gameaddict8 Posted January 11, 2013 Share Posted January 11, 2013 Mee too I cannot wait untill LTE starts rolling here in Riverside County, I get decent speeds on 3G but when LTE rolls out my Evo will finally be put to the test When I went to school at ucr, service was rock solid. I might be working in clairmont soon, any news for nv in that area? don't see anything on sensorly or the sb/riverside topic. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
smotrs Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 (edited) My buddy got 27 down/10 up near the Chinese consulate the other day. i am amped for the LA Metro LTE launch! I was in the Whittier area visiting my GF's family on 3 different weekends and averaged 20+D/8+U. Can't wait to see what it does when it's live and configured perfectly.

hurricanefreak Posted January 13, 2013 Share Posted January 13, 2013 I would be happy with 20 down speeds but I just wish the general population does not abuse the use of unlimited...I see teens all the time steaming YouTube videos using like a free spotify service, not even looking at the video... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewminerforgold Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Any news of LTE in Red lands CA? Also I ran a speed test with my Galaxy Nexus and my dads iPhone right next to each other and the iPhone got around .7 MPs and my galaxy nexus would get .09 mps. Wierd. But I'm more concerned about the LTE in Redlands Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MacinJosh Posted January 19, 2013 Share Posted January 19, 2013 Redlands will never get LTE!!! ;p Redlands will get LTE, just like every city in the Sprint Nationwide network. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Forum Runner Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kisong Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 I was in Koreatown this weekend and got a solid 4G signal near Olympic/Western. It was around 6mbps down/1mbps up. Much better than 3G service, but not the 20+/10+ I was expecting. I wonder what the 4G speeds will be like in the IE once it finally rolls out here.

You likely had a pretty weak LTE signal. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/topic/2040-bars-lie-for-lte-signal-strength-how-to-determine-your-actual-lte-signal-strength/ Robert via Nexus 7 with Tapatalk HD Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kisong Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Interesting ... http://shop2.sprint.com/en/shop/why_sprint/4g/4g_lte_plan_details.html This sounds like 6-8mbps download is going to be the typical speed ... 25mbps being peak speeds.

pyroscott Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 Interesting ... http://shop2.sprint....an_details.html This sounds like 6-8mbps download is going to be the typical speed ... 25mbps being peak speeds. They only guarantee 6-8 because most people will not understand that they need really good signal to get the max speeds. Also, in an area where the cell sites are loaded up, speeds will start to slow into the 6-8 Mbps range. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dkoellerwx Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 So do you have LTE? If so, what is your typical download/upload speed? Can you send a screenshot? At my parents in KC with LTE fully deployed in their local area, I get 10-15Mbps at my house at any given time. Around town, I get have gotten speeds up to 32Mbps, though it's typically between 10 and 20. I don't spend a lot of time doing speed tests, as I know that since I have LTE, it will be fast enough for anything I need to do. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kisong Posted January 21, 2013 Share Posted January 21, 2013 That's awesome! So it sounds like it is reasonable to expect 10-20mbps download speeds when LTE is finally deployed in the Inland Empire! Can't wait! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeroFred Posted January 22, 2013 Share Posted January 22, 2013 6-8 is still super fast. Plenty fast enough for your phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

drewminerforgold Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 (edited) The tower I am connected to in Netowrk Signal Info app says eHRPD. Does this mean that the tower i am connected to is going to be upgraded to LTE? Edited January 24, 2013 by drewminerforgold Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewminerforgold Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 What I meant to say was that I just started picking up this eHRPD signal. Is this a good sign for LTE in my area? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacinJosh Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 What I meant to say was that I just started picking up this eHRPD signal. Is this a good sign for LTE in my area? eHRPD has been available since last fall for the whole market as I had it driving around the market back in October/November. I've noticed the Galaxy Nexus doesn't like to maintain eHRPD like other phones do. the Riverside/San Bernardino market has been in active deployment for a while now. LTE has not been enabled just yet, but it should start coming live soon for the Inland Empire. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the eHRPD means the tower is upgraded? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacinJosh Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 No, eHRPD is a software upgrade that allows a soft hand-off between EVDO and LTE. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewminerforgold Posted January 24, 2013 Share Posted January 24, 2013 Does anyone know if there are any towers in Redlands that are LTE equipped that just haven't launched yet? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shendrickson21 Posted January 25, 2013 Share Posted January 25, 2013 Anyone have info for 4G in the perris, ca area? My 3G really sucks alway going on and off. I'm using the note 2. Thanks Sent from my SPH-L900 using Tapatalk 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drewminerforgold Posted January 27, 2013 Share Posted January 27, 2013 I have been connected to the evdo a network since I got my phone. Then a few days ago my phone switched to eHRPD for a few hours and it switched back to evdo a and has been ever since. What does this mean?
