i just upgraded from the evo 3d 4g isnt available in my area im in Monterey county but i was exacting the same speeds that i was getting with the evo 3d but this is just ridiculous, maybe i got a faulty radios with this device because my evo 3d was never this slow or is there something with the setting i can change to make it better i was really amped up to get this phone but at this point i am disappointed and want to return it
Try updating the PRL and Profile.
I have the exact opposite experience coming from the Nexus S 4G. S4 seems to receive the 3G signal better, and I am very pleased with the LTE coverage so far. I am in Minneapolis, so YMMV...

Your local tower/site might be being upgraded to LTE. If so, you should expect some down time. My site literally went offline for a few days (100% roaming on Verizon) until they finished whatever upgrade they were doing. Got LTE about a week later. But as stated, your mileage may vary.

My S4 is the same speed on 3g as my Evo 4G LTE and as our S3. I used Speedtest to verify. I'd take the phone into a Sprint store and run Speedtest on it compared to their display model. Turn wireless off on both phones first, of course.

If you don't have upgraded towers, your service should remain the same. If not, I would suggest you get your new phone looked at since it's still under warranty.

I'm coming from a Nexus S 4G too and this phone has so much better reception, especially wifi. Don't really get LTE that often though, which is kind of disappointing because I actually had pretty good WiMAX coverage. But I know LTE coverage will only get better with time.
Signal != Data speed. If your signal is good but your data speed is slow, it's most likely that the sector is overloaded or the site is currently backhaul limited. It sounds like the site you connect to hasn't had Network Vision upgrades yet. Go familiarize yourself with Network Vision over at s4gru.com.
Call sprint before you return it. I had the same thing. I had great signal with my HTC Evo 3d and when I switched to the S4, I was dropping calls like crazy and with 1 bar or no signal. Found out that they were updating the towers and I also have 4g in my area now. Woot!

Did T Mobile just roll out their 3G network?
Today I did a mobile speed test on my Tilt. I usually get 70kbit/s, last tested two month ago. And today is just amazing, my Tilt scored average 400-500kbit/s, and the highest I've got is a burst of 1000kbit/s.
It shows EDGE on my network signal bar, don't know what is going on. And I have my wifi turned off.
Tested on both Opera Mobile and Pocket IE, same consistent results, T Mobile's EDGE is never this fast before.

What ROM / Radio are you using?
Sleuth 3.0 with the included radio in that rom, by far the fastest and most stable Rom I've tried.
I have not bothered to test speeds, but I did a side beside comparison between my Kaiser on T-mobile USA and an Iphone on AT&T and the Kaiser was much faster.
Whatever that means. . .

I think so.
I got my device in January and this week i've been consistantly getting an HSDPA signal for the first time ever (Edinburgh).
Prior to this week, the only time I had ever received an HSDPA signal was when waiting for a train in London Euston.
Shame i'm only getting 160KBit atm but it's better than what I was getting before.
lifanus, where are you located? If you're in the US, then YES, tmo has just begin launching their 3g network. It's already up and running in NYC, and will be in a bunch more cities by the end of the summer. However, the tilt supposedly can't get the tmo-US 3g 1700mhz band.
I live in the boston area and my phone has been jumping over to 3g and H periodically, albeit intermittent. It's a sign of good things to come.
I've been with Tmo for years, and I've always loved their plans, service, and their pricing structure. I'm just glad they're going to offer services that will rival their competitors! :-D
Hi Ingentics,
I live close to Dallas, TX, USA (Denton)
I've tested the speed this morning again and the speed apprently dropped to normal 150kbits/s. I guess that the 500kbits/s to 1000kbits/s speed I was getting is late at night when not many people's using their data services. Because I got the results around 2am...
hi lifanus
I live in irving tx, i am not getting any 3G at all. i am running hyperdragon iii with the included radio. and i got the 5.99 plan. do you also the 5.99 plan?
WXC,
No, i'm actually using the T-Mobile total internet w/hotspot plan (internet2.voicestream.com instead of wap+proxy network).
Here is a screenshot of the speed I got late night yesterday.

Speed tests with opera are never accurate due to the way they compress and send information to the phone... pie is unfortunatly the only way to get an "accurate" speed test.
And also can't get tmobile 3g without the 1700 band
With the release of ATT's actual 4G speeds this Sunday, does anyone know if our HSDPA speeds will get any faster?
What exactly are you referring to?
lte=4g we will not see any benefit fro its implementation ....it requires an lte radio
Or is your area (or all for that matter) getting true hspa+ (not really 4g but faster than plain old 3g) ?
if that switch hasnt been turned on for your area and they are turning it on then yes....you could see an increase in data speeds.

