no such thing as unlimited!!!! and you can also use an app 3g watchdog just start the app when you are starting a new months usage

There's no person watching over your data so there is no leniency. It's automated. You get 5GB on 4G/3G, after that you will receive an official text notifying you of your data overage and that your speeds will be reduced. You will then be reduced to Edge/GPRS speeds until the end of your billing cycle (unlimited). The rumors you heard about the separation of HSPA+ & HSPA is wrong. You can check your data using the T-Mobile My Account app. No need to log on to the website.
Data: 136.4819 / Unlimited Megabytes is mine currently so I'm assuming I divide that number by 1024 to get my measurement in GB correct? So in that case I've used less than 1

How do you do that? On my My Mobile app texts and minutes are listed, but there is no sign of the data use.
I wonder if it's because I'm contractless (Even More Plus)?

A co-worker just came back who just picked up a new Iphone 4S from AT&T. We both ran our speed tests at the same time and I was ranging from 100kbs to 300-400kbs and he was getting 1.5mbs to 3.5mbs on 3G.
This is just sad. The only good thing is, I try to stay on wireless when I can so I don't have to worry about network speeds. This is after seeing that Sprint network site that says there's like 23 3G speed improvements done here recently.
I'm in downtown KC. I kinda figured they'd make sure their corporate headquarters network speeds would be pretty good...
You need to compare his 3G to your 4G. He's probably really on AT&T's 3.5G (H+) which is comparable to Sprint's "4G".

Well if that's the case, then I was getting 5mbs on 4G. Too bad I can't leave that on, it'll drain my battery.

lol! What??? Why would you want slow speeds, but no cap? It'll take your entire billing cycle to hit the same "limit" that AT&T enforces.
It doesn't matter what speed your using as to when you'll hit your data cap before someone else or not. It matters how much you use your phone. I could use a 2G phone and hit a data cap in a day.

I have noticed a HUGE dropoff in connection speeds this month. I used to be able to pull close to 1000kbps during the day, but it has dropped to about 100-170kbps since earlier this month.
My friend said that there was a show on the radio that was talking about this issue Sprint and apparently Verizon customers have had. I live in southern california to be specific, if that changes anything.
I tried everything to improve my 3G like flashing radios/PRL/etc but to no avail.
When I speedtest late at night around 1am, it pulls upwards of 1000kbps with the same signal strength. Peak hours are obviously having a huge impact on the network... Maybe the recent iPhone influx? Not sure but my 3g has been crawling lately, really bugging me. I also don't have 4G in my area.
I walked into a Verizon store with a pal the other day, the Rezound pulled some rediculous numbers on 4G. Wish I had that...

A friend traded his EVO 4G for a Nexus S last month. He went from 100-300kbps as we are all used to on the EVO 4G to now getting up to 1500 kbps on 3G with the Nexus S.
I know my 3G speeds were much faster before a few updates ago. I now use 4G and WiFi when I can. It would just be nice if 3G speeds were reasonable.
I am also in the KC area.

that's pretty over the top. alot of isp's for cable/fiber/dsl have 250GB caps per month now. I hit about half that and i download a ton of HD movies and tv shows with att uverse.
how many roms are you downloading? there arent that many active evo roms nowadays compared to earlier in the year.
it sounds more like you're using torrents constantly and have your client open 24/7 to be hitting that high per month. which is a horrible thing to do on a mobile network.

I used right at 1.8gb in February. Some past months:
Oct 2011: 1.6gb
Nov 2011: 2.19gb
Dec 2011: 2.35gb
Jan 2012: 6.16gb
6.16gb - damn. I was over a gig roaming that month, and 3.46gb on 4G. No tethering. This is why unlimited data matters - I would have paid $40 or more on other carriers just for January!
not much sprint 3g(475MB) and 4g(200MB) sucks in my area so 90 % of time im on wifii
5 lines
19727433 kB 3g (18.841 GB)
13783812 kB 4g (13.145 GB)
that was feb4 to mar4.
not much, i'm on wifi most of the time.
From 25 Jan -25 Feb about 500 Mb 3g and 5.3 Gb on 4g
This is pretty average for me. I don't tether just use my phone a bit.
I've use anywhere from 500 to 2gb in a month norm. For a while I was using my 4G as my internet while I moved and didn't have home internet. Used 20 to 60GB of 4G for 3 months. Yes Torrents and such (private trackers), I still have my service and Sprint had no problem with it, I called them once a week to ask. Now my network is up. Wifi = low data for me.

divided over 5 lines, its really not that much. i use about 10 myself, the other 20 is divided up over my wife, her sis, and 2 kids.
we have hbo go and netflix. im sure thats where most of it goes. hd movies are a data killer.
we dont tether. i pay for 50 mbps internet at home, so no point in that.
as far as home use, i torrent my ass off. if timewarner started capping me, id be ****ed. my home internet use has to be 100 to 200 gb per month id say.
I usually average ~8-12GB/month. However, last month I hit just over 20GB. All over 3G.
It's from streaming from Google Music mostly.

2-3GB per month - most of which is on 3G with occasional 4G use. Probably a ton more when I'm connected to Wifi.
I use about 1gb a month. I don't use sprint, I have virgin mobile which is still unlimited (do throttle after 2.5gb) but still is nice to know that if I did go over I don't have overage fees.

