Tmobile doubled the 4g speeds in 56 cities today. info via http://www.androidcentral.com/t-mobile-doubles-4g-speed-56-cities

Personally, Im in one of the cities, Richmond, VA, and I ran a speedtest and its still the same as when i first got the sensation, sooooo...... idk. If youre in one of the cities that got 4g speeds increased run a speedtest and post your results, just for the hell of it
Richmond, Va
speedtest.net app
ping 78ms
down 3.48 mbps
up 1.34 mbps
I'm in one of the cities and so far it's a touch slower. I get an ok signal here at work though so I'm going to test more around town. I usually average 6-7 Mbps with max 10 Mbps seen. That's pretty good so I don't really expect a huge change.
I thought you need a 42 Mbps capable phone to see the new speeds. I think currently only T-Mobile's Rocket 3.0 USB stick can go there.
but the sensation still supposed to be able to get 14 mbps down, so i would think it would still be faster than what i was seeing b4, just a thought
I personally think the speed increase is BS.
Well,i never seen anything above 3Mbps on my Sensation and i'm in NYC (Queens) ,so as they say talk is cheap
Doesn't really affect us I think. Our devices are only capable of 14.4 Mbps down.
My city will never get 4G
Speed increase is total bs. Still haven't hit 10mbps on my sensation. Houston tx

You gotta keep in mind those are theoretical speeds. LTE is supposed to be capable of reaching 100 Mbps down, but most people average around 15-20 Mbps down.
They advertise best possible connection. Like home internet, Comcast promises me 20's but im around 15's. I bet if you had a capable device and were standing on top of a wireless tower you would be able to get the bandwith their promising.
Its wireless, signal depends on distance, buildings, planes, birds...how fat your hands are.. Im close to rockford, IL and I didnt notice anything but no service for about 2 hrs last night. Speed is still same as before 8mbs down 1.8mbs up.
For a phone Im not complaining. **** I'm lucky to have service in my town this is the city I live in http://www.dailyherald.com/article/20110627/news/706279805/

Guys, unless your area just received 4G, your not going to see any benefit to T-Mobile rolling out HSPA+ 42Mbps. The HTC Sensation is only capable of 14.4Mbps download speed max.
Although, T-Mobile did mistakenly say the Sensation would do 42Mbps...

I wish. 8Mbs is the max i've hit. On average my speeds aren't that much faster than they were with my Vibrant (non 4G). Average speeds are in the 2-3Mbs range. Definitely nothing to write home about.
I'm already aware of what you all are saying. I complain because I used to be able to hit 6mbps before, and now I never go above 4 in the same area; matter of fact, make that any area...
Edit: the above poster has my exact story..fastest speeds I had was the 6-7 mbps on the vibrant which wasn't even rated at 14.4 mbps, and that was a whole year ago

So that being said. What 4G speeds are guys pulling off? (Prefer pictures of your speed test text is also fine)

Trust me, it's WAY better than Sprint's WiMax. I came from an Evo and I know that for sure.
Also just FYI, the overall signal quality in LA isn't as good as in San Diego, but not to the level where you will have problems.
I get about 16 down and 4 up. I live outside of Baltimore and seem to have 4g everywhere I travel. Washington DC coverage seems to be hit or miss though. The speeds of this device are incredible.

I've done speedtests all over L.A. and the slowest I've gotten is here at work in a brick building next to a hill with bad reception for all carriers, and I get about 8/1 here. Everywhere else I get much better speeds, sometimes 20+/10+.
Well I happen to work next to the Airport in Salt Lake City, Utah so I only get 4G coverage at work. I take that back, I think the coverage is there because I work next to one of Verizon's largest call centers. Regardless my speeds are lopsided.
I'm getting about 12.5MB/second Down and 26.5MB/second Up
Most of you guys have BS scores. You cant use speedtests app... even the 2.0 version is crap.
www.speakeasy.net - End of story. Dont post BS download and upload speeds without going there first.
That being said Im getting around 18 down, 3-4 up in the Lehigh Valley PA.
Interesting story from Wired.
Kind of sad how slow the rest are compared to Verizon...

