Not currently on the radar.

Its a small world after all..... how ya been?

Not sure this will be the same as OKC but I saw in the sprint forums OKC was scheduled first of 2011, but Best Buy says it probably be this fall and in some places in Oklahoma 4g is being tested... i would take that with a grain of salt though.

I've heard that they are setting up the infrastructure and testing it. I'd imagine it would be sometime 2011. Again, just hearsay though.

I used to work at the sprint call center in okc that has 4g tech support (i know y have 4g tech in a place that has no 4g) they told us okc will get it in the spring where the call center is on nw expressway and council there is a 4g tower next in but they won't turn it on

As far as Tulsa goes, I turned on 4g yesterday on my epic and was able to pick up a weak signal around 7st and memorial. I guess Sprint is in the testing phase right now

I connected at 71st and Mingo. It took some scanning but I finally connected with 2 bars.

Do you think maybe the store at 71 across from the QT between Memorial and Mingo may have a small 4G tower to show it off, and you are picking that up? Or do you think they have actually started turning it on in Tulsa.

No, I called my buddy at that store and asked if 4g was officially here, he said no but it is in testing phase. I also asked of they have a 4g airave installed and he said that they did not. So welcome to beta wimax in tulsa.

Well I'm at 71 a Yale, but on a CM 6.2 with no 4g. I guess I will try out the the 4G version of it tonight.
Will post later on what I get at 71 and Yale.

My Sprint store said that Fort Smith Arkansas would see it around the end of 2011. We are way smaller than Tulsa so I would say before then?

Sprint 4g in Tulsa
There is a Sprint 4g tower on in downtown Tulsa. Signal is weak but the speed is great. Can't wait for more towers to be activated.

I connected to 4G in Stillwater tonight so it has to be real soon

Pics or it didnt happen? I got some screenies,
I was sitting at Haruno Sushi Bar at a booth inside by the Sushi Bar. On a side note they have the best Sushi in town
I was fluxing between 0-2 bars.

Speed Test.

4G is soo FAIL
LOL about 1/8th of what I've gotten on Tmobile in the same areas on my Nexus One. But I'd still rather have Sprint because Tmobile bounces between Edge, 1G, 3G, and HSPA nonstop, without your phone ever moving. Nothing like waiting for HSPA to kick in while your waiting for a simple weather widget to refresh. I'll be curious to see what Sprint does when its finally rolled out here but I am not hopeful it will be anykind of useful. At least with Sprint I can turn the nonsense off and they are a little faster than Cricket.

This is what I've been saying, technology isn't perfect.
No amount of money can protect you from problems.

Sprints 4G has not gone down and we have five times the amount of users. 3G works fine in most areas except his borough on NY.
Either way, tech is tech, things happen.

You know I could explain what went wrong here, but I'm slightly enjoying the I told you so feeling. Also, I'd rather wait to see it reach 2 million LTE subscribers before I mention my reasoning. Having said that, Verizon's LTE strategy is fantastic for the consumers, and their 3G/4G offering is currently better than Sprint's. To say your carrier's 3G works fine everywhere but NYC is laughable and silly. Steps were made to make both 3G/4G more enjoyable for the customers, and your patience will be rewarded.

Sprints network works fine except areas being upgraded where towers are being removed and integrated into one, we know this already, so yes it works fine in most areas believe me. The only reason I mentioned NY is because that's his area.

Thank god I have the AT&T network to fall back on when it comes to data. I live in NJ and the service has gone to ****s.
Sent from my PC36100 using XDA App

Sprint's network works great, except where it doesn't. Their 4G has never gone down, especially where it hasn't gone up yet.

Well, apparently I don't live in "most areas". Speeds here in Reno, Nevada range from barely tolerable to pathetic. At my house I average about 200 kbs down with a low of 87 kbs to just over 500 kbs. At work, in the middle of town, it averages a little better, around 800 kbs, but is much more erratic with lows around 100 kbs, and very rare highs of around 1600 kbs. Bottom line though, virtually all other carriers are faster than Sprint is here, by a pretty good margin. And it has been that way for about six months now. And then their is the 4g that was promised by the end of the year when I got my phone last June, lets just say I am not holding my breath. I think it would be a pretty good bet that all the other carriers will have 4g here before Sprint does.
That said, I am not necessarily a disgruntled customer. With the exception of Verizon, Sprint has the best coverage here, But Verizon's 4g probably won't get here any sooner than Sprints. ATT's phone call quality sucks, even though their 3g data speeds are at least 2-3 times faster than Sprint on Sprints best day. And Tmobile has the best speed of all, but their coverage totally sucks. So they all have their pros and cons. I'll stick it out for another year, until my current contract runs out. If Sprint doesn't get their act together by then though, I will definitely consider moving on.

