Does this mean the upgraded 3g will be live (and noticeable) then too?

That is a big 10-4 there, good buddy.

The 3G upgrades will come online at the same time as the 4G LTE.

Looking forward to it.

So? Lol wish I lived somewhere that would get LTE before the end of 2012. They aren't supposed to start in Michigan until around October or later.

**sparkeater79** · 06-29-2012, 12:42 PM

I live in Austin, and service everywhere from Killeen to San Antonio in central Texas. I go to San Antonio 2-3 times a week so I am excited to check out the upgraded 3g (using the e4gt). Next, just looking forward to Austin getting the new fast speeds.

Looking forward to them "flipping the switch" in just a little over 2 weeks.

It's going to be Legen...wait for it and I hope you are not lactose intolerant...DARY!!!!!

So does this mean Sprint is dumping Wimax?

Last I heard is that it will be phased out completely by 2015.
As they are no longer selling any WiMax phones, whatever the masses have now will last through the rest of their 2 year contract, and then some.

LTE is the future. Glad Sprint has joined us for the ride.

Maybe 30 million people is a precious few? In Atlanta I'm one of 'em. Checking my Evo4G LTE every day!

Out of 260 million, it is just a few. The Chosen Few.

I am checking mine everyday too. I don't even know what the 4G icon on my phone looks like.
I will know soon enough.

Which chosen spot are you in, Mav?

I too am in the Atlanta Metro area. I live in Statham (between Winder and Athens) and I work in Norcross. Per the maps I have seen, the tower I can see from my driveway at home is Sprints and will be LTE active.

Can't wait.

We are all part of the lucky few to get the first round of Sprint's 4G LTE.
It's gonna be great.
Really looking forward to it.

I am holding off buying an Evo LTE until i see speed. I work in Atlanta and its not that good and I live in Loganville off old loganville rd and the best i can get with 3g is .5 to 1 meg download

**Luca_Blight** · 07-06-2012, 01:16 AM

I'm also in the Atlanta area Stone Mountain to be exact. So hope lte reaches out here. The most I've gotten on 3g was 2.1mbps down but that was at like 4am and never saw it again.

Wait just got it again here is some pics first one is me on Wi-Fi tether app playing Tera lol. The second one is using coverage map speed test app and last is the speed test.net app. The ping is a little high but not that serious it's getting the job done lol. Guess sprint is really improving its 3g after all. Just hope lte is even better.

Buford in the house! I know Athens is a concentration spot for LTE in Atlanta...so I'm hopeful that well benefit out here by the mall if Georgia as a result"

According to the maps I have seen, they got towers along 85 through Gwinnett County and also along 316 into Athens.
Coverage for LTE in the ATL looks really good.
Not too much longer.
