People will post if they want to - probably is quite because there has already been a lot of discussion of speeds.
Man, what the hell is going on with Sprint's 3g latley... I know they have alot of new members but still, it should not have this bad of an impact.
It must be there network. At my house using my airave I just got 2.5Mbps. At work where I have a good signal I was getting between .25 - .5Mbps.
If it was the radio I would probably get slow speeds on my airave as well. At least that is what I would assume.
These speeds are with the 3g proxy fix.....
I didn't see a big difference with the fix. But my ping increase 10th fold with the fix...meaning the connection was worse. So I went back to original. I doubt sprint put the proxies just to slow the phone down...they are competing with other providers in terms of 3g network speed.
I agree network must be having problems. My fiancees EVO scores same as my 3vo. At apartment we always get 700 kbs to 1.3 mbs. Lately we lucky to 100 kbs downloads

You realize your airave uses your home internet?
I get between 5-10mbs down and about 1-2 up on 4g. On 3g I get between 100kbs -1.5mbs down depending on the signal level. 100-500kbs upload. I live in huntsville and decatur al.

I mean unofficial by unannounced by sprint but shows on clearwire coverage map,
good speeds though right?
3G: 1.16Mbps / 0.60Mbps
4G: 4.56Mbps / 1.63Mbps
WiFi: 6.91Mbps / 3.43Mbps
These are all 4g (Charlotte, NC)
And the bottom four are 3g. They were horrible that whole day.
The one I just ran was 1075kbps and 363kbps which could still be better.
On another note, I noticed when I left 4g on, it didn't drain my battery the way I thought it would. I suppose it was since it was connected the whole time and not scanning for it.
Gotta love WiMax in these parts. I remember last year around this time when 8Mbps was my peak speed.

Sprints speeds are by far the worst in the industry. Their equipment sucks, their service sucks and they are so far behind it's a joke. I just did a speed test and got 475 kbps down and 550 kbps up. Thats a complete joke in Phoenix Az. I would test 4g but oh yeah, Sprint never gave it to us here like we were promised.

well I'm living in the areas with the upgrades nd what not, they have amazing 4G and 3G so I'd just wait, personally I think sprint is making it ahead of the game in the long run.. they already have future plans for lte-advance deployment after the LTE deployment..
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
What are you guys using to read those speeds???
Mopho....
The obvious reason that people complain is because not everyone is capable of getting those speeds via 4g must less 3g. If I could get 500 up and down on 3g on a regular basis I would probably be happy. As it stands I'm lucky to get a quarter of that.
Its great you have good speeds, but you should realize you are in the extreme minority when it comes to Sprint customers.

The problem with all this is that it's the future, and promises. The reason i switched to Sprint was 4g. But still don't have it. 2 years of waiting. They need to catch up now, or people will jump ship.

I envy all of you for being happy with those awful speeds. I left 8-10 mbps on tmo to come in and max out at 500kbps on sprint on a good day. I suck it up because this is the best phone ever.

As long as I get 1 mbps down I'm happy. I don't see the need to have 10-40mbps download speeds on a cell phone. I could care less about 4g, I rarely used it anyway. I've gotten as high as 2 mbps on sprints 3g and that was more than enough speed.

It all depends on where you're at, how good the Sprint coverage is, and how heavily taxed the network is.
Chicagoland USED to be fantastic, but it has suffered dramatically over the course of the last year.

arghhh I could so use this a month ago, when I was stuck in a hotel, with very bad WiFi.
I've been waiting for 4g in Memphis ever since I got the original Evo. I'm turning it on now to test but I live out in the Wolfchase area so we'll see.
Damn, nothing at my house but good to know we are finally getting some in town. The Sprint tower by my house gives me great 3g with 2600kbps down and 1300kbps up so I won't need the 4g here but when I'm downtown I will be cranking it out.
Since we are flexing 4G muscle...
I had it over new years and at the hotel on the way back and it was awesome. New years eve I passed out with it on and a new battery in, and when I woke up it had stayed connected the whole time and I still had a full battery. Usually I have to stand outside with my phone facing a certain direction before I can get it, yet my evo 4g was able to connect in places where my 3d doesn't even try to.

