Assuming the $30 plan will support lte when launched then yes it will

Meh, it'll take like 2-3 years for t mo lte to actually be good, so we'll probably all have new phones by then. But atm hspa is plenty fast IMO.

Where did you hear that?
TMobile has said time and time again it will be launched next year.

I live by a 1900 MHz tower I should see if it works.
Can't wait! I knew all along that the LTE was working. They just didn't want to get in trouble with FCC but now they are tho! Lol

Woohoo! This video here shows LTE working on the TELUS network. That's my network!!

Those were the kinds of speeds I saw on my iPhone 5. My HTC One should be here around Tues - Wed. and I'll update my post with some SS's of my speeds.

What part of Atlanta? I'm here in south Atlanta and I seem to get only 3-8 Mbps, which is fine but I've never been able to get in the 20s.

I get between 10 to 15 out here towards Athens.

Just around the house.

Speed is in my sig. I live outside San Antonio. Those were from when I had my GS3... Sadly my One hasn't even reached half of that yet. I think the One has signal issues.

I live in the smallest state no LTE yet :crying:

Missing sprint phones about now.

The service is amazing over here at Verizon.. Data speeds are significantly better in every way.. Having LTE in the middle of a lake in Idaho is a plus.. But damn the locked bootloader and all the bs rootblocking updates. They put a huge setback on erytang.. Even with the $154,8658,000,000 bounty. Just thought I'd let you guys know I was thinking about ya

Kind of feel like this is a waste of a thread and space. Since it doesn't contribute to the community.

I think it does add to the community. I'm sure there are lots of folks wondering if the grass is greener. Nice to have some real users of both services tell us the good AND bad.

Yeah but all he said was Verizon has better signal and speeds which is. common knowledge to most of us. And that Verizon blocks bootloaders, while sprint doesn't.

I didn't realize Verizon blocked boot loaders, so good to know.

I'm happy with my data speeds and coverage on Sprint. 40-60mbs is nothing to laugh at. Not many places I find don't have LTE anymore. Fast updates and no locked anything is a huge plus. Spring will be seeing many more Verizon customers in the coming months. S4/Note 3/S5 all locked from here out will bring more over.

Then you're lucky, because there are still TONS of places that don't have LTE, including major cities. I was in Denver a few weeks ago and still had to make do with 3G just like I do at home. Also, 40-60 mbs is unheard of, even on Verizon and AT&T. My home wifi isn't even that fast. If that figure is even remotely accurate, you're definitely a (very) rare exception rather than the rule.

Either a typo or BS. If anyone is actually getting those kinds of speeds on ANY mobile network in the US (let alone Sprint), I'll eat my own face.

As I pointed out earlier, that is very much the exception and not the rule. Also, you'll never get speeds like that on Sprint LTE.

My wife has vzw note 2. Here in indiana we have equal lte coverage but vzw speeds is usually 3-4 down. My sprint phone always whips vzw here. Dont dog Sprint. I avg 10-20 down and hit 30-40 down alot. This is all from our single band only phones. The only edge vzw has is lte building Penetration. All will be solved with tri band lte devices.

Idk OP, my service and bandwidth on Sprint's LTE is pretty solid, speaking as a recent convert from Verizon.
Ohh, I remember the good ol' days before Verizon lost their way. I was a Verizon customer during the release of the OG Motorola Droid, and that phone was like a development catalyst. I discovered xda thanks to that phone's development following. Everything I came to love about customizing kernels and roms came from that phone. ****, I remember what now seems like an ancient version of CyanogenMod for that OG Droid. I remember that phone out of the box was underclocked of all things, from 550Mhz down to 450 which made overclocking that thing to a meaty 1ish Ghz seem so beastly at the time lol!
Ahhhh good times :good:

Decent Sprint LTE speeds in College Park, MD
I get decent speeds (15-23 Mb down, 7-10 Mb up) on Sprint in College Park MD according to Speedtest.

Won't the speeds for the Sprint LTE towers drop for an individual once more people start utilizing it? I suspect some people are getting very high speeds because not a lot of Sprint users are tapping into the LTE bandwidth yet?

Close - it was a 600 mhz CPU underclocked to 550 mhz. I remember there were kernels that could overclock the thing all the way to 1.3 ghz. I've still never used another phone that could be overclocked that far past the native clock speed (by percentage, at least). Good times.

Band 4 lte?

When i first got my g2 i was getting about 12 to 20 mbps down n 4 to 8 up on lte now all of a sudden im getting 50+ down and 10+ up. Is this an indication that big red finally flipped the switch on band 4 in my area? I'm assuming the 24a radio wouldn't have that much of an impact unless its what is enabling band 4.

Yeah I think it's safe to say you've got band4 active now.

Its safe to say that band 4 is active here too.
Sent from my LG-VS980 using xda app-developers app

I think it's active in my area of Delaware, just pulled like 45MB down while I was at lunch, of course once I'm back in my building it drops to 2MB.

Looks like it might be here in Bismarck, ND, too... Almost 76 Mbps down. Wow!

Force band selection

Can the nexus 6 force LTE bands like Samsung?
It loves band 4 but here in Fresno band 2 penetrates better and offers better speed....

I am wondering the same thing. I wonder if you can disable Band 4 using this technique by writing to non-volatile memory and disabling band 4?

I want to disable Band 13 where I live.

I don't want to disable merely pick.....I guess we need Samsung for that

I do miss this from my old S2 days (never worked on a Nexus 4,5, or 6 since then that I've had), but I get by. Small price to pay for nexus
