Sprint 4G LTE coming to East Michigan?!! - Epic 4G General

So I was searching other carriers and their LTE coverage, and pretty much decided on Verizon. But I came across this article, and it mentions east Michigan's LTE is supposed to go live by the end of the year! So I think I can get by on crappy 3g and wifi for the most part and stay with sprint:fingers-crossed:

Lucky you.. Since i'm in an area with wimax, it seems there's no plan to push lte here. Leaves me with my epic till the end of my contract and see if sprint has anything by then. If not i may jump ship to a different carrier..

Yeahhh Sprint is behind, big time..i think i read last week Verizon sold some 4g spectrum to t-mobile, you could consider their value plans which are a very good deal but you have to pay retail for the phone unless you get it from Costco ( search slickdeals.net)

They hate Oklahoma too. However, sprint will bring LTE to all of these areas before the end of 2013.

Yea... I've been getting 4G at the seaport since launch. I was also able to get it at Giants stadium last week.
Im in the lower east side manhattan, And i've gotten 1-2 bars from my 12th floor apt..
like 6mbps/1.5mbps not too bad..cant wait for FULL OFFICAL 4g with always FULL 3 bars.. thats gonna be crazy
I was down near Battery Park last week and had 4G service.
Nice to know White Plains is rolling out 4G, use to live there couple years ago. Now I am in CT and they are rolling out 4G in random places right now. I have it outside at my house currently, but for the small town I live in it truly makes no sense why here.
here's a few shots of it running from my lower east side apartment:

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.

The weaker the signal the slower your speeds are going to be.

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.

At&t officially starting to BLACKLIST lost & stolen phones

This is straight from the top. Basically if you put your SIM in a phone that is blacklisted, it will automatically suspend your line until you get another phone. I will try to get a copy of the memo up here at some point today, but the system is active immediately, so be careful.
MEMO:

Vzw is doing the same thing as well and sprint and tmo from my understanding.

The rollout of blocklisting has been pushed back for undisclosed reasons. It's still happening, but more time-sensitive resources are showing that the rollout has been temporarily paused.
Also, as stated in the memo, this will actually only apply to stolen devices unless the customer requests otherwise. In the case of lost, suspension is still the recommended action.

They are making a cross carrier list now from what I read somewhere.
Sent from my ADR6425LVW using Tapatalk 2
Yep, CDMA carriers have done this with ESNs for ages. The big difference now is that by October the list will be compiled and shared by all carriers, and it'll work for GSM.
Also, as of today it looks like blocklisting is active at ATT.

We had our first example of this earlier this week. Someone came in with a phone they had just "been given" and a few mins after putting their SIM card in, their account was suspended.
He called in while in the store and was told he couldn't get it reactivated for 30 days. The only thing that I'm not sure of is whether the phone was blacklisted by the person who lost it or by at&t automatically when reported.. Still trying to figure that part out.

I bought a $3 unlimited day plan just to test it. In the Ventura/Oxnard area my N7000 is still on edge.
Glad to hear that! Getting this phone for my mom and she actually lives near Rosemead on TMO so hopefully she'll get the faster data.
Not in Jacksonville Fl yet as it shows...
I'm not sure how accurate that site is, or how often it really updates the information. For example, I'm in Jacksonville, FL where it's supposed to have gone live a day ago; that's not the case... I'm still getting edge.

Dissatisfied with EVO, what's wrong with you!!!

I glanced over at the sprint forum and folks are enraged that the Oct 25th release is actually just online & telephone order, and the device wont ship for about 4-10 days. I want the device but not that bad to throw a childish tantrum like a 6yo.
Yeah its a cool phone but it wont change my life it wont give me a raise and it's more important things to concern your self that unboxing on the 25th. Are women gonna give me a cell number and say call me I like your phone.. NO...that's what the Yamaha r1 and Mercedes is for..lmao.
3 additional phones will be dropping in the first quarter so I can still wait. Some of you are in need of a new phone since that evo might be on its last leg. My evo works fine and thanks for development of cool roms to keep me busy.
So for me its still no rush, cause the evo works , I rather wait for the kinks to get ironed out.. and I want gameloft MC4 working out the gate.. none of that device is not compatible crap....
Ummm what are you talking about? What evo 4g is shipping out the 25th??