I think what he means is will LTE turning on alleviate some of the stress on the flipped on markets HSPA networks, or maybe the backhaul has been approved in these markets.
I can speculate that no there won't be an immediate improvement. First, there are simply not enough LTE devices and users that would hop on the new network leaving the HSPA network to make an impact, not yet anyways. Second, I really really hope AT&T is not using the same backhaul on both networks, so the HSPA backhaul probably won't improve much in these markets.
But hey, what do I know.

I thought the same....relief idea....but the only lte devices in market right now are hot spot (only 2)
No phones...and we wont see any until the celox and holiday are released in q4
Even then lte is only active in a few markets right now.
There are however quite a few markets that dont have the backhaul thingy turned on yet....so if that is what he talkung about sure....he could see an increase.
Here in dallas it has yet to be on full time. sometimes its active (and insanely fast) others it isnt (but still faster than tmo and sprint)

It cracks me up when people refer to that as slow (I jumped ship from Sprint 2 months ago...we were lucky to get 1 mbps down)

I'm lucky enough to have a backhauled tower right by my house and I pull a average of 8mbps when at home.

If you're up for the challenge, the latest update of the Thrilled ROM fixes the speed setting that AT&T has on the phone. My download speed doubled from ~3 to ~6 mbps.
I Also increased speeds after the thrill rom installation. ATT has the build.prop tweaked for lower speeds. The thrill ROM addresses that.
As far as the LTE rollout for ATT, they don't even have ANY Lte phones out yet. I asked at the store last week when I got the thrill. Supposedly they will have around 20 4g and LTE phones by the end of the year. I don't know if that is nationwide...but it is the story I got here in Orlando Florida.

really quick, are you using an app to determine your speeds? i just ask because I am having trouble determining if i get 4g speeds even though I should have it
I'm in Ottawa and my speeds are a little wacky. The first night I had LTE service I hit 40mbps, bit now its steady around 16-18 or so.
Should i expect my most recent tests or should i be looking for higher than that?

Were in Ottawa are you? Im in Kanata and have yet to see lte speeds. im in an ongoing battle with rogers to get lte here. they told me were there towers were in Kanata i went there and nada. i know hunt club and merivale is a strong signal as is baseline and woodroff were their flagship store is. I have gotten decent speeds here and there but i dont believe there network is even half functional. i bought my phone in Toronto in oct and the lte speeds were pretty consistent and coverage was fairly accurate in terms of their coverage map.
First they said my device was defective even though it worked fine in Toronto. So i bought a sierra wireless lte modem and had the same results to prove to them it wasnt a device issue. then i drove to there towers with google maps on my screen to show them my position and the fact that my phone was in edge and sometime 3g at best and emailed rogers tech support pics as well.
There supposed to send a tech out again tomorow but at this point im not very optimistic.
As you can see in the pic when lte works its great the speeds there are from toronto and 2 are from ottawa, just not anywhere near me lol, other pics are of my position less than 100 meters from the towers and you can see the network its on 4g if lucky otherwise edge (tower is corner of campeau and teron other one is castlefrank and 417)
Also do you have issues with the phone when it tries to switch between 4g and lte?
I live in sandy hill and work downtown. I hit 4g downtown but 90% of the time I'm on LTE at home which is pointless as I have WiFi.
Sent from my HTC-X710a using XDA App
i haven't really noticed anything when they switch, but i'm not really aware of when it does.
what i have noticed is that when i'm on LTE my signal kinda dwindles, but its not unusable. its actually more functional than with full strength on 4g.
So I figured out why I was getting such low speeds on my tests. I was running off a Montreal server so it was skewing my results.
After using the Ottawa server my results improved drastically. The top 3 are after I switched to the Ottawa network.
I am impress.
LTE for the win.

Im in the same boat, for some reason speedtest and alot of other cell signal apps put me in montreal as my location when trying to figure out my location via cell signal. funny thing is it only happens when in lte, wonder if this is some sort of bug? when i change it to ottawa speed def picks up.
Also rogers is having issues with their lte they gave me 50%off my bill for 6 months so i pay 25$ for 10 gb and 25$ for my north america unlimited plan, may be worth calling in for you as well

I messed with the same idea for the first couple of days and came to the conclusion that the only way to turn off the 4G and LTE antennas was to completely turn off the cellular data, at least with the stock software. If you look in the Play store, you should be able to find an app that will toggle the 3G/4G/LTE radios which would leave you with only normal cellular data. In fact, this is one of the things that Juice Defender does automatically by default when you put your phone into standby.
Yeah, I realized that after I got my phone, no independent LTE control. Every time I use Juice Defender I miss emails and have data issues...maybe it's better now...I don't know.
I hope a replacement back cover becomes available soon. I want to try that RAZR MAXX battery mod.

