You do know it's going on every tower right? .. Minus a free odd ball ones here and there. Along with increased coverage due to 800 band

Speed Test = BALLER STATUS

I was sitting in Dunkin' Donuts yesterday morning and decided to run a speed test on my new Note. Granted, I was very close to a tower and I had full bars, I was blown away with my results.
yep thats about right over here in houston too with full bars......puts other Networks to shame.
Verizon WHO????
Eww ads...
And fml that's faster than my cable connection.

LTE in Miami

Good morning guys. Woke up to find my phone found a LTE signal. Speeds were not that great but I don't expect it to since it just went up and it is probably in testing.
I just got some very fast speeds too, but my 4G icon doesn't say LTE

New May LTE going Live schedule

http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/909-sprint-lte-may-2012-schedule-maps/page__pid__16079#entry16079
S4GRU has posted and updated LTE schedule for sites going live in May. NYC/NJ, and other areas are about tro go live....as I have said the LOS and dropped calls recently picking up probably is related to NV. In January in some places I got 1MB up, and down loading on 3G.
This is for all of you whiners complaining that Sprint won't have LTE up any time soon. This is also for some of you would be getting that EVO 4GLTE early....don't fret you will be vindicated. BTW you guys that went to Verizon, and are losing your unlimited data....here's mud in your eyes.ROFL....Just kidding come on over the speeds are just fine lol
This is a lovely time to be on Sprint here in NYC...LTE lighting up, and unlimited data to enjoy it at a great price.....
That interactive map is pissing me off lol, I swear I'm logged in but I can't view it.
I think I see a blue marker over Philadelphia there but I wonder if that is really there or proabably for the northern Maryalnd/Baltimore area?
EDIT: Oh, in my haste I somehow missed the whole "sponsor" bit.
I need them to get going with South Florida

Unfortunately, it seems we are staying in phase II..
Sweet! There will be some 4G even up in the boonies of North Georgia which is awesome. A ton of sites going up around Atlanta compared to others it looks like..
Yay for us Chicagoans, 288 kb/s down and 76 kb/s up
Saw this going on right outside my work today. And according to s4gru, it seems to be the location of a sprint tower. (There's no other towers anywhere near, and the map shows this as the location). Maybe good?

Sprint LTE coverage maps now available

KC, Atlanta and several TX metros now show LTE on the coverage maps.
http://coverage.sprint.com
Seriously!? The KC northland is getting screwed big time. Hopefully they add coverage soon.
Whoa, it says I have LTE (or at least soon) in Athens! Need to go try this out
EDIT: Yikes, so I went to try it out. No 4G, but I did a speed test anyway to see what I'd get. Three days ago, in the EXACT same place, I was pulling 1.9mbps. Today? 128kbps. Hope that's temporary...

Under mobile network in settings, make sure you have it set to cdma AND LTE. that is all you need to do I believe. Then when your phone can find the signal it'll display 4g in the top bar.

It's says "CDMA - eHRPD" which I guess is the same? How do you change it if that is wrong?
Man that map shows Lewisville covered all around with LTE! My upgrade needs to hurry.
You were under About phone-network. Look right under bluetooth in the wireless settings group at top. You should see Mobile Network. Under there you will see cdma/LTE option.

Considering that Kansas City is Sprint's headquarters, I find it pretty pathetic that their entire metropolitan area isn't completely covered. They should take care of their home market first IMO.

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

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. -_-

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.
