Band 41 Spark since Feb this year with speeds of 5Mbps dl is ridiculous. Recommend check with Sprint on that.

 

Spark in my area activated 2nd Quarter this fiscal year with speeds from 40-74 Mbps. Its been consistent.

I agree my speed is rediculous. I spoke with Sprint, and they "reprovisioned" my phone. That bumped the speed up to about 12 Mbps for about half an hour. Then back down to 5 Mbps.

Sprint turned on Spark in my area in mid-February (Alexandria, VA outside of Washington, DC). I am on Band 41. However, I am getting only about 5 mbs download speed and a tenth of that upload. That seems to be the same speed as un-Sparked Band 25. Has anyone else noticed this on the G2? Is there a way to increase the speed on the phone? Or do I have to wait for a network upgrade. In that case, I thought the network upgrade was Spark. Apparently not.

That best buy price is awesome.. If I wasn't so broke I would jump at getting that for my mom who is still on the LG Optimus G still. But have, eCSFB issues on my band 41 tower and no WiFi calling for the G2. All calls routinely go to voicemail. Not gonna fly with her. But would make for a nice back up device

As for wifi calling, I use Hangouts Dialer. It dials out on wifi and sounds great.
