Well acourding to that site Tampa will be launched this month. There ate 3rd round markets that are way ahead of most the second list no good
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
It all depends on who's doing the rollout for each area. Samsung upgrades seem to be chugging along in Chicago, Indianapolis, and a bunch of their other markets. Alcatel-Lucent also seems to have a good pace going in their markets. It's the Ericsson markets that seem to be falling the furthest behind.

So, some markets on that list are ahead of schedule, and others are falling behind. That site also has a list of each market's vendors, so you can see if you're in a Samsung, Alcatel-Lucent, or Ericsson market.

Still waiting for high speed in Chicagoland. Been sticking with wimax for a while, afraid to upgrade...finally pulled the trigger on the sgs3 when I heard Chicago got LTE... it's not quite up to par with the rest of the speeds I've been seeing.

In Schaumburg

D: 2357kbps

U: 3423kbps

In Chicago Loop:

D: 4587kbps

U: 4615kbps

Not quite at the double digits we want to see.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] sekigah84:
That is because Chicago has load because it was officially launched. Everyone announcing they have 20+MBPS are usually from areas that aren't live or have so few people that even realize, they get insane speeds. My friend saw 30MBPS in the Bronx and 42nd in Manhattan. Once they go live and more and more people use it, it will slow down drastically. I'd expect 7 or so to be the norm.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
It really depends on how close you happen to be to the tower and what time you're testing. I live in Schaumburg, and I get anywhere from 3 to 7 Mbps in my driveway with a very weak LTE signal (one bar in CM10.1) depending on the time (during the day, I get around 3 or 4 Mbps inside my house; in the middle of the night, I get 6 or 7 Mbps). At Golf and Roselle roads, I got over 20Mbps in the middle of a Saturday because there is a tower very close to there.

Try to find the locations of some towers that are currently broadcasting LTE, and get close to them before you do a speed test. I'll bet you'll be surprised how fast Sprint's LTE can be, especially if you can test during non-peak hours. I'm sure that once Network Vision is finished in Chicago, you'll be seeing double digit speeds more often, but right now, there are still some holes in the LTE coverage, so you're more likely to have a weak signal.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alaman68:
Nope. Nothing here but 3G tumbleweed speed
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ascertion:
This is true, but they're still expanding the Chicago market so he's probably connected to a further away site. I doubt speeds would suffer that much on a newly launched market due to congestion.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
LTE == 4G
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] haynesr07:
Last time I checked 4G was not LTE, the last time i checked....
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] studentjunk:
Sprint 4g is both LTE and Wimax. Before spring started deploying LTE, it called all its 4g-wimax phones "4G". Since then, it's clarified LTE by calling the newer models "4G LTE". Your phone either takes Wimax or LTE, not both. If the phone indicates 4G is connected, then you are getting your respective version of 4G.

Martinsburg should have 4G LTE, but I have not been there with an LTE phone to confirm it. People have mapped it with sensorly before the launch date. Furthermore, this is an GS3 forum, which implies that people commenting have this phone, which is a 4G LTE phone. So if you are reporting 4G, then we assume you are getting LTE.

Bottom line, you both are right, and you both are wrong. It depends on the assumptions before the statement.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] EndlessDissent:
No, I was definitely not wrong. As you said, if he's using an S3, then any 4G he sees is LTE. If he wasn't using an S3, he probably wouldn't be here. And since Sprint is no longer adding Wimax coverage, it's impossible for any new 4G to be anything but LTE. Therefore, for the person I'm replying to, I'm 100% correct.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kg4icg:
4G LTE

For Martinsburg, WV. Shentel is responsible for that part of Sprint's Network, so you weren't going to here a Sprint announcement about it until Shentel was ready to say so. Shentel covers from Harrisonburg, Va up to Harrisburg, Pa along the I 81 corridor and some other areas in Pa.

[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Overstew:
Don't feel bad mate, the Jacksonville market (my market), was supposed to go launch in November. Now it's scheduled sometime in the Spring. From what I hear, it's worth the wait.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alaman68:
the funny thing about this 4G rollout is the fact that 99% of companies always under-promise and over-deliver where clearly Sprint is the opposite. The opposite does tend to lead to more sales but with frustrated members. The ETF's make it possible for any Sprint employee to basically take a steaming dump on my coffee table and my only response would be something along the lines of "you need to stop eating so much Taco Bell and corn". Nothing I can do but sit here with my thumb up my a$$ while Sprint takes their time...

Anyway, I saw the 4G icon on my phone for the first time while driving through Harrisburg the other day. Didn't last long enough for a speedtest (i was doing 90 on the turnpike) but the icon sure looked neato :rolleyes:
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] yaniel06:
I think it's bs that sprint keeps pushing back LTE in philly. The only reason I bought a lte phone in the first place was because it was suppise to be a December roll out. Then it got pushed back to February, now its spring. Gtfoh. So tired with the slow ass 3g speeds
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] Ragnar:
It definitely is worth the wait. The problem I think is more the manufacturer of the products needed and the fact Sprint uses sub contractors and they are all different in each region. They all promise this and that when they bid for the work then milk it to make more money. Sprint pays and we pay. But I have had 4g since November and it's well worth it the 5 or 6 months I had to wait.

Transmitted with a portable device using Xparent Blue Tapatalk 2
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] NYCHitman1:
The exception here being that Sprint never promised anything. All of those dates they stated were estimates, which were given to them by the subcontractors (Alcatel/Lucent, Samsung, and Ericsson). It clearly stated that in the small print as well. A little reading never hurt anyone.

EDIT: www.sensorly.com is your best friend for determining 4G LTE coverage
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] studentjunk:
Sensorly is probably great in active markets. However, in test markets, the towers often go on and off. Sensorly marks indicate that at some point in I don't know how long (maybe ever), somebody had 4g at that spot. In the Dc area, I have seen lots of areas with strong sensorly data that just didn't have 4g.

However, I have to admit that most of the areas on sensorly seem to be staying active now.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] rukin1:
Fort Wayne, Indiana. (OLD). They have upgraded the tower quite a bit since this. It's a little bit faster!
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] kmx:
I can hit 1gb in less than 2 hours easily at these speeds ranging from 5Mbps to 10Mbps on a regular basis at my house.

If I stand in my back yard I can hit over 10Mbps.

But I do live in Los Angeles so I guess I am one of the few lucky ones who receives good sprint coverage on their Samsung Galaxy 3.

And with my rooted phone on the jellybean goodness 7.0.3 rom I still get a good days worth of use out of my battery without charging it in the middle of the day.

But everybody is different and I am enjoying reading all the interesting opinions everybody has about Sprint and the Galaxy 3.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] alaman68:
obviously if i knew harrisburg had active 4g, i clearly knew about sensorly. A little deductive reasoning never hurt anyone.

saying that Sprint never promised anything is a really lame point. I never demanded that the rollout be 100% completed by December, all i did was voice major disappointment over the fact that the rollout date went from December, to January, to February, to Spring. That is the difference between reading and reading comprehension.
[Sprint Samsung Galaxy S III] studentjunk:
What? you may want to edit your post to clarify what you are trying to say, cause I don't understand your point. Unless of course you are just venting and don't care about people understanding what you mean.

the difference between reading and reading comprehension is reading means you can state the words. comprehension means you can explain what you read. i'm not sure how the statement before relates to reading and reading comprehension. looks like you are just trying to argue.

in any case, i sympathize with you. wish sprint's 4g lte network was up and running every where i wanted to go. that's part of the reason why i kept a 4g wimax phone until i started seeing sensorly lte reports in my area.
