Any evo lte owners in Houston?

[anon(21918)]

I am seeing similar 3g speeds. These are 2x - 5x better than what I have been seeing over the past 3-4 weeks.

Now I am waiting on that LTE switch to be turned on.

Still pretty lousy 3G speeds in Southwest Houston 'burbs.
35-85k down, 200-400k up today.

Data speeds suck. 3G keeps disconnecting, and Im getting dial up speeds at ALL times. Im in Southeast houston, but i go all over houston all the time. When I had my Evo 3D, my wife used to complain how My Evo 3D was much faster tham her I Phone even with 4g off. Now that I have the "LTE", my wife's I Phone is faster, This has got to be some kinda sin or something in the android community. Ridiculous.

Same lousy speeds here. Also in the southwest 'burbs so I guess no surprise. Would be nice to have a data connection that was actually usable.

According to my sprint rep, 4G will supposedly be active tomorrow here in Houston....keep your fingers crossed.

Stopped by the sprint store today and the rep said lte would be up next week.tomorrow or next week I just want it to be turned on so I can finally see if it was worth the wait.

Am I the only one that thinks it may be some time still before we actually see usable LTE in Houston and surrounding areas?

I think the issues with 3G disconnecting might be resolved with a phone call to sprint. Last night I called and they gave me some # # codes to type in and reset my Activation. It's one step more to updating your PRL and Profile. The 3G at least stays on now. I'll let you all know how today goes while I'm driving around.

Well today is kinda BS..... like many others, i thought that today would be the official day that Sprint launches their LTE here in Houston (and many other cities). Well today is just a day that they announce the official LTE launch day.....July 15th. ridiculous IMO.

Sprint Community: Announcements: Network Vision: Sprint 4GLTE arrives July 15th

At least we have a date now. Never had a firm date before as everything was just rumor. I guess July 15th is still middle of the year which is what we've always been told.

Just watched the video at the link above. 30-50% better 3G speeds. So now instead of 60kbps I can get 80-90kbps on 3G. Man, that is going to be awesome :-\

Can't wait for the 15th!

Driving around today on Westheimer near Shepherd and noticed that I had 4G.

Hey guys,

On the site where the actually launch date is shown mentioned that the LTE will be at 40%..Does this mean that Houston and its surrounding areas may not be covered? What does 40% mean?