Verizon has 700mhz for the spectrum their LTE network is on. Sprint's WiMax is on 2500mhz, the highest of all for cell phone coverage, thus is absolutely sucks indoors worse than anything else. Sprint's 3G is on 1900 which is also sucky and worse than tmobile's 1700 for 3G which AT&T is looking to buy to put their LTE on. Verizon by far is going to have the best 4g coverage for a multitude of reasons.

The speedtest app has been working correctly for me for awhile now. I just pulled identical speeds using the speedtest app, speedtest.net, and speakeasy.net. The Speakeasy test is also powered by Ookla, the same people who make the speedtest app and the speedtest.net website, they're all the same.

As more 4g devices are sold our connection will get slower and slower you can't really expect 20mb down can you? I mean Sprint network only gets 3 down on 4g ours won't get that slow but just a comparison.

5 up and 3 down here also, it has slowed way down for me!!!
Had that problem the other day. I was getting mid/low 2s. 5 isn't that bad. It's advertised speeds are 5-12.
EDIT: Just checking my speeds now, getting low 2s again.
that should be around what it should be once lte gets more and more used right?

I'm getting no issues on mine. Speeds are still the way they were. ~25down ~6-7up (in mbps)
of course that could change as more people jump in to the lte bandwagon.
In Cincinnati I was pulling 30ish down the first week, and now I am seeing consistant 11 everywhere, and in some places 15-20. Depends on where I am. Same signal strengh where I am at home and at work, but at work I do sit around 20 down, and at home 11ish.
Pretty happy with LTE over all, compaired to the WiMax I had that I couldn't even get in my house. lol.
23.09 Mbps down and 15.75 Mbps down here, it stays about the same all day, give or take 5 Mbps.
thats on CM7 though, im sure on stock it would be higher.
It's been the same for me and better too. At work my speed has been consistently ~17-20Mbps. The difference in the last week has been at my house, where I've gone from ~5-9Mpbps to ~15-20Mbps, rivaling my home FIOS connection. WOOT!
As long as VZW continue to expand their 4G network, it should be relatively easy for everyone to break 10Mbps
I haven't seen any noticeable difference here in the Metro-Detroit area. Last speedtest i ran was around 13-15 up and 4-5 down.
One thing to remember is that the speedtest.net app doesn't give consistent or accurate readings. If you go to speedtest.net from your phone's browser, you'll see much more accurate results.
Just ran a speedtest and got 30 down and 7 up. No difference at all for me. I'm in Baltimore, MD.

i dont live in philly but ive never tested above high 7's down/up. fastest has been 7.8ish down and the same up. normally it's between 5 and 6. i've been to and thru the city a lot since getting the TB @ launch, including testing with 4 bars on a boat under the Commodore Barry Bridge, elsewhere on the Delaware river, and a few miles up the Schuylkill with no obstructions and the fastest was still mid-7s. Also have done tests in Olde City, near the sports complex, and in centre city. nothing above 8.
across the river in NJ along the 295 corridor i get the same 4G speeds as philly. i've never tested faster than 8mbps down anywhere so far, which includes all of philly, northern DE near Wilmington, and the baltimore-DC corridor and greater DC.
running stock non-rooted with speedtest.net app. via wifi @ home i hit my advertised speeds of 16-20 down
maybe our 4G just sucks...didnt they even do initial LTE testing here? verizon is extremely present and active in phila. since it's basically a home city for them.

