Lte roaming, why can't it be done - Sprint HTC EVO 4G LTE

Why isn't roaming available on the lte service?

because every carrier has their LTE on a different frequency.

That's not nice

At $55 a month you can't complain Works great for me on 3g and I use WiFi at home.

Cricket has surprisingly good 3g speed, especially in comparison to Sprint's 56k dial-up modem speeds. Considering I get full Sprint coverage, the smiley is for the fact I can FORCE ROAMING to get the speeds I deserve to be getting with Sprint.
People really need to read the manual prl thread

I know on Sprint you have about a 200mb data limit roaming which would make me not want to force it. Is that the same for cricket? I'd hate to be thinking about that all the time.
How do you know you are on cricket roaming and not verizon or another cdma carrier? Also what is the app you are using in your screen shots that shows the connection speeds, etc?
Wow your cricket speeds area really bad. Here is mine with the latest cricket prl and 2 bars and not roaming

Anyway to connect to Verizon's LTE?

I have the EVO LTE and was wondering if there was anyway to roam on Verizon's LTE. They have coverage in my area and it would be nice to use it

None of the carriers have roaming agreements for their highspeed data that I know of. I'm not sure if sprint and verizon use the same frequency for their LTE either.
Sprint uses 1900MHz frequency while Verizon uses 700MHz. So we won't be able to roam on their lte.

OK. Thanks for the responses guys!
I love this phone! (EVO 4G LTE)

Bermuda?

Anyone know if my EVO LTE will work in Bermuda?
Check sprints coverage map. Call sprint. If it's international roaming your gonna be charged out the ass

Verizon Network

Hi Everyone,
I was wondering if the HTC Evo 4G LTE would work on the verizon network.
I really like the phone, I just don't like Sprint...
I also haven't been able to find any verizon phone that is comparable to the HTC Evo 4g LTE.
Anyways thanks for your help!
You can force your phone to roam to there 3g towers, but I hear that eventually after so much roaming...sprint will kick u off their network. As for 4g lte, their frequency is 700 (or 800 can't remember exactly) and sprints is 1900, so that's just not compatible.

[Q] at&t bands

I bought the phone from at&t but i'm in egypt now
The phone signal indicator gives me that i'm using 4G while we don't have 4G in egypt so could i change that icon
A second thing is i get pretty slow speeds on a 3G network is that someting related to bands ?
Forgot to mention that here we have UMTS 2100 band

I believe the 4G is an indicator of HSDPA or an HSPA+ network, which is truly 3G but the U.S Carriers like to call 4G.
As for the slow speeds, make sure you have the right APN settings put in for your local carrier. Without that you may get internet, but slowly.
