Athens, GA LTE

This must be something sprint injected in the aosp code for effected phone on ics because its not present in cm9 on my nexus s 4g. My nexus s 4g accepts my msl and its on 4.0.4. That could be a big problem. Maybe today's supposedly update for the sprint galaxy nexus fixes it.

Yes, Sprint doesn't know what it is. They insist using the MSL #, which doesn't work.

 

 

 

Yes. Nothing comes up as the Lock Code. Me and hundreds of other hackers have tried every conceivable code there is all to no avail. At least, so far. :(

Try just typing "getprop" without the "RIL.MSL" then scroll for a five digit number.

Root is required for me as I use Roam control too much and several other root only apps.

 

+1 for roam control not to mention titanium backup is a must as well as wifitether. Root is a must for me as well.

I found some dialer codes for the GSM version

All dialer codes are prefixed by *#*# and end in #*#*

Don't know if any of those would help or if they work on Sprint's version.

Just curious, with LTE active, have you noticed any significant battery drain? I know LTE is supposed to run off Sprint's 1900Mhz spectrum, so theoretically there shouldn't be since it doesn't require the activation of a separate antenna like WiMax, but I'd like to hear it first hand...

I don't think that it has that much to do with activating another antenna. If the phone is searching for LTE connection, or searching for a stronger connection, it will use battery, regardless of the antenna used. 1x and EV-DO are both on 1900mhz now and even if the phone is connected to 1x, it burns through the battery looking for EV-DO and stronger connections of 1x.

I live near Athens, GA and am there quite often. I am excited about the 4G LTE towers that Sprint has put up and am looking forward to fast speeds once it is turned on.

Per this map, there is a tower practically sitting right on top of my house. :D

No. Work to start in July and 4G On-Air date in August for that site.

well im happy to report AT04XC506 is still dishing out LTE ;-)

 

It would be AWESOME if you could speedtest using the sprint speedtest server in atlanta.

 

I bet that would get the absolute fastest speeds possible.

 

www.sprint.com/speedtest

 

edit: if you haven't installed adobe flash from the google play store, you won't be able to run the test

it didn't, i moved on to another server.

 

 

Interesting. You would think Sprint would offer the fastest speeds. Thanks for the info. What were the speeds like on the sprint.com/speedtest site?

was in atlanta all day yesterday all over east side, and stone mountain area... not a single tick of LTE.

 

Yeah, visited a few areas around the city and nothing yet. There towers close to my house as well and nothing yet either.

    • 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.
    • Drove out into the country today.  Dish stuck to my phone like glue. At least -120 rsrp. Likely only good for phone calls (should have tested.) It then switched to T-Mobile. Getting back on Dish was another issue. I am used to dragging out coverage so I expected a few miles, but had to drive at least 10 miles towards a Dish site. Airplane mode, which worked for Sprint, did nothing. Rebooting did nothing. Finally got it to change over about 2 miles from the site by manually setting the carrier to Dish then it had great reception. Sprint used to have a 15 minute timeout but I did not have the patience today.  Previously I did a speed test on Dish out in the country at the edge of Dish coverage. My speeds were 2g variety. Dish has really overclocked some of these sites. Seen rssp readings in the 50s. Would have called them boomer sites with Sprint but much  more common with Dish.
