4G available in NYC!!! (Long Island City / Queens Area)

I'm located in NYC and I been turning on the 4G on and off all weekend in different areas (Bronx, Brooklyn, now Long Island City (in Queens)) and I have a 4G connection. Did a speedtest.net test (app in marketplace) and below are my results...
1st Test -
Down: 2.93 Mbps
Up: .96 Mbps
2nd Test -
Down: 1.55 Mbps
Up: .86 Mbps
3rd Test -
Down: 1.78 Mbps
Up: .96 Mbps
All other NYCers test your 4G availability and report back.

They are testing in the NYC area

About time, doesn't effect me though, lol
Too bad you don't get the full 3Mbps (cap) yet.

I am down on 27th street and got nada...

i'm at 38th and 5th and not picking up a 4g signal.

Down on 28th and Park Ave. and nothing yet. Just scanning...

i'm in Cobble Hill, Brooklyn and don't pick up a network.

Nothing in bensonhurst

Nothing in Financial district...

nothing in bensonhurst brooklyn :-(

Nothing in Jackson Heights / East Elmhurst

nothing in Midwood Brooklyn

I'm in Center City Philadelphia and the record for me so far is 4.9mb/s. I am normally in the 3.8-4.2 area so far. At work outside of Philadelphia I'm only getting 2.2

im on 34 st and 5th ave no 4g here

Also in Jackson Hts. (which incidentally is not too far from LIC where the OP described 4g goodness) and nothing here as of now.

Hey guys
Good news, I happened to be around 59th St and Madison Av and I picked a full 4G from Sprint, however it kept dropping off. I guess they were testing the area. I was working around there for 2 hrs and kept getting the 4G available in this area. I connected for like 30 Secs but then it dropped
Hurray Sprint

How does the 4G network alert work? Sound? Notifications bar only?
thanks

Nothing in Union Square or in Brooklyn Heights. At least today .

You can set it to a Not.. bar under the 4G settings.

Isn't nyc slated for the end of the year? How come you picked up a usable 4g signal anyway?

Have you run speedtests?

No 4G in Brooklyn

I was in Manhattan this eve and it was working when I posted this thread. I am in east elmhurst now and its not working I had 3 bars on queens boro bridge. I'll try again today when I goto Manhattan.
I think they had it on at night for testing purpose. YouTube was loading in a snap.

Nothing at Exchange Place in Jersey City (same towers as downtown Manhattan).

Nothing here
No 4g on 12th and broadway.

Here is the proof. Today!

If you want to know when 4g will be in your area just check with Clear Wireless. Their high speed wireless is bought from sprint wimax according to the Sprint near me in Philadelphia.

How come no one else is picking it up just confirmed it works on queens blvd until bqe.

4G in Maryland/DC

I get 4G outside my job in Greenbelt. Don't have anything at home in Clinton though.

Yea I think they just testing it out

I have actually picked up full 4g signal all around the beltway. Gaithersburg, Rockville, Bethesda, Laurel, College Park, Bowie, NW Washington. Randallstown, Baltimore's Inner Harbor.

Since I got my phone June 4th I have had 4G in Loudoun County (Northern VA) about 30mins outside of DC (next to Dulles Airport).

I am now getting 4G in some parts of McLean, Tysons Corner and Arlington. Haven't seen amazing speeds yet (around 2000kbps compared to a max of 1500kbps or so that I've managed to get under 3G).
Did they turn something on though? I previously wasn't able to get 4G at all in some of these areas.

I was able to connect to 4G in Greenbelt (close to the Sprint store) but it was spotty. Also was connected driving on University Blvd by Langley Park. Noticed 4G coverage in Bethesda as well, but couldn't connect or stay connected long enough to actually use it.

I just got my first 4G signal in Falls Church, in my back yard no less. Signal quality: poor, several 404s on sites that should have been there, but no time for extensive testing right now.

I also get 3 bars in Severn area, Hanover\odenton 1-2 bars

I'm in LoCo too (about 15 minutes from Dulles) and have no 4G coverage

congrats to u guys when u get 4G! let me know how it is!

Got full signal in arlington.

3 bar @ gaithersburg. 3.5mb/s down and 1mb/s up.

No 4G in North Bethesda, no 4G downtown, no 4G in Metro.

4G in South Bay

I live in Campbell and been getting at least 1 bar of 4G consistently. Not a good signal but at least I'm getting something. Getting full 4G coverage in Cupertino and Santa Clara. My friend's a store manager at Sprint and told me they're launching 4G officially in October. Hope this is a good news for some of you. Thought I should share.

There's no way they're launching in San Francisco by next month. There's no signal anywhere even for testing. Maybe the san jose market will launch next month but san francisco will definitely take a while to launch.
Because, I'm pretty sure, all 4G launches are preceded by at least some sort of test signals... Which we have nothing in SF.

Sorry to hear that man. Hopefully they will. It would be silly for Sprint if they don't launch it in frisco considering the huge market.

Yeah, I work a lot in Palo Alto, and the whole downtown has the Clear Innovation network live, and there is some decent speeds. The other day while going on 101 South near Capitol Expwy exit in San Jose, I got over 7mbps in my car, while driving. That was epic.

wow that's awesome! i live a mile away from that area, i'm going to have to test it out. where i work near 101 and lawrence i can get 3.8-4.5 depending on if i have 1 or 2 bars.

I have managed to get 8Mbps in downtown San Jose. Covers the area past the Pavillion and up to the airport. Downtown has the best speeds though.

Just last weekend i got ~9Mbps near Walmart, Mountain View. Haven't got any 4G signal in palo alto area.

i'm probably being too optimistic, but i hope there's a signal inside the arena! sharks season coming up soon, so i'll be in there before long.

4g in cleveland ever?

Ive had the evo since the day it came out and since been waiting to get a 4g signal, does anyone have an update on how there pursuing this........

yes, cleveland, columbus and cinci are all in the works. no official schedule yet - NYC, LA and SF are the big openings that are being focused on.

thanks man they need to hurry this up

4G is live in North Olmsted. Strongest signal is in the area of the mall.

There's a sensorly map viewer app that will show you where people are seeing 4G. It's actually in a pretty large area around Cleveland already.

Can confirm I get 4g from cleveland to westlake going 90 west!!!! Averaging 8 to 10 down. Getting it at the office in westlake as well At the Atrium getting very good building penetration
