I'm asking if is in las Vegas problems or my account I updated profile and prl and same thing I got full bars and 3G (flashed a Rom so it tells me if I'm on 3g) you don't need to waste a post to just say that , really you have the much time to waste

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

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

Same here in Dallas great speeds at night/early morning crappy during day.

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.
I read how to toggle it off, but if I'm in an area that has no LTE yet maybe it doesn't matter. Or is it always scanning for LT? I have great battery so far without messing with the setting, but would it be a little better by shutting LTE off?
I switched mine to cdma only, but I haven't seen any difference in battery life with it off vs on. YMMV

I believe turning to cdma only turns off CDMA-eHRPD.
Sent from my EVO using Tapatalk 2
I will say I consistently get speeds 500 kbps slower when I go to CDMA only, so I'm leaving LTE on.
yes i also get much lower speeds when going to cdma only
My speeds are similar either way, except for my ping speed which is vastly better with CDMA only.

This is true....discussed a little over at s4gru about this....though still some unknown/unsolved things relating to eHRPD i think...
My speeds dropped with LTE off as well. Particularly upload speeds.
With CDMA only I was around 20-30 kbps up.
With LTE/CDMA it's twice that. Interesting to know! Thanks for the post.
just ran about 5 tests on lte and cdma only. no noticeable difference.
.22-.88, hovering around .32 on LTE
.25-.67, hovering around .38 on CDMA
ping of 260-280 on both
upload of .25-.5 on both
Central Austin (no NV improvements yet)
I tested this just now, and I don't see difference either.
my pic from another thread... all the 2000s are cdma only and the others are cdma/lte

I contacted HTC about it, and got this:
Thank you for contacting HTC about your new EVO 4G LTE! Congratulations on your new phone! Do you love it?! I’ve had mine for about a week now and I have to say, I’m in love! I do understand how important maximizing your battery life is in your phone and I’m happy to tell you that changing the mobile network from LTE/CDMA to CDMA only will have no effect on the battery life!

Anyone run one? Just found from my iPhone with Voda sim I get 2mbps, similar in the S3....My T-Mobile sim in the S3 on H+ is doing 224kbps
Guess which network I just signed up to so I could get the S3
Switch to Orange to see if you get better speeds.

Thanks FF, useful tip, it was actually showing TMobile Orange in the network when you pull down the notification bar. I changed that to just TMobile via a network search, ran another test and got 3835kbps, which is more like I'd expect.
Cheers again for the tip.

Only one problem, you're on Three
Yup sorted it on mine - I had to upload (and also deleted the account out of sync and logged back in) but you have to do 6 things - sync with PC, friend sync, etc etc before you get you extra 48gb

Any of you had the SGSII before the III and using the same carrier & location? I want to know has the speeds increased any or close to the same?

I cannot see it being much faster. They both have HSPA+ i believe.
Compared to my Desire HD however, WOW!

Some sites around ATL did go live but then I think they blocked them. Probably just testing. I remember reading that someone in Smyrna and Lawrenceville had picked it up. Hopefully they'll get Atlanta rolled out soon enough!!

I went on a business trip to ATL 2 weeks ago and got LTE for an hour before it cut back out. It showed up on my bill this month and it was kinda depressing knowing that it was probably the only time I'll ever see it -.-

LTE is currently set to be turned on by the end of the month in Atlanta.

Wherever you have 3g service you will have 4glte it may take a while for sprint to get to your area depending on where you are located
Has anyone noticed that since they on LTE here any over time the data speeds have slowed down. I have it here in tooele. At first i got 8-10 Mbps down now i get anywhere from .5 to 5 Mbps. It's that all past of the testing before full launch.

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.
