Yes... Sprint LTE speed in most parts of PR is a joke.

My girlfriend has Tmobile and in term of speeds, tmobile destroys Sprint.

 

Here is a speedtest from

Tmobile (Aguadilla). Took the speedtest today near Puente La Victoria 329cf69f77072bc3b772fcd495d8ac70.jpg

This was in Aguadilla marina Sunday on my G4 which is only 2xCA. I forgot to change the server but still a big improvement over B25. Hopefully they speed up the upgrades on the rest of the towers.

Thats Sprint? What place in mayaguez? Do you now what tower you were connected? I would like to test that, im leaving sprint soon but that could give me hope to stay.

That was near the street that goes to Hospital Bella Vista. Near the Balboa electronic shop. Also the same tower covers the Plantillas Mayaguezanas factory.

Doesn't Sprint have a good amount of B41 by now. Wait until they also put the open mobile spectrum to use. Their Galaxy S8 also Supports B13 so hopefully Sprint uses that. With the right amount of towers, 3xca B41 15x15 or 20x20 B25 and, 10x10 B13 there Sprint could kick ass.

I went to Mayaguez near Plaza Colon and got a test of 68 down and 10 up, cell id 258 on b41. That give me enough hope to stay in sprint a little longer. Now need that b41 roll out faster in other towers.

Once Sprint upgrades from open Mobile there they should do way better. B41 and, I've heard they got 30 MHz of C block PC's. If that is all contiguous​ then along with the G block they could do 20x20 B25.

    • My s24 Ultras auto updated to April 1 security patch over night. Not on wi-fi.  Play system remains at March 1. No notice that update occurred on screen.
    • Got the latest update. On my S24 ultra the NR-ARFCN display remains constant (which is inaccurate according to diags) while n41 and 38 toggle back and forth.  I updated then rebooted before testing. Two sims active. My security patch level updated automatically to April 1 before this update. Diags sent while n38 was displaying.
    • 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?
