I got my first taste of LTE today, I only got about 2-3 mbps down. I was in my car driving and I had consistent LTE Palmetto north, and 8th street all the way through Flager and 87th.

I've had a couple of hiccups in service, but it's normally when I'm in buildings with poor service. Other than that, not really.... Sorry :/

Did you toggle airplane mode? When I was biking near the palmetto and between SW 40th and 56th st, my phone never switched to LTE unless I toggled airplane mode...
Yup, on both phones. I toggled airplane mode five times to be honest, but I got nothing. It was always connected to eHRPD.

In the past two days, I've passed over the 826 and Tropical Park about three times in different times of the day. I've yet to see any LTE light up on my phone. Maybe I'm just passing at the wrong times
I am glad to see all that purple on Sensorly though.

It is not unusual for the subcontractors to turn off a site at the end of their work day, and then turn it back on when they come back. Especially if they aren't even complete with it themselves. This site also wasn't on the accepted sites list this week. I don't think it's complete yet.

I figured as much since it didn't come up in either phone. Hopefully that also means that they are starting to work south too. I live right around the corner from that site.

I passed by that area last night, and nothing. Maybe they turned it off? I toggled airplane mode on both of my phones but nada!
Hopefully they turn it back on soon

I've always thought that Sprint should buy Clearwire. From what I think, they are losing more money renting out their services, rather than owning their network. This does seem to be a really great move for Sprint.

I'm just glad there is something happening down here.

There are guides on how to flash the roms with S-ON over at XDA. Have you used this yet?
I actually was not able to use it on my phone, it never rebooted the phone or anything, so I just rooted the phone the manual way. I used HTCDEV and the command prompt lol!

The whole SOff thing. As you can still flash whatever you need except for the modem parts which that's a good thing anyways, just a pain to have restore a backup, take the OTA then go back to what you need.

To be honest I have no idea how to flash roms with s-on. That has always gotten me stuck on the bootloader part of the rom. Just to know what you mean. The modem, you refer to the radios and what not?

(Sorry if these are really noob questions, but there is much that I don't know yet
)

It doesn't really matter too much from what I hear anyways.

I didn't understand what you meant, what doesn't matter?

Yeah I would wait as the process is very new for the new HBOOT.
If I had some massive cojones I would do it. But this is the only phone that I have, so I can't afford to mess it up!

Aaaaand, I just ran into a problem... They managed to do it with Linux, also I need to intentionally brick my phone. That's what I'm trying to avoid. I guess I'll just have to be a little more patient
-Luis

Then that link is for you. I believe they just figured out how to get downgrade the H-BOOT to receive S-OFF.
Yeah I just notice, thank you so much. Here's to happy rooting!
-Luis

I have h-boot 1.19
-Luis

I don't know if this is the right place to ask, but how do I get s-off? I just rooted today but I can't manage to get s-off.
Any help would be appreciated

I sure wish someone down there would log some coverages on Sensorly!!!

I might have just found a reason to go around there. If I do I'll make sure to put it in Sensorly

That tower is about 2 miles south of the Dade / Broward county line on Red Rd (NW 57th Ave.).
That's relatively close to where I live. Now if only I could just drive up there.

Hmmm I think I would have to say it was unfair to us as consumers. A lot of us bought the phone under the premise that at some point we would have 4G. For it to have never come at all, definitely had to have been a huge disappointment for all those Sprint customers. I think Sprint can just make it right just by completing their 4G network this time around. That would be good enough.
Like you though, Feech, I was lucky enough to have WiMax almost from the get go. I don't want to even think about all the customers that were suckered into upgrading their phones on the promise that 4G was coming soon to their area. Let's just hope Sprint takes WiMax as a lesson learned so we can all look forward to better things.
Premise, not promise. Just like now they don't promise you will have LTE service any times soon, but by the end of 2013.
Ofcourse it's inconsiderate of the company, but Sprint isn't the first company to do such things.
-Luis

In retrospect, I think it was a bad decision from Sprint. IMO you can't expect to have good performance from a network you don't really own and operate yourself.
-Luis
P.S. I never really got into Sprint when they had wimax, but just my opinion.

I'm not a big fan of the name Nextel... Nex-tell... Some people pronounce it Nextull down here. it's strange. At least Sprint is always pronounced Sprint lol.
Also it would probably bring up some bad memories, idk lol.

I just had someone post on the S4GRU Facebook page that they got LTE in Boynton Beach:

I hope you're right about the extensive testing they might be doing. I'll be more than happy to wait a couple of extra weeks to know that my phone will receive an update that fixes the LTE issue. I have experiences LTE down here in Miami, but the phone has only connected once on it's own. I think that is pretty shitty, tbh. When I had my sensation, granted HSPA+ isn't really anything special, I would always be connected to "4G" no matter what. I never really had problems with the signal, but HTC seems to have dropped the ball with this phone, which will hopefully, sometime soon, get it's problems fixed.