Actually I'd say your 4G rocks and is the best management of Verizon's network. They advertise 5-12Mbps down and 2-5Mbps up, and you are in the middle to low end of that guaranteed speed down and easily in the middle to top of the upload. That means Verizon is paying for the right amount of bandwidth to all of their towers in the area that you have been on, without overpaying to have way more than is needed like the people getting 16Mbps all the time. That 16Mbps means they have like 2x more bandwidth than needed, so they are paying the ISP's twice what they really need to and are thus making less money, from a business standpoint your region is the perfectly managed area. If your average speeds drop below 5Mbps be sure to call in and complain though.
Meh this LTE network is finckey. I probably should have specified that im in more of the suburbs in Radnor near Villanova

my speeds kind of doubled. I'm in the east bay (Fremont, near San Jose) i only had 1 bar but managed a steady 3.4mbps down and 1.2mbps up. I usually get half of that with 1 bar of 4g reception. I did not test while I was out and about today, but Fremont was not one of the 55 cities.
i need to speedtest once i get back into the city (SF), but unfortunately in big cities the data demand is consistently high, so a boost may not be noticed, but I'm sure it'll increase data speed stability.
Looking good so far tho!

I'm not from LA, Just visiting. I'm getting 2 to 6Mbps here. I guess you could say that's not bad, but the answer to the OP question is I haven't noticed any increase in the last couple days. From what I have experienced, TMO is advertising "AMERICA's LARGEST 4G NETWORK" When actually its truly only a 3.5G network in selected markets neglecting the majority of the rest of the country and leaving us with an unreliable 2G network. At least some of the other providers can say they have a large portion of the country covered by at least 3G. TMO does have a good looking woman spouting their lies for them though.

And last thing, all of these are theoretical speeds are in perfect conditions, no loads, etc. I dont think any of these supposed breakneck speeds VZ, ATT, Tmob, or Sprint advertises will actually happen in real world use. 42mbps? Yeah right TMob!! Ive never seen over 11mbps on TM or Sprint 4G.

I am seeing about a 3-5mbps increase in tulsa. I average around 15 and before was around 12.
Funny thing is, started testing yesterday... They must have forgotten to do Chicago, even though it is listed. I'm right down town in the loop, at least my speeds are consistant... 1.09 down and 0.25 up. If anything, I am seeing a major speed de-crease. Hell, In naperville, IL, I have speed tests clocked from several months a go, 1 at 7.1 Mbps down and 3.4 Mbps up. Currently in naperville, tests range from 1 Mbps down all the way up to 7.3 Mbps down.
Chicago, no go. I sent tmo a tweet asking what the deal was and if they accidently included chicago in the list or if it is broken already... 24 hours later, they ignored the comment...probably because they know its true.
I love tmo...but seriously, whats with all they hype if theyre not gonna stand by it, everywhere mentioned in the press release.

9/10 down is the max I normally get. Compared to Verizon lte (28 down) it feels like it's the tortoise vs the hare. Then again, I don't want to pay $120+ for 10 gigs (streaming videos/music and downloading apps makes the 4g speeds go away :'c )

mine is not too bad. this is my average speed.
there are time it hits 10megs + but those are rarer.
definitely not LTE speeds but fast enough to do whatever.
it's as fast as most home networks, to put into perspective.
I came from sprint 3g, which in my area is about the same as tmobile's edge speeds. Im more than happy with the 4-8 down that i get on a regular basis. What am i going to be doing on my phone that needs anything faster? Youtube HD runs smooth, netflix runs fine, apps download in seconds, and my bill is half the price of verizon.
This is my best test result ever, but I'm content with it.

9/10 down is the max I normally get. Compared to Verizon lte (28 down) it feels like it's the tortoise vs the hare. Then again, I don't want to pay $120+ for 10 gigs (streaming videos/music and downloading apps makes the 4g speeds go away :'c )

i dont care if TMOUS HSDPA was only 1mbps... the fact that im paying $5/mo for tzones with unlimited bandwidth means i will never be switching... luckily i usually get 5-8mbps here in dallas which is fast than my land line cable connection

mine is not too bad. this is my average speed.
there are time it hits 10megs + but those are rarer.
definitely not LTE speeds but fast enough to do whatever.
it's as fast as most home networks, to put into perspective.

