Ever since updating to 4.3/Sense 5 (Cap's ROM) the Play Store has been incredibly slow downloading over mobile. Wifi seems normal as does mobile speed for other data. Anybody else seeing this?

Running Cap's 4.3 as well and haven't had that problem fyi. I do have extremely slow areas of "4g" in general. I think its just Sprint's poor network.
It must have been a network thing. Working better tonight for sure.

Just ran a speed test on my phone and im getting awful speeds. Around 300kb on average. Running stock rom ke5 radio and matrix kernel. Any idea why it is so damn slow with full service bars??

Move to question please can't do it from the app my bad.

Yes you're right about wrong area... but keep in mind bars mean nothing.. I could have two bars on my nexus s and my friend could have full bars on his evo 3d and I'd still have better data speeds than him. As of late sprints 3G speeds have not been great.. 4G is where its at.

Also if you were using the speedtest app itgives really inconsistent results. I use speakeasy.net on my phond

Maybe try another radio? I mean data speed isn't a kernel issue

Sprint sucks! I never have a service where I used to have before and 3g feels like 1x most of the time.

update your prl/profile.
sometimes sprint's speed sucks, sometimes it's great. i get inconsistent speeds... sometimes i'll get 1.5mpbs on 3G, other times I'll get 300kbps...
Updated both prl and profile and i'm pulling down speeds of 199kb. Awful. My upload is faster than my download haha.
On wifi I'm pulling speeds around 16mb

Known issue, wrong sub-forum, thread closed.
Anyone else that uses Google Lattitude notice that it is extremely slow to load or locate friends. I use this all the time to locate family and friends and worked great on my original EVO 4G but it is awful on this new unit.

Hows your network speed around your area?
Not bad. But still slow as molasses on WiFi too.

Tried clearing cache on the app? long shot in the dark but I would start threw there...
I am having a strange problem on the Google play market store, whenever I try to Download or update an app on 4G it gives me a message saying "waiting for network" and it just hangs there and does not start the Download process but when I switch back to 3G it starts the download right away which would be fine if my 3g wasn't so dam slow...Can anyone help? I'd really rather not download over 3g, I have tried clearing the cache for the play store app but the problem remains. I am able to do everything(browse the net, stream video, etc) on 4g except download apps from the store...wtf?

A quick search on Google on this issue lead me to the topic below, seems like I'm not the only one experiencing this issue...is anyone on here having trouble downloading apps from the store over 4G on their EVO 3D?

I am. I thought it was from flashing ZR3DX. It stopped working right after flashing it.
Hmm interesting, mine stopped working out of the blue as well...I have been using mean Rom 3.92 for over 4 months and it was working fine until recently. Have you found any work around? Could it be something wrong with the Google play store and not our phones?
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Not our Rom or our phone. Some one over at the HTC EVO shift forums have the same issue. I say its the update. So what we need to do is downgrade the play store and break the damn auto update..... Any thoughts on how? :c

I saw a Sprint Users.com forum where all sorts of Wimax phones are having the issue currently (OG Evo, EG4T, etc). Mine's been having problems since last night. I just disabled 4G and it immediately started downloading. Unfortunately 3G is horribly horribly slow in Raleigh, NC these days. Might as well be using the Edge network. Ugh.
researching varisous forums...multiple handset manufacturers, and multiple carriers. Google has been blaming Sprint, but I also see similar posts on Virgin Mobile and (at least one mention of...) Verizon.

For me it works fine on 3g and wifi, but 4g is broken. "WAITING FOR NETWORK" is all it says. Been on the same Rom for the last 4 months. So Yea this is definitely not the phones.
update: I uninstalled all updates for the google play app and it downloaded perfectly. Now I honestly can't see how this isn't anything other than a bad update from google.
update: however this only works once per app since the market updates and then when the next app starts Bam! Waiting for network.

I started having the same issue today.
This issue is still happening to me and has been for over a week now with no solution in sight
Sent from my PG86100 using xda app-developers app
Guys try uninstalling the updates as one of you mentioned but also go into system/app and delete MarketUpdater.apk. Copy it to your sdcard somewhere first. And after deleting reboot.
I don't have 4g and never used it but if your looking to use a version of Play Store that won't update that's the way to do it.

I would reinstall z3rd or anotheer custom rom should fix it

They say no one from Sprint actually reads or cares about their user forums.
But at very least it gets the message out that there is a real problem.
Stock phone. I downloaded the ota ics yesterday. I have been having serious wifi connectivity issues that I never had before. Anyone else experiencing this? Any suggestions?
Thanks.

I've had no Wifi issues so far. Using Comcast cable modem, I am getting Wifi download speeds of 25 mbps & uploads of 5 mbps.

Thanks for the response. I am using comcast's latest modem and when it works, it's great. The connection does keep dropping, though, and I never had this problem before ICS.

Starting last week my Comcast internet service began disconnecting intermittently, especially late afternoon through the evening. After wasting time on their website and with an online chat, I called Comcast to ask about the modem. They told me I needed an upgraded Docsis3 modem. I went to the local office yesterday, and they swapped it out @ no cost.
Switched from Arris TM602G to a SMC smcd3gnv. Not sure which type modem you switched to.
So far, no problems with the new modem. What I don't understand (well, maybe I do) is why I had to spend so much time figuring this out. Why didn't Comcast notify me first?

What router are you using? Sometimes certain phone OS's don't play nice with the certain router firmwares. I've had problems with my Netgear and my Tbolt in the past.
I am using Comcast's Technicolor TC8305C. I was told it was their newest modem/router. Works in tandem with Xfinity X1. Hated to do it, but i did a hard reset on the Thunderbolt today and so far everything is fine. It even took some of the lag away. I am keeping my fingers crossed.

I've seen this when using an iffy internet connection. The screen shot shows you on the EDGE network, so I'd imagine that's the issue. Connect to a solid wifi network and see if that fixes the problem.

Ah! So you are... so you are. Then you, like me, may be looking for a new internet provider soon. Or perhaps the wifi you're on is having issues.
During my testing so far, I have only seen this on my (somewhat shoddy) wifi connection, and not on the much better LTE connection. That said, it also could be the HTC server is experiencing difficulties.
Assuming the issue is intermittent, it is almost certainly a problem with the network or the service, not your phone, and there's nothing much you can do about it on the phone itself.
