*Sigh*

 

So, you still have an iPhone 4 or 4S? I can't lie, I feel really bad those of you that do. But, you're real people too, so I figured you guys could use a thread also.

 

Feel free to discuss what it's like to only be on EVDO all the time (without complaining  :tu:), what you think it'll be like when you decide to get an LTE capable smartphone (maybe you'll soon be moving to the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus User Thread? Or the 5 and 5S thread? ;) ), any problems you're having, how much you (somehow :D ) love your phone, etc. etc.

 

Discuss!

What about the 3 and 3GS? I bet those are still floating around.

Don't push your luck there. Those aren't Sprint compatible. The 4 was, although it was for only a little period of time.

Oh man. When the 4s came out on sprint, I was so excited. My first iPhone. And I absolutely freaking loved it. The 4s is still my favorite iPhone design to date. I do like the 6, but something about the glass back made me love the phone even more.

I loved my 4 when it came out. The glass back was awesome. Antennagate wasn't though. :/ I didn't get the 4S since I had just signed up with Sprint earlier that year, and wasn't interested in the extra line.

That was why I didn't make a thread for them. Since we're a Sprint oriented site, I only included Sprint compatible models :)

My uncle still has one of these on AT&T ... must be painfully slow!

My 3GS died last month. The battery blew up like a balloon. It was sad.

My son's 4s just recently started really poor connection speeds on the cellular network.  So much so that downloads are impossible.

 

I've been searching the web to see if there was anything but could only find information from 2 years ago.

 

What a pain.

Yeah, I thought I should try that.    This seemed like the right place to post...

 

He has a 4s because he's 14 and doesn't really need data that much.    Perhaps in another year or so we'll upgrade him to LTE.

For everything else, there's wifi

      Definite usage quirks in hunting down these sites with a rainbow sim in a s24 ultra. Fell into a hole yesterday so sent off to T-Mobile purgatory. Try my various techniques. No Dish. Get within binocular range of former Sprint colocation and can see Dish equipment. Try to manually set network and everybody but no Dish is listed.  Airplane mode, restart, turn on and off sim, still no Dish. Pull upto 200ft from site straight on with antenna.  Still no Dish. Get to manual network hunting again on phone, power off phone for two minutes. Finally see Dish in manual network selection and choose it. Great signal as expected. I still think the 15 minute rule might work but lack patience. (With Sprint years ago, while roaming on AT&T, the phone would check for Sprint about every fifteen minutes. So at highway speed you could get to about the third Sprint site before roaming would end). Using both cellmapper and signalcheck.net maps to hunt down these sites. Cellmapper response is almost immediate these days (was taking weeks many months ago).  Their idea of where a site can be is often many miles apart. Of course not the same dataset. Also different ideas as how to label a site, but sector details can match with enough data (mimo makes this hard with its many sectors). Dish was using county spacing in a flat suburban area, but is now denser in a hilly richer suburban area.  Likely density of customers makes no difference as a poorer urban area with likely more Dish customers still has country spacing of sites.

      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.
