When I went to the sprint store to get a replacement for my phone, they told me that 4G is coming to my area (jersey shore) in late December/early January. When I went with my friend when he got his epic (i'm broke as my imac and my upgrade isn't till april) they told him the same thing. So.. What area are you from and when will 4G come there (or do you already have 4G there)?
Atlanta GA. 4g already available here

Well, maybe we will get it soon. I know I saw a story somewhere that Indy was getting 4g.
4g kills your battery like no other.
You guys are lucky.. I am in south dakota and I highly doubt we will ever get 4G. I can't even order a 4g phone without lying about where i live and then having someone else ship it back to me.

My city already has 4G. Oddly enough my city was one of the first few markets to get it. I don't know why, or how they decided here but I'm not complaining. I live in Yakima, Washington btw.

Same thing here. Central PA. Got it back in May.
Central Nebraska... no 4g for me for a loooooooooong time, since I still don't have native 3g yet... doesn't bug me much, since I'm usually near WiFi anyways... but still...

As of 5PM EST Sprint is having service issues and appears to be most areas (per conversation with tier 2 tech support).
UPDATE
00:13 EST- Full service should be restored by 03:00 EST.
Service is back up in more areas but still expect intermittent issues. Can personally verify Chicagoland is working.
Thank you so much for letting us know. I'm visiting some family in the Poconos in Pennsylvania and wasn't sure what was going on. I was getting paranoid that something was wrong. At least internet is still up.
Thanks!! Saved me a call to tech support.

I try not to bother customer service reps when things like this happen. Customer service reps all ways catch the worst of it when ever there's an issue and I really do feel sorry for them as a whole.
All good here in Knoxville Tennessee..... just tried a phone call and 3g working fast
Well I just chatted with a sprint rep about when 4G is coming to Detroit. Whether this rep is reliable or not, I'm not sure, but I am trying to find out anything I can. So here is what she told me:
Agent (Daisy D.): "I have checked and found that now 4 G is not available at Detroit but it will be available very soon."
Me: "do you know how soon"
Me: "like by the end of 2010?"
Agent (Daisy D.): "The confirmation like this is not available with us but whenever it will launched it will be notified on the sprint website. So please refer our website for latest updates."
Agent (Daisy D.): "I hope you understand this."
Me: "when you say it will be available very soon how do you know that if it doesn't tell you when it will be launched"
Agent (Daisy D.): "The launch date is not yet confirmed but the work is on progress so it will be launch very soon."
So whether we all should believe this or not, i dont know but I sure hope she is telling me the truth. I am getting very antsy and want some 4G. I am tempted to drive out to Grand Rapids one day just use 4G on my evo.
I have heard that we should have 4G by the end of December.
That would be a great christmas present now wouldn't it?
It would be nice, but I really don't know how much I'd use it. Considering 3g speeds aren't that bad around here, WiFi is everywhere, and 4G is a battery hog. I am anxious to try it out though.

you are 100% correct. its already been stated LA is getting it December 1st and the bay area mid december. other then that nothing has been annouced. if detroit was going to be official by end of year it more then likely wouldve been annouced with those.
The probably just started working on rolling out 4G in detroit so I'm guessing February or March of 2011 for us in detroit
Okay, that is a standard marketing speech to make you happy. Do the coverage map.. it says the same thing. Anytime they don't offer service they say it will be available soon. Until you get a actual release date don't get your hopes up.
Alright just chatted with another sprint rep and he informed me that the last rep I spoke to misstated her comment. By it being in progress, he said she meant that as a nationwide rollout, not just for detroit. Not surprised though so it isn't a let down for me

I was thinking the same thing. I'm pretty surprised at how well 3g works in this area and in fact continue to use it even when a wifi AP is "available". ( ::coughBordersBookscough:: )
Unless 4g is really sooo much better, I'm really not chomping at the bit for it to get here.

All you people who keep saying its not that important are trippin. Its like being on wifi all the time, and wifi is definitely better then 3g. When you watch YouTube it doesn't start high quality and instantly on 3g but it does on 4g. They are not to be compared and many people are making that comparison in this thread
Sent from my Evo using Tapatalk
There is one tiny little area in chesterfield that you can grab 4g at times. Ive talked with one sprint rep and have been "unofficially" told there are a couple test areas up but they are hit and miss whether you will connect to them on a continuous basis. From what Ive heard from multiple reps, Verizon will have it here in Detroit before Sprint and we may very well not get it before next summer. Someone needs to figure out how to tap into MetroPCS' 4G towers.
As for the Lions playoffs vs 4G Detroit....My monies on the Apocalypse happening before either of those 2

I totally agree! If it wasn't for the Evo, Evo Shift and the Epic...Sprint would be nothing. The Evo is a beast and that's the only reason I'm still with Sprint. However, if they don't release and/or announce a Evo 2, I might just sell my Evo, Evo Shift, my wife's phone and my daughter's phone and go to another carrier.
All this hype for a mediocre phone. This thing doesn't even compare to the Evo at all. This was a disastrous FAIL on Sprint's part!

