Now that we have had our phones for a few weeks is anyone else out there amazed at how good the coverage is on the new 4G network. Coming from Sprint with the EVO I am just amazed. Been two 3 different 4G cities in 3 states and have been impressed everywhere. Anyone else?

man i wish i were in a 4g area. sadly, i only have 3g here in northwest indiana but chicago has 4g so i am hoping that 4g will be here within the end of the year.
how does 3g compare to 4g for you?

I travel between NY and Philadelphia for work on weekly bases and basically have nonstop 4G coverage.
the entire east coast of FL is blanketed with 4g and working there way west
unfortunately my house is in the grey area
its honestly the biggest cell phone revolution since 3G lol... its really incredible.
I had 4G for about 10 minutes yesterday morning, then they turned it off. I was pissed. Guess they were testing. I hope that means they're going to light it up soon.
I was only pulling about 4.5-6.5 Mb/s.

It will be that way for 4 weeks or so, thats what they did here. They will up the speeds also after they load test etc. After that period of time they just leave it on

Lol I live in the heart of Boston downtown to be precise and there's 4g everywhere here. Am very impress but I feel like when ever my phone drops 4g for whatever reason 3g seems so slow now. But some time I have to force the phone to 3g just conserve battery that's a damn shame Verizon because 4g is amazing. But Verizon still have to optimize the yell out of it beside the battery drain some time it hangs before starting to download data or load a page, got embarrass trying to show off to a friend. But no problem with 4g here wow you guys without 4g are definitely missing out but at least you got the unlimited 4g plan before it they change it.

Same situation here.... :/
,
I am right in the city of chicago but outside downtown. I had sprint and the evo and their 4g was seriously terrible. Could only get a poor connection when the phone was balanced on the window ledge with the window open. The 4g would not go through the newer vinyl windows. I also could never get a signal inside most other buildings. I could literally only get it reliably when I was totally out in the open (even outside my house at ground level I could not get a connection). So, wimax on sprint's frequency sucks. I paid my $140 etf and switched to verizon where I pay $10 less per month f*** sprint.
verizon LTE 4g coverage is just amazing. Im on it right now in an interior room of my apartment nowhere near a window. I get 4g everywhere I go, I am never nervous about the connection dropping. This is how a network should function. Sprint is just awful and i will never use them again in my life. I would seriously get a land line before I got sprint wireless again. Verizon is so impressive to me.

if you give me your thunderbolt ill give you $150 and one used htc evo. it also has 4g which is awesome if you're near a tower and out in an open field nowhere near a building. also the 3g is worse than a 56k modem but its okay the network is gonna be good some day.

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!

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.

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.
