Just thought I would share but I did get LTE here in Schaumburg and the first run was not disappointing at all... I only had time to run it once since I was driving through... I lost the connection when I reached Elgin.

Yeah Idk I just noticed it at that moment... I was leaving that La fitness then like o said when I got back at Elgin I lost it... It might have been on just for a test at that moment

Just got back from the same gym and I didn't get any LTE this time... I don't know if it was them testing or how I received LTE yesterday but I did get 11mbs downloads and 7 upload yesterday... I was stuck on 3g the while time today...

The same reason computer hardware and software gets tested before release. Having a buggy/unstable 4G connection is no good.

I was at the gym again and when I was leaving I stopped at the parking lot to test out the 4G a few times... It was not as good as the first run but not too bad considering 3g is so slow...

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?

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?

I just experienced 4g while driving through the tiny town of Mulvane, KS. It's a town of about 15000 right south of Wichita, a city of about 500000 and Wichita doesn't have it yet...lol. must be a test tower in Mulvane. Anyways here's the three speedtests I ran with 4/5 bars.
Sent from my EVO 4G LTE using xda app-developers app
A little slow, but acceptable.
If the town is that small, it means there is a little hope for my town to one day see LTE. Supposedly we are part of the second roll out phase in the Nashville market - but I'll believe it when I see it.
Yeah I'll believe it when I see it too. When I first got my Epic 4g they told me I'd see 4g in my area within 3-4 months, 2 years later... I see nothing. I'd be happy with just the better 3g speeds.
Sent from my EVO using xda app-developers app
The tower in Mulvane has had 4G on air for awhile now. They must have started to unblock LTE.

Every Sprint tower, regardless of location, will be upgraded with Network Vision to include enhanced 3G and 4G LTE.
The 4g ends right at derby when heading north. It felt close to wifi and now i miss it. Hurry up and flip the switch. I hear they have a tower going near hillside and k96 too... Should be soon you'd think. Then again there was a wimax tower downtown for a bit but Wichita never really got it.

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. -_-

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.
