So I don't know about anyone else but I downloaded and ran speed test on my Amaze but I couldn't even get a full megabit per second. Angular experiencing this? Is it just the app? Or is it my phone?
I get around 4mb, varries on where you are try moving closer to a 4G cell tower

Here are a few speedtests taken with my Amaze (T-mobile) in the Jersey City, NJ area
Wasn't me!! I didn't do it!
I was in a 4g city yesterday and got 250kbps. at home way out in the country I was getting my normal 1mbps. Today I am in Santa Barbara, CA and am getting 13.7mbps!! Wow! seems very erratic.
I had a question does sim card affect this too? I'm using a dang old sim card it doesn't work with the wifi calling on the amaze I was wondering how to go about getting a new sim card... I have two but they were for other upgrades not my phones so i dunno how to set this up exactly can I use those sim cards or?

You didn't get a new sim with your phone?? You can always call tmobile or go into one of their stores and get the newest card. Just tell them your old one is worn out. You should have gotten a new one though in the upgrade box...I did. Did you find the user manual in that little compartment in the top of the box? That is where the new sim card is as well. Mine didn't work with the old card so I put the new one in, called tmobile and activated it. everything works now!
Well I didn't buy the phone new through tmobile hence the not getting a new sim card but okay thanks I'll have to do that

Didn't either dude, but the problem is the dang throttle, but I'm extreamly happy with T-Mobiles 4G. Best out of all IMO, as my friends on AT&T are constently looking for Wi-Fi or turning off sync, then my friend who has a HTC Evo 3D is pissed because his 3G speeds are around 1Mbps and his 4G WiMax is around 5Mbps. And now Sprints switching to LTE Really lame, only one I haven't heard about is Verizon, but I know they have data caps, so I'm pretty stoked to be on T-Mobile.
My friends Thunderbolt averages about 20 mbps If not more.

I get throttled during busy times, my data will be almost unusable around 5 pm yet my wives data still works just fine. I use about 8 gb a month and she only uses about 1.5-2 gb a month. Our 4g here is no where near 30 mbps, I get closer to 6-7 when its available (which isn't very often)

No 4g in my area yet, and here we have a monumental system overload so most of the time 3g is slower than dialup!

Yea, ping is always weird. I don't quite understand how 4g works really as far as towers go. I live in Vancouver WA and I usually connect to somewhere in Kansas, usually Wichita. I ping that at around 150Ms. Kinda crazy. If anyone had anymore info on this I would love to learn about it. Like why I'm connecting to a server in Wichita, when I live in Vancouver.
Also, I work for Comcast and we have 100mbps package but only 10 up. Frontier (Verizon) has a maximum 35mbps upload though, which is a hard sell. Lol. That's the only thing frontier has over Comcast though. ;-)

Sometimes companies tell you what you want to hear to silence you. Are they working on towers? Yes. Will it roll out in October for NYC? Probably not.
Just like my ISP telling me I'm having slow speeds because of a "regional Internet problem" with THE internet. Yeah right. -_-

DFW
With the launch of LTE, DFW was on the list of having LTE. Phone never connected to LTE. After serveral phone calls, I was told the same thing, that the networks where being upgraded and scheduled to be completed in December. I see LTE every now and then now, but not long enough to get any use out of it. Speed Test showed it to be slower than 3G when I was able to connect. I got credit for 4 months (AUG -NOV) until LTE is fully up and running.

how do you know that it will be live in 2 weeks?
If Sprint gave you an exact date, and especially from a representative over the phone, they're definitely lying to you.
While I seriously doubt that's the date, I sure hope it is. I am sick of slower than dialup speeds on 3G and constant weak signal.
NYC and several other major cities have been announced to go live within the next several months, which means NYC can get it earlier than scheduled.....Finally able to use phone to the fullest
Has anyone in the NYC area gotten LTE signals yet? Wonder if they will test it before going live.

My speeds are pretty much not even LTE. In fact I was getting just as good speeds with my non-LTE Atrix 4g. From my bedroom I get about 1mbps and the upload...well if it registers at all I get 300kbps. Admittedly I get terrible terrible reception here even on my old phone. At my grandmas house where I get 3-4 bars I got up to 8mbps per second on one or two tests but often it was around 3mbps. The upload there never got above 600-700kbps. I live in Orange County, CA so maybe there are so many users that that's just as fast as we get...or maybe it's this phone. I dunno yet. Gonna try it at work(Disneyland) tomorrow and see how it works.
I attached a txt file with my tests...on most of them it says HSDPA, dunno what that even means.

But we do have LTE, it says on the coverage tracker that we do and my dad has the HTC One X and he gets LTE. Now that you mention it though it says 4G at the bar at the top of the screen and not LTE. Is it supposed to say LTE?
Yes it does say it right under the 4G. Go back and look at some of the screen shots. If you are both on At&t you should go to the store because you should have it also.

I don't know the AT&T network but on Rogers, Bell & Telus in Canada you need to specify an LTE APN. The HSPA/+ APN you have configured by default with your SIM probably won't support or recognize LTE service speeds, and even my 'LTE network' microSIM didn't import this automatically, I had to manually input the APN.
33/1.9 I wonder what's up with my upload speed.
