I'm around the same area. Still no LTE here, but I do get it further east in the Richardson area. My understanding is that this is just part of the process as Sprint rolls out LTE across DFW. I can't find a link to the article, but I read that it should be mostly completed around here by the end of August, early September. I'll look around for the article.

Sprint's LTE is at 10% as of right now. It's "supposed" to be completed by the end of the year...says a sprint rep.

I go all over the dfw area for work. It's very spotty to say the least. What's crazy is the fastest 4g I've experienced was about 4 miles west of Gainesville.

Where is the Dallas thread. I searched and did not find it. I had lte shortly off of 131 and MacArthur near lewsville. Around midnight or so. Showed up as 4g. It was.nice. but oh well. Wonder if I can get some sort of credit for not being able to use my phones lte. If not oh well

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

Well Flint is in the center of MI and LTE is now in detroit and it has worked it's way up. Now it is up to Fenton which is only 10 - 15 minutes south of me. That has all happened since I joined AT&T a few months ago. Hopefully I will have it before the year is out as projected.

Nope but I don't check much through the city too much, as I'm driving.
Still waiting...
but fear not, Sprint sent me a flyer touting coverage. :silly:
Good to know, hope you see it soon. How about non-lte data speeds?

I'm mostly on WIFI. When on 3G, it's not horrible but could certainly be better.
IIRC, NoVa ~ 1M down last check indoors. MD, using Baltimore server, was lower.
Cool thanks for the info.

No problem.
Really the coverage areas are a wildcard. Yeehaw.
Good luck.
When coverage isn't the best just roam haha using a force roam mod believe sprint 3g could be better and LTE is pretty dang good when it comes to wherever you are

Generally Sprint's coverage is pretty good. From my experience, where I live in Coastal NC, it's as good at AT&T or even better. Their coverage is getting better all the time too. Google "network vision" and you can read about it. They are doing a TON to upgrade their current towers to enhance 3g speeds and voice capabilities as well as building new towers all the time. From my experiences the new 3G speeds they are upgrading to is faster than Verizon's 3G speeds.
You can check out sprint.com/network to see some of the upgrades they are doing to the towers in your area.
Was just heading to oak park mall and noticed I have 4G LTE. I figured it was a fluke but here's my speed test results.

Yeah I'm using stock ROM rooted with stock modem. I'm pretty sure T-Mobile is using 1900mhz for LTE and ATT uses 1700. Really digging the late though. Download and upload isn't a big concern but the ping has dropped to about half of what it was. Very happy with T-Mobile. I think the lte will spread quickly like their 4G did.

T-Mobile doesn't use 1900Mhz for LTE, only AWS 1700Mhz.
Regardless the i717 doesn't support LTE over 1900Mhz.

Oh wow this is awesome!!!! Could you please get into your ServiceMode (dial *#0011#) and take a screenshot of your ServiceMode?
Did you change any of your APN settings in order to access LTE or you're running default epc.tmobile.com ?
Thanks!
I'll post a picture of it in service mode around 5pm. I'm at work right now and LTE isnt coming through the building very well. Also to answer your APN question I am indeed running the stock epc.tmobile.com. also thanks for clearing up the frequency bands ok both networks I wasn't quite sure.

I like the techie stuff. For instance, in that screenshot I can see that they're using Band 4 (AWS 1700/2100Mhz), LTE bandwidth is 5Mhz which tells me that the maximum possible download/upload speeds are 37mbps down / 12mbps up in that particular market, EARFCN 2175 means that they're using C block of the AWS spectrum which is 10Mhz slice (5Mhz used for downlink, and 5mhz for uplink).
Most consumers don't care about this kinda stuff, but I do
Thanks again!
Oh wow. Makes sense. Glad I could help and I'm sure this would help others too.
