I completely agree. Huge issue with the phone.
Wow, that's not good. I wonder how long Sprint will let that happen...I mean even AT&T throws minutes around in their commercials, maybe Sprint can throw some in the bag

I can confirm this issue. I've had the phone for four hours now and time just goes by. It's really quite frustrating. Sprint better get on this immediately.
I notice the uploads are no where near EVDO RevA. I'm getting about 130 or so now up and on my Hero I got in the 600 range.

I've noticed terrible speeds on speedtest apps, yet everything loads so much faster than the hero because of the processor. Don't even notice the crappy signal as its irrelevant. Wish I could test 4G... maybe next week.

Damn! My boss is going to be really upset with me over this issue. Seems I will be spending lots of time trying to find a fix for it

I'm posting this here because I currently have an HTC Hero. I'm on the way back from Maui and sitting at the airport with a 4 hour layover when I find:

What happened to your call and end keys?
He didnt want his phone to be recognized so he blurred them out, lol.
His call and end buttons look like mine. The paint was probably comming off the buttons so he probably scraped it the rest of the way off.

This. Some of the early Hero's seem to have a problem with the phone keys. Mine and my brothers paint came off (day 1 Hero users) and my wife's (few months down the line) appears to be fine. A few other people I know that bought them a few month's later haven't had any issues either.

I got my Hero a few months down the line and the paint came off. I went to Sprint and had them replaced and they replaced my track ball.

You could say that it's suzuki turbo hayabusa fast.
Fastest I've gotten was around 12 so I'd say just wow.
22 Mb/s INSIDE your house is insane, congrats for being in the sickest 4G hot spot
Dang in south florida the fastest I go was 3.5 4g got here like a month ago so maby they are still doing updates t the network
What are you using to tether??
I wasn't using teather I used the speed test app
Thanks all. I'm usung the sprint mobile ap. 30$ month
I have sustained over a true MB transfer speed of 1300KBps
I couldn't take a screen shot because of what I was downloading hehe
I will get a video made up soon to show it in action

What firewall application are you using on your pc. Its not kaspersky by any chance is it? Some firewall apps scan and cache your internet data thus messing with speedtests.
Why pay 30 when u could root and use wifi teather. Is I faster that way?
My daughters have this phone and they recv'd the OTA yesterday
Wrong forum all together.... this is the epic forums
Yay?

My buddy got it OTA last week actually.
Perhaps he is implying that this means the epic will get it soon.

Actually, this may very well be relevant. Perhaps it's a sign that they are readying the release. Who knows for sure.... It updates us on the status of the overall roll out. Whether or not it applies to Samsung as they seem to march to the beat of a different, unknown drummer is another story.
Thanks for the update.

LOL, yes just a generalized update concerning GB as an OTA from Sprint.
I am sure given my signature and number of posts; that you'd unserdtand I know where I am posting
Thank you for not disappointing me; I knew for sure I'd catch a flame or two... hehehe
Thank you Rob for coming to my defense
Maybe now that both of Sprint's favorite sons, the EVO brothers, got the GB update they can finally release it to the red headed stepchild.

Don't feel bad. Mine isn't always much better. I am normally on wifi when I need to do web surfing or anything major. I see you are in Dallas which I guess I could understand the speeds because of major usage. I live in a small city and still get somewhat pathetic times, usually just a little bit faster than dialup.

Ouch. I have WiFi too, but it's also an unreliable POS because it drops out every ten minutes. I'm thinking of switching, but the only other carrier that has a decent signal is Verizon, but 5GBs of data is a killer. I often pass 6GBs on my EVO.

Is the wifi a hotspot problem or a phone problem? If it is a hotspot problem then I would flash an updated firmware for it. I had a linksys with that problem and the firmware fixed it. You could also try changing the wireless channel in the routers configuration.
It's a Sprint problem.

I glanced over at the sprint forum and folks are enraged that the Oct 25th release is actually just online & telephone order, and the device wont ship for about 4-10 days. I want the device but not that bad to throw a childish tantrum like a 6yo.
Yeah its a cool phone but it wont change my life it wont give me a raise and it's more important things to concern your self that unboxing on the 25th. Are women gonna give me a cell number and say call me I like your phone.. NO...that's what the Yamaha r1 and Mercedes is for..lmao.
3 additional phones will be dropping in the first quarter so I can still wait. Some of you are in need of a new phone since that evo might be on its last leg. My evo works fine and thanks for development of cool roms to keep me busy.
So for me its still no rush, cause the evo works , I rather wait for the kinks to get ironed out.. and I want gameloft MC4 working out the gate.. none of that device is not compatible crap....
Ummm what are you talking about? What evo 4g is shipping out the 25th??
