the AC just not to sweat.
Love FL, because I can pay my mortgage with what I save on State taxes
Happy 4G is working there.

Tampa gets really hot too... but you have to take the good with the bad, I love it

If you really think about it, New York City gets hotter in the summer and colder in the winter than Tampa.

I think we need a LTE connection thread.
It's been in Tampa for a couple of weeks. Check Sensorly.

Because of all the threads popping up for LTE it has become necessary to put them all in one place.

4g flashed on for the first time and then speed took off. Only showed 4g symbol though no LTE symbol like I was expecting. I'm in north Dallas near lewisville when it caught it. Now I'm in Carrollton and back to 3g?! Maybe it was a short test but damnnnnnnnn crazy fast, I streamed a baseball game instantly with zero lag to load and play!

I live in a suburb of Dallas, and I thought we would get 4G LTE. But our neighborhood is the only one without it according to the coverage map. If you cross the street, however, you get 4 bars of 4G. I was only able to get 10 MBps when I did cross the street.
Even though I do not have 4G, I have noticed an increase in my 3G speeds. Is that part of the plan for when the roll out 4G?

No 4G at my home near [email protected] Hwy yet...

Top HSPA+ Speed you had?

So T-mobile Promises 42mbit HSPA+ ''4G'' Network of course speeds won't be anywhere near 30 even so don't troll. Simply post either a screenshot or write what's the top speed(s) you had on T-mobile (Doesn't have to be G S III)
Mine was 18Mbps happened when I was coming back from class, top speed I ever got. At home I get 10-12 regularly but it's useless since I have 50Mbit WiFi
There's already a thread for this subject with multiple posts. Pretty good speeds though.

Top was 19mbps, I average 12-14mbps here in SoCal.

Yeah I've gotten over 25Mbps but only in a small certain area. Most other places it's between 5-10 but i get close to 15 in spots also.
I've only seen around Sub 20 in Manhattan from my old s2 and current s3. Never seen anyone here with 30+. If I get 20-30 all day long, I'd say forget about advanced lte which should drain the battery.

Those are some awesome speeds! I live in a weak area, so my speeds are nothing close to those. I'll try it again when I go into a stronger area. Has anyone noticed any hit on the battery?
I'm throttled until the end of the month. Kinda sucks knowing it's there and i can't test it.

After a day of use, I did notice a little hit. I would say I lost about 4hrs of battery use. I used to get about 1 1/2 days on a charge. I had to charge last night at bed time after a days use. Could be because I was so excited about the speeds I had to use them more then usual though.

Anybody in the Memphis area getting text messages late? The past two days I've been getting texts with timestamps that are a few hours late. Just wondering if it's happening to any of you. Hoping that it's due to them getting LTE up and working on the network.

Anybody know how far signal typically reaches?
I'm 40 miles out from 2 different 4G areas, wondering if there's any chance I will ever see those signals here.
Edit: googled it. Reaches like 10 miles tops. Bummer.

Las vegas lte?

Quick question guys. I am using the people rom and currently in las vegas. I thought lv had 4g. Does it? If so how do I get it to work? Thanks!
Sent from my SPH-L710 using xda app-developers app
Go to Settings > Mobile and networks > and make sure your network type is set to CDMA/LTE as opposed to just CDMA
Thanks for the reply. I did that but the 4g isnt sticking. Should it?

LV still only has WiMax. No LTE there yet at least not officially, there may be a few spots active. Use the sensorly app from play store to see if theres any Sprint LTE in the area.

There is already a thread for LTE where and when. And no Vegas does not have LTE yet. There are maybe only a couple small spots in Vegas that once in awhile get LTE. My brother lives there and has no LTE.
