I'm on wifi quite a bit, but I wouldn't mind having LTE. They flipped the switch on it here months ago. I'd like to see a little speed boost.

LTE here is about 30 mbps as opposed to 3G which is 2...

Nice. Any idea how much it takes a hit when a bunch of people are on it?

This will most likely be my last android phone.

Holy shit. My browser started freaking out on me this past Saturday. I thought it was just my phone. I found a way around it with the Google search bar. This is my only major problem since introduction day. Going to Verizon tomorrow. Good to know its not just me though...

You must be about to get the major update. I got a popup last night asking to do an update and ignored it. Now it's automatically doing it right meow and of course it's stuck on 5%.

Not to mention Sprints coverage is heinous. I don't care about 4G...I can get it here but I dont use it b/c it's just another drain on the crap battery.

Too true about battery life..... I have a charger in every room, in every vehicle, on my bike....

I seriously have at least 8 chargers.....

Not in our area. It would be nice if 3g would work properly.

Well it got up to 32%, hung there for a good while and not it's at 0%. Battery is now out of the phone.

Thats what sucks about 4g. I can go 2 days without a charge with regular useage. I've gone 3 days without a charger out of town, but with only internet/text/phonecalls on the second and third day.
