1X Roaming while EVDO native?


Recommended Posts

This isn't the correct forum for this, but most likely you are roaming with 1x and EV-DO on Verizon's network. 

 

I am not a business account. I think I could only get 1X roaming. By the way, how could I make the image smaller? I probably should post it in general topic or LTE roll out

You're voice is on Verizon, your data is on Sprint. Covered many times before.

 

Edit: You're roaming Voice and Data on Verizon. There have been recent PRL updates.

Really? Now, we can have 3G roaming? :tu:

I'd have to see the latest PRL you're on, know what area you're in when this is happening and etc etc etc etc. We can either decipher it to know for sure or just enjoy that you have it. :2tu:

My Stock PRL is 55019

And it is in DC.

 

*Cough* We can either decipher it to know for sure or just enjoy that you have it. :2tu:*Cough*

So, is it EVDO roaming? Or 1X Roaming?

I have also ran into this but it was on a Sprint tower in an area where Sprint doesn't have tower and it was showing me roaming on my Native network.

I'm pretty sure you can't roam on Verizon's eHRPD so that's likely Sprint's data.  But you are roaming on Verizon's 1x for voice/texting.

 

You're right, you can't.  It will not authenticate on eHRPD and will then reauthenticate on EVDO.

    • 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.
