Near Orlando and I just got 4kbps down, 60kbps up and a ping of 791ms with speedtest's Tampa server. I've also been messing around with my phone trying to get my PRI updated all day so it could be caused by that.
Just a few minutes ago I had to restore a nandroid because I was getting the error 67 / invalid login messages.
Edit: Just tried again and the speedtest app said my download speed was -0kbps, somehow I doubt that is accurate
Sounds like you are having some of the same problems I'm seeing in AZ. Sprint seems to be having issues.
Have had trouble with my 3G for about ten days now. Sarasota/Bradenton area. Sometimes it functions normally, sometimes I can't get a bare bones map from Google to download. I'm on Sprint's network and I suspect the slow 3G speeds may have to do with 4G testing going on around the state. I know Tampa just went hot and the 3G speeds up there were horrendous for about 2 weeks prior to the roll-out. Whatever problems they were having seem to have been sorted out. I was driving in Tampa on Monday with no trouble on 3G.
I spoke with a Sprint rep today who indicated 4G should be live in this area by the end of next week.(Hope, hope.)
Nope, mine is running good today. Last night I went back to stock group deodexed whatever the update letter was. It's running good. Eating battery a bit more than cyanogen rc1, but I got tired of poor reception so I'm trying something different.
I'm over in Melbourne and it has been terrible all day. I'm glad it isn't just me.
Tampa here. Its been hit and miss. When 4G first hit, I could pull 5-6Mbps on 4g and 1Mbps on 3G. Now I can't even pick up 4G where I used to at work, 4G at Busch Gardens is about 2Mbps and 3G is running around 500kbps.
Definitely something screw the last 4 or 5 days.

Seems like its been slow here all week. Its not as bad as it was earlier but around eau gallie and hwy 1 it's still running at a third the speed it was before.

I'm usually home using wifi near US1 and babcock but I was up in Viera tonight and got better speeds while roaming 2g on verizon than 3g on sprint. I'm glad cyanogenmod has the "affiliated networks" option.
I live around the Tampa area but have traveled to north Florida for the weekend and the trip this afternoon was horrible for data. No data coverage from Tampa to ocala at all on I75 using my evo or the data card so I know its not a phone problem. It's the network.

I am near Orlando and it has been ****ty 3g. I thought it was my rom. I called sprint and told them i couldn't connect over 3g so they gave me my MSL number and did a restore. Now i have an updated PRI and am getting about a 1meg down. This is double compared to what i was getting before considering where i live.
Yeah, there were times yesterday I couldn't even connect. It was making my Word Feud playing and Pandora listening extremely unenjoyable.
I'm in Miami. Near the airport. About a week ago I was riding to work and when I got to work I saw that it had picked up a 4g connection somewhere along the way. Haven't been able to find it again though

4g seemd to be working ok yesterday in tampa, just the 3g was crap.....Today is a brand new day, hopefully the system has repaired itself...Lets see....

How did you update your PRI?
I don't know if he was referring to the thread about connecting you a different tower regardless of the towers provider..... But if you look around its in the site somewhere...

My cellphone's internet stopped working. I had the 4G status icon and 4 great bars, but the browser, twitter, market, still would not work. After pulling out the battery several times, playing with the settings, etc. I turned 4G off and then all of a sudden the cell worked on 3G.
I showed up at the Sprint store and they told me "....hmmm, you know, the satellites,... you know.... are not working...... mine doesn't work neither...." (sic) It was true. The salesperson's EVO wasn't working either.
OK. they showed me a terminal screen stating that 4G was not working as expected, they were preforming tests.
The problem is that for about an hour I thought my phone had gone bad, until it occurred to me that I should turn 4G off. Then it worked, slow, but it worked. (to tell you the truth, I even went back to factory settings).
I told them that out of courtesy, they should send affected costumers a SMS or email advising about the 4G outage.
I noticed the same thing. Didn't realize it was because of an outage though. What's weird is that 4g service worked great via the hotspot. Just not on the handset. Weird, right?
I don't know what you are talking about....I'm in NYC and 4g is working fine for me ....I am using it right now.
I am on cm7 but that shouldn't make a difference.

yes, that's what I mean. You get the 4G icon and you think everything is fine. But it works only partially, so it's hard to realize that you need to disable 4G in order to get the internet working...

It worked for me again for 30 minutes then the internet (browser) wouldn't work again, so I disabled 4G again. It wasn't working for any of the guys at the Sprint store. So it must be on and off. I also asked them when was this outage going away, they couldn't answer. they just told me if I go to another tower (area) it might work.
It wouldn't turn on for me today around 4. I needed it to refresh my twitter faster so I can get free UFC tix from Dana lol but I didn't get crap

Same here- I work in midtown (east 50s); for the past couple of days, 4G has been intermittent at best (for me, whether on the handset, via wireless tether or via easytether)- but today, it just went out altogether. shows as connected and getting 2 or even 3 bars, but it won't connect to email, browser etc. when using the speednet app, I usually get time outs (999ms ping), but occasionally will go thru and get about 2 down/1 up (vs 5-7 down when working).
I guess I'd be a lot more pissed off about it if I hadn't picked up a Thunderbolt this morning... as much as I like Sprint and my Evo, that damn LTE has got some serious speed to it.

noticing the same issues in Chicago. Have been intermittent the past two days, and I can't even connect to 4G today.
4G is currently working in Inwood (Manhattan) but it wasn't this morning. ....
Rhis morning I had the 4G icon with 4 bars, but the internet would not work.

