Throtteld? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy Note I717

I'm in a hspa+ area and I'm getting about 1 down and like .1 up. It sounds like I'm getting throttled but I'm not using unlimited and I don't even use half of my 2gb plan. Any ideas on why this is happening?

Throttled speeds are about
.16 down
Typically unaffected upload
Tiered plans are not throttled.
At the rate people are posting this problem today I am going to guess that att is having natiinwide issues today

You are not being throttled. Probably tower issue in your area.

Does Verizon throttle unlimited data plans?

I was wondering if Verizon throttles because the past 2 days my 4g has been lagging big time in Houston. Was just wondering if I was being throttled or if 4g is under going some sort of maintenance.

I'm in the same boat. My 4G data has been choking a lot, with the up arrow hanging sometimes. But then, I have used only 2.5gigs so far 17 days into my billing cycle, so I'm not sure if thats the reason.
Haven't heard of anyone on LTE being throttled, not even the guys using upwards of 20gigs. It's probably maintenance.
I don't think verizon is throttling yet. But they will as more ppl get LTE capable phones & bandwidth is strained. And ppl with grandfathered unlimited plans will be throttled first :/

Anybody else experiencing 4g lag in Houston?

Yes, in fact there's a thread right below yours.
(Not anymore, since I'm bumping yours ) it's the [Q] 4G issue thread

It sucks cause i've been bragging to my friend how fast Verizons lte is and he asks to see my phone and starts to laugh cause nothing would finish loading. Don't you hate when that happens?

I've been getting incredibly slow speeds on LTE in Knoxville. I'm talking about 2mb/s...

Airave use!!

Can I still use my airave even thoo I cancelled the number for it
Sent from my PG86100 using XDA App
seriously? the airave has to be subdivision...just like everything else.
The answer is no since the air rave kit has to be on an active line of service on your sprint account just like a cell phone.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Why would you cancel the number?....
It's 4.99 a month for the service but you can get that fee waived if you call in to retentions and complain/threaten to cancel. Either way it's worth having if your coverage sucks because they work really well.
Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
Yea its cuz I moved to a different apartment and I get full bars on everything even 4g, So I don't really need the airave no more, but wanted to know if I actually needed the other line to be able to use the airave LOL but now I know thanks ppl

4G 411?

So today my phone got shut off cause I forgot pay bill n I don't have no texting no 3g data no calling but funny thing is my 4G still works... So my question is... Is sprints 4G not secured?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Just my guess but clearwire runs sprints 4g. So they prolly cant cut you from that. They can only cut you from what they own. Just my guess.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
So you have no 3G data or texting but have 4G data?
Yes dope uh lol
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Actually yes. That's pretty legit. Haha. Can you still text, do MMS and all that ****?
From data apps such as google voice lets u keep your sprint number. I can't figure out there calling yet though..
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
That's pretty awesome. Yeah, google+ is confusing I don't even really know how to use it. haha. I just kinda bumble through.
Lmfao I'm trying out viber its both calling and text
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Too bad I don't have 4G in my area, guess I gotta go old school and just pay my bill. LOL.
Lmfao I'm paying it tomorrow hopefully lol I live off 3g but always great to know were set if sprint wants be asses lol. Off topic aren't u developer? Anything in works for ics port?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Dude I'm so far from a Dev. Haha. I just kinda bumble through, ask some questions, and try to figure out **** and wind up back where I started twice as pissed and three times as confused. Haha. I don't think an ICS port will be out til ICS actually comes out. Once it hits, maybe. But we gotta see when it drops.
Lmfao. I used to be that way. Now ik some **** but seems like **** moving even faster lately. Like the droid razr I love the droids n even loved the razr when I had one lol but phone isn't even a comparison to the photon so its such a shame they wasted a good name on a crappy model. I downloaded the animation though lol its hella dope! Anyways back to 4G shyt... Viber only makes calls to other ppl with viber installed on there phones. Anyone know a free calling app?

If you have google voice try groove ip. It allows calls all over data.

Chicago LTE

Has anyone lost their LTE in the Chicago land area in the last few days? I was running fine. No problems. Then two days ago I lost late coverage and haven't gotten it back since

I've been ok but you may want to pinpoint your location as the Chicagoland area is quite large....
Carol stream to be exact. Nothing has change that I'm aware of. Same rom same apn. Idk what's going on but I miss my lte

I'm in the city (Hyde Park) and have noticed that a couple of areas where I usually have strong 4G I only have 3G. In general, though, I haven't noticed any dramatic changes.
I have talked to someone from burr ridge and they have no issues. 20 down still. Hmmmmm

Have you tried to contact AT&T to see if there are service issues in your area?

I'm downtown right now. Just pulled 15 down and 6.5 up on LTE.
I wish I knew how to check what frequency bands I'm using
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using xda premium
How much data have you used?
Go over 5GB with your "unlimited" plan and your bumped down to WAP speeds on AT&T.
Well it just reset on the 21st and I am at about 1GB. Also I just got about 30sec of late after hanging up a phone call. Just to be sure H is LTE on aosp/aokp right?

I dont think H means LTE.
H+ is for HPSA+ which is 4g (really it is 3.5g)
It should say LTE.
No..on aosp it's displayed as
H is hspa+
4g is lte

It could be network upgrades.
I have been having the same issue here in Salt Lake. The Sprint store tells me it is tower upgrades in my area. I take that with a grain or 2000 of salt but it may be true.
Carrier?
On AT&T you can have signal drop if you use a non 4g apn in a 4g area.
You can put your location in here, https://network.sprint.com/ and see if there's any upgrades in the next 6 months. It's entirely possible.
Yeah I'm on sprint... I'm about to go to a sprint store and hopefully they get me a new one and it's better cause I can't even enjoy my phone like this... My galaxy s 2 didn't have this problem so idk if it's the network
