I'm thinking I'll just take the Clovis rodeo tower down. I mean, no ones using it. Maybe we can collectively auction it off and bribe Sprint with the earnings. Maybe get a full launch sooner! Surely there's a better use for all that material than a useless 3g tower lol.

I dont see how becoming a customer of the only company that provides service in your area is considered a problem.

 

Do you expect him to use 56k in 2014?

 

Sprint provides the service because they want the customers....that's how it works.

 

Does Sprint offer an unlimited home broadband / fixed wireless / mifi type of service?

Yesterday I was at the sprint store in visalia and I was looking at the galaxy4 phone and it said it was picking up spark network. Was I fooled or is this a reality. The store rep said this was the first time he seen this and said it must have been picking it up. Does anyone know about this

Did you think you were on Spark because of the Spinning Icon?  Or did you actually verify you were on Band 41 in the Engineering screen?  The Spinning Spark LTE icon shows on all Triband Android devices (except Nexus) regardless of LTE band.  Even when not on Spark.

I'm sure hoping that all Clear sites in Visalia are live with Band 41. That would be wonderful.

What was the rep's name? I know a few of them equate the Spark logo thing to Band 41 off the top, but they really don't know.

Great...but how do u get to the engineering screen

I don't remember the dialer codes, but you can access the menus through signal check pro.

CDMA 800 does not require Triband.

The G2 is a Spark device, and thus has only one transmit path. This means you're connected to one technology at a time. When connected to LTE, you're only connected to LTE. No 1x.

    • Mike if you need more Dish data, I have been hunting down sites in western Columbus.  So far just n70 and n71 reporting although I CA all three.
    • Good catch! I meant 115932/119932. Edited my original post I've noticed the same thing lately and have just assumed that they're skipping it now because they're finally able to deploy mmWave small cells.
    • At some point over the weekend, T-Mobile bumped the Omaha metro from 100+40 to 100+90 of n41! That's a pretty large increase from what we had just a few weeks ago when we were sitting at 80+40Mhz. Out of curiosity, tested a site on my way to work and pulled 1.4Gpbs. That's the fastest I've ever gotten on T-Mobile! For those that know Omaha, this was on Dodge street in Midtown so not exactly a quiet area!
    • Did you mean a different site? eNB ID 112039 has been around for years. Streetview even has it with C-band back in 2022 - https://www.google.com/maps/@40.7303042,-73.9610924,3a,24.1y,18.03h,109.66t/data=!3m8!1e1!3m6!1s2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g!2e0!5s20220201T000000!6shttps:%2F%2Fstreetviewpixels-pa.googleapis.com%2Fv1%2Fthumbnail%3Fpanoid%3D2ossx06yU56AYOzREdcK-g%26cb_client%3Dmaps_sv.share%26w%3D900%26h%3D600%26yaw%3D18.027734930682684%26pitch%3D-19.664180274382204%26thumbfov%3D90!7i16384!8i8192?coh=205410&entry=ttu Meanwhile, Verizon's eNB 84484 in Fort Greene has been updated to include C-band and CBRS, but not mmWave. I've seen this a few times now on updated Verizon sites where it's just the CBRS antenna on its own, not in a shroud and without mmWave. Odd.
