Anyone see this yet?

What's your thoughts?

Finally! I guess the BS "testing" by at&t has been completed? LOL

God I hope so. Mine is slow as balls.

Im not holding my breath though.

Ill get excited when I get the update. Til then my speeds are garbage and nothing changes.
Sent from my Desire HD using XDA App

Wow, no wonder my Speeds have sucked eggs... I thought it was a crappy 4G network, but come to find out it's not even a 4G phone yet!
Oh well, shows you how much real in depth research I did... Regardless, I still LOVE this phone!

Well I've been rooted since the second day the Inspire came out. Ive been getting upload seeds of 1.59 on. Hopefully this will increase the overall download and upload speeds.

That article says nothing about 4g. It just says hsupa.

Which is currently what AT&T calls "4G" and its currently disabled out of the box by AT&T... on phones marketed with 4G in the name.
CNET confirmed that AT&T plans to release an OTA enabling HSUPA on the Inspire 4G and Atrix 4G sometime in April, but that's still two months after the phones launched.

I dont know what all the fuss is about. I bought a brand new corvette, was delivered to my home, but it didn't come with the engine installed. The factory is testing the engine for 2 months before they install it in the car! LOL (at&t and their stupid excuses)

AT&T currently calls HSPA+ 4G... not HSUPA. all this says is that HSUPA will be uncrippled so you'll see upload speeds similar to iphones, nexus ones, and inspires with custom roms.

Ha, no one said this was 4G other than att.
The points that its called inspire 4g... yet 3g phones on the same network have the hsupa enabled already.
Its just ass backwards on att's part.
Its missing the "+" at the moment and it shouldnt have been released with this moniker if they knew it wasnt capable.
Its all marketing, the IMT had to change their definition of 4G to accommodate att and t mobile, but because they have an "lte roadmap" they can call hspa+ 4g.
This phone will always be 3.5g, because it is not lte capable.
It just stings as a customer and employee that they crippled this device and justified it by pricing it at $99 with an upgrade. Its one of those "whats the catch?" kinda things.
The catch is you pay them the same for data as an iphone customer, yet you are not able to get the same quality from the network... on a phone thats newer and marketed as being uber fast.
I liked that corvette example...

LOL No i was joking. This is what at&t appears to be doing to us. They released 4G phones that are artificially capped by disabling HSUPA that limits upload speeds to 300kbps. at&t claims that they are "testing" this before they enable HSUPA. It will be 2 months by the time they release the software update to enable HSUPA.

Does anyone know if this update will undo the root?

Are you on a custom ROM? If so, theres no need to update. All the update does is, it enables HSUPA which allows faster upload speeds.

Finally, but still holding breath until it shows 4g speeds on my phone

HAHA ok. I was like "WTF?!" I get my Inspire tomorrow switching from an iPhone 4 so I'm hoping I love it. I've had every iPhone since the 3g. Bit of an Apple whore. Now I'm just bored with iOS.

I finally broke the chains from at&t and rooted my phone. My only regret is that I should've done a long time ago. Now my speeds have tripled. Up yours at&t!!!

Yeah I went from the 1st gen iphone, 3G then to the 3GS. iOS is just that, boring. For 4 or 5 years, the iOS feel is the same. Same icons, same look up until the iphone 4.
Was gonna get the iP4 but then decided to get the Captivate and had nothing but issues with GPS. I got the Inspire and I am totally happy with it.
I am glad I made the switch to android. With an android phone and the awesome support and DEVs here at XDA, it just makes the experience a lot more enjoyable.

Anyone willing to do trade their tbolt?

I have a mint condition fascinate running 2.2, I would be able to add 150 cash on my end.
PS. Don't know if this would be the right section? Mods please redirect me if it isn't.

I second this, great price every month, tho verizon with my company discount is honestly about the same, but the 3G/4G was terrible, and everyone trying to sell me that in home cell module thing, that only helps phone calls, because it would fix my "4G" and therefor I shouldn't leave them. Left them same day for a Thunderbolt with verizon, and in there survey asking why I left, I explained that every employee I talked to was a moron.
Did I also mention I had a Sprint "Manager" start cursing me out because I called him an idiot for telling me the only way I can get 4G is to have my phone off for about 12 hours straight every day?
seriously the worst provider ever. AT&T was better than Sprint, and I told them that

You made out on that trade even with the money involved. Congrats!

Dayton, OH 4G LTE up and running!!

I was excited to see the 4G icon, so I called Verizon to confirm that it is permanent and not just a test. So far, been getting amazing speeds. 7 mbps down, 2 mbps up.
Sent from my ADR6400L using XDA Premium App

mine popped up at 6 i went in the gym with gym and when i started working out i had 4g. ran speedtest and got 19m that could be dangerous

I was waiting for it to kick in today. But Verizon surprised me with the turn on a day early. Woot. Loving the speed boost for sure.

Im glad my fellow Ohians are catching up to the west of me

Well it is great to hear that 4g is finally avail to different company besides tmobile in the miami valley i hope you guys enjoy but hey once you blow up your contract with data overages and need an out come c me for cricket

What areas of Dayton at you getting the hookup? My parents live in Germantown so I highly doubt I'll get anything when visiting but I'm curious to know if it's just the city limits or surrounding areas as well. I live in Columbus but can get 4G at work in Dublin/Hilliard too.

I was in Troy/Piqua yesterday. Sorry no yummy 4G lovin' up that far. Ironically, the wife and I both had to restart our phones when we came back to Dayton before they would resume 4G service. Hopefully the next bug fix will resolve that.

I'm in the Cincinnati Hamilton area, had 4g since day 1. Glad to see Dayton join [email protected] dexter, I have an extra t- bolt laying around I been wanting to try to flash to cricket. If you dont mind getting ahold of me for a how to that would be great, if not that's cool to.

you only get 1x internet on cricket if you flash over a thunderbolt. Not really worth it. It will be almost useless.

I'm in Jonesboro AR. Jonesboro was one of the first places on Alltel to get EvDO back in the day. I guess Verizon has pretty much forgotten about Jonesboro AR.

Hell most if the cities surrounding Knoxville have it. Oak ridge for example.
They had actually turned it on at 2am Monday morning... I thought it was a test but it stayed on!! We weren't supposed to get it for a few more days too!
Best speed test I had was 20mbs down and 9mbs up.

They provided a list of who they said would get LTE by the end of 2011. Memphis was on the list. When I bought my Bolt, the salesman in Cordova told me that we'd have LTE by the end of June. LIAR! lol
I can guarantee however that you will get it when you get it. 100% sure of that.