Fellow midtowner! I've been able to get as far as the main library before losing 4G when I tried on my Evo 4G last year, but I really don't use it all that much even when it is available.
Just tried it, got 2877kbps/118kbps. It'd probably be faster out in my driveway

theres 4g coverage in La Crosse, WI.
I get about 1-2mbps down and about 1mbps up from my house where I have Low to almost no signal (it drops sometimes). About 100ms ping to any mainland server.
There are however a few settings in the ##DATA# menu for wimax, to decrease the drop threshold, and speed up the reconnection process if it does drop. I forget where the thread went though lol

The network vision towers (probably just went local for the OP) most likely are carrying Wimax until the agreement with Clear expires.

Congrats on being the 3rd major Tennessee city with wimax. Here in Knoxville wimax is still spotty but fast when with good signal. Nashville seems to have decent coverage, but if we could all have the speed and coverage that Atlanta enjoys, no one would be *****ing about not having LTE.
So has anyone noticed that there is no 4g toggle. The only thing I could find was network types. I switched mine to cdma only. How would this affect battery life? Discussion on the LTE radio. Go.

There is a toggle it is for CDMA only or LTE/CDMA.

Sent from my EVO using xda premium
@shellguy - Based on what the OP stated they did notice that you can switch modes. They're referring to there being a toggle like there was on the 4G and 3D.
@OP - You are correct that is the only way to "disable" LTE. It's been this way on all LTE phones though as LTE is meant to stay on once it gets going and only switch back to EVDO if there is no signal unlike WiMax which was meant to suplliment EVDO the same as WiFi does. LTE will have better signal penetration and coverage because of the frequencies it will be on so once you get LTE you can just leave it on unless you want to squeeze every ounce of juice out of your battery. Also since the LTE radio is built into the SOC you don't have to turn on a seperate radio which is what that toggle on the 4G and 3D is doing. By default leaving it on will give lower power drain when compared to WiMax but if you do toggle to just CDMA mode it will give even less power drain because it is no longer searching for an LTE signal periodically. Hope that answers your question.
So basically there is no 4G lte widget?

im in south florida, a huge market, and sometimes in the middle of the day i cant get more than .15 kbps. absolutely atrocious. saw pictures of NV towers starting to pop up in south Miami.
In Philly with my OG Evo yesterday I was getting 1.7 mbps down, ~1 mpbs up on 3G. Activated my LTEVO today and was getting between 20 kpbs - 150 kbps down and 200-500 kbps up for a few hours. Pathetic. I couldn't load Google Maps or anything. Called Sprint to report it and got cut off during the call (never had time to call back). They said they were about to send an update to my phone. Guess that didn't happen. I'm getting around 500-600 kpbs down now, still 1/3rd the speed of 3G on my OG Evo.
Maybe I should have held off the upgrade...

Could be that the network is extremely congested in the big city that you are in.
Make sure you have LTE enabled on your account. You MIGHT need a new SIM but I doubt it.

If you didn't swap out your SIM card that is your problem. Swap it out and make sure you are on the lte unlimited this should fix your problem.
Once AT&T gets LTE to our area, I'll let ya know It ends 55 miles south of me in Healdsburg. We have LTE here, but from Verizon, U.S. Cellular and Metro PCS. That said, I did get a chance to test it on our monthly Costco run to Santa Rosa, and maxed out at 46 down and 22 up.
At my home in Long Beach, I average 13d, 3-4u
At work in Compton, I average 23-30d, 10-15u - with the highest download being 41 (in Compton)
In Youngstown, Ohio, a small market between Cleveland & Pittsburgh, we just got LTE, but it's on limited towers. I have to go 2 streets down from my house to even get my phone to stay on LTE. Here are my speeds when on, though. Pretty good, Id say!