Sounds just like my usage pattern, about 3.5GB on 3G and less than a gig on 4G. The reason why I hardly use 4G, even though most areas I'm in have 4G coverage is because I forget to turn it on. Most of my data usage is streaming YouTube videos.
So I find out today that I haven't really been using "america's fastest 4g network". Apparently my old Basic Android data plan or whatever it's called, doesn't give me full 4g speed. I've only been getting HALF of what I could be getting. This wouldn't bother me so much if I wasn't paying $30 bucks a month for this when the 2gb unlimited plan (I know, sounds funny, huh? 2gb UNLIMITED) is only $20. Even when I purchased my GS3, no one told me, "Hey, you know, you're not getting the full advantage of the speeds your phone is capable of." I guess they'd rather I spend the extra $10 a month and use less bandwidth at the same time. Why not, huh?
So my question is two-fold. First, is it possible those of you who claim to get sloooow dl's ALSO are on this old data plan and THAT's why it's so slow for them? And second, why didn't anyone tell me the whole time I had to deal with these schmucks for the last two weeks, that I needed a different data plan to achieve the full potential of the phone? Why don't they advise people with this older data plan that the speeds are not the same as the newer plans? They definitely never advertised the new plans as being faster than the older one's so how the hell was I ever supposed to know?
Have you ran a speed test? If not get the app from the play store and then go into the T-Mobile store and ask them what is up.

Of course I did, how else do you think I know? I've already asked and been told that my plan doesn't support the speeds. I was getting the exact same speeds in multiple places, as I did with my Sensation so I know this is true. I did change my plan, but apparently, it won't take effect until my next billing cycle, which seems stupid to me but whatever. I just don't understand why they've never tried to push a better, possibly more expensive, data plan?

What data plan do you have?
I'm using T-Mo's old Android data plan and i'm getting Faux G speeds of 7-13Mbs. You don't need to upgrade your plan to get faster speeds. I do believe they have to provision the device for use of their 42Mb service but that should have been done when they activated your new sim card. Do you know which plan you had before?

T-Mobile's enhanced backhaul 3G service isn't that much faster in real use than normal 3G. Important to realize Tmobile doesn't have a 4G network, just an enhanced 3G one.
I have a Dell Streak 7 (cell now turned off) that barely outpaced their normal 3G.
Are you in a 4g area? Home isn't for me but work is... big difference between the 2

Depending on where you live (how far away from the nearest tower) your reception is going to be impacted differently than others. I myself live in Arlington Heights which is about 25-30 minute outside of Chicago.
Here's what I get on T-Mobile with my GS3. Speeds for me are perfect. Remember T-Mobile doesn't have true LTE 4G. They use HSPA+ which is like 3.5G.

Yeah, you have the plan they say I need. That or the 5gb plan, but I have the old $30 data plan that i guess has the 5gb threshold. One of the mods in the TMO forum told me my plan is fine. So why you are getting double the speeds I'm getting, in the same exact town? So I ended up calling tech support and she tried to do something but I swear whatever she did, my speeds are actually a tad slower now.
So i guess its just a bad signal at home. I live by Johnnies Beef and get terrible speeds. Went to Olive Garden by Woodfield mall last night and was pullin in over 20mbps. Crazy how a couple miles makes such a huge difference.
Hold on. When you upgraded your phone, did they require you to upgrade your plan also? I hardly use over 2gb a month and I'd like to keep it that way, not some gimmick 5gb for $30

I have yet to even go over 2.5gb on LTE. Everyone gets limited either LTE or HSPA. 3GB on HSPA and 5GB on LTE.
Unlimited data customers with a 3G or 4G smartphone will be slowed down if they use more than 3GB of data or more in a billing cycle. Those with next-generation 4G LTE phones can use up to 5GB before speeds slow down.
Nothing is unlimited anymore. Not even the grandfather plans. Better research
Enjoy your slow HSPA, I'll enjoy 60+ meg download speeds.
Edit: People who think LTE doesn't matter, haven't been on LTE.

Um... I'm on WIFI and thats FASTER than LTE. When I'm at home and work I'm on wifi, and when I'm out i'm on HSPA+ (I rarely even spend any time on my phone when I'm out having fun so there really is no need for me to have super fast speeds...

?? You are kidding right? My phone pulls the same speed on wifi that my home computer does. That's about 35-40Mbps Down and 3Mbps Up.
Oh and it's priced at $722.97 today.

Sent from my Nexus 7 using xda app-developers app
just looking at that page tells me that the seller has some attitude...doesnt seem very friendly to be honest
Edit: never mind, found my answer and ordered from newegg. Thanks!
Quick question. I am confused about how the specs are presented. Newegg and the ebay auction listed in the OP say 3G. If it has the appropriate bands, will it get "HSPA+" on AT&T?

That's nice. But a lot of us don't run servers from our phones. HSPA+ is fast enough and the $10 Unlimited MediaNet Data makes it attractive as well.

Please screenshot your WiFi speed tests cause I haven't seen any phones doing 20Mb over WiFi while I have seen phones do that on lte, your home internet must be amazing

I just did a test and I was getting around 19Mbps down and 6Mbps up on my home wifi. But why does this even matter unless you're downloading LARGE files ON your phone? who downloads large files on their phones? Honestly, 1Mbps is MORE THAN ENOUGH for usual day to day email checking and for web browsing and I'm pretty sure 99% of people do just that instead of downloading large files on their CELL network. And its funny, because even if you downloaded LARGE files using uTorrent on your phone using LTE you would run out of your monthly limit and AT&T would charge you another 30 for 3GB data... lol. So not only is LTE a BIG gimmick, but its stupid to be downloading stuff using your LTE network. I mean whats the point of having LIMITED LTE on your phone when you can get UNLIMITED HSPA+? On my AT&T UNLIMITED HSPA+ i get 10Mbps down... its is WAY more than what I need and if i wanted to download something using uTorrent on my phone I can do that WITHOUT worrying I would get charged for going over since there is no limit!! My brother also uses unlimited HSPA+ on his galaxy note and downloads 13gb of data every month and he's been doing it for over 6 months now. I doubt he's 'missing' out on LTE.
