I live in Tampa. I was naturally excited to hear that Tampa was one of the five lucky cities to receive Sprint Spark. I wonder if this is the day Sprint has decided to flip it on. What do you all think?

Last I read the HTC One does NOT support this new network.
Get a G2 or a N5 then you can use it.....

I was just curious as to what download and upload rates everyone's getting.
Sent from my LG-P925 using xda premium
I'm getting anywhere between 1.5Mbps and 3.5Mbps I just made the switch from T-Mobile and a Mytouch 4G where I was getting upwards of 5Mbps no matter where I was and sometimes close to 10Mbps. I have to admit I'm kinda disappointed, I can't even watch HQ YouTube videos without pausing the video and letting it load. : /

Live on the very edge of "4G" coverage according to at&t map. Can go fro one side of room to other and not even get 3g. Totally stock and unrooted, so the settings for full "4g" are not on.have got up to 8mb when closer to town.

To continue for the closed thread in the dev section.
Hello, my name is quarlow, and I'm a flashaholic.
The i777 (original Galaxy S II) is the premier flashaholics phone. Not only is there 5 stock based ROMs, there is CM7 and MIUI, plus its the only US version that can port i9100 ROMs to. The skyrocket may be the same ghost town as the Thrill. Its a good phone with a niche feature. Thrill has 3D, skyrocket has LTE. But in every other way the i777 is a better phone. None of the i777 devs will be moving, they have all confirmed staying with the i777.
If you really want LTE, and live in an LTE area get the vivid. I bet the vivid will pick up the Inspire crowd. But, it still remains to be seen if the vivid has an unlocked bootloader, so it may be just as bad as the skyrocket.
On a side note I see the same speed on my i777 that I saw on my Thrill. About 2-3 Mbps down, 1.5 up. In my area they have HSPA+, and those speeds are 50-75% higher than what I got on my captivate is the same place.

I'd go with t-mobile. No matter where I've lived it had best service and quality and speeds.
Its 3g is normally better then my 4g speeds and my 4gs speeds are blown outta the water compared to sprint 4g.
But might just be my area
Well I know my area has terrible t mobile service Verizon says I should have good coverage but yet I get terrible service when my friend gets great service and iv been threw every step of tech support did not help also got my phone replaced did not help I was just wondering if Samsung put a bad antenna or radio in there note 3 I want to keep the note 3 am willing to switch carriers but don't want to be stuck with the same problem
What area are u located in my area code is 95621 may they have gotten better since iv had them

FTFY. You're now in the correct forums.
Hi, does anyone know if Sprint's coverage works in Niagara Falls on the Canadian side of the border? If not, what are the options? Thanks!

Most likely it will. I used to live in Toronto and people were using American satellite providers like DirecTV/Dish Network to get American channels. (not sure if it's legal though lmao)

Just wanted to give a quick update on Sprint's coverage in Niagara Falls. It works great for at least the first few blocks on the Canadian side, with Lte, sometimes dropping to 3g. All the tourist spots are covered. So, in my experience, no need for a Canadian SIM if you're just going to see the falls and attractions.

Where? And wow I guess I do need an upgrade. Regular 4g is slow compared to that!

Use DL Booster and you can see speeds like 75+ Mbps! Depends on Wifi+LTE speed though.
are you in a wideband area or is this only with the download booster (wifi+lte)
I was actually able to hit 100mbps on the T mobile network no download booster on speedtest. Ya i know doesnt mean much without a picture but I'm at work. Either way I was amazed

Jeeze, the most I have ever gotten on Tmo in my entire life is like 30mbs down, lol.. is that a constant speed?
100mbps? I'd have to see it to believe it. I have gotten over 50 before, but nothing close to a 100. I have gotten over 75 with Verizon. Honestly, it's fast but not like a huge difference from 30 imho.

Here you go I was blown away. My T-Mobile service has been better where I live than my Verizon service stronger signal and faster data.
I couldn't figure out how to upload a picture so here's a link from my result that I shared to Ookla. In that area it was pretty constant between 80-100mbps. At home I only get 10, but that's about as low as it gets in my area.
http://www.speedtest.net/my-result/a/1231714750
Well, I guess I shall eat crow. That's impressive!
Here's mine.. Network 3 in UK 8
T-Mobile , Jacksonville, FL
This was LTE only no WiFi Booster.
I have SERIOUS dreadful speeds with T-Mobile . I usually get 2mbps download and 1 upload. (Yea thats horrible) all around Denver the highest speed I've ever had while on LTE would be 10mbps. I'm seriously thinking about leaving tmobile for VERIZONs badass service. A friend has Verizon and he's speeds are consistent. Check out the screen shot from here at work. It went from bad to absolutely worse. Can't loud crap. And it isn't the ROM fault. Calling T-Mobile won't fix nothing because there techs are seriously retarded. I've tried what I could to no avail. Maybe there's some kind of tool or something I could use. Speeds have been horrible Ever since I got the note 4 and I even pay the extra $20 for what they call "unlimited" I could take my $80 and go with Verizon and pay an extra $40 for TRULY UNLIMITED, EVERYWHERE. I have a phantom netgear router thats 60 Mbps no matter how many people are connected or what they are doing so going from steady 60 to less than 1 its ridiculous I got a fast phone with horrible service. I could have the fastest phone in the world. But under T-Mobile it becomes the slowest!!!
