Sprint just notified me that the Sprint Vision upgrade (but not Spark) is complete in my area (suburbs of Washington, DC. 10 tests got me this range. I'm pretty happy.

I hope the next stop is Milwaukee... I had to disable LTE because my phone was stuck in limbo between 1 bar of LTE or 4-5 bars of 3g. Its better by my home, but at best I get half those speeds. ?
Sent from my Nexus 7 (Flo) running CleanRom 3.5 and ElementalX 2.13.
Just a few weeks before they officially went live here, my LTE speeds, in the same location, were around 7-8 Mbps. So whatever the final step in the upgrade process is seems to make a big difference.
Thats about same as what I'm getting I'm Warner Robins Ga. South of Atlanta. I am only 2 months on sprint now so I am not savvy yet on the triband and all. But I am happy with lte or spark as it shows lte and spins this little spark around averaging 17 to 20 down and 6 to 12 up. Fluctuates. But I'm not sure if this is best it gets here where I live or I'm still getting the upgrade. So. However I'm easy. As long as I can watch video without buffer at 1080 or 720 I'm happy. Quick posts and searches. I really see no real need for 80 up and down plus. Lol. Unless I needed to download a movie fast. Which I do not.

Even if you have full signal strength to whatever router i noticed speedtest is slower on the prime then other devices on same network ie. Laptops,netbooks, or smartphones anyone else noticing the same thing?
That is correct. but really I don't need anymore speed then what I am getting.

The low numbers are from my 4g hotspot phone
My Sig is the speed it is capable of
Well I noticed your sig was done on the 1st of Dec and this was done on the 24th and 25th. It would be better that the test be ran at the same time. Who knows if your data speed was 39mb's on the 24th or 25th. Your isp could have been slower that day for some reason. When I get my Prime, sometime this week, I'll test my phone (Evo 3D), my wife's (Evo 4G), my laptop (Macbook pro from '08), and the Prime and compare the results. I will try them in multiple spots in my house to see what the variation in speeds will be.

Updated sig. same speed
sooooo I have gotten use to the awful 3G speeds that I get most of the time around my area. Some days you have good days but overall they have been in the gutter. I don't know if today is just a good day or if the evdo radio is actually that much better in this phone.

I never got even close to that speed on my 3D, I have ran multiple test to see if it was a fluke but they have all come in great ping times, 1,000kbps+ with about 675 up average. Pretty impressed actually, my 3D in the same area would bounce all over the place 500 average maybe sometimes lower. Anyone else seeing this in there area?
Also 3G actually works great while on the phone! I have been waiting for this feature for YEARS, I read rumors about it but didn't think it would actually work. Wayyyyy better - I heard towers needed to be upgraded for this to work - is it working for you guys as well?
I traded in my ET4G but after testing a zillion times here at home I never got above 850 and that was only upon rare occasions. Most of the time I was between about 350 and 520. I am now pulling 1200 consistently
My 3g sucks as always!!!

WAY faster than my hero! My hero would usually pull like 50kbps
I'm still getting the same results

Just thought I'd share. LTE was crappy this morning but for better closer to midnight

Swyped on my EVO LTE
That seems pretty low. Hopefully its just due to it not being fully rolled out yet
Holy ish.... I didn't think I would ever see this in my home town..

I first picked it up in Valley Center and by Hartman Arena in Park City. But yes it does seem a little slow and at times it would drop the network and reconnect almost immediately. I hope it does get faster. But right now i feel like moving to KC for the LTE and Google Fiber.. /nerdgasm
I just ran some speed test.. It's not doing to bad but I've never had anything better than 3G so I might just be in awe...
I also wasn't getting internet at first so I updated PRL and profile and now it's screaming fast. (compared to 3G)

There are only a few towers with LTE in wichita right now. Once the roll out is complete it will be better.
They're definitely working on it. Im getting a signal at my house I wasn't getting a few days ago. I forced lte on my evo and have been connected and surfing for about 30 min now without dropping the connection. Not super fast but can't wait to try it when its complete. I wonder how long it'll take. Any guesses?
Well sheeeeeeyit. I was just in Wichita a couple days ago to visit the folks. Didn't even think about trying LTE tho...
First off, thanks in advanced for reading this and any helpful comments are appreciated. I got my Xperia Z2 back in July. It was the International Version. I came from the Samsung Galaxy S4. I got the the S4 through ATT and the Z2 is my first unlocked phone. Anyway, I took the SIM card from the S4 and I put it in the Xperia Z2. At the time I had no idea about APN's and such so I expected the mobile data to work right off the bat. When I realized it didn't work, I went to the ATT store and they put in the APN settings and the Mobile Data works but I've noticed, it's very slow. On both H+ full bars and LTE full bars I have less than 1mbps download and the upload is even worse. I don't know what to really do. I tried putting in the APN settings myself and I learned about the Internet Settings in the more setting of connections and had the phone get the settings automatically. But still, no matter where I am, my data speeds are slow. I recently put the SIM card back in the S4 and the speeds are fine on there. I already considered if it was my plan but my brother is on the same plan as I am (He has a Nexus 5) and his speeds were significantly faster than me when we were out. I apologize in advanced if I sound like an idiot or an amateur but this is new to me. So again thank you for reading my long story! And here's a link of the screenshot I took of my speeds at full LTE Speeds:

I have bought a new Pixel 6 few week ago and get some missed calls and sms (where a Pixel 3a had no such problems). I wonder if I still have connection problems despite the fact that I have all upgrades installed.
I live in Germany and use o2 with LTE with a physical sim and a T-Mobile esim just for plain gsm.
I monitored the cell towers using the app netmonitor.

Sometimes I see cell towers with a by far better signal strength but they are not used. Some seconds later they disappear. Do you have an explanation for that or how to improve it?

Running stable Android 13 ? Perhaps enrolling into the Android beta program will help (QPR). It includes the latest drivers and firmware for thePixel 6 modem.
