verizon GS3

[ericizzy1]

hi, have the gs3 on verizon, and the LTE on it seems a bit slow, when listening to online tunein music, it will buffer sometines, and when watching netflix, its a bit choppy.
tried in several places with 2 different phones, same resault.
can anyone think of a fix? thanks

Not sure if this is an actual problem. But every smartphone I have owned has had this problem. Some days I have great service and some days not so much.

A lot of that may not actually be a result of a faulty phone but the service in your area. I recently moved to a much more populated area and saw a ridiculous drop in my LTE speeds. I'm talking approx 1/2 or less than 1/2 the speed I was seeing before. Most of it is just due to the shear number of phones sucking cells signal and also distance to towers etc. You may try calling Verizon to see if they are aware of what average speeds for LTE are supposed to be in your area. It could be related to your phone but my guess is it is tied to the VZW network.
