I'm getting some seriously sluggish speeds right now on T-Mobile here in Orlando (.67 down) all of a sudden.
Anyone else having issues?

Yeah dude, I'm in Oviedo working right now and I'm having issues loading anything at all. I'm on the Note 2 port. I had stellar speeds yesterday on it so I know it's not the ROM.

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

I'm having to flip airplane mode on and back off to get a quick signal enough to load a page.
I'm headed home to Casselberry in a few, will see if luck is any better there.

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.

Problems with 3g data

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?

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.
Sent from my LG-LS970 using xda app-developers app

yeah.. it is pretty annoying... sprint's 3g network is like a ****... it is dang slow.... makes me feel like i'm using EVDO only with my 4G SMARTPHONE with stupid $10 PREMIUM DATA CHARGE!!! wtf...
Aa you see at the sreenshot, UPlaod speed is faster then download speed... weird...
is there any solution for this?

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.

The phone is already LTE capable, however T-Mobile needs to flip the switch 1st then we will get an update.

Not yet tmobile not ready 4 lte sometime in 2014
Sent from my SGH-T889 using xda premium

Or more likely 2013 depending in your area.
Hastily spouted for your befuddlement

Hopefully someone can find out how to activate LTE so that we won't have to wait til 2014 when the phone is outdated.

2014? Really dude....phone is already LTE capable and tmo is rolling out their 4G this coming year. Chill out.

Enabling the phone won't do crap until Tmo heats up their LTE mojo on the network. Patience grasshopper.

Not everyone who has the T889 is on Tmobile like you. The phone may have an LTE chip, but it's not usable... so it's not really "LTE capable".

Glonass gps support?

Anybody knows if this phone comes with it enabled like the Galaxy S3/Note 2? I know the S4 chip supports it but I keep reading online some manufacturers like HTC and LG disable it. Anyone?

Basically I'm looking to see if this phone has the ability to see the extra Russian satellites. Like this picture, the square ones are glonass. Gps is so great getting locks with the extra sats. Person already has issues with her current phone (gs2) so that's my main reason for checking. If not I guess gs3 it is =(

I owned an s2 before this phone and I can tell you that the Gps in the s2 was crap! The difference in the lock on time between these two phones are night and day.. As far as picking up the extra Russian satellites I'm not sure on.

Thanks for the feedback. I'm just going to go to the Sprint store and downloading gps status on one and see what it pulls. I also need to check the Evo lte since I will be choosing out of these two phones.

Nearly positive it does since it uses the S4 Pro, everything after the S4 should have it built in.

That's exactly what I'm assuming. Although some websites say htc and LG choose to disable it on some devices.

If it's anything like my Note 2 I already know! Those are indeed Russian satellites. I'm already sold on getting her this device just for the fact it's a quadcore plus now it's verified that glonass is enabled. I hope development for this phone picks up asap!

Cancel your Netflix accounts...

https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.kmc.onechannel.tvshows
That application found in the app store is 100x better.
It has every episode of everything with new episodes updated as soon as an hour before it even airs (for me being on the west coast, things come on earlier on the east coast), situated nicely into an easy to use interface.
There are a few bugs, but they are bearable, and worth the price of $0.
I've been using this for about a month and I'm also thinking about canceling my cable tv.
Tell me whatcha guys think.

I have never heard of that until my friend showed me it like last week. You've got this plus more, and it looks even better and easier to navigate around right?
I was just sharing because it's a mobile app on the marketplace and people like connecting their phone directly to their tele to watch things.

Sweet. I don't use Netflix from my phone, but this looks great. Love that I can use it on my Logitech Revue. I use Icefilms a lot, but that doesn't work very well with Android. This works pretty good over wifi if you grab a link that is working.
