MetroPCS BYOD Speedtest ONLY!!!

The phone you have is only HSPA+ 21, so the fastest you'll probably get is around 12-15 Mbps. When I had the Lumia 521 (same speed,) I would average 3-6 download and occasionally hit 10 and got 13 once.
 
North Miami area.... I luv u t-metro

Just a question for.you guys....

Did you have your sim registered to your phone or.whatever the process is called?

I reactivated an lg motion metro phone on metro and at first I couldnt even get a mb. After 2 calls 2 customer service and a trip to a corporate store I got it set up properly (I reactivated over the phone initially by dialing *228.) And after the store sorted it all out I was getting 42 download speed according to ookla or whatever its called. Made all the difference.

The Motion did not use a SIM card but rather an UICC card. Either way, Metro makes you register the phone and pair it with the SIM card to function properly on their network.

Max is theoretically 150mbps. Only seen +130mbps though, I think from either Seattle or North Dallas. Yours is tied with the fastest in Florida I've seen because also saw a 105 from Tallahassee and the 103 from Jacksonville.

It does Start around 140s but then it slowly starts going down and levels at 100-115..

Not bad. Since I am constantly updating Roms and such on my phone, I dont have some speedtests saved. Highest DL I have seen was in the 70s. I am very close to you as well. Delaware County.

Yea I saw that with my f6. The 60's is fine with me. Yea you are close. I'm constantly changing the APN's on this one.
 
Very nice. Here is one done with my wife's Amazon Fire Phone on Metro LTE. I took this in Garland, TX (The Wi-Fi symbol you are seeing here is from my phone; I shared her speed test with myself and then viewed it from the web and did a screen shot of my phone)

Depends on where you are. Out on eastern edge of the city I was hitting over 30 up and over 40 down.

It looks like an iPhone, based on the four dots to the left of the MetroPCS carrier name. Any way, that'd be my guess.
 
iphone 6s... after being a nexus user since Galaxy Nexus went with iphone again. Nexus 5X just isn't what i expected and Nexus 6P isnt my type of a form factor. But i hope the next Nexus 5X will a decent upgrade and would surly switch back to pure android. But for now I'll use ios...
