Disappointed much? I live in NYC, i'm on 25 and Broadway most of the day and i can barely get 4G, it flips to 3G all 4 bars nearly the whole day but hardly gives me 4G and i think that's kinda weird to have such bad coverage in Manhattan...

Anyone else?

Probably just your area, I don't think mine has been on 3G since I've had it.
 
Re: 4GLTE ????

yeah it might be your area, I'm on 26th and Park Ave had a similar issue now that I'm back home uptown Manhattan no problem with 4G. did you get your bionic from 34th street?
 
Re: 4GLTE ????

My office is on 47th and park but my buildiing is a death zone for cellphone coverage. Most times i go from 3g to 1x but when at home in the Financial District i have a solid LTE connection. Even when i step outside my office my bionic grabs 4G LTE.

No actually i got my device on wednesday from telesales via fedex.
 
Re: 4GLTE ????

I could also be due to what kind of radio you have. There is HSPDA and LTE. Generally from what I learned, HSPDA has a lot of trouble penetrating biuldings and large structures. On the other hand, LTE has a better and greater penetration on structures hense the big push for the latter on the big companies.

I'm in Manhattan as well and I've had fully uninterrupted 4G since I picked it up last night.
 
Re: 4GLTE ????

When I was in a full 4g area, I had no issues. Where I live is a 4g extended area, outside is 4g, inside is 4g upstairs with no issues but bounces back and forth between 3g and 4g on my 1st floor.

It's really a non issue since I use wifi at home anyway.

I get solid 4G outside, but can't even keep a 3G signal in my office. :'( My office is underground tucked away in the corner of the building. Such is the life of an IT geek.
