[Q] Upload and Download speeds on 1.8.3 - Atrix 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I was just wondering what everyone is getting on the upload/download speeds upon the OTA to 1.8.3? Also, what speeds are we supposed to be getting? I keep seeing people getting between 1.5-2.0MB and was told we were supposed to be receiving 6-10MB. Just wanted to know for sure.

My fastest download is 4.57Mb.. I am not in a 4g area though. I did notice a big diff when the new update came out. Before I was only getting around 1.5.

Have up to 7.5 down
and up to 2.5 up

Jameason My fastest download is 4.57Mb.. I am not in a 4g area though. I did notice a big diff when the new update came out. Before I was only getting around 1.5.
Im smack dab in the middle of California and I am only getting 1.9MB down and 1.2MB up. I dont know how you are getting better speeds, and that is with full bars on my end. Weird

Boston, Mass area - Averaging about 2.5Mbps d/l and 1.2 Mbps u/l with Atrix 4.1.83 on GingerBlur 3.1.
Wifes' new Inspire 4G with latest OTA update gets 4.5Mbps d/l and 330 Kbps u/l.

3M down 1.1M up to server in NYC. No change for me but I'm not on 4G

Here is mine. I am also NOT in a 4G area ( but I am still very happy with my current speeds.

I remember when I would see speeds like that.
They were all done at a 5am people were sleeping. Post some afternoon shots when people are up and actively using their phone. I get those speed at am hours too. Once day light comes i drop as low as 0.01kb

These are my speeds, my 3D is flashed to reliance in India so I can also use Sprint Hotspot for free without root.
Here's myself in Arlington right now. Oh and how bout them tornadoes!
Swyped from mah 3vo!
Here is a more realistic look at normal speeds in the Dallas area, all are in Downtown Dallas. The two fastest ones were on 4G.
I win.
Not bad
Greetings from Slovenia
Im in Dallas as well and when they say its as different as day and night, they are right.
Its great at night and sucks in the day. Cant wait for Network Vision to be launched in Dallas.
not the greatest speeds ever, but hey at least we have Unlimited speeds with Sprint unlike any other wireless carrier lol

Seems to be right on par what I get in Arlington area. It's rare that I have full signal except when driving and passing a tower. I usually don't even bother using mobile internet anymore unless I just have to.

Bad data speeds

Since I got this phone I like it a lot the speeds were very decent compare to my old nexus but today is been really bad here in las Vegas anyone else have this problem? It looks like LTE is far from coming Herr so I doubt is that

Sprint data speed is terrible in most areas... The common answer you will get from here is either:
1) switch to a different carrier.
2) wait for network vision.
Or
3) take your phone to sprint.
Welcome to Sprint...
The only true unlimited data network with no data cap.........since youll be spending half the month loading one web page

[Q] Great 3G speeds first couple days, now terrible

To start, I live in Boston, MA.
When I first got my Evo 4G LTE, it was getting about 1300~1500 kbps download and 700 kbps upload and 100 ms ping. The earliest tests in my Speedtest app show pretty commendable speeds.
Then, hmmm, about a week later those speeds have completely disappeared. Download is average about 90 to 120 kbps, and upload 100 kbps, about 750 to 1500 ms ping -- and these are tests performed at non-peak times such as 4AM. This has been consistent for about the last 10+ tests with different servers and locations around my local area in the city. Just to be sure, I also ran tests on my Wi-Fi connection, and the phone tested at my full 25Mb/s down / 3.5 Mb/s up cable internet.
My Evo is unlocked, and running the Charmeleon rom. I'm wondering if anyone else here has had a similar screeching halt to their wireless speed, either running stock Sense or a custom ROM. I'm wondering if the rom I'm using is capable of causing such slowdowns? Hmmm.
Before I try perhaps going back to the stock rom, any possible little tips would be appreciated! I'm getting sick of waiting 3, even 4 minutes for a very simple page to load in the browser.
Try updating your PRL. Then update your profile.
That usually gives me a bump up for a few days.

Mine fluctuates, the top three I took a few minutes apart. I also get a lot of random network not connected type errors.

Happened to me as we.l when I barely got the phone great speeds went to Mexico for vacations and came back and we back to sucky speeds, sometimes I do get good enough to watch YouTube tho, and my wife notice it as well, so our contracts our not over to late 2013, so I might end up seeking her iPhone and my evo and should be enough for etf, but I really like this phone the bigger battery and the ad card slot is good for me, the htc one s or x are great phones but limited to 9GB is not enough sometimes in my iPhone I end up using 25GB( iOS are bigger too tho), so idk I have a tmobile which I'm gonna get the gs3 to try out and might have it for myself till sprint gets LTE in las Vegas area and come back

I was on the KU campus and noticed the LTE flip on at about 12:15, right as I was gettin out of class.

Confirmed about 6.25 Mbps (both up & down) at 23rd & Iowa Tuesday evening. Good LTE coverage along 23rd from at least Iowa (probably further West) and drops off around Harper. :good:
Was surprised to see this as I figured they'd build out KC Metro a bit first before flipping the switch in the other recently announced cities. I'm still stuck at 3G while at work in Olathe and haven't seen any sign of LTE signal anywhere in Olathe west of I-35.
East of 35 in olathe I pull 20 down. Out in independence, 10 down. Inbetween those two places, no LTE.
Just FYI, I was in Spahr Engineering Library on campus when I got that result. Highest from the round of tests I rattled off was 15Mbps. A buddy of mine with the S3 got 26 Mbps in his apartment a mile or two off campus a couple days later. Anyone in the Lawrence area been able to pull an LTE signal since? I haven't unfortunately.
I was in Lawrence recently and 4 of the 5 towers I visited were live with LTE. A couple other towers had NV panels and radios but were not broadcasting LTE.
Please post this in one of the threads keeping track of LTE availability.

lol your getting better speeds than my lte here in dallas, 2mb max , sometimes early in the morning i can pull 6mbps
I live just outside of DC and have noticed the same thing the last few weeks. I don't even get LTE in my house anymore just 3g and I used to get upwards of 30mbps download speeds. Its almost as if something happened to the towers in a snow storm or something and Sprint hasn't fixed it yet. As of lately I am so fed up with the crappy Sprint data speeds I wish I could go with T-Mobile and let them buy out my contract but I signed a deal with the devil with the "one up" program and still owe about $620 on this phone. Also at my work there is LTE but only outside. I work on the 2nd floor right beside a window and the LTE always cuts off but if I threw my phone out the window I'd have about 10mbps download. Sprint is such a joke.

Well speak of the devil. Seems as if my data in my house has been restored for now. I still wish I had service at work.
