http://www.androidcentral.com/htc-publishes-jelly-bean-qa-2012-devices-first-excluding-one-v Still no mention of EVO, but it appears to be soon.

I looks like my toggling days have ended. 4G now shows up when available, and holds the signal for a while. Nice...

Success...only 1 month and 2 days off.

I didn't notice last night, just pulled my phone outta my pocket and it was connected. I'll check that next week. The Mall of GA area even close to the tower (the one you documented) I have to toggle no matter what. Same with Braselton & Discover Mills area.

RE LTE issues: The weird thing about this, is there is one tower I have found, where my 4G connects automatically without toggling. But for the most part, I have to toggle to get LTE in other areas. In another forum (same as where my last thread came from) a few people called HTC support, and they claimed there is no update scheduled in the near future.

I'm guessing this ain't happenin today.

I have a friend in Charlotte who is also a sprint customer stating Sprint signal is rapidly improving, he thinks it because of the DNC convention. (He's a republican, so everything is the Dems fault, except for this) LOL

Was surprised with 4G signal yesterday in Buford. Oddly enough, when I looked at my phone I saw a 4G signal momentarily, then it dropped. So I then toggled, and bang it locked. Was able to stream HBOGo while watching my kids practice! This appears to be on the completed maps as AT03XC178. I posted in the HTC EVO LTE forum that we "may" get an update tomorrow which stated improvements to LTE signal. Fingers crossed!

If this guy is to be believed, the update will be available 8/22. (Wednesday) http://forums.androi...ing-8-22-a.html Evo 4G LTE software update coming next week Customer Initiated: 8/22/12, Available via Network Push: 8/28/12 Enhancements/Fixes: -Browser randomly closes from bookmarks -Minor Bluetooth fix -Latest version of Google Wallet -LTE scanning improvement

Of course I had to do the LTE shuffle (toggle) to get it.

Found some new 4G @ Discover Mills near 85 today. Confirming some of the Lawenceville mapping.

How do you get to this file?

That is an interesting...where did you see this scan interval info?

I wonder if Sprint would trade me an S3 for my phone? I hear the S3 gets Jelly Bean at the end of August. This LTE toggle issue is a deal killer for me.

That's ok...we don't see it much either!

How ironic...my phone just rebooted...dang! The error report states "System Crash" and gives this enormous log file that you can preview. I wasn't even using it, just sitting beside me...

No wifi or reboot issues here, however LTE is a different story.

That's great news! I'll tell you who needs it on the interstate...I do. I carpool daily to downtown, and provided I'm not driving, I'm typically looking for 4G signals. Wimax 4G was always sproradic thru here, I would get it but not long enough to do anything with it. Thus far on my EVO, I haven't been able to get any LTE on 85 or downtown so I'm looking forward to having it for the commute. I just want to rub my buddy's AT&T Ipod in the dirt by streaming HBO Go, in HD of course on that big EVO screen. I really hope the software update lands this week. Thanks for the info..

Question...I'm fairly noobish to the tower game, but if I think I've located a tower serving LTE, and it isn't listed on the completed sites, past due sites, or planned new sites, what is it? Can you verify it is an LTE site, and what do you need to do so? I've read repeatedly about the apps be it CDMA field test or open signal being highly inaccurate, but if they give me a general sense of direction of the tower, and I drive in that direction and find a tower visible, with no others around and I get LTE under it, then I suspect it's the real deal. Does that mean Sprint hasn't accepted it yet? I'm just trying to verify if my dead reckoning method is working. BTW from the maps update, I can see why I got nothing in downtown Atlanta or on my commute down I-85. Looks like it's coming soon though!

4G Speedtest in Braselton GA West of Chateau Elan. EVO, toggled to receive. Best speed yet, 2nd LTE area. (BTW, Braselton was once home to Kim Basinger, for you other creatures from the 80's)

This image to illustrate my point....(click to expand)

I hope so. I just parked underneath a tower that I documented last week serving 4G to the mall area. Toggling again didn't let me connect from the same spot I got it last week. So I drove East, still couldn't connect. Rebooted my phone, and then toggled, and got it. That's just too much work in a car while you're driving to get 4G. So I pose a question to those knowledgable regarding these NV towers. What kind of pattern should they be outputting? Would it be an omni directional pattern meaning North East South & West equally from the tower, or are they more focused and directional, meaning just East or just South? The tower I'm talking about serves an area about 1-2 miles East of the tower, but driving about 1/8 mile or less N of this tower, I lose 4G. What would be the reasoning behind that? I've got screenshots if anybody is that interested.

My wife reports a 4G LTE signal in Braselton, GA, (West of Chateu Elan) and ran a speedtest with 12 UP & 8 down on her Gnex. Curiously, the 4G tower that feeds the Mall of GA I've been talking about, for some reason I can't connect to when I drive by it daily, using the toggle method I described last week. I'm working this weekend, so I hope to test this further on Monday or Tuesday. That EVO OTA update can't get here soon enough, I hope if fixes the 3G/4G signal threshold issue we've all documented.

Says its similar to the update the Gnex got yesterday. http://phandroid.com/2012/07/27/sprint-galaxy-nexus-and-samsung-galaxy-s3-receive-ota-updates-evo-4g-lte-to-follow/
