Just got 4g turned up, I'm in Milwaukee WI!!! I'm in West Allis, a suburb of Milwaukee, about 10 minutes west of downtown.
It's faster by speed test than my cablemodem. how f'd is that?!

Ha ha yeah. It is. So far the only speeds that match it is Fios (and docsis3.0 speeds). but they don't have that everywhere.
I guess I should clarify.. I dont give a crap about anything faster than 5mb down...it's upload speeds that matter to me.
Cablemodem speeds. Road Runner btw
T-bolt.
This is GREAT NEWS!! I live in Racine ...just south of Milwaukee wonder if this means we will have it soon?! I work in Zion ,Ill and have 4g there. Anyways ...thanks for the heads up!
Ohh wow. That upload is slower than my dsl.
I wish ISPs would start focusing on upload speeds too. With all this talk about cloud computing and certain ISPs providing like 50GB of online backup space, you'd think we can get a decent upload speed.

That's great news! Unfortunately I'm not seeming to pick up a signal and I'm in Brown Deer (northern milwaukee county). I will have to try when I go closer to downtown tonight. Are you getting a consistent signal or was it only for a bit? I don't believe anything has been announced yet.

All of downtown, the third ward, and the airport have had it for at least the few weeks that I've had my TB. I dropped my wife off at the airport a couple weeks ago at around 5am. Pulled 28.8, 25, and 22 DL on separate tries. I picked her up in the afternoon the next day and got 10-15 DL. Very impresssed.

There has been 4g in Milwaukee since the tb was released. It has been my experience that it goes west about to 35th and south to around College. I do occasionally get 4g going more south and west but it seems to be strongest in dt Milwaukee.
i'm in Waukesha. Considering buying this phone.

Cool, I live in Racine too!
4G is trash...at least for me...I live in Greenfield and even in strong areas of 4G coverage I cannot complete a single large download...tried different handsets, SIM cards, ROMs and radios...it's the towers.
Not impressed and wish I kept my Droid Incredible
Congrats I noticed 4G working in Green Bay about a month ago, if I member correctly I was drinking a lil so got more excited than I should of

Speaking of LTE in Milwaukee...
Either a lot more are running on the LTE now in Milwaukee, or the radio's in our LTE phones are being capped. I've been noticing some pretty bad performance some days. Even with full strength, only pulling 2mbps down yet 13mbps up..
I sure hope 4G spreads all the way between Green Bay and Milwaukee someday - I am about halfway between the two cities and really wanting that extra G! Lol

I'm kinda SOL when it comes to ANY stable data at house.
I live in semi-rural area of Racine, and my house is almost a Verizon dead spot.
I can sit in my house and only get 1-3 bars of 3G, and maybe 1.2mbps down at MAX.
However I can walk to either edge of my 8 acre property and pick up the LTE, and get 1-2 bars and pull 5-10mbps.
Same here but I live in the city of Milwaukee

Per engadget T-Mobile flipped on 42mbps in 55 markets today. Have you noticed any speed increases? I'm not sure if the gs4g is rated at 21 or 42mbps...
Edit : just looked it up and gs4g is only hspa+ 21mbps

sweet. I would think we should see some improved speeds even though its only a 21mbps device. In theory. Of course real world usage ive never got over 11mbps.
it would be nice to get up closer to 21mbps with the higher tier hspa+ being turned on

Sent from my SGH-T959V using XDA Premium App
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.

thats a can that doesnt need to be opened. there is no "TRUE" 4G tech thats readily deployed right now.
I dont care what they call it. They can call its it worms for all i care lol. 4-10mbps is fast enough for any mobile application.
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.
Wow it's a Bay Area party in here! I live and work in Oakland but go to SF State and will check my MT4G speeds today when I leave the house.
Have been looking at buying a SGS4G because HTC's exchange lottery has me burned out, but don't want to pull the trigger until you guys have an AOSP rom to flash.

the speeds at state are random - as backed up by Tmo's own coverage map. you're much better off testing it at Stones Town.
If I were you, I would keep the MT4G. I regret exchanging mine for the SGS4G.
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.
-been w/ tmo for 7 or so years now, right after they changed over from voice stream. I dont plan on leaving, just wondering where our love is here in Chicago and surrounding areas.

Great news for the people of Colorado Springs, Colorado. 4G has hit different parts of the city. I was driving up at have hit 4G twice. 4G is still spotty and will be released to the entire city, with an official release by the end of the year. You can find 4G coverage in parts of Briargate (locals will know this area) and parts of downtown. I only had 4G for a matter of minutes, but after being with Denver and messing around with 4G I am very excited to have LTE in the area.
I'm jealous. Where I work in Northglenn (about 6 miles north of downtown Denver) I had 4G for a good two weeks but it has disappeared.

