Since we know T-Mobile is working on converting a lot of their edge network to HSPA or LTE I wanted to have a thread to see if you have noticed any differences in your areas.

As for me I used to have edge at a mall that us between where I live (Jacksonville) and Orlando. Outside and inside.. Pretty much all around here was edge... As of today it is a strong LTE connection... Even in doors I'm holding a 1/4 bar LTE connection and as you can see below.. It ain't bad! :).

So what about you? Noticing any improvements to edge areas where you live?

Ah, band 4 isn't edge. It is Tmobile's current 4GLTE. If it were refarmed edge, then it would be band 2.

Hm wonder if they just changed it out? I definitely remember being on edge since I was bored out of my mind while the gf shopped :p.

They could have added a 4GLTE tower or upgraded the existing tower for 4GLTE capabilities.

There used to be a map of user refarm sightings... Hosted on a .de of all things. That site's domain was not renewed and it is gone.

I'm in a tertiary market (at best). We did get LTE into the Springfield, MO area recently, but I wobble between LTE and H+ (4G label). Away from town it is EDGE.
