Yea, I know, but he supposedly checked a map, though when I call sprint they said no lte at all in Georgia, but next guy said last Friday, then guy today said its been activated... What's the real answer!

Most likely they don't know. Take their answers with a grain of salt.

LTE first market countdown - two weeks?

Place your bets!
I am hoping to see 4G LTE turned on in my launch-city the first week of July! When do you think it will enable?
Hopefully soon for Washington DC!I'm getting 4G withdraws! I used to get 10 mbps download on Wimax now I'm getting 1 mbps if I'm lucky...

LTE launches July 15.
Yep, so my prediction on the 26th was about right! (Except the "first week of July" part) :victory:
like everyone else, im moving to texas.
any news on miami getting this 4g???
so from what i understand on the leaked LTE maps, the "KC deployment area" includes Wichita, and is more of a Kansas area. is this true?
Anybody know if its coming to the bay area soon?

Meant to quote not thank...but you're paying for "premium data". Everyone that has a smartphone is paying the extra $10. 4g isn't a factor anymore. Sprint realized that a long time ago

I can understand your pain, but everyone knew it would be a while before lte was turned on so everyone could have waited to make a purchase later

Lte in Dallas.

IM having a hard time connecting to lte. I have the Evo 4g lte and I can not connect. I live in Dallas off of Frankford and marsh. I have the latest update and constantly updating my prl and profile. I turn lte/cdma to cdma only....and vise versa....I reboot my phone. But nothing. This is my first post that I can remember....in sometime if at all....so if it is in the wrong spot IM sorry.....I just don't went to have an lte phone with no lte. Thanks in advanced

There is some other info to compare with in other threads, check those out.
The short answer, in my opinion, is that the coverage maps are wrong (or not _yet_ accurate). I live and work in areas that should have LTE, but I never see my phone switch to it.

I agree with you on this one. I was in Lewisville, just north of 121 on Friday and had LTE but lost it on my drive home somewhere in Frisco. I have not seen it come back since then and the coverage map says I should have it at home and at work but I never see it come on. I think they only have a few towers up at the moment. I saw some techs working on a tower this morning on my way to work and I couldn't see the vehicle, but was hoping it was Sprint!
DFW Mid-cities
Is anyone able to get LTE inside buildings? I used to get WIMAX 4G on my OG EVO at my desk at work near 360 in Arlington and cannot get LTE on the new EVO. Maps say it's covered there. I can get it outside my house in Colleyville, but not inside just like WIMAX was. LTE will be useless to me if I cannot get it inside buildings. Frustrating. Thanks for any suggestions.
Lte was not launched in the first deployment at 100 percent due to high demand. Please check out s4gru.com if you have any questions. Theu have the best info.

A buddy of mine that used to work with phones went into my Evo lte via the ## codes and said I had old lte tables and needed to reactivate.the.phone now that the lte is on....because it wasn't activated when lte was on that's why it's not working. I went to a sprint store. Off of Macarthur and 635 in Irving...and told the chick this....she said it's a lie...just that lte isn't working. Should I try to reactivate ...how do I do that

LTE Officially Coming to Los Angeles!!!!!

I've been getting a lot of dropped calls the past couple days so I called Sprint to see what the problem was. Long story short, 2 different people told me that they are working on the Network Vision project here in Los Angeles and have started working on LTE coverage for the area!

lmao! you aren't getting crap! lmao! There is NO sprint LTE network. lmao! how many times do I have to say that? Also, WHO ONE EARTH WOULD BELIEVE A 10 DOLLAR A HOUR REP?! LMAO! HE'LL tell you that you're going to win a million dollars if you shut up. lmao!
BTW, GO AHEAD AND CALL THEM AGAIN AND GIVE THEM SOME FAKE CITY! THEN ASK, ARE YOU WORKING ON THIS IN MY CITY!? GUESS WHAT THEY'LL DO! lol. They'll lie to you and say, "oh yeah, we're working on it right now" LMAO!
I can see already that this is going to be a dead end. OP, congrats. I'm waiting on it myself.

LTE in NYC in October for sure

I called sprint to complain about network issues and was told that they are upgrading the towers. He said it should be done on Oct 17th. So I guess that confirms it for me

>I called Sprint
They probably lied to you.
What network issues? The network has been behaving itself as of late. Then again I'm over by 30 Rock so we get decent connectivity/bandwidth.

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. -_-

They also said progress was beginning to be held up and delayed as the roll out continues. I hope to God they stay on schedule so I can dump this Verizon 4G jet pack.

And where do you think 30 Rock is? Smack dab in the middle of Manhattan.
FYI.. Yesterday while having my lunch outside enjoying the not so nice humidity I noticed the 4G icon pop up a couple times briefly. Looks like things should be lighting up soon.

Yup. Though with the WIMAX rollout certain sections of Jersey got it first. Go figure. To the gentleman from Boston. This is a NYC thread we really don't care about Boston (unless the Red Sox lose a game).

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.

Sprint to fire up more LTE cites

Well, here's the press release saying where Sprint is going with the LTE.

I really wish it would come to my area, it kinda sucks having in markets on either side of where I live, but getting left out in the cold.

If that's the case, it's coming to Birmingham, AL soon. Having said that, Birmingham never had Wimax officially released, although some areas do have Wimax coverage.

Hopefully this means they'll keep building it out here though.

I'm guessing this is a joke. Ask the folks in Beaumont, TX that have had eHRPD for several months now and their LTE build won't even start until next year. So I guess technically you are correct, LTE is coming everywhere. The question is just when..
Nope, they will only offer in that town and only to 7 of the 10 people there. Lol of course they will build it out! :banghead:

Armpit Oklahoma, well I suppose cows/farmers/and hillbillies need better coverage.... Dear sprint, even Dan Hesse said the 405 area connection and coverage was one of the worst experiences he'd encountered on sprint....please build here. Thank you.

Don't get too exited. Sprints LTE is a joke. I live in Dallas where they first rolled out LTE and I got the HTC Evo 4G LTE on day one. Ever since they turned on LTE here in June I think I've had a LTE signal for a total of 20min. I talked to a sprint rep recently and was told that Sprint won't truly be finished with the Dallas LTE until sometime in 2013. Each city they do a roll out just means they started in that city(1 LTE tower)

Have you tried the LTE on another device? I thought it was a joke as well until I saw the real network with a phone that doesn't have LTE connectivity issues.
