same except in my house
route 7 runs past my street
on my street i dont have any but on route 7 i have signal its weird
In Clarendon and Courthouse neighborhoods of Arlington I get about 2mbps...
Not particularly spectacular, but the high speeds and faster phone makes it way faster than my iPhone 3G.
Virginia has 4G before Colorado? What is wrong with this picture.............
I live in herndon and I get 1 to2 bars averaging 2+ mbps not spectacular but faster then ATT.

The signal strength is really just your strength to the tower, not your connection to the internet, just FYI I have had higher speeds with 1-2 bars than with a full signal. Anyway there are some spots in Houston, TX near where I work that I can get ~8-10Mbps down on, but I usually average about half that. Here are some pics, also btw a download test is a bit more accurate than those "speed tests" they can lie to you sometimes.

Yup. Northern VA, Richmond, Hampton Roads >>>> Colorado . We don't have any 4G here in Hampton Roads that I know of yet (no Evo til Monday), but there is a new Clearwire antenna/tower near my girlfriends house. I hope there are many more of those to come and soon.
I want them to put one in in Springfield. That's where my office is and 4G would be awesome!

There's definitely 4G at Franconia Springfield Metro Station in Virginia...and at the Telegraph Road Gate to Fort Belvoir...

Apparently there are two antennas live in downtown Denver and others aren't live but have been spotted (including on the Sprint call center in the tech center) so its coming here too very shortly.

That's good to hear. I wish Sprint would give us a real roadmap of their 4G rollout. There's no point in hiding it when people know the towers are there and are getting 4G signals.

I have been able to get WiMAX in Manassas on 234 near the Barnes and Noble. Also, just up the road in Centreville at 66 & 28. Good thing too because in both or those areas the 3G service is terrible. This is one main reason holding me back from upgrading to the Evo LTE or the Galaxy SIII since I will no longer have 4G.
Clearwire announced on Thursday that it has begun rolling out its 4G WiMAX service to seven new cities in four states. The lucky seven include Eugene, OR., Merced, CA., Visalia, CA., Yakima, WA., Tri-Cities, WA., Rochester, NY., and Syracuse, NY. Folks in these locales who are already rocking an HTC EVO 4G or an Overdrive 3G/4G mobile hotspot can sit back and enjoy their newly acquired 4G speeds. Those of you still sporting last year’s 3G technology now have a reason to jump on board the WiMAX bandwagon.

Oklahoma City please.
Just got it here in Richmond Va., unfortunately I just live 20 mins. south of Richmond in Chester . I do get 4g at work however
Springfield Ohio please .......................... FAT F**KING CHANCE LOL
I've always had it in Philly. Honestly I would of not bought this phone if I didn't have 4g coverage. I'd feel pretty stupid paying $10 extra for nothing then
Congrats to all y'all that just got it. We've had it here in St. Louis since the Evo launch, but it just went official about a week or two ago. Gotta say, it's nice!
it's been showing up in my town lately.. near garfield, nj. it's a weak signal though.
Rochester,NY
woo hoo, now i got to get me an evo. my sister has been getting 4g on and off for the past few weeks
Not official in Salt Lake City but it has been up in beta for a few weeks now. I am only seeing 2-3Mbps. Hope it gets faster when it is official.
What speeds are you seeing?

They released in in Yakima and Tri-cities before Spokane....
I shake my tiny fist at you, Clearwire! It pains me to see people with ATT in my building getting 2.1mbps when I'm getting ~500kbps.
Get it out here in the suburbs of Chicago. Haven't had a chance to take it downtown yet, will try it when we hit Burnham Harbor this weekend. Will be honest, didn't look at the 4G coverage map before buying the phone ... wasn't really sure if it would bleed out here.

I'm kinda shocked at that too. I'm in Walla Walla and tried to get them to waive the fee since 4g isn't avail and probably wont be for a long time, they said within the next month or 2, we should have 4G here. Still, no love for Spokane?
Awesome, 5th largest city in the US (Phoenix) and we're not one of the first 47 cities to get 4G. Bravo.

In Philly after the newest update I am hitting over 8 mb/s easily. Before the update I was getting 4.5 mb/s. On one bar of service in a bad area I usually get 5-6 mb/s.

T-Mobile announced more cities now with HSPA+ during the myTouch release. Here's the list of cities:
With its latest expansion, T-Mobile’s HSPA+ footprint now includes Biloxi and Gulfport, Miss.; Denver, Colo.; Huntsville, Ala.; Knoxville, Tenn.; Myrtle Beach, S.C.; Norfolk, Va.; Omaha, Neb.; Phoenix and Tucson, Ariz.; Salt Lake City, Utah; San Francisco, San Jose, Oakland and Sacramento, Calif.; and West Palm Beach, Fla. T-Mobile expects to reach 100 major metropolitan areas and 200 million people in 2010.
Source: Tmonews.
Personally, the fact that San Jose is getting is best news ever as I get my phone tomorrow. Hopefully T-Mo expands more, bringing the love to more people around this part of town. Chicago gets all the love all the time!
Nice!
I was told by a rep that it wasn't comin in my area till November but this is really good news.
Thanks for the post...

no where on tmonews does it say these things maybe I looked it over can you provide a link?
SO these cities mentioned are HSPA+ live right now ?
Huntsville, AL \o/
We deserve it more than any other city in the state
Yes, Huntsville is the place to be in AL.
Too bad I live just outside of Huntsville where I only get edge. I look forward to having faster podcast downloads on the way to work though, once we get HSPA+.

