Will T-Mobile have 4G speeds for iPhone 5?
T-Mobile will be selling the iPhone 5 starting April 12th, does that mean that us current T-Mobile iPhone 5 users will start getting 4G LTE coverage? Or will the iPhones sold in April 12th from T-Mobile have a different bandwidth to support existing 4G LTE T-Mobile bandwidths?
If you have the iPhone 5 model A1428 (North American GSM model) then yes you will be able to get LTE. If you have this model iPhone and you have it jailbroken you can get LTE functionality right now without having to lose your jailbreak. Click the link below to my article and it will give you step by step detailed instructions on how to do this. Hope this helps.

All of the other posts are wrong, T-Mobile stated they aren't going to be rolling out LTE until next year because they are still expanding their 4G and since they recently acquired Metro PCS which is CDMA based it will take time to convert that to T-Mobiles network which is HSPA+ and since the iPhone 5 is only LTE and not 4G T-Mobile users with an iPhone 5 will be stuck on 3G and by next year when T-Mobile starts rolling out LTE Verizon, Sprint and AT&T will already have full nationwide LTE coverage and possibly already rolling out a faster network so I don't recommend T-Mobile besides their LTE will be the slowest one compared to Verizon, AT&T or Sprint.
T-Mobile LTE is just starting to roll out, if they have 4G in your area to begin with. The phone itself will generally always use the fastest available data connection if in range.
EDIT: The iPhone 5 is not an LTE only phone actually, if you would look at the tech specs on the Apple website for it.
Oscar's wrong they started rolling out 4G LTE already he's so silly ^^^^
- When does my Straight Talk Uncap your 3G speeds? Hello sorry about the vague question but I have only had Straight Talk for about a month and I want to know when they stop capping your data? What I mean is I wet over my 2GB limit on 3G using my iPhone 4 last month and it says it only allows 2GB of full 3G speeds but that month is already over and it still capping my data? Why? Any help would be good! I just want to know how I could get my full 3G speeds back!

- What are Straight Talk's data speeds? I have bought an unlocked iPhone 5, and I was about to buy the Straight Talk sim, but then I realized that I didn't know their data speeds. I was surprised to learn that NOWHERE do they post their data speeds. I emailed them a week ago, and because of the half-baked customer service, they haven't replied. Anyway, does anyone know what their data speeds are, or at least have experience with them?
- Utorrent slow speeds, the one plan? I'm using the one plan to tether internet to from my iphone 4 to my laptop. All seemed fine to start off with but once i decided to try and download a torrent i discovered that my speed seem to be capped for peer to peer downloads, i was just wondering if anyone else has heard of or experienced anything to do with this as i can't find any articles or post about it online and figured that someone else would of surely posted something if other people experienced the same problem.
