Most likely testing.  Until fiber back haul is installed it will then get accepted  by Sprint and will be live.

I would imagine that the 4g upgrade is complete but the signal not strong enough to keep 4g on so the phone reverts back to 3g. What happens if you go outside your house?

I drove by the Farmersville tower tonight. There is no activity on the Sprint rack. They're doing something, which tonight looked like welding, way down low on the tower where there is no current hardware, from Sprint or otherwise.

 

Sorry.

Sites with 800 CDMA acceptance will later get LTE upgrades. The order that sites are upgraded varies widely. Some get LTE first, then 1900 3G, then 800 1x. Others start with 3G upgrades, then LTE, then 800. And so forth.

I can't speak for other users in the LCV, but I don't care too much about what is going on up in the UCV. They got 34 updates this week; I'd say that's pretty impressive.

I do cause i live in Modesto and she lives in at Atwater and as of now i havent seen any 4G yet in Modesto.

The 34 updates were 3G and 4G updates in Reno only, I believe. I have a huge vested interest in LCV because I visit my family often in Tulare/Visalia.

    • Your referring to the $25.00 a month Infinite Unlimited plan?  I don't see any other plans on there even cheaper than that on their website.  I was looking at the Motorola 2023 Edge fwiw as well for $10.00 a month. 
    • A heavy n41 overlay as an acquisition condition would be a win for customers, and eventually a win for T-Mobile as that might be enough to preclude VZW/AT&T adding C-Band for FWA due to spreading the market too thinly (which means T-Mobile would just have local WISPs/wireline ISPs as competition). USCC spacing (which is likely for contiguous 700 MHz LTE coverage in rural areas) isn't going to be enough for contiguous n41 anyway, and I doubt they'll densify enough to get there.
    • Boost Infinite with a rainbow SIM (you can get it SIM-only) is the cheapest way, at $25/mo, to my knowledge; the cheaper Boost Mobile plans don't run on Dish native. Check Phonescoop for n70 support on a given phone; the Moto G 5G from last year may be the cheapest unlocked phone with n70 though data speeds aren't as good as something with an X70 or better modem.
    • Continuing the USCC discussion, if T-Mobile does a full equipment swap at all of USCC's sites, which they probably will for vendor consistency, and if they include 2.5 on all of those sites, which they probably will as they definitely have economies of scale on the base stations, that'll represent a massive capacity increase in those areas over what USCC had, and maybe a coverage increase since n71 will get deployed everywhere and B71 will get deployed any time T-Mobile has at least 25x25, and maybe where they have 20x20. Assuming this deal goes through (I'm betting it does), I figure I'll see contiguous coverage in the area of southern IL where I was attempting to roam on USCC the last time I was there, though it might be late next year before that switchover happens.
    • Forgot to post this, but a few weeks ago I got to visit these small cells myself! They're spread around Grant park and the surrounding areas, but unfortunately none of the mmwave cells made it outside of the parks along the lake into the rest of downtown. I did spot some n41 small cells around downtown, but they seemed to be older deployments limited to 100mhz and performed poorly.
