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

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.

Like the previous guy said you get edge speeds unless tmobile has refarmed the 1900 MHZ in your area for HSPA speeds.
Below is the list of cities where tmobile has refarmed the 1900 MHZ.

I should be getting something since I live in Boca Raton, FL and that's not too far from Ft. Lauderdale, one of the cities listed on the link Kirdroid provided.

Does your phone stay connected at all times? Mine disconnects from the network rather frequently for no reason and the data connection is spotty on certain apps.

My connection is spotty too, but that really depends on the area. On areas closer to the Antenna it stays connected most of the time. But where I live my experience is close to yours.
I am on T-Mobile, did the Nexus conversion, and I can confirm that I am unable to get 3G on the 1700mHz band. I live next to a T-Mobile tower, and my last phone (TMOUS HTC One S) got 3G signal without a problem, so I know it isn't the area. I am only able to get EDGE and I have the Nexus 4 modem M9615A-CEFWMAZM_2.0.1700.33.

Miami is probably already refarmed with the 1900mHz band. Where I live about 40 minutes from Tampa, I do not get 3G from my home, which is near a T-Mobile tower.

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.
