That sounds kinda strange, but on a side note any idea when the area near crosstown and 35w will get lte?:fingers-crossed:

The twin Cities particularly st Paul is covered in wimax when visiting patents I usually get around 7megs down on this phone on wimax best I ever got was 11 down

If you have tdunham's AIO mod the latest revision with the 3M app uses a 4glte icon for 4G.
Its still plain Jane 4G, not lte.

It will never say 4g lte unless you mod the icon.

I think your phone might be some kind of hybrid...

I have found that unlike HTC phones, I CANNOT make this phone roam on vzw
I flashed prl 00001 , my roomate has 4 bars on vzw and i still have 0 bars
You need to go into mo Ile networks and select national and international roaming the for systems select automatic.
Roaming is turned off by default.

512?? That's actually rather good for Sprint 3g.... going back and updating will not have any effect on you. I live in an area that is only 1x rtt and the best speeds I get are 20 kbps. Yes 20. I'd love to have those speeds.... So you really have nothing to complain about. It's 3 g. Not 4g...
Sent from my SPH-D710 using xda premium
wish I could get more than 10kbps in Reno Nevada you'd think they had better coverage but every 5 steps I'm roaming or I have 1x now I found out sprint won't be doing 4g wimax anymore just lte so it makes our super expensive super fast 4g wimax phones worthless. Hate how they advertise blazing fast 3g/4g and very few people actually see he speeds.

Actually I rarely get 512 kbps its actually gone as low as 100 or less for the most part.Oh yeah 4g is a joke and non existent. It will connect and get slower speeds than 3g. Oh well.

no go for me in the bronx. still slow but 4g is right where it needs to be!
You must be living directly under a tower or the force is strong with you. Nothing happening at my end.
That's the speed we got in Buffalo NY(150-250kbps).
Buffalo-the second largest city in NY always gets **** last,even Rochester has 4g.
But when i was in Rochester i tried 4g and it was almost the same as 3g about 700kbps which is the speed t mobile had 4 years ago with better ping on their 3g+,lol.

|Q| No 4G LTE with Sprint

I can't get 4G LTE to connect with my GNEX. When I was on stock I got 4G LTE, since I rooted and started using ROMs I haven't been able to get 4G. I switch the data switch to LTE/CDMA and never get 4G. I tried updating my profile, prl, radio, everything. I get decent 3G speeds but just wanna know the reason why I don't get 4G. Is it the Roms? Or..
BTW I'm in San Antonio, Texas and we do have 4G LTE here.

Well wasn't running it then but am now. Make a nandroid and flash jellybro? Try that see if that works. If so then CNA has an LTE issue.
Sent From My Toro+ via RED Tapatalk
Will do that right now. Got time.
Hopefully it's just CNA.

Could be just down for maintenance or something.

The lte towers in Texas are wonky as hell. I've had 4g on and off at my apt since July 10th or so but it never stays on. Search the market for an app called Sensorly. It is the most accurate LTE map I've come across. BTW I think sprint users should start getting on their asses about this. The whole reason I upgraded from epic is because they promised it in Dallas etc by the middle of July. But you can tell by lookin at the true coverage area that its just a joke to them.

I thought all at least most of San Antonio would have 4G LTE. Sprint 3G speeds are fine, but every other main carrier has 4G. Sprint's slacking. On the coverage map for the 4G LTE all of San Antonio is highlighted. So untrue. I know it just launched and is still kinda new, but i haven't even gotten a chance to use it or test it.
We're from the same city! I thought I should just trow that in there! Flash back to stock and if it keeps happening just go to a sprint store

Does your 4G work?
And wooooooooooo, Go Spurs Go!
Sprint 4g LTE is working here in Houston
~Samsung Galaxy SIII (SPH-L710) - Blazer ROM v1.6 - TWRP~
I'm saying its not on at all.. but the coverage isn't anywhere near what it should be. At least in the dfdub.

4g

Can someone please tell me what network settings should the galaxy note be on to get 4g?
Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2
What area are you in and you know for sure you have lte? It should be on automatic or CDMA/lte
Well, what happened was last night I was at home and I think it was set to CDMA, but I looked in the status bar and it said 4g clear as day (with data) and I was shocked. I'm in Chattanooga tn. It kept switching from 3g to 4g.

Im in knoxville and ive been getting that also.its back and forth..I think its because they are finally starting to switch over
Im in cali and I kept loosing my signal and data so I called sprint they told me that there updating the towers near my location.

4G LTE in Atlanta, GA :D

I just saw the 4G LTE icon in my house (Norcross, GA) can anyone else in or around this area confirm 4G LTE?
Just one issue. with 4G, i used to get 4 bars stable in my house. and now that theres LTE, it went down to around 1 bar or 2 sometimes.
Im sorry, but have you not seen the mass of locked threads pertaining to this statement? There is an official thread to post this.
Dont get upset as this isnt a flame, but please no more of these
