Started at 30mps and dropped to 15. I had full reception on the south loop and main. I lost it when I went towards Bellaire.

This is why Sprint is gone for me..How do you lose FULL reception in less than a 2 mile radius.. Can't deal with Sprint anymore they must go!!

Still in testing when live is when it should be judged

I figured it would be testing soon, so I have been keeping it on . It's still faster than the 3g network with no lte.

If you recall, when you are connected, what is the icon on the top of the screen say?
Does the "3G" change to "4G" or is it something else?
Thanks.

A colleague has SPRINT for his personal phone and while having lunch in the Galleria he had 4G LTE for a few minutes before we went inside for lunch.

I had him download the Speed Test application and it was averaging about 20Mbps down and 6Mbps up.

For any wireless network that is good IMHO, no it is not the 50Mbps I saw on at&t Mobility nor the 35Mbps on VZW, but for SPRINT which is more of a value provider I should think that 20Mbps is good (about equal to Cable i-net).
