So i'm not sure if im actually getting 4g LTE because it was just implemented in our city. This may be a stupid question but i want to make sure im getting the most out of my phone.
Im currently running Tasks's AOKP jellybean rom with the latest build 12/2, and i love it. I just did a clean wipe/install and setup how i like, and changed the apn settings accordingly to task's FAQ thread to the most ideal settings according to the Pros. I am receiving mobile data, and everything should be ship shape.
However, i ran this rom once before, and when I went out and about, the best coverage i've gotten has been HSPA+, which im pretty sure is just normal 4G. But, I want to enable 4g LTE somehow.. I talked to the guys at AT&T once and they said HSPA+ is 4g lte, it just wont change the icon. How can i be sure 4g LTE is running, and if its possible can you switch the stupid hspa+ icon to 4g. How can all this be done?
Thank you.
Our phones don't support 4G or 4G LTE technology
SMH
The person you talked to at your AT&T store doesn't know what he is talking about. HSPA+ is not LTE. Technically it's not even 4g, it's 3.5g.

gahhh your joking...right? When i bought the phone a year ago they were all like 'the galaxy s 2 is the highest damand, fastest phone. If your gonna mod it n **** then its the one for you' and i was like hmmm 'does it have 4g' and they were like 'yes but we dont have it in your area yet, but you will get it when its available.'
Its bull****. ****ing customer service.
hey i get a new top notch phone in a year though, i guess i can't complain.
Dear god

Never trust Customer Service. Always do your own research
And he doesn't have a sky rocket. Hmmm
Yeah man customer service lied lol
PT Barnum said it best.

I remember when I would see speeds like that.
They were all done at a 5am people were sleeping. Post some afternoon shots when people are up and actively using their phone. I get those speed at am hours too. Once day light comes i drop as low as 0.01kb

These are my speeds, my 3D is flashed to reliance in India so I can also use Sprint Hotspot for free without root.
Here's myself in Arlington right now. Oh and how bout them tornadoes!
Swyped from mah 3vo!
Here is a more realistic look at normal speeds in the Dallas area, all are in Downtown Dallas. The two fastest ones were on 4G.
I win.
Not bad
Greetings from Slovenia
Im in Dallas as well and when they say its as different as day and night, they are right.
Its great at night and sucks in the day. Cant wait for Network Vision to be launched in Dallas.
not the greatest speeds ever, but hey at least we have Unlimited speeds with Sprint unlike any other wireless carrier lol

Seems to be right on par what I get in Arlington area. It's rare that I have full signal except when driving and passing a tower. I usually don't even bother using mobile internet anymore unless I just have to.
IM in Atlanta area and IM not getting any 4g lte. Is there a toggle switch or something IM missing? I have yet to see a 4g icon on my screen.

Some sites around ATL did go live but then I think they blocked them. Probably just testing. I remember reading that someone in Smyrna and Lawrenceville had picked it up. Hopefully they'll get Atlanta rolled out soon enough!!

I went on a business trip to ATL 2 weeks ago and got LTE for an hour before it cut back out. It showed up on my bill this month and it was kinda depressing knowing that it was probably the only time I'll ever see it -.-

Wherever you have 3g service you will have 4glte it may take a while for sprint to get to your area depending on where you are located
Since I got this phone I like it a lot the speeds were very decent compare to my old nexus but today is been really bad here in las Vegas anyone else have this problem? It looks like LTE is far from coming Herr so I doubt is that

I'm asking if is in las Vegas problems or my account I updated profile and prl and same thing I got full bars and 3G (flashed a Rom so it tells me if I'm on 3g) you don't need to waste a post to just say that , really you have the much time to waste

Sprint data speed is terrible in most areas... The common answer you will get from here is either:
1) switch to a different carrier.
2) wait for network vision.
Or
3) take your phone to sprint.
Welcome to Sprint...
The only true unlimited data network with no data cap.........since youll be spending half the month loading one web page

HTC EVO 3D EE LTE 4G Compatible?
I went into my local orange shop and they said no its a hardware upgrade like the new htc one xl due for release and a new 4g sim card, not too happy about this myself i love the exclusivity of the evo 3d. The cdma version in the states can handle it though maybe the technology is in the phone just needs telling to work on a custom rom and a 4g sim, it wouldn't surprise me if the networks tried to hide this from us.

Unless you happen to be a crazy mad genius and could somehow integrate 4g LTE hardware into the hardware ofbthe EVO 3d and then program the motherboard to work with it along with modifying the kernel drivers to work with all of it then you'd be the greatest in the history of xda and possibly the entire world!!! But of course this is all purely speculation.. But a guy can dream right?

FACEPALM
we cant even get 4g on jelly bean to work
I think we got a shot at getting work better than the sense 4.1 roms.
So I was coming home from work, and I glanced at my phone , and here's what I saw. Did a speed Test and here's the results. Its the second time I've seen this. I guess tmo is finally deploying 1700mhz 3g at my area. I'm in st Louis BTW.

From a hardware standpoint both RANs are almost exact. Ive shown up to tmob sites and opened ATT cabinets on accident. The outdoor equipment is that similar. (same rbs, radios, filters, etc. )
I heard tmob/att had opened their networks to help with the states where they lost up to 30% of the sites from the hurricane. Maybe that has something to do with it.

Hello, I would just like to report to all Kansas City users that T-Mobile has switched their 4G network to the 1700mhz band and i am running CM10 nightly with the UCLF6 radio and my signal is great and have 4G. The problem with CM10 is that is always has jumped from 3G to H+ no matter what radio you are on but at least the connection is stable and i am getting speeds in the high 5Mbps!

I think you meant 1900mhz.
I see this in San Francisco bay area too. It works here and there but overall still the same old edge
