I just did a fun test. On my EVO 4g LTE, I went through the engineering screen and turned it to LTE only. I was in a known LTE area. It went to 4g and the icon showed full bars. I drove to my workplace where there is no 4g and did speed tests the whole way. Steadily declined from 10 all the way to 2mbps down. Ping ended up in the 400ms range until it finally disconnected. The WHOLE TIME my phone showed full bars... Why??????

I am worried about this as well. Not sure why o keep getting bumped to 3g and it won't go back unless I "force" it. I am willing to contact them, although vanilla technical support wouldn't seem to help any. Better contact???

Yep! Just took a couple minutes and it was all off.

Hmm... I'm still connecting to evdo after doing this???

Hahaha, just enough info to be dangerous!

My airrave has superior signal output than my WiFi router... In the back bedroom, WiFi is in and out. Being able to use the aorrave for my data at night in bed and it be 100% without having to run cat5 and a new router to my bedroom is nice. Obviously I could benefit from the airrave having LTE in this situation.

I have generally the same service with my EVO LTE as I did with my Of EVO. I'm in San Antonio, maybe its a region specific issue? 3g speeds are faster than my wife's epic touch 4g.

Anyone see this? http://www.androidguys.com/2012/06/25/t-mobile-and-verizon-ink-spectrum-deal/

Also, my EVO LTE never asked for an unlock code. weird...

This looks like the LTE scan settings to me??? http://db.tt/fefmr19S

I may have to drive that way today :-). still getting lte there?

sounds awesome. if that's what my phone was doing earlier, it took about 10 seconds max to connect back to evdo. bar meter was showing 4 or 5 bars, didn't seem to change in relation to the data indicator.

And by 1x I mean the voice 800 band, does sprint carry any data on that band?

I just asked a similar question in a different thread, short answer is both. the EVO LTE will even connect to a 1x and evdo at the same time. The real question is what does the signal meter report?