I was having the same issue in Chicago this morning. Seems to be working as of about 15 mins ago though.
I've been having problems in downtown Columbus, OH for about 12 hours now. Couldn't connect to it last night to update my Facebook (I was at a hockey game). My GPS still worked though, as I'm an avid Foursquare user.
Hope Sprint gets this fixed soon, if I wanted only 3g I'd have stuck with one of the Desire Z roms
Ok now I'm getting the 4g issues. I'm in S.I. and my 4g works but speeds have dropped from close to 1mbps to 200-300kbps....
Did anyone's 4g get fixed in NYC? ....mine is still really slow...its actually just as fast as my horrible 3g speeds
Still having horrible 4g in NYC ...I did a chat support with Sprint ....they told me to do a profile update ....which did not help....then the Rep said they sent some provisioning over the air to my phone which did not help either.....is anyone else still having slow 4g in NYC or is it just me???
NYC reception in general
So all this talk about a AT&T taking over of Tmobile has brought me to Sprint as my new carrier. Ill be picking up the EVO 4G. Can anyone tell me how there reception is in and around the city "NYC/Queens"? In general is there good 4G reception.
Thanks.
I've never had good 4g here in Canarsie, Brooklyn.
Ok finally sprint fixed something......my 4g speed are back I'm getting 1000+kBps
Anyone recently have any issues in NYC with their evos on 4G? I haven't been able to connect for almost a week. I called Sprint yesterday and they said they are having 4G issues. They gave me a $25 credit for my inconvinience. Hell all I want is my coverage back on.
Anybody with signal problem in the FL PGA area? Don't know if it's just me but it has been horrible... barely any 3g plus drop calls
I'm in NY, bklyn and my signal been horrible as of lately....idk whats up, and I can't update my PRL....

My phone has been awful in Ohio the last few days. I don't know if it has anything to do with the holiday weekend or what, but I have had virtually no 3g, and my phone has been roaming in places I normally have full bars and 4g coverage.
it was driving me nuts for the last couple of days... today seems a bit better now in the afternoon... but i also did a lot of stuff to it...switch from to miui, change to amon ra, prl,radios you name it lol. Now im trying to get used to Miui
same here in NW Indiana. usually have 1meg down in my house over 3g. now can't hardly ever get 3g since Friday. speed test when i did get 3g said I was getting 4k down. and I am roaming half the time when I usually never roam in my house
Its really started to piss me off. I've changed to a Verizon prl for the time being so i can use my phone. I might use this as am excuse to have them switch out my phone.
im in deltona fl and im only getting 200 kbp its slow not even worth using internet on the phone i dont know what i pay for
Nw indiana here too im getting 220k 30 miles from chicago a 4G hotspot wtf is going on? Im usually pushing 1.9mbs-2.5mbs hmm it must be a conspiracy it actually started to happen when that damn GB came out damn you GINGERBREAD!!! lol

Seems to be a Network problem. I'm in NJ and had same problem yesterday. Today all seems to be back on par.
Several weeks of bad reception in western Philadelphia suburbs. Especially in the 422 corridor (Pottstown to King of Prussia).
It's getting to the point where I am almost roaming all day (without data). Yet, according to Sprint's map, I should have good 3G and 4G service (even indoors). What a crock!
Central nj too. I have two evos and both have horrible service. But my other sprint phones don't have a problem. One evo is rooted and the other isn't.

i have had slow internet for 6 months now with my evo and evo 3d i go to other areas its good but im also in the middle of no where where no one lives
Mine has been dropping from 3G to 1X all day, then it goes back to 3G for a few minutes...their network is just completely OVER CAPACITY...and they're not fixing the tower by my house until SEPTEMBER... supposedly!
I have been unable to connect using 4G. 3G works very slowly. I can click the 4G widget to establish a connection, I get a 4G icon at the top with full signal bars. But unable to connect to any web sites or even the android market.
This seems to be happening in a lot of places. NYC is trash right now.
Mine has been quite goofy lately. It will connect with bars but like you said, then nothing will connect. I noticed it the last week trying to run a speed test to show a friend. It couldn't connect to a server, so that demo went REALLY well.
EDIT: Popped your Cherry
4g philly has been horrid all day until like 10pm...... try connecting to 3g by the art museum? impossible
YES in philly my 4g just dosnt work... Neither does my fiances on her evo... I got full bars but can't use it.... Glad I'm not the only one.. Means it'll be fixed soon
Edit: the independance day show was great

I'm not in Philly but maybe 1hr northwest in Reading and that happened to me yesterday. 4G on and couldn't connect to the net or market and even tried a little speed test and nothing. I did noticed it back around 9 or 10 in the night, so maybe it will be a half a day for you guys.
I'm currently about 5min outside Philly but I hit a tower in the city for 4G. I'm able to access sites but randomly pages will fail but if I reload they will end up loading the second time. I've heard issues in other cities so maybe it's a Sprint problem.
Update for 4G
3996 kbps down
1369 kbps up
In north Philly today
Problems again... Anyone else?

Yep, they started all over. No connection to 4g
I had the same problem in Moorestown, NJ this afternoon. Near Philly. 3G and 4G both dropped out for a while. Better for the past 30 minutes or so...

yeah i was at the moorestown mall around 1 and connected with full bars but no go on the internet... went down to cherry hill mall and bam 10mb down, 1.8mb up... 3g has been better too, 1.3mb down and 700k up
On the main floor of this house I can normally achieve full HSPA+ service. Today I can only get 1-2 bars on my Nexus 4. In the basement (where I usually am) I'm normally able to get 2-3 bars of HSPA+ service. Today I'm getting absolutely NO service at all down here. My whole family (whom also has T-Mobile) across a variety of phones are experiencing the same issues. I even flashed a new radio and that didn't help either which means it's probably a T-Mobile issue today. Anyone else experiencing this in the NY metropolitan area? (I'm on Long Island currently)

I know right.. Seems to be getting better by trying different kernel and radio combinations. Also resetting APN and such.
