Not sure if this has been posted before, but a little over a week ago i stopped by a sprint store and talked to the rep about the Evo having issues connecting to LTE. He looked up the issue and confirmed that Sprint/HTC are aware of the issue and that there will be a fix in the next update. I took a picture of his screen...

Saw this today while driving inbound on the Kennedy expressway near Division. Please tell me those are Sprints NV panels =)

I commute daily on the Edens from the South Loop to the north shore. It's true that only a small stretch just west of Winnetka on the Edens has LTE. However, just a few months ago 3G was so bad that I couldn't stream Spotify/Pandora. Now they're streaming great on 3g with just a few hiccups near the Circle interchange and the Edens junction. That to me is more important than LTE.

Oh wow, that's my neck of the woods. It's probably the UIC/University Village tower. It's too bad my Evo wouldn't pick that up unless I airplane cycle the phone. =(

Got the following speeds up by the Great Lakes Naval training center. Was just a few hundred yards from the tower and my Evo didn't pick up LTE until I cycled airplane mode. This is BS and it needs to be addressed very soon!!!! Uploaded with ImageShack.us

Interesting. Perhaps the Evo's LTE connection threshold is set too high? I say that because as soon I would cycle through airplane mode and get an LTE signal, I would perform speed tests resulting in at least the 3-4Mbps down range. The Evo should be connecting sooner if it can attain those speeds. IMO, 3-4Mbps is more than usable.

This! I was out in the far west burbs this weekend and was mapping LTE with Sensorly but I had to keep cycling through airplane mode on my Evo to get it to pick up LTE where I knew there was LTE! What a PITA and major disappointment! I hope there's an update for the Evo soon to correct this.

Sweet! I'm just 2 miles north of that blip! I'll be heading to the far west suburbs today and I'll be running Sensorly all day in hopes of reporting some new spots.

Chicago and Boston LTE discoverable on Sept 21

I was in Batavia, IL yesterday for a 5k and there was plenty of LTE. My fastest speedtest was achieved at the Costco parking lot in St. Charles. Uploaded with ImageShack.us -
I'm getting eHRPD in the south loop but the speeds are meh.
