I actually found a better one https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.brownent.switchitSent From EVO LTE

What was the name of the app in the market to force it on LTE only? I know about the code. Just wondering about the other way

I can't tell you how many times a week I see you post this. I almost think that you should make it (or a link to it) part of your signature.

 

 

 

My hat goes off to your ability to communicate solely on texts! Seriously, I wish my friends would do that with me. I hope you at least give HD voice a shot when it comes out. :-P

Lol I actually do talk on the phone here and there but with working two jobs I'm only able to text haha. And don't worry ill test HD voice once it comes around hehe

This was the 1x site you were connected to. Even though NetMonitor will say "Network: LTE" when you have a LTE connection, it will only show the BSID, signal strength and map location for the 1x site you are connected to. These will often be different, especially in urban/suburban locations.

Also I connected to LTE right by the mall on grand right next to the shell gas station but soon as you actually drive by the mall it disappears :/ oh and there is brief LTE on greenbay and yorkhousen. soon as you past the 711 or w.e gas station that is you will get lte.

Can you tell me which towers you guys are connecting to? According to the maps, there are only two towers that have 4G- the one near Green Bay and Buckley at the training center and the one at Washington and Keller/McAree.

 

I saw blips of 4G while I was heading north on 94 towards Grand. I only started seeing these brief connections once I was approaching/past Buckley. I’m currently on the west side of 94 right across from Gurnee Mills and only picking up 3G.

I live off McAree and sunset so I get LTE in my bedroom 5Mbps-12Mbps and also get it once in a while in the living room around 2.5-3Mbps. When I use netmonitor it says im connected to the Robert Mcclory bike path tower in beach park. Have no clue if its accurate or not though.

Ya, but still I'll agree with the original post- all that speed is of little use to me if I'm data capped, and if was was to download any large files I think in real world scenarios it would be negligible because you can only get so much bandwidth from most servers you are trying to download from. Now maybe it would be a plus if doing multiple data heavy tasks like download and stream or something but I don't even want to imagine the monthly charges I'd rack up by going over my cap on Verizon or at&t.

 

Does the EVO have a much bigger battery than the GSIII, because I don't think there's any way I could get that battery life duration on my GSIII, or is there something I'm not doing or managing the settings because I feel like my battery goes quick and isn't terrible but definitely not getting close to Samsung's stated battery life???

+1 I'm like a kid in a candy store cant wait for more towers to get LTE. So far I only get it in my room. And just got back from driving around using sensorly so other users can see where 4G is active. Btw this is the speedtest in my room

That's awesome two days until ill be able to pick up LTE!!

This is no indication of LTE imminence in Southern Wisconsin. The sites in Southern Wisconsin near the Illinois border must have eHRPD when the adjacent Chicago sites across the border in Illinois go live. In order for LTE data to seamlessly transfer to 3G data when someone crosses the border (or vice versa), then all the sites they would transfer to must have eHRPD. Otherwise there will be a hard handoff. This is true of all LTE market boundaries. eHRPD is being deployed in many non LTE markets where there is any chance of being handed off from a LTE connection.

While exciting, eHRPD arrives in a market well in advance of NV

True it covers the whole town of Kenosha while they won't get LTE until Milwaukee does. But I'm excited because the other day I read the article and it listed my town. http://s4gru.com/index.php?/blog/1/entry-321-sprint-marketing-releases-a-4g-lte-city-list-where-work-is-under-way/

Super excited my whole drive home from my first job in Kenosha Wisconsin my phone has stayed connected to ePHRD towers. Even inside my house in Waukegan Illinois. It's just a matter of time

I also started hearing the clicking noise yesterday around 9:30am I was getting out of work. Didn't happen when my grandma called, but did happen again while talking to my mom. First call was in Kenosha leaving my first job then second one was leaving my other job in gurnee

That's perfect since I live in one of the towns that's mentioned haha

I was getting it in Gurnee for a while, then it recently stopped, but I'm still getting it in Arlington Heights.
