Yes, absolutely. The issue where Play Store downloads go slower than 1X speeds, Google Talk and Hangouts video fails to connect, and all other Google services often fail to work.

 

I personally noticed this issue immediately when Lowell, MI got LTE. It was a problem from the very beginning that LTE was turned on. I was in the store, watched a customer's Photon Q switch over to 4G, and then soon after tried to update apps. They did not work. Confused, I ran a Speed Test, and got 27 Mbps. After a bit, I determined that Google services were somehow being throttled or did not connect properly.

 

The reason it seemed like traffic shaping is that it definitely seemed to happen more during certain times of the day. Again, other web browsing was not affected.

 

If no other markets are affected, it could be an issue with the Kentwood 4G Core.

 

I had filed a CTMS ticket related to it, and last I checked it is still open and pending. Sadly, I've lost the ticket number. I'll file another soon, if this keeps up.

Sorry if I am double posting, my tablet died. Did you ever hear back about the ticket you made? Kentwood is still having this issue, and it might be getting worse. I think you were right months ago. I am curious to know what you have experienced since then. 

Best regards

Have you heard any follow up with this? It's still the same in Kentwood, much worse now actually. I think you were right those months ago and its on it's way out altogether.
