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.

    • https://www.lightreading.com/6g/5g-advanced-arrives-with-3gpp-s-release-18 Wonder how long until T-Mobile moves on this? My guess is some by the Galaxy S25 in January or February.
    • Kind of amazing that T-Mobile is still holding onto that speed title despite Verizon all but killing off lowband 5G on their network. While Verizon is mostly being evaluated on mmWave and C-band performance, T-Mobile and AT&T's average 5G speeds include their massive lowband 5G networks that are significantly slower.

    • Yup. Very true. We were originally on an Everything Data 1500 Plan, which got Unlimited Minutes thanks to Marcelo's "Loyalty Benefits" offer. We then switched to Unlimited Freedom (with the Free HD add-on that Sprint originally wanted $20/month per line for.... remember that?) because the pricing was better with "iPhone for Life", vs. the "Loyalty Credit" for staying on a Legacy Plan. After that, I ran the numbers and switched us over to Sprint MAX, especially for the international travel benefits. There's absolutely no reason for us to switch to Go5G Plus or Go5G Next if we're going to do BYOD by purchasing from Apple/Samsung/Google directly as we've been doing. These new plans aren't priced for current customers to switch to. They're priced for new customers, where they throw in a free line, etc. It's gone from "Uncarrier" to "Carrier". What a shame.
    • Strange business model that they keep around all these pricing plans. 1000s of plans per carrier is reportedly not uncommon.  Training customer support must be a nightmare. Even MVNOs have legacy plans. A downside of their contract mentality I guess. Best to change contracts during a recession. But then all carriers try to squeeze out legacy plan benefits as they grow old.