I've been with Sprint since 1999 and I'm not going anywhere; I'm a stick it through with them until their network gets better. However, I doubt that Sprint has been integrating the new system into the old one for over half a year in my area. In that amount of time, you would assume that at least one tower would be upgraded by now. My 3G service has 1x speeds everywhere I go in Miami.
Maybe it's one of those things where they can't flip the switch until EVERYTHING is upgraded......I don't know. However, anytime my girl sends me a short video of my kid doing something cute, it's a 20+ minute wait to download 5 MBs if I don't have 4G coverage or WiFi. I used to brag about how fast my phone was and now I try to sneak out of any conversation that has to do with data speeds. lol

DirtyShroom is thirsty to make his employer look good. Networks go down, and you act as if any of Sprint's network has never gone down before. Guess what, it has, and it probably will again.
BTW - I have absolutely no affiliation with Verizon. Don't even have an account with them (EVO/Sprint + ATT/iPhone). What I have said in the past is that:
A) Sprint's EVDO network in NYC is pathetic right now, and most signs point to overcapacity.
B) Verizon's LTE is both faster and more usable because of it's frequency.
So it seems as if Verizon's LTE network is currently down, doesn't effect me, and by the end of the day, it probably won't effect anybody.

all sprint towers being converted to 4g towers!!!!

Ok so I called Sprint because of my horrible 3g speeds and he told me it was because of my area..which is true since I live in downtown..but he told me not to worry because all Sprint towers will be converted to 4g and then he said its gonna be as fast as regular cable internet..not sure about that part but we will see!!!!!!!!!

Did they say any kind of time frame? Does 4g & 3g even run on the same tower? Sure he wasn't just feeding you something? If the signal is too bad and you complain enough they will give you an airave

Actually, Sprint is in the process of converting old towers which required separate componants for 3G and WIMAX and converting them into new, smaller, all-inclusive towers so that they will be 3G/4G

Sprint doesn't own any Wimax equipment, it belongs to Clearwire.
Clearwire will only be building out 4G Wimax sites in major cities, the suburbs will be built out by OpenRange..
so, there can never be a combined 3g/4g cell site, they will always have separate equipment for both.

But thanks for the $30 credit on my $190 bill I got slapped with this month.
US Cellular customers in the area get blazing fast 3G speeds...
I would have switched but I love my Evo Shift so much
Tried the latest radio upgrade, nothing new...
I'm smack dab in Waterloo, IA
WHY WOULD YOU LIE SPRINT?
Sorry, just venting a little bit. Anybody else near me getting the same crap 3G speeds?

I have the same problems with My phone. I believe it might be cm7. When I was sense I got about .60-.90 mbps upload. Now I can barely get passed .30 mbps upload and sometimes it shows .10mbps upload.
I also noticed on cm7 that i go into 1x a lot now. Places where I would usually get 3g I get 1x signal. It's kind of a pain.
edit: At first I thought the radio update did something, but it really didn't help.

Scroll all the way to the bottom.
Change only the last two lines.
Http Proxy Port to 0 that is a "Zero"

I'm not sure if you meant 'Reset' or 'Restore' --- but, there is an issue if you update your data profile and then update PRL that will cause your data profile to get messed up.. I followed the steps in this thread, and now my 3G is perfect... Specifically - the portion dealing with restoring, having the phone reboot, letting it to handsfree activation, and then cancelling the PRL update.
http://androidforums.com/evo-4g-tips-tricks/280082-major-solution-fix-your-slow-3g-speeds-evo4g.html
I was only getting a maximum of 90-100kbps before doing this..
If you want the essentials of that post:
Select Data Profile
Hit Menu
Select restore
Hit OK to reboot...
PAY ATTENTION TO YOUR PHONE
After going through the set up process (Handsfree Activation, LET IF FINISH) you will select ok
YOU HAVE TO HIT CANCEL WHEN IT STARTS LOOKING FOR A PRL UPDATE

They finally got 4g here in Tucson, but they having problems with some spectrum that penetrates through buildings because of how close the border to mexico is, so we have half way decent 4g outdoors but no signal at all indoors.
And they are saying they will not be allowed to use that where I live for years to come, so its pretty worthless to be on sprint.

Here is my speedtest in Cusco, Peru. So far I done about 1.5gb of roaming on the free data.

NOVA speed for reference

LOL, T-Mobile advertise this as a capped 2G speed.
Connection seems like it's always been on 3G.
Also I came over from Sprint and I do know the feeling with Sprint Data sucks ass.

Same story here! Switched to T-Mobile here in DC Metro area after not being able to connect to 4G inside the buildings on the lower floors. Also, no 4G inside my condo on the 3rd floor. It was just so incredibly annoying. The only thing I miss is a more reliable connection inside metro stations.

Please read the thread. We're sharing data info for overseas. This is for "unlimited international data".

This thread is pointless. You can connect to whatever network is available (3G, 4G... maybe even LTE) but it WILL cap your speeds to what you're seeing unless you pay for high speed data passes.

This is the same speed I got in Malaysia and Singapore. Its good for email and Whatsapp and GPS. Not good for youtube. Its better than nothing! Long live T-mobile and thank you!
