hopefully it is in a lower bit of spectrum. I don't know how exciting "now you can fail to get an LTE signal indoors too" would really be.
Nope its the same 2.5 ghz spectrum

Ugh, unless they have towers galore, thats still going to be a problem.
For eveyone except me I guess.
I seem to have their best coverage thank goodness. But still...
Probably no changes for at least 5+ years down the road but hopefully it will give us better usage. I mean I'm in Austin Texas wich is a very tech city and my service really sucks. I mean I have gotten as good as a 9mbps speed test on 4G but the signal is soooo freaking hit and miss. 4G goes in and out so I'm looking foward to anything that means better signal

I know no one has the answer..but we're all wondering if it will work on wimax phones somehow. Bleh..it will take at least two years to come around my city anyway. Add +2 yrs for each bankruptcy on the way.

When I had the HTC Hero I was hitting that upload at peak & averaging 800Kbps upload. My Downloads were around 2.2Mbps down.
Those are Rev. A speeds. Glad to see that they're returning.

wow it couldn't be more opposite for me in central Florida. I work for AT&T installing the cell equipment and I have Sprint. No wonder so many Sprint users are complaining about 3g speeds.
Average 3g in Houston, TX :
Taken on the way home from work... tonight.
But, yeah, 3g is usually between 1&2..
(Not really that impressive, IMHO.)
<<work in progress>>
Wifi at home, however, is pretty ok in my book....
(and that's not even the best connection speed).
<<work in progress>>
Also, current 4g, while I'm here...

Ehh dunno bout all this. They gonna announce that here's the first 4t lte phone on sprint but you'll have to wait till 3rd qtr to get it? Late 3rd qtr at that according to the last sprint exec comments on when lte phone will hit sprint.

If it does come to sprint with lte would it support Wimax as well? Has anyone heard anything about lte phones also having Wimax?
On another note... Is lte on the 800Mhz band? I thought I seen somewhere that it was. If it is on 800Mhz, will the Evo 3D be able to get it since the 3D is compatible with 800Mhz or would it be completely different since its lte?

No lte will not be on 800mhz band till much later after they fully shut off Nextel users to the new cdma ptt.
As for dual Wimax/lte I doubt it as they'd of said that instead of just first lte phone. I'd imagine only way you see dual is from say HTC using the same boards in a sense we do now but have the new snapdragon chipsets as they have lte built into the die itself....suppose to be huge battery saving having it built directly there too.

It's nice to see the Gnexus will be on sprint, but really? Just releasing a phone that's already 6 months old? They could improve the hardware, but that would be unlikely. I don't even think they will clock the processor at 1.5Ghz. Remember what happened with the Nexus S 4G? It'll probably be like that.
I hope they released some other phones with it like an Evo LTE or some other LTE phone with beast specs.

Ok, but when they do start using the 800Mhz band will the Evo 3D be able to use it?
Not that interested in this announcement.
With LTE coming this year to the Atlanta area and no firm launch date, I will be more focused on as yet unannounced quad core LTE devices announced in the summer.
The larger screen would be great but only a 1.5 MHZ processor. Not a true upgrade.

Ok. That's what I was afraid of... So, will there ever be a benefit to us that the 3D can run on the 800Mhz? I have been wondering this for a while. Also, I haven't heard anything about revb lately. Is that still going live with the multinode network centers?

Not a slight bit interested in this. People are going to upgrade to a phone that will be left behind when all the quad core LTE devices drop. :/ I have to agree with the guy commenting about the Quad cores. Think I'll wait until then.

The newer devices will NOT have tri-band radios. It will be one or the other (CDMA/LTE or CDMA/WiMAX). Sprint announced that themselves.
+1 - Exactly current Sprint phones will NOT support LTE, and new LTE phones will not be comp with the WiMax network... However CLEAR will offer several WiMAX/LTE Devices when the LTE Tower Radio Swap begins... Sprint will be using Clearwires LTE for the majority of Q3 12 thru 2013 when they begin to sell and push LTE, then maybe will begin the PSB Band push to LTE once the Nextel Network is completely closed down. I don't see any rapid movement by sprint to push lightsquared into there realm of things in fact Sprint just infused Clearwire with more money to keep service till 2016 .. so I think it is really slow going from here with sprint and its own LTE ... Our 4G service will be on CLEAR for some time to come...

Yeah a 1.5 *MHZ* dual core processor isn't a upgrade for anyone really. I like my phones to be in the GHZ stages.

The 800mhz radio in the 3D will be used once they enable the multimode base stations in the new towers.
But it will be CDMA stuff in the 800 band, not WiMax or LTE.
At least thats what i have understood it to be from the stuff i have read..

Yeah there are 3G to 4G hand offs which your mom probably had when she was no longer in a 4G area.
First rule of LTE in general is that it doesn't compare with anything out right now except maybe T-mobile's 42mbps hspa+.

You really should think about what you say before you look like an ass. Right now it looks like you have a case of foot in mouth disease.
As the poster above me pointed out he is clearly only getting 3G.
@poster just because you have 4G turned on does not mean you are getting 4G your phone needs to pick up the 4G signal to go into 4G mode.
This has to be the most entertaining thread of the day.

Could it be that he was really on Verizon's LTE in a really poor Verizon LTE coverage area...and right before he took the screen shot his phone dropped to 3G because of the bad LTE signal ?
Possible? Very Unlikely ?

I live in Midtown right now bro off Jefferson & Bellevue. How's your sprint service out there lol?
The LTEVO says hello!
I have a Sprint tower about 500 yards from my house and I get incredible 3g speeds from it. Usually in the range of 2mb down and 1.5mb up. I must be the only one on Sprint. The bad part is as soon as I leave the area it drops to crap speeds again. Were you able to connect to wimax in your area. I know Sprint turned on a couple of wimax towers in midtown and was able to connect a couple of times when I was in the area with my Evo 3D. Can't wait to get LTE. My brother in law was visiting with his new Verizon Raxer LTE and we did a speed test at my house and he got 28mb down and 19mb up on average after several tests. I hope sprint deploys in Memphis ahead of schedule.
