I was wondering if Verizon throttles because the past 2 days my 4g has been lagging big time in Houston. Was just wondering if I was being throttled or if 4g is under going some sort of maintenance.

I'm in the same boat. My 4G data has been choking a lot, with the up arrow hanging sometimes. But then, I have used only 2.5gigs so far 17 days into my billing cycle, so I'm not sure if thats the reason.
Haven't heard of anyone on LTE being throttled, not even the guys using upwards of 20gigs. It's probably maintenance.
I don't think verizon is throttling yet. But they will as more ppl get LTE capable phones & bandwidth is strained. And ppl with grandfathered unlimited plans will be throttled first :/

Anybody else experiencing 4g lag in Houston?

Yes, in fact there's a thread right below yours.
(Not anymore, since I'm bumping yours ) it's the [Q] 4G issue thread

It sucks cause i've been bragging to my friend how fast Verizons lte is and he asks to see my phone and starts to laugh cause nothing would finish loading. Don't you hate when that happens?

I've been getting incredibly slow speeds on LTE in Knoxville. I'm talking about 2mb/s...

Hello folks
I just got my photon two days ago. By the way i miss my evo 4G.
Here is the main concerned in this mopho is doesn't work 3G at all. Any one can help me would be great appreciate

What do you mean your "3G doesn't work"? It won't register in 3G areas? Your speeds are crappy?
Ya 3G still gray doesn't work

Have you tried updating your profile? And are you in a 3G area?
Update your profile and prl. Also see if your wireless network is set to automatic.
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
Gray doesn't mean you don't have 3g. It means that you are not syncing with google.
They are in the process of upgrading the towers in certain areas i had the same problem and they told me about the tower upgrades in my zip when i called tech support. So it is more than likely that just eait it out a day or two my speeds doubled once they finished last night.

So today my phone got shut off cause I forgot pay bill n I don't have no texting no 3g data no calling but funny thing is my 4G still works... So my question is... Is sprints 4G not secured?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Just my guess but clearwire runs sprints 4g. So they prolly cant cut you from that. They can only cut you from what they own. Just my guess.

So you have no 3G data or texting but have 4G data?
Yes dope uh lol
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Actually yes. That's pretty legit. Haha. Can you still text, do MMS and all that ****?
From data apps such as google voice lets u keep your sprint number. I can't figure out there calling yet though..

That's pretty awesome. Yeah, google+ is confusing I don't even really know how to use it. haha. I just kinda bumble through.
Lmfao I'm trying out viber its both calling and text
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Too bad I don't have 4G in my area, guess I gotta go old school and just pay my bill. LOL.
Lmfao I'm paying it tomorrow hopefully lol I live off 3g but always great to know were set if sprint wants be asses lol. Off topic aren't u developer? Anything in works for ics port?
Sent from my MB855 using XDA Premium App
Dude I'm so far from a Dev. Haha. I just kinda bumble through, ask some questions, and try to figure out **** and wind up back where I started twice as pissed and three times as confused. Haha. I don't think an ICS port will be out til ICS actually comes out. Once it hits, maybe. But we gotta see when it drops.
Lmfao. I used to be that way. Now ik some **** but seems like **** moving even faster lately. Like the droid razr I love the droids n even loved the razr when I had one lol but phone isn't even a comparison to the photon so its such a shame they wasted a good name on a crappy model. I downloaded the animation though lol its hella dope! Anyways back to 4G shyt... Viber only makes calls to other ppl with viber installed on there phones. Anyone know a free calling app?

If you have google voice try groove ip. It allows calls all over data.

I'm in a hspa+ area and I'm getting about 1 down and like .1 up. It sounds like I'm getting throttled but I'm not using unlimited and I don't even use half of my 2gb plan. Any ideas on why this is happening?
Sent from my SAMSUNG-SGH-I717 using XDA App
Throttled speeds are about
.16 down
Typically unaffected upload
Tiered plans are not throttled.
At the rate people are posting this problem today I am going to guess that att is having natiinwide issues today

You are not being throttled. Probably tower issue in your area.

As some of you know Verizon just announced they are also switching to unlimited data plan. Thoughts on how this will effect sprint?

I Googled around a bit and couldn't find anything other than being grandfathered, if you want to keep unlimited, no moar subsidized phones.
Soooo Link?
They are killing off the grandfathered plan.

Verizon is actually refusing to allow unlimited data, which is why I'm actually going to switch to sprint.

It could be network upgrades.
I have been having the same issue here in Salt Lake. The Sprint store tells me it is tower upgrades in my area. I take that with a grain or 2000 of salt but it may be true.
Carrier?
On AT&T you can have signal drop if you use a non 4g apn in a 4g area.
You can put your location in here, https://network.sprint.com/ and see if there's any upgrades in the next 6 months. It's entirely possible.
Yeah I'm on sprint... I'm about to go to a sprint store and hopefully they get me a new one and it's better cause I can't even enjoy my phone like this... My galaxy s 2 didn't have this problem so idk if it's the network
