Must be my location but those are pretty standard 3g speeds for me and I'm not in an LTE market.

ha what PRL did you change to?.....if its one of the VZ based ones on the forum here just be careful as Sprint will not think twice to hit you with a little letter when you go over the roaming allotment...
Sprint's data speeds are so crappy, don't expect you speed tests to be similar. And upload speeds are usually never as high as download.
And yes, be careful if you flashed a Verizon PRL not to go over 300mb a month.
Prl 11115 I don't think I'm.ever in roaming, how would I see if I am

Think thats the Sprint Corp PRL....though I could be wrong...
You should always know exactly what your flashing and adding into your device before doing so btw, so you should know exactly what PRL you have to be honest...
I yep it is for Sprint corporate. And I understand that I was just trying to give insight to those in my area that my data speeds went up. My apologies for not researching enough. Moderators please close thread

I am also in Spokane, we only have 4G in the downtown area and along Sprague Ave out to the valley... I have tried a few PRLs but I don't think they make a real difference as far as speed goes
See I didn't even know we did, now I do and get one 4g bar weak lol

1.9Ghz and more? Anyone know about this?

So I'm on the phone talking to this sprint rep cause I was having terrible data with perfect signal strength, he said to try and turn on 1.9Ghz 3g and that was all he would say, any more and it would be like rooting the phone and that got me curious as hell, what really are our phone's capability??? And anyone found this setting yet? He said it was somewhere by debugging but I can't find it...

If you wonder what those service techs are thinking it's just gonna cause headaches. For the record I'm a CDMA switch tech and half my co–workers are as much in La La land as the service reps/techs.

I remebered an old trick from when the evo first came out where it was for some strange reason running in a gsm/cdma hybrid mode, or so the diag screen says, and if you change it to cdma only the data speeds were improved. I'm no network engineer so i'm not sure how that works, but for our phones if you click on mobile network itself in settings, the network config menu shows the radio mode as LTE/CDMA as default. I was having horrible speeds, maybe topped out at 200kbps on multiple tests, switched it to CDMA only, and was getting the same speeds as my OG evo, still a paltry 600-800kbps, but that is at my home where the 3g speeds have always been like this. Give that a try, and note that the setting doesn't stick if you reboot.

where do u turn LTE on???

i know that there is kno LTE near me yet but when i go through my phone i cant find where i would turn it on??? i thought it would have like a botton like when u turn 4g on.. when i had my 3d??
Settings the Mobile network then you will see the mode and can choose LTE/cdma or just cdma

Up to you I'm leaving mine turned on radio is built in to the processor so I don't think it makes to much of a difference where as with old phones they had another chip for the radios which drew more power.

I think the devs are working on or has a widget but LTE isn't like WiMAX where it sucks the battery down since the radio is built in to the processor

This ^
There's really no point in having a separate switch for LTE unless you really just want 3G speeds only. If they drain the same power, why not have LTE?

How's ur 3g?

Sorta like the 4g tread but for 3g lol. I'll start it off with a download as I can't run speedtest right now due to download taking all my bandwidth. Gotta love the early bird special

Not bad. Anything over 1mbps is perfect for me. When lte comes, idk what I'll do with it. Lol
I'm getting less than .2mbps right now. Sprint's been informed, and they have their OKCQC office dispatching technicians to the area. They said Network Vision should not have that much affect on my connection, and that they are working in the area. w00t!
This is at my office, btw.

4g and 4g LTE on vzw

I live in an area where I'm used to getting 1x and a bar of 3G, however today I noticed 4G and just now an icon popped up saying 4G LTE. Whats the difference? Given, vzw store said we would get 4g within a few months but didn't expect it this soon

I understand your question. It's the same thing on VZW. I think you just missed the LTE part the first time.

I wonder if you have an overlap of network types between VZW and another carrier like AT&T or something like that?
the DNA can only connect to Verizon's LTE spectrum IIRC. It can do basically all GSM/CDMA but not LTE.
I'm wondering if maybe he has a custom ROM or a custom status bar. If he is stock then that icon change is weird. And as stated, the DNA can only connect to Verizon's LTE. It does not support LTE from AT&T as it runs on a different frequency.

Shouldn't be a difference between 4G and 4GLTE. Your area is probably getting prepped for 4G. Expect it to go on and off for several days, even weeks, before it is officially turned on.

You need to call tech support and complain, that's no where near the speeds you should be getting. If you call tech support usually they'll come out and figure out what's wrong.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
Seeing how your area just got LTE, expect it to be slow for awhile. When my area got it a year and a half ago, it was pretty sucky for the first few weeks. Most likely they are setting everything up. Give it some time and it should start getting faster.
If you do live in an area that has had LTE for more than a month and you still have this speed, you should call Verizon.
