Im in Cumming, no 4g here yet.

 

 

I did a 3G speedtest and got 900 kbps down, and 600 kbps up (average over 3 or 4 tests). That is about 5-10 times faster than I normally get...so thats something. Ping was 150ms...normally its at least 500ms on 3G.

WOW....lol....cant wait!

 

I just went outside on my deck and was pulling 20meg down(about 15meg in my basement) on average but also keep in mind that the tower I am connected too is literally a thousand feet from my house.

I'm closer to Fulton Industrial than 285. I rebooted my phone and saw 4g for a split sec when the phone turned back on, then it immediately went away. I rebooted two more times and it has been on since then.

Reboot your phone! And your LTE will stick.

 

I am getting 4/5 bar at home on LTE.

 

Did 3 test already and the best I got is 12.01 mbps down and 6.05 mbps up.

 

I am happy!

 

I am on Tara Blvd near Mt Zion.

 

Happy hunting and watching water boil and grass grow. :-)

 

LTE still sticking.

LTE is live in Duluth area. Averaging between 18-25 Mbps from Speedtest.net. Fastest I've gotten so far was 32Mbps. All tests were done inside my basement.

Why am I not getting that speed? I have 4/5 bar.

I think the version numbers are phone dependent.

 

The software is either one or the other..

 

I would assume he meant phone dependent as far as manufacturer. He is using a gs3 so his software number would be entirely different than those that use evo's which the current software is 1.22.

Yeah...if update via ota you'll definitely lose root. I wonder if you need that update to actually get an LTE signal.

I'm now wondering that exact same thing.

 

I would hold off...at least until tomorrow. If you don't get an LTE signal after the 15th than maybe... You might be blowing your root away to get LTE when the towers close to you haven't been unblocked.

    • Dish network down since 3:31am Signalcheck Pro reports the Dish Network, at least the site at Scioto-Darby Rd Near I-270  in Columbus Ohio, was last operational at 3:31am. I normally pickup signal from two other Dish sites as well.  Reported via downdetector.com as Boost Infinite but one is such a lonely number. Tried to manually reconnect to Dish, but network is not appearing. Hopefully scheduled maintenance.
    • Probably a lot of Midwest towers. Slight bias since Nebraska is a weird market, but there are tons of USCC sites that T-Mobile isn't yet co-located on. Think a similar situation in Iowa, Wisconsin, and Missouri. But some other markets, like yours, probably don't have that issue!
    • Sticky Customers - YES, and leave them flip to the T-Mobile PLMN when needed and they will be even more likely to Stick.
    • It seems to me that if the goal is to improve rural, the US Cellular buy-out would get them only part of the way there, considering there are plenty of rural areas that US Cellular does not serve.  But I also have a hard time reading it the way I think that article is, that the cost of this deal comes straight out of the $9 billion.  I mean, they're getting spectrum for their existing operations in US Cellular markets, including places that I wouldn't call rural.  (Roanoke, VA is the 9th largest city in the state, for example.)  It seems like some of it should be allocated to rural expansion, but certainly not the whole purchase price. There's also something to be said for getting the customer base of potentially sticky customers who have been used to US Cellular being the only game in town for potentially decades. - Trip