I use an app called "power toggles", it seems to do a good job of turning off 3G/4G/Wifi whenever I want to, not when the phone thinks it should. however as it's just a widget and doesn't monitor the states or anything the "smart actions" on the atrix do tend to reset some settings from time to time but mobile data does stay off for me.
Not sure about the AT&T model but the Bell one has a setting for changing from GSM only or HSPA only and GSM/HSPA/LTE (auto mode)

The nearest lte is an hour from me. Ive had this phone for almost a month now and didnt even know that lte shows up under the 4g icon until i went to houston two nights ago which is an hour away. Gotta say i love lte. My problem is i use my smart phones to the max. Any data shutoff can only happen when i sleep which isnt much. I went from the original atrix to the hd. I love the phone but it stays pluged in the majority of the day. Im guessing its searching for lte all the time. I get 3-4 hrs till dead constantly. If someone can help point me in the right direction to turn off lte i wouldsure be great full. The att rep gave me the normal speil that lte is coming any day then quietly told me any day is six months or more. I dont mind doing battery mods but i would rather not. I wasted money on the power skin. Its fine if u dont use the phone while the skin is on. It makes the phone act screwy. I just want to use my "wireless" phone wirelessly.
try *#*#4636#*#* on phones it works on, it brings up a menu where you can disable various gsm settings.

If you want to extend battery life you can disable "Data Network", doing so will turn off all carrier data network connectivity. Turn it on to get updates or email as needed. Keeping it on 100% of the time is not necessary. You'll still be able to send and receive calls and text messages. Nothing that requires data Network will be received or accessable (i.e. Internet, SMS, eMail, Facebook, etc...) while it is disabled.
ZDBox is a great tool for manging a phones resources and it has a great wedget that can be configured to allow for quick enabling / disabling of wifi, data network, gps, sycn, etc...

They are in an area where they have access to band4 its roughly 80mbps. I found an article that said most large cities east of the Mississippi and some western cities already have access to it.
Going to take time for the rest of the county to get access to it.

The line between fiber and wireless / price is still beyond me...

I get speeds like THIS ^ here in North Central Florida/Tallahassee .... I lost ALL of my screenshots due to my G2 locking up - just lost recovery after flashing a kernel & had to revert .... meaning LOST EVERY-THING on my sdcard .... but I have a lot from my GNEX with CONSISTENT speeds just like these !!! Point being, I get these speeds on my G2 but I only have proof of them from my GNEX running KK
I was in the mall the other day, stopped @ a T-Mobile kiosk to check out the S5 .... the dude asked me what I had in my hand .... then, what carrier (VZW) then he asked what speeds I get with LTE. I told him I ~average~ 50-65+MB/down while topping out at over 80MB/down at times - HE COULDN'T BELIEVE ME .... Soooo, I showed him my GNEX w/KK screenshots .... dropped his jaw

Did you drive all the way out to an LTE broadcast station just to do that?

I've gotten download speeds of up to 55mbps and upload of 22mbps when I was first testing my area for the best 4G LTE tower to point my directional YAGI antenna at ( I have no high speed internet options other than VZW 4G, so I use a Wilson 4G signal amplifier and YAGI antenna to get a high speed connection in a fringe area). Theoretical limit of current 4G LTE is 100mbps down / 50 mbps up so your numbers look pretty good. Remember though that if the cell you are in gets a lot of traffic your rate can drop off dramatically. When I test my connection now I usually run about 15/20mbps down and 8/12mbps up. Next gen LTE ups the max rates to 150 down / 75 up I believe, but I think the biggest changes coming in 5G are smarter bandwidth coordination between cell towers and more dynamic bandwidth and load management.
Don't wanna show off but.....zoom zoom!

Nop. That's is where I live. I'm getting that speed most of the time, Sometimes around 50mb but always fast.
Not as fast as some of you guys, but pretty good for living in the middle of nowhere ☺
I guess band4 hasn't hit my area yet. Is there any kinda roll out map out there?

I haven't seen one. It seems really random on which areas get it though.
This is what I get at home. Thank God for WiFi lol
