what city are you in?

 

[pdmonkey11]

Boca Raton, fl they say that we have 4G here but I've never seen it

You have to first enable LTE by going to settings > more settings > Mobile networks > Network mode

Also, Sprint's coverage maps do not accurately represent where you will get LTE.

That and you might be in a dead spot in the city. Not all towers have lte transceivers on them.

Aight thanks for the help I think they just don't have it where im at but are there any themes yet for the sprint gs3 I'm currently running the blazer rom and is there anyway to get group messaging without go launcher or the other group me app

You have 4G as far as WiMAX goes, but LTE hasn't fully rolled out just yet. You'll likely not be seeing it that far south for quite some time. If I were in your shoes, I would pay big attention to Community Blog List - Sprint 4G Rollout Updates for more details as time goes on.

that is if you have a wimax capable device....

Of course. I probably should have specified, which we all know by now are no longer in production. Some things I just feel are assumed lol.

Fair enough. That's a great link you shared tho!! Helpful indeed (despite it having an iphone on its main page when I went there... now I feel dirty LoL!!!!)
