Finally couldn't take it anymore I had to switch to Verizon. I was get one bar with sprint at my house with 1x or my phone saying no service even with the dumb airave thing. Now plus the coverage with sprint isn't that great. I noticed a huge difference with Verizon worth the 20$ more a month. I still love sprint had them for 6 years but couldn't take it anymore maybe once they get there act together I'll go back.

 

town?

Anyone experiencing serious service disruption? I'm in downtown Meriden and my iPhone 6 has been stating "No Service for 5 minutes at a time before going to 3G, which can't establish a data connection.

 

The Hanover tower gave me 3 bars of band 41, but nothing today....

There's a big outage on the north east.

No need for the sarcasm. The tower is B41 only and hasn't gotten bands 25/26, let alone upgraded 3G

 

If that's B41 only it's probably a Clearwire tower so you may not see Sprint NV there. In my market there are a bunch of Clearwire only sites.

I received an email from Sprint roughly 2 years ago. Plan was for: B41 and 800Mhz. Looking back on it, likely meant 800 for voice.

 

Anxiously awaiting NGN

Some of my family still has sprint and they are saying that sprint is sprinting down hill in Meriden bad. I call them and there calls always drop. I have to say I am very glad I switched to Verizon. I am still routing for sprint I had them for 5 years and try to wait just couldn't anymore. I give people credit for staying with them lol

Sprint in CT pretty much stinks -- unless you are downtown Hartford or Danbury.

 

But quality of service really sucks.

 

 

Agreed -- I have been on vzw for months and zero issues and I haven't ran a speed test since lol.

Odd, I honestly have quite the opposite experience everywhere, except, as mentioned above, Meriden. Downtown is abysmal, I concede that.

Admittedly I don't spend much time in CT but when I drive through on my way home from Boston, the only place where I don't have LTE is near the MA/CT border by Nipmuck state forest and Bigelow Hollow State Park.

 

When I went to Yale in February, I had LTE everywhere and it was fast.

Service in Meriden is awful. One example is the corner of Britannia st. And Colony St. One bar of 1x, calls are choppy and that's pretty common in the town.

    • 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?
