Since Android is now on Sprint and Verizon and both networks have expansive 3G networks, the rather adolescent 3G coverage on T-Mobile becomes even more magnified. Luckily, like they have been doing, T-Mobile is tirelessly working on rolling out and expanding their 3G network to cover more Magenta users. Here's the latest:

  • Albany, GA
  • Amarillo, TX
  • Abilene, TX

Considering we've never even heard of these cities (apologies to said cities residents), it looks like the T-Mobile 3G rollout is reaching more obscure areas of the country (relatively speaking, of course). We'd love to know which cities are still without T-Mobile 3G, so please let us know in the comments!

I agree, we need it in Boise. This is a huge Tmobile city. C'mon folks! I'm getting an Android phone next week, thankfully it is WiFi compatible.

3G is defiantly needed for t-mobile in Boise.. Google maps on my android phone compared to my friends Droid is pathetic. His maps load 5x faster :(

The coverage/data connection is horrible in Boise. Do not get T-Mobile in Boise... unless it rolls out 3G.

Castle Rock Colorado. It's in between Denver and Colorado Springs. You would think they would have 3G working between the two biggest cities in Colorado.

Pretty much the entire state of Michigan is without 3G coverage from T-Mobile. With the exception being downtown Detroit and I do mean Downtown.

Springfield, Ohio is without 3G coverage. It's right in between Dayton and Columbus, which are two of the biggest cities in Ohio!

It is all false news...No 3G in Amarillo yet.
I called T-Mobile customer service and they told me they don't have any plans in the near future

Cincinnati OH is showing 3G at the moment.

That "G" is not 3G. It stands for GRPS.
Thats the data service that is even slower than edge, when edge signal is not available. If you get a 3G signal it will actually say "3G". So yeah. Sorry to bring the bad news but that G unfortunately has nothing to do with 3G.

Cincinnati/Northern KY has no 3G. T-Mobile should be extremely embarrassed by this looking at some of the cities that do have coverage. If it weren't for the ETF I would be gone.

So I randomly look at my phone and it magically has 3G. I push a button or two and then it disappears. I lay my phone back down how it was, look at it a few seconds later and I have 3G again..looks like Cincinnati might FINALLY HAVE IT!

All you people are completely confused. 4G if for network cards and not cell phones. Sprint did announce that a few phones will be available sometime in 2010 though, but only in a few select cities.

Its pretty pathetic, I seen a commercial for Sprint yesterday offering 4G! I live in Lexington, Ky and Tmobile doesn't even have 3G here yet! T-Mobile is going to continue losing customers if they don't get up to date and I know I will be switching when my contract is up!

I was told the same thing about 3g being in Tallahassee by the rep. I had the phone ordered before it came out and got it the 1st day about a year and a half ago and he said it would be up by the time I got the phone. I know 3g is expensive but this is terrible and illegal for their reps to be saying things like this!!!

I was told when I bought my g1 that a new 3G tower was being built in Tallahassee, FL. I think he was just telling me that to get me to stay with t-mobile because I have seen nothing about it actually being built. I have always had problems with phone & data coverage here & was considering switching. Pretty shady if you ask me.
