Will New Orleans,LA get 4G? - HTC EVO 3D

I was hoping maybe by the end of this year.

The hornets will find an owner before the city gets 4G.

Visit Clear.com/coverage and if your area has a gray clear circle then your area will get 4G Wimax

I live in Prairieville and we don't have 3g. To get 3g in BR, you have to live within a stone's throw of LSU. Otherwise, your roaming on another carrier's 3g.

Slidell has 3g only, I can confirm.

I was in New Orleans June 27-July 4 and can confirm that in the downtown and French Quarter areas there is 4g coverage.

Where at??? I went down on canal yesterday and got nothing.....ef10 modem.....I'm gonna flash back to ec05 and ef02 and try tomorrow .....

I don't remember all the places that I was able to connect, I believe I was getting coverage around the Audubon Aquarium (outside) and also just barely in our hotel room, but it was on the inside of the building. I didn't attempt too many times just because I needed the phone to last all day since we were out any about and there was not access to a charger. The Clear coverage map shows coverage there and since I had just gotten the phone, I recall trying see if I could get connected. I do not have any speed test results to verify though.

I don't live that far from you guys, Biloxi/Gulfport area, and they are testing it here now. Keesler airforce base can already get it so I don't see why it should not be in a major city like Orleans real soon.

Near the aquarium???? SOUNDS LIKE A GOOD REASON 2 GO 2 HARRAHS ON A MONDAY!!!!!

My 4G won't work?

My phone says it is connected to 4G with 2 or 3 bars but it makes me disconnect from all my apps like Skype. If I turn it off 3g kicks in and everything works. Ive turned it off 3 or 4 times. I can't find a support number. What do I do?

As the sprint rep would tell you
Please stand on your head and with your left hand grab your balls and cough... You should be connected...
Did you try a reset/battery pull?
If all else fails do a factory reset.. you'll lose yur apps and **** but if you have them synced to Google after you reset they will restore them selfs

Sprint mobile data keeps dropping

This just started happening a few days ago. Mobile data drops out..no 3g or 1x. Seems to happen on multiple roms, think its a sprint issue. Anyone else?

Try calling sprint and have them reset your signal.

Welcome to Sprint's 3g lol
Yea sprint is whack in some areas.. some areas it's decent. T-mobile 3g is always consistent and heck even faster than sprint 4g sometimes. They need to improve service because it's not reliable.
Its been like that for me since my release day OG...

will drop pick up in a couple days or get another carrier like Verison, flash Evo 3d to Straight Talk
yeah... sprint 3G has sucked for me for like the last 6 months. I think they are intentionally throttling down and degrading 3G quality in towers where 4G is available. that seems to be the trend I am noticing. This way, it encourages us to move off of those channels and free up traffic for others who dont have 4G. Just a theory. But my worst 3G speed / signal is in areas where 4g is available.
I broke my 3d and had to reactivate my old Hero but i cant get any data cuz the area where my account is active (Dallas 469 area code) is having issues so even all the way down here in houston i cannot get my phone to provision on the network because its pulling from Dallas where the problem is. So i have no data at all!!!! Rep said it would be next friday b4 its fixed but they will credit for the time im without data. WTF?
Sprint offered

LTE in Mulvane, Ks

I just experienced 4g while driving through the tiny town of Mulvane, KS. It's a town of about 15000 right south of Wichita, a city of about 500000 and Wichita doesn't have it yet...lol. must be a test tower in Mulvane. Anyways here's the three speedtests I ran with 4/5 bars.
Sent from my EVO 4G LTE using xda app-developers app
A little slow, but acceptable.
If the town is that small, it means there is a little hope for my town to one day see LTE. Supposedly we are part of the second roll out phase in the Nashville market - but I'll believe it when I see it.
Yeah I'll believe it when I see it too. When I first got my Epic 4g they told me I'd see 4g in my area within 3-4 months, 2 years later... I see nothing. I'd be happy with just the better 3g speeds.

The tower in Mulvane has had 4G on air for awhile now. They must have started to unblock LTE.

Every Sprint tower, regardless of location, will be upgraded with Network Vision to include enhanced 3G and 4G LTE.
The 4g ends right at derby when heading north. It felt close to wifi and now i miss it. Hurry up and flip the switch. I hear they have a tower going near hillside and k96 too... Should be soon you'd think. Then again there was a wimax tower downtown for a bit but Wichita never really got it.

My speeds are pretty much not even LTE. In fact I was getting just as good speeds with my non-LTE Atrix 4g. From my bedroom I get about 1mbps and the upload...well if it registers at all I get 300kbps. Admittedly I get terrible terrible reception here even on my old phone. At my grandmas house where I get 3-4 bars I got up to 8mbps per second on one or two tests but often it was around 3mbps. The upload there never got above 600-700kbps. I live in Orange County, CA so maybe there are so many users that that's just as fast as we get...or maybe it's this phone. I dunno yet. Gonna try it at work(Disneyland) tomorrow and see how it works.
I attached a txt file with my tests...on most of them it says HSDPA, dunno what that even means.
Sounds like you do not have LTE in your area yet. The signal icon on your status bar will say 4G LTE if you have it.

But we do have LTE, it says on the coverage tracker that we do and my dad has the HTC One X and he gets LTE. Now that you mention it though it says 4G at the bar at the top of the screen and not LTE. Is it supposed to say LTE?
Yes it does say it right under the 4G. Go back and look at some of the screen shots. If you are both on At&t you should go to the store because you should have it also.

I don't know the AT&T network but on Rogers, Bell & Telus in Canada you need to specify an LTE APN. The HSPA/+ APN you have configured by default with your SIM probably won't support or recognize LTE service speeds, and even my 'LTE network' microSIM didn't import this automatically, I had to manually input the APN.
33/1.9 I wonder what's up with my upload speed.
Here is my test from Little Rock AR

4g and 4g LTE on vzw

I live in an area where I'm used to getting 1x and a bar of 3G, however today I noticed 4G and just now an icon popped up saying 4G LTE. Whats the difference? Given, vzw store said we would get 4g within a few months but didn't expect it this soon

I understand your question. It's the same thing on VZW. I think you just missed the LTE part the first time.

At times I see the "LTE" part of the icon disappear and reappear. I've noticed no difference in speed.

I wonder if you have an overlap of network types between VZW and another carrier like AT&T or something like that?
the DNA can only connect to Verizon's LTE spectrum IIRC. It can do basically all GSM/CDMA but not LTE.
I'm wondering if maybe he has a custom ROM or a custom status bar. If he is stock then that icon change is weird. And as stated, the DNA can only connect to Verizon's LTE. It does not support LTE from AT&T as it runs on a different frequency.

Shouldn't be a difference between 4G and 4GLTE. Your area is probably getting prepped for 4G. Expect it to go on and off for several days, even weeks, before it is officially turned on.

You need to call tech support and complain, that's no where near the speeds you should be getting. If you call tech support usually they'll come out and figure out what's wrong.
Sent from my HTC6435LVW using xda premium
Seeing how your area just got LTE, expect it to be slow for awhile. When my area got it a year and a half ago, it was pretty sucky for the first few weeks. Most likely they are setting everything up. Give it some time and it should start getting faster.
If you do live in an area that has had LTE for more than a month and you still have this speed, you should call Verizon.