That's what I'm hoping too.....its just around the corner and I am surprised Colo Spgs, is getting it so early.
I was under the impression that VZ stated in an official release (prior to the TB release) that COS was getting 4G in the first half of 2011. So I'm not so sure we can call this early...but I'm excited to see it fully implemented.
From what I hear from a buddy, Ft Collins is just about to be turned on full time, hopefully both cities get flipped on together. Wish Verizon wasn't so "hush hush" about proposed dates.

Verizon's 4G LTE network is now up and running ahead of schedule! It was supposed to be up at the end of the month but here I get to utilize my TB to its fullest potential half a month early! So far surfing the web is amazing, Hulu and Netflix stream flawlessly and downloads fly. Now to see how bad my battery life ends up...

Grats! Now we need it in more parts of Indy (i.e. the parts I'm in, not downtown and by the airport).
Congrats! still cant get any sign of it in Noblesville.
Likewise none here either in noblesville
Seen it from indy to westfield Monday, soon as I got home no more 4G
Can't wait for this ****
Seems most of Indy is supposed to be covered now. I get a 4g signal about one block from my house but, sadly, no 4g at my house. Still, far better rollout than AT&T's "4g" service. The suburbs are probably next on the list.
the Verizon press release says 4G within the 465 loop
I had it to westfield a couple days before it was "officially" released, but now I don't!!
my guess is they attenuated the signal strength back some to limit signal loss in the burbs, who really knows, except them
http://news.vzw.com/news/2011/05/pr2011-05-23a.html
BINGO!!
got 4G LTE in westfield right now!!!
so excited, hope its at work too, in noblesville
Man, you guys are lucky. I don't even know when Indy is getting Wimax, let alone Danville and Avon.

3vo. That is all that needs be said.
Can we start one? Just info people are hearing about LTE coming to their area.
I'll start by adding that I am in a HSPA+ area Danbury, Connecticut. I get anywhere from 3-6 mbps download speed. The mayor on his twitter account said AT&T is testing in the area, and that it will be here sooner rather than later. When I went to FCC Spectrum Dashboard, I found that AT&T has two 700Mhz towers registered for Bridgeport, Danbury, and Stamford.

I'd love to see if AT&T has a planned roadmap or something. All I know is full rollout by 2013. Verizon got LTE into my area (Fresno, CA) in the middle of June. That's about 3-4 months after the Thunderbolt came out. If AT&T followed that, it would be coming soon, but I've heard nothing.
I get 3 to 5 with 3g in Melissa, TX. 16mbps with HSPA+. When I go into the city it's 26 to 56mbps.
We are not just north of Dallas. We are Melissa, TX.

I have never gotten more than 16-18 in Los Angeles or Phoenix.
Living in Minnesota, a Non LTE area for AT&T I hadn't experienced it on my Skyrocket . However I had to travel to KC for the weekend and put the SR through a string of tests. All I can say is HOLY HELL, LTE is amazing. Here is a screen capture of many of the tests.
I have isolated one of the tests, if accurate is unbelievable. I tested in Northern KC to Downtown to out in the suburbs like Independence.
Any info on lte in central Arkansas? More specifically Conway? I've heard rumors..

I live in Corning, about 5 hours west of NYC. Get ATT '4G' HSPA... not HSPA+.
Get about 5MB down and 1.2MB up on a good day.. normally it's like 2.5 down and 1 up though. Can't wait until I get to go to NYC and test out the LTE there.
The fact that ATT has just started rolling out LTE means that when you DO get a signal, it will be extremely nice as not a lot of people are utilizing it yet. Also, you'll get LTE in areas that don't officially have it yet (as they're in the middle of rolling out the network) which is always a nice surprise.
I was in Queens few weeks ago and got to try LTE. I got between 23-30Mbps with 3 bars. Can't wait for Connecticut to get LTE.
I was at my moms work, just waiting for her to get her check, and randomly did a speedtest.
64 down, 23 up.
I'll post a SS later, since I'm at school using the computers, and don't have my cable on me.
I'm in Houston and average around 18 Mbps down/10Mbps up. Highest I've seen here was 35 Mbps at the airport. LTE coverage is pretty good all over the metropolitan area, and HSPA+ speeds are usually around 8 Mbps where LTE isn't available.
