Just not sure how accurate this app is.. I know it works cause it highlights areas that work really good.. But as you can see in this picture I have 2 bar LTE in my backyard yet I dont have it in my area just yet .. Unless im just picking up a weak signal , also it doesnt highlight stage/covington pike which I get 5 bar LTE and 30mb down speeds.

I called Sprint - Germantown near Collierville is a HUGE problem. There is a 3G tower on East Holmes Road that has been facing Capacity issues since September 7th. As a result, your phone can show near full bars and inbound texts/calls may not go through, or outbound calls you make will go to voicemaill or ring but the other party may not receive it - same for texts.

As a result, I got a 20$ credit on my account, as I do alot of business and personal stuff near that tower. They say that we'll be getting LTE soon but we'll see about that..

I used to live over in the Shelby drive/hacks cross area. The 3G absolutely sucks over there. I hope it gets the proper LTE attention it deserves.

By the way, is anybody else getting LTE signals other than from the Bartlett/Cordova/Germantown area? Anything from downtown? If so, please map on sensorly so we'll know.

Here is a screen shot of a speed test done at Popeye's on Hacks Cross south of 385. Download speed is fairly decent, but not the upload.

That is pretty decent compared to my experiences in that area. Maybe they've made some 3G improvements recently.

Yeah, next time I am out there I will run the test again. Here is what I just got at Raines / Mendenhall.

Ive gotten LTE at the airport , on the backside near the post office off Shelby Drive.. I was delivering to Gate Gourmet and had 2-3 bar signal.. Think the speeds were in the range of 10 down 3 up ..

And yes ATT and Verizion have it rolled out in Memphis , but atleast Sprint is working on it.. It isnt even rolled out here yet so I guess having some is better then none.
