No go in south joco, but 3g is slower than usual if that's possible.

No luck next to Sprint campus. Perhaps you luckily connected at a time where they were testing something on the towers. They aren't going officially live until the later July correct?
July 15th is the date...I could see them slowly activating the towers and pushing prl updated to phone to bring them on the network slowly to prevent it from being initially bogged down

I remember a guy say here there was 4G here near downtown area so I turned on 4G a while back & got no bars on 4G with constant disconnections! I live in midtown & make a mistake & turned on 4G recently & was getting a connection. Sprint must really be working on the 4G because now I get connection all over midtown! The connection is stronger outside…… Here is the speedtest from inside house to outside! Your thoughts……

That's awesome! Now I want 4G.
Non in chattanooga.
None in Toledo, OH.
I think sprint is working on it! There used to be no 4G near me but now I get it all over midtown & the connection outside is EXTREMELY strong & FAST!

arghhh I could so use this a month ago, when I was stuck in a hotel, with very bad WiFi.
I've been waiting for 4g in Memphis ever since I got the original Evo. I'm turning it on now to test but I live out in the Wolfchase area so we'll see.
Damn, nothing at my house but good to know we are finally getting some in town. The Sprint tower by my house gives me great 3g with 2600kbps down and 1300kbps up so I won't need the 4g here but when I'm downtown I will be cranking it out.
Since we are flexing 4G muscle...
I had it over new years and at the hotel on the way back and it was awesome. New years eve I passed out with it on and a new battery in, and when I woke up it had stayed connected the whole time and I still had a full battery. Usually I have to stand outside with my phone facing a certain direction before I can get it, yet my evo 4g was able to connect in places where my 3d doesn't even try to.

Fellow midtowner! I've been able to get as far as the main library before losing 4G when I tried on my Evo 4G last year, but I really don't use it all that much even when it is available.
Just tried it, got 2877kbps/118kbps. It'd probably be faster out in my driveway

You live in midtown too bro? When I had it on earlier today, it went nearly all the way to Christian Brothers University until disconnected! I'm glad I'm finally getting to use it, I tried to go back to 3G & it's impossible bro! I went from almost 3mb+ down/1.5mb+ up down to like 250kb down/90kb up SMH! The 3G in midtown where I am is ridiculous bro, nearly impossible to use until it's late night round 1! WTF

Sounds like u will be one of the city's that will have 4g wimax 3g upgrade and 4g lte becuase all 4g new towers have that set on my city has that on the new towers they put up last year in December 2011

Sent from my PG86100 using xda premium
theres 4g coverage in La Crosse, WI.
I get about 1-2mbps down and about 1mbps up from my house where I have Low to almost no signal (it drops sometimes). About 100ms ping to any mainland server.
There are however a few settings in the ##DATA# menu for wimax, to decrease the drop threshold, and speed up the reconnection process if it does drop. I forget where the thread went though lol

The network vision towers (probably just went local for the OP) most likely are carrying Wimax until the agreement with Clear expires.
I'm blindly assuming here.

Congrats on being the 3rd major Tennessee city with wimax. Here in Knoxville wimax is still spotty but fast when with good signal. Nashville seems to have decent coverage, but if we could all have the speed and coverage that Atlanta enjoys, no one would be *****ing about not having LTE.

I remember working in Philly when the EVO 4G launched on the WiMAX network and when signal was stable it was impressive (compared to 3G anyway). I cannot wait.
I picked up a 4G signal briefly in Huntley,IL. (not too far from Huntley) I was driving and streaming pandora.
I did not get to do a speed test, but I did do a screen shot. Signal was gone as fast as it came on.

I was in huntley (just north of 90 on 47) last saturday, and no lte. This must be very recent.
I hope we start getting it within the next month or so. I'm pretty tired of these terrible 3G speeds.
I'm from Rockford illinois and we officially have no lte yet but i was told we will soon . Not holding my breath on that one:/.

Yeah exactly.. my guess is they were still just testing it
No LTE from West Chicago to Lombard
My EVO is getting lonely without his friend LTE!
If we look at sprint track record these could actually be the speeds. There slow in about every network 3g or 4g wimax when compared to the others. The 3g I's slower than some pre paid tracphones i done seen surf the internet my goddness. I had to tuck my evo in my pocket when someone asked me to look up something it took a while so i just said my battery died and everyone said i thought you're phone last all day .My friend trac phone looked it up in seconds and he's on edge network ugh.

Be patient, they were probably testing. It isn't live yet and won't be for a while. Especially in and around the city, since they're moving outside-in. Check the link I posted. If Sprint waits for 50% site conversion, then expected launch would be September. Which would mean we probably won't see anything until August at the earliest. This could be sooner if they decide to start rolling out before 50%
Can this be true this guy @insidesprintnow posted this on his twiter and lately my sprint reception has been horrible can this be why ?

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
I haven't seen LTE or 4G on my phone once. This is really odd because I live blocks from the KC sprint campus. I have even driven into their parking lot and sitting there got only 3G still.
I know this has to be on my end because there's no way that in their own campus in their main center they don't have a tower running it since this was the first location to receive LTE. Is this something that could be dependent on the ROM i'm using. I'm running viper 1.21 which others have said they get LTE with so I don't think it's that.
Do I need to possibly flash a new radio? Is there something else going on?
Yeah, ur not in an LTE area. Either that or Idk find someone with an EVO and see if they get LTE in the same spot.

I haven't tried toggling to CDMA and then back to LTE, I'll give that a go.
I know for sure I'm in an LTE area because KC is the first and I live directly next to their huge campus here. I have a few friends who work for them, actually everyone in this town has worked for them at one point or another, lol. And they said we do have it in this area now.

correct. I always say KC because anyone outside of this area doesn't know OP. I live a just a couple blocks from that campus. I thought this was the first area scheduled for the roll out. At least I know why I haven't seen it yet. thank you.

i gave it a go and no LTE yet, so I think erichj must be right and the rollout is not complete.
Strange that they wouldn't start with their own campus. But I guess I was just spoiled by t-mobiles insanely fast network speeds before switch to sprint. Kinda a bad decision on my part but I thought I wanted an Iphone, until I had it a couple days and took back that turd to get another android phone. By that point I was stuck in to a sprint contract with dial-up speed.

I was on the Sprint campus tonight and had to reboot my phone to get it to pick up 4g. Sometimes that's the only thing that will work . Network is only about 40% build out around the KC market right now.

Iive up north of the river by the airport and I only saw the 4g icon once while eating a chicken fried steak at corner cafe in Riverside. I only had it long enough to download speedtest.net app and it reported 8M download and 8M upload. Pretty good but then it switched to 3g again

I live in Aurora, CO and I have not LTE here. I'm a truck driver and get LTE towards Brighton Fort Lupton areas and sometimes Greeley. Don't know why they start deploying it in the bigger cities first.
At least it seems like they're starting to move on it.
You guys really need to donate a couple dollars to s4gru.com to get donor status. They have some insider guys in sprint with lots of sprint rollout updates.
