it sure is.

Hmmm I'm in portage right now cannot seem to get it. Of course I am inside a steel building, maybe that is why.

Where in Kzoo? I had heard that around campus they had it but haven't tested.

I fliped on mine in NH and got a connection today ... the only thing is that I only get one bar and can get faster speeds with 3g

If you are not in the green on the map then the map will probably be updated in a week or two. Do not expect more than one or two towers in areas. It is just so clear can hang on to the licenses.

Lol. The map has coverage all around my apt but not at my apt in portage. Wtf

I got 4G to connect in my house about 15 minutes south of Lansing! I thought this would NEVER happen. They haven't officially made 4G "available for purchase" in the area yet either (according to the website at clear.com). Does this mean the signal still could be enhanced or stronger before it is officially available?

coming home from Eastpoint, I clicked it on by accident, waited for it to cycle off and noticed I had 4g signal at 8 and Vandyke in south Warren. It was slow as ****, but there.

I checked the map and it appears as though there's 4G around all the colleges here.. It was cool to be 'near' Notre Dame and flip on the 4G and get a connection.. didn't have time to do a speed test, the light turned green

I have heard talk that Dan Hesse visited ND (as an alum) and then promised to have 4G coverage around town by football season. I hope that's true. I live just across the river from St. Mary's and can't pick up a signal, but did pull down 3.5 Mbps downtown.

I had an appointment Thursday morning across from St. Joe High school on Angela blvd. Just for grits and shiggles, I flipped on my 4G and connected !!.. I didn't have time to do a speed test.. but I figured I was too far from holy cross college there and notre dame for it to work.. it did work.. Tuesday I'll check it out again w/ a speed test.
Pretty cool to know there are at least 3 ppl from South Bend, IN here.. we should meet up for a brewski sometime

Probly no one from nh... my connection has gotten better im getting like 2.5mb/s

There have been reports though that somewhere near bell rd in northern phoenix, you can connect during the night. Some say they were doing testing out there.
If you want to track where people have gotten 4g coverage, download the Sensorly app on the market. It's very helpful to see where Sprint is expanding coverage as you can see a lot of places before Sprint announces them.

Or just go to clear.com/coverage and see the new places. They seem to update the maps every Monday or so.
Sweet! I'll be travelling to Phoenix next week. I'll have to check for signal while I'm driving around the city.
There's a little blob over around 7th and Bell. I've been obsessively checking the clear maps for months and our two Phoenix blobs haven't grown yet.

Terrible speeds in Atlantic City but that has been the case for a while.

I live in the San Fernando valley CA and my 4g is greatcoat here inside and out
I have steady 4G, in suburbs of LA.
I have a tower outside my office, and if I'm outside, 4 bars. Once I go inside, the building....poof it is gone. Which is normal for the very high frequency WiMax is on, it just does not penetrate walls very well. Connection speed during the day is horrible, but goes up when normal people are still sleeping 4am, it might hit 5 mbps.

Depends on where you are. On my 3D i get a connection on the edge of my bed lmao. Whenever I travel to central west palm my 4G is kicking ass.

I have decent coverage when traveling around Nashville TN but when I'm inside a building, or my house, I'm lucky to stay connected and have more than 1 or 2 "curved bars". penetration sucks with Wimax.

I have a steady 4g and I live in NYC as well, specifically Williamsburg. I get about 4 bars outside, one to two bars while inside.
When I lived at my parents house in the Bronx, I got full signal from inside their apartment and it was great.
Where do you live that you get bad coverage? I always considered NYC to have great coverage, but so never tried it in Queens. It may be worst there.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App
I'm in St. Louis, and I find it to be pretty thin. As others have mentioned, the frequency means that it just doesn't work well indoors. And it destroys my already terrible battery life. However, if I can get a signal, and if I'm near a charger, the speed is very nice.
Overall I'd say my WiMax experience is a C-.
HERE IS A FACT. this is A FACT! Sprints 4G network is a joke. They have no real workable 4G network. Having a tower here and there doesn't work! Sprint HAS NO PLANS IN ANY FORM OR WAY TO INCREASE THEIR WIMAX 4G NETWORK! They are coming out with LTE phones for a reason. because they are stupid and don't know how to run a company. Other companies LTE networks were LARGER than Sprints ON THEIR FIRST DAY TURNED ON!
My biggest annoyance with 4g is that sometimes it won't load a webpage. With 2-3 bars of 4g even. The progress bar will get about halfway, then stall out. It downloads files quick, but for some reason just has issues with webpages.

I had the same problem when i first got my Evo and I was pissed, when I called Sprint, we went through all kinds od procedural BS, but after a month of calls to Sprint and HTC, we came to the conclusion that it was a hardware issue and could not be repaired, so they gave me a new phone. Then I was getting 5 Mb per second. I advise you to let Sprint know and do not give up, they will replace your phone with whatever you want, make sure to let them know how pissed you are, it helps