Verizon comes out with the Thunderbolt, so that is an option for me. As well as the Motorola Atrix. But the only thing about those Motorola phones is that they're hard to root.

not where I am either, but I'm sayin' for the rest of the folks that aren't so lucky.
Clearwire is in trouble. They were considering skipping their debt payment this month, which can't mean anything good. They had a $237M debt (actually just an interest) payment due, and sprint gave them $1.6B. That's less than 7 months of interest payments, assuming the payment is a constant $237M each month, and not counting costs of running the company day to day. I have a feeling Sprint just set fire to $1.6B. I guess it's better than having the 4G service just shut off, before Sprint has a chance to get off the ground with their LTE network.
Sprint should have just built their own network, instead of partnering with companies that are damaged goods.
Edit: Most of the first paragraph was originally based on the payment being for both principal and interest. Since it's only for interest....clearwire is screwed. Say goodbye to wimax in a few months. I give it until April, and then clear files for bankruptcy, and their assets are sold off shortly thereafter.

Wow.. it's actually true.. I am going to get sad..
Unlike a forum for a certain car, like My old Mustang or M3, I know this will be a forever goodbye as I will never get another EVO..
I'm leaving..
After enough BS with Sprint, the promises of 4G, I'm done..
T-mobile, which is lightning fast for my area (down load speeds of 9-12 are not un common)
is having a sale this weekend.. Free phones.. any of them..
i'm getting the GSII
and pretty excited.
But I realized.. For over a year I've been modding and theming, roming, kerneling and radioing with you guys..
Now, its over..
It sucks because there is almost no development for the GSII on T-mobile..
I was gonna wait for the Nexus that Sprint said was going to come this month, now they say mid 2012..
Plus, ZERO LTE.. I don't trust them..
Either way.. I'm out..
thanks for all the help and to dev's you guys are awesome..
P.S. selling my EVO for 50 bucks..
Good luck and totally understand why you're doing this. What I find truly sad is that an awesome phone like the Evo sells for $50, yet an outdated POS like iPhone 3G still sells for $200+ on craigslist.

I've been with sprint for 12 years...and i'm considering moving to another carrier. I feel like gsm will be my next step. i'm so pissed that they're running this company into the ground. wimax was such a bad idea.. i'm just gonna smoke a bowl and try to forget that it takes 10 minutes for my phone to download a facebook update, and google music barely ever streams properly.. yo at least the call quality is still superb though.
Not ALL the TMobile phones are free. The G SII is 229.00, according to their website
Totally understand the need for speed. Here in eastern NC, we're never gonna get 4G of any kind, so I'll stick with Sprint, as their service in this area is second to none and their prices are outstanding.
Gikd luck with the move. If you still feel the need I'm willing to take that evo off your hands. I can help you out with that. Let me know so sorryy to see you go. pm me.

Me too.. was with Sprint for 11 years..
I was suckered into the EVO.. Promised (by not only the sales guy but customer service too) that 4G would be in my area within month..
I was asked to pay 10 bucks more a month.... Call it what you want, it was for the 4G!!!
I was going to wait and get the Nexus as I was told its coming this month, I was even told LTE is going to be spread like a wild fire and by the end of 2012 it will be all over the united states..
Then go look at their site, they show a video of where LTE will be installed.. not even in my state..
I got this phone today.. Its sexy as hell.. My download speeds which I've done about 30 now, lol, vary from 22 down 5 up to the lowest of , 6 down 1.5 up..
It's unreal!!
Netflix,Slingplayer,HBO GO, everything is un real fast...

It's free today only.. Any phone in their store..
2 year contract, you do have to pay for it upfront, (figured that) and rebate it back..
Just like the damn EVO..
Either way.. this phone is sick!
Good luck with the switch, in your galaxy, far, far away.
pics of said evo's condition...please and thank you!
NetworkVision is going to make some huge improvements in 99% of places guys. Leaving sprint now is like leaving at the absolute worst of times and you'll miss out on the great times in the near future.
LTE will spread like wild fire and be complete by next years end.
Now if you have no problem going and paying more elsewhere and having data caps/throttling then more power to ya.
A site for some very solid sprint network info that I've run across is "s4grub.com" as there is a wealth of detailed information there, most of which you couldn't even get from sprint themselves.

Wow, I have 5 lines with Sprint and was looking to change over. Just will cost me a few hundred to get out of 3 of the lines. Good luck!!

Been hearing the same **** about "plain old" 4G for the last 3 years. Now miraculously Sprint is going to be "complete" with ANYTHING?
I won't hold my breath.
Or maybe I will at least until May when my Sprint contract is up....

Go to the site I linked and read up this is completely different than Wimax by far.
