I was on lunch today at tmobile checking out their plan prices. One of the reps came up and asked what service you on? I said Sprint and she immediately went on this rant on how sprint is slow, ouch

First off. You need to read up a bit more before you start complaining about speeds.Sprints 5x5 has a maximum theoretical output of 37.5mbps DL and ~ 14 mbps UL. The theoretical maximum is the absolut

Upload LTE Discovery shot, it will at least bring up the EARFCN.

I have it on my 6p never seen it pop up before though. I've looked! But if I've missed something in the app, please share.

It comes from the Nexus 6P thread.  That is not my screenshot.  You know my policy on ginormous screenshots.

Im not sure if you need to purchase the app or not, I do see in-app purchase in the store info. Its been soo long since ive had this application im not sure. Another option would be to look at someone else's device.

 

 

Damn you N6P!! Damn you to hell!  :wall:

So after a morning walk I can tell that most of sprint LTE sites have a second Carrier live and are aggregated. The clear LTE sites in the area are still running a single LTE carrier currently. This all seems to be centered around 10463 Bronx area. So it appears to be a cluster launch cuz I walked in to 10468 and none of the carriers had a LTE second Signal live.

So did yall figure out which EARFCN is 1st carrier or no?

 

GCI ending 01 02 03 = 1st carrier

GCI ending #9 #A #B = 2nd carrier

My site is 41276 for the 1st haven't seen the other second carrier as I need another phone to check. I should have an iphone to confirm in moment once I'm back in my area.

Took a drive through Jerome avenue (184th st Fordham, Kingsbridge and Bedford) found some pretty significant speed increases. Unfortunately, I'm also on an N6P and could not verify whether I had CA or not. But simply observing the massive speed increases and SCP info I can say with confidence that CA is live in some of those locations (places that were 3mb-5mbs average turned into 40-60mbs)

Shh, do not tell the others about the band 41 second carrier.  They can stay on the slowed down first carrier, and you can have 2x CA all to yourself.

Gonna grab my moms GS6 and check it out..

 

Sad..

I wasn't up that way personally. Did u ever get back to check? I was over by moshulu and Pelham myself and didn't see any difference in PCI in the area.

 

Quick edit...

 

Looking at my log I did pick up a few sites it seems.

How?

 

With LTE Discovery it seems the feature is automatically enabled if you have root (and grant it root permission when it asks). I took this screenshot earlier on my Nexus 6P

I also submitted a pull request adding the feature to Signal Detector: https://github.com/lordsutch/Signal-Strength-Detector/pull/1/files I can send you the APK if you don't want to wait for lordsutch to accept the patch.

The interface that's used to fetch it also returns the EARFCN for the neighbor cells. So it's possible to display that as well. The only app currently doing this is CellMapper: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=cellmapper.net.cellmapper&hl=en
