I can catch a LTE signal in the area (south burbs of Chicago) but it's spotty at the moment

Those who ain't feeling the EVO LTE...root and unlock an install CM10. For me it was an easy choice to do the unlock because I'm up for an upgrade in May anyways so if it hard bricked or some other shyt I could care less.

And I learned to let the WiMax thing go. They wanted to be the first ones on the 4G wave and the made a mistake. Hesse is trying. I'll give him that. Stop putting shytty phones in your lineup though...

I keep updating my phone when the updates drop, have no idea if/when I'll be able to root it. Dunno what hboot I'm on. If I root this I ain't doing no S-ON. gotta be S-OFF.

If you have the GS3, then you were on the new LTE network.

There are some things you can do to determine how strong of a signal you are getting also. I'll link you when I get the chance...

If it turns on its not a brick.

If it turns on, you have a chance to bring it back.
