I am not sure if that's correct. Im in an area with full LTE bars and still having this issue. even my iphone 4 was better at talking and surfing.

I've heard that att phones go to 3g when you talk and surf. Then back to lte after you hang up.

They advertise that but for a couple years they've been throttling talk and surf. It goes to edge speeds, sometimes even slower. There were articles a year or two ago about this.

That has nothing to do with the discussion here. The throttling you're talking about is with the people who still have unlimited data plans who go over 2 or 3 GB's in the month's span. Then they will have their data speeds throttled.
The issue at hand here is when someone is having a conversation on the phone, on speaker for instance, and is trying to use the internet browser at the same time.

On AT&T you should be able to talk and surf at the same time. LTE is not yet capable of talk and data at the same time so if you have an LTE connection and use data, your data connection will be dropped to 3G or lower. The problem might exist because not all phones or AT&T towers handle the data switches efficiently. The phone has to register with the next available tower during the data / voice event and this doesn't always go smoothly. Last I heard, AT&T was testing LTE with voice technology, but I haven't heard anything in a while about that.
I have also heard that people with improper APNs might have trouble talking and surfing at the same time.

So even if the device is on LTE when you talk on the phone it switches to a 3g connection? Can you elaborate

Extremely tired of slow data

Don't get me wrong, sprints unlimited data is awesome, but when I have to struggle loading simple 4 minute videos online, I get annoyed. Even with full bars the service is garbage. Sprint obviously doesn't "owe" me anything, but some tower upgrades would sure benefit their business.

Sprints philosophy goes like this, "Use your wifi for faster speeds and don't expect **** from our network" They call themselves the now network, but its more like the now or later network.
How much money are they yanking a year? Atleast 1500 out of my pocket alone every year. Greedy Aholes.

I agree I'm in Northern Va and it's annoying how in areas like chantilly I almost get 2Mbps but asst home I range from .5 to 1Mbps. I just want a stay 1Mbps wherever I go nothing more and nothing less and I'll be satisfied! Thank God I'm in the DMV area because LTE will definitely come here. And yesterday by Potomac Mills it was so bad that my texts weren't going out! It said they didn't go through but people would receive them late! And it said my signal was -65 dBm!

Richmond, VA has 4G.
Sent from my Cyanogen Epic.
The $10 is for "premium data". When I tried to discuss the reason for it with a rep around the time I got my phone she said it was 'because of the amount of data I would be expected to use.' That I was paying for the 'Ease and likelyhood of uploading photos and videos through the phone network.' And 'because of the availability of 4G speeds in select areas.'
Every phone I've ever had has been a smart phone.
I use no more data on average with my Epic than I did with my last two Windows Mobile phones before it. So, I am paying more to do things I (more or less) could already do.
At home I have an AIRAVE. Though I live ~1mile from the nearest tower I typically have no signal or drop calls like crazy without it. I also use WIFI for my internet when at home. Outside of my neighborhood I have no complaints though.
4G is not available within 3hours drive of me. I have used it for a total of 10min since I got my epic at launch. That was at an airport while on a layover.
I cant complain much about my speed... my girlfriend is stuck at 1x because 3G flat out isnt available to her anywhere in my city. But I do pay $30/month more.

it is for 4g. because the evo 4g was the first phone to have the $10 data fee. they change it to a premium data fee when people in non 4g areas started complaining about the fee.

Premium Data (required for this device) - $10.00
We require this add-on for phones made to deliver a superior wireless experience including Web, email, video and social networking.
Additional details:
The Premium Data add-on charge is required for smartphones.
Sprint smartphones currently are: Android, BlackBerry, Palm, Instinct and Windows Mobile phones.
On average, smartphone users use 10 times more data than customers with basic or feature phones. With this charge, Smartphone customers will continue to receive unlimited data and experience Sprint’s simplified services and rates, being able to take advantage of a rich data experience while on the Sprint network.
If you would like an unlimited data plan, for a lower rate, and avoid this charge, you may want to check out some of our feature phones which do not require the $10 Premium Data add-on charge.
Yeah, funny my Palm Pre didn't require that fee and they didn't start the fee until 4G phones came and then only applied to 4G phones until the complaints of no 4G came in...I'm just sayin'.....lol.

Ditto. They can cut you off if you go over a certain amount (most people say around 2-3GB a month), but so far I've used around that amount and been good. I know some people who have gone way over (5GB) and been fine too. If you use them, don't fill in the proxy fields in the APN, just the MMS proxy stuff. If you stream constantly, this service is not for you. However for anything else it's great. And you get real AT&T speeds (I've personally gotten up to 5 Mbps in some areas).

