Network Vision/LTE - Atlanta/Athens Market

Yeah...if update via ota you'll definitely lose root. I wonder if you need that update to actually get an LTE signal.

 

Definitely not needed to get an lte signal. Now when the evo was in testing it was said to have a connectivity issue and wouldn't maintain an lte signal, which I somewhat proved a month ago when lte was live for a few days in my area where my gnex stayed connected non stop and my evo would drop in and out. It is thought that the latest update may have corrected that even though there was nothing mention in the release notes.

I'm now wondering that exact same thing.

 

Where are you in atlanta exactly? Be as precise as possible.

Do not take any OTA update.Check with your cook rom DEV guy.

 

But I rather have LTE than 3g speed.

 

I only have my phone rooted but still on stock rom. I have not do the HTCDev thing.

 

In 7 months, there will be another new phone out.

between buffington rd and flat shoals rd, south side.. unincorporated fulton

 

Ok, from where flat shoals meets buffington which is right off of i85 there are two towers one just to the south and one just to the north that should have been completed over a month ago so if you are close to 85 then you should be good to go.

I'm right by spur14, south fulton parkway. not as close to 85

 

I am trying to get this as accurate for you as possible, what is the closest intersection from you?

Roosevelt hwy,.

 

The tower closest to where south fulton hwy meets roosevelt isn't going to get upgraded until next month. The next closest two, about two miles away each(each in opposite direction from the intersection), aren't schedule to get upgrades until november. Now the next tower which is around two miles as well is already live, the exact location of that tower is buffington rd and old bill cook. So this should give you an idea of what to expect. If you are south east of south fulton and roosevelt then you should get an lte signal.

Are you using Open Signal Map app?

 

Yah, how do u know this much?

 

Has anyone try the LTE at the ATL airport yet? I will find out on Monday.

Must be sponsor access to maps.

 

Yes, being a premium sponsor you get access to a lot of extra details. A regular sponsor gets a lot extra goodies as well and there are no minimum amount required.

So can any insider see if there will be any LTE towers in cumming (near buford hwy and windermere parkway).

 

When I bought my Evo 4g LTE the lady that sold it to me said probably no LTE this far north of ATL at launch.

I've been able to get on for a minute or two when I'm outside, the speed is ok. Not what I was expecting, but then I lose my connection. I'm in the Jonesboro area just off of Noah's Ark rd on the side close to Tara Blvd. post-1688-0-79700900-1342304799_thumb.png

Bro, you gonna be happy to hear this. It looks like that just about every sprint tower in that area has been upgraded to 4g lte months ago, I am talking as far back as march and april. No reason why you shouldn't get lte very soon.

When i was leaving work this aftwernoon, my GS3 was picking up 4g at the airport. I didn't test because

I was driving. Now when i got home in Morrow, I was picking it up, but no data conntecion. I rebooted and was able to do a few tests using speedtest. The fastest i got so far is 5.37 down ad 1.94 up. That is indoors though.

I'm in Alpharetta, and I haven't gotten it yet. But I'm also running a Jelly Bean port. Is there anyone on Jelly Bean or a custom ROM getting 4G?

 

I got LTE back in May for a long while until they completely blocked it. So i know my tower is upgraded.

    • Was able to install the March 1 Android security patch. Seems slightly more accurate with 5g ca band id, but can not swear by it. Updated google play system update through the software information screen to March 1. *#73# still works. Froze updates waiting on SCP update beta to fix n41 showing as n38.
    • Just installed it. Thanks for the info.  71 mb mar 1st date.
    • There's a permit for a new 47 story building at 205 Montague St in Downtown Brooklyn. The problem is that  T-Mobile eNB 48352 is on the building next door and this new building will block two out of 3 sectors of the site. For reference, the new building will be roughly as tall as 16 Court St which is right across the street. This site is the primary site covering Cadman Plaza so I wonder what the plan is. Will they just try to change sector placement, move to a different building, or will this just speed up the conversion of the Sprint site at 25 Monroe Place?
    • At least not recently.  I think I might have seen this a year ago.  Not Sure.
    • Did they previously hop between n38 and n41 in prior version of SCP, or have you always seen n41 displayed properly?
