I'm on simple mobile 50 dollar plan! As u may know ,simple mobile runs on T-Mobile network, so you would get the same speed and reception as T-Mobile. I'm in new York and an getting up to 15mbps on simple mobile...YEAH that's right..

After 2 gigs it they do throttle unfortunately... but I've never heard of the account shut downs. If you use Wi-Fi ad much as I do send make sure you check the 848484 info via text messages you should be fine. This is coming from a heavy data user. Minor adjustments made and its well worth it

Just curious. They have nice plans ($40 everything unlimited 3G speeds and $60 everything unlimited 4G speeds) which run on T-Mobiles network.
Any you guys have it here with the Sensation? If so, how is the experience? Same as with T-Mobile? Better? Worse?
I'm getting it within the next few weeks my mom has it and it's fast here in Chicago and it saves alot of money.

Yeah. The way I see it, I'm going to be paying $40 for the same service (Don't really need the "4G") and will be saving a whole **** load of money a month. Gonna pay both of my ETFs and see how it goes
Too good to be true...
Looks like SimpleMobile's "3G" speed is really 2G / Edge.

If anyone does decide to go with Simple, I suggest you buy your sim on Ebay for a .99 vs. the 12.99 on their website....
Their 4G speeds are really TMo's 3G speed.
Damn marketing / false advertising.
Ur better of getting in a prepaid from tmobile 70 bucks for everything unlimited and 5 gb of 4g speeds (3.5g). Simple only gives u 1 gb of 4g speed and then it gets capped

I'm not in an lte market right now, I'm on hspa/umts only. No 3.5g. 3g only. I have used 2.7gb of UNLIMITED DATA and I got flagged. Wtf is that?
HTC = Hate The Consumer
they throttle the top 5% on unlimited plans. spoke to a rep yesterday. although your usage to me does not look like a 5%'er
My average usage is 2.5 to 3.8 according to the rep I spoke to. He is also curious why I got flagged. He said he will look into it and call me back.

there are two threads here about this... one is titled throttled and the other is something along the same lines.. check them out for tips and gripes

Sprint may not have very good coverage but I can use all the unlimited unthrottled data I want . Not trying to rub it in (cause I used yo have AT&T and got throttled and capped) just saying it was a good switch for me.

The sad part is that even though sprint does not throttle their speeds Max at at about what we are throttled to lol. I left them in august and have not looked back.

Really??? I get a good 1-1.5 mbps continuous on 3g on my phone and computer when I use the hotspot. I font have 4g in my area to test that though. But when sprint launches their 4g lte in 2013 I will have it hopefully still unlimited too.
Sent from my MB855 using XDA App
Yeah I was super dissapointed they did wimax and not lte.
Realize our 3g speeds are typically 1.5-5 , I have hit 12
When one gets throttled and can accomplish the apn trick...they are hitting 1.5-5 ...throttled
In my case here in Dallas i would get about 400kbps dload in most areas, which is why I left Sprint. Its different from area to area tho.

Yep had sprint for a few years and recently switched to At&t, the switch was night and day. I Showed my phone to a friend that still has sprint and he was amazed at how fast thing were loading especially YouTube videos and I wasn't even on At&t lte. I don't have an unlimited plan so I don't get throttled and average 1.3gbs per month so I'm good.

AT&T hates the NW so no LTE here so I'm getting 3-8mb down depending on the time of day and 1mb-3mb up on HSPA
Not expecting LTE any time soon here either. Verizon and US Cellular (of all companies) have deployed their LTE locally, but we're not even on the map for having LTE turned on this year. Not terribly surprising I guess. I'm more surprised that Verizon has already had their LTE up here since the beginning of December.

When you had problems with the Speedtest app saying it was having network issues did the data stop working for your phone all together until you restarted your phone?
I discovered i have this problem often when trying to use the Speedtest app to test my LTE connection in San Antonio.
I started a thread a couple days ago here

Here is my speed...very strange situation as well. No LTE coverage on the att map where I am, but at the very top of a hill where I park for work I get coverage. Very good reception too but only within a 30 ft or so radius. As far as I know the closest LTE area to me is NY and I'm in CT...strange.

How does simple mobile's $40 unlimited plan work with the One S?Is any body in here on that plan? If so what is the data speed? I am planning on using the One S on TMO's $30 5gb data plan but the 100 mins is too short. If the SM plan has 3g unlimitted I'd rather sacrifice 4g speed for unlimitted mins and 3g. Thanks.
Sent from my EVO 4G using XDA
I wouldn't go simple mobile because I had the $40 plan back on my amaze and the 3G speeds are a joke. Also if you want to use the internet you must program the APN settings which is annoying and sometimes doesnt work anyways along with MMS.

But it is on simple mobile's approved phone list,it even states that it will work on SM's 4g.

Does Simple use T-Mobile's 3G bands? If not, the best you'll get is EDGE.
True, but they cap you at around 1GB of data use on 4G and 3G speeds are the same as EDGE speeds. I never had a problem with simple mobile till last month when they completely cut off my data for going over 1.5 GB on my Nexus Prime. I was on their $60 plan. There are also videos on YouTube that show simple mobiles 3G speeds and why you shouldn't go with them.

I was thinking about switching to simple mobile I know the 3g speeds are terrible but I'm on wifi 90% of the day so it really would affect me there is wifi at my college wifi at my work and wifi at my house lol so I'm ok with edge speeds

I would much rather stay on tmo with the $30 5gb if all I use is internet and less that 100 mins a month..
I'm debating switching from AT&T to TMo solely because I hate monitoring my data to stay below 2GB and I know that TMo wouldn't charge me for going over the cap and I just get throttled.
My cousin has T Mobile but he claims that he's never been throttled even if he goes over the cap. But I've read that others also on TMo get throttle as soon as they got their caps.
Is it random or by chance whether people get throttled or not?