Definitely. Awesome city although I was admittedly hesitant to move to the hick-state initially. Great place to be in the tech business. Hopefully Google brings that lovely fiber here...
I actually am in Hazel Green so only get edge and 3G in certain parts, but most of my phone-using day is in Huntsville area. 3G leaked from Huntsville out to Hazel Green rather quickly and I hope it does the same with HSPA+... Actually, the first day I saw 3G symbol ever was within Hazel Green limits on my way to work with my new G1 one day...

It was the same post as their myTouch HD launch. TMo announced it, see if you can confirm it by reading a press release perhaps.
It's not updated at TMo's official website, but it should be here pretty soon.

Couldnt agree more with the fiber comment, this town(Huntsville) could definitely use it, especially considering the massive growth its experiencing right now.
Ive noticed the HSPA+ for about a week now, I used to get intermittant HSPA connections on my myTouch slide a few weeks back, but nothing solid, however in the last week I had nothing but HSPA connection no matter where I was at, including the freakin psuedo-bunker I work in, which I had problems even getting Edge in before.

Wow, a lot of people here from the area.
Could definitely use the fiber boost. It's an extremely tech/research-oriented city. I understand the places where the work is being done already have commercial connections, but... just give me the fiber!
If you don't already know, we have the same icon for 3G/HSPA/HSPA+ (the 'H') so it will be hard to tell what network you're really on.
about damn time they do Phoenix and Tucson at the same time!!!!!!
Man, I cannot wait. Did a random speed test yesterday and got about 7.6Mbps down on 3G.
Yes! Finally San Jose and San Fransisco

Phoenix area has been announced for some time now actually. They have been setting up HSPA+ speeds around my are for the last month now. My N1 has been basicly maxed out at 5-7mbps around my area ^_^

Spoke too soon. Still stuck on HSDPA here in Salt Lake City. Guess I still have to wait till November...

Anyone Else from South FL Here?
Anyone else from South FL (Tri-County Area (Palm beach.Broward/Miami Dade))?
If Miami, Ft lauderdale and West Palm are getting HSPA+, does that mean the less-major cities between them are as well?
Like Deerfield, Boca, Delray, Pompano, etc since they are between these three cities

Trust me, you want the G2. The MyTouch is not only ugly, but it has a stupid name. ;-)

I went to the Tmobile store in fort union to play with the G2. The phone had some settings messed up so I couldn't access all the internet, but i could open google's home page and do a basic search. It was MUCH fast than my N1.
Norfolk in the house! I went to the Tmobile store on the 30th, when I received my phone, and the reps were surprised at two things:
I had the phone before them and the fact that the H was showing up in my device.
They concluded that the towers were upgraded, but they were just waiting to "flip the switch".

its still a crapshoot in northern KY, closer to the river or airport the better it seems, no signal at my house in independence, but I got a poor to weak signal at the Target in florence last night at work., but at least I know it works on my phone.
Keep in mind for the Cleveland network, we will be continually adding towers through April 2011. The coverage map on sprint.com will be updated every 15 days to reflect the changes
Still no love for detroit? Get it together sprint!

Weird. I was in DC end of Sept through mid October and 4g was up and running fine.
Dam I'm only 1 mile from a freakin spot of 4G that's in the wilderness park in south OC. Otherwise I would have to commute 10 miles to get more stable 4G, O well hope they build more towers soon for the rest of Orange county.

Is it just me or I could care less. 4G is unusable IMHO. The battery drain isn't worth the extra bandwidth. T-Mo's HSDPA is the direction every wireless carrier should be looking at.
still no memphis.
wtf
Maybe Omaha?
For about the last week or two service has been almost nonexistent when I use the phone at my house and it was because Sprint said they were updating their towers. I have lived in the same place for 6 years and have never had an issue like this. Has anyone in a 4G city noticed this happening shortly before it gets launched or am I just reading too much into it unfortunately?
We just got 3g 1/27/11 and wondering if sprint upgraded from 2g to 4g? I don't have an evo to check, its not listed on Sprint's 4g cities
It would be a shocker to wait this long for 3g and find we got 4g
My guess is we would have to wait on Clearwire to get 4g not Sprint?
Not that this means anything but .. 4G sprung up at I10 and College St in Beaumont, TX, just to your West, a few weeks ago. It seems to be 1 - 3 towers worth of coverage around that address.
Unfortunately coverage does not seem to be expanding yet.
Check out Lake Charles, LA on this map: clear.com/coverage. It looks like there is a 4G tower online, but it's just like Beaumont .. very weak coverage so far.
(Sorry can't post links yet)
nope
Don't see Louisiana listed?

In lake charles works great inside mall and around Ryan & prien lake rd farther out you have to be by a window or outside. Speed max is 5 mbps down 1 up
yes
T-Mobile is going to be the first to officially have 4G in Lake Charles
i recently found out it is available now (i blogged about it here)
but once the speeds can be considered true '4G' it will be the first in southwest Louisiana =]
I'm getting it in the Lake St/ Sale Rd area. It was one of the first things I checked when i got my EVO 3D. In fact, I'm on it now walking around my neighborhood.

I'm in south Lake Charles on my 3vo with no 4G and has not worked anywhere. It shows 4G antenna on but its still on 3G.
