Where do you live and how's the coverage? - Nexus 4 General

Att and tmo are the 2 popular carriers for n4. So it may help others to decide, if we can create a database for actual coverage.
1. Where do you live?
2. Who's your carrier?
3. How's the coverage?

I'm on T-Mobile. I've been using them for about 4 years here in Denver. I know it's not the case across the country but here in Colorado T-Mobile consistently gets ranked in the top 2 in terms of coverage (& customer service for that matter).
1. Denver, CO
2. T-Mobile
3. Excellent in Denver and as good or better than Verizon/AT&T/Sprint in the mountains.

Huge mixed bag.
I still have my vzw gnex so I can compare the two (they are both on me at all times).
When I'm in a hspa 21/42 area the data is great and not too much slower than lte.
The key to that is, when I'm in the area, because it's not that often, especially compared with Verizon's 4g footprint.
So for me it's very hit or miss. I even find myself tethering the gnex to the n4 in many spots.
The phone is stupid good though, so even if I didn't have the gnex I'd prob still keep it even with the hit or miss data.

Coverage around town is excellent.
Speeds aren't too impressive though. I never get higher than maybe 2.5 mb down and maybe 2 up. And we are supposedly hspa42. But at&t isn't any faster as they don't have hspa+ or LTE here in town.
It's pretty bad because we are a town(s) of 130,000 not even counting the 23,000 college kids. We are basically same size as Champaign-Urbana or Springfield and they both have better than 10mb downloads whenever I am there.

Ymmv with any carrier. I live in Jersey City, NJ. T-Mobile's coverage where I live rivals that of Verizon. (I should know, I have accounts, with both companies and a Rezound in my house) I also have a multi line account with T-Mobile. As far as I'm concerned, the only reason I even haz Verizon is Sparky wanted a Rezound.

Just to add: Bell and Telus have a shared HSPA+ network that operates on both 850 and 1900. So unlike T-Mobile's, it has better in-building coverage and penetration. Same frequencies as AT&T but overall faster and less burdened. Lower burden due in part to the fact that there are very few customers with grandfathered unlimited plans of any kind - Canada saw its first iPhones launch with small data caps, while AT&T started with unlimited and only years later started to shrink the data allowance.
bump.. Anyone else? There's gotta be a lot more of us Nexus 7 3G owners out there by now.
att gave me horrible speeds, but tmobile gave me much better service. much happier now.
The employee at Tmo must have been unaware they had that plan, or else I might be using it. I should'a known tho because I thought I saw they had a tablet for sale! Anyway, I'm basically happy with 3gb for $30 with AT&T, but it's nice to have options.
does this device not have "H+" icon in the status and only shows "H"? I'm using the tablet plan on Telus in Canada and it only shows "H".
I have LTE signal when I plug in the sim card into my Nexus 5.
Any suggestions?

Today I Watched My Nexus 4 Get Genuinely Confused

So I'm on a road trip, and I brought my N4 (on T-Mobile USA) along for the ride. I decided to stay the night in Savannah, GA. After checking into my hotel, I took my phone out of my pocket and saw something I've never seen before. It was showing a data connection as "3G" rather than the usual "H" for HSPA or "E" for EDGE. I had to do a double take. Curious, I went to Settings-About Phone-Status and checked the network type. It was "UMTS:3". Obviously that means T-Mobile's network refarming has happened here and 1900 MHz UMTS is live.
Here's the thing, though. The radio keeps switching between "3G" and "H" every few seconds, seemingly unable to figure out which one it wants to hold onto. The phone is still usable but I still find it annoying. Of course, the vast majority of T-Mobile phones would never experience this since they hardly ever have support for 1900 MHz, but I'm curious if other N4 owners living in areas where T-Mobile has lit up 1900 MHz UMTS are having this issue as well? In the end, the phone may be usable, but the constant switching is playing hell on my OCD!!

At least the refarming is done where you're at, I'm still impatiently waiting.

Yeah but at this rate I'm hoping they either fix this in a Nexus 4 radio update (maybe make it prefer HSPA over UMTS, but I don't know if that would cause problems outside the US), or never light it up in my home market. haha

I just came from Verizon of 12 years and a gs3. I'm on umts at my home in rural Atlanta ga. It does the same switching as you say. I just thought that was normal gsm behavior .... phone is idle then 3g is active. Phone queries the net (open browser etc...) and H kicks in.
On another note the H speeds here are almost equal to vzw lte, I'm impressed

My phone does this then pulls the h on demand I am in Detroit metro area. I still pull high download speeds and don't have a problem with the change over. Honestly until I read this post I thought this was normal. Do do a speed test see if it is slower or faster then your use to.

I find it wierd that you've never seen the 3G label. Normally you camp on 3G (UMTS) and it'll flip to "H" for HSPA+ when data's transferring either up, down, or both. This has been normal over the years, until there were modifications on T-Mobile's side to display 4G all the time for devices that were HSPA+ capable.

GS2, Samsung edited to reflect 4G. Most customers would be perplexed by the constant camping on 3G, then flipping to H (HSPA+ which is branded as T-Mobile 4G), so the just modified their network bits in their OS to reflect 4G all the time. As far as the Nexus S, that's just a 3G device not capable of the HSPA+ bandwidth (it topped out at 7mbps).

Sounds like you're running an AOSP rom on your N2. 3G for UMTS, H for HSPA+, and 4G for the LTE. If you were on a stock TMo ROM, it'd be 4G for UMTS and HSPA+, then 4G LTE for LTE.
Important to note is that the status bar icons ate just that. . .icons. You could actually modify these to display whatever you wanted. If I wanted it to say 8G when on LTE, I'd just have to make a custom icon and bake it in. Doesn't mean I actually have an 8G network.
Sent from my Nexus 4 using XDA Premium HD app
thats normal behavior, it changes to H when there is data flow. it just depends on the area and the signal/coverage in the area. on a custom rom, i see it change from a H to a H+ all the time(when data is flowing). rarely, i see a 3G.

This is exciting, SoftBank isn't messing around

Out of his ass....must have Sprint confused with T-Mobile. Sprint home coverage covers somwhere around 70% of the U.S. geographically and around 85-90% of the population currently. When NV is completed, around 95% of the population will be covered by 800,1900,2300mhz (tri-band)LTE and 800mhz voice.

Sadly I doubt that this will have any benefit for my area. Despite being within 4 miles of 2 large casinos Sprint coverage in this area is spotty at best. I doubt if any municipalities with less than 1 million residents will ever get any form of Sprint LTE.
Verizon has LTE in practically the entire state but their pricing and customer service are so crappy that I would not even consider switching to them.

One of the problems I have already been seeing is that you now get charged extra for data roaming in places where it used to be included in your plan. A lot of peeps I know are getting let out of contracts because of that. And from what I'm hearing it actually doesn't seem like roaming signal in general is as good as it was just a few months ago.