Yup ive used 2gb and been fine, and have also heard of people going over 5gb and been fine. But id say 2gb would be the safe zone, which is probably plenty for most. Just use wifi whenever you can
my sim will be coming soon and since im gonna be using a pre 2 i dont think data limits are anything to worry about. i just want stable reliable signal where I can text and get calls reliably from a certain area sprint doesnt cut it but ATT does. my question is i am a part time promotor for clubs so i send out a crap load of texts (on sprint i saw my amount and it was around 22000 lol)
if i decide to make this my main phone i will be consuming that much.....phone calls arent an issue i mainly talk only to my gf for long periods of time at night lol
will i be kicked off for this usage?
Hey if I only wanted 5-10 of data a month with no minutes or texts is that possible?and if it is how much would I be looking at for just 5 Gb of 4G data a month.I have a unlocked HTC sensation 4G a t-mobile smartphone.so do I order a sim card from straight talk?how much is a sim card?can I call and order a sim card and activate the sim for just monthly data?I would appreciate it if someone would please explain my qwestions.

You could get your cellphone activated on Clearwireless if it's available in your area. It works on HTC EVO, and I think it would on sensation... Just google "activate htc evo on clearwireless" to get on the right path... Good luck!

Yes, it does. GSM SIMs and (for example) the SIMs used by Verizon (I don't, know if, Sprint has switched to a SIM based system for their up and coming LTE network) would not be compatible. You CANNOT USE A device like the Sensation on a CDMA network, period.

Sprint uses "integrated SIMs" for their LTE phones, which basically means they still use the same MEID/ESN system. Identical to the old 3G/WiMax system. And yes, you're correct. You can't use a GSM phone on a CDMA network period. You can, however take a hybrid GSM/CDMA phone (like a Droid 2 Global) and get it to work on GSM networks by hacking the radio not to ignore domestic networks like AT&T and T-Mobile.

Escalate it to tier two tech support and ask them to check the towers you are connecting too. It may be a screw up. I had this happen awhile back

100MB sounds like a roaming limit. They made a mistake somewhere and need to fix it. If the person refuses, speak to a manager, or Google how to get to their retentions department (it is saying something when you dial 611).
They are still telling me the same crap. This is ridiculous. Im in a 4G area, but all towers are not tmobile, so even if I'm not roaming I'm roaming?!?! Wow!!! So what's the point of me paying for internet?

File a report with the FCC and demand they allow you out of your contract without an ETF. If the towers in your area no longer belong to T-Mobile (they did say awhile back they were looking into selling towers...IIRC) and you are always roaming and therefore throttled after 100mb than you shouldn't have to pay for more data than that and if they can't provide you the unthrottled speeds after 100mb (that you pay for) they should allow you out of your contract.
(It's what I would do)

If you have a certain rom it will tell you how much you have transfered. Tmobile tried to this with me and while my wife was on the phone with them I took the phone and told the guy he was full of **** and he said that he could tell the areas where I downloaded it from I told him my ROM monitors in and out traffic and it was only at 900MB and I asked him to tell me and he choked and got all mummbly. It is a scam I think because they have this new unlimited plan they want everyone to switch to. Cell companies hate with I call then because I call them out.

[Q] T-Mobile free 2G internet?!

Just wondering why this happens. So today my phone plan ended for T-Mobile the prepaid $50 monthly plan. But to my atonsihment my 2G still works on my phone. Even though it's slow its enough to Facebook message, whatsapp, etc. Why do you think this works? Has it happened with any of you? My phone is currently on custom ROM paranoid android 3.55.

How long has it been? I know sometimes there's just a lag in their service or system and they haven't fully cut you off from their network. I once downgraded from 4G to 2G for a couple months but I had 4G speeds for almost 1 week after the supposed end of my 4G speeds.
Did you end your T-Mobile service or did you just go over your data limit?

Your speeds get throttled after a certain limit is reached. For example, $50 gets you 500mb of high speed internet. You get throttled to 2g after that limit is reached for the month.

No 3G data service during voice call????

http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=2258959&referrerid=5287531
So i found this thread that says S3 and Evo LTE only works data and voice.
is there way to work data and voice same time?
i do a lot calls and i need to check mails and etc.
Not on 3G with the S4, however, voice and LTE work if you have LTE service in your area.

Yea I am rooted on my I9505 but have not figured out how to get access or if there is a way. Ugh sucks figured sprint would at least keep the things that kept me with the galaxy line..it is to the point if you want to enjoy your phone you have to root.

What the heck are you talking about. You're on an international phone. So it shouldn't matter if sprint can't do voice and 3g at the same time.

I drive semi it is more productive when you can look up street view roads that may have weight limits height restrictions as you are calling the company letting then know about when you will arrive.we as drivers only have a certain amount of time to drive a day.thus makes my day that much more productive. Ten extra mins could be whether I make it to the next town or not.

That's not what I am talking about. I don't see why its a concern to you if by the look of it, you don't have a sprint gs4. If you want to be on the internet and phone at the same time. Stay with a gs3.

I do have a gs4 I just passed down my gs3. I never thought they would lose that feature... and I am a sprint customer..

Well dude say you are on sprint. Lol
You said you were on your "rooted i9505". Sprint is SPH-L720. That's why you had me confused.
