Ok, that is good to know. Maybe I will consider the Edge. I will have to see if any deals come up Sent from G-Note 8

I am hoping that when I finally upgrade to a spark device, this will be better These are my results on single band LTE, with my Note 3, Fairfax and Wilshire is the location. http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/1048254991 Signal always jumps back and forth from 3g to 4g, but all the other providers get even better numbers on 3G. Good thing signal strength at home is still the best of all the providers. Sent from G-Note 3

There must have been updates going on because u started getting lte again. Sent from G-Note 3.

So weird. I haven't gotten LTE connection near my work in quite some time. I can't seem to find the resource where it states if any updates are currently going on, but I used to get consistent LTE connection whenever I'd be on break or walking to lunch, but not anymore. Oddly enough, the 4G LTE emblem only comes on, when I'm inside the building.

Came in to join the discussion and this is the only thing I have to say about the Note 3 not having Tri-Band LTE radios. No big deal, there's a good probability I'll end up upgrading again next year anwyay. I was already willing to keep the Note 2 for another year, without any issues whatsoever. Only reason I decided to take the plunge on the Note 3 was due to Samsung stepping up and offering a minimum 32gb internal storage (w/ 25gb usable). To me, that is absolutely golden and one major thing I complained about last year, as compared to anything else. Lastly, I'm more concerned about Sprint's slow NV updates, to where service at my house has gotten worse, when I was expecting it to get even better than it already was. Sprint was the only provider to have extremely solid coverage at my house, but that is no longer the case, since NV started. So, before I ever worry about having Tri-band LTE on any of my phones, I'd first like to see Sprint speed up the NV updates and make the network stable, rather than focusing on building out the extra 2 bands of LTE. I'd even be happy if they managed to improve the 3G connectivity. Another thing I'm hoping they did, since it's my understanding that the Note 3 will be a world phone, is have the SIM card accessible again (just like the Photon), as well as unlocked. Even without the tri-band LTE, the Note 3 would have great value as a "world" phone, that could be used in other countries.

I was at Yard House in Marina Del Rey. No roaming no signal at all. Posted from G Note 8

I called in and they confirmed NV work being done. Sprint normally has strongest signal at my house, but it went to no signal at all recently. Posted from my G-Note II.

Download was around 10. Upload was only around 1mbps less than this time. Posted from my G-Note II.

Ok, I am a little more optimistic about NV upgrades. From the Grove closer to farmers market Test Date: Apr 18, 2013 8:03:12 am Connection Type: Lte Server: Los Angeles, CA Download: 25.59 Mbps Upload: 7.15 Mbps Ping: 51 ms Posted from my G-Note II.

L.A. (and OC) becomes "official" as of tomorrow? http://phandroid.com/2013/04/11/spring-4g-launches/ http://www.phonearena.com/news/Sprint-to-announce-21-new-LTE-markets-on-April-12_id41757 What does that mean, exactly? Does that mean that everything will be turned on completely and folks across LA and OC will see a sudden jolt of LTE for Sprint?

Sorry, I had mentioned in my last post, but forgot to re-post. Corner of wilshire and fairfax. Across from peterson museum. Same street Biggie Smalls got shot. Posted from my G-Note II.

So, I decided to test the lte speed outside my office again today. 1st Test 12.7mps down 4.5mps up 2nd test 13.5mps down 2.5mps up I don't mind that at all. Hope the numbers keep increasing. Connectivity seems to keep getting better, so hopefully it'll continue. Posted from my G-Note II.

So, I've noticed 4g was connecting more consistently lately at work, so I did a speed test. When outside in the strongest spot, 10.5mbs download abd 1.5mbs upload. Not bad. I'm happy with that, but the catch is that unless I'm in an ideal spot outside, it's not as consistent. My office is at the corner of Fairfax and Wilshire. Posted from my G-Note II.