That's pretty fast man...some home services don't even get those speeds

Downtown St Louis seems to run
1-3 mbps down daytime indoors (best test outside 5 mbps). I have Android Revolution HD and the 10.56 radio with matching RIL that is said in other threads to be best for TMobile.
What ROM, radio and RIL do you all have, especially those getting 8 mbps?
I've gotten around 9.25Mbps dl and 1.75Mbps up.... That's in Jersey City, NJ if you care.
Wasn't me!! I didn't do it!

Well I am running ARHD 4.1.13
Radio: 11.19.3504.29_2

I have seen it posted in other threads that the best radio for TMobile USA is 10.56.9035.00U_10.14.9035.01 with its matching RIL HTC-RIL 2.2.0169HMQ. I am still on Gingerbread (Android Revolution HD 3.6.11).
Does this match you guys' experience as you report those speeds over 8 mbps?

Wow you guys are lucky...
I'm running ARHD 6.0.3 and have been averaging 350-600K depending on what time of day. Cracked 1000K last night, but that was the 1st time that happened.
In the south-eastern Michigan area...Sprint is particularly terrible here...no 4g...so my friends Evo gets <200k, which is truly pathetic.
Noticed when I was running GB Roms and toggled ciphering, results were better, but cant do that with ICS Roms...(correct me if I'm wrong)
Tested inside a building. Never really hit past 8mps download though.
4.5mbps down in 4g in okc. While in small town outside of okc on hspa+ I get 8-10mbps down. What a joke ATT. Y'all are really sucking. Going to be looking at Verizon soon.

depending on your time and location; I've beaten my co-workers' iphone 4 and two iphone4s on speedtest.net's app. but you have to factor the load of the network stop putting blame.
two iphone4's on AT&T , one iphone4 on VZW. only the vzw iphone4 was matching closest to speeds like mine.
4g or 4g lte? Big Big difference if its one or the other. I average 3-5 megs down on 4g here in Conway. I've peaked at over 10 megs down a few times though. We haven't gotten lte upgrades on our towers yet but when we do I expect I'll see 20+ megs down at least!
In Philly,
depending on the day, the time, the location, whether I wear my socks, etc...I can get between 1 and 9 mbps down, 1-3 up.
In South Jersey at my folks (who live in the woods), I can get 4-5 down. 3 miles away out on the marsh, I get over 10.
LTE-long term evolution. Suuucks....actually its ATT.

I average 25 mbps down in dallas on ATT LTE. When i drove through OKC i was getting about 15 down. Having used Verizon, i hate their coverage and their service. If you dont get their LTE, their 3g is 1mbps tops. I dont understand why everyone bashes on ATT.
Edit:
And Verizon's LTE is about 12 average on a good day. Peak of 18, low of 5.
how can anyone complain about 4.5 mbps down on their phone ???
goodluck with verizon, if you dont get an LTE signal your download speed is going to be less than 1mbps.

so was I . I would get 1.8mbps at my house (on 3g) on sprint but anywhere else i was that was not 4G i would get 15kpbs to about 600kpbs. It was painful.
On the 4g network (hspa+) i usually get anywhere from 3 to 9 mb/s, but when i hit the 4g lte area in NYC i see speeds anywhere from 20 mb/s on the outskirts of the city to 50+ mb/s in the center of the city, also depends on how much load is on the network. If your on a custom gingerbread rom try using the V6 supercharger 3g booster script with script manager and try playing around with the options, i usually choose the known maxed out values for the best possible speeds
I was crawling on sprint 4g and I had a gsII epic touch 4g

That's sad.
Important thing with Att is reliability. Verizon lte was out several times in a short period of time. And you get they're crap version of 3g as a backup if that. I'm assuming all the cdma iPhone users are clogging it.
AT&T gets hspa+ as a backup if anything happens to lte, although there aren't any reports of outages with it as of yet. Enhanced 3g is more than enough for me, i use my phone to browse the internet, not tether or stream.
