LTE is no joke. I've been trying to tell my friends that it makes HSPA + feel like dial up. I only have 2-3 bars right now. I'll come back and post when I can get a better signal.
LA area. Much better than pre jb speeds. Still nowhere near the 40+mbps I was getting in Oakland.

I'm a against picketing but I don't know how to show it.
Makes you think paying for a ISP is a waste when you got LTE. Im on T-Mobile LTE and I average 14-20mbps in washington dc.
I agree. I've been debating dropping Cox internet.. but then I have to pay to tether and even with "unlimited" data.. I'll end up getting throttled..

I have noticed my throttled speeds are higher on LTE than they were when I was on a non 4G phone.
My throttled LTE speeds are actually as fast as my HSPA+ full speed was, (8Mb/s)
Luckily I haven't seen those dial up speeds since I've had my LGOG

Low network speed
I was in an AT&T store playing with various phones (I haven't decided which phone I want yet) and one of the tests I ran was speedtest. Turned off wifi on an HTC One, SGS4, and LGOG. The SGS4 and One both grabbed ~22/~6 down/up speeds, but the LGOG was in the ~6/~2 down/up range. All AT&T employees were really busy, so I couldn't ask them for help.
Can anyone think of a reason why this would happen? I ran the test multiple times. (I didn't try to troubleshoot other than rerunning the test)
The network was probably really bogged down by multiple people using the network off the same tower. "Heavy traffic"..
Correct me if I'm wrong. Just my educated guess.
As you can see from the above speed tests.. the LGOG has no problem getting high speeds
Also did you check to see what network it was on...
4G or HSPA+.... the symbol would have said 4GLTE or 4G respectively

I have tried both T-mobile SGH-T989 KID and T-mobile SGH-T989 VKL1 modems/radios and the speeds are about the same, 1mbps down and 0.03mbps up.
I tried on both Stock ROM and SAUROM and both are similar speeds. I also tried switching from GSM/HSPA to HSPA only but HSPA only runs at edge speeds.
Signal strength is 4 out of 5 bars where I tested.
Are there any other modems/radios I can try?
Thanks in advance.

Use the Telus radio instead and also replace your build.prop file with the modified one you can find in the forum. I get 10Mbps down 2Mbps up usually with this setup.

Sim is a 2G sim? WHAT????
I cleared cache and flash the Telus radio and tested the speed and it's still the same speed as the other modem/radios. I even tried the other modems again and still no difference.
I put the sim into my Sensation and tested but the speeds I was getting were 1-2Mbps Upload and 0.2-0.6Mbps download. What the heck was happening with my data speeds and I have not even reached half my Throttling limit.
I called T-Mobile, the CS said that my sim was a 2G sim and they would send me a new sim. What the heck? I was given a new sim last year when I went to the T-Mobile store and complain about the slow speeds I was getting on the G2X. The sim is definitely NOT a 2G sim as I was getting 10Mbps down and 1.2Mbps up.
This morning on my commute, I tested a couple of times on my Sensation and my download speeds are now back to 10Mbps down.
I left my Note home so I will test when I get back.
its definitely the phone with the speed issues cuz my sister get 2-4 mg download and im still stuck on 200-300 kbps her phone is a mytouch 4g slide,

Possible fix with different combo of ROM/Kernal/Radio
Checkout this XDA article on the Portal page
http://www.xda-developers.com/android/get-your-galaxy-s-ii-skyrocket-to-run-t-mobile-hspa/
It seems the At&t Skyrocket some T-Mobile users are using are having the same problem.
XDA Senior Member tspx23 uses a combo of ROM/Kernal/Radio made a difference in getting better speeds on their Skyrocket. Will that work for the Note?
Now all we need is a Juggernaut like ROM with the Faux Kernal and the VKL1 radio.
i think that could be what we are going thru who here has what setup? im using the KID radio and still getting somewhat crappy speeds first day i did the mod was Proly the best speeds i got between 6-8

My speeds are pretty much not even LTE. In fact I was getting just as good speeds with my non-LTE Atrix 4g. From my bedroom I get about 1mbps and the upload...well if it registers at all I get 300kbps. Admittedly I get terrible terrible reception here even on my old phone. At my grandmas house where I get 3-4 bars I got up to 8mbps per second on one or two tests but often it was around 3mbps. The upload there never got above 600-700kbps. I live in Orange County, CA so maybe there are so many users that that's just as fast as we get...or maybe it's this phone. I dunno yet. Gonna try it at work(Disneyland) tomorrow and see how it works.
I attached a txt file with my tests...on most of them it says HSDPA, dunno what that even means.
Sounds like you do not have LTE in your area yet. The signal icon on your status bar will say 4G LTE if you have it.

But we do have LTE, it says on the coverage tracker that we do and my dad has the HTC One X and he gets LTE. Now that you mention it though it says 4G at the bar at the top of the screen and not LTE. Is it supposed to say LTE?
Yes it does say it right under the 4G. Go back and look at some of the screen shots. If you are both on At&t you should go to the store because you should have it also.

I don't know the AT&T network but on Rogers, Bell & Telus in Canada you need to specify an LTE APN. The HSPA/+ APN you have configured by default with your SIM probably won't support or recognize LTE service speeds, and even my 'LTE network' microSIM didn't import this automatically, I had to manually input the APN.
33/1.9 I wonder what's up with my upload speed.

Like the previous guy said you get edge speeds unless tmobile has refarmed the 1900 MHZ in your area for HSPA speeds.
Below is the list of cities where tmobile has refarmed the 1900 MHZ.

My connection is spotty too, but that really depends on the area. On areas closer to the Antenna it stays connected most of the time. But where I live my experience is close to yours.
I am on T-Mobile, did the Nexus conversion, and I can confirm that I am unable to get 3G on the 1700mHz band. I live next to a T-Mobile tower, and my last phone (TMOUS HTC One S) got 3G signal without a problem, so I know it isn't the area. I am only able to get EDGE and I have the Nexus 4 modem M9615A-CEFWMAZM_2.0.1700.33.

Anyone else been having very slow speeds on Verizon lately? It's been slowing down for a few months now. I used to get 20 - 30mbps download and lately it's been averaging around 5mbps. I've already tried "resetting" the phone & even switching roms. I'm wondering if it's network congestion or if they're finally throttling me(since I have unlimited data still).
I am also unlimited...just ran a speed test and hit 40.6mbps. Usually I'm around 25-30 though.

Here in Philly LTE speeds have been horrible, as low as .5mbps for me. And that was tested a couple of weeks ago. Data is essentially useless, so I just bumped down to a 250 meg package. I try use wifi everywhere I go, or try not to use data. Gettin' real bad.
Data speeds entirely depend where you live and who else is using the bandwidth. If you live in a crowded city you might not get great speeds during peek time. If you live in a rural area if you even have LTE there like me the speed is basically consistent I get about 20-30mbps at best. However like mentioned before I just try to use wifi all the time because I am limited to my 2gb and wifi is usually avaliable to me.

It's never even kinda-snappy here in Philly. Plain slow, all the time.
I've just generally not been getting good speeds anywhere. I get about 16/4 (D/U) in the best area of my house (my room) but the living room is like 8/1.8... I mainly use it for uploading. (TWC ISP gets me about 15/1mbps) My friends house in the town over I barely get 3G. However closer to the lake (erie) I can get 20-30.
Fastest I've ever got was 36/32 in Detroit.
Also I should mention that I've never seen speeds get better since I switched from AT&T to Verizon...
Inc -> rezzy -> DNA
Forgot to mention my house is on a lake if that has anything to do with signal and speed.
