4G LTE Download Speeds Issue - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S 5

Haven't been able to hit anything over 6mbps. Average is running about 3mbps when in my S3 I averaged 20 to 35 download and upload.
I'm using the new Sim that came with the S5.

I was finally able to get 20mbps today. Upload still slow. Maybe servers are overloaded with all the new phones.

Nexus 4-T-Mobile U.S.A Thread

The thread was not started for a Q And A.Because this is a world phone I thought T-Mobile customers can have a thread of their own.
Examples: pricing, deals,rebates, and yes even LTE info. All things T-Mobile.

They dropped the price from $549+$50 rebate yesterday, which I bought yesterday, to $457.99 no rebate today. Went back to price match today and the said no manager on duty, try again tomorrow.

if you have root, add this to your build.prop file(/system/build.prop/) then reboot for it to take effect. see if it helps you.

I have a unlimited plan and I just tether.I was wondering if it comes with unlimited plans like the one that a person stated in a previous post or if I should expect a message from them.I always felt that root did the trick.

should you expect a message, probably, eventually, depending how much you tether. it took them a looooong time and lots of data before they stopped me. root has nothing to do with them stopping you from tethering, root just gives you "administrative" permission over your phone.
Any one know the what's the current city's that have/will have lte??

[Q] tmobile (USA) 4 G 2013

hi everyone,
Does this international device support the new Tmobile (USA) 4G speeds (as of April 2013) ?
if yes, whats the average download and upload speeds in supported Tmobile 4G Cities ?
thanks
It does. Been for a while. And speeds are very good. Sorry I'm to lazy to do a speed test but it's very fast. At least I believe so here in Miami.
it does
I am using this wonderful device with T-mobile, and i get good speeds, like 8mbps download and 1 upload.
Isn't t mobile us 4g just hspa+ ?

So they tout 3g as 4g. In my opinion that's misleading. Although you can get decent speeds on HSPA+. I get 8mbps down and 5 up on 3 in UK. Works out quicker than my mates LTE iPhone in London. Quick is one thing. Selling it as tech it ain't is another!

Goodbye SGH-T679 (Exhibit 4g)

Well it had been an awesome 2 years with this phone, but it is just outdated and lacks speed. My wife and I are switching to the galaxy light, she had an S1. The quadcore makes a difference. And comes stock at 1.4ghz I'll miss this little phone a lot, but its time to move on. I'll still be around to answer questions but not on a regular basis.

Sad to see you go, but I understand. I had an S1 before the Exhibit and it was a nice phone. Good luck and nice to know you'll still be here occasionally.
Still using my sgh t679.
I like that it's rooted, small screen (hate the new mini tablet phones people have), and that if I lose it I won't be out 400 or so USD...
And suprising amount of apps are compatible, don't know how long this will last since i am still on 2.3.5 android.
Its so fast and it has wifi calling!!!! How I missed that.

I thought the exhibit could do WiFi calling through Skype, but when I tried today it wouldn't call with the dial pad. Fail! I will like that option.

Got it. $10 a month is really nice, but when I can get it for half that online, I will get it from ebay, maybe. I'm still waiting to hear from t-mobile about working at a store. If that happens, maybe I can get the phone even cheaper. On the T-Mobile site it's 0 down, $9 a month. Why are you paying $40?
Did you buy the phone already? QVC has it for $150 and offers financing to break up the payments without paying more. "Order two and save on shipping!"
Its not$40 a month, it was a $40 down payment. Because my credit is not the greatest.

No. It's 40 down 10/month, right? I understand about the credit. I have horrible credit, as well. I'm glad you're getting the phone. I'm very, very jealous.
I already have it, went into the store and got them. And im very happy with it

Awesome. It's good to hear that it's as good as I have heard. And, I see you already know about the thread on rooting this phone. I think it's still too new. Being on the cutting edge isn't always so good. AD told me about the Light and only went to the S2 because it was already rooted. I'm gonna be patient and wait the few months until I can root it and leave it rooted-stock, anyway. At least for a little while, just to get rid of the bloatware.
That's mainly what I want to do

4g lte. speeds down after kitkat

You could be getting throttled by AT&T

Could also just be outages in your area, new towers, etcetera will all effect those speed tests, stuff like software updates doesn't usually lower speeds, though i have heard a lot of complaints after updating (on other phones) about losing connection/reception

I will check out my speed in the morning when my billing cycle starts over. As of right now on LTE i get 1mbps

Well when it is working good I get 10.4mbps but it's rare, mostly getting 1mbps or less and get stuck in regular 4g a lot which g does really slow
