I know very little about Mosaik. But it will be nice that Sensorly will now be run stateside.

I can remember back when Mosaik Solutions was formerly American Roamer.

Hopefully the become more responsive and further separate out their LTE to make it more accurate.

Separate their LTE to make it more accurate it what way?

 

Since it is based on RSRP, the Sprint results can be rigged by only using B26.  By the same token B41 will be measured as much weaker.  The release notes in indicate attempts to address CA with certain phones.  Using my LG G4 I have yet to see any difference.

It would also be nice to see them weight by how old the data is, or even put a filter that allows you to only show data collected in the last (whatever time interval).  Also giving stronger signals more weight, so it's not diluted by people mapping while indoors or with phones without every band.  Sprint results got diluted because so many people mapped so much when it was just B25, which makes the all-time aggregate signal strength appear weak almost everywhere.  I also don't like that it basically shows you "here's where at least one person ever got a signal, even if 99% of the time you can't get a signal here."  When multiple people map and fail to get LTE on a previously mapped area, it needs to count that against the fluke points and remove coverage from the map.  I think that's a big one: I don't like seeing so much purple on the map where I know no phone on any band can get a usable signal - you might as well use the carrier's own coverage maps at that point. 

 

Basically it's a great service for a casual viewer who wants to get a ballpark idea of coverage for carriers, but the way it was originally coded in many way makes it less accurate over time.  Under new ownership, and depending on how the data was originally collected, I'd love to see them implement a few changes that would make their maps much more accurate/valuable to consumers.

    • 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?
