Either that or AT&T just switched on HSPA+ here in Boston
looks good...either way it helped you out a lot!
No difference for me in dc area.
It's just 3g on steroids
Sent from my MB860 using XDA App
In Iowa City, IA, I've been able to get over 5 on a couple attempts since the HSUPA update, but typically average around 4. Definitely an improvement, especially with boosted upload speeds, but still not even close to this phone's capability.
New Port Richey on top (normally 1-1.5 up) and the poor ones were today at lunch in Oldsmar. Always poor there during the day, but can usually get at least 1. I don't think they can handle the traffic.
Mine actually went down when going to 1.8.3, thinking about flashing back to 5.7 and doing the radio mod thingy (so technical) and going back to the average of 4.5mbps. Now I get luckly if I reach 2mbps
While I was tethered last night I recorded speeds of 7.21 D/L and 1.58 U/L. This was in North Jersey.
I get the same speeds as my gf's iphone (1 - 3meg down / 1,2meg up)
So I don't think hspa+ is working yet..

I would agree if the speed were consistent, but it's not.

Heh,
I was at my Dad's office scanning and faxing a document for a client through myfax and man I was stuck at 300kb/sec and the total size was about 16MB. Needless to say, it took a while
Two days later I get the Gingerblur'd version of the newest update and I'm hitting 1Mb/sec up and those PDF files weren't too much of a problem.
It really does make a difference.
I am in Harrisburg, PA and I can get speeds up to 6500kbps dl and 2100kbps ul. Very Nice!

Coming off VZ and the thunderbolt...this is just right...14mb is cool but you can only use it a few hours cause your battery is lunch meat. Perfect balance between speed and battery life...
Not to mention max speed for me on vz 3g was only 300 k.

for the first time since ive had sprint im getting the speed they've always claimed but ive never reached...im just wondering if anyone in and around pearland can tell me if they have similar speeds....i just know this isnt going to last but still a bit excited my 3g has never reached 3 or even crept past 1
I got 9 down in beverly hills yesterday with 4G, that was cool.
lol im so excited because well i have never seen 3Mbps on 3g on sprint, ive gotten 889kbps at most, i now this wont hold up for very long because if it could my 3g here wouldnt be so shoddy...this whole town is saturated in 4g and i cant get it on my evo for more then a min before losing it and my neighbor who has a franklin 4g stick gets 2bars and 500kbps on 4g...its ridiculous
I used to get 3 mbs down speed at the beginning of last year in the St. Louis area in 3g but its slower now but 4g is about 4.95 down now.

The speed test app isn't very accurate, download xtreme labs test app, its a bit more accurate, speakeasy website I think is better then speedtest.net and just like I figured my 3Mbps over 3g is back down to 600kbps
Best I ever got on 3G was about 2.6mbps. Got a little over 7 on 4G the other day in downtown Houston. Those 10+ speeds are awesome.

Is that with 4G full bars?? thats bad, i get that with 3G in philadelphia, in center city I reached 9mbs early in the morning, then I average 4mbs-7mbs in 4G!!
The 3g in my area always runs at 1.5 to 2.3 but its a small town with not many sprint users.... Sadly I'll probably never see 4g

I noticed my phone seems to stay on UTMS. Not sure why. Though my phone number also shows unknown...
One of the fastest I've recorded around here. Might try it downtown tomorrow to see if it can go even higher.

it may be slower, if you think about it its a higher trafficked area
here's my results. mine usually sticks to umts but occasionally switches to hspa if I'm in the right area (modaco r6 replaces the 3g with an H). usually doesn't increase the speed noticeably though.
dl - 4160
ul - 1595
p - 100ms

Doesn't mean a thing, networks send out generic SIMs now, and that's why it doesn't have a number programmed in

my highest was:
4818 Down, and 2829 up
My fastest have been 4.2D and 1.8U
My ns at home has gotten up to 6 on bionix and 1.8 up. My former mytouch4g would pull 8 and some change.
I would love if it were possible to hack some driver to pop the radio up to 21mbps. Don't know if its possible but I've heard the radio for 7.2 is the same as 21mbps and that its just modulation that changes. Might explain why the vibrant plus will have the 21mbps capability.

Tried it out today and 3g was faster. My 4g speeds sucked, poor signal at Deaconess Hospital area. .45 and .76 mbs down .05 and .57 mbs up. 3g is 1 down and .75 up. Whats up with that?
OK talked to our sprint rep, they are only testing right now. Coverage will go in and out with speeds changing all the time. He didn't know how long before fully operational. They are just testing a few towers right now. What a tease.

Ok I think I'm missing something. Clear shows 4g in Fort Wayne, IN but Sprints coverage show nothing there. I turned it on to see if it would connect, but it just say on scanning...My phone has connected to 4G in Chicago before so I know it works...
They are testing towers all over. Part of sprints 5 billion dollar tower upgrade. Can't wait for finished project.

So, let's post what 3G speeds we get, and where (copying this thread after lurking around the Fascinate forum for a while).

Yea.. I get like 1.5Mbps on a good day.. Southern California, KA7
Try flashing the KB1 modem. I may not get as good battery as with KA7, but I do get MUCH better data speeds.
My average is 3-4 mbps, on a good day i can get 6 mbps. California area and modem is KA5-KA7.

I'm hearing all of this good stuff about KA5-KA7 modems... How is the battery life and how do they hold 3G? I know that KB1 will hold it for a while, but after it drops to 1 bar, I lose 3G and it drops to EDGE.
Well for me battery is the same with KA5-KB1 modems. But KB1 was really a nightmare for me, a lot of data drops.
I've noticed that with the KB1 modem. I just flashed the KA7 modem, and I'm actually holding data for once.
Here's what i have.

This is on KB1. I generally use KA7 because I work in the boonies and that holds the best signal for me out there. But this is for dang-a-lang swang-a-lang lol.
Here is mine. In McKinney, TX sitting here at work. Funny thing is, if I run this again right after this, I only get 1M down and 500k up? It's never consistent.

These numbers are ridiculously low.
I used to get 2.2Mbps for almost a year. But the last month or so, I've been getting 1.2Mbps.

Are you sure you are getting a 3G connection? If you are using the stock EVO rom, it will show 3G even if you have a 1x connection.
I get what the guy above us is getting and I have mik froyo and mikg and they say im 3g but will say 1x if im on 1x but my sg for my evo is 50 lkbps to about 200 with averaging around 130-140 kbps. lol
