Great news! So Knoxville and Nashville both have 4g. Now if they could just get everything in between it would take care of me.

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.

Yeah, I'm usually up around 5am weekdays and when I saw it on Monday I figured they were just testing, but it's been on ever since. Sweet nectar, sweet unlimited nectar.

I called Verizon today to see if they could tell me when my area would get 4g. All the lady could tell me is "you aren't on the list yet but I can't put you on our email list. "

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.

They should update their website. I just looked up coverage there to check a nearby city and their site doesn't show 4G in Knoxville yet.

switch your phone to LTE mode. mine rarely/never switches to LTE anywhere in my city, but when I set it to LTE mode it switches right away as long as there is coverage.
Weird weird! They must have only been testing a small area. Traveled (on Sunday) about 3 miles from my home and the 4G LTE connection was gone. By 10PM that same day it was gone altogether.

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.

Both phones are bone stock unrooted with the latest greatest OTA.
I spoke to a rep yesterday saying that Syracuse will be online with Verizon LTE by the end of June - about ten minutes ago I had 4G LTE signal with approx 10 Mb/s DL and 5 Mb/s UL. It lasted for about 5 minutes and then went back to 3G. My guess is they are going through final base-station/radio testing before turning it on.
I've been posting for the past 3 months about 4G being on once in a while in Syracuse.
Even had it in Watertown last week for 15 minutes.
Life is good, and is getting better!

I work near Downtown Syracuse and my 4G icon appeared again this morning, this time for a bit longer than it did earlier in the month. My business rep. did tell me LTE will be here by the end of summer (this was back in like February)... whenever I see "4G" pop up on my phone, I email her as she has a TBolt. She doesn't confirm anything, but does say that if I am getting LTE connectivity, that is a good sign that they are testing and the activation is coming soon!
I wonder how far out of Syracuse it will reach. I have family in Pennellville and Central Square.

So how long did your area (City/Town) take to fully turn on your 4G? Reason I'm asking is because today all day I had 4G which I was shocked to see because I'm not in a 4G area. Obviously this means that they are testing it I would assume?
